Inside the royal palace, Zhang Chu had people prepare the medicinal materials, and at the same time, instructed the people of their world to burn the Dan furnace.
Actually, firing the Dan Furnace wasn’t difficult, in their world, there were already people who fired pottery, and when Zhang Chu gave them a look at his Dan Furnace, they knew how it should be fired.
Moreover, these people all had spiritual power, and were even experts, so there were dozens of Dan Furnaces that were transported to the Royal Palace that day.
Zhang Chu, on the other hand, took advantage of this time to refine pills while teaching the Underworld Spirit the skills of alchemy.
Originally, the most important step in refining pills was to familiarise oneself with the medicinal properties of the herbs.
However, Hei Ling was able to directly omit this most important step, and her familiarity with the medicinal properties of the herbs was profoundly outrageous.
Then, the most important thing was the Dan formula and the fire.
For the Dan formula, Zhang Chu would not be stingy and directly told Hei Ling the complete Dan formula.
The fire, on the other hand, needed to be practised slowly, and there was no room for impatience.
Of course, while teaching, Zhang Chu also kept refining the Qi Replenishing Pill.
This kind of first grade elixir was too simple for Zhang Chu, and in one afternoon’s effort, a dozen or so furnaces were refined, and seven to eight hundred Qi Replenishing Pills were directly refined.
On this day, the entire Water Burial Lineage, the response was warm and sensational.
In the streets and alleys, almost everyone was talking about Zhang Chu, and it was only then that many of them heard that a messenger had come from beyond the heavens and brought them the art of alchemy.
Of course, pills weren’t that easy to refine successfully.
Although the Underworld Spirit had tried very hard and attempted to refine pills, she ended up blowing up six pill furnaces.
However, those pills that Zhang Chu had refined were already enough for the Water Burial lineage to use for a while.
Zhang Chu decided that in these two or three days, he must refine more Qi Replenishing Pills out.
Although to Zhang Chu, this kind of pill was not precious, and it was even boring to refine.
However, to the Water Burial lineage, a single pill could represent the life of a baby boy, so Zhang Chu worked very hard.
The next day, several more women came around Zhang Chu, all of them coming to learn alchemy from Zhang Chu.
Zhang Chu didn’t hide anything, he answered all questions and taught those who didn’t know how to do it by hand.
For two consecutive days, Zhang Chu had made as many as two thousand pills.
And the Underworld Spirit also lived up to the expectations, finally refining the first successful furnace of pills.
“Wow, Sister Hei Ling has succeeded!”The few women who had learnt alchemy together were heartily happy.
It was because they understood that if they succeeded once, they would definitely do it a second time and a third time.
Zhang Chu, on the other hand, was shocked beyond words, in two days of work, she had actually succeeded in refining the first furnace of pills, this Hei Ling’s talent in alchemy could throw Zhang Chu off by hundreds of streets.
It was just a pity that she was destined to stay in their world, unable to go to the wider outside world.
However, the Underworld Spirit was happy.
To her, as long as she could protect this world of hers, she was already satisfied.
On the third day, just as Zhang Chu continued to teach them alchemy, the Queen suddenly hurriedly arrived.
“It’s not good Messenger, it’s not good!”The Queen’s voice was urgent, as if something big had happened.
Zhang Chu hurriedly asked, “What’s wrong?”
At this moment, the Queen said, “Emissary, before, the pills you gave to those children were all very good, and after they ate them, they were all alive and well.”
“But overnight, almost all of the children, it seems as if their souls were taken away, and they all weakened.”
“Eh?”Zhang Chu’s heart steeped, “What?”
“You should quickly go and take a look, many of the children, it seems as though they are about to turn back into their original forms, I don’t know if it’s because the elixir is not right or what’s going on.”
At this moment, the Underworld Spirit directly spoke, “It can’t be that the elixir is wrong!”
Zhang Chu also knew in his heart that it was impossible for the elixir to be wrong.
So Zhang Chu said, “Let’s go, take me to see what’s going on, with those children.”
