At night, in the new residence of Qian Chao.

Cai Jian already had some fear in his heart when he faced this Senior Brother Qian this time, and now there are still rumors about Qian Chao in Jiuxuan, and Cai Jian is a well-informed person, so he can be regarded as the one who knows best what Qian Chao did when Yan Shuang was attacked that night, naturally he knows that this Senior Brother Qian, who seems to be not high in cultivation, seems to have a good temper, and has always been generous, actually killed dozens of people with his own hands, and dozens of lives were lost in his hands, and there are not a few disciples in the sect who are brave and ruthless. There are many ruthless people, but who has ever killed so hard! Although Qian Chao still looked smiling and behaved decently, he was still "Senior Brother Cai, Senior Brother Cai" in front of him, but Cai Jian couldn't help but have a sudden break in his heart.

Fortunately, Cai Jian is also a lot of people, although he is a little wary of Qian Chao in his heart, but he can't see anything on his face.

"Senior Brother Cai, the people on this list, please ask Senior Brother Cai to help me check it."

As he spoke, Qian Chao handed over a piece of paper.

Cai Jian took it and found that there were more than a dozen names on the paper, and he couldn't help but look at Qian Chao with some curiosity, and saw a small bag that Qian Chao handed over again with a smile.

Cai Jian didn't care about anything, he opened the small bag in front of Qian Chao, and after briefly checking the number of spirit stones inside, the already small amount of flesh on his face couldn't help but tremble.

"Senior Brother Cai, I know that there are more people to investigate this time, but Senior Brother Cai doesn't have to worry, just ask slowly, what can be asked within a month is what it is, after a month, please Senior Brother Cai will tell me what you heard, what I paid to Senior Brother Cai just now is only half, and after a month, I will pay Senior Brother Cai the same amount of spirit stones."

Cai Jian immediately dispelled the curiosity in his heart, originally he wanted to ask Qian Chao about the purpose of these people, but after looking at the spirit stones in the small bag and hearing that there would be the same number of spirit stones in a month, he immediately knew that it was not a good thing for him to do that, anyway, this senior brother Qian is at least a reasonable person, and he knows the truth that if you let the horse run, you have to add night material to the horse, for the sake of the spirit stone, he will also do this thing well.

"Well, Senior Brother Qian, don't worry, a month later, at this time, I will come to Senior Brother Qian again to ensure that Senior Brother Qian is satisfied."

"Then thank you, oh, Senior Brother Cai, ask more, well, there have been a lot of rumors about me recently, has anyone asked Senior Brother Cai about my news during this time?"

"Well, to be honest, there are people talking about it when chatting, but those people don't give spirit stones, so naturally I won't say anything, and Senior Brother Qian's background is very innocent, and he only practices on weekdays, so there's nothing to talk about, don't worry, Senior Brother Qian, I understand what you mean, if someone asks me or someone else about you, hehe, Senior Brother Qian, don't worry, I will definitely tell you."

"Thank you very much!"

……

After sending Cai Jian away, Qian Chao cleaned up a little and walked into the underground cave of his residence.

Cheng Qiantang's house for himself is really good, originally his own small courtyard was too narrow, and there was no place to do many things he wanted to do, but now, not only is the place much more spacious and comfortable, but also there is a relatively private place to conduct his own research, even if someone visits, there is no need to temporarily rush to clean up, and the visitors will not think of what is in the cave below.

In this way, Qian Chao kept himself in the underground cave for almost several days and never came out.

In the past few days, Tang Ping had come to Jiuxuan to find Qian Chao, she didn't know if Qian Chao had changed his residence, or went to his original small courtyard, but it was empty, Tang Ping was still in a daze, I didn't understand what the hell Qian boy was doing, and asked a few Jiuxuan disciples who passed by, and those people didn't know where Qian Chao had moved now, and finally Tang Ping returned in a huff.

Later, Qian Chao came out of his residence and went straight to the market in Jiuxuan, where he didn't know what he bought, and when he returned, he stuffed himself in the underground cave again.

A few days later, when Qian Chao appeared in his spacious and beautiful yard again, somehow, his face was excited.

Then he walked around the sect and went to find four companions.

