An alchemy furnace fell from the sky

"Reporting to the Patriarch, the Shi Mansion has been thoroughly searched, but no alchemy furnace has been found."

This sentence made Xu Fu's originally expectant expression freeze, and his heart suddenly began to panic.

"Have you searched the rooms of those guests?" Shi Qingshan thought for a moment and asked immediately.

"No."

"Why don't you look for it?"

"Yes Yes……"

The servant was in great difficulty.

"It's me who won't allow them to search."

A cold voice came from outside the hall, but the voice sounded a little strange, and it was impossible to tell whether the speaker was a man or a woman.

I saw a group of people entering the hall. The one leading them was dressed like a man, but his face was very feminine, especially his face was so white that it looked like he had been powdered.

The man came in without saying hello and sat down on a chair in the living room very casually, just like he was at home.

The group of people following behind him all politely bowed to Shi Qingshan. Some of them found a place to sit down, while more of them stood in the hall, filling it up in a moment.

"Master Qingshan, it was I who forbade them to search."

The feminine person waited until everyone was seated before speaking.

"What a man!"

Xu Fu actually felt a little nauseous when he looked at the man. If he hadn't said anything, Xu Fu would not have been able to recognize him at all, whether it was his voice or his appearance.

"It's embarrassing to say that although we are not as wealthy as the Shi family, we still have some reputation outside. Now we are here as guests at the Shi's house, but we are treated as thieves by the Shi family. If this gets out, how can we put our faces aside?"

"Brother Zhao is right!"

"Master Qianjun said it well!"

Everyone responded. These people were all well-known figures in the outside world. They were unhappy about being searched by a group of servants from the Shi family. If they were asked to come and find Shi Qingshan on their own, they would not have the confidence. But now that the head of the Zhao family has come forward, they are willing to follow suit to save some face.

Xu Fu then realized that this androgynous person was actually the head of the family? And such a person with a strong yin energy was actually named "Qianjun"?

Xu Fu couldn't help but think of the second housekeeper who "appreciated" him at the beginning. It was said that he had been driven out of the Shi family by the second young master. The two of them were somewhat similar. It was just that the second housekeeper liked to wear heavy makeup, while Zhao Qianjun exuded a yin aura from the bones.

"What do you think, Brother Zhao?" Shi Qingshan asked calmly, his face showing no sign of joy or anger.

"We are guests, how can we do something that would usurp the throne? We just want to ask for some face from the head of the Qingshan family."

"Yes! Lao Shi, you asked a few servants to search us. Isn't this a slap in our face?"

"that is!"

"..."

The hall suddenly became chaotic, and everyone pointed their fingers at Shi Qingshan.

"We have been in the Shi Mansion for so many days. Even though we were poisoned, we have not done anything to offend the Shi family. To be honest, if we had really stood with those three women that day, it is hard to say whether the Shi family would still exist!"

When everyone was excited, Zhao Qianjun said one more sentence, which caused everyone to say "yes" repeatedly. They acted like creditors of the Shi family, and everyone wanted Shi Qingshan to worship them as ancestors.

"In that case, I apologize for my poor hospitality. Please do as you please." Shi Qingshan said as he picked up the teacup and took a big sip, as if he wanted to use the tea to suppress the anger in his heart.

"Hey! What does Patriarch Qingshan mean by this? Is he going to chase us away? Do you think we are willing to come all the way to get involved in this mess? It was your Shi family who sent out the 'heroic invitation' and forced us to come here. Now that your Shi family is safe and sound, you want to kick us away. Patriarch Qingshan is really calculating." Zhao Qianjun immediately said sarcastically upon hearing this.

These words seemed to ignite everyone's anger, and the entire hall was in an uproar.

"What do you want?"

Shi Qingshan's face became gloomy again at this time.

"As long as you get rid of the poisonous insects in our bodies, there's no need for you to chase us away. I, Zhao Qianjun, will be the first one to leave!" Zhao Qianjun said in a cold voice.

"Without the alchemy furnace, the antidote cannot be made." Seeing Shi Qingshan speechless, Xu Fu immediately came over and spoke. He also couldn't stand Zhao Qianjun's arrogant and domineering appearance, so he directly retorted.

"Young man, don't lie to me. Master Xing never said what kind of alchemy furnace is needed to remove the Gu. You can't vent your anger on us just because you lost your alchemy tool!"

Zhao Qianjun spoke to Xu Fu politely, but his aggressive attitude was the same as before.

"Master Xing said no, then you can go find Master Xing. Anyway, I can't leave the alchemy furnace here!"

Xu Fu's look of "what can you do to me" made the whole hall suddenly quieter. Now everyone in the mansion knew that only this young man could remove poisonous insects, and he must not be provoked.

Zhao Qianjun was irrationally rebuked by Xu Fu, but anger appeared on his face. If this happened a few days ago, he would have definitely broken the man's arm and used it to refine a magic weapon.

However, when he thought of the scene where this young man confronted Sheng Yu'e, Zhao Qianjun could only swallow his anger.

Xu Fu noticed that Zhao Qianjun was staring at him, so he suddenly turned his head away, stuck out his tongue, squinted his eyes and made a face at him, which scared Zhao Qianjun.

Seeing this, Shi Qingshan couldn't help but smile, feeling quite relieved.

"Young man, don't assume that the treasure is on outsiders like us. If you want to find it, then search the entire Shi family. Let everyone in the mansion take off their clothes and check them one by one. A magic weapon the size of a thumb can be hidden even on the bodies of those ladies!"

As soon as Zhao Qianjun finished speaking, Shi Qingshan's face turned ashen. He sat up abruptly and walked in front of Zhao Qianjun.

"What did you say?"

Shi Qingshan's voice was very cold and his fists were clenched.

"What does Patriarch Qingshan mean by this? What did I say wrong?"

Zhao Qianjun also stood up at this time, looking tit-for-tat.

"Two family heads, please be patient and don't let a few words ruin the harmony." Someone immediately stepped forward to act as a "peacemaker", holding Shi Qingshan and mediating.

"Since you don't trust us, we want to seek fairness. Why do you say that the thing is on us..."

With a dull thud, Zhao Qianjun suddenly flew backwards and crashed into the crowd, knocking down several onlookers.

"You...you..." The peacemaker was also stunned. He was only thinking about holding Shi Qingshan back and never expected Xu Fu to suddenly take action. Although he possessed special skills and extraordinary cultivation, the people in front of him were all well-known figures in the world. How could he be so rash?

"What's wrong with me?" Xu Fu straightened his clothes, looking confused.
