Chapter 20 Pharmacists

Coming out of the pharmacy, Hua Rong's little girl really taught Li Ding a lesson, don't look at her young age, but she talks about the rules and cultivation of the door.

From Hua Rong's mouth, Li Ding knew that Jinguangmen would hold a door celebration every five years, and many people would send their children to Jinguangmen in order to start cultivating. However, after entering the school, he is just a registered disciple like himself, and only after entering the Tongyuan Realm can he have the opportunity to become a formal disciple, if he can't, he can only leave on his own.

But after becoming an official disciple, he only practiced on his own under the guidance of the teacher arranged by Jinguangmen, and if there was no great progress in his practice, he would still be removed from his name and leave, and only those powerful teenagers and girls would be left behind to formally learn the arts. Only at this time can he be regarded as a true disciple of the Golden Light Sect.

After Hua Rong's detailed explanation, it was only now that Li Ding understood that Jinguangmen was an academy-style sect. Although Li Ding didn't immediately understand the meaning of the word academy, he learned from Hua Rong's words that before he became an official disciple of Jinguangmen, he actually didn't have much to do with Jinguangmen.

It seems that the special care of Ye Lianhai in the sea was not casually said, with his current situation, he was able to stay in the medicine hall as a registered disciple, and it may be because of the recommendation of the elder Yu of the Qing clan.

Li Ding is now registered in the medicine hall, according to Hua Yang's meaning, his two apprentices have become Li Ding's teachers, but if Li Ding does nothing in cultivation, he will naturally be forced to leave Jinguangmen, so Hua Rong said that he wants him to condense the first trace of vitality within two months.

Li Ding's day was extremely fulfilling, Hua Rong not only told him some spiritual experience, but also told him a lot about going up the mountain to collect medicine, but it also made Li Ding's mood heavy again.

Before I knew it, half a day was over, although Hua Rong's master was not on the mountain, but this little girl's daily homework was never delayed, and she explained something to Li Ding, Hua Rong felt very self-conscious that she was going to practice. After sending Hua Rong away, Li Ding returned to the room next to the pharmacy.

Sitting on the bed, he took out the book of exercises with the surname of Mu from his arms, and Li Ding saw the name of the exercises for the first time - Mu Qi Jue.

Some couldn't wait to open the booklet, and Li Ding's eyes were full of joy. I saw that the booklet was written with some methods of Xingyuan, explaining how to run the vitality within specific meridians, in order to open up these meridians, and finally form a specific circulation path in the body.

However, if you want to do this, you must first use the method of Xingyuan to feel the aura of heaven and earth around you, and then introduce the spirit of the yuan into the dantian through some acupuncture points to turn it into vitality, and only when the vitality reaches a certain level, can you start to open up the meridians, otherwise everything will be in vain if the vitality is insufficient.

The booklet was only a few thin pages, and it didn't take long for Li Ding to read them all, but he didn't know how to feel the aura of the surrounding heaven and earth at the end.

Hua Rong had said to Li Ding before that the first step in practicing the exercises is to first find out the trace of activated vitality in one's body, and then use the power of the mind to guide that trace of vitality to move along the path of the exercise.

The method of gathering spiritual cultivation is to activate the vitality through the trace in the body, form this wonderful resonance with the external spirit of the elemental spirit, and then introduce the corresponding elemental spirit meridian acupuncture points into the body to transform into vitality. This process sounds extremely simple, but it is even more difficult to do, because Li Ding at this time doesn't even know where the trace of activation vitality in his body is.

According to what Hua Rong said, Li Ding sat cross-legged on the bed, his mind was introverted, and he slowly felt every part of his body. However, after sitting like this for almost half an hour, Li Ding did not feel any abnormalities in his body.

"Hua Rong's girl clearly said that the trace of vitality will continue to beat in her body, is it because the grade of vitality is too low and it is not easy to feel?" Li Ding opened his eyes, sat on the bed and muttered to himself in confusion.

No progress in cultivation means that he may leave Jinguangmen at any time in the future, this depressed feeling makes Li Ding's heart heavy, but the kind of heart hidden in his heart and never admits defeat makes him grit his teeth.

However, after thinking about it for a while, he didn't come up with any eyebrows, so Li Ding had to put away the exercises and leave the room, because this time of day was almost the time when Chen Yu sent the meal.

As soon as he left the room, Li Ding saw a few people dressed as disciples in the door, walking towards the pharmacy from the path on the mountain. There was talk and laughter along the way, and soon we were outside the pharmacy.

There were three people who came, two middle-aged people and a young man, and when he saw the people who came, Li Ding found that it was Huayang's two apprentices, Lin Xiao and Qi Zheng, as well as the pharmacy disciple named Chen Yu, and hurriedly stepped forward and shouted: "I've seen Teacher Lin, Teacher Qi, Brother Chen is good." ”

The handsome young man named Chen Yu was already familiar with Li Ding, and it was said that the hut where Li Ding lived before was where Chen Yu lived, he just nodded to Li Ding with his lunch box, but Lin Xiao and Qi Zheng, who had seen three or two sides, stared at Li Ding with a surprised expression.

A trace of doubt flashed on Lin Xiao's face, who was about the same size as Huayang, and asked Li Ding, "What did you call me just now?"

