At this time, in Master Chen's opinion, although he still didn't know whether Ye Chen would be able to do alchemy, this young man of the age of a weak crown definitely had real materials.

'This young man, perhaps, comes from some hidden pill family!!!

The more I looked at Ye Chen, the more thrilling I felt!

You must know that the pill is not a way to enter the hall by reading a few books. You must read and dye from an early age, and accept the edification and cultivation of the pill culture.

Ye Chen's guiding demeanor just now had already convinced Master Chen!

At least, he couldn't sniff the smell of medicine on his clothes like Ye Chen did, and then accurately say the various medicinal materials.

In modern society, even if it is just an ordinary family, if you can get a pill family, or a real alchemist, with all your strength, then, after a few years, you can definitely become the top wealthy family in the country!"

In Master Chen's mind, many thoughts turned around.

His heart was also on fire.

"Boss Lei, you go back first. I will refine another furnace of 'Xiao Pei Yuan Dan' that has no problems to compensate you for your loss this time." Tomorrow, I will personally go to the hospital to visit your father. "Master Chen sent Boss Lei away, who had bought the waste pill.

"Teenager... Please, please follow me!" Next, Master Chen hurriedly greeted Ye Chen. "Let's go to the study to talk about it, the old man has some problems with the elixir, and I want to ask for advice!

Ye Chen was already going to purchase a lot of medicinal materials, and it seemed that this Jade Leaf Hall should also have an alchemy furnace, so he didn't shirk and followed Master Chen.

Ye Chen gave Liu Ruxin a look. Liu Ruxin followed.

Master Chen took Ye Chen and Liu Ruxin to transfer through the corridor in this courtyard.

Ye Chen looked around, and saw that this courtyard was simply a super mansion, with an area of thousands of square meters, planted with many precious medicinal materials, and in the courtyard, there were workers drying medicinal materials.

What fish maw, bird's nest, ginseng, dendrobium, cordyceps, musk, deer whip, rhino horn, tiger bone, natural bezoar...... It's just everywhere.

Ye Chen casually estimated that the total value of the medicinal materials he saw with his eyes was definitely more than billions!

Not to mention, this Jade Leaf Hall still has a lot of warehouses.

'Awesome, really awesome... This Jade Leaf Hall has a big family. It is worthy of being a centuries-old brand and is trustworthy. Ye Chen smacked his tongue secretly.

After passing through the courtyard, Master Chen took Ye Chen and Liu Ruxin to a very elegant and antique study.

This study is full of carved solid wood furniture, hanging all kinds of famous paintings, calligraphy, and blue and white porcelain.

The atmosphere of ancient culture is too strong.

As soon as they entered the study, Ye Chen and Liu Ruxin both smelled a cool and sweet smell.

"It's so fragrant..."Liu Ruxin couldn't help but praise.

"Oh, it's Qi Nan incense, the best fragrance of agarwood. Master Chen shook his head and explained. "After this incense is heated by charcoal, there are more changes than ordinary agarwood, the first fragrance is cool, the tail fragrance has a strong milk fragrance, and the persistence of the aroma in the air is particularly strong. ”

"Master Chen is really elegant and exquisite. Ye Chen smiled.

"Young man, you don't call the old man a master... I can't afford it!" Master Chen said seriously. "If you don't dislike it, little brother, then call me 'old brother'. ”

Master Chen obviously deliberately got close to Ye Chen, pulled a relationship, and began to call Ye Chen 'little brother'.

"That's okay, brother. Ye Chen nodded indifferently.

The three of them sat down.

Immediately, a girl wearing a blue and white porcelain cheongsam served fragrant tea and pastries.

"Little brother, I don't know why you came to Jade Leaf Hall?" Master Chen asked with a smile.

"Oh, I'm just looking for some medicinal herbs. Ye Chen made it clear what he meant.

"That's fine. Master Chen nodded. "Little brother, what medicinal materials do you need, just ask, brother, I'll give you the biggest discount! Little brother, if you want to buy medicinal materials, you have found the right place." Yuyetang, with a history of more than 300 years, has also hoarded a lot of rare old medicines. In addition, your brother and I, all over the world, have channels for medicine. ”

Ye Chen smiled with satisfaction, and then asked again. "Brother, do you have a good Dan furnace here? If so, you can sell one to me. ”

"Little brother, do you want the Dan furnace? You... Do you know how to make alchemy?" Master Chen asked in a trembling voice.

"Well..."Ye Chen took a sip of tea with a smile and didn't answer.

Master Chen is an old man, and when he saw that Ye Chen deliberately avoided it, he didn't dwell on it and said with a smile. "Yes. Dan furnace, we have it in Yuye Hall. Hahaha... Little brother, for us alchemists, the Dan furnace is like the land of the peasants! Only when the peasants have the land can they grow grain and have enough to eat. We alchemists, with the Dan furnace, the world is so big, where can't we go?hahahaha..."

