Chapter 26 The family god fell into the water
"Book Ghost Preacher, if you pass the test later, there will be a big mountain above your head, and you will be free from exploitation."
The yellow-faced middle-aged man chatted with Yu Que: "I don't know how many people have passed the examination, but it is a disaster rather than a blessing. They practice every day, but they have ruined their lives."
Yu Que was silent, but seeing that the other party had a good personality, he smiled and said:
"How does Senior Huang know that this junior can pass the assessment this time?"
The yellow-faced man clicked his tongue, glanced at Yu Que with disgust, pinched his nose and said:
"The aura of lucky ghosts in your body has already overflowed. The boy couldn't see it just now, but I can."
After a pause, the other party continued: "And it seems that the medicinal properties of this ghost are not strong. It must have been refined by others, not mature. You have no elders to learn from, but you can have this ghost, no matter how you got it Come on, you must be sure of everything today.”
When Yu Que heard this, he had a little more respect for this person in his heart, thinking to himself: "It is true that there are all capable people in the alchemist guild, and they can actually spot the clues of the lucky ghost at a glance!"
Before he could think about it, the yellow-faced man said again: "Okay, tell me what fire and water methods you are good at."
Yu Que replied as he said: "Senior, frying with fire, roasting with water and wine."
"Okay." The yellow-faced man thought about it.
He walked to a frying pan that could swallow an elephant. He stepped forward and tested the temperature with his hands. Then he leaned down and picked up a handful of water from a green pool, licked it and said:
"This oil pan is hot, this pool is cool, you can use it here. If you are ready, call me at any time."
Yu Que stepped forward and looked at the oil pot, the wine pool, and the pedestrians passing by with a daze on his face.
He originally thought that the refining assessment would involve three trials and three questions, with clear procedures and strict links. Even if it wasn't like this, it would still have to be assessed in a separate room. Unexpectedly, the other party randomly ordered the oil pan and the pool. Let him perform it in public.
As for methods such as body searches and drug checks, none of them were done, which was quite a bit too casual.
The yellow-faced man saw Yu Que's hesitation and sneered: "Why, you don't feel comfortable with it? I still have to arrange a meditation room for you, and find a boy to sweep and dust you, and you burn incense and take a bath?"
The other party laughed and scolded: "You are just taking an entry-level exam. What are you asking for? After you finish the exam, I will have to catch up on my sleep. If you have real skills, this place is enough for you to show off."
Yu Que took a deep breath.
Although this place is simple and crude, it does have everything it should have. Perhaps this is also one of the tests of the Alchemist Guild.
So he no longer hesitated, cupped his hands towards the other party, and then stepped forward to inspect the oil pot and wine pool.
After checking again and again, Yu Que thought he was familiar with the heat of the oil pan and the depth of the wine pool, so he nodded seriously to the yellow-faced man:
"Senior, you can start."
The yellow-faced man took something out of his sleeve pocket and suddenly caught a cloud of gray air. There was a small figure in the gray air, with a big head and a big belly, and a swollen face.
"This is a drowned ghost, from the ninth rank. If you can eliminate its evil nature before the sun goes down and turn it into a real ninth-rank family god, you will pass today's test."
The other party's face slightly straightened, and with a flick of his finger, an object that looked like a human eye flew out of nowhere and hung above the two of them.
His head was as big as Yu Que's and was covered with red threads. He was staring at Yu Que.
The yellow-faced man pinched the drowned ghost and asked again: "Are you sure, let's start the assessment, and do you agree? If your life is in danger, can I intervene in the assessment and terminate the training?"
The other party's words made Yu Que slightly stunned. Is this person still willing to save him when his training fails?
This guy is quite nice and willing to help.
It should be noted that the alchemy assessment is different from the alchemy, weapon refining, and talisman refining. There is a lot of danger in it, and there are also death indicators. The alchemist guild does not promise to ensure the safety of the examinees, and it is entirely up to the examinees themselves.
Yu Que nodded seriously to the yellow-faced man: "Yes, thank you, Senior Huang."
Woohoo!
The other party stopped talking nonsense. As soon as he loosened his fingers, the gray energy in his hand surged out, turned into a fierce ghost, and rushed towards Yu Que head-on.
After Yu Que hurriedly avoided it, the gray energy suddenly rushed towards the wine pool. Yu Que was so anxious that white hair immediately appeared on his face, and corpse energy emerged from his hands. He rushed forward and held the object tightly.
The drowned ghost, the drowned ghost, is a ghost in the water. It is good at activities in the water. If it escapes into the wine pool without being refined by fire, most of Yu Que's assessment will be wasted.
After arresting the drowned ghost, a trace of cold air hit Yu Que's heart, and long hair like water plants wrapped around his body.
Yu Que didn't hesitate, his pupils shrank, and with a sudden jump, he jumped directly into the big sizzling oil pot like a big cat.
His action actually made the yellow-faced man supervising the assessment twitch his eyelids and clench his teeth.
Bah, bah, bah!
