On the hillside.

Chen Sheng and Lu Zhu were half-lying, with a grass blanket under them, very soft, and the white clouds in the sky were also very soft, very soft, covering the dazzling skylight, but not making the light too dim, with just the right amount of softness.

Phew!

A spirit crane flew up, surrounded by clouds and smoke, with a string of crystal berries on its mouth, the size of a thumb, red, like a beautiful jade carving.

After a while, the crane landed, and placed the berries in front of the two masters, and thoughtfully cushioned them with a broad green leaf.

After doing this, it flapped its wings and flew away, playing on its own.

"How nice it would be to be eternal."

Chen Sheng looked at the clouds in the sky, the cranes offering fruits, and the Taoist companions around him, only feeling that the years were quiet, and there were no regrets in life.

"I'm already satisfied."

Green beads smile skillfully, knowing that immortality is unattainable, and seeking peace of mind, for decades, there is no obstacle, it has been God's favorite.

"Thirty years is not enough, I will refine another Turtle and Snake Life Extension Pill, but I think the medicinal effect will be greatly reduced, but it should be able to extend life for ten years, and there is another Shui Yuan Crystal, which can ignore the restrictions of the pill and extend life for another five years......"

Chen Sheng felt that he was the greedy person, but since he had chosen a Taoist companion, he had to prepare and try his best to keep the people around him.

It's just that fighting for one's life to the sky is really an extremely difficult thing.

"Okay, that's enough."

Lu Zhu pinched Chen Sheng's hand, the real thing can be grasped, the obsession is too deep, and the mind will go to an insoluble abyss.

"I don't argue with you about that."

Chen Sheng is not able to listen to persuasion in this regard, he is rare to be arbitrary, and he is bent on means to prolong his life.

In a little silence, the figure of a young man, coming from far and near, his gaze, without focus, wandered out of the world, thinking about something in his mind, muttering in his mouth, caught in the boundary of knowledge, unable to get out.

"There is a problem, pharmacology cannot complete the closed loop."

The young man is an alchemy apprentice in the medicine house, and he has already started to prepare for alchemy, intending to attack the realm of a first-order alchemist.

The pill he chose to refine was not a common Qi Condensing Pill, but a first-order Scorpion Pill.

The pharmacology of the scorpion pill is to attack poison with poison, and to restrain each other, which is troublesome in the first-order pill.

He has good talents, but he is still stuck in his thoughts, and he has been thinking hard about this tea and dinner in recent days.

Neutralization?

Balance?

I haven't been able to find it!

"But something happened."

Suddenly, a warm voice pulled the young man's attention from the spiritual world to the real world.

He looked up, and halfway up the hill, there were two idle figures, like a pair of beautiful people, which made people envious.

The other party's eyes were very warm, falling on him with a hint of concern.

"Old Chen, seniors, juniors didn't mean to disturb, they were caught in a puzzle in their thinking, and they lost their minds for a while, so they would be presumptuous."

The young man recognized Chen Sheng and Lu Zhu, and was surprised and a little apprehensive in his heart, knowing that the two liked peace and did not like to be disturbed.

However, he was too weak and had no eyesight, so he broke into the solitude of the two.

"What's your name?"

Chen Sheng's voice is not high, and it does not give people a sense of oppression.

"Junior, Lu Ming."

The young man didn't dare to relax, he was a little restrained, this was the Optimus Prime of their medicine house, throwing away the identity of the elder of the medicine house, this was also a second-order alchemist, and his ability and ability far surpassed him.

"Don't be nervous, for a genius who is about to step into the ranks of a first-order alchemist, he should be able to stabilize his mentality in an instant."

Chen Sheng saw that Lu Ming's age should not be very old, and there was still a little immaturity on his face, so young, he would be among the ranks of first-order alchemists, and there was still a glimmer of hope for impacting second-order alchemists in the future.

"The senior said it was funny."

Lu Ming didn't dare to admit that there were still a lot of geniuses in the medicine house, but he also knew that this senior was very kind, and he didn't get angry that he broke in, and his heart relaxed a little.

"Are you thinking about Dan Dao? Tell me about it, I should be able to help you a little. ”

Chen Sheng feels that he is a senior, and he was also helped to come over when he was a teenager, and now that he has met a young man who can be cultivated, he will generally not turn a blind eye, and he will never be stingy when he can mention something.

"The elder is naturally qualified to guide me."

Hearing this, the excitement on Lu Ming's face could no longer be hidden.

This is a second-order alchemist, and answering his doubts can be called handy.

He hurriedly explained the technical problems existing in the scorpion pill directly.

"With bellflowers."

Chen Sheng didn't think about it for too long, and after a deep thought, the pharmacological knowledge of the scorpion pill was already clear to him, and he nodded casually.

