Jin Hongze came here uninvited. This Alchemy Conference actually has little to do with him, and it doesn't matter whether he can leave or not. It will not affect the Alchemy Conference, and no one will say anything about him. At most, he will appear to be too petty.
However, Li Ziliang is one of the hosts of the Alchemy Conference and one of the judges. If he follows and leaves, it will undoubtedly be an extremely irresponsible performance. How can he still hang out in this circle in the future? But if I don't leave, it would be too embarrassing to stay here, and wouldn't my previous statement be in vain
During Li Ziliang's moment of hesitation, Jin Hongze and his disciple Jiang Ziliu had already reached the stairs and were about to go downstairs and leave.
But at this moment, Ye Zan suddenly said: "Is Grandmaster Jin leaving now? There will be something good to see later! It would be a pity if you are not there."
Jin Hongze only paused for a moment, but without looking back, he snorted and led Jiang Ziliu downstairs.
"Forget it, let's just ignore him. What about Grandmaster Li? He has something urgent to leave, right?" Ye Zan turned around and asked Li Ziliang while putting away the elixir.
Li Ziliang was even more embarrassed, but although he did not respond to Ye Zan, he did not throw up his sleeves and leave like Jin Hongze did. Instead, he went back to his seat and sat down, looking at the square outside.
Although it was dark, the crowd in the square outside did not disperse, and there were still alchemists showing off their skills. Moreover, for ordinary alchemists, it often takes a long time to refine a furnace of elixirs. One day and one night may not be enough, so naturally they will not leave midway.
After Ye Zan collected the elixir, he handed it to Yan Xinghe and said, "Thank you Brother Yan for providing the elixir furnace and herbs."
However, Yan Xinghe pushed the elixir back and said with a serious face: "You're welcome, fellow Taoist. I am satisfied to be able to enjoy such a wonderful scene. Please accept these elixirs, fellow Taoist."
"Okay, I'll take it then." Ye Zan didn't show any pretense and directly put away the box of pills.
"Fellow Daoist, please come here, and also Daoist Liu, Fellow Daoist Qi, please!" Yan Xinghe said to Ye Zan and others. This time, Jin Hongze didn't find fault anymore, and Li Ziliang also became an invisible man.
However, Ye Zan smiled and said: "I'm not busy, I have some good stuff here that I want to share with you."
As he spoke, Ye Zan walked to the window on the other side of the square, took out something from the Qiankun Ring, and threw it into the air in the square.
Seeing this scene, Yan Xinghe and others couldn't help but think of what Ye Zan said to Jin Hongze just now, so they also followed him and looked outside curiously.
The thing Ye Zan threw flew to the other side of the square with a ray of light, attracting everyone's attention along the way. Then, the thing hung in mid-air, emitting light outwards, forming a huge light curtain in mid-air in the blink of an eye.
"Fellow Taoist, what is this?" Yan Xinghe asked curiously.
Ye Zan smiled and said, "Brother Yan, don't worry, you will know after reading."
And following Ye Zan's words, some images suddenly appeared on the huge light screen, as if several figures were shaking. The image quickly became clear. When people saw the image clearly, someone in the square immediately exclaimed.
It turned out that the figures in the image were Yan Xinghe and other alchemy masters on the wooden floor, and of course Jin Hongze was among them. Moreover, the images are accompanied by sounds, and each person's voice is very clear, as if they are standing in front of the audience and speaking.
Yes, Ye Zan was playing the video, showing everything he saw and heard after he got upstairs.
From Yan Xinghe enthusiastically inviting Ye Zan and others to sit down, to Jin Hongze standing up to criticize, saying what the rules are, and Li Ziliang also standing up to express his position.
In fact, when the video was posted here, the alchemists below were surprised to see it, but they didn’t think there was anything wrong with Jin Hongze and the others. Perhaps even out of rebellion against power, he felt that Jin Hongze dared to challenge the Danding Sect, which was a sign of a true hero.
Especially when Ye Zan said that he wanted to make alchemy on the spot and win the title of alchemy master. In the square below, there was a burst of curses or disdainful ridicule. It was obvious to them that Ye Zan was definitely overestimating his abilities.
However, on the wooden floor, Li Ziliang, who knew the whole process, couldn't sit still. He stood up and asked, "What do you mean by this!"
"It's nothing, let everyone take a look, in case someone spreads rumors in the future, saying that I got the title of Alchemy Grandmaster through the back door. You know, that Grandmaster Jin is very good at this kind of thing. Liu from my sect Elder is an example." Ye Zan said without looking back.
"You!" Li Ziliang gritted his teeth, but still sat back.
At this time, the crowd in the square was somewhat excited, and many people were scolding Ye Zan and others for being rude to Jin Hongze. But as the video played, it soon came to the part where Xun Hongwen retrieved the herbs and the alchemy furnace, and then Jin Hongze inspected the herbs.
