Chapter 112: Alchemy Apprentice
Ye Tongxuan came to the family's alchemy school, several rows of tile houses were arranged in a vacant lot, and the largest house in the center was where Lin Chengde and others taught.
The tiled room next to the back stores books related to alchemy, but they are all relatively basic copies, suitable for beginners who are new to this path.
The tiled houses on both sides are used for students to rest and stay, and there is a small tiled house in the corner with some miscellaneous items piled up inside.
During this time in the school, these children live together, which is also to cultivate the feelings of the children of the same generation in the family from an early age, and the members of the family can be more united in the future.
Ye Tongxuan walked into the door, and what caught his eye was an open space, with some mortal weapons hanging on both sides of the clearing, and some wooden stakes neatly placed in between. This is where children usually practice martial arts.
These children in the family all came in to learn the art of alchemy, but the family still let these children learn martial arts from an early age.
First, it is also possible to have some physical skills, not to mention facing monks, at least facing mortals with a certain amount of self-preservation.
Second, and most importantly, the practice of martial arts is also to make these children physically strong.
To refine some basic pills, the requirements for the cultivation of monks should not be too high. The main cultivators of the Alchemy Academy are also alchemy apprentices who refine basic pills.
Although this kind of cultivator can occasionally refine one or two first-order lower-grade pills, his talent is limited, and he can only refine a few pills in his lifetime, so he cannot be regarded as an alchemist, and can only be called an alchemy apprentice.
At present, the only person that the family can cultivate in large quantities is the alchemy apprentice.
Ye Tongxuan approached the tiled house and saw more than a dozen children listening to the lecture in the house. At this time, a white-haired old man was teaching the basic knowledge of alchemy, and he was spitting on the stage, and many children were already deserting off the stage.
On the surface, most of the children look attentive, but you can see that many children are blind, and it seems that their thoughts have wandered into the world.
Ye Tongxuan quietly used his divine sense, scanned it, and found that although these children all had spiritual roots, most of them were miscellaneous spiritual roots, and their achievements in cultivation were not high.
Even so, these children with spiritual roots will also be able to have a position in the family in the future, so the family has exerted a lot of strength to cultivate.
Some children who do not have spiritual roots, at this age, have already begun to share the burden for the family and begin to earn a living.
In addition to learning alchemy, these children also need to be familiar with the rules and regulations of the family, which is also for the children's sense of identity with the family.
These children have been taught elixirs since they were young, so they can also seize the opportunity to get a chance when faced with some elixirs.
As for casual practice, it is all up to oneself to ponder, so casual practice often misses opportunities because of improper understanding, or because it is not well preserved.
Because the monks in the family have been cultivated since childhood, they can maximize the opportunities they encounter and promote their own cultivation.
However, at present, most of the children here have not yet understood the good intentions of the family.
"Be serious!" Lin Chengde came with Ye Tongxuan, and when he saw some children wandering, he couldn't help but remind him loudly.
Frightened by Lin Chengde's angry voice, many children immediately sobered up, sat upright, and listened carefully to the class. For Lin Chengde, a notoriously stern old man, these children are still a little afraid.
Although Ye Tongxuan didn't understand this kind of behavior that interrupted the course of the class, after all, the alchemy teaching was handled by Lin Chengde, so he didn't have much to say.
In Ye Tongxuan's opinion, although Lin Chengde couldn't find any fault in the first-order alchemy, there were still many loopholes in teaching and educating people.
After all, there are relatively few monks in the family, and many people wear many hats, so it is inevitable that there will be some slackness in some things. Lin Chengde treated these children with the same harsh method as he treated his alchemy apprentices, which made Ye Tongxuan disagree.
After all, these children are not very old, and if they are too strict, it will only increase the fear of these children, which is not conducive to their learning.
Ye Tongxuan just stopped for a while, and then left here, after all, these children are still in class, so it's better not to disturb them more.
"Tongxuan, how are these children?" Lin Chengde asked, but his tone was a little depressed, obviously not very satisfied with these children.
"These children are generally talented, and if they are cultivated well, they still have some future."
Lin Chengde shook his head, knowing that Ye Tongxuan was talking a cliché. "Among these children, I don't know if we can cultivate a first-order high-grade alchemist."
"After all, these children are still young, and they can't see a lot of things. In the meantime, I'll leave these kids to teach. Ye Tongxuan said.
These children, after all, are the hope of the family's alchemy in the future, so they naturally want to teach one side well, but now the family conditions are not enough, and they can't invite special instructors to teach the Ye family, and Ye Tongxuan has no better way to do it himself.
Lin Chengde nodded, indicating that he understood Ye Tongxuan's thoughts. "When you're ready, go straight to the lesson."
Three days later, Ye Tongxuan officially began teaching the children.
Ye Tongxuan looked at the dozen or so children sitting with a serious face:
"The knowledge I teach will be of great help to you, especially those who have fire spirit roots in their bodies, and what I am talking about will benefit you for a lifetime."
The children below have been accustomed to those strict old teachers, and today a young teacher came, everyone looked very curious, and the efficiency of listening to the class was much higher.
Ye Tongxuan picked up a copy of "Hundred Herbs" and said: "What I want to talk about today is the identification and collection of elixirs. ”
After speaking, Ye Tongxuan took out a purple elixir and said:
"This plant is called Purple Spirit Grass, a first-order medium-grade elixir, with long branches and leaves, purple stamens, and a strange fragrance. Its stamens can be used as medicine, and they tend to grow in relatively dry places, mostly located on mountain ridges......"
Ye Tongxuan carefully explained to them the shape and distribution area of the elixir, and also brought the purple spirit grass in his hand to them and studied it carefully.
These children looked at the purple spirit grass in Ye Tongxuan's hand, and they all rushed to Ye Tongxuan, wanting to take a closer look.
"You all write down the key points, if you don't understand, you can come and ask me, there are corresponding classics in the library."
Ye Tongxuan walked among the students and watched as these children recorded the main points of the Purple Spirit Grass.
"What's your name?" Ye Tongxuan patted a slightly older child on the shoulder and asked.
"Mr. Yu, my name is Ye Tongwen." The boy quickly got up and said.
"Not bad, not only did I write down the main points of the purple spirit grass, but I also copied the pattern, not bad."
"There are still some who don't study seriously, I have written them down, and you will be punished in the future." Ye Tongxuan looked around and said.
The praised child had a happy face and continued to copy himself. And some of the children who deserted also carefully wrote down the main points because of Ye Tongxuan's warning.
In terms of the whole class, the effect was still good, Ye Tongxuan was also quite satisfied, and the days passed like this.
