Mu Ying quietly returned to the Xianyun Sect, and no one except Mu Jin and Situ Zheng knew her identity. And after the head of Situ arranged her identity, Mu Ying took this ordinary face the next day and went to the Tiandan Hall in the name of the miscellaneous servant Zhang Xiaohua.
"Who are you, and why have I never seen you?"
Mu Ying was moving a batch of spiritual herbs to the medicinal herb room of the Tiandan Hall when he saw a male cultivator looking at him with some curiosity, and then asked.
"My name is Zhang Xiaohua." Mu Ying pretended to smile innocently, "These days, the amount of spirit grass consumed by the Heavenly Dan Hall is too much, and Senior Uncle Fang assigned me to come over to manage these spirit grasses. ”
Mu Ying's sharp eyes found that when he said the three words "Zhang Xiaohua", the corners of the male cultivator's mouth on the opposite side were obviously twitching, obviously because of her vulgar name.
Mu Ying was also speechless, I don't know what Master Situ thought, and he actually gave her such a name.
Could it be that he had a bad taste and deliberately teased her?
"I see." The male cultivator nodded suddenly, "I am a disciple of the Tiandan Palace, my name is Cao Hai, and it was originally the job of me and another senior brother to manage this warehouse, but that senior brother suddenly felt a little unwell last night, and I think it was because of this that Senior Uncle Fang sent you over." ”
His senior brother was indeed suddenly unwell, but Mu Ying knew that this was the handiwork of the head of Situ, if he was not unwell, then how could Mu Ying enter this warehouse as a matter of course?
"Yes, although I know a little about spirit grass, I don't know much about managing the treasury, and I have to trouble Senior Brother Cao for guidance these days." Mu Ying said modestly with a smile.
"You? Know anything about spirit grass? Cao Hai was a little surprised when he heard this, and he felt a little ridiculous. There are so many kinds of spiritual grasses, and it is me, and it is only after thirty years of working in this Heavenly Dan Hall that I have slowly gained some understanding. But you may not dare to say that you understand, as a newcomer, you dare to say that you know about Lingcao? Cao Hai shook his head and smiled as he spoke, "You are diligent, talk less and move more, and ask me if you don't understand anything, none of these things can be wrong." If something happens, then Master Wen won't spare you! ”
"Master Wen?" Mu Ying pretended not to understand.
"Exactly, Master Wen is now in charge of the Tiandan Palace's chores. I am very serious about my work, and I can't see anything happen in the Tiandan Palace. Cao Hai turned his head and said to Mu Ying while sorting out the storage shelves.
"I remember, the Tiandan Hall used to be Master Du's sect...... Mu Ying seemed to be a little puzzled.
"Master Du......" A gloating smile suddenly appeared on Cao Hai's face. He offended people who shouldn't have been offended. Where can you manage the Heavenly Pill Hall anymore? Now he either stays in the house all day to make alchemy, or he is not in the sect, but he rarely appears in front of people. ”
Regarding how Master Du offended the people, Cao Hai didn't say it explicitly, but Mu Ying instantly understood.
Master Du, also known as Du Tanghong, once slandered Mu Ying for stealing, and later took a fake to apologize to Mu Ying. He didn't care what happened after that. But now it seems that his life is not so good.
This is still because of the high grade of his alchemy, if it weren't for that. Then he may not even be able to keep the sect.
Whether it is Mu Jin or Mu Ying's two senior brothers, they are all very protective masters, they are very displeased with Du Tanghong because of that incident, and Senior Brother Bo Ming, the master of the Tiandan Palace, was also furious afterwards, Du Tanghong had this ending, and he also caused himself.
"I heard that there are a lot of spiritual grasses used in the hall recently, this should be for cultivating those new disciples, right?" Mu Ying lowered his eyes and didn't ask him about Du Tanghong again, but turned the topic back to those disciples.
"Isn't it?" Cao Hai sighed, "The disciples who came this time are the most in so many years, in the past, the good seedlings of alchemy were all struggling to squeeze to Danxiang Mountain, this year is good, seven or eight out of ten have come to Xianyun Sect!" Therefore, this spirit grass was used like flowing water, and it was soon gone. Speaking of which, all this is because of Yunyi Zhenren, if it weren't for Yunyi Zhenren to be outstanding, how could we receive so many well-qualified disciples? ”
"Yes, most of these people are here for Yunyi Zhenren." Mu Ying's face did not change his face and boasted, and then he seemed to ask Cao Hai inadvertently: "It's just that I don't know who is the most outstanding among these disciples, and who will be favored by Yunyi Zhenren and accepted as a disciple?" ”
The two talked for a while, but they were a little familiar, and Mu Ying's attitude was quite gentle, and he seemed to be very respectful to Cao Hai, so as soon as he was proud, he also boasted, "Hey, don't say it, there are really a lot of good qualifications in this batch of disciples, and there is also a fire-based single spirit root genius among them!" His name is Yan Nan, and he is the most talented in alchemy. In addition to him, there are several disciples of the Twin Spirit Roots, such as Chai Fan, Zhang Jingzhi, and Xu Maoshan, and their qualifications are also quite good. However, if you talk about diligence and hard work, it should be Yan Tong, although he is only a three-spirit root, but his understanding is not bad, and he also studies alchemy the most on weekdays. ”
When Mu Ying said it, he listened carefully and wrote down all the names of the people he said, but when he heard the name Yan Tong, Mu Ying paused when he was sorting out the medicinal materials in his hand.