"You've moved? Where did you move? I went to look for you a few days ago, but your small courtyard was already empty, and I don't know if I ask others. Tang Ping couldn't wait to ask as soon as she saw Qian Chao.

"Naturally, it's much better than that small courtyard, you'll know when you go tomorrow."

"Can't you go today?"

"Uh...... It's still tomorrow, and everyone has gathered to celebrate my housewarming. ”

"That'...... Can I find your new place to live by clicking on this? ”

Tang Ping raised a piece of paper given by Qian Chao, on which there was a simple road map drawn by Qian Chao, marking the location of his current residence.

"Of course."

"Mysterious, hey, money boy, you don't want us to give you a gift just because you moved, do you?"

"Haha, that's not necessary, but after all, my current residence is not bad, please go over and have a good time."

"Well, okay, then I'll go over with Sister Yan tomorrow."

Then Qian Chao went to Yan Xuan and Li Jian again, and finally went to find Lu Pingchuan, Lu Pingchuan didn't want to wait until tomorrow, so he went directly to his new residence with Qian Chao, and even praised that it was much more spacious than before, and there would be a place for him to sleep in the future.

……

"Brother Li!"

Li Jian, who was going to the invitation of Qian Chao, heard someone calling him from behind, and turned around to see that it was Tang Ping and Yan Xuan, two girls, who were walking towards him with a smile, although they had been together for a few years, they had long been familiar with each other, Li Jian was still from a family of military generals, and it was said that his temperament should be the most rude, but he was the most restrained and polite among several people, and he couldn't learn the indifference of Qian Chao's leisurely and free and easy to grasp the proportions just right, let alone learn the call of Lu Pingchuan's "Tang Meizi Yan Mei" who was very grinning when he met, so he smiled lightly and said:

"Miss Tang, Miss Yan, you have also arrived."

"Yes, I don't know what this guy has to show when he moves, I have to come over to take a look and celebrate his housewarming!" Tang Ping said.

Yan Xuan's spirit has also improved recently, and he and Tang Ping held each other's arms along the way, and when Tang Ping said this, he shook her arm and said angrily:

"You've been chanting it several times along the way, and it's about to arrive, so you won't know if you go in and see it."

"Well, it's here, Brother Li, let's go, let's go in and have a look."

Not far in front is the gate of Qian Chao's new residence, and several people are looking for it all the way according to the map given by Qian Chao. Tang Ping and Yan Xuan walked into the door of Qian Chao's new residence together, and Li Jian followed behind.

Sure enough, it is completely different from the small courtyard before Qian Chao!

The four sides of the circumference are the courtyard wall built with bluestone, the stone wall has been crawled with pothos, the fine stone like broken jade is almost paved with the entire wide courtyard, the bluestone wall on both sides also has flower beds, such as the brocade carpet of all kinds of exotic flowers and plants attract bees and butterflies to surround, the center of the courtyard is a carved wooden pavilion, under the wooden pavilion there is a white jade case with a round body, several futons woven with the heart of the grass are arranged on both sides of the case, over the white jade case, is facing the gate is the residence of Qian Chao, a two-storey fine house with heavy eaves flying corners, On closer inspection, the house is not made of brick and stone, and the smooth walls and openwork panes are faintly revealing a trace of purple gas like the pillars under the eaves. There are no wings on both sides, only a few bushes of bamboo are dotted and extend to the back of the house, which is very quiet.

The three of them were all stunned when they entered the door, they had all seen the cramped residence of Qian Chao before, and now it can be said that it is very different from it.

"Wow! Not bad! ”

Tang Ping looked around and let out an exclamation.

Li Jian and Yan Xuan looked around, and although they didn't say anything, they nodded frequently.

At this time, there were already two people sitting next to the white jade case in the center of the courtyard, naturally Qian Chao and Lu Pingchuan.

Qian Chao was still holding an unknown book in his hand and was studying quietly, Lu Pingchuan saw the three people coming in and waved to them and then stuffed the unknown thing in his hand into his mouth and chewed it, his actions made Qian Chao let go of the book in his hand, and looked up and saw the three of them with a slight smile and got up to greet them.