Minister of Grain, Hei Jue’s home.
Zhang Chu, the Queen, Hei Ling, and Hei Tang, arrived together.
As soon as they entered, Hei Jue said with an anxious expression, “Queen, Emissary, you’ve finally arrived!”
“What’s going on?”Zhang Chu asked.
At this moment, Hei Jue said anxiously, “Last night, my baby was still fine, and at night, he even ate three large chicken legs.”
“But as soon as he woke up this morning, the child was sickly, his face looked white, and he told me that he had no strength in his body, and that he missed the feeling he had two days ago.”
At this moment, the child slowly walked out from the other room.
When Zhang Chu took a look at this child, he was taken aback.
At this moment, he looked even worse than the previous few days, his pale face without any semblance of blood, walking lightly, looking as if a gust of wind could blow him over.
“Eh? How could this be!”The Underworld Spirit was also taken aback as she hurriedly squatted down to check on the child’s condition.
Zhang Chu also squatted down and took a closer look.
After a good while, Zhang Chu and Hades Spirit glanced at each other, both having a decision in their hearts.
“Well?”The Queen asked.
At this moment, the Underworld Spirit said with deliberation, “Queen, it looks like, it’s very abnormal, as if, as if ……”
“As if what?”The Queen asked eagerly.
Zhang Chu spoke, “It seems like there is something that has taken half of the blood from his entire body and sucked it away!”
“What?”The Queen was shocked.
The Underworld Spirit also nodded with a heavy expression, “Queen, the child’s power in his heart and veins is still there because of the Qi Replenishing Pill, and that power from the inside out has not disappeared.”
“However, his qi and blood, it’s as if it’s been taken by some demon, forcibly sucking away half of it, so, it’s very weak now.”
The Queen was shocked, “Demon!”
At this moment, Hades Soup, on the other hand, looked terrified, “Queen, I suddenly remembered something.”
“What is it?”The Queen asked.
At this moment, Underworld Soup said, “In the records of our Water Burial lineage, there have been several major incidents of haunting demons.”
“The most recent record is that the men seemed to have all been drained of their blood overnight, many died on the spot, and many more, were devastated and died not long after.”
“And those times of haunting demonic events were the turning point for the decline of yin and yang in our Water Burial lineage.”
When the Queen heard this, her complexion turned ugly, and she asked in alarm, “Hades Soup, what you’re talking about, is it that legendary curse?”
“Yes!”Underworld Soup said, “It’s that curse, when we, the Water Burial lineage, survive more than a certain number of men, that curse will appear.”
The Queen’s expression was horrified:
“Could it be that my Water Burial Vein is just about to have a little bit of an upturn, and that curse, it’s coming right away?”
Zhang Chu, on the other hand, hurriedly asked, “Curse?”
At this moment, the Queen nodded, “Yes, rumour has it that our Water Burial Vein, has been hit by a terrifying curse.”
Zhang Chu, however, shook his head, “It’s not like a curse.”
“Not a curse?”The crowd looked at Zhang Chu.
At this moment, Zhang Chu said, “In your world, is there a Feng Shui master? It’s the ones who can tell fortunes and understand prophecies.”
The Queen shook her head, “In our world, after the last Feng Shui master, the great prophet, told us that there would be a messenger to help us in the future, there has never been a Feng Shui master.”
Zhang Chu’s heart stirred, “I see.”
At this moment, Zhang Chu realised that if he wanted to completely solve the problems of this world, pills, I’m afraid, would not be able to completely solve them.
What truly needed to be used was still the art of Feng Shui.
At this moment, Zhang Chu said, “I have a feeling that in your world, there is a terrifying thing at work, but it is not a curse.”
“Huh? Does the messenger know the art of Feng Shui?”The Queen asked in surprise.
Zhang Chu nodded, “Understand!”
Then, Zhang Chu spoke, “In this matter, I’m afraid I need a few children to cooperate.”
“Good, I will immediately find some children.”The Queen said.
