Yun Yun heard that Xiao Fan spoke so highly of the thing in his hand, he couldn't help but look at this ordinary wooden lump in surprise.
"Is this thing really so effective?"
Xiao Fan looked at Yun Yun with a proud look on his face and said, "You don't know this, but this thing is very rare. However, not many people know this thing. Just finding it is extremely rare. The stench it emits is enough to drive away most of the people."
Yun Yun nodded in agreement. After all, what happened in the store just now, the power of the smell can be seen in the reaction of the shopkeeper.
"Didn't the guy say that this thing had a strong fragrance at the beginning? Why has it become so smelly now?"
Yun Yun I remembered that the clerk had said before that the shopkeeper bought the wood bumps because of the strong fragrance. However, he did not expect that after buying it, not only did the fragrance disappear, but it also became more and more smelly.
When Xiao Fan heard Yun Yun's question, he smiled mysteriously and said, "This is Hundred-Foot Fragrance's unique way of hiding himself."
"As Hundred-Foot Fragrance grows, it will continue to emit a rich aroma, which cannot be concealed. Therefore, it will attract a lot of Magical Beast or humans to pick it. This is why it is extremely difficult to see mature Hundred-Foot Fragrance."
"However, after this thing matures, the essence of its body will continue to condense toward the inside, excrete the impurities contained in it, and form this dark gray-brown shell on the surface of the body."
Xiao Fan pointed at the dim color on the wooden bumps and the raised brown dots, and explained to Yun Yun, "These are the impurities discharged by it. The real good stuff is all inside."
Yun Yun heard Xiao Fan's words and asked curiously, "Isn't it enough to just cut it open? This method should not be able to hide it from anyone."
After all, after getting this kind of weird wood, there will always be people who can't help but chop it open and take a look, and there will always be people who discover the magic of this wood.
"Hehe, this is the reason why Hundred-Foot Fragrance is the hardest to get."
Xiao Fan listened to Yun Yun, smiled and pointed to Hundred-Foot Fragrance in the box, and said to her, "Look at this carefully."
Yun Yun looked along the finger of Xiao Fan, saw the raised brown dots on Hundred-Foot Fragrance, and tilted his head to look at Xiao Fan in confusion.
Seeing this, Xiao Fan no longer held back, and used Dou Qi to isolate the smell around the box before opening it. Then a subtle black flame appeared on the fingertips of his right hand, condensing into a delicate knife. This precise control of the flame was enough to make other Alchemist stunned.
"The brown bumps on it are the connection between the internal essence of Hundred-Foot Fragrance and the body surface. Once these brown spots are damaged, even if you cut them open, you will only get a bunch of stinking impurities."
"Once this brown dot is destroyed, the impurities originally discharged will flow out instantly and mix with the essence inside. Hundred-Foot Fragrance is considered destroyed."
While Xiao Fan was explaining to Yun Yun, he controlled the knife in his hand to continuously draw across the Hundred-Foot Fragrance. Under Xiao Fan's superb control, he very smoothly avoided the brown spots on Hundred-Foot Fragrance.
Following Xiao Fan's movements, the gray shell on Hundred-Foot Fragrance's body was finally peeled off by Xiao Fan, and a palm-length smooth tree with a light blue halo appeared inside.
Xiao Fan smiled faintly and took out the real essence of Hundred-Foot Fragrance. As soon as it came into contact with the air, the essence of Hundred-Foot Fragrance solidified. The brown light spots that were still connected also solidified on the surface, and then turned into little dust and scattered.
"Okay."
Xiao Fan put the exquisite blue Hundred-Foot Fragrance in his hand and looked at it twice in the sun, then turned around and inserted it into Yun Yun's bun.
"Absolutely perfect!"
Xiao Fan looked at the natural hairpin on Yun Yun's head and couldn't help but admire it. This hairpin is the most suitable for Yun Yun's temperament. Yun Yun usually has very few decorations, and her cool temperament is not suitable for those bright decorations. This hairpin looks much more suitable. Coupled with its special effects, it is also of great benefit to Yun Yun.
Yun Yun noticed Xiao Fan's movements, and a touch of joy flashed across his face. A blush rose on his cheeks behind the veil, and his eyes were like autumn water. He quietly watched Xiao Fan put on a wooden hairpin for himself, but it was a pity that no one could see it.
At the entrance of the Imperial Palace, Xiao Fan and Yun Yun arrived and were stopped by the guards.
Xiao Fan took out Old Wan's waistband and handed it to the guard. The guard looked at Xiao Fan, then announced and led Xiao Fan and Yun Yun into the Imperial Palace.
As soon as they entered Imperial Palace, several traces of Dou Wang and Spiritual Strength swept past Xiao Fan and Yun Yun. However, under the cover of the two people, they did not find anything wrong at all.
The guards quickly brought the two Xiao Fan to a large Courtyard door. Then, after handing over to the imperial guards at the entrance of the courtyard, they turned around and ordered the two Xiao Fan: "Wait here for a moment, someone will call you later."
