Chapter 29: Collecting Gold in the Sand

"Start tasting poison! Please go to the palace master and get it! "The master of ceremonies deliberately dragged out the word 'Shang', showing its supreme dignity.

Witnessing the disciples fall in front of Nakamaru one by one, Ishi can't wait to see this legendary Kamimaru. Of the more than 5,000 disciples of Shennong Palace, only seven disciples are qualified to taste this pill. What will it be like? How many disciples can fight its toxicity?

Seven white pills the size of mung beans were placed on Nong Qingyun's desk. They are like seven pure pearls, and like the eyes of seven devils.

"Wow, such a small pill looks pure and flawless, but it is extremely poisonous!" The stone couldn't help but sigh, and the mockery ensued.

"Cut! Anything that looks good on the outside is not a good thing, and you've always heard the phrase 'knowing people and knowing faces but not knowing hearts', right? The little beggar took out a steamed bun from his bosom that had been stained by his clothes.

"How can you have steamed buns on you?"

"I hid one up in the morning before I was full! Come on, I'm hungry after watching it for so long, so let's take a bite! ”

"Don't!"

"What? I don't think the steamed buns are dirty, right? The little beggar was displeased, but he still habitually rubbed the steamed bun on his body, and then stuffed the dirtier steamed bun into the stone hand, "I've wiped it for you, and now I'm satisfied!" ”

"No, not hungry!" The stone put the hand holding the steamed bun behind his back, and he couldn't see the stains on it.

"Hmph, I knew you didn't have the eyesight to see, just staring at those beautiful things."

"I ...... Too lazy to talk to you! The stone closed his mouth, lest he miss the process of tasting the poison on the pill. He was stunned by the taste of poison in the lower pill and the taste of the middle pill, and he concluded that the taste of poison in the upper pill would be the most wonderful thing he would ever see in his life.

"Shhhhhh The stone stared at the seven pills that were inconsistent, and no longer paid attention to the little beggar.

In front of the seven pills, the seven disciples had firm eyes and looked at death as if they were at home.

The cowardly black sheep, the arrogant clowns, and the incompetent wine bags have all been purged from their ranks. They are qualified to stand in front of Shangmaru They are the few in Shennong Palace, and they are the best among them.

They swallowed the upper pill as if it were delicious.

The sand in the hourglass slides slower than ever, and the toxins in the pill invade faster than ever. There were already four disciples who had behaved lightly from beginning to end in the last two rounds of assessments, and they began to twitch incessantly, foaming at the mouth.

Still, they stood with non-human willpower, even if their backs were hunched over the hills, and they were curled up as wrinkled as sacks.

Stone burst into tears, and he couldn't imagine where this will, which was harder than stone, came from.

From their flesh and blood bodies? Or is it something that can't be seen, touched, that can make decisions for them?

The stone has always done whatever it wants, and has never found such a thing in its own body. He never pressed himself to do something that was so painful that it was called "serious" or "meaningful."

He doesn't eat what he doesn't like, even if his mother makes it for him. He never reads, even though he knows someone who has been studying hard for ten years. He hated his father for forcing him to learn this and that, just because he didn't like others to arrange his life.

Has he been living a meaningless life for more than ten years? Why would someone in another place fight something desperately?

"Hey, you're crying!" The little beggar leaned over and put one hand on his shoulder, his eyes full of surprise and mockery.

"No, the sand got into the eyes!" The stone refused to admit it, and he rubbed his eyes desperately, hoping that they would immediately be so red that the little beggar would not dare to stare at them again.

Half an hour later, the four men finally collapsed, and they fell because they were unconscious, and their legs could not be controlled by them.

This time, Nong Qingyun shook his head regretfully, and asked them to be carried away and rescued with Baicao Dan. He knew that they would replace Bao Tiannu, Li Zigang and Yongmen Guang, and they were the future of Shennong Palace.

"Start detoxifying!" Bao Tiannu's lips were blue, and Li Zigang's forehead was covered with dense beads of sweat. Yongmen Guang was half-bent over, covering his head, and was fighting against vertigo. Obviously, Yongmen Guang is the weakest. All three of them took the antidote at the same time.

After a cup of tea, the master of ceremonies announced that the time was up and the first round of assessment was over.

The three of them have basically returned to normal on the surface, and Bao Tiannu and Li Zigang look a little more relaxed than Yongmenguang. However, this time there was no need to take a pulse test, and all three of them passed the first round of assessments.

The disciples burst into approving applause, and they admired the three senior brothers so much that they fell to the ground.

Rested for a stick of incense. The disciples who were chatting enthusiastically about the first round of assessment quickly lined up in an array, waiting for a more exciting second round of assessment.

The master of ceremonies did not have the slightest fatigue, and announced with full emotion: "The second round of Shennong's poison tasting assessment starts now!" This round of assessment is the ability to make drugs! The rules are as follows: 1. Each person is equipped with two herbs, and they can also use their own antidote. 2. After poisoning, the poisoned person can take the antidote immediately. 3. The time for the removal of poison toxicity is based on the person who first stabilizes the pulse. 4. The poison that has been removed for the longest time wins. Three senior brothers, please take out your poison! ”

Each of the three took out a small box from their arms, which they had specially prepared for this round of assessment.