Tang Ping strode over and sat down on the futon facing Qian Chao, first snatched the book in Qian Chao's hand, and then stuffed it back after looking at it and was not interested, and then asked Qian Chao:

"The five sects in the sect all know that you Jiuxuan are famous for many people, and the disciples' residences are crowded like bird cages, how shabby your previous residence was! Look at it now, hey, what bad things did you do to get such a good house. ”

Originally, according to Tang Ping's temperament, she had to add a sentence "I want to move here", but fortunately, she found out in time that something was wrong, and forcibly stopped the sentence that caused people to reverie.

Qian Chao smiled, asked Li Jian and Yan Xuan to sit down, and then made a move in the air, and a pot of fragrant tea that was slightly boiling and overflowing with tea fragrance on the left near the tandoor flew to his hand, grabbed the handle of the teapot, and Qian Chao filled the teacup for the four of them and himself.

"Hmm, it's a fragrant tea, tell me quickly, how did you get this house?"

"I have a good relationship with a senior brother Cheng in the door, that is, the senior brother Cheng who taught us the art of refining weapons in the Chengqi Hall, this house was originally his, just a few days ago Senior Brother Cheng was fortunate to be accepted as a disciple by a senior Shen in Jiuxuan, in order to facilitate the practice, Senior Brother Cheng lived outside the cave mansion of the senior Shen, and this place was empty, Senior Brother Cheng knew that my original residence was cramped, and he gave me this courtyard on the day he bowed to the master."

Don't say that the Nine Xuans mean that in the entire Five Spirits Sect, once the disciples' cultivation reaches the foundation level, they are qualified to choose a pure and spiritual place to open up a cave according to their own wishes, and live and practice in it. Therefore, the disciples in the Qi refining period actually don't care about their residences, even if they are repaired as magnificent as a palace, they will have to give up sooner or later, such as this Senior Brother Cheng in Qian Chao's mouth, he has entered the disciple of a monk in the Dan period, and it is basically only a matter of time before he builds a foundation, so he gave this good mansion to Qian Chao, who has a good relationship.

Several people understand the truth of this, among them, Li Jian and Lu Pingchuan have a small number of teachers, so their residences are quite generous. Lu Pingchuan didn't care where he lived at all, and Li Jian was sitting on the hillside of Muxiufeng, and he was only living in a bamboo house, so the two of them had no other intention about Qian Chao's new residence except that it was much more exquisite and spacious than before.

However, Tang Ping and Yan Xuan's two daughters are a little envious of Qian Chao's new residence, Yan Xuan's residence in Qixia Mountain is also a delicate courtyard, but there are also many other female disciples of Qixia Mountain living nearby.

As for Tang Ping, her temperament is a little wild, although she knows that she can't leave her master now, and the residence where Gu Yu Fairy is also very delicate and comfortable, but finally under the nose of the master, compared to Li Jian, compared to the current Qian Chao here, she always feels as if she is a little less free, so now she is full of envy when she sees Qian Chao's house.

"You're in luck!" Tang Ping sighed helplessly and took a sip of tea.

"Senior Brother Cheng? Which Senior Brother Cheng? Yan Xuan suddenly remembered something, and had some doubts about the Senior Brother Cheng mentioned by Qian Chao.

"That's it" Qian Chao was also curious, why Yan Xuan, who had always been quiet, suddenly asked Senior Brother Cheng, "It is Senior Brother Cheng Qiantang, who has always been responsible for teaching alchemy to new disciples, and was accepted under the door by our Jiuxuan Shen Mulin seniors not long ago, why, why did Sister Yan ask about this Senior Brother Cheng?" ”

"Sure enough, it's him." Yan Xuan said while holding the teacup.

"Oh? Is there anything wrong with this Senior Brother Cheng? Qian Chao observed his words, and asked after Yan Xuan finished speaking, when he asked like this, the rest of the people also looked at Yan Xuan curiously.

Suddenly, Tang Ping seemed to think of something, and said, "Oh, I remember, it's that Senior Brother Cheng who has a relationship with your two senior sisters in Qixia Mountain, Mei Min, right?" ”

"Yes," Yan Xuan nodded, and when he saw that everyone was looking at him, he told him what he knew.