"Bellflower? This is also a spirit herb that balances pharmacology, but why use it? ”

Lu Ming frowned, unable to understand, but knew that this person was definitely not untargeted.

There must be a reason for saying this, he thinks it's inappropriate, and he can only say that he doesn't have enough understanding.

Fortunately, he is not a mediocre talent, after thinking about it for more than a dozen breaths, he finally has some understanding, but he still can't understand everything, he only knows that the pharmacological logic chain is alive.

That feeling is like a treasure hunter, knowing that there is a treasure in the mountain, and he has found the treasure, but the door is narrow, and he just can't walk in.

This made him extremely anxious.

"The bellflower and the main material of Shedan, the Stygian Grass, are very compatible, and they can take the lead in completing the transformation of advantages, just like in a chaotic army, there is a sudden commander, and as soon as the order is issued, no matter how slow the person is, he can return to order."

Chen Sheng said slowly that not everyone can achieve knowledge learning overnight, so they need the guidance of teachers.

He said the most important part, and the rest, as an alchemy apprentice of the medicine house, should be understandable.

"The younger generation has been taught."

Lu Ming suddenly brightened, there was no doubt, his eyes were shining, and at this point, the knowledge barrier of the Scorpion Pill would not be able to confuse him.

He benefited a lot from this trip, but he didn't dare to delay more, so he had to resign.

"Are you preparing to become a first-order alchemist?"

Suddenly, he heard the warm voice again, and he was a little stunned, but then he reacted and said, "Yes, the younger generation has been preparing for this day for five years. ”

In order to take off the title of "apprentice", he, like many of his colleagues, studied hard and filled in the most precious years of his youth.

"Five years, it's a long time, but it's also very short, I'm not afraid of putting in a lot of effort on the Dan Road, I'm just afraid that I won't do enough."

What Chen Sheng learned was that some first-order alchemists relaxed soon after breaking through, resulting in their skills being unusual.

It is extremely difficult to let out a breath in my heart, and then I want to condense it, and I may not be able to do it for the rest of my life.

"This is teaching me!"

Lu Ming's puzzled eyes became relieved and a little excited, he didn't want the elders of their medicine house to be even gentler than rumored, and he was extremely concerned about the juniors.

He had a feeling of facing his own parents, and he was a little bolder, and said: "Old Chen, I heard that you were limited by your qualifications when you were young, but you never gave up, worked tirelessly, and became a late bloomer?" ”

In the medicine house, there are many rumors about this leader, but for more than two hundred years, the old people who have witnessed it have all died.

There is no proof of death, and this elder's Dan Dao attainments have reached the pinnacle of the borderland.

Such a Dan Dao master, they maintain a skeptical attitude towards his "mediocre qualifications".

"At that time, I devoted myself to hard cultivation, but I was lucky enough to meet a few benevolent elders, and I persevered all the way, and finally achieved something."

Chen Sheng told about the past, his qualifications were not good, and he was allowed to grow like weeds, but his unremitting character was valued by others, and with support, he stopped and walked in the follow-up, and he actually walked to the position of the elder of the medicine house.

So, young man, if your heart is troubled, then persevere.

Go all the way forward, and you will eventually meet the brilliant.

"I will not relax and slack off, and I will go on without fear of wind and rain."

Lu Ming's heart was greatly excited, he made up his faith, and then said goodbye to Chen Sheng.

After returning to the medicine house, he directly opened the furnace for alchemy, and in one go, he really rushed to the realm of a first-order alchemist.

When the Dan was completed, he was angry, so that the alchemy apprentices of the same hall surrounded him.

"Stepping into the first-order alchemist so quickly, have you had an epiphany?"

The crowd was excited, and some of them quietly rushed to the realm of a first-order alchemist, which was too enviable.

A few young people who have a deep friendship with Lu Ming are a little strange, the other party is still unclear today, and he is troubled, how can he succeed in an instant.

This span is amazing.

"It's not an epiphany, but it's better than an epiphany, and I got the guidance of a Dan Dao master."

Lu Ming's face was full of excitement and joy, but thinking of Chen Sheng's admonition, he gradually suppressed it and treated it with a normal heart.

Calming down, he thought of Chen Sheng's various things, and admired him more and more.

This is a senior with high attainments in Dan Dao and modest and peaceful character, who influences later generations with his words and deeds.

"A first-order alchemist can't be called a Dan Dao master, unless it's a second-order alchemist, it can only be Chen Lao."

The alchemy apprentices in the medicine house are full of knowledge, although they are not proud, but they have a rebelliousness and self-confidence in their hearts.

They all firmly believe that they can become first-order alchemists, so they have respect for first-order alchemists, but they really lack a kind of looking up to them.

And the only one who could make them look up to was a second-order alchemist.

Shang Qu is counted as one, but he sits in the camp at Qingping Valley, not in the medicine house, so it can be inferred that in the past, only the leader of their medicine house is left.