"Oh, alchemist?" Ye Chen asked deliberately. "Brother, the term 'alchemist' is rarely heard in our society. Brother, are you an alchemist?"

'Hehehe... Little brother, you are pretending to be confused with me!' Master Chen glanced at Ye Chen obliquely, "With your method of distinguishing pills and your understanding of various medicinal materials, do you know the alchemist? Today's young people, if they don't pretend to be forced for a day, they will feel uncomfortable?'

Since Ye Chen was hiding it, Master Chen would not pierce it, and followed Ye Chen's words. "Little brother, this world is not as simple as ordinary people see. Beneath the gorgeous cloak of this world, there are too many mysteries and mysteries hidden!"

After a pause, Master Chen lowered his voice and said to Ye Chen in an extremely mysterious tone. "Little brother, I'll give you an example... For example, do you believe that there are ghosts in this world?"

"Poof——!" Ye Chen was drinking tea, and when he heard Master Chen say so much, he almost didn't laugh, and directly squirted out a sip of tea. "Believe, believe, I believe that there are ghosts in this world. ”

Liu Ruxin's expression also became a little strange - how could Mr. Ye doubt the theory of ghosts and gods? He himself is a little expert at catching ghosts!

"Ahem... The topic is far away. Master Chen coughed dryly. "Little brother, I won't tell you, just your brother and me, in today's society, we must be regarded as alchemists. What kind of master of Chinese medicine, pharmacist or whatever, compared with your brother and me, that is a weak scum! But what! Put your brother and me, thousands of years ago, when the pill culture was at its peak, it could only be a miscellaneous little guy, not even an apprentice! Little brother, do you understand?"

"Oh, I see. Ye Chen nodded thoughtfully. In other words, the alchemy civilization, developed to the present, has almost tended to decline. The lineage is almost severed. So, brother, you are now equivalent to the meaning that there are no tigers in the mountains, and the monkeys are the overlords, right?"

Ye Chen's heart moved—what about me? I'm a junior alchemist!

"Little brother, you can't say that your parable is wrong. Master Chen said solemnly. "Don't say it, it's quite apt!"

Liu Ruxin was on the side, and she was amused by the conversation between the old and the young.

"Little brother, just now, the elder brother said that he wanted to ask you about the elixir, this is not a joke. Master Chen's expression suddenly became extremely solemn and serious, and his eyes were hot!

"Huh?" Ye Chen was slightly stunned.

"Little brother, if you can solve this problem for my brother, then how about I give you a good Dan furnace, brother?" Master Chen said in a deep voice.

"What's the problem?" Ye Chen asked.

"Little brother, it's like this, your elder brother and my ancestor have a Gu Dan, which has been passed down. Master Chen said solemnly. "This Gu Dan is absolutely extraordinary! However, your brother and I are only a shallow learner, and I have rummaged through ancient books, and I can't make a fuss about the medicinal effects and ingredients of this Gu Dan. I don't even know the name of this ancient dan. ”

"Even though he knew that this ancient pill was incomparably precious, and it might even be a panacea, he didn't dare to take it at will. Because, the more advanced the elixir, the more exquisite. If not taken properly, the body will be damaged. There is still a possibility of death!"

"Gu Dan?" Ye Chen frowned.

"Yes, little brother, according to the codex of the sages of the Chen family, this Gu Dan is at least more than a thousand years old. It should come from the heyday of the pill culture. In modern society, I am afraid that no one has been able to refine this elixir for a long time. Master Chen's eyes lit up. "Gu Dan must have a miraculous effect! It is a hundred times more precious than any antique in the world! It is a priceless treasure!"

"Understood. My brother wants me to distinguish Dan. Ye Chen smiled.

Priceless treasure? If it is a thousand years ago, it can indeed be said to be a priceless treasure. However, you can't tell this pill, and it's useless!

Eat but don't dare to eat, sell and reluctant to sell, it's completely chicken ribs. It can only be passed down from generation to generation as a flashy family heirloom.

"Hahahaha... Chen Song, you're talking nonsense again!" A heroic man's voice came from outside the door.

"Huh?" Master Chen's expression changed suddenly, and a fierce look flashed in his eyes.

In the blink of an eye, another old man in Tang costume, Shi Shiran walked in.

This old man in Tang costume, both in age and temperament, is very similar to Master Chen.

On him, there was also a faint overflow of medicinal gas.

He speaks Mandarin and listens to the accent, so he shouldn't be from Sugar City, or even from Sichuan Province.

Ye Chen quietly opened his yin and yang eyes and observed, just like Master Chen, there was also a masculine and violent energy flow in the body of this old man in Tang costume, which was constantly running.