Li Ding was about to speak, but he heard Huayang's voice from the pharmacy and said, "I have made him a registered disciple in the pharmacy, and from now on, you and your senior brother Qi are his teachers?"

"Teacher?" Qi Zheng beside Lin Xiao, with a long face that was also a little surprised, said respectfully to the pharmacy: "Master, I have never been a teacher, master, didn't you say that he couldn't become an alchemist at all, let alone ......"

"Could it be that there was something wrong with Qiyuan before?" Lin Xiao asked after interrupting Qi Zheng's words.

"Come in and talk about it. Huayang Road, so everyone rushed in and stood still in the door.

The pharmacy was still steaming, apparently Hua Yang had been refining the pill before, and when everyone came in, they found him filling a red pill into a jade bottle.

After handling the pill, Hua Yang, who was sweating slightly, first asked Lin Xiao and Qi Zheng, "How are your two of you completing your share this month?"

Lin Xiao hurriedly bowed down and replied, "The disciple's share this month is still fifty Ning Yuan Dan, and the rest are ready, and Senior Brother Qi's side may be about the same." As he spoke, he turned his head and glanced at Qi Zheng, who nodded.

"Well, yes, it seems that the two of you have made some progress in refining pills during this time, but it has made it a lot easier to be a teacher, so Qi Zheng, do you have the confidence to take the third-grade alchemist exam at the next alchemist conference?"

Qi Zheng suddenly said: "The disciple will definitely live up to the high expectations of the master, there is still a year and a half before the Alchemist Conference, there should be no problem." ”

"Hehe, that's good. Huayang came to everyone with a smile, and said: "Since the two of you have been able to complete the monthly share in advance, I will give you another task from now on, that is, to be this kid's teacher." After speaking, he looked at Li Ding and smiled slightly.

"The master didn't say that he was ...... inside Only Mu is surnamed Yuanqi, and ......" Qi Zheng stopped talking, and his eyes swept back and forth between Huayang and Li Ding.

Huayang smiled, and did not shy away from Li Ding, and said: "This kid is just a little worse in luck, but his surname is very good for a teacher." He was naturally not qualified to become an alchemist, and with his Yuan Qi grade, if he wanted to make great achievements in his lifetime, unless a miracle occurred. ”

Hearing Huayang's words, although Li Ding was a little depressed in his heart, he didn't show it too much on his face.

Looking at Li Ding's calm demeanor on the side, Lin Xiao couldn't help frowning and said, "What does the master mean?"

"The so-called wealth is in the sky, and success is in the people, although this kid's luck is too bad, but he can come from such a big blow, isn't this worthy of your admiration, so ...... So I thought, even if he can't become a practitioner, at least let him become a pharmacist so that he can live in the future. Huayang said lightly.

"Pharmacist?"

"Pharmacist!"

Everyone exclaimed in unison, Lin Xiao and Qi Zheng just glanced at each other suspiciously, but Li Ding on the side lowered his head and was stunned for a long time.

Could it be that everything Huayang did before was for the sake of his own future? Li Ding suddenly didn't understand why this chubby old man was so kind to himself.

The term pharmacist had been read by Li Ding in a book before. Cultivators are divided into martial artists and alchemists, ordinary cultivators are called martial artists, and if you want to become an alchemist, you must have both fire and wood surnames, although there are many people with fire and wood surnames within the nine wildernesses, but there are very few people who have wood surname vitality at the same time, which determines that the number of alchemists is also very small.

The elixirs refined by the alchemist can treat injuries and illnesses, and some of the elixirs can also help cultivation and promote the improvement of the realm, so the profession of alchemist is very important in this world. However, due to the scarcity of alchemists, ordinary people could not enjoy the benefits of the elixir, and the cost of refining the elixir was considerable, and ordinary people could not afford the high price. Therefore, there is another class of profession in this world that is one level lower than the alchemist, and that is the pharmacist.

Although something that mixes several herbs together without refining it can't be called an elixir, this kind of thing that is of little use to a cultivator is very effective for ordinary people. However, it is not easy to become a pharmacist, and it is also necessary to learn a lot of knowledge from medical books and pharmacopoeia, and perhaps in the future, when Li Ding clarifies the medicinal surnames of various herbs and learns them, he can go to the mainland and become a pharmacist who treats ordinary people.

"What do you think?"

Just when Li Ding was unsettled, Huayang's voice sounded again.

Raising his head, Li Ding found that Hua Yang was looking at him with a smile, "I ......" Li Ding was speechless for a while, and was stunned for a moment before he said: "Why is Lord Hua so good to Li Ding, my current situation has already failed Yu Lao, how can I repay your old man!"

"Huh. Huayang smiled again, "What kind of reward, if the old man is for this, he won't bet on you." To be honest, I want you to become a pharmacist, which is what the old man just thought of. Don't think about it, it's really that you are very fond of the old man, and I don't want you to ...... in the future Let's live a good life in the future. ”

"Live well, live well. Li Ding said to himself, but he stayed for a moment, and there seemed to be tears in his eyes.

Li Ding's sudden change surprised everyone, but they heard him suddenly say: "I will definitely live well, live well." ”

When they raised their heads again, everyone could clearly see a look of extraordinary determination in their eyes.
