Volume II, Chapter 17: The Ancient Scrolls

Immediately afterwards, Yi Cheng also looked at several nearby shops, but did not encounter anything satisfactory, and finally stopped at a pharmacy called Yaoxiangtang and bought a lot of elixirs to restore spiritual power and heal injuries.

Although these can't be compared with the Spirit Returning Pill, they can also recover three or four percent of spiritual power after taking it, which is several times faster than absorbing spirit stones.

As for those elixirs that assist in cultivation, Yi Cheng can't use them for the time being, but he didn't buy them, and Yi Cheng also inquired about the Tsukidan from the pharmacy shopkeeper.

The owner of the pharmacy smiled bitterly and said: "Daoist friends are joking, how sought-after the Zhuji Dan is, it has been ten years since the last time the Zhuji Medicinal Materials Secret Land was opened, how can there be a Zhuji Dan left until now, generally only after the opening of the Secret Land, there are individual Zhuji Dan outflow, but that is not something that we can get in these pharmacies, and it is only sold at auctions." ”

When Yi Cheng heard this, he no longer demanded it!

Leaving the pharmacy, Yi Cheng prepared to go to the restaurant here to taste the taste of spiritual wine, firstly to satisfy his appetite, and secondly, to pay tribute to Wang Wei.

Yi Cheng walked through Fangcai's street, asked where the restaurant was, and came all the way to Qixian Building.

Sitting down on the second floor, he asked for a pot of spirit wine, a few plates of dishes made of demon beasts and elixirs, Yi Cheng picked up the wine jug and poured himself a glass, put a cup opposite him, and also filled it with wine.

Yi Cheng raised his glass and said to the empty seat opposite: "Senior Brother Wang Wei, I am here to toast you with a glass today, but unfortunately there is no one to drink the wine at present." ”

After saying that, he drank it all and spilled the glass of wine on the ground again.

A glass of wine into his stomach, Yi Cheng felt that his stomach was hot, and a thick spiritual power flowed in his limbs, and he immediately held his mind and absorbed the magic technique.

After drinking a pot of wine, Yi Cheng felt that it was more effective than absorbing a hundred spirit stones by himself, and those dishes cooked with demon beasts and spirit materials were also delicious in the world, and they were helpful for cultivation.

However, Yi Cheng was already refining qi at this time, and the meridians could no longer contain more spiritual power, and these fine wines and delicacies were just sacrifices to the temple of the five internal organs.

After Yi Cheng finished drinking, he was going to find a quiet place to retreat for a few days, and refined the few magic weapons he bought today.

The secret land is about to open, although those disciples in the Qi cultivation period have no threat to him, but the secret land is full of spiritual power, and there are no high-level monks to go all year round, there are many second-order demon beasts, and third-order demon beasts will occasionally appear, Yi Cheng doesn't want to become the mouth food of demon beasts carelessly.

Yi Cheng called the guy, settled the money for the wine and food, and after going downstairs, he was about to leave Yungang City and return to the mountain gate, and as soon as he walked to the hall on the first floor, he saw that the guy here was arguing with someone at the door.

Yi Fei was not interested in paying attention to this, but he heard a familiar voice over there shouting: "Xiao Xianchang, the little one has something to look for you!" ”

Yi Cheng looked over there when he heard this, and saw that the guy who was entertaining him in Baohua Building today was over there, and was stopped by the guy in the restaurant, Yi Cheng was curious about what this young man was looking for him.

So he walked over and asked, "You're a buddy from Baohua Building, do you have anything to do with me?" ”

Meng Yan saw that Yi Cheng remembered himself, and said with a happy face: "Thanks to the immortal chief, I remember the little one, I wonder if the immortal chief can take a step to speak?" After speaking, his eyes were full of anticipation.

Yi Cheng saw it, firstly, he was curious, and secondly, he had a deep affection for mortals, and this young man reminded him of the kind of expectations he had for his master back then.

