Chapter 34: The Guardian's Appreciation
After Ning Zihao sorted out the information in his mind, he opened his red eyes, but at the moment he opened them. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Suddenly, a ghostly figure instantly appeared in front of Ning Zihao, and the speed was so fast that Ning Zihao didn't have time to react at all.
You're good, very good!
Only listening to the appreciative voice from this figure, Ning Zihao knew that this should be the gray-robed old man who guarded the Scripture Pavilion.
The old man provided Ning Zihao with two pills during Ning Zihao's reading, which greatly improved Ning Zihao's reading speed.
Hearing the old man's appreciative voice, Ning Zihao didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly bowed his hand to him: "Hello old man, thank you for helping twice." ”
What's your name?" the old man asked.
Back to the old man, my name is Ning Zihao, Ning Zihao replied respectfully.
You don't have to call me grandpa, just call me Shi Lao, young man, your patience and perseverance are really good! Nowadays, there are very few young people like you who can calm down.
I have guarded the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion for so many years, and the longest time I have been reading on the first floor is only three days, and it is only during the day, but you have been reading for five days and five nights without sleep, which is really impressive to the old man! Like other people who come here, they are either looking for powerful exercises or powerful martial arts, Shi Lao said with emotion in his words.
Shi Lao, you have won the award, I don't know anything about the cultivation world. Now that the door has provided us with so many books, I want to know more about it, maybe I will use it in the future, Ning Zihao said modestly.
Shi Lao looked at the young man in front of him so modestly, it was indeed rare, and he liked Ning Zihao more and more in his heart.
By the way, Shi Lao, I have been looking for a book that introduces various herbs, but after searching all over the layer, there is no systematic introduction. It's just that there are occasional introductions in some books, so I want to ask you, do we have this kind of book here, or is this kind of book still in the upper echelons?" Ning Zihao asked Shi Lao suspiciously.
You are actually interested in alchemy, Shi Lao was also very surprised when he heard this, you know, very few young people will learn this kind of profession, although this kind of profession is very respected, but how difficult it is to become a real alchemist. Today's young people are all in pursuit of strength, and it is really rare to see someone like Ning Zihao.
After thinking for a moment, Shi Lao said to Ning Zihao: "It's rare! It's rare to see such a young man, I'll help you! You come with me." ”
At this time, it was already the middle of the night, and there were only Shi Lao and Ning Zihao in the Scripture Pavilion, and even the one who registered at the door had already left.
Ning Zihao followed Shi Lao to the back wall on the first floor of the Hidden Scripture Pavilion, only to see Shi Lao pressing one hand on a certain part of the wall, and the wall touched by his palm was dented with a "magnetic" sound, and then he saw a hidden stone door open on the wall.
After Ning Zihao followed Shi Lao into the stone gate, he looked around, this should be a closed secret room, except for the wall with the door, there are a row of shelves on the other three walls, not only all kinds of precious books are placed on the shelves, but also some items that exude a sense of ancient vicissitudes.
I saw that Shi Lao took out a slightly yellowed book from the top of the bookshelf on the left at this time, and handed it to Ning Zihao, he took the book and saw that there were four big characters written on the book cover.
After seeing these four words, Ning Zihao's face instantly showed a happy expression, just by looking at the title of this book, he knew that it must be the same.
Sure enough, when you open the first page, you will see a row of catalogs of various herbs, which introduce the place where each herb grows, its shape, its effects, and its medicinal power and efficacy in different years.
Ning Zihao didn't have time to take a closer look, and hurriedly thanked Shi Lao with joy.
Then, just as Ning Zihao was about to turn around and leave, suddenly, Shun Lao's voice came from his mind.
Boy, in the corner of the bookshelf on the left, there is a black iron piece, try to get him over, Shun Lao reminded him.
When Ning Zihao heard Shun Lao's words, he was also surprised in his heart, what was it that made Shun Lao care so much. But he is also extremely entangled in his heart, he just took someone else's things, and he will have to ask for it again, which is indeed a little embarrassing.
