Chapter 117: Medicine Boy
"Of course I have."
Ye Zi looked at Tang Yan and said solemnly, "Do you know how I cleared my suspicions?" ”
Hearing Ye Zi's words, Tang Yan's face was full of strangeness, "You mean that strange induction?" ”
Ye Zi didn't think it was strange about Tang Yan's suspicions, if it were her, she probably wouldn't believe that a person could have such a strange induction, right?
Ye Zi didn't say anything more to the other party, and she couldn't fully explain this matter, she was just holding a tentative mind before, and now there is no point in showing anything.
Now that she was just a Qi Refining Stage cultivator, what was the use of showing a talent that was different from others? It's not really a strong strength, but it may attract jealousy.
The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it. She didn't want her little sapling to die on a mature tree.
In a flash of thought, Ye Zi raised his eyes and smiled at her, "What does it matter if it's true or not?" If the herbs that were lost in the pharmacy a year ago are found on her, how do you think things will develop? ”
Tang Yan was obviously moved, but her face still showed suspicion, "What evidence do you have to prove that the loss of medicinal herbs is related to her?" Besides, even if it was related to her, how could she still carry things with her after so long? Are you stupid or is she stupid? ”
Ye Zi didn't answer her immediately, but turned his head sideways, casually picked up a blade of grass under his feet, and sniffed it carefully, it was a phantom heart grass.
Phantom heart grass is a half-poisonous and half-medicinal spiritual herb, and the flowers and leaves can be refined to remove karma, habits, and illusions of the Qingxin Pill and the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The rhizome is used to refine the nightmare pill that causes people to hallucinate and trigger demons.
This grass has no seeds, it is planted through the root system, there is no such herb in her space, it seems that she has to find a way to get one into the space.
"Everyone always has her own reasons for everything, just like I haven't figured out why the other party is so bold and dares to touch the medicinal materials in the warehouse, after this incident, I understand a little, she should have something behind her, right?" Ye Zi said lightly.
"I don't need to say that, of course I do." As she spoke, Tang Yan's face gradually turned cold, which made Ye Zi a little confused.
"Alright. Don't go around in circles, just say what you have to say. Tang Yan had obviously lost her patience.
For Tang Yan's straightforwardness, Ye Zi couldn't ask for it. She didn't want to go around and around, so she just said in a few words that she was good to leave.
"Don't ask me how the news came about. I just tell you that Xu Xiangqin has a batch of medicinal materials on her body at this time, if you hurry up and take someone to search for it, you may be able to catch her handle, if the time drags on for a long time. That's not for sure. ”
Tang Yan examined the leaves with sharp eyes, and asked seriously, "How do you prove that what you say is true?" ”
Ye Zi smiled and shook his head, "I don't have to prove it." Let's work backwards, what would you do if you did what I said and didn't find anything? ”
Tang Yan's lips moved, and before she could say anything, she was interrupted by Ye Zi, "I guess, according to the elders of the hall, they will punish you for false accusations." Get out of Baicaotang again, right? ”
Tang Yan looked at the leaves for a moment and was silent.
"However, you are the old man of Baicaotang, and you have credit for Baicaotang, and the elders will not really deal with it according to the rules of the hall. It's like Xu Xiangqin instructed his subordinates to destroy so many flying grasses, but they were only fined for one year. ”
Tang Yan still didn't speak, but the interest on his face became stronger and stronger, and there was even a hint of a smile in his eyes.
The leaves continue to gush. "You go directly to the elder or the master of the hall to act quietly, if you find out that it is a misunderstanding, you can also plead for yourself, as for the excuse, you have to think of it yourself. I don't guarantee how it will turn out. However, if the stolen medicinal materials were really found on Xu Xiangqin's body, what would the result be? I think about it, at that time, the people behind her not only would not come forward to defend her, but would even fall into the well and can't wait to drive her away, so that it is only right to prevent future troubles. ”
Tang Yan listened. There was silence for a moment before he sneered at Ye Zi: "You say a good thing, but what if nothing is found, and I am kicked out of Baicaotang because of false accusations against the steward?" ”
"Risks and opportunities coexist, if you want to create opportunities, how can you not take a little risk?" Ye Zi looked up at the sky, "The opportunity is fleeting, it depends on whether you can seize it." ”
"What do you really want?"
