Chapter 328 Yan Mengwan goes down the mountain
Inside the No. 1 alchemy room.
"Where did this wild child come from?" Lei Siyu glanced at him coldly.
At this time, Xia Cao, who had changed into a new set of clothes and was looking around curiously, was frightened by this look and quickly hid in Chuntao's arms.
In fact, she felt that there was no need to burn the clothes. They were new clothes specially prepared for her by the black market when they participated in the auction. She had only worn them for a few days on the road.
Seeing this, Wang Qiye responded, "Her name is Xia Cao, and she is a new maid that Duanmu Lan bought from the black market. This front hall is so big, I'm afraid Chuntao won't be able to handle it alone in the future."
When Lei Siyu heard that it was Duanmu Lan's maid, she looked away with disgust and ignored her. Hu Mingyue also just glanced at her indifferently, and her cousin didn't even look at her. She naturally wouldn't care about a little maid.
Xia Cao poked her head out of Chuntao's arms and saw several beautifully dressed maids staring at her with hostility. She was full of doubts and didn't know why. Fortunately, Chuntao, who was holding her, also came from the black market, which comforted her young heart.
Wang Qiye was afraid that Lei Siyu might misunderstand, so he quickly explained: "Don't look at her young age. As long as she tastes a herb, she can accurately know how much medicinal value it has. This child is extremely talented. If she can prepare a perfect pill in the future, it can increase the success rate of the pill."
"I know." Lei Siyu said impatiently. Wang Qiye saw that she was not interested, so he said no more.
Xia Cao has settled down here. Although everyone seems to dislike her, she doesn't care at all. Because she knows that she still has Chuntao. In this strange environment, Chuntao is her only warmth and support. With Chuntao by her side, she feels that she has a home, and what does it matter if others don't like her?
……
In front of the tea table.
"Wang Qiye, I'm here today to return your fifth-grade alchemy furnace." After saying that, Yan Mengwan slowly took out an alchemy furnace from the storage bag.
Although Wang Qiye was prepared in his heart, he still couldn't help but sigh. Now that Yan Mengwan has returned the alchemy furnace, it is obvious that she wants to completely sever ties with him. "What about the five furnaces of fourth-level elixirs?"
Before Yan Mengwan responded, a young man in brocade clothes beside her saluted first, with a smile as bright as the sun on his face. "One furnace finally exploded, but it became four furnaces."
Wang Qiye nodded with satisfaction. Yan Mengwan finally entered the ranks of fourth-level alchemists. With this accumulation, I believe she will be able to refine fourth-level pills more smoothly in the future.
"I came here for another thing this time, which is to entrust the three furnaces of fourth-level pills that I will refine later to you." Yan Mengwan's face was not happy, and her tone was light.
"When do you plan to go down the mountain?" Wang Qiye didn't expect that she would leave in such a hurry that she didn't even care about the results of the three furnaces of pills.
Yan Mengwan opened her red lips and said softly, "Tomorrow morning."
Wang Qiye nodded, took out four fourth-level alchemy furnaces that he had prepared long ago from his storage bag, and placed them in front of her. He had originally planned to give them all to her, but now he only gave away one. "Just send someone to deliver it to you later. This alchemy furnace will be your wedding gift."
Yan Mengwan did not take it. "This is too expensive. I can't take it. My fourth-level alchemy furnace has exploded several times. How can I exchange it with yours that has never exploded? You should wait until the three furnaces of elixirs are ready, and then ship them to the Four Directions Region and return them to me."
"It's too troublesome to transport it back and forth. Just use the herbs in the three alchemy furnaces to make up the difference."
"Then it would be disrespectful to refuse." Hao Jing waved his hand, and the four alchemy furnaces all went into his storage bag.
Yan Mengwan rolled her eyes at him. Seeing that things had come to this point, it was not appropriate to say anything more.
Wang Qiye then looked straight at the pretty boy, thinking to himself, it seems that apart from his cultivation level of the third realm, he is not completely useless.
There seemed to be nothing wrong with his identity, status, appearance, and strength. He and Yan Mengwan, a handsome man and a beautiful woman, seemed like a perfect match.
Hao Jing extended his hand and bowed, saying politely: "Brother, I am shameless and call you my junior brother. If you have time to pass by Sifang Territory in the future, please come and stay for a while."
Wang Qiye responded, "I'm afraid I can't go to your wedding. I hope you won't blame me."
Sifang Domain and Lingxi Valley are separated by thirteen domains, and the distance is tens of millions of miles. Just going there once takes more than a year by flying boat. The last time Hao Jing rushed back to Lingxi Valley in three months, he paid a huge price and used several cross-domain teleportation arrays to achieve it.
Hao Jing was full of joy and said generously, "It's good as long as the intention is there."
Wang Qiye said sadly: "Then I will see you off tomorrow morning."
"Then we'll take our leave first." Yan Mengwan stood up with an elegant posture.