As mentioned above, among the disciples of Qixia Mountain, regardless of men, among the many female disciples in the Qi refining period, with cultivation, alchemy and posture, there are two female disciples who are overwhelming and indistinguishable, one is Mei Qing, and the other is Min E. These two women are both diligent and diligent, and they also have extraordinary attainments in alchemy, and what is even more rare is that these two women are both beauties with bright eyes and bright teeth, and they look forward to being beautiful, so some people have already given these two women a nickname, called "Mei Min Shuangshu".

This Mei Min's second daughter and Cheng Qiantang and Xiao Xian, Mo Wen was born in the same place of five different small families, in the early years came to the Five Spirits Sect to practice, in addition to Xiao Xian and Mo Wen, Mei Mincheng The three small families have some in-laws with each other, so these three people have known each other for a long time, so they have long been in contact, and they have also gone out together many times to earn spirit stones for the Academy. As he grew older, Senior Brother Cheng already had a soft spot for Na Mei Qing, but Na Mei Qing seemed to be unknown. In fact, it was not the case, in that Mei Qing's heart, he had already secretly promised a Qi refining monk surnamed Cao, and the monk surnamed Cao had already reached the time to rush to the pass to build a foundation, and he was currently in retreat.

It can be regarded as a bad fate, Min'e doesn't know when she secretly has feelings for this Senior Brother Cheng, and her eyes are full of the figure of this Senior Brother Cheng, so she does not hesitate to put down the reserve of her daughter's family, and frequently visits Senior Brother Cheng for some reason, giving Dan and medicine, how can Senior Brother Cheng's heart have already been filled with Mei Qing's shadow, but Mei Qing has been looking forward to that Senior Brother Cao, thinking that after he also builds the foundation, the two will form a Taoist couple, and live and live together, so it has become a picture of carp wanting to swallow bait, silver carp tail, and carp not leaving silver carp. In fact, based on these three people alone, I really can't talk about who to blame, Na Mei secretly rejected this Senior Brother Cheng early in the morning, but Senior Brother Cheng has always been obsessed with immortality, and he has been suffering from Min'e, who is also infatuated.

Among the disciples of Qixia Mountain, especially among the female disciples, most of them feel that Senior Sister Mei has a cold and arrogant personality and is not easy to approach, but this Senior Sister Min has a quiet and amiable temperament, and she is also very helpful to her younger brothers and sisters, especially Yan Xuan, who is very close to Min'e, the two are nominally senior sisters and are actually no different from their best friends, but they are not as close as Tang Ping, and the matter between Senior Sister Min and Senior Brother Cheng is either heard from others or listened to Min'e herself, Yan Xuan also knows a lot now, so naturally Senior Sister Min is not worth it because of Senior Sister Min's grievances. Therefore, Yan Xuan only asked more questions when he heard Qian Chao mention Senior Brother Cheng, and only then did he vent these things when he was sure that it was Senior Brother Cheng who made Senior Sister Min sad.

Everyone listened quietly, but the performance was different, Li Jian sat next to Yan Xuan, at first he thought he could hear some secrets in the sect, but it turned out to be some romantic affairs between men and women, and he couldn't help but lose his interest, and listened to Yan Xuan finish drinking tea. Lu Pingchuan didn't care about these things, and just stuffed the cakes into his mouth piece by piece. Tang Ping, like Yan Xuan, has a good impression of Senior Sister Namin, so when she heard this, she was also worried about Senior Sister Namin. Qian Chao listened carefully, looking thoughtful, not knowing what he was thinking.

Yan Xuan's words reminded Qian Chao of what he saw at Senior Brother Cheng's apprenticeship ceremony, Senior Brother Cheng was really courteous to that Senior Sister Mei, and Senior Sister Min was also very enthusiastic about Senior Brother Cheng.

