The first rays of sunlight in the morning shone through the window lattice of a large hall at the northern foot of Jinlong Mountain, shining on the body of a young man in the main hall.

The young man was about sixteen or seventeen years old, with clear eyebrows and a thin figure, wearing a slightly old cyan shirt, and on the left side of the shirt, there was a lifelike golden dragon embroidered on the left side of the shirt, and under the golden dragon, an elixir was embroidered.

The golden dragon pattern represents that the boy is a disciple of the Golden Dragon Pavilion, and the elixir pattern indicates that he is a medicine boy.

Around the main hall, hundreds of elixirs are stacked by classification, and in the middle of the position, there is a half-human-high Dan furnace, the fire under the Dan furnace is vigorous, and bursts of medicinal incense overflow from the furnace, lingering in the main hall.

Obviously, this hall is a Dan room, and some kind of elixir is being refined in the Dan furnace at this moment.

At this time, it was the most critical juncture of alchemy, the size of the fire needed to be strictly controlled, even if there was a little difference, the whole furnace spirit pill might be destroyed, but the medicine boy on duty in front of the Dan furnace was sitting cross-legged on the futon next to the Dan furnace, his head was lowered, his eyes were closed, and his nose was snoring, and he actually fell asleep like this.

Can't blame this medicine boy for being lazy and slack, in order to refine this furnace elixir, he has not closed his eyes for a day and a night, he is really sleepy to the extreme, the medicine master he served just now has an urgent matter to leave temporarily, his tense spirit suddenly relaxed, he wanted to take the opportunity to take a nap, who would have thought that he fell asleep.

After a while, there was a "zizi" sound in the Dan furnace, and then a puff of green smoke came out, and along with the green smoke, there was a burnt and pungent smell.

At this moment, a figure flickered in front of the main hall, and an old man in a green shirt who was over sixty years old and had a half-white beard walked in quickly.

The heart of the old man's shirt was embroidered with a golden dragon and an elixir pattern, which indicated that he was a pharmacist in the Golden Dragon Pavilion.

In the Xianyuan Continent, there are many martial artists, but pharmacists are extremely scarce, among the 10,000 martial artists, it is difficult to have a pharmacist, and the elixir refined by the pharmacist is a must-have for the makers, so no matter where it is, the status of the pharmacist is extremely respected, and many martial artists would rather offend a powerful opponent than make a feud with a pharmacist.

"The smell...... Oh, my elixir!

The old man entered the main hall, saw the curling green smoke coming out of the Dan furnace, smelled the burnt and pungent smell, his face couldn't help but change sharply, he wailed, his body shook, he had reached the front of the Dan furnace, stretched out his hand to lift the lid of the furnace, and saw that the dozens of precious elixirs inside had turned into a mass of shapeless burnt dregs.

"Ye Luo, you little bastard, get out of here!"

Seeing that the medicine boy was still asleep, the old man was so angry that he yelled "Wow", roared, raised his slap, and slapped him on the head.

The old man's name is Zong Tiancai, although he only has the cultivation of the three-star realm, but because of his identity as a pharmacist, his status and treatment in the Golden Dragon Pavilion are comparable to those of the elders in the pavilion, and even the pavilion master of the Golden Dragon Pavilion has a lot of respect for him.

And the sleeping medicine boy, named Ye Luo, was sent to the Golden Dragon Pavilion by the elders of the family a few years ago, and together with young people from all over the world who were interested in martial arts, he participated in the audition of the outer disciples of the Golden Dragon Pavilion.

The Xianyuan Continent is unpredictable, mysterious, the heaven and the earth are full of rich true yuan, the people on the continent from the moment of birth, they are bathed in the true yuan, some of them are very young, the sea of qi under the umbilicus will produce "true yuan seeds", such a person, is considered to be given by the immortals of the upper realm, so it is called "immortal seedlings" by the warriors on the continent, indicating that they can enter the Tao with martial arts, embark on the road of the strong, and even seek the long way of eternal life.

Under normal circumstances, after the "Immortal Miao" cultivates for a period of time in the mystical mysteries, the "True Yuan Seed" in the Qi Sea will evolve into a star and become a Star Realm cultivator, but after a few years, those outer disciples who entered the Golden Dragon Pavilion with Ye Luo have all entered the one-star realm and the two-star realm, and those with better qualifications have even reached the three-star realm and the four-star realm, only Ye Luo, the "True Yuan Seed" in his body has been silent and has no signs of evolution.

When an "immortal seedling" reaches the age of sixteen, if the "True Yuan Seed" in his body has not yet evolved, it means that he has no relationship with martial arts, and Ye Luo happened to have reached this age this year, so he was given up cultivation by the Golden Dragon Pavilion and sent to this Danfang to be a medicine boy.