After finishing speaking, without looking at Xiao Fan and their reactions, he turned back and walked in the direction he came from.
Xiao Fan and Yun Yun looked at each other in confusion as they watched the leaving guards, but fortunately they didn't care about this.
After waiting for almost a stick of incense, an old man with gray hair was sent out by Maid who was wearing light blue palace clothes. The imperial army took the old man away, and then she looked at Xiao Fan and Yun Yun who were waiting at the door.
"Are you the Poison Master recommended by Wan Zuochen?"
Xiao Fan heard what Maid said, stepped forward, nodded, and said, "Yes, we are exactly what Old Wan recommended."
Maid looked at Xiao Fan's face, glanced at Yun Yun who was wearing a veil, and said to the two of them, "In that case, then you can just follow me."
"My name is Chunlai. Remember it. Don't look around or talk nonsense when you go in. If you break any taboos and hit the princess, I can't save you."
Xiao Fan nodded slightly when he heard Chunlai's words, smiled and remained silent.
The two followed Chunlai and entered Courtyard.
In the courtyard, Fake Mountain, small ponds, gardens, and pavilions are all beautifully arranged, but no one appreciates this beautiful scenery.
Chunlai soon brought Xiao Fan to a Palace. Two palace ladies stood at the door. After seeing Chunlai, they nodded slightly.
"This is Poison Master recommended by Wan Zuochen from Heavenly Fragrance House. I will take them to see Your Highness."
Hearing Chunlai's words, the two palace maids reached out and pushed open Palace's door, and then Xiao Fan and the other two followed Chunlai into the Palace.
The windows around the Palace are all closed, but the interior is dotted with many beads that emit soft light. Plus it's daytime, so it doesn't look dark inside and looks extremely gorgeous.
The only drawback is that Palace is filled with a strong Medicinal Ingredients flavor, which makes people not want to stay in it for too long.
Entering Palace, the front is blocked by a screen embroidered with pavilions and pavilions.
Through the gap in the screen, you can vaguely see the bed in the palace.
"Your Highness, this is Poison Master recommended by Wan Zuochen."
Chunlai bowed across the screen, lowered his head and said.
"I understand, let them come."
A gentle voice sounded, Chunlai stood up and looked at Xiao Fan and them, and then led them across the screen.
On the edge of the bed, Sikou Thirteen was sitting on an exquisite chair. When Chunlai saw him, he bowed again.
Sikou Thirteen and Sixth Princess have a close relationship. They have been taken care of by Sixth Princess since they were young. Since Sixth Princess was poisoned, they often come to visit. Chunlai has long been used to it.
Chunlai brought Xiao Fan and Yun Yun in front of Sikou Thirteen, bowed before retreating.
After Chunlai went out, Sikou Thirteen stood up from his seat and looked at Xiao Fan with excitement.
"I have already heard what happened from my thirteenth brother, and I am here to thank you both."
Xiao Fan and Yun Yun were sitting opposite Sikou Thirteen. A cold voice sounded on the bed, and then a pale arm came out from the curtain. A golden bracelet was dotted on the wrist, and there was also a fingernail-sized gem hanging on it, which was extremely exquisite.
As the curtains opened to both sides, a slender figure appeared in the sight of several people.
Sikou Ning is wearing a light yellow dress, with long black hair hanging loosely behind her back, and a few strands hanging on her shoulders. From the hair, you can vaguely see your looming shoulders. Her facial features are enough to stun everyone without makeup. Unfortunately, at this moment, on that thin and pretty face, her eyes are a little dim, and her red lips are so pale that it makes people feel distressed.
"Sikou Ning, I've met two of you."
Sikou Ning bowed slightly to Xiao Fan and then took a step forward to sit next to Sikou Thirteen.
Xiao Fan and Yun Yun also nodded and smiled at Sikou Ning.
"Imperial Elder Sister, why did you get out of bed? You are not in good health now. You need to rest more."
Sikou Thirteen saw Sikou Ning coming out and spoke with concern. Although Sikou Ning could use drugs to suppress the toxicity in the body, it was still extremely harmful to the body, so Sikou Ning spent most of the time resting on the bed.
"It doesn't matter."
Sikou Ning shook his head slightly and stared at Xiao Fan, his eyes completely inconsistent with her weak appearance.
"I'm not like Thirteen. I don't know why you two are actually willing to help Sikou Family fight against the Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect?"
Xiao Fan also didn't expect that Sikou Ning, who looked so soft and weak, would be so sharp when he opened his mouth. He couldn't help but look at her in surprise.
Seeing the determination in her eyes, Xiao Fan smiled and shook his head, and said, "I'm not trying to help you Sikou Family, but I can't bear to see Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect do such a shameful thing. Of course, even if I help you deal with the Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect, I won't be able to rush forward stupidly. Once things are impossible, I won't die stupidly."
Hearing Xiao Fan's words, Sikou Ning's beautiful eyes wrinkled slightly, opened her mouth, then gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, in that case, thank you very much, Your Excellency."
