Chapter 432 Father and Daughter? (The Third Update! Please Subscribe!)
In Meiyang City, in a small courtyard with a single gate facing the river.
Chamber of Secrets.
Different from the space where Si Honglun Mountain is located, this secret room at this moment is only the size of an ordinary room.
There are only a dozen night pearls sporadically inlaid on the top of the head, emitting bright but soft light, illuminating every detail in the room.
Zhou Miaoli's eyes were slightly closed, and she was sitting on the futon, with mana surging all over her body. From time to time, accompanied by strange cries, there was a flash of blood.
She is practicing 【Swallowing Soul and Melting Life】.
This technique is not difficult for him.
After some research, at this moment, he has already cultivated in sevens and eighties.
Amid the lingering light of blood, one can see the plain face of the female cultivator in white, with a long red gold hairpin on top of her bun, which is the only decoration, which looks more like a hibiscus, natural to carve.
This long hairpin is the magic weapon that Si Hongshi specially prepared for her for this mission. It has the same effect as [Blood Without Face], it can change appearance and hide heels.
For a moment, she slowly recuperated, and the screams of blood all around disappeared in an instant.
Zhou Miaoli opened her eyes, swept over her consciousness, and immediately commanded in a deep voice: "Come in!"
The door not far away was immediately pushed open, and an elderly man in a brocade robe walked in cautiously. He was not tall and had a simple and honest face, giving him an honest and reliable feeling.
He bowed and said, "Subordinate Fan Dechang, I have seen..."
"No need to be like this." Zhou Miaoli frowned when she saw his respectful expression, and interrupted in a deep voice, "Next, you and I need to play the role of father and daughter. You are Fan Dechang, a native of Meiyang City, who is good at merchants. He is quite wealthy, and he can be considered a respectable person in the county."
"I am your only beloved daughter Fan Jusong!"
While speaking, Zhou Miaoli's original disguise changed again. Soon, her figure quietly adjusted, and her face changed from cold and beautiful to charming and charming.
Crescent eyebrows and almond eyes, pink face and peach cheeks, double snail buns are tied with multicolored silk ribbons, and two feet long tassels hang down, making it more lively and pretty.
Even the undecorated white clothes on his body were replaced by a short skirt embroidered with twigs and flowers on a cinnabar bottom, a crimson ivory white skirt, and a wide-sleeved cardigan with a pine green bottom and gold lace flowers , the waist is wrapped with beads and jade, and the attire is gorgeous.
Zhou Miaoli continued indifferently, "The real Fan Jusong has returned to the Holy Sect. When you cooperate with me to complete this task, your father and daughter will naturally be able to reunite in the Sacred Sect."
"From now on, you are my father and I am your only daughter."
"Is there any father who speaks to his daughter with such respect and fear?"
Fan Dechang hurriedly said: "Yes!"
He originally wanted to bow down to answer, but was stopped by Zhou Miaoli's eyes. He subconsciously straightened his back, took out a jade slip, and said in as normal a tone as possible: "This is before today, in Meiyang City. All the rosters of alchemists who came to participate in the alchemy ceremony have been checked repeatedly and confirmed to be true."
Zhou Miaoli nodded and took the jade slip to check.
According to Si Hong's understanding, there are about three hundred ninth-rank alchemists in Meiyang City at this moment.
Most of them are alchemists cultivated by the dynasty themselves, and the smaller half are casual cultivators from outside;
As for the eighth-rank alchemists, the number dropped sharply to more than 50 people, most of them were students of the county college, and the number of casual practitioners was very small;
At the level of the seventh-rank alchemist, the number of people dropped sharply again, to only a dozen people.
There are only three casual cultivators, namely Xie Chang from Jiuyi Mountain, who is at the alchemy stage; Qi Qiongwu, who is from Suzhentian, and who is at the alchemy stage; The next Pang Rong, the peak cultivation level in the late foundation establishment period.
These three, although their faces still look youthful, are actually around 70 or 80 years old.
There are eight sixth-rank alchemists, all of whom are local alchemists from Liugai Dynasty Academy.
As for the fifth-rank alchemists, there are only two of them.
One is Nan Gongsu, the chief alchemist of Anmin in Meiyang City; the other is Xun Wuyang, the alchemy master who spent a lot of money to hire the best academy in the county city, Meiyang Academy last year.
These two, the grandfather of the former, was a high-ranking member of the household department, and he was born in a noble family. When he was young, he was found to have outstanding alchemy talent. Under the arrangement of the family, he was a teacher of a certain imperial dynasty. Gaotu. With Nangong Su's background and alchemy attainments, the reason to sit in Anmin in Meiyang City is to accumulate prestige and qualifications.
In the future, sooner or later, he will be admitted to the Imperial Hospital to serve the center.
Even if one's attainments in alchemy reach a higher level, it is not impossible to imitate his teacher and worship for the imperial court.
And Xun Wuyang is a typical proud son of a poor family.
He was born in an ordinary family in a small town in the imperial dynasty, and within three generations of his family, there had not even been a monk. His own cultivation talent is also very mediocre, but he was discovered to have excellent alchemy aptitude in the Children's Enlightenment School opened by the imperial dynasty.
Funded by the public treasury of Xiaocheng, it was cultivated all the way into the best Yulin Academy in the dynasty.
He finally graduated with the grades of Yulin Academy as the leader of alchemy. After many colleges competed, he was finally attracted by the many favorable conditions offered by Meiyang Academy and chose to come to work in the local area.
Although these two already have official positions in the dynasty, but because they are not yet a hundred years old, in order to make their resumes more glamorous, they will definitely not let go of the opportunity to participate in the alchemy ceremony and win the ranking.
And judging from their experience, it is obvious that these two are rivals of Dadian!
On top of these two people, there is a fourth-rank alchemist who is also the most skilled alchemist in Meiyang County. His name is Tu He, and he is the examiner of this county examination.
After reading it, Zhou Miaoli pondered slightly.
Seeing this, Fan Dechang quickly added: "The county examination has not yet started, and there are still few alchemists in the county. Moreover, a few days ago, the imperial court temporarily changed the rules of the alchemy ceremony, and a considerable number of alchemists above the fifth rank have already arrived. The county town, but was temporarily transferred to other counties to be the examiners of auditions and government examinations, and it will be difficult to arrive in the near future."
"After a while, there will definitely be more suitable targets."
"There are too few targets right now, and even if there are suitable ones, they are always protected by the monks of the imperial dynasty."
"Wait until the county test is approaching, and when alchemists gather in the county, it will be easier to cover up."
Hearing this, Zhou Miaoli nodded, and immediately said: "I don't know anything about alchemy, so even if the alchemist's memory and alchemy experience are deprived of the alchemist's memory and alchemy experience with the [Swallowing Soul and Melting Life Technique], I have never touched the alchemy furnace. I'm afraid it's just watching from the other side, once you get started with the operation, it's easy to show flaws."
"So, find me another real alchemist and teach me some general skills and tricks."
Fan Dechang hurriedly said: "Yes!"
Seeing Zhou Miaoli looking at him, he quickly changed his words, "Okay."