The poisons made by the three of them were very small, similar to the upper pills, and the colors were elegant, mint green, lemon yellow, and peach pollen. Anyone who sees their adorable appearance will never imagine that there is a sinister evil hidden in the bread inside.

"Three senior brothers, if you need Baicao Dan, please go to the palace master to get it." The master of ceremonies said.

The three of them walked to Nong Qingyun's table at the same time, and each received two pills of Baicaodan.

So far, for the disciples of Shennong Palace, no one has been able to concoct a better antidote than Baicao Dan. Only Nong Qingyun's newly developed Shennongding has just been made into the antidote "Passing Eyes and Smoke", and its detoxification ability is dozens of times stronger than that of Baicaodan.

"Three senior brothers, who among you will poison first?" Bao Tiannu and Li Zigang looked at Yongmen Guang at the same time, and all the disciples also looked at Yongmen Guang.

It's a convention that always starts with the weakest disciple. From weak to strong, there is a progressive development in the whole process that will make it look better and better.

Yongmen Guang felt insulted, he didn't think he was the weakest of the three.

Although his performance in the first round of assessment was slightly inferior to the two senior brothers, he finally passed the assessment.

And in terms of drug production, he is quite sure that he will never lose to the two senior brothers.

The anger was just a flash, and Yongmen Guang's face was immediately filled with a humble smile: "Over the years, the poison made by the senior brother has been the strongest, senior brother let's start first, hehe, mine can't take it." ”

Bao Tiannu grinned, his huge front teeth glistening in the daylight. He frowned, and the contempt and arrogance were all written on his forehead: "Third junior brother, no matter how hard you can't take it out, you always have to take it out, do you want to withdraw from the assessment?" ”

Li Zigang was silent, he was not interested in this kind of verbal war and cynicism, he only cared about his kung fu and pharmacology, and kung fu always came first.

"No, no, no, senior brother, my first vote, I'm afraid I'll ruin everyone's interest. Only the poison made by the elder brother can make everyone enjoy it. ”

"Okay, when do you like to vote and when you want to vote!" Bao Tiannu pushed the small box forward, and Li Zigang and Yongmen Guang stepped forward to take a mint green pill and swallowed it.

In an instant, their faces turned pale, then blue, then black. Li Zigang's luck was against it, but his true qi was like an ant hitting a monstrous wave, and he was washed away. He fell to the ground with his legs limp.

Yongmen Guang is even worse. He had already clutched his stomach and rolled on the ground, moaning incessantly. This was already the fourth poison they had eaten, and the weakening of their physical strength caused them to retreat in the face of the poison.

The crowd kept making "wow" sounds, and even Nong Qingyun nodded with a smile.

Bao Tiannu had a straight face, a serious expression, and even showed a hint of pity. But he crossed his hands behind his back, and his two thumbs excitedly flicked each other, celebrating his master's success.

Li Zigang and Yongmen Guang hurriedly took out the Baicao Pill and stuffed it into their mouths. But their pain did not diminish by half a minute, and it was not until a quarter of an hour later that a trace of blood appeared on their faces.

To regain a steady breath as soon as possible, it was advantageous to lie down than to stand, so it took another quarter of an hour for them to get up from the ground.

After Nong Qingyun measured the pulse of the two of them, he set the time for Bao Tiannu's poison to clear out in two quarters of an hour.

"Second Senior Brother, come first!" Yongmen Guang insisted that he was poisoned in the end.

Li Zigang did not shirk. Two lemon yellow pills entered the mouths of Bao Tiannu and Yongmen Guang respectively.

Bao Tiannu, like Li Zigang, took the fourth poison. Although his skills are not as strong as Li Zigang's, Li Zigang's poison is not as strong as Bao Tiannu's poison. Therefore, Bao Tiannu and Li Zigang reacted similarly.

When he fell to the ground, Bao Tiannu took Baicao Dan.

Yongmen Guang is on the verge of death. It was the fifth poison he had taken. His skills are the weakest of the three. Li Zigang's poison had just entered his mouth when he fainted.

The master of ceremonies hurriedly broke off his tightly held right hand, took out the baicao pill, and stuffed it into his mouth.

Everyone sweated for him.

Bao Tiannu stood up in a quarter and a half of the hour. Yongmenguang didn't stand up until three quarters of an hour. Nong Qingyun set the time for Li Zigang's poison to be cleared up at a quarter and a half hours.

In the end, it was Yongmenguang's turn. Bao Tiannu and Li Zigang looked at him with pity. If Nong Qingyun was not present. Bao Tiannu will definitely say: "Third junior brother, is it necessary to compare?" ”

Yongmenguang's face was pale, his lips were chapped, and his young face showed signs of aging.