Jin Hongze checked the herbs and then scratched the herbs with his fingers. No one at the scene could see anything. However, first, the picture was enlarged, second, it was a close-up, and third, most importantly, it was edited.
Yes, it was just edited, after all, Jin Hongze's actions were too secretive. Ye Zan also guessed afterwards that the other party acted at this time, so he simply edited the picture a little.
However, everyone below, even several alchemy masters, did not know that this image could be edited. So, on the huge light screen, it was clearly visible that Jin Hongze flicked some powder when he touched the herbs with his fingers.
At this time, everyone below was silent. Although they all felt that it could not prove anything, they still did not dare to speak easily again.
The video continued to play, and soon it came to the place where Jin Hongze said that Ye Zan failed to make alchemy, and walked over to interrupt Ye Zan arbitrarily. There was discussion in the square, and as the video played, the discussion became louder and louder. The people in the square were divided in their opinions. Some were still supporting Jin Hongze, but more people began to support Ye Zan.
People have a mentality that sympathizes with the weak. Initially, they supported Jin Hongze because compared to the Danding Sect, Jin Hongze was weak. But now, compared to Jin Hongze, Ye Zan is undoubtedly the weak one again. Although due to perspective problems, they still don’t know what Ye Zan looks like.
To sympathize with the weak is actually to put yourself in the perspective of the weak. Because no matter where you are, almost everyone will have the experience of being looked down upon by others, or he may think that he has been looked down upon by others. Although the alchemist's status is high, he is still a human being. As the saying goes, there is a mountain higher than the other. No one will stand at the top all his life, only looking down on others without being looked down upon by others.
The video played to a critical point, and even the people in the square who were refining alchemy couldn't help but stop, looking up at the light curtain in mid-air. As a result, some alchemy furnaces soon emitted black smoke, but no one paid attention to it.
Jin Hongze and Jiang Ziliu had not actually left yet. When Ye Zan started playing the video, the master and apprentice had just walked out of the wooden building. At first, I heard that most of the discussions in the square were in support of Jin Hongze, which made Jin Hongze feel quite proud. But soon, as the video played, especially when he got to the place where the herbs were inspected, Jin Hongze's expression changed.
Immediately afterwards, discussions reappeared in the square, and a large number of curses on Jin Hongze began to appear. Jin Hongze is a person who cares about face very much, otherwise he would not have treated Liu Gan like that in the first place. However, the broadcast of this video was equivalent to destroying the image he had built for many years.
"It's so shameless. With such a character, is he worthy of being a master of alchemy?"
"That's right, it really discredits the alchemy master. I used to think that he was kind and kind, but I didn't expect him to be so shameless."
"Grandmaster Yan also has a good temper. If it were me, I would have kicked this guy out a long time ago, but he is still left there to gibberish!"
"Look, he was still refining the elixir, and he went up to interrupt him. He obviously didn't want the other person to refine the elixir. Who just said that the powder he threw was harmless? Stand up and let me see."
The video continued to play, and the strange phenomenon of the alchemy furnace appeared, once again making everyone in the square quiet. For these alchemists, watching the elixir come out is probably more exciting than watching a shocking battle.
Finally, the best elixir was released, and cheers suddenly erupted in the square, just like watching a movie and seeing the protagonist kill the villain.
But immediately afterwards, Jin Hongze's performance attracted a lot of scolding. But this time, even those who had said good things about him before did not dare to say anything more. Master of Alchemy, can you just not afford to lose? The top-quality elixirs have been released, but they are still talking about using tricks. Why don't they say that they poisoned themselves
"puff!"
Jin Hongze spurted out a mouthful of old blood. The dignified ancestor of Yuanying and the master of alchemy was so angry that he vomited blood.
"Master?" Jiang Ziliu quickly helped his master, and then shouted to everyone around him: "Who do you think you are? You dare to talk about alchemy here? What do you know? It's all fake. It's all fake." !”
Following Jiang Ziliu's shout, the square suddenly became quiet, and everyone's eyes fell on Jin Hongze and Jiang Ziliu. Although they had scolded each other happily before, when they faced each other, they were a little afraid to speak out. After all, the other party was a master of alchemy and the ancestor of Yuanying. Is that easy to offend
However, in the eyes of these people, there was no admiration as usual when seeing Jin Hongze, only fear and contempt, or perhaps ridicule.
"puff!"
Under such gaze, Jin Hongze spat out a mouthful of old blood again, grabbed Jiang Ziliu beside him, turned into light and flew into the sky, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
At this time, the video had finished playing. Ye Zan waved over and took back the magic weapon that played the video. Then, he turned to look at Yan Xinghe and others, and said with a smile: "Everyone, are you enjoying it?" (To be continued.)