"Okay, you hurry up and finish the materials here, I have to take a few materials and send them over, it will be Master Wen's teaching time in a while, and they will be tested on the spot for their ability to refine the spirit grass into medicinal liquid, so it can't be delayed."
After Cao Hai finished telling Mu Ying, he looked out, and then went out in a hurry.
Teaching? Exam school?
Mu Ying's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she ignored what Cao Hai had just said to let her finish the materials quickly, and went out directly after him.
“…… Yes, it's all here. ”
When Mu Ying walked to the main hall of the Tiandan Palace, he happened to see Cao Hai respectfully talking to a male cultivator, the male cultivator looked at the back very energetically, after Cao Hai finished speaking, the man bent down to check the spirit grass, so he nodded to Cao Hai.
After reading this, the man turned around and said something to a steward standing beside him, and then the steward distributed all the materials sent by Cao Hai to the disciples present.
In this way, Mu Ying also saw his face and found that this Master Wen looked to be about forty-five years old, with a more restrained temperament and seemed to be relatively gentle. Compared with Du Tanghong, who took off and was domineering, there is no doubt that this Master Wen has more eyes.
There were about fifty disciples sitting in the hall, looking at their ages ranging from a few years old to their teens, looking at these rather young children, Mu Ying couldn't help but be in a trance.
"Huh, Zhang Xiaohua?"
After Cao Hai completed the task, he stepped aside, but he didn't expect to see Mu Ying coming over in a blink of an eye, so he hurriedly walked over and said in an unkind tone: "Didn't I tell you to finish sorting out the materials, why did you run out so quickly?" ”
"Senior Brother Cao, I haven't met Master Wen before, and I'm more interested in these new disciples, so I came over to take a look." Mu Ying said embarrassedly: "Don't worry, when I finish reading and going back, I will sort out those spirit grasses immediately, and I won't delay things." ”
"Well, let's take a look, it's okay." Cao Hai originally wanted to say something, but after thinking about it, he gave up, standing next to Mu Ying and looking at those disciples together, "When the materials are all distributed, Master Wen will give a demonstration to the disciples, and then they should do it themselves, and Master Wen will evaluate it." ”
Sure enough, not long after Cao Hai finished speaking, Master Wen spoke.
"Everyone now has three materials in their hands, Sun Flame Flower, Qingyue Grass, and Ice Crystal Rock, what we are going to do today is not to use the alchemy furnace, but just use our hands to refine them into medicinal liquids......
The price of these three materials is not high, and it is considered to be a more commonly used material when refining low-grade elixirs, but although they are all low-grade spirit grasses, the difficulty of refining them is not the same.
The difficulty of the Sun Flame Flower is the lowest, the Qingyue Grass is considered medium, and the Ice Crystal Rock is more difficult. With three kinds of spirit grass and three kinds of difficulty, it is easier to see how high and low the level of the disciples is.
"Didn't you say that there are a lot of disciples this year, why are there only fifty here?" Mu Ying watched and whispered about Cao Hai next to him.
"This is Master Wen's personal teaching, how can a disciple with average qualifications be qualified to come here?" Cao Hai glanced at Mu Ying, as if he was surprised and puzzled by her for asking such a simple question, "The people who can come here are all disciples who Master Wen thinks have a good understanding, and in the future, Master Yunyi will accept apprentices, and they will inevitably be selected among these fifty, and those who have not even entered the top fifty are absolutely hopeless." ”
"Oh, that's right." Mu Ying nodded, not minding Cao Hai's somewhat unpleasant tone when he spoke.
"The Sun Flame Grass is a fire-type spirit grass, which is quite affinity with fire, and only a little spiritual energy is needed to refine it into a medicinal liquid when refining it. Qingyue grass is neutral, and the difficulty is medium. This ice crystal rock is a water-based spirit grass, if it is slightly improperly refined, then the medicinal properties of the entire spirit grass will be destroyed, so it is the most difficult. ”
"Refining is part of it, but the most test of the alchemist's level in the whole process is to remove impurities, make the liquid medicine more pure, the more impurities are removed, the stronger the effect of the final liquid medicine will be, and the less toxins will accumulate in the body after the monk takes it into the body."
"Next, I will refine these three kinds of spirit grass separately, you and watch carefully, don't ask questions on the way, after I finish refining, you can only ask me if you have questions, after asking, you need to refine the spirit grass in your hands yourself."
Master Wen was very meticulous when he explained, and after finishing speaking, he saw that all the disciples nodded one after another, and then he began to pick up the spirit grass and start refining.
Mu Ying nodded while looking at it, feeling that this Master Wen was a very serious master, he was really explaining to the children carefully, and he didn't want to perfunctory them.
"Master Wen doesn't give lectures very often, but every time he finishes a class, these children benefit a lot, so what they like the most is to listen to Master Wen's class." Seeing that Mu Ying's appearance was quite serious, Cao Hai also explained to Mu Ying while watching. (To be continued.) )
