Chapter 15: Lack of Qi and Blood
Tang Chao talked with the old man orange for a long time, and walked out of the study with a normal face.
"Lang'er, if the house is not busy, you can take your little friend out for a walk. The old man orange put his hands behind his back and said to Xu Lang after he walked out. After he finished speaking, he turned to Tang Chao and said, "If the old man is not mistaken, you are short of qi and blood now, right? Let Lang'er take you to the treasury to choose a few tonics, and then go out to have a look." After all, it is the main city of the west, and there may be some gains. ”
"Thank you for your kindness. Tang Chao smiled and said politely, and did not refuse, did not deny.
Xu Lang took Tang Chao and Tang Qianqian all the way to a rockery in the backyard. He also didn't mean to hide it, and directly pushed a stone from the rockery. The mechanism moved, revealing a secret door.
"Your family's treasury is just here?" Tang Chao asked suspiciously, looking at the simple mechanism.
"Since my father-in-law let you enter the treasury, there is no need to hide it from you. Although I don't know why my stepfather looks at you differently, you should be careful. Xu Lang said, just the latter sentence, and lowered his voice. As soon as the words fell, he knocked directly on the secret door seven times, and then pushed the door and walked in.
Entering the door is a staircase that goes down, dozens of sections. After going down the stairs, I turned the corner and suddenly opened up. Nearly 100 square meters of underground warehouse, displaying all kinds of boxes.
"You pick it yourself, the box is full of good tonic and wound medicine. ”
"Aren't there any pills?" Tang Chao looked through a few boxes and found that most of them were dry goods, and the medicinal power had lost a lot.
"There are no pills, but they can be boiled into a decoction. What is a single drug?
"That's it...... It is to refine medicinal materials into pills, or into pills. "Tang Dynasty compared for a long time, and finally explained.
"No, I haven't heard of it. All are taken directly. Xu Lang shook his head, indicating that he hadn't seen it.
"It turns out that it's not because of the lack of news in a small place, it turns out that you don't have alchemy here. The Tang Dynasty fiddled with the old medicinal herbs and muttered to himself.
"Alchemy?" Xu Lang muttered and didn't speak again.
The Tang Dynasty picked and chosen, and finally took a large box with a lot of medicinal herbs in it. After staying for half an hour, the three of them left the treasury. Tang Chao walked last, and before leaving, he glanced at the wall on the right.
Tang Chao asked for some metal pieces, and took his sister into the guest room and didn't come out again.
At the same time, a cavalry team of 100 people set off from Tianshui City, wrapped in black battle armor. And each of them was two war horses, galloping all the way from the city to the center. Soon after, several groups of men and horses, and various cavalry, also set out in the same direction.
Tang Dynasty entered the room for two days. Tang Qianqian went out and walked around twice, but she returned after a while.
It wasn't until the third day that a red ghost in a red robe entered the Afterlife Mansion, and Wan Jin had to knock on the door in person to ask for instructions from the Tang Dynasty.
"Young Master Tang, the red flag red ghost asked to see you, saying that he had an appointment with you. Look, do you see it or not?" asked Wan Kim outside the door.
"Steward Wan, wait a minute, freshen up, and come." The voice of the Tang Dynasty came from the room, and Wan Jin was relieved.
A moment later, the door opened, and a dusty Tang Dynasty stepped out.
"Ahem, Young Master Tang, this ...... Don't blame Young Master Tang, it's the negligence of the subordinates. There's a lack of water in the house, right?"
"I just practiced medicine for two days, and I just got a little smoke and dust. That's right, this one will reward you. Tang Chao looked happy, patted the half-black robe, and threw Wan Jin a jade bottle.
As soon as the words fell, Tang Chao had already walked towards the hall. Wan Jin, who was following him, shook the jade bottle in confusion and hurriedly followed.
"Red Ghost, you're on time. "The Tang Dynasty people didn't enter the door, but they spoke first. I was able to come back last time, and I have to say that it was the reason why the red ghost took action.
It was only after the Tang Dynasty entered the door that he found that there were not only red ghosts, but also Xu Lang. The two of them were looking at each other with bitterness and hatred, and no one even turned their heads to look at Tang Chao's entrance.
"I said the two of you, if you have something to say, you won't be so sympathetic, right?" Tang Chao was not polite, he sat directly on the chair on the side, and poured himself tea.
"Wanjin, as I said, if this person sets foot on my realm of life, he will break his leg and throw it out. Is there such a thing?" Xu Lang looked at the red ghost coldly and said.
Wan Jin, who frowned, replied in a low voice: "This is indeed the case." However, this time, Lord Hong came to see Young Master Tang, saying that he was invited to come. The villain didn't dare to make decisions without permission, for fear of misleading Young Master Tang's big event. ”
"In this Afterlife Mansion, my words are the rules. As I said, if you can't come, then you are not allowed to come. Xu Lang said.
"What does it have to do with me?"
"You...... Since you are also worthy of entering this Afterlife Mansion, what are you doing here?" Xu Lang asked.
"What does it have to do with you?"
"Poof......" Tang Dynasty squirted out a mouthful of tea, this guy did speak enough to choke people. "If you can do it, don't talk nonsense, or you can fight it. ”
The red ghost glanced at Xu Lang up and down, and then turned his head indifferently and walked towards the Tang Dynasty.
"You ......" Xu Lang's face turned blue, his fists clenched, but he couldn't hold back and didn't move. I wanted to leave in a bad mood, but then I thought about it and followed.
The red ghost looked at the Tang Dynasty in front of him and frowned, but he didn't ask anything. Instead, Xu Lang asked suspiciously, "Are you the Tang Dynasty?"
"It's dirty, it shouldn't affect my peerless appearance, right?" Tang Chao wiped his face again, then raised his hands and smiled.
"I've grown taller, I've gained weight, and I don't look like a child anymore. How old are you?" Xu Lang looked left and right, and then asked.
"I was an orphan since I was a child, and if you see my parents, help me ask me how old I am. ”
"Qi and blood. The red ghost spit out two words rarely.
"Frail and malnourished since childhood. Later, he followed his master to practice the art of raising swords and hiding swords, and there was too much deficit in qi and blood. The lack of qi and blood has affected the development, and now I have made up for it. When it comes to the way of self-cultivation, I'm afraid there are few who can compare to the master. ”
"What's the matter?" the red ghost asked.
"By the way, this is something for you, make a friend. Tang Dynasty took out a piece of animal skin from his dirty robe and threw it over.
The red ghost took it and glanced at it, and put it away before Xu Lang could look at it.
"Wait, there's this. Tang Chao watched the red ghost prepare to leave, only then did he remember to call him and throw a jade bottle over. "It can increase cultivation, it's much better than your unpalatable powder. Tang Chao looked at the red ghost who didn't care, and said another word.
Seeing the red ghost turn around and leave with something, Xu Lang had no choice but to give up. However, he turned around and asked Tang Chao, "What is the increase in cultivation?"
"Pills. and thy steward hath it, and reward him. Don't bother me for three days. Tang Chao waved his hand and turned to leave.
Facing Xu Lang's fierce eyes, Wan Jin took out a jade bottle from his clothes with a bitter face. After he opened it tremblingly, five round pills poured out of it. The whole body is red, but it glows with jade. If it weren't for some fragrance coming out, I really thought it was jade, not the so-called elixir.
"Don't live up to Young Master Tang's wishes, eat one. Xu Lang said to Wan Jin with an encouraging face.
Hearing this, Wan Jin hesitated for a moment, then resolutely picked up one and swallowed it.