That leader, who has the ability to reach the heavens, can guide them through the maze, but he is already in a state of seclusion, except for the chief steward of Youye, the rest of them are not seen.

So, it's impossible!

No way?

They found out, but Lu Ming didn't refute it.

"Is it Old Chen? Old Chen! Damn, you're in luck. ”

All of a sudden, the alchemy apprentices in the entire hall exploded, and Lu Ming was actually lucky to get the guidance of their leader.

That leader, high and dignified, without stain, is admired by all.

Not to mention being instructed by him, even if he has a sentence with the other party, it is a blessing.

"How is Old Chen's personality? Is it as kind as it is rumored? ”

"Are you scheming, how did you meet such a big man."

"The bearing of a second-order alchemist, isn't it more majestic?"

……

Subsequently, the dense inquiries drowned out Lu Ming.

They were too curious, and as the people of Yaolumen in this era, this leader gave them many reasons to imagine.

He is a mysterious man who has lived a long time, and he is also a very capable person who has developed the medicine house to a stage where it is in full swing.

Also, he should be a person with a lot of personality charm and noble qualities, so that there are many old people who are willing to support him on the way to growth.

His qualifications, is it really bad?

Based on the consequential theory, his qualifications should be in the Immortal Sect, and they are not bad.

"Okay, I'll tell you everything about it, don't make any noise."

Lu Ming's head was buzzing, and too many questions were coming to him.

God is pitiful, he doesn't know much, but knowing that the crowd is excited, there is no answer, and it is absolutely impossible to live in peace.

He will tell the reason for meeting Chen Sheng, as well as the answer in it, completely and completely, without missing anything at all.

Still, he was entangled, going back and forth a dozen or twenty times.

If it weren't for the fact that later, when his voice was hoarse and the audience could recite it, he would have had to continue.

"Chen Lao's qualifications are indeed mediocre, but he is indeed an admirable elder, and there is a warm feeling by his side, which may be related to his old man's experience of meeting help on the way to growth."

Through the answers, these alchemy apprentices have already sketched a majestic figure in their minds.

And then......

They are eager to have an encounter with such an elder.

"Why are there so many juniors who have fallen into the obstacle in the past two days?"

On the hillside, Chen Sheng saw another "lamb" in the distance, and he was not in a good mood.

He didn't know what's wrong, as if this realm had the ability to disturb the minds of living beings, these teenagers who walked by either fell flat and needed treatment, or their eyes were dull and they bumped into their heads.

There are also others, simply reproducing Lu Ming's experience, thinking confused, and then being surprised, talking to solve it, and then happily returning.

"Old Chen? Are you Chen? ”

As soon as the thought turned, the young man in the distance had already come closer, his body was a little fat, I don't know because there was more flesh on both sides of his cheeks, and it was more difficult to control, at this time his confused color looked a little clumsy.

"The acting skills are so exaggerated."

Chen Sheng was a little crying and laughing, probably knowing the truth of the matter, and said, "Little guy, are you guys teaming up to brush up on proficiency." ”

He doesn't have irritability, these are all his juniors in the medicine house, his juniors, as an elder, he is very tolerant.

It's just that this kind of unexpected encounter should happen less often.

He was a little uncomfortable.

"That...... Do you know that? ”

The little fat man was about to cry, the script was not written like this, was he too stupid, or his companions turned against the water and deceived him.

Wait a minute, what should the elder do when he gets angry?

"Don't worry, you know, I'm a benevolent elder."

Chen Sheng's voice was very gentle, with a little ridiculous flavor, soothing the little fat man's psychology.

"The younger generation has no doubts about pharmacology, I just want to talk to your old man."

After the little fat man panicked for a while, he realized that Chen Sheng was indeed a benevolent elder, and his heart suddenly relaxed.

He didn't accumulate enough, and he couldn't impact the realm of a first-order alchemist, and he argued with his fellow Daoists in the Dao Hall on weekdays, and the more he argued, the clearer he became, and there was no confusion.

The purpose of his visit was simple, to meet the rumored leader, and although he didn't seem to get anything, it was very memorable.

"Now you see, I'm just an ordinary person. It is inconspicuous among you. ”

Chen Sheng understood the young man's thoughts, and if someone told him that there was a sage and monument in front of him, he would also go and see it.

If the legendary sage is still alive, then he has to go.

"Old Chen, you have returned to the basics."

The little fat man nodded and shook his head.

Words may not be spoken, but feelings cannot deceive people.

This leader has a very comfortable aura, mellow and natural, kind and gentle.

In short, it's almost as he imagined, a person with a charismatic personality.

The trip was well served.

After Chen Sheng satisfied the little fat man's wish, he asked the other party not to come over in a team, he looked the same as everyone, nothing surprising.

Also, it's useless to come, he's not here anymore.
