The stone hall was quiet except for Lin Xi's cough on the mud floor and Jiang Xiaoyi's heavy breathing at the entrance of the hall.

Jiang Xiaoyi wanted to see how Lin Xi practiced, but all he saw was shocking and unimaginable.

He and his friends and classmates from the Tiangong Department were very aware of the dangers of this spear formation. None of them who had come in several times could persist for more than eighty steps, so they decided to give up practicing here first.

And choose someone to fight.

If you can't even defeat a person face to face, let alone want to kill in a crowd. Their idea is very simple and very reasonable.

But Lin Xi's performance completely subverted his imagination. The bronze door seemed to be almost within reach of Lin Xi... and Lin Xi hadn't tried his best, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to enter the stone palace every day.

Practice.

Looking at Lin Xi who was slowly turning back, he couldn't help but said in a daze: "How on earth did you do that?"

"Silly boy... I've actually done it twice in front of you, but you don't know it."

Under the silver mask, Lin Xi, who had actually endured two tortures, looked extremely pale, but naturally she couldn't tell Jiang Xiaoyi what she was thinking. She coughed a few times, letting go of the pain from being stabbed in her chest and abdomen.

After cutting it off, he simply said: "I think it's best if no one knows about it."

Jiang Xiaoyi, who was standing at the entrance of the hall, took a breath, and then his solemn voice sounded in the empty hall, "I understand...I swear on my life."

…

Wen Xuanyu walked into the yellow wall. Because he suffered a lot of damage from his training in the direct spear formation yesterday, he was stumbling today and it was very difficult.

As a spiritual genius who is destined to be exposed to the real level of power in the future, as the only son of the Wen family, his time is much tighter than anyone else. However, because of the marks of the spear stabbing yesterday, even though he knew that his body would be damaged today.

The situation was such that he could no longer enter the stone palace to practice, so he still wasted a lot of time and rushed over.

There was some darkness in the stone palace, and Wen Xuanyu squinted his eyes slightly, trying to see more clearly.

What made his pupils shrink was that he saw obvious marks of spears piercing the ground on the ground not far from the bronze back door.

After being silent for more than ten breaths, Wen Xuanyu made a decision. He leaned down on the ground and slowly twisted towards the bronze back door.

Suddenly, his body shook violently, and he let out an angry and unbelievable voice: "How is it possible? Who is it! How could his progress be so fast? How could he be here yesterday and still be able to enter practice today!"

This cold and arrogant golden spoon boy with eyes usually on the top of his head, this rare monastic genius in the Yunqin Empire, is full of anger and unwillingness in his heart.

He has climbed to the place where he fell yesterday. There are clearly new spear marks on the ground. Compared with the marks left yesterday, he has advanced more than ten steps and is less than thirty steps away from the bronze back door!

…

The next day, Wen Xuanyu came to the direct spear formation again, twisted to the place where he fell before, and then left silently.

Another day later, Wen Xuanyu once again entered the spear formation with a black long sword in his hand, and fell down exhausted.

The next day, the stumbling Wen Xuanyu entered the stone hall again. After twisting to the ground near the bronze back door, he looked at the traces of mud around him, the invisible pressure on him from the Wen family, and this man.

The pressure put on him by his unknown opponent made him vent his anger. He once again shouted angrily in the empty stone palace: "Since you can do this, why don't you come again! Why don't you come!"

There were no new marks on the dirt around him.

This shows that the other party has not gone to this stone temple to practice in the past few days, but even so, Wen Xuanyu tried his best, but he is still far behind the record left by the other party in the past few days.

He is not just a genius with level 5 soul power. In fact, since he was ten years old, the Wen family has discovered that he is extremely talented in martial arts and can learn any move instantly, so the Wen family did not even teach him in advance.

Some of his martial arts skills, no matter how good the teachers the Wen family could find, would never be as good as the instructors at the academy. The Wen family was just worried that some wrong teachings would have a negative impact on his future practice.

He is a genius who is destined to be outstanding in Qingluan Academy, so he has enough capital to be proud. He thinks that if anyone can break the record here, he must be the first, but the other party seems to have given up on him.

For a few days, he still couldn't surpass the opponent at all, how could this not make him feel hurt and angry.

Those marks that were ahead of him but were not new stab marks were simply a silent mockery to the proud man.

But in fact, the reason why Lin Xi hasn't come these past few days is also very simple.

Because these days are the outdoor survival courses of the Zhige Department... So these days, Lin Xi and the freshmen of the Zhige Department were taken to the Dengtian Mountains, a day's walk away from Qingluan College.

middle.

When Wen Xuanyu screamed angrily in the empty hall again, Lin Xi, who was so hungry that stars popped out of his eyes, was looking at a black-haired mountain rat repeatedly, hesitating whether he should follow the teacher's instructions and kill him

This black-haired mountain rat was roasted and eaten.

This is indeed a difficult choice.

Because according to the lecturer who taught the course, the fat under the skin of this kind of mountain rat is relatively thick, so the best way to eat it is to grill it directly on the fire without peeling the skin or removing the internal organs. When the fur is charred, the fat inside penetrates into the meat.

