Qin Ran didn’t want to know what kind of existence the Saint of the “Yuan” organization was, or what she would become in the future.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of the practice she practices? Did she practice it on her own initiative, or was she forced to practice by the organization
Is she controlled by the "Yuan" organization and forced to do things against her will? She is actually very kind-hearted.
Does she treat herself differently from others? She actually likes herself...
Qin Ran had never thought about these questions.
When a pair of tender eyes full of affection appeared in his mind from time to time, his heart would be moved. So he cursed: vixen.
Whether he was attracted to the saint or not was the main question Qin Ran studied in his spare time.
After studying for a long time, he finally confirmed that his heart was moved. But it was only physically moved. His heart was moved, but his mind and soul had no feelings for the saint.
Because his soul rationally told him that the Saint would not like him. He felt that the Saint liked him and was attracted to her because of her skills.
Her skills attracted his attention.
Therefore, he would feel restless every time the saint came to see him, but usually he was very calm and lived his life quietly.
Reading, practicing, refining elixirs, brewing tea...
Let time pass by leisurely.
Qin Ran read books very carefully and slowly, so he read very slowly. It took him more than a year to finish reading the book on basic medicinal materials sent by Shopkeeper Pang.
It was an afternoon, and the sun was shining brightly outside the window. When he turned the last page of the last medicine book, he felt particularly relaxed and happy, full of a sense of accomplishment, just like the sun outside the window.
He took a deep breath, closed the book, looked up, and saw the blue sea outside the window shining in the sunlight, like a sapphire, so beautiful and dreamy.
He exhaled, stood up, stretched beautifully, and said with a smile: "Where is not a place for cultivation?"
The life over the past year or so had been too regular, making him feel like he had returned to Danfeng, but the Danfeng without Li Shiyin.
He is just a clone, he has no interest in Li Shiyin, so he thinks Danfeng will be better without Li Shiyin.
After putting the book on the bookshelf and saving it for later reading, he turned around and brewed a pot of medicinal tea. He poured himself a cup, sat in front of the window, looked at the beautiful scenery of the deep sea, and slowly drank it all.
Then he got up and went out.
After reading the book on medicinal materials, it is time to move on to the next step, practicing the control of elixir water. To practice the control of elixir water, you need to find Pang Xuan to get a batch of medicinal materials.
I went out the door and stood in the spacious corridor. If I listened carefully, I could hear heavy breathing coming from the room opposite.
Opposite his room was the chief old man. This old man was lustful, and if he wasn't refining elixirs, then he would definitely be on women's bellies.
With his status as the chief alchemist, I wonder if there are any female alchemists in this base who have not been slept with by him. It can only be said that everyone has their own aspirations. The old man worked hard to make alchemy and practice, and the status, resources, cultivation, power, life, body, everything he got was just to have more women.
Qin Ran expressed his understanding, but did not agree.
After all, he is just a clone, and since he was created, he has been serving the will of the original body.
He closed the door, turned and walked out along the corridor.
He could use his identity token to teleport outside the base instantly, but there was no need. He needed to walk around more and get familiar with the base.
This "Yuan" organization base is roughly divided into three areas: accommodation area, alchemy area, and storage area.
The alchemist's elixir refining area, the weapon refiner's weapon refining area, and the talisman master's talisman making area; the storage area is where elixirs, magic tools, and talismans are stored.
The accommodation area will be roughly divided into high-end accommodation area and prison area. This is the name given by Qin Ran.
The area where he lived, past the central altar, had wide passages, bright lights, and luxurious rooms, and was clearly a high-end accommodation area;
But on the other side of the altar, the lights were dim, the rooms were narrow, and the accommodation conditions were poor, like a prison. Those living here were low-level alchemists, alchemists who couldn't make pills, alchemists who had just been captured and had not accepted their fate, and alchemists who were about to be executed. This was the prison area.
As Qin Ran walked slowly from the inside to the outside of the high-end accommodation area, people greeted him respectfully along the way. These were all alchemists who had been taught by him. Some greeted him because he was alive, some because he had received a generous reward, and some because he had not fallen into the prison area.
When he walked past the altar and arrived at the prison area, everything he saw and heard was horrible and hellish. When he passed a room, he even heard people inside planning to escape.