Seeing that Yan Xuan was a little depressed when he said this, Tang Ping opened his mouth and said to Qian Chao: "Hey, let's get down to business, you won't call us all over when you move, there must be other things, hurry up." After that, he took a small bag off the ribbon around his waist and put it on the white jade case, "These two little guys must have smelled something delicious, and they refused to settle down in it." ”

The first thing that came out of the bag was the fox Xiaobai, and then the little golden monkey called "rhubarb" by Tang Ping, after Xiaobai came out, he shook his pure white hair and stretched his body, the little golden monkey rhubarb had already begun to drag a large plate full of delicious cakes on the case to Tang Ping, but he couldn't drag it after just taking two steps upside down, the plate was held down by a thick finger of Lu Pingchuan, and Rhubarb didn't dare to provoke Lu Pingchuan, Just chirped twice in protest, then turned around, but suddenly turned around again, picked up two cakes from the plate, and flew away, as if jumping on Tang Ping's shoulder, and also raised the cake in his hand to show off to Lu Pingchuan, which made Lu Pingchuan laugh.

The appearance of the two little guys swept away the previous dullness, and even Li Jian couldn't help but caress Xiaobai's back a few times, and then looked up and said to Qian Chao:

"Brother Qian, Miss Tang is right, you must have something important to say."

"That's right," Qian Chao took his eyes off Tang Ping's two spirit beasts and said to the four of them with a smile, "It's true that there is something to ask everyone to come here today, but before that, there are a few things that need to be asked to be held by Sister Yan." ”

"Oh?" Yan Xuan, who was teasing Xiaobai with a piece of cake, was a little surprised when he heard this, and spread the cake in his hand in the palm of his hand and let Xiaobai take it away, and he looked at Qian Chao curiously, "Me? What is it? ”

Qian Chao smiled without saying a word, took out a delicate long wooden box from a storage bag and handed it to Yan Xuan, and everyone's eyes were attracted by the wooden box.

Yan Xuan took the wooden box, she probably knew what was inside from the shape of the wooden box, looked up at Qian Chao again, and opened the wooden box when he nodded.

A green herb lay silently on the satin surface of the wooden box.

Tang Ping and Li Jian didn't understand what they meant, they both looked up at Qian Chao, and when they saw Qian Chao smiling and silent, they turned their eyes to Yan Xuan again.

"This is a Tian Xinlan."

Although Yan Xuan didn't understand why Qian Chao asked her to see a medicinal herb, she was in Qixia Mountain, which is famous for her alchemy, and she was in the company of spiritual herbs and elixirs all day long.

"This Tian Xinlan has about fifteen years of fire, this is very rare, its roots are the main medicine for the preparation of Jing Xin San, and the stems and leaves are the indispensable auxiliary medicine for refining the dust removal pill. As soon as this Tian Xinlan blooms in sixteen years, the whole herb is not available after flowering, and it can only be seeded after the flowers fall, so the fifteen-year-old Tian Xinlan can be regarded as the best, but Tian Xinlan is not a very rare spiritual grass. ”

Qian Chao smiled and nodded, but took out another wooden box from the storage bag and handed it to Yan Xuan.

After the wooden box was opened, everyone saw a yellow-green spirit grass with flat and wide leaves, and a trace of red veins on the vertical row of the leaves.

Yan Xuan gently took out the spirit grass, and after carefully examining it, he said to Qian Chao:

"This is the red line grass, the red line grass pays attention to the seven leaves and nine silks as the top grade, and it is the main medicine for refining the Yufeng Pill, your strain is six leaves and nine silks, which is already quite rare, and it should have at least more than twenty years of fire."

"Sister Yan is smart, please take a look at this again." Qian Chao smiled again and handed Yan Xuan a wooden box.

Although Tang Ping on the side was not happy with Qian Chao selling Guan Zi like this, she knew that there must be a reason for Qian Chao's actions, so when she saw Qian Chao take out another box, she had to listen to Yan Xuan patiently.

"This is the Tuandi grass, also called Dangyang Mao, the roots and leaves are the same as the same medicine, it is the main medicine for refining the Tiger Ben Pill, the Tiger Ben Pill is generally refined for Brother Lu's Houtu Temple, it is an indispensable elixir for the cultivation of people who are physically cultivated, and the six taels of Tuandi grass are treasures......

