Chapter 223: Temporary Commitment

Speaking of this, Li Xian deliberately paused for a moment, and seeing Chen Changan's expressionless face, he couldn't help but secretly wonder, what is the origin of this young man? said that he had never cultivated, and led him to such a long way, and he saw sweat on his nose, but he didn't change at all, he didn't say sweat, and he didn't even blush.

Chen Changan seemed to be listening to him, but in fact, he was secretly shocked, such a hot day, basking under the sun, as usual, became a water rabbit in the morning. But now, only the left palm is slightly warm, as if all the heat that the sun is shining on the body has been transferred to the palm of the hand.

Chen Changan opened his left hand, and the corner of his eye looked at his palm from time to time, but why did he still get hot?

Seeing that Chen Changan was absent-minded, Li Xian also lost his enthusiasm for continuing to introduce, and for the sake of Lu Tou'er's face, he personally brought him here. So he pointed to a small three-story building, "That's the entrance test center of the academy, and after passing the test, you will be an official student of Yanchi Academy." I wish you success!"

Li Xian nodded reservedly, said goodbye, and turned back to the way he came.

Chen Changan thanked him, and walked to the small building with Li Xian's guidance.

Entering the small building, an old man in his seventies was dozing off on a recliner made of willow and rattan.

Chen Changan coughed lightly, "Hello! My name is Chen Changan, and I am here to take the entrance test." ”

The old man opened one eye, rolled down his dim eyeballs, and motioned to a row of open cabinets at the root of the north wall, "There are a hundred kinds of medicinal herbs there, give you ten minutes to write down the names and their corresponding medicinal herbs." ”

After saying that, he closed his eyes again and even snored.

The curtains in the small building were tightly closed, the light was dim, Chen Changan wiped his eyes with his left hand, the sparks flashed in his eyes, and his eyes suddenly became much brighter, so he walked to the row of cabinets.

The cabinet has five layers of small drawers, all of which are open like five steps from bottom to top.

On the first open drawer, it was written Xuannu Dihuang Ding, and Chen Changan glanced at the herbs inside, with purple-red stems, jagged leaves, and purple fluffy flowers.

Chen Changan remembered its name and main features at a glance.

Then I looked at the second drawer, Xuannu Tianhuangding, the appearance was very imaginary from the first one, but there were some small thorns on the leaves that were difficult to distinguish with the naked eye.

The third drawer, the Nine Xuandi Huang Ding, compared to the second type of Xuannu Tianhuang Ding, the leaves of this herb are all nine pieces, and each piece is the same size.

The fourth drawer, Jiuxuantian Huangding, is almost identical to the third, except that the seeds under the fluffy florets appear fuller, and are no longer round, but oval.

Although the old man was snoring, he actually half-squinted, staring at Chen Changan's every move, and when he saw that he almost glanced at it, he walked past a drawer, and couldn't help but cheer up.

In less than a minute, Chen Changan walked through a row, and the name, characteristics, and appearance of each herb seemed to be engraved in his mind.

Chen Changan walked back, and another twenty kinds of medicinal herbs were memorized in his mind.

Chen Changan looked at the wall clock on the wall, which took a total of one minute and twenty-six seconds. He himself was secretly surprised, it didn't make sense, these herbs were definitely the first time he had seen them, how could he remember them all after walking once?

Starting from the first one, Chen Changan thought about the names of each herb one by one, and then checked with the words on the drawer, a good one.

Chen Changan couldn't understand why, but as long as it was good.

I walked two and a half back and forth, and it took three minutes to share.

Chen Changan walked back to the old man.

Seeing that Chen Changan had finished reading the first row of herbs in less than a minute, the old man's eyes unconsciously widened. After looking at the second row, the old man closed one eye. By the third row, the old man's eyes were all closed, and his head was twisted to the side.

By the fourth row, the old man was starting to gasp.

After reading the fifth row, the old man scolded in his heart, which bastard is this, he found a bastard to entertain Lao Tzu on a hot day. He decided that Chen Chang'an's carelessness was just pretending!

Chen Changan stood for a while, and saw that the old man was just closing his eyes, so he had to remind: "Old man, I'm done." ”

The old man snorted coldly, didn't open his eyes, stretched out his big hand, grabbed the row of cabinets, dozens of medicinal materials mixed together, and flew into a basket on the table in front of Chen Changan.

A row of cabinets on the wall said, "Minutes!"

Chen Changan's eyes widened, what kind of trick is this? As soon as he stretched out his hand, the medicinal herbs automatically flew over!