"Of course I want to give myself a Qingning. I don't want to be planted today and framed tomorrow, how troublesome it is, how good it is to solve it at once. ”
After speaking, Ye Zi looked at the Phantom Heart Grass in front of him in a comfortable mood, "This Phantom Heart Grass grows so happily, Tang Yao has good skills." ”
Tang Yan's gaze also fell on the Phantom Heart Grass and asked, "You want this?" ”
Ye Zi nodded calmly, "I'm not greedy, one plant is enough." ”
"Yes. If everything goes well, I will send it to you personally in half a month. ”
"It's a deal."
Immediately, the two looked at each other and smiled.
After this head of the leaves returned to his own medicine field, Fan Dandan had already collected one-third of Su Ye. Seeing that Ye Zi was an hour late, she muttered dissatisfiedly:
"Ye'er, you have also learned to be lazy!"
Ye Zi smiled apologetically at the other party, "It's a little delayed, you rest, and I'll do the rest." After speaking, she took out the jade shovel and prepared to collect Su Ye, but a voice suddenly sounded behind her.
"Ye Yaogong, Master Xing is invited."
Ye Zi hurriedly turned around, it turned out to be Deacon Yu. He is a member of the deacon's hall, and he is usually responsible for assisting the elders and the hall master in all kinds of trivial matters.
"Deacon Yu, what is the matter with Master Xing looking for me?"
Deacon Yu shook his head indifferently, "I don't know, you better hurry up." ”
Ye Zi looked at Su Ye in front of him in embarrassment, and then looked at Fan Dandan, who was full of grievances, and discussed: "Can you wait for me to finish collecting Su Ye?" ”
"This ......" Deacon Yu fell on Fan Dandan, who was pouting and glaring, "Isn't there still her?" ”
Fan Dandan, who was named, was not lazy anymore, so he reluctantly took over the work, "Ye'er, go ahead, I am here." ”
"Can you do it?" Ye Zi twisted his eyebrows and asked, not that he was worried that the other party would be tired. The work of collecting herbs is not tiring, it just requires patience and meticulousness. Fan Dandan has always been nervous, and she is worried that the other party will not be able to collect it properly, which will lead to the deterioration of the quality of the finished Su Ye.
If the quality is reduced, their harvest will also be greatly reduced.
Fan Dandan waved his hand impatiently, "Okay!" It's a little bit of a trifle that doesn't bother me, so go ahead. ”
Deacon Yu here couldn't help but urge again. Ye Zi was helpless, so she had to tell her uneasily: "Then you be careful, the roots must be complete." ”
"Alright, alright, I know."
Only then did Ye Zi put his mind at ease. Turning his head to Deacon Yu and smiling, "I'm sorry, I've kept Deacon Yu waiting for a long time, let's go." ”
It didn't take long to arrive outside the deacon hall, and Deacon Yu stopped and said to Ye Zi, "You can go in by yourself, I still have something to do." Leave. ”
"Thank you."
When she entered the deacon hall, she found that in addition to Xing Haodong, there was also a handsome man in a gold-patterned white robe sitting in the hall.
At this time, the two were talking softly, and as the leaves stepped in, their eyes quickly fell on her.
"I've seen Hall Master Xing."
Ye Zi stepped forward and saluted Xing Haodong, she didn't know the man next to her, but she still nodded politely at the other party.
The man also smiled at her, and suddenly it was like a spring breeze, which made people can't help but shake their heads. Ye Zi quietly pinched his palms and quickly came back to his senses. Turning his head to look at Xing Haodong, he asked:
"Hall Master Xing, what are you looking for me?"
Xing Haodong pointed to the white-robed man beside him, "This is the Seven-Rank Alchemy Grandmaster-Yun Zhenren, who recently came to our Baicao Hall with the intention of working with other alchemists to develop pills. Helplessly, there was a lack of a medicine boy by his side, and yesterday, under the strong recommendation of Steward Lin, Yun Zhenren came to me and wanted you to be his medicine boy. ”
Seven-Rank Alchemy Grandmaster!
Ye Zi was slightly shocked, and his gaze involuntarily fell on the white-robed man. He looks young. He looks handsome, with a touch of elegance all over his body, no matter how he looks at it, he doesn't look like a real person from Jindan, and he is still a real person from a seven-grade alchemy master!
All the alchemists of the Hundred Grass Hall. The highest grade is only the eighth-grade alchemy master, it is said that it is difficult to break through the nine-rank alchemy, not only to have superb alchemy skills, but also to comprehend the Dan Dao along the way, in order to get lucky.