Saying that, Yan Xuan picked up the ball of grass that was knotted together in the wooden box and checked it in his hand, and said with a different color behind him:

"Seven taels are more than enough, eight taels are insufficient, it's really rare!"

"Oh, the Tiger Ben Pill is actually refined by this kind of spirit grass, this is the first time I know about it." Hearing the Tiger Ben Pill, Lu Pingchuan couldn't help but take a few more glances at that herb.

Yan Xuan just nodded and saw Qian Chao hand over a box with a smile, although she was curious why Qian Chao gave herself so many spiritual grasses for herself to inspect, but her personality was gentle and peaceful, since Qian Chao handed it over, she took it and opened it, but after seeing the contents of the wooden box, she frowned.

"This is a grass grape, this is not a commonly used thing in Qixia Mountain," Sure enough, there are black and purple berries growing on the green stems and leaves in the wooden box, exuding a hint of sweet fragrance, "This grass grape is rarely used in medicine, at least the Danfang in my hand does not use grass grapes, but it is often used in brewing spirit wine, Ah Ping should know more about this than me." ”

Saying that, Yan Xuan looked at Tang Ping.

Tang Ping had already recognized that it was the grass grape at a glance, so he said to Qian Chao:

"Indeed grass grapes ......"

As soon as he finished speaking, a fluffy little paw grabbed the grass grapes in the wooden box, it turned out that the little golden monkey rhubarb couldn't stand the temptation of the sweet smell of the grass grapes, and couldn't help but pick a few to relieve his hunger, Tang Ping patted the monkey paws of the rhubarb angrily, and ignored the scoundrel coquettish of the golden monkey and continued to say to Qian Chao:

"One is born a year, and each one wears a purple robe, the purple robe can prolong life, and the black robe can not get old. Your grass grapes are already black and purple, of course it's good, hey, money boy, don't sell it, are you here to test us today? Take out all the boxes you have there! ”

It was originally a sentence of anger, but I didn't expect Qian Chao to smile and sigh:

"Alright then, then take it all out."

After speaking, he saw that Qian Chao was busy for a while, and kept taking out the wooden boxes one by one from the storage bag and putting them on the white jade case, Lu Pingchuan saw that he moved the plate of food on the case to the side, and after a while, the wooden box was stacked with as many as two layers, and then Qian Chao stopped and said with a smile:

"That's all."

This surprised a few people, and even Lu Pingchuan stopped and looked at the wooden boxes on the case. Tang Ping casually took a wooden box, opened it and found that it was still a spirit grass, but he didn't know what kind of spirit grass it was, so he handed it to Yan Xuan casually, and then looked at Qian Chao and said in surprise:

"Where did you get so much spirit grass, could it be that you are going to change your career to the herb business?"

Seeing Qian Chao smiling and shaking his head without saying a word, he grabbed the storage bag in front of him angrily, and only after finding that it was really empty did he give up.

Yan Xuan took the box that Tang Ping handed her, but after seeing what was inside, she was a little surprised, patted Tang Ping's arm and said to Qian Chao:

"This is anchovy, a rare spirit grass, I have been looking for this flavor spirit grass for a long time, I didn't expect Brother Qian to get it, it is rare that it is still born so well, this is the main medicine for refining Yurong Dan, this kind of pill is generally liked by female monks, after taking it, it can make female monks look gorgeous and youthful......"

Most of the female monks and the women in the world generally love beauty, looking at the entire cultivation world, but all female monks almost do not show people with the appearance of old pearls and yellows, goosebumps, and at worst, they must be a middle-aged beauty, so this pill such as Yurong Dan and Zhuyan Dan is quite popular with female cultivators, because she feels shy, the more Yan Xuan speaks, the quieter her voice becomes. Tang Ping's eyes became brighter and brighter when she heard it, she looked at Yan Xuan, and when she saw Yan Xuan nodding lightly, she couldn't wait to reach out and hold down the wooden box containing the phoenix amaranth and said:

"Money boy, this phoenix tail belongs to me!"

Then I saw Qian Chao nodding with a smile, and then I was relieved.