But it had nothing to do with him, and he walked straight through the prison area and came to the gate.
He used his identity token to open the door, walked out, and came to the platform halfway up the cliff.
Actually, although his freedom was not restricted, this was the first time he walked out of the base since he entered the base.
He hadn't left the house for nearly two years. This was the power of being a practicing otaku.
Standing on the platform, Qin Ran looked forward. In front of him was the endless vast sea. One or two white seagulls spread their wings and flew across the sky, drawing a graceful curve and disappearing into the sea level.
He breathed in the salty and humid air brought by the sea breeze, and quietly felt the feeling of the sea breeze blowing on his face.
"It's nice to come out once in a while!" He squinted his eyes and smiled, "You should come out more often in the future."
After saying that, he used his skills to fly up from the platform halfway up the cliff, passed through the formation, flew to the land, and then flew all the way into the Demon City, found the Yuanlai Teahouse, and walked in.
Pang Xuan was still sleeping behind the counter. His fat body made people worry that he might roll off the bed.
Qin Ran walked forward and knocked on the table, knocking twice before waking him up.
"Mr. Li!" Pang Xuan struggled to get up, smiled, and saluted Qin Ran, "Long time no see, Mr. Li!" "Every time I see you, you are sleeping. Your tasks are very leisurely." Qin Ran smiled, "I am really jealous."
“No way, no way…” Pang Xuan laughed.
"I have finished reading the book on medicinal materials, so I should have no problem with the first day's assessment of spiritual medicines and herbs." Qin Ran talked to Pang Xuan about business, "So I need a batch of spiritual medicines now to practice my control over Shenhua Xianning in order to prepare for the assessment on the second day."
"Mr. Li, is this what you came here for?" Pang Xuan laughed and said, "For the competition, it's nothing. I'll tell the pharmacist later and ask them to deliver the medicine to you on time."
"Yes!" Qin Ran nodded, turned around and walked out, saying, "Remember to send more. Training consumes a lot of spiritual medicine."
"Yes." Pang Xuan agreed.
After leaving the teahouse and standing on the street, Qin Ran looked at the people coming and going on the street. After hesitating for a while, he went to the blacksmith shop. He asked the master of the blacksmith shop to make a set of kitchen utensils according to his requirements.
So when the saint came to Qin Ran's room again, what she saw was Qin Ran cooking.
The room was filled with the sweet smell of fish bone soup. She looked at Qin Ran and asked incredulously, "You...are you cooking? You know how to cook?"
"Yes!" Qin Ran nodded, cut the tofu he made into pieces, threw it into the fish soup, and asked the Saint, "My cooking skills are pretty good, would you like some?"
The Saint Girl shook her head repeatedly: "Forget it, forget it, I don't like eating this kind of earthly grains."
"What a pity." Qin Ran covered the pot and let the tofu cook in the fish soup. He then asked the Saint, "Have you run out of elixirs again?"
The Saint took out a bag of herbs from the sachet, put it on the table, and said, "Help me refine some more."
Qin Ran looked at the herbs on the table, hesitated for a moment, and asked the Saint: "Do you feel that the consumption of the Cloud Spirit Pattern Pill is increasing?"
"Really?" The saint opened her eyes wide.
"I don't know." Qin Ran shook his head.
He scooped up a bowl of tofu and fish soup, tried the taste, and found it was okay, so he brought it to the table and scooped up another bowl of rice.
As he was eating, he saw that the Saint had not left yet, so he asked again, "Do you want to try it?"
The Saint hesitated for a moment and pointed at the fish soup: "Let me try some of the soup."
Qin Ran took a bowl and served it to her.
She finished all the fish and tofu, bowl after bowl.
It was not known whether the Saint was attracted by Qin Ran’s cooking skills or for some other reason, but she came to Qin Ran’s room more and more frequently.
Qin Ran had no other hobbies except the desire for food. So when he was not practicing, reading, or refining pills, he often went out of the base to various cities on Devil's Island to look for various ingredients to study gourmet food, or dark gourmet food.
As a result, the saint ate a lot of strange things.
Three years passed in a flash, and it was time to go to Hailangzong to participate in the competition.