It's just that the energy flow in the body of this old man in Tang costume is a little thicker than that of Master Chen.

"He Yiming, you're here!" Master Chen's eyes were gloomy, as if the old man in Tang costume in front of him was his enemy.

"The five-year period has arrived, shouldn't I, He Yiming, come?" The old man in Tang costume, 'He Yiming', sat down swaggeringly, and then, with a condescending look, looked at Ye Chen. "Young man, what Chen Song said just now is extremely shameless, don't listen to his words. ”

"Huh?" Ye Chen was confused.

"He wants you to discern Dan... Hahaha..."He Yiming laughed. "Yes, the Chen family does have a Gu Dan, which has been passed down to this day. However, that Gu Dan is jointly owned by the Chen family and my He family!"

"Back then, my He family and Chen family were both Danyao families. The friendship between the two families is not bad. By chance, the two of us found a Gu Dan at the same time. In order not to spoil the relationship between the two families. The ancestors of the two families discussed and decided that this Gu Dan would be handed over to the descendants of the two families and take turns to keep it!"

"First by one family, keep it for five years, and if it is still not possible to discern the ancient dan within five years, it will be handed over to another family. The other, which was also a five-year period, could not be understood, and Gu Dan changed hands again. And so on and so forth, from generation to generation. ”

Hearing this, Ye Chen nodded.

I see!

"Hey, hundreds of years have passed, Gu Dan has been changing hands between the He family and the Chen family, and no one has been able to understand this Dan. He Yiming also shook his head in distress. "Today is the last day of the Chen family's five-year period! Chen Song, hand over the Gu Dan to me to take away! Five years later, my He family, if it is still difficult to identify this Dan, you can come and get it again!"

As he spoke, He Yiming stretched out his right hand, spread his palm, and made a asking posture.

"I understand, the Chen family, the He family, which one can penetrate the Gu Dan, then, which one owns the Gu Dan, right?" Ye Chen smiled.

"Exactly!" Chen Song and He Yiming said in unison.

"He Yiming, don't worry, I, Chen Song, will definitely abide by the ancestral teachings, but... The five-year period of my Chen family has not yet arrived. Gu Dan, I have to wait until after 0:00 midnight tonight to hand it over to you. Chen Song's eyes narrowed slightly. "I'm from the Chen family, and I still have time. ”

"Hahahaha... Chen Song, do you really want this stinky boy to distinguish Dan for you?" He Yiming seemed to have heard the funniest joke in the world.

"Why not?" Chen Song also smiled. "My little brother, the art of distinguishing the Dan is amazing! Maybe, he can understand this Dan for my Chen family!"

"Come on!" He Yiming was extremely disdainful. "The He and Chen families, how many talented alchemists in the past dynasties, Gu Dan who has been incomprehensible all his life, today, a kid who has no hair can also make a fuss?"

"Little brother, I'm sorry for you!" Chen Song had pinned his last shred of hope on Ye Chen.

Ye Chen looked at He Yiming, who had an arrogant face, and then at Chen Song, who had an eager expression, and nodded. "Okay, Gu Dan will show me. ”

Chen Song nodded, stood up, and walked to a corner of the study.

There is a safe there.

Chen Song blocked his back, blocking the sight of Ye Chen, Liu Ruxin, and Nahe Yiming.

Chen Song tinkered for a few minutes, and the safe clicked open.

I saw that he cautiously took out a beautiful and simple wooden box from the safe.

Chen Song held the wooden box, walked to Ye Chen's side, and untied a rope from his neck, on which was tied an extremely old key.

Chen Song held the key in his hand, inserted it into the lock hole on the wooden box, and twisted it slightly.

Click——!

The box opened.

In an instant, the incredibly strong medicinal fragrance came to the face!

The entire study, every inch of the air, is filled with medicinal gas!

The rolling medicinal fragrance makes people smell a little, and there is a feeling of lightness all over the body.

Ye Chen had an illusion, as if he was smelling the fragrance of medicine, and the filth on his body would be removed.

'Gu Dan! Sure enough, it is worthy of its name! This must be the product of the pill culture in the most glorious period!' Ye Chen's heart was extremely affirmative.

"Little brother, please distinguish Dan!" Chen Song's eyes were full of expectation and hope!

Ye Chen fixed his eyes and saw that in the wooden box, on top of the satin paved, there was a pale green, longan-sized, very simple elixir!

"Okay, I'll try. Ye Chen stretched out his hand, picked up the pill, put it on the tip of his nose, sniffed it, but his eyes narrowed slightly.

At this time, Chen Song, He Yiming, and Liu Ruxin all stared at Ye Chen with straight eyes.

The atmosphere in the study was unusually quiet, only the indissolvable medicinal fragrance was slowly floating.
