The wife of the city lord put away the broad-backed knife in her hand and folded her hands on her abdomen. She looked like a young but elegant lady.
"Husband, you have wronged me. How could I watch our son die? It was just an accident."
"An accident happened under your watch?" The city lord almost said this through gritted teeth.
The city lord's wife smiled and stroked the fox fur ball hanging on her head, the smile on her face was very sweet and gentle.
"Husband, you are joking. How could I watch our son die? The accident happened so fast that I didn't expect it."
How could the wife of the city lord admit that she would not save him? She is the wife of the city lord. She can be gentle, kind, and ignorant of worldly affairs, or she can be ambitious and seek for the throne at every step.
But he must not be a person who harms the heirs of the Zheng family. After all, the ancestors of the Zheng family are not dead. Even if the city owner changes, Ancheng will still be the Ancheng of the Zheng family.
The wife of the city lord is afraid, so there are some things that she cannot admit.
As for the city lord, he knew that the vicious woman in front of him did this, but it was useless for him to know because he couldn't fuck her!
The city lord was also afraid that this woman would turn against the rat, so he would kill him without hesitation. Even if the ancestor would avenge him later, he would still be dead!
So after the two were in a stalemate for a while, the city lord finally took a step back.
"I am really sad about the death of God. After all, he is my only child... Madam, my husband is in a bad mood. I wonder if Madam can agree to my husband's request?"
"My husband's words are really embarrassing to me. How could I not obey my husband?" These words were so false that the city lord almost couldn't control his expression. On the other hand, the city lord's wife who said such words frowned lightly.
It seemed that he was aggrieved by the words of the city lord.
Her words were so sincere, but she sounded extra sincere.
"...No matter how rare a gift from heaven is, it is just a bastard. If we can have a legitimate son, I think he must be extremely talented and his identity will be more legitimate."
The city lord wanted to give birth to an heir for Mrs. Liu, even in his wildest dreams.
It's not out of any love, it's just that he wants to kill the Liu family legitimately.
It is harmful to a female cultivator's body and cultivation to give birth to a child, and she is even the weakest when giving birth. As long as arrangements are made properly, Mrs. Liu will definitely die of dystocia!
However, the city lord's wife is not stupid either.
Giving birth to a member of the Zheng family bloodline will indeed make her position in Ancheng more stable, and will make her plan to replace the Zheng family as the lord of Ancheng city smoother.
But these benefits are like honey coated with poison. It looks sweet and tempting, but actually you will die if you try it!
The city lord's wife's eyebrows widened, as if she was really moved by what the city lord said, and there was a hint of shyness on her face.
"Seriously, my husband, how can you say such a thing in public."
The city lord's wife seemed unaware of the city lord's murderous intention, acting like a little woman, but both of them knew that no matter how the city lord's wife behaved, the matter of childbearing was still in the hands of the female cultivator.
If the city lord's wife is unwilling, even if the city lord works hard day and night, it will be in vain.
The city lord wanted to get an accurate answer from the city lord's wife, so he asked again and again, but the city lord's wife used her shyness to fool her.
As for the city lord's intention to trouble Mo You, the city lord's wife also stopped him. At least Mo You will be safe tonight.
…
…
Mo You was watching the contest between the city lord and the city lord's wife intently, and Su Qian came back at this time.
As soon as Su Qian came in, she took the dried fruit in her hand and asked Mo You.
"Junior sister, are you sure you bought the medicinal materials from the building?"
Mo You raised his eyes and glanced at Su Qi'an, which made Su Qi'an feel a little discouraged.
Su Qian also knew that her question was a bit silly. Mo You had not left under her nose the whole time. When she bought the elixir just now, he followed her and watched the whole process.
It was precisely because of watching the whole process that Su Qian felt particularly frustrated.
He sat back down next to Mo You, and then gave Mo You the dried fruit in his hand.
"It's a pistachio..." Su Qi'an thought that the waiter in the building was ignorant and sold the crust as a pistachio.
But when he excitedly planned to pick it up, he discovered that the pistachios sold in the building were pistachio nuts, not crusts.
Su Qian sighed, then took out the crust Mo You gave her, looked at it carefully, and said helplessly.
"This thing may have been mixed in accidentally. After all, the earth's crust is so rare, how could there be so much..."
Mo You broke open the tangxin fruit that Su Qi'an handed to him, and then threw one piece into his mouth.
Yeah, the crisp mint flavor is great.
Su Qian stayed with Mo You and watched her refining the pill.
Mo You didn't have any other fancy methods when refining elixirs, such as elixir formulas or concentrating on the elixir furnace. Even while she was refining elixirs here, she could concentrate on kneading the clay cauldron on the other side, and then opened two more furnaces!
She seemed to be very casual when refining the elixirs. She casually broke off a piece of the elixir and threw it into the cauldron. After throwing it, she opened fire and let them work on their own, which made Su Qi'an feel a little unconfident.
Is refining alchemy so easy? What about his previous failures?
When Su Qi'an saw that Mo You's nonsense-like alchemy method could actually produce elixirs, and they were all high-grade elixirs, Su Qi'an's eyes turned red with envy!
"How did you do this? Teach me!"
Mo You collected the elixir and prepared to refine the second batch. After hearing Su Qi'an's shameless question, he did not hide his secrets, but naturally slowed down the movements of his hands, and then began to tell him about refining the foundation-building elixir.
process.
Then Su Qian listened to Mo You talking while breaking it.
"This one costs three taels and one yuan... This one costs half a yuan... This one costs five taels and one yuan... This one costs seven taels and three yuan..."
The amount Mo You said was accurate, but the method of breaking it was a little casual, which made Su Qian begin to doubt the accuracy of the measurement of the elixirs thrown into the alchemy furnace.
After throwing away the elixir and opening the elixir fire, Mo You broke off the remaining two clay cauldrons to hold the elixir while explaining it to Su Qi'an.
"When the fire is on, you have to use the seventh trick first... You should know about the elixir trick, the seventh trick of the elixir trick."
"What kind of alchemy are you talking about?" There are many kinds of alchemy in the world of cultivation. It is a secret that is not passed down in the inheritance of many alchemists. Even the few sets of popular products circulating on the market are not expensive to learn.
Philippines.
Mo You couldn't tell the name of the elixir, so he could only explain it differently.
"...It is to let the elixir in the alchemy furnace boil without losing any water. After the elixir boils out the water, the manual method is changed to boiling. Until the elixir is completely boiled, it is ground in the Biandanjue.
After grinding, impurities are removed..."
Mo You told Su Qi'an a lot in detail. She even told Su Qi'an in detail about the pharmacology of the foundation-building pill formula. If the elixir in the prescription is not found, what elixir can be used instead...
…
Mo You spoke in great detail, but those who listened were confused.
At first, Su Qian knew what Mo You was going to say, but after Mo You started talking about the pharmacological knowledge, he switched to the listening mode.
When Mo You talked about how to replace the elixirs in the elixir, Su Qian couldn't understand it at all!
The fragrance of the medicine lingered, and for the first time, Su Qi'an, who was in the Nascent Soul stage, experienced great terror from Mo You, who was in the small Qi refining stage!
This was the pressure from the teacher. At this moment, Su Qian only felt that he was the last scumbag in the school. Facing the soul questions from the teacher, he was so stiff that he did not dare to raise his head!
"￥&&￥#@%&*... Do you understand? You can make a furnace and let me see."
