A ride to the mountains, a ride to the water. Chapter 7 Zhangjian enters the rivers and lakes

The robe made of fine lines is a little wide, and it is indeed much more comfortable to wear than the coarse linen clothes, and the footsteps step on the soft land that has not traveled far, the breeze is blowing, and the fallen leaves are full of arms, and there is a young Taoist sword into the rivers and lakes.

Chen Nian left the town and headed all the way north, asking around for news of the alchemist. If you want to cultivate this "Heaven Stealing Decision", you need a large number of Healing Bone Pills, and the Healing Bone Pill belongs to the category of first-grade pills and nearly second-grade pills, and you need alchemists of about second grades to refine them.

Although his master was proficient in medical skills before his death, he was not an alchemist, and he could only order herbal conditioning and some ancient recipes, and he couldn't even refine the most ordinary pills, let alone the Healing Bone Pill with nearly two grades of pills.

Chen Nian went all the way north, inquiring about the news, and cultivating and studying the book "Stealing Heaven" along the way, but he didn't find anything for a few days.

Alchemists are much rarer than qi refiners, where can there be any alchemists in this poor and remote area, and even if there is, they have been poached by powerful families or gang sects.

If you want to become an alchemist, the premise must be to refine qi first, and this step alone will stump most people, and you also need to be proficient in pharmacology, and you must also have a talent for refining medicine, which can be described as even more difficult.

Chen Nian walked for several days in a row, and the dry food he brought from the hall had already been eaten, and there was not much copper money left on his body, so he could only find a place to earn money if he couldn't find it.

"Uncle, do you know that there is an alchemist in that place?"

"What? A load of? Do you want a load of? ”

"It's not a load of, it's an alchemist~!"

"Oh, two loads of, Muyou."

"Forehead ......"

Chen Nian looked at the old man who went away speechlessly, what a load of and two loads of, I'm getting you a bottle of horse urine and a plate of sheep eggs, let's drink a cup!

Alas, again for nothing.

Chen Nian lowered his head and sighed, roughly calculated, he had walked nearly two hundred miles for so many days, and he had already passed the boundary of Longxu Town, and those who were not familiar with the place could only ask around.

Just when Chen Nian was depressed, a carriage slowly drove here from the south, and the groom leaned on a little tiredly, obviously driving for a long time.

"Donor, please stay, donor......"

Chen Nian saw a carriage passing by, thinking that it must be known more by outsiders, so he hurriedly beckoned the groom to stop.

The horseman in the carriage asked the people in the carriage after seeing Chen Nian, and then slowly came to Chen Nian and stopped the carriage.

"What's the matter, little Taoist? Can I help you? ”

"Thank you for stopping by, Poor Dao wants to ask you about the alchemist, and I also invite Haihan."

Chen Nian straightened his robe and waved slightly at the groom, treating him politely.

The people in the carriage heard the person poking their heads out of the window to look at Chen Nian and asked,

"What are you little Taoist looking for an alchemist?"

Chen Nian hurriedly explained when he heard this, his face was not red, and his heart did not beat and told a small lie.

"The family teacher got a strange disease a few days ago, and the poor Dao looked for the alchemist to ask for a pill."

The middle-aged man in the carriage nodded slightly after hearing this, looking at this little Taoist priest, who was not very old and a poor man, with a loose Taoist robe on his body, and a sword behind him, he was too bored along the way and wanted to find someone to chat with for a while.

"I know the news of the alchemist, come up, talk slowly on the way."

Chen Nian was overjoyed when he heard this, and after thinking for a moment, he nodded and got into the carriage.

"Sit down."

"Thank you, donor."

Chen Nian thanked him again and sat down next to him, and glanced at the middle-aged man in front of him, with a beautiful face, silk satin, and a jade pendant pinned to his waist, which was much more generous than the big Liu family in Caishi Town before.

"You little Taoist priest is also polite, what kind of strange illness does the family teacher have, you have to ask the alchemist to refine the pill."

The middle-aged man said a greeting, and also looked at Chen Nian slightly.

"The tutor was bedridden and unable to walk."

"Well, that's pretty serious."

Chen Nian smiled slightly, and hurriedly asked for the news of the alchemist.

"Does the donor know the news of this alchemist? Poor Dao inquired for a long time, but found nothing. ”

"There are indeed few alchemists in dozens of towns around here, and they are all monopolized by those gang sects, but there is one in Jinyang City, and my trip is also to get a pill, but it's just ......"

"Just what?"

Chen Nian followed the middle-aged man's words.

"It's just that this alchemist has a strange personality, he is not a member of the surrounding gang sects, nor is he a person from the city lord of Jinyang City, he does not belong to any force, he only sees a doctor for those poor people, and he doesn't take a penny according to his preferences, he only gives prescriptions and does not give pills."

"My father is seriously ill, and I am also seeking a pill this time, even if I can't get a prescription, at least it's worth the trip."

"This ,,, only give prescriptions, not pills, isn't it just to treat ordinary people, and not to provide pills to those who refine qi."

Chen Nian also smacked his tongue slightly after hearing this, this person does have a strange personality, he doesn't make money and his power doesn't climb, but he treats those ordinary people for free.

You must know that most of the pills refined by alchemists are provided for those who refine qi, and the medicinal properties of the pills also tend to be those of those who refine qi, and they are expensive, so ordinary people can't use them at all.

Could it be that he is a fake alchemist who doesn't know how to make pills at all? Under the guise of this way? But why don't you take a penny?

Chen Nian was puzzled, but he finally asked about the news of the alchemist, even if it was fake, he had to take a look, what if it was true? That's more than worth the loss.

Then Chen Nian exchanged a few polite words with the middle-aged man in the carriage, briefly understood, and then took the carriage that was made for free all the way north to Jinyang City.

……

This Jinyang City belongs to a very small city in Lizhou, and it is also located in a corner.

Although it is a city, it seems not much bigger than a town, and the other cities in Lizhou do not recognize it as a city at all, but only treat it as a town.

However, even if Jinyang City is small, and other cities no longer recognize it, it is indeed under the direct management of Lizhou, and the city lord is also directly sent down from Lizhou.

Chen Nian followed the carriage all the way forward, walked for two days and one night before arriving at the place, and it was already noon when he came to the city gate, Chen Nian looked at the city wall several feet high and took a light breath.

It was the first time in so many years to go to such a distant place, and it was also the first time to see such a magnificent city, which couldn't help but make him excited.

"Master Li, it's been too much trouble for you in the past two days, so let's get off here."

Chen Nian saluted Li Xianqi in the carriage, he was too embarrassed to eat him and live in him for the past two days, it would be too unkind to spend his money when he entered the city, and Chen Nian was not so thick-skinned.

"Why don't you go into the city for a cup of tea after a tiring day?"

Li Xianqi smiled slightly, in the past two days, he still likes this little Taoist priest who talks well and treats people gently.

"Don't bother the donor, let's go down here."

Li Xianqi nodded slightly and asked the groom to stop the carriage, and Chen Nian gave Li Xianqi a nod after getting out of the car.

"Little Taoist, next time I'll see you and invite you to tea."

"There is no such thing as drinking."

"Hahaha......"

The carriage slowly drove into the city to the laughter of the two.
