Chapter 23: Transmission of the Scriptures
Xie Qingning didn't plan to go to the academy to study today, because she felt that she probably couldn't learn useful knowledge in the Xie Academy, and it was better to cultivate at home, because she still had a lot of cultivation knowledge stored in her mind, and it was a very long process and experience to start from scratch and learn from the past, and she had to race against time.
After a while, the black cat finally woke up, stretched its waist, and slowly jumped out of bed to pace in the courtyard, active and active, but it just walked to the door and happened to meet Xie Qingning, who was sweating profusely, back to the house, she wore a tight-fitting dress, although the body was a little thin, showing that it had not yet begun to develop, but there was a white towel hanging around her neck, and her long hair was tied behind her head with a light veil.
"You...... Didn't you go to school? The black cat looked up at her and asked, dumbfounded.
"I'm not going today," Xie Qingning reached out and wiped the sweat off his face with the towel on his shoulder, and said as he walked towards the bathroom, "I have already obtained the recipe for the antidote, but it will take two more days to collect the herbs." ”
The black cat was stunned for a moment, turned around in surprise and watched her small figure walk behind the screen, and only asked after a while, "How did you find the antidote formula?" ”
Xie Qingning, who was changing clothes, poked out his little head and smiled slyly at him, "It's a secret." ”
"Secret?" The black cat raised his eyebrows, although this action was not visible to outsiders at all, "Okay, if you don't tell you honestly, I don't have to be insignificant about you." ”
Xie Qingning was a little strange when he heard this, and he was slow for a moment before he replied helplessly, "It's a spirit search technique." ”
"You know how to search for souls?" The black cat's eyes widened, and he asked with surprise in his eyes, "Who taught you?" ”
"My master Feng Gucheng, well, in two years, he will pass through Lanling City to form a master-apprentice relationship with me, and you will meet him at that time." Xie Qingning retracted her head as she said and continued to change her clothes, and when she finished cleaning up and walked out, she found that the black cat was still standing in place, with a thoughtful expression, and the cat's eyes turned around, and she didn't know what she was pondering.
Xie Qingning turned his head to look out the window, Bang Zheng had just been sent by her to the middle courtyard to ask for something from the chief steward Xie, and Yanyu went to the pharmacy in the city to buy the medicinal materials needed for her to prepare the antidote according to her instructions, and the bamboo courtyard was deep and quiet.
She smiled with satisfaction, and then sat down in front of the dresser and asked while pulling her hair, "Your Excellency has been with me for more than three months, but you have never told your real name, I can't always feed and call you, how can you also call me a name?" ”
Hearing this, the black cat snorted lightly, jumped lightly onto the table in the room and said, "My surname is Fan, and I am the third in the family, you can call me Mo San." ”
"Mo San?" Xie Qingning's combing movement paused slightly, looked at him through the mirror of the bronze mirror and guessed, "Your name is Fan...... Ink? ”
The black cat was noncommittal, but out of nowhere he got something and threw it at her, "This is the medicine scripture that has been passed down from generation to generation of our Fan, you must first memorize me before we can lead you into the gate of the Dan Dao, if your understanding is too poor, I don't dare to shame my ancestors." ”
Xie Qingning instinctively took the thing, and saw that it was a black bead, she blinked, put down the wooden comb in her hand to look at the bead, but she couldn't see what was inside, and after thinking for a while, she slowly injected spiritual power into it, and the golden light flashed in front of her, only to see many golden runes like musical notes automatically jumping towards her spiritual platform, she was stunned before she quickly closed her eyes and put all the runes into the spiritual platform Zhihai.
Half an hour later, the runes were absorbed by her, and the content was too much and too miscellaneous, she had no way to see them all, so she could only ask with a little regret, "So much content, I'm afraid I won't be able to write them all down without two or three months of effort, right?" ”
"Three months?" The black cat, who was about to get some sleep, immediately blew up, "Are you mistaken?" When I was three years old, my grandfather ordered me to memorize all the contents of the "Brahman Medicine Sutra", and the time limit was only fifteen days, even if you are stupid, it will not take three months, right? ”
Xie Qingning was embarrassed, and said with a dry smile, "Then it's a month, I'll finish it all in a month." ”
"That's pretty much it," the black cat snorted, "by the way, you hurry up and prepare something for me, Young Master Ben is hungry." ”
Knowing that this guy has a bad temper and has a lot of requirements, although Xie Qingning disdains flattery, but thinking that he has just taught himself that the "Sanskrit Medicine Sutra" does record a lot of medicinal herb knowledge, which is more comprehensive and richer than all the medical books she came into contact with in the "Hidden Valley", the excitement and excitement in her heart could not be concealed, and she automatically ignored the dissatisfaction with the black cat, no, Fanmo, got up and returned the beads to him, and said with a smile, "Yes, I'll go and give you a bowl of noodles, okay?" ”
"Okay, put more oil, I've been starving me to thin wood after following you for the past few months." The black cat grabbed the bead back and snorted dissatisfiedly.
Xie Qingning looked at his "thin body", which was already fat and could barely find his neck, and turned around and went out with the slander in his heart.
Because Xie Shi Ming rightfully regarded himself as a disciple of the Xie family, according to the practice of the Fuzhong, Xie Qingning's bamboo courtyard could not only receive 25 taels of silver per month, but also receive a certain amount of firewood, rice, oil, salt, flour, meat, vegetables, eggs, fruits, as well as daily necessities such as soap, bean pods, rouge gouache, spiritual grass, and elixir.
While Xie Qingning was lighting a fire, mixing noodles, and cooking noodles in the kitchen, he began to read the knowledge stored in the spiritual platform.

The medicine scripture also records the shape, color, growth characteristics, medicinal properties and other knowledge of each herb in great detail, and there are pictures to help you not to mistake the herb, and also lists many very similar herbs separately, recording their differences and commonalities, the content is rich, detailed, and comprehensive, not to mention, the breadth of knowledge is jaw-dropping, as if opening another world, which really makes Xie Qingning extremely excited.
Suddenly, she was awakened by a burnt smell, and looked down to see that the noodles in the pot had already turned into a black paste because the water had been boiled dry, so frightened that she gasped and hurriedly shoveled them out, and then poured clean water to wash the pot, looked at the kitchen filled with green smoke and smoked the corners of her mouth, and had to interrupt learning to remix the noodles and prepare the ingredients.