Hao Jing originally wanted to sit for a while longer, but when he saw Yan Mengwan stand up, he had to stand up as well.
"Goodbye." Wang Qiye stood up and his gaze once again fell seriously on Yan Mengwan, who was wearing a green lotus skirt in front of him, his eyes full of complex emotions.
Not long after, several attendants brought in three alchemy furnaces with fire underneath.
Wang Qiye ordered them to place the alchemy furnace in the smaller alchemy room on the left.
These were all presentable items that Senior Sister Yan bought from the contract market. Wang Qiye planned to place the three furnaces in his grocery store as a storefront after the three furnaces of elixirs were ready.
After getting used to the fifth-level alchemy furnace, to be honest, I find it a little bit difficult to get used to using the fourth-level alchemy furnace to refine pills.
Now the two of them have one divine weapon, five sixth-grade alchemy furnaces, and thirteen fifth-grade alchemy furnaces, which can just meet the needs of alchemy.
As the time of using the artifact increased, Wang Qiye became more and more dependent on it. This artifact was really like using an arm, and in just a few months, Wang Qiye felt that he could no longer live without it.
……
The next day.
In front of the mountain gate of Qingzhu Peak.
The morning light was just beginning to shine, and the faint golden light sprinkled on the earth, adding a touch of sadness to the parting scene. The breeze blew gently, bringing a hint of coolness, as if it was also feeling sorry for the people who were about to leave.
"Take care along the way."
Wang Qiye walked forward slowly, opened his arms, his eyes full of reluctance and concern.
Yan Mengwan looked at the person in front of her and smiled sweetly, but that smile was filled with endless sorrow. She also opened her arms, and the two of them hugged each other tightly.
At this moment, time seemed to stand still and everything around became blurry.
Perhaps this release will last a lifetime.
The two dared only to hug each other tightly at this moment of separation, and each other's heartbeats were clearly audible, as if they were expressing those unspeakable feelings. How much they wished that time could stay at this moment forever, so that they would never be separated again.
However, no matter how reluctant they were, the two eventually separated.
Duanmu Lan watched this scene quietly, her heart full of emotion. She walked forward and gently gave Yan Mengwan a hug, with thousands of words in this hug.
When it was Ye Lingxi's turn, the two of them hugged each other tightly, unable to control their tears any longer, and finally burst into tears.
Their cries echoed in the wind, like a sad melody, telling the pain of parting. The rustling of leaves seemed to be sighing for their departure.
The mountains in the distance were looming in the mist, as if silently witnessing this farewell.
After this separation, they don't know when they will see each other again, and the road ahead is full of unknowns, but they all know that this is inevitable in life. They can only bury this reluctance and longing deep in their hearts and bravely face the challenges of the future.
The mountain breeze blew gently, bringing a refreshing coolness. Hao Jing gently took off his cloak and carefully put it on Yan Mengwan's green dress.
She turned around, a gentle light flashing in her eyes, and nodded gently at him.
Wang Qiye stood aside, watching them, feeling quite envious.
Looking at Yan Mengwan's complexion again, it was probably because she had just cried and vented all her accumulated emotions. Or maybe she finally chose to let it go and her mind was calm. At this moment, her face showed a touch of brilliance, and she finally recovered some of her former complexion.
Yan Mengwan finally left.
She and Hao Jing waved to the crowd again, and then left two figures walking away. They crossed the mountain gate and walked slowly down the mountain along the winding mountain road.
Wang Qiye waved his hands vigorously, his eyes following the woman in the green skirt closely, until the beautiful figure disappeared, then he slowly put down his arms.
First it was Ma Gan, then Li Erhu, Ji Rulanxue, and now Yan Mengwan. All of them left one by one.
Some people are destined to be just passers-by in life, and Wang Qiye has long understood this.
However, when the day of departure comes, the reluctance and sadness in his heart still surge like a tide, and he still cries.
The mountain wind was still blowing, as if telling the stories of parting, and the leaves were rustling, as if seeing off the departing people. Wang Qiye stood there quietly, looking at the direction they left, his heart filled with emotion and longing.
"They have gone far away. Let's go back too." Soft words echoed in the mountain breeze. At some point, only a quiet woman and a short-haired young man were left in front of the mountain gate.
Wang Qiye slowly turned his head and his eyes fell on the woman in green clothes and skirt again. She stood there quietly, like a beautiful painting.
Some people have left, leaving behind endless longing, while some people are still around and are worth cherishing and protecting.
At this moment, he longed to give her a warm hug, but when he thought about the possibility that his actions would cause another quarrel between the two of them, he resisted the urge and nodded gently. "Well, let's go back too."
Although the words were light, they were firm. They turned around and walked slowly towards the mountain gate, their figures gradually disappearing in the quiet mountains.
The wind was still blowing gently, and only the mountain gate remained standing.
