Chapter 70: The Main Hall
Everyone was stunned for a moment when they heard this, and then looked at one person in unison, that's right, this Xu Mu is among the people who came today, and he is the disciple who was scared and screamed by Feng Heng's transplantation that day.
Feng Heng was trying to find a way to ripen the eight herbs after that day, while secretly investigating the murderer, he had suspected that it was Zhou Lin, the previous manager, but then he found that something seemed wrong.
On the second day after the incident, Feng Heng went to see this so-called Zhou Lin, and saw that he was a very honest and honest disciple, when he heard that the Yang Spirit Grass Garden was now being taken care of by himself, he was slightly surprised and taught Feng Heng a lesson, and then talked a lot about how to take care of the Yang Spirit Grass, and even said that if Feng Heng couldn't take care of it, he would come to him for trouble.
Feng Heng was a little surprised when he heard this, if Lin pretended to be confused this week, then his acting skills would be too good, but then an investigation found that he didn't seem to be acting, it turned out that this Zhou Lin was originally an orphan, and he was inadvertently picked up by an elder in Dantang, who grew up in Dantang since he was a child, and began to learn how to manage medicinal herbs at a young age.
As he grew older, his planting skills naturally became more and more proficient, and he rose from managing first-grade medicinal materials to fourth-grade medicinal materials, but he had no talent in alchemy, and he himself preferred to be accompanied by medicinal herbs in the garden, so he stayed in the garden to manage medicinal materials.
As for the Yang Spirit Grass Garden, it was not he who was originally in charge, but because the disciples who had managed it before were expelled from the sect halfway through the devouring of medicinal materials, the Dantang was temporarily handed over to him to take care of due to the shortage of manpower, but this Zhou Lin had never managed this kind of medicinal materials before, and what he learned in a hurry was limited after all, so he could only water and fertilize the herbs carefully according to the method on the task scroll, which made the Yang Spirit Grass a little sluggish.
Such a person, Feng Heng, naturally didn't believe that he would do such a thing, and the reason why he finally affirmed that this matter was done by Na Xu Mu was due to two reasons, first, that Xu Mu had always been unwilling here, he had applied for the management of that Yang Spirit Grass Garden several times, but they were all rejected, because the elders felt that his current level could only manage second-grade medicinal materials.
The second is because of the two looks, the first is that Feng Heng found out that Elder Wu and they were leaving ten days ago, and he was glared at by someone resentfully, and it was this Xu Mu who stared at him. The second look was the gloating and murderous look in Xu Mu's eyes when the disciples found that there were eight herbs missing, as I said before, Feng Heng was very sensitive to murderous energy, so he could clearly feel that Xu Mu's unkindness.
Originally, Feng Heng didn't want to say it, and even felt that if the murderer was Zhou Lin, he would swallow his anger, after all, he did insult him in disguise that day, and it was understandable for him to take revenge, but this Xu Mu was different, the reason why he targeted himself was just because of jealousy.
As soon as he got started, he was arranged to manage the Sanpin Medicine Garden, he was jealous of his good luck, that day he rushed to complain to Elder Wu, but Elder Wu did not punish himself as he imagined, he was jealous of the Elder's tolerance of himself, seeing that Yang Lingcao was getting better day by day under his management, he was jealous of his talent.
Just because others are luckier than themselves and more capable than themselves, they want to put others to death, and there is really no reason for such a person to be soft on him.
Let's say that Feng Heng followed the five elders with gloomy faces and didn't say a word all the way to the top of the mountain, feeling a little uneasy in his heart, not understanding what these five elders meant, why he was so excited when he heard that he would be able to ripen the technique.
In fact, Feng Heng's so-called ripening is nothing more than wrapping it with strong wood-based elements before it dies to speed up its growth rate, which looks like ripening on the surface, but in fact it is simply forcibly infused with the power of the elements.
Of course, the effect of this is not much different from the legendary ripening secret technique, at least there will be no damage to the medicinal materials, if there is damage, it is the magic power in his body.
The two of them went all the way forward, directly crossing a few rows of Dan rooms, but the five elders did not mean to stop, Feng Heng became more and more suspicious, since he entered this Dan Hall, he knew that the back was a forbidden area for disciples, although he was a little curious, he did not dare to trespass.
He had heard Zhao Yu say before that there were three rows of Dan rooms here, and the first row was where the disciples made alchemy, of course, under normal circumstances, they did not refine the whole Dan, but refined the medicinal materials and supplied them to the second row of the Dan room, even if they refined the whole Dan, most of them were refining the most basic first and second grade pills under the guidance of the elders.
And the second row is a place for the elders in charge like Elder Wu to refine the pills, and almost all the supply pills for the disciples in the sect come from there, but their ranks are also limited, so the pills produced in this second row generally do not exceed three grades.