Suddenly there was a sound of boiling ghost energy and the sound of skin and flesh being fried.
Yu Que fell into the oil pan, and a stinging sensation hit his whole body. He put down the drowned ghost and quickly climbed out of the oil pan.
Just to save time, he threw the ghost into the oil pan. He would no longer stir the oil pan with his body like he was in a ghost shop. It should be noted that the complete training of a ghost and god is a laborious task, and he must learn to save his energy and energy.
Yu Que lay under the oil pot, constantly adding firewood, and from time to time, he stretched out his hand to pull out half of the head of the drowned ghost in the oil pot to check the heat.
This step is a technical job. If you are not careful, the ghost may be damaged by the explosion, and its "ninth grade" will directly degrade to the inferior, so the assessment will naturally fail.
And if the frying is too shallow, when the water method nourishes it, it may have enough power to explode, destroy the refining, and even threaten Yu Que's life.
Fortunately, Yu Que has been practicing deep-frying skills for many days, and has also fried ghosts in the water such as drowned ghosts. He knows that they have a lot of "moisture" and require 15% more time than ordinary ghosts.
And every time it is taken out of the pot, it must first be cooled down over low heat, then stabilized without fire, and then it can be taken out.
After a full hour, Yu Que repeatedly fished and fried it. When the originally disheveled drowned ghost became crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, like a ball of pus-filled oil residue, sticky and scary, he finally took it out completely and moved towards it. Carefully put it in the wine pool on the side.
Sizzle!
The aroma of wine suddenly surged from the pool, and the sharp ghost howl was louder than before, attracting the attention of many people.
Many apprentices or refiners pointed and commented on Yu Que.
The deep-fried drowned ghost was thrown into the wine pool. Suddenly something unexpected happened, and its ghost body expanded rapidly and bounced up.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
roar!
Yu Que's face tightened, and he immediately bit his fingertips, quickly took a ladle of hot oil from the oil pan, dripped his finger blood into it, and poured it into the boiling pool of wine.
Bang, oil and wine intertwined, and with the blood of his finger used as a primer, a large handful of flames appeared on the wine pool.
The drowned ghost who had just bounced up was suddenly imprisoned by the flames, and was continuously dragged into the pool, unable to jump out.
When the smell of alcohol and flames that disturbed his vision disappeared, an ugly grimace had been sealed under the oily flowers on the water's surface, and could only squirm and stare at Yu Que fiercely.
Yu Que stretched out his hand and tapped on the oil flower, and a few wisps of ghostly energy wrapped around it.
He took back his finger, tasted it in his mouth, and muttered: "Blow it for three minutes, then soak it for four minutes to absorb more alcohol."
So he exhaled, sat cross-legged on the edge of the wine pool, silently waiting for the water ghost in the pool to brew, and continued to chant:
"Water and fire are invisible, gods and ghosts have no trace. Heaven and earth have spirits, the sun and moon have essences. Rejuvenate the soul and nourish the soul, receive the power of the gods... practice and practice, and quickly become a family god!"
While Yu Que was training ghosts and gods, the yellow-faced man kept watching.
At first, the man couldn't take his eyes away. When he saw Yu Que's mastery of craftsmanship, which was not only able to control the heat, but also the evil spirits of ghosts and gods, the man squatted aside, his eyes drooped, and his eyelids gradually closed, leaving only his ears. Move slightly.
As the training progresses, the sun moves slowly, getting closer and closer to setting the mountain.
In the backyard of the alchemist's guild, Yu Que repeatedly fried and roasted the drowned ghost with wine. After nine frying and seven roastings, his face became paler, but his spirit became more exciting.
Thanks to that lucky ghost, he didn't make any mistakes today, and he never wavered. He was always in high spirits and in excellent condition.
Finally, Yu Que sat cross-legged between the oil pot and the wine pool, and suddenly opened his eyes:
"Coming!"
Wow!
He opened his mouth and spat out a small, squirming ball of gray air that looked like a baby.
The little man has a fish tail, and his body is dripping with water, as if it were all his saliva.
Refining ghosts and gods is not just about borrowing foreign objects, but also requires the refining master to use his own true fire and water to refine them.
Yu Que had just used his own essence and spirit to swallow the ghost into his belly, refining his heart with fire and nourishing him with stomach water, so as to encourage the ghost to become infected with human energy and transform into a god!
He looked intently at the baby kid curled up in his hands, looking forward to it.
Suddenly, a cry like a giant salamander, with a sharp sound, sounded throughout the scene!
"Wow!"
Yu Que was overjoyed, and his face was filled with kindness, as if he had been pregnant for ten months, and he was relieved that he had successfully given birth.
Before he could say anything, a voice came from in front of him:
"Okay, it's done, the Ninth Grade Family God Luo Shui Baby!"
It was the middle-aged man, who had stood up again at some point, stood in front of Yu Que, and looked at Yu Que with admiration.
In Yu Que's ninth grade refining test, the family god of the drowned baby was successfully delivered and passed the test!