After it's inside, remove the charred exterior and internal organs. According to the lecturer's teachings, if you eat this kind of mountain rat in this way when it's close to the limit, the nutrients in the fat can make you last half a day longer... But even with the skin

The meat and internal organs were not removed, and it was just roasted like this. It was actually a bit disgusting.

Seeing Lin Xi's appearance next to the fire, Hua Jiyue, who had finally caught a few small fish from a distant stream, suddenly shouted angrily: "Lin Xi... are you very affectionate with this black mountain rat? You

We have been staring at it for at least five seconds. Although the lecturer stipulates that each of us can only eat what we have caught and collected, but if you really don’t want to eat it, just let it go, and I will naturally catch it and eat it.

."

After hearing what Hua Jiyue said, Lin Xi sighed with a grimace, and finally put the fat black mountain rat that he had finally caught whole on the fire and roasted it.

There are too few prey and practical plants in this semi-frozen wasteland in the Dentian Mountains, and there is still a day's journey back. The practitioners have a large appetite, and now his stomach is a little hungry.

He was suffering from convulsions, so he really needed to eat the black mountain rat like this. But... looking at the mountain rat that was rustling on the fire and beginning to bulge, Lin Xi couldn't help but muttered: "But this is indeed a bit disgusting.

…”

…

Lin Xi was indeed very busy. With the support of this black mountain rat and some plant tubers dug along the way, shortly after returning to the Xinsheng Zhige Hall, Professor Mu Qing brought him two pieces of news. One was to help him with the trial valley.

Luo Houyuan received an oral instruction from Luo Houyuan. The lecturer in charge of the reception that day had clearly conveyed Lin Xi's intention to see Luo Houyuan. Luo Houyuan would meet Lin Xi the next time Lin Xi entered the trial valley. And there was another piece of news.

However, An Keyi asked him to go to her pharmacy immediately.

There was no need to worry about Luo Houyuan's matter, because the strange tremors that sometimes appeared between the blood vessels in his arms and fingers had not brought about any obvious changes, but An Keyi's place was very urgent, because Lin Xi knew very well that like

A very nerdy female associate professor like An Keyi will definitely only remember what is in the book unless there is something particularly urgent, and will not be in a hurry to find herself.

So before she was completely full, Lin Xi grabbed some food and ate on the road while rushing to An Keyi's medicine room as quickly as possible.

As soon as Lin Xi opened the door of An Keyi's medicine room, she was slightly startled.

An Keyi was actually not doing anything. She was just in a daze with her brows slightly furrowed. She was also looking at the medicine stove or reading a book. She was just staying quietly.

Associate Professor An, who had always been immersed in books, didn't even read. What was going on? This sight was certainly too unusual for Lin Xi, who was familiar with her.

"Teacher An, what are you doing?" This made Lin Xi say this involuntarily.

An Keyi glanced at Lin Xi and replied calmly in a reading-like tone: "I'm waiting for you."

"You didn't do anything but sit and wait for me. Why did you change your gender?" Lin Xi felt even more strange. Remembering that she had not saluted just now, she habitually saluted the female associate professor and asked: "Then the teacher is so

Why are you so anxious to find me?"

An Keyi looked at Lin Xi and explained: "This subject of mine was prepared a day ago. Now that you come back, you can start."

Lin Xi was stunned: "So fast?"

An Keyi nodded: "Originally, the last missing thing might take some time to arrive, but it happened to be delivered yesterday."

"Then what does the teacher want me to do?" Lin Xi closed the door of the medicine room and asked immediately.

"Sit opposite me." An Keyi pointed to the bamboo mat opposite her. After watching Lin Xi sit down, she took out a small sheepskin roll from her sleeve, and then took out a white jade box from her sleeve.

Then he opened it very carefully in front of Lin Xi.

Inside the jade box is a transparent glass bottle, which is about the same size as the medium-sized medicine bottle in the medicine room. The stopper of the bottle is sealed with a layer of clear wax. It is filled with black viscous liquid and soaked with a pigeon egg.

Large and small beads, the appearance of the beads looks like hard stone, but it shines with a slight yellow light.

"Teacher, do you want my help in doing this?" After carefully reading the contents of the small parchment scroll, Lin Xi was even more stunned. She looked at An Keyi and the bottle in the white jade box with complete confusion.

, asked: "Since this is the only step in the end, then Teacher An, why don't you find someone to help you and still have to wait for me for a day... Could it be that you really have been waiting here for me for a day without doing anything?

Bar?"

The steps recorded on this small sheepskin scroll are very simple. They are just two methods of preparing the liquid medicine. One of them is marked as being made by An Keyi himself, and the other is marked as being made by Lin Xi.

The two liquid medicines are not difficult for An Keyi and Lin Xi. They just need to mix some things that have been prepared before in a certain proportion and order, just like making a cocktail.

The only slightly difficult thing is that the preparation process of the two liquid medicines has strict time requirements. In the end, the two liquid medicines are required to be completed at the same time and then mixed together.

But for some more careful students in the Imperial Medicine Department, there shouldn't be any problem in completing it.

"I have been waiting for you here for a day. This thing and the several medicinal materials in the medicinal solution we prepared earlier are very rare. If we are wrong, it may take several years to put them together. I have some other people.

Don't worry." An Keyi nodded and said calmly as if he were reading: "I trust you."
