In the evening, the city gates were closed.

The people of the city were not allowed to go out of the city at night.

Similarly, people from outside the city cannot enter the city without a warrant.

On the way back, Chen Xuan passed by a pharmacy, entered the pharmacy and asked, "Shopkeeper, have the medicinal materials arrived?" ”

The shopkeeper shook his head and said: "Alas, the few medicinal materials you want are only available in Yishui County, but now Yishui County is in chaos, and some commercial houses have purchased goods in Yishui County, and they have been robbed eight times out of ten, and they have been robbed too many times, so no one dares to go." ”

"Then pack me a few pairs of other herbs!"

Chen Xuan reported the names of several medicinal materials.

"Holo."

The shopkeeper of the pharmacy stood up and turned around to grab the medicine in the medicine cabinet.

After a while, Chen Xuan left the pharmacy with a few packets of medicinal herbs.

Then, he went to another pharmacy and bought a few packets of different herbs.

When he got home, Chen Xuan began to light a fire, boil water, and chop up the medicinal herbs and put them in the Dan furnace.

Now, there are two secret elixirs on the market.

One of them is Jiuyang Lingjin Pill, a bottle of ten pills, priced at twenty taels.

The other, called the Leopard Fetal Strong Muscle Pill, has only about one-fifth of the effect of the Jiuyang Lingjin Pill, but the price is also much cheaper than the Jiuyang Lingjin Pill, only five taels of silver for a bottle.

The price of Leopard Fetal Strong Muscle Pill is cheap, in addition to the fact that the medicinal effect is not as good as Jiuyang Lingjin Pill, there is also a drawback.

That is, if you take too much, the effect will become weaker and weaker.

If you have been taking the Leopard Fetal Tendon Strengthening Pill, it is difficult to train the big tendon to the limit, but some scattered martial artists are shy in their pockets, so they will still buy the Leopard Fetal Tendon Strengthening Pill for cultivation, until there is no effect, and then change to the Jiuyang Lingjin Pill.

Because the medicinal materials for refining Jiuyang Lingjin Pill have always been out of stock, Chen Xuan refining Leopard Fetal Strong Muscle Pill is used to improve the proficiency of medicinal arts, and the difference between these two secret medicines is that the main medicine is different.

The rest of the adjuvants are the same.

The difficulty of refining the secret medicine of the Yi Jin Realm is much more difficult than that of the Dermabrasion Realm, and it is difficult to refine it with an ordinary casserole, which he summed up after experiencing dozens of failures.

Then it was tested nearly 100 times with the Dan furnace before successfully refining the leopard fetus strong tendon pill.

Chen Xuan was engrossed in putting the same medicinal materials into the Dan furnace, each medicinal material had a different proportion, and the order could not be wrong, stirring these medicinal materials to control the heat.

In the beginning, the heat should not be too big or too small.

Otherwise, the final result will affect the efficacy of the Leopard Fetal Spirit Muscle Pill.

The medicinal herbs were all condensed together, pasted into a ball, added water, added oil, and covered the Dan furnace.

Then the low fire slowly scorched the Dan furnace.

Time keeps ticking.

The sun goes down and night covers the land.

In the middle of the night, the medicinal herbs in the Dan furnace turned into ointment.

During this period, Chen Xuan added water six times and oil three times.

After the ointment was formed, Chen Xuan used a shovel to stir the ointment evenly in the Dan furnace, and burned it for about half an hour, before he extinguished the fire and let the ointment cool down.

After the ointment cooled, he kneaded the ointment into a thumb-sized pill.

Soon.

In front of Chen Xuan, he kneaded the ointment into fifty leopard fetal tendon strengthening pills.

A bottle of ten Leopard Fetal Strong Muscle Pills is five taels of silver, and fifty pills are twenty-five taels of silver, and the cost of the medicinal materials used to refine these fifty Leopard Fetal Strong Muscle Pills is only three taels of silver.

"Selling secret medicine is really a huge profit!"

Putting fifty leopard fetal strong tendon pills into the porcelain bottle, Chen Xuan sighed.

Unfortunately, not everyone can sell secret medicines.

In Qingshui County, the government, the family, the sect, the martial arts, and the gangs are all major forces.

Among them, the gang power is undoubtedly the weakest, which can only squeeze small people and small businessmen, and control some unpopular businesses, such as gambling houses, flower houses, cockfighting rings, martial arts arenas, pear orchards, etc.

These gang forces are not qualified to sell secret medicines.

The lack of secret medicine recipes is one thing, and on the other hand, the strength is not enough to maintain such huge interests.

Even if it is a martial arts hall, the secret medicine can only be used by the disciples of the martial arts hall, and cannot be sold.

The reason why the Giant Bear Martial Arts Hall can sell secret medicine is because he inherited the Dragon Elephant Gate, a powerful force that can rank in the top three in Yingchuan County, and has the Dragon Elephant Gate as a backer, so he can naturally do the secret medicine business.

In addition to the Giant Bear Martial Arts Hall, the other few that can sell secret medicines are all big forces in Yingchuan County.

The families in Qingshui County are not qualified, at most they follow behind to drink some soup, and several of them started by planting the medicinal materials needed for secret medicine.

"I heard that there is a black market in Qingshui County, which specializes in selling shady black goods, whether it is a buyer or a seller, I don't ask where it comes from, maybe I can go to the black market to sell secret medicines."

Chen Xuan said secretly in his heart.

He has been on patrol for two months, and he has to deal with gangs on weekdays.

I heard a lot of gossip.

This black market is one of them.

It is said that everything is sold, and everything dares to be sold!

This black market is not limited to Qingshui County, other counties and county towns all have black markets.

There are even rumors that the bandit army burns and loots in various places, and the stolen goods are sold through the ghost market.

"You can't buy the medicinal materials for refining the Jiuyang Lingjin Pill through normal channels, and it seems that you can only buy them on the black market."

After pondering for a while, Chen Xuan decided to take a trip to the black market.

In addition to buying the medicinal materials for refining the Jiuyang Lingjin Pill, there are also thousands of Leopard Fetal Strong Muscle Pills he has refined these days, and he can't use so much by himself at all, so he has to sell them all.

However, the black market is only open once every half a month, and it is not yet time to open, and he also needs to make some preparations, any kind of person in the black market may encounter, and he needs to refine some poison and ecstasy for self-defense, in case of emergency.