As for the third row of Dan rooms, it was the special alchemy room for several elders with relatively high ranks in the Dan Hall, which was a top secret here, but it was not fired every day, and there were not so many high-level medicinal materials in the hall for them to use, so it was only occasionally refined, and it was supplied to the elders of other halls or the main person to break through the realm or something.
And this third row of Dan room is said to have produced five pins of pills, although it is only one or two, but it is enough to show that there are powerful alchemy masters in the hall, although the five pins of pills are only the middle level, but its degree of difficulty is already unimaginable to ordinary people, in addition to rich experience, it also needs full luck.
So in general, the three rows of Dan rooms here can be classified in this way, the first row is the second grade Dan room, the second row is the third row of the Dan room, and the third row is the five Dan room.
Feng Heng walked around and observed, and found that the second row of Dan rooms and the first row did not look much different from the appearance, but the fire element in the air here was much denser than before, while the third row was completely different, only to see that there was a high wall outside each Dan room, and the two rooms were not next to each other, but separated by about ten meters, and it seemed that they were independent small courtyards.
"Looks like you're here for the first time?" Although the fifth elder didn't look back, he seemed to know Feng Heng's actions well.
Feng Heng hurriedly retracted his gaze, "The disciple has just started for ten days, and it is indeed the first time he has come. ”
The five elders snorted, "I'm going to take you to the main hall of the Dan Hall now, and when I see the hall master and the elders later, don't be so frivolous." ”
Feng Heng frowned slightly and replied, hesitated for a while and asked, "The disciple is a little puzzled, why did the elder bring me here?"
The Fifth Elder didn't stop walking and said with a smile: "You'll know this later, but I can tell you first, you may be the one we are looking for." ”
"I see. Feng Heng replied, not knowing what to say.
The two of them continued to move forward, and Feng Heng saw that there was a straight path in front of him, leading directly to a forest not far away, and because the forest was very dense, he couldn't see what was inside.
"The front is the back valley where the main hall is located, and you are lucky to say it, ordinary disciples may not have the opportunity to come here if they stay for seven or eight years. The Fifth Elder said.
Feng Heng smiled and nodded.
Crossing the woods, Feng Heng couldn't help but light up, only to see that the woods are not thick, as if only planted to cover something, it looks like a wall, but there is a hole in it, the eye is a white stone building, although it is not very luxurious, but there are flowers and water around, the air lingers with a strong aura of grass and trees, in addition to the not far away, you can also see a lot of eaves pavilion pillars looming in the shadow of the trees, obviously there are many people living here.
Feng Heng was a little stunned, since he entered this Dan Hall, the total number of people he has seen is no more than thirty, and the highest position is Elder Wu, and he has always wondered in his heart if a Dan Hall of the Great Gate Sect is just like this, and now when he sees this, the people with real feelings are hiding here.
Also, with such a strong aura here, presumably cultivation can also get twice the result with half the effort, and these people naturally don't want to go outside.
"Come in with me. Seeing Feng Heng start to look around again, the five elders shook their heads and said.
"Oh. Feng Heng hurriedly came back to his senses, took a closer look, and saw that there was a stone staircase corridor in front of the building, with the word 'Dantang' written on it, and he didn't dare to be distracted for a while, so he hurriedly followed.
After crossing the corridor is the main hall, I saw two disciples standing at the door, and when they saw them coming, they all respectfully called out to the fifth elder.
The five elders casually replied and ordered, "Go and invite the hall master, deputy hall master, and the elders, and say that there is something important to discuss." ”
The two disciples answered the call and went separately, as if they hadn't seen Feng Heng at all.
Feng Heng followed him into the hall, and saw that there was a portrait of Danzu and a couplet hanging on the front wall of the hall, and below it was an extremely elegant tea table, with two main seats next to it, and two rows of seats on the left and right sides.
The fifth elder walked to a chair and sat down, and frowned without saying a word and remembered what happened, which made Feng Heng a little at a loss for a while, so he could only stand at the bottom of the hall in a daze.
After a while, the Fifth Elder suddenly said with a solemn face, "Let me ask you again, do you really know how to ripen you?"
Feng Heng had already recovered his composure at the moment, and said: "Those eight Yang Spirit Grasses are indeed ripened by disciples, but the disciple's ability is limited, if the elder asks the disciple to help mature any medicinal materials, then you have to look at the specific situation of the medicinal materials before you dare to make a conclusion." ”
Feng Heng naturally guessed in his heart, these five elders must have some medicinal materials that need to be matured before they call themselves in such a hurry, but even the medicinal materials they attach so much importance to, I am afraid that they are not ordinary things, if they are too full of words now, it will not be fun to do it when the time comes.
The Fifth Elder nodded, "If the hall master asks later, you can answer like this." ”
After the two of them were in the hall for a while, they saw many people arriving one after another, and after entering the door, they all looked at Feng Heng in confusion before greeting the five elders, but they didn't ask why Feng Heng was here and why the five elders called them here, and after saying hello, they each sat quietly on the side.