Then Yan Xuan identified the spiritual grasses in the wooden box taken out by the rest of Qian Chao one by one, what "nine-leaf whiptail vine", "lure orchid", "golden calamus", "star and moon buds" and so on a total of more than a dozen flavor of spiritual grass, not only said which elixirs these spiritual grasses can refine, but also classified the quality of these spiritual grasses according to the upper, middle and lower grades, of which there are not many upper grades, the most middle grades, and the least lower grades. The wooden box that was originally full of white jade cases is now stacked in three parts.

"Anything else?"

Tang Ping saw that Yan Xuan was busy and asked Qian Chao, and at this time, Yan Xuan also looked at Qian Chao with inquiring eyes.

"Nope." Qian Chao replied.

"That spirit grass has seen it, shouldn't you also tell me what you called us here for today?" Tang Ping said.

"Don't worry, what I'm going to talk about today has a lot to do with these spirit grasses, Sister Yan, have you noticed anything different about these spirit grasses?"

Yan Xuan was a little confused when she heard this, most of these spirit grasses were in good condition, and the year was sufficient, but if there was anything different, she had identified them one by one, and she didn't find anything abnormal.

Seeing that Yan Xuan was confused, Tang Ping said to Yan Xuan:

"Sister Yan, have you recently made trouble stealing in the elixir garden of Qixia Mountain and lost a lot of elixir?"

One sentence made Qian Chao laugh.

Yan Xuan ignored the two of them, and only carefully sorted out the process of distinguishing the medicine just now in his heart and said to Qian Chao:

"Brother Qian, there's nothing wrong with these spirit grasses?"

Qian Chao also smiled when he saw this, and said to Yan Xuan:

"Sister Yan, please take a good look, are these spirit grasses a little different from the spirit grasses you use for alchemy on weekdays?"

Seeing that Qian Chao suddenly became solemn, everyone couldn't help but look at Yan Xuan again, but Yan Xuan was a little cramped at this time, she opened a few wooden boxes to re-examine, and still couldn't see the difference between these spirit grasses and the spirit grasses she used on weekdays.

Yan Xuan's nervousness made Tang Ping a little dissatisfied with Qian Chao, she glanced at Qian Chao and asked:

"What kind of medicine are you selling in this gourd?"

"Don't worry, Sister Yan's intelligence will definitely see the clues."

Qian Chao still hadn't revealed the mystery, but just nodded slightly at Tang Ping.

Yan Xuan opened a few more wooden boxes and checked them, and couldn't help but feel a little frustrated, most of the spirit grasses she could get from Qixia Mountain for alchemy on weekdays were low-grade, after all, she was just a small Qi refining disciple in Qixia Mountain, and high-level spirit grasses would not be given to her for alchemy, although she could also get many good spirit grasses outside, but most of them were miscellaneous and of different quality, most of these spirit grasses on the case were medium-grade, and there were also high-grade, but the difference in quality was definitely not what Qian Chao was referring to. Faintly Yan Xuan felt that what Qian Chao wanted to say today should be extraordinary, otherwise he would not have to tell the secrets of these spiritual grasses through his own mouth, you must know that Qian Chao has never been embarrassed by others.

So what's the difference between these spirit grasses?

Yan Xuan looked up at Qian Chao, and saw that he nodded to himself encouragingly, so she looked away again, and her wandering gaze swept over the flowers and plants in Qian Chao's courtyard and the bamboo cultivation by the wall, and she even saw a flower hoe leaning on the wall.

Look down at these spirit grasses again...... Suddenly, Yan Xuan raised her head and looked at the stone wall full of pothos again, in a piece of oily greenery, she saw the flower hoe leaning on there again, just like a lightning dispel the fog in Yan Xuan's heart, but it brought her greater questions, she lowered her head again, quickly opened the wooden box on the case one by one, took out the spirit grass inside and put it in front of her face to inspect it carefully, and even put it on the tip of her nose to sniff lightly, everyone guessed that Yan Xuan probably found the "difference" that Qian Chao said, But he didn't expect Yan Xuan's reaction to be so big, only Qian Chao's smile on his face became stronger and thicker.