Chen Changan looked at the south wall and saw that there was also a row of cabinets there, and the names of various medicinal herbs were also written on the small drawers of the cabinets. It seems that the old man meant to let himself sort these messy herbs into the correct drawer within five minutes.

At that moment, the basket was lifted, the medicine was dropped, and in two and a half minutes, thirty-six kinds of medicinal materials were put in.

Chen Changan returned to the old man with the basket.

This time, the old man finally opened his eyes, "What did you say your name was?"

"Chen Chang'an. ”

"Xiliang Chen family?"

The old man's eyes widened, and Chen Changan's legs trembled, but he quickly stabilized, "I am from Kuanglu Haiyou, also known as Lushan." ”

The old man straightened his waist, bounced up from the recliner, turned around on the south wall, retreated to Chen Changan's side, and stared at his eyes, which looked like they were about to eat people, "Boy, say, who sent you?"

Chen Changan was angry in his heart, was this an interrogation? He also glared at the old man.

The two were in a stalemate for a while, but the old man spoke first, "Boy, it's enough to plant! It's a pity that those who have seeds don't live long." ”

There was a threat in his words, but his tone was much softened.

Chen Changan was stared at by him, and after the old man spoke, the pressure on his body suddenly decreased, and he said unconvincedly: "But I have always lived well." ”

The old man was so angry that his beard straightened, and he took out a tattered dictionary-like thick book from his arms and threw it to Chen Changan, "Recite the general outline in ten minutes." ”

Chen Changan took it and took a look, "Xihuang Pharmacopoeia", turned the first page, and the vertical column of small characters was full.

"Qi conduction and health, Li Yuan Renshou. Yin and Yang Technique, Tiqi Heaven and Earth. ......”

Chen Changan quickly finished the first page and memorized it in his head, then the second page, and then the third page......

The old man looked at Chen Changan coldly, and when he saw him flipping through a book like counting money, he didn't stop him, and looked at him pretending.

Unconsciously, ten minutes passed, and a pharmacopoeia had been read by Chen Changan for nearly one-third.

"Back!"

"Qi conduction and health, Li Yuan Renshou. Yin and Yang Technique, Tiqi Heaven and Earth. ......”

A general outline was quickly memorized, there was not a single typo, Chen Changan saw that the old man did not stop him, so he had to continue to memorize it, the first article was memorized, the second article, the third part was ......

The old man's brows furrowed into the word "Sichuan", this pharmacopoeia is a secret that is not passed down in the collection of Yanchi Academy, and it has always been in his own hands, this kid is from a family of medicine gods, and it is impossible to memorize this pharmacopoeia. The reason why I took it out for the first time was to test him. The classification of medicinal materials just now, the speed is so fast, is it the accumulation of previous knowledge, or is it really unforgettable.

Until Chen Changan had memorized all the chapters within ten minutes, the old man was still squinting, but his lips kept trembling.

Chen Changan was even more surprised, when will he be able to remember it?

After a long time, the old man woke up, ran over and grabbed Chen Changan's hand, "Young man, why did you come to my Yanchi Academy?"

Chen Changan struggled a few times, but he couldn't break free of his hand, and he couldn't see that such a thin person had such a strong hand, and he couldn't break it off as a young man.

Chen Changan had to let him hold it, "It was an uncle surnamed Lu who opened the red three wheels and pulled me here." ”

The old man's eyes flashed, and he hurriedly said: "Uncle surnamed Lu? This old immortal! You haven't watched his "Rulai Divine Palm", have you?"

The old man said, his index finger on Chen Changan's vein. After a while, the old man let out a sigh, "Fortunately, fortunately, this old immortal has suffered a big loss! haha!"

Chen Changan was shocked to the point that his eardrums hurt, and said, "I've read a page!"

"What? this old immortal!" The old man's fingers touched Chen Changan's veins again, touched them for a long time, and shook his head helplessly.

Chen Changan was held by his arm, unhappy, and retorted: "The uncle surnamed Lu is very good, and he confiscated my fare." ”

"What a fart!" The old man finally let go of his hand and scolded hatefully, "This old immortal is still your uncle! It's enough to be your grandfather's grandfather!"

"How do you curse?"

"Scolding? The old man can't wait to flatten him. This old immortal will be the most troublesome!"

Chen Changan knew that he had misunderstood, but he didn't even know who his grandfather was, so how could he allow him to insult, and said angrily: "I think you are old and immortal! How do you know that my grandfather is not as old as him." ”

The old man was scolded to his face for being immortal, and Chen Changan was still the tail of a scorpion--the only one, and the old man was about to have a seizure immediately, and then he thought about it, his grandfather was older than Lu Yang, the old immortal, so what kind of cultivation did his grandfather have! This Chen Changan really came from everyone? He blurted out: "Who is your grandfather?"