And breaking through the alchemy grandmaster is even more difficult. To become a qualified alchemy master, you need to refine a furnace of the Great Luo Pei Infant Pill, which is an elixir that helps break through the Yuan Infant realm. It takes at least three days and three nights to refine one hundred and eighty-eight kinds of fine medicinal herbs.
This not only requires the alchemist to have sufficient cultivation to support it, but also requires the subtle control of fire control, the refining of herbs, and the fusion of herbs to reach a certain level.
"Why did you choose me to be your medicine boy?" Ye Zi asked at the other party in surprise.
Yun Qi got up and came to Ye Zi gently, only to find that the other party was so tall, she had to raise her head half to see the other party's face, converted to modern times, it is estimated to be one meter eight?
"Last night, Steward Lin learned that I was looking for a medicine boy, and strongly recommended you to me, saying that you are familiar with the properties and effects of various herbs, and you can memorize the entire collection of herbs, and you also have a special sensing ability?"
In fact, she can not only memorize the collection of herbs, but also the book of herbs has been almost read by her, at least about eighty percent of the herbs on it are familiar to her.
"If you say that you can memorize the herb set, it is the forest steward's praise, but I know a little bit about the herbs mentioned above." Ye Zi responded modestly, "As for the sixth sense, does this have anything to do with alchemy?" ”
Yun Qi looked at Ye Zi with great interest, "Can you feel the difference between the same herbs with this strange sense?" ”
"Of course." It's all too easy for her, but how can she tell others her hole cards, "However, sometimes it can be a little off." ”
Yun Qi nodded with satisfaction, "This is already very good. I've been working on a new type of pill recently, and I need a medicine boy to help me identify the pros and cons of various herbs, would you like to? ”
To be honest, Ye Zi has been waiting for this opportunity, and she usually shows some strength in front of Lin Xiang, intentionally or unintentionally. And Lin Xiang really didn't disappoint her, and helped her get the position of the medicine boy.
However, the person in front of her was a seventh-grade alchemy master who could be regarded as the top in the entire Dongchuan, could she really do it?
Everything came too well and too suddenly, and Ye Zi was a little overwhelmed and hesitated.
"How...... You don't want to? Yun Qi seemed to see her hesitation.
"It's not...... It's just that although I have mastered a certain amount of herbal knowledge, but I have never been a medicine boy, you are a seven-grade grandmaster, and the elixir you refine must be very extraordinary, I am afraid that I will have omissions, and it is a small matter to live up to your trust, in case it affects the refining of the elixir, I can't afford it. ”
Xing Haodong on the side saw that Ye Zi was so modest and knowledgeable, and he originally had less mustard in his heart about Ye Zi, so he opened his mouth to persuade her: "Ye Yaogong, you don't have to be too afraid, many people who want to be Yun Zhenren's medicine boy don't have a chance, since Yun Zhenren has taken a fancy to you, he must have his reason, you just need to work hard." ”
Yun Qi also nodded and said: "Hall Master Xing is right, you don't have to be nervous, the medicine boy is easy to say, with your solid knowledge of herbal medicine, coupled with a certain amount of understanding and induction, I think you will do well." In case, if you really can't do well, I can't change people again. ”
Seeing that the other party said so, Ye Zi naturally would no longer refuse hypocritically, anyway, her purpose was to become a real alchemist, and it was also a good thing for her to be able to follow a top alchemist.
Before, she thought that if she bought a Dan furnace and mastered the knowledge of herbal medicine, she would definitely be able to become an alchemist with her own efforts and research.
But the idea is beautiful, but the reality is cruel. After she worked hard for half a year and consumed countless medicinal materials, but she didn't even refine half a furnace of pills, she realized that it was not easy to become a real alchemist.
The first is fire control. The fire of alchemy is not as big and hot as possible, different medicinal materials, its melting temperature is different, and when it is fused with other medicinal liquids, the melting temperature must be finely regulated, which is not introduced in the book at all.
The second is dosing. The order of the medicine is written in the book, but it does not go into detail about whether the two herbs are fused together, whether they are completely boiled, or how long they boil before throwing a herb.
Moreover, the medicinal properties of each herb are different, some need to retain its complete medicinal properties, and some only need to retain thirty percent.
In a word, becoming an alchemist is really not as easy as it says.
Ye Zi also understood why the cultivation resources issued by a cultivation family like the Ye family were spiritual tea, not pills.
Ye Zi happily responded to the medicine boy who was a Yun Zhenren. (To be continued.) )
