Chapter 24: Danfang helps
Dao Xuan Zhenren didn't speak, he turned his head sideways to look at Xuanqing Dao Chief, and groaned slightly. "Senior Brother Xuanqing, how about Xiao Xi go to your Zizhu Peak?"
Daoist Xuanqing glanced at Bai Xiaoxi, very satisfied, and nodded with his beard. "I listened to the arrangement of the senior brother in charge. ”
Dao Xuan Zhenren nodded slightly, and his gaze moved to the thin Qingyang Dao Chief. "Senior Brother Qingyang, what Changqing learned before was medical skills, you have a Danfang Pharmacy in the Misty Peak, so let him go to you, how about it?"
"Hmm. Qing Yang Dao nodded his head, in fact, he was short of manpower.
After arranging a place for Xu Changqing and Bai Xiaoxi, Xu Changqing was still angry with Bai Xiaoxi for not fighting to stay in the valley, he didn't talk to Bai Xiaoxi who was walking beside him, and left with Qingyang Daochang.
Xu Changqing followed Qingyang Daoist to a courtyard halfway up the mountain behind the Ethereal Peak, at this time a slightly chubby old man walked out, Qingyang Daoist explained a few words to him and left, as for what Xu Changqing didn't hear.
After Qingyang Dao left, the slightly chubby old man looked at Xu Changqing, and his eyes showed a little surprise before quickly subsided. "My name is Liu Chuyi, I am the elder in charge of the Danfang Pharmacy Hall of Xuanfeng Gate, I will take you to the residence first, and then take you to the Danfang to help, there is a shortage of manpower. ”
"Oh. Xu Changqing nodded and followed Liu Chuyi into the courtyard.
In a room, Xu Changqing put down his luggage, Liu Chuyi brought some bedding and some daily necessities, Xu Changqing simply packed up and followed Liu Chuyi to another courtyard, Xu Changqing smelled a strong aroma before he got close, similar to the fragrance of medicine, Xu Changqing studied medicine, he could smell that the fragrance wafting from him was not a medicinal fragrance, but maybe it was the fragrance of the elixir.
Walk into the courtyard and come to a Dan room, the warm room is filled with a strong aroma of pills, there is a Dan furnace in the middle, the Dan furnace is in full swing, but it is not the color of an ordinary flame but a faint green light, there is a pile of firewood next to it, there are all kinds of bottles and cans on the cabinets around, there are three men who are busy and sweating.
A man who was not fat or thin and looked honest saw Liu Chuyi walking in with Xu Changqing, he wiped the sweat beads on his face, looked at Xu Changqing, and his eyes were a little puzzled. "Elder Liu, who is this?"
While the two were talking, the other two men, one fat and one thin, dropped the work in their hands and walked over, wiping their sweat while looking at Xu Changqing.
"His name is Xu Changqing, he will stay in the Danfang to help for the time being, I still have to go to the medicine hall to have a look, you guys continue to be busy! Liu Chu finished his words and left.
Seeing that Liu Chuyi was leaving, the three men were not in a hurry to work and introduced themselves to Xu Changqing one after another, and the honest man who had just spoken to Liu Chuyi was the first to introduce himself. "My name is Li Shiming, and the big and small affairs in this Danfang are arranged by me, and you will ...... in the future."
"There are only a few of us in Danfang, what are you talking about, you really think of yourself as a person. Before Li Shiming finished speaking, the lean-looking man standing next to him interrupted his words, with a hint of complaint, and then looked at Xu Changqing with a smile on his face. "My name is Zhang Wenjie, Gong Chang Zhang, the text of the article, the spirit of the outstanding people, no, no, no, it is the spirit of the outstanding people, if you don't understand anything in the future, you can ask me, I am a know-it-all!"
"You've got it, gossip, don't fool people here. As soon as Zhang Wenjie's words fell, the man next to him with a body of horizontal flesh glanced at him and smirked at Xu Changqing. "My name is Zhao Erhu, known as Zhao Jingang, whoever bullies you in the future, you will tell me, and I will help you cripple him. ”
"You don't brag here, you talk about it, who else can you beat other than us, the outer disciples who are low-spirited?" Zhang Wenjie glanced at the fat man Zhao Erhu and raised the bar with him.
Zhao Erhu had a straight face but no longer refutated, at this time, Xu Changqing, who had not said a word since entering the door, looked at Zhang Wenjie and Zhao Erhu and stopped talking, he looked at the two of them, his eyes were a little dazed. "What should I do?"
"I'll take you to get acquainted with it first!" Although there are only three people in the Danfang at present, Li Shiming is the head of the three, responsible for assigning daily tasks, but he also has to work.
"I'll introduce Changqing, you go and add to the fire!" Zhao Erhu was lazy and sent Li Shiming away.
Li Shiming saw that the firewood in the Dan furnace was about to go out, so he hurriedly ran to add firewood. Zhao Erhu led Xu Changqing to familiarize himself with the environment, and Xu Changqing stopped beside a pile of firewood with a faint glow, his eyes full of suspicion. "Brother Erhu, how can this firewood still shine?"
Zhao Erhu looked at Xu Changqing, his eyes were a little surprised. "This is Lingmu, what, don't you know?"
"I haven't seen it. Xu Changqing shook his head.
While speaking, Xu Changqing came to the cabinet with bottles and cans, and just as Zhao Erhu wanted to say something, he opened his mouth first. "Is there all the elixir in here?"
"This is the Gathering Spirit Pill, this is the ......" Zhao Erhu put down his doubts and pointed to the bottles and cans in front of him to introduce, and then said after introducing the elixir. "Actually, you don't need to understand this, our daily task is to cut down the spirit tree, chop wood, light the fire, and find Dancai. ”
"Eh, who will prepare the pill?" Xu Changqing was puzzled, since it was a pill, someone should always prepare the pill.
"We don't have to worry about this, Elder Liu will send it with a good Dan Fang. Zhang Wenjie walked over and handed Xu Changqing an axe as he spoke. "Changqing, follow me to the mountain to cut down the spirit tree. ”
"Oh. Xu Changqing took the axe and followed Zhang Wenjie away.
The two came to a dense forest on the mountain, the tall trees were glowing with a ghostly light, the same as the light emitted by the firewood that Xu Changqing saw in the Dan room, it was the spirit tree, Zhang Wenjie picked up the axe and cut down the tree.
Xu Changqing saw that Zhang Wenjie didn't use much force, and he had cut a deep mark on the trunk of the tree after a few axes, and he often climbed the mountain to collect medicine in the secluded valley, and his physical work was not difficult for him, so he lifted the axe and cut it down at a tree in front of him.
As soon as the axe in Xu Changqing's hand touched the trunk of the tree, he was hit by a force, and the axe in his hand suddenly flew out with a shock, and his palm was numb with pain, but there was no axe mark when he looked at the spirit tree.
Xu Changqing, who bared his teeth, kept shaking his painful hand, and Zhang Wenjie smiled when he saw this. "Changqing, why don't you use spiritual power, you need spiritual power to cut down the spirit tree. ”
The spirit tree absorbs the spiritual energy to grow, but when the firewood is burned for alchemy, only those who have cultivated spiritual power can cut it down, Xu Changqing has not cultivated, and he can't cut down the spiritual tree without spiritual power.
"Oh, that's only hard for you, I don't have spiritual power. The pain in Xu Changqing's palm gradually subsided, and he sat down while speaking.