In the end, Yan Xuan raised his head and asked Qian Chao with a different color on his face: "Why don't these spirit grasses have a trace of rusticness?" ”

Qian Chao laughed and replied, "Sister Yan can see it!" ”

Yan Xuan muttered, "Incredible! ”

"Sister Yan, what do you see, what is not rustic?" Tang Ping on the side asked.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Yan Xuan sorted out his thoughts for a moment, and then casually pointed to the flowers and plants planted in the Qianchao Courtyard and said:

"Oh, look at those flowers and plants, the spiritual grass used in the alchemy of Qixia Mountain is actually no different from those flowers and plants, whether the spiritual grass grows at the bottom of the stream or the top of the deep cave cliff, in short, it must grow in the soil, and then absorb the spiritual energy, the essence of the day, and the moon can only be used for alchemy after years of years, the first step after we pick the spiritual grass in Qixia Mountain is to clean up the spiritual grass, we call it grass washing, that is, to remove the floating dust on the leaves of the spiritual grass and the soil on the grass roots, because most of the spiritual grass can be used for alchemy, When I first entered Qixia Mountain, I learned this grass washing with my brothers and sisters in the same door, and stayed in the Huancao Courtyard for more than half a year, and every day was to clean the spiritual grass that was sent, and the grass washing was naturally particular about washing the spiritual grass, leaving no trace of soil on it, but after all, the roots of this spiritual grass were in the soil for more than ten or twenty years or even longer, no matter how to wash, there would be some rustic left, just like pulling out a flower and grass here to wash the grass roots with water, and then smelling the grass roots must still be able to smell some earthy smell. The rustic spirit grass is difficult or almost impossible to completely remove, but the spirit grass that Brother Qian took out is not the slightest bit rustic, which is the most strange thing to me. ”

Hearing Yan Xuan say this, Tang Ping, Li Jian and Lu Pingchuan each took out a spirit grass from the wooden box, brought it to their eyes, looked at it carefully, and leaned their noses over from time to time to sniff it carefully.

"What if you don't have a rustic atmosphere?" Lu Pingchuan was still ignorant about this, and couldn't help but ask.

"Then can you still enter medicine and alchemy without rustic qi?" Li Jian asked without waiting for Yan Xuan to answer.

"Natural energy, and it is the best choice for alchemy." Yan Xuan replied, "I'm just curious, Brother Qian, where did you buy these spirit grasses, but I really want to learn the hand washing skills of the person who sold you the spirit grass." ”

Qian Chao had a smile on his face, he didn't answer, but casually took out a spirit grass from a wooden box on the case and asked Yan Xuan: "Sister Yan just said that this spirit grass has been in fire for how many years?" ”

Yan Xuan looked at it, but it was the first Tian Xinlan to show himself, and just now he checked the spirit grass on the case and turned the bottom of this plant to the top.

"This is fifteen-year-old Tian Xinlan." Yan Xuan replied puzzled.

"Fifteen years, older than my age," Qian Chao looked at the spirit grass in his hand, "Among the five of us, only Sister Yan is a cultivator of alchemy in Qixia Mountain, and it is these spirit herbs and elixirs that she has been looking at all day long, she will definitely not be mistaken." ”

Saying this, Qian Chao raised his head and looked at the other four with a solemn and firm look, and then asked:

"I heard that the heat of the spirit grass is not necessarily the year it grows, Sister Yan, how long will the fifteen-year fire Tian Xinlan grow in your Spirit Grass Garden in Qixia Mountain?"

"At least seven years or so." Yan Xuan replied.

"What if I say that the fifteen-year-old Tian Xinlan in my hand has only taken less than ten days from germination to growth?"

"Impossible!" Yan Xuan must not believe it when he heard this.

Li Jian and Lu Pingchuan looked at Qian Chao, their faces were full of disbelief, but they didn't speak.

"You're talking nonsense, aren't you?" Tang Ping asked rhetorically.

The solemn look gradually faded on Qian Chao's face, and the smile that was familiar to everyone on weekdays reappeared on his face, still pinching the Tian Xinlan, he arched his hand to the four and said:

"As soon as the Tang girl came, she asked, I definitely didn't invite everyone here for my new home, it's true, there are two important things to say to you today."

Saying that, Qian Chao raised Tian Xinlan in his hand:

"That's the first thing."