Chen Changan's eyes darkened, I just want to know who my grandfather is. But the young man's self-esteem made him not want to tell the truth, so he said: "I can't say!"

The old man saw that his eyes were wrong when he mentioned his grandfather, and he couldn't tell his grandfather's name, so he thought that he had a conflict with his family, and he was no longer recognized as the Chen family. I am happy in my heart, and I have found a treasure! This kind of child of a big family can be related, and maybe it will be a great aid from my Bai family in the future.

At the moment, he said with a pleasant face: "Chen Chang'an, the old man Bai Shulun, is now the dean of the Pharmacy Branch of Yanchi Academy, are you willing to be my personal disciple?"

Isn't the director of the pharmacy called Bai Shulun, how did he become Bai Shulun here?

Chen Changan thought about it, he was just sheltering temporarily, so he shook his head, "I'm sorry, I don't want to." ”

Seeing the old man's disappointed face, Chen Changan couldn't bear it, and said, "However, it's okay to study with you for a few days." ”

As soon as Bai Shulun heard that there was still room for things to turn around, hmph, as long as you enter my pharmacy department, with the old man's water grinding skills, I don't believe that I can't accept you as an apprentice! If you want to see some unique subsets of scriptures and histories, with the old man's means, he can always get them for you. ”

"Yes!" Chen Changan agreed without hesitation, he was just looking for a temporary place to commit, as long as he could settle down, there was little difference in which department he entered.

"However, this place is the Xuanyang Continent?" Chen Changan thought and thought, and finally said the question that had been held in his heart for a long time.

"Xuanyang Continent? Bai Shulun frowned, "You're talking about the Xuanyue Continent, right? This is the Tianluo Continent, but there are people from the Xuanyue Continent from time to time." ”

Tianluo Continent? Chen Changan was stunned, looking at this momentum, it should be Xuanyang Continent with a clear style, how did it become Tianluo Continent?

"Since you don't want to be my mantle disciple, then you can only start as an ordinary student, and the treatment is very different from my descendant. So I'd suggest you'd better think about it. Bai Shulun gave Chen Changan a serious eye medicine.

"It's okay! It's good to start as an ordinary student! By the way, Bai Lao, have you heard of Langya Academy?" Chen Chang'an said.

"What are you doing? It's all snobbish, and the treatment is not as good as ours. Bai Shulun said nervously.

"It's nothing! It's just a classmate of mine who joined Langya Academy, and if our conditions are good, I want to pull her to our side. Chen Changan's words are really not nonsense, when he was in Xuanyang Continent, his female table took the spring college entrance examination and was admitted to Langya Academy in advance. When she visited the school in advance, she brought Chen Changan a photo of the scenery of Zhang Yanchi.

"That's what a mistake your classmate has! Call your friend and come to us as soon as possible." There, the children of the common people simply can't get along. Bai Shulun regretted a little as soon as he spoke, this Chen Chang'an's life experience is probably not simple, and his friends must not be ordinary families, but the meaning of his words is clearly that the children of the family have preferential treatment.

Is there really a Langya Academy here? Chen Changan was stunned again, this Tianluo Continent and Xuanyang Continent are similar and different. Fortunately, he was a person from the Xuanyang Continent, otherwise he would be able to bluff the people of the Xuanyue Continent with just one phone call.

He hurriedly switched back to the thinking of the Xuanyang Continent and said, "I don't have a friend's phone, and I don't have a mobile phone. I'm afraid I won't be able to get in touch for a while, but if I can meet her, maybe I can convince her to come to our academy in person. ”

"You don't have a mobile phone? That's easy to say! Go back, I'll ask the General Affairs Department to get you one. Actually, if you become my personal disciple, not only will you have your own independent courtyard, but there will also be two internal staff in charge of your life. Don't even fight for house points. Bai Shulun continued to tempt him.

"What are you using for academy points?" Chen Chang'an said.

"Hey, it seems that the old immortal didn't make it clear to you. In our college, tuition is free, and it is good to take care of food and housing. But ordinary disciples live in an eight-person room, have no pocket money, no cultivation resources, and have to pay obligations to the academy. If you become my personal disciple, not only do you not have to pay the obligation, but you will also have 100 points per month, and according to your cultivation progress, you will be issued some auxiliary cultivation materials such as pills in a timely manner. ”