So Yi Cheng said: "Lead the way ahead!" ”

Meng Yan was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly took Yi Cheng through the streets and alleys, walked for a quarter of an hour, stopped in a narrow street, and came to a small courtyard in the depths of the alley.

Meng Yan said to Yi Cheng: "Immortal Chief, please come in, today I see that Immortal Chief is purchasing treasures, his bearing is extraordinary, and he does not despise mortals like other monks, so there is something I want to offer to Immortal Chief, and my father has been waiting for Immortal Chief in the house for a long time!" ”

Yi Cheng also understood the reason at this time, this Meng Yan should have something handed down from his ancestors and wanted to sell it to the monks, and the monks he usually met did not dare to trade easily for fear of being robbed, and he treated mortals without prejudice, so he brought himself here.

Yi Cheng nodded slightly, at this time, he also wanted to see what treasures the ancestor of the Meng family had left behind.

This courtyard is not spacious, there is only a front yard and a few low houses, Meng Yan took Yi Cheng to the central living room, and a middle-aged man in his forties was sitting there at this time.

The middle-aged man said to Yi Cheng: "There is Lao Xianchang who is here to drive, under Meng Renqian, his legs are inconvenient, and the immortal chief forgive me!" ”

Yi Cheng said: "It's okay, immortal cultivators are just more powerful mortals, I also lived in the mundane a few years ago, so I don't care about the opinions between these monks, you can just call me Xiao Yi." ”

When Meng Renqian heard this, he glanced at Meng Yan, his face was happy, Meng Renqian said: "Immortal Chang is polite, please come here to hear that Xian Chang is looking for treasures, my father used to be a monk in the foundation building period, but I never returned more than ten years ago, I accidentally broke my legs a few years ago, and I can only rely on Yan'er to support my family." ”

Speaking of this, he looked at his son, his face showed deep desolation and guilt, and then said: "My father once left a thing, which he found in an ancient cave in the vast mountain, all of which were recorded in ancient characters, due to the age, many of them have been lost, and I have not been able to cultivate since I was a child, so I have some interest in these ancient characters, so my father left this thing for me to translate, but unfortunately he never returned, so I wanted to sell this thing so that my father and son could live." It's just that in this cultivation realm, how dare we two mortals make a deal with the monk, until Xiao'er saw Xiao Xianchang, I invited you to come here. ”

After saying this, he asked Meng Yan to go to the house to pick up things.

Meng Yan took out a square jade box from the house after a moment and handed it to his father.

Meng Renqian opened the jade box and took out the contents and handed them to Yi Cheng. After Yi Cheng took it, he saw that this thing was a scroll written in some kind of animal skin, and the words used in it were all used tens of thousands of years ago, but Yi Cheng almost didn't know it, but the material of this animal skin was special, and it remained the same after so many years.

Yi Cheng put down the scroll and said to Meng Renqian: "Mr. Meng, I can't recognize these words, so I don't know the value of this scroll." ”

When Meng Renqian heard this, he said with a smile: "It's careless, at this time, I have been reading ancient books over the years, and although not all the translated things have been translated, they have also been translated into seventy or eighty percent, please take a look." ”

After speaking, he took out a paper booklet from the box and handed it to Yi Cheng.

Yi Cheng opened the booklet and looked at it, only to see that it was about the experience and skills of practicing alchemy, Yi Cheng had also seen some basic alchemy jade slips over the years, although he had not practiced it, but what was recorded in this booklet was very different from what was common now.

Nowadays, alchemy refiners are all based on fire-based spiritual power and borrowed from earth fire to refine, so only fire-based monks can become alchemist refiners, but this booklet says that any series of monks can be alchemists, and different materials must be refined with different spiritual power to achieve the best effect.

Yi Cheng looked at the narration and was fascinated unconsciously, and Meng Yan's father and son did not speak on the side, so as not to disturb Yi Cheng.

About half an hour later, Yi Cheng finished reading this booklet, he closed his eyes and thought about what he had just seen, and then said to Meng Renqian: "This thing is of great use to me, I don't know what you want to exchange?" ”