At this time, Ning Zihao couldn't think too much, so he could only stubbornly open his mouth to Shi Lao and said: "Shi Lao, can I take a look at the black iron piece in the corner next to me, when you took the book just now, I saw that the pattern on this iron sheet is quite peculiar. ”
Shi Lao didn't feel anything when he heard Ning Zihao's words, he just said: "You mean that piece of black iron! It is something left by our first generation of founding ancestors, but it is useless, it has been stored here, you can see it if you want!"
Ning Zihao walked to the book and picked up the black iron piece from the corner, there was already a layer of dust on it, and it could be seen that no one had touched it for a long time.
Ning Zihao brushed off the dust with his sleeve and looked carefully, when Shun Lao's voice came: "Boy, there is a seal inside, and it can't be opened in a short time, so you'd better take it back, and I'll study it carefully." ”
After listening to Shun Lao's words, Ning Zihao didn't know how to speak, this was a relic of the ancestor of the Sunset Gate, he asked Shi Lao for it, and he felt that it was a bit excessive, but the matter had come to this, and he could only give it a try.
Then he said to Shi Lao: "Shi Lao, I like the strange patterns on this iron sheet very much, I want to borrow it back to study and study, I promise to return it after reading it." ”
Shi Lao listened to Ning Zihao's words, although he was surprised, but he didn't feel anything, anyway, this piece of iron has been placed here for so many years, and he didn't find any use, it was because it was the ancestral master's thing that it was put in the secret room.
Since the young man liked it, he simply gave it to him, even if the young man really found something, it was also someone's chance.
At this time, I only heard Shun Lao say: "Since you like it, I will give it to you!" In addition, I know that you like some strange things, but the old man still hopes that you will focus more on improving your strength, after all, with strength will you get the respect of others. ”
Thank you Shi Lao for your advice, the disciple must keep it in mind, Ning Zihao hurriedly thanked him.
After that, Ning Zihao put away the iron piece and returned to the hall on the first floor of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion with Shi Lao, and after saying goodbye to Shi Lao, he returned to his small courtyard alone at night.
As soon as he returned to the small courtyard, the voice of Shun Lao came to his mind: "Boy, don't you wonder why I asked you to get this black iron piece back." ”
Yes, could it be that Elder Shun found something special about this black iron piece? Ning Zihao asked suspiciously.
At this time, I only heard the voice of Shun Lao's answer: "Boy, do you know? This is a piece of extraterrestrial meteoric iron, the material is extremely hard, and it is an excellent material for refining, but this material has no reaction at all when calcined by ordinary flames, and it must be refined with different fires from heaven and earth." ”
According to your intentions, you have made me spend a long time, and the things I got back are not useless, let alone calcining with the different fires of heaven and earth, even I don't know where the strange fires of heaven and earth are. So this meteorite is a good thing, but I can only stare at it, Ning Zihao said helplessly.
Otherwise, this material is only the surface, and I mainly look at the inner stuff. There is a relatively powerful seal inside this extraterrestrial meteorite, and only by unlocking this seal can you know the contents inside.
A seal of this level can only be perceived by people with strong soul power, and ordinary people can see that it is just an ordinary piece of black iron, Shun Lao said slowly.
Elder Shun, the seal on this black iron piece is so powerful, do you want to use your soul power to unlock it? If you consume your soul power again, you will become even weaker Ning Zihao said with a worried expression.
It's certain that you want to consume soul power, but you don't have to worry, now that you have that "Encyclopedia of Medicinal Herbs", you can help me find some herbs to replenish soul power later, I am now that my soul source is damaged, I can only often supplement some herbs that nourish my soul, and when you become an alchemy master in the future, you can refine the soul-replenishing pill for me, and at that time, I can recover at any time without external drugs.
Ning Zihao listened to Shun Lao's words, and he also secretly made up his mind in his heart that he must improve his alchemy strength as soon as possible and refine the soul-replenishing elixir for Shun Lao as soon as possible. Ning Zihao didn't know at this time that the pill that Elder Shun needed was not an ordinary pill, and he still had a long way to go to successfully refine that level of pill.