In the Golden Dragon Pavilion, the identity and treatment of the medicine boy were the same as those miscellaneous disciples, without dignity and freedom, and belonged to the lowest class.

Ye Luo has become the medicine boy of this Danfang for several months, because Zong Tiancai is not smiling, not angry and arrogant, Ye Luo is like a mouse seeing a cat when facing him, trembling, and he doesn't dare to take a breath of air.

A month ago, Ye Luo followed Zong Tiancai to the back mountain to collect medicine, but was accidentally hit on the head by a falling rock and fell unconscious, and lay on the bed for two whole days before waking up. After the injury, Ye Luo, as if he had been evil, often looked up at the sky at a forty-five degree angle in a daze, and a few inexplicable words came out of his mouth from time to time, until the last few days, it was considered normal, but he didn't seem to be as afraid of Zong Tiancai as before.

Zong Tiancai is strict on the surface, but he is actually a cold-hearted person, and he usually treats Ye Luo quite well, especially after Ye Luo's head was smashed and became a little "stupid", he was even more tolerant of Ye Luo, and sometimes Ye Luo made mistakes, and he just lightly reprimanded a few words and let it go.

Just now when he was refining the Dan, Zong Tiancai had something urgent to go out, and before leaving, he told Ye Luo to be optimistic about the Dan furnace, control the heat, and not slack off in the slightest.

"Sect Pharmacist, why did you beat me?" Ye Luo slept soundly, was woken up by Zong Tiancai's slap, stood up with his head covered, looked at Zong Tiancai with sleepy eyes, and asked with a blank expression, it seemed that he had not come back to his senses.

"Why did you beat you?" Zong Tiancai saw Ye Luo's eyes blinking, with an innocent expression, he was almost amused by him, pointed to the discarded pill, and said angrily: "Look at it! Look at it! What's going on with this pill? I asked you to control the heat, how did you do it?"

Ye Luo's gaze slanted, falling on the pile of medicinal residue in the Dan furnace, his expression suddenly froze, knowing that he had made a mistake, scratched his head, and muttered in a low voice: "How can this be? I just took a nap......

Zong Tiancai couldn't wait to slap Ye Luo again, slapped him out of the alchemy room, out of sight and out of mind, stomped his feet and shouted: "You little bastard, you mislead me in a big way! Mislead me in a big way! I'm really angry!"

This furnace of elixir, a few more hours can be refined, Zong Tiancai originally planned to hand over the refined elixir to the pavilion master, he can be idle for a few days, but now it is good, the elixir has been destroyed, and he has worked hard for several days to put it into the water, and he has to start all over again.

"In a few days, it will be the outer disciples' examination meeting, this furnace Juyuan Dan was originally intended as a reward to be distributed to the top ten disciples, but now it is destroyed in your hands, if I can't take out the Juyuan Dan at that time, how can I explain to the pavilion master and those disciples?" Zong Tiancai blew his beard and glared, the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and he glared angrily: "You say, what should I do now?"

Seeing that Zong Tiancai looked angry there, the corners of Ye Luo's mouth twitched, and he sighed: "The matter has come to this, it's useless to be angry, it's useless to be anxious, let's sit down and think of a way together...... Hmm, isn't there a few days left? Let's hurry up and refine it again!"

Zong Tiancai vented a few words, his anger seemed to have disappeared a lot, he rolled his eyes violently when he heard this, and said angrily: "You said it easily! Refining a furnace of elixir is time-consuming and laborious, and besides, refining the elixir of Juyuan Dan is now missing a few ......."

Ye Luo said disapprerovingly: "If it's missing, let's go pick it again, anyway, there are many mountains in the back!"

"Okay, I'll punish you to go to the back mountain to pick a hundred fire lotus, a hundred bixin grass, and a hundred purple jade ginseng......" Zong Tiancai said the names of more than a dozen elixirs in one breath, and finally said: "That's it! Time is pressing, you can pick these elixirs and hand them over to me before sunset tomorrow night!"

Ye Luo was dumbfounded when he heard this, and when Zong Tiancai finished speaking, he said with a bitter face: "No, Sect Medicine Master, isn't this one hundred plants too much? Even if I have all my hands, I won't be able to pick so many elixirs before sunset tomorrow! How about ten of each? Or twenty plants? Alas, you also know that my head was smashed with a stone not long ago, and I still have a big bag, don't believe you touch it? I'm dragging the sick body to work!"

Seeing him bargaining, Zong Tiancai was angry and funny, kicked him in the ass, and said: "Fifty plants of each kind, no less! Get out of here, I'll be angry when I see you now! Remember, if you don't hand over the elixir to me before sunset tomorrow, I won't be able to refine the elixir! If you can't hand over the elixir, the pavilion master and the elders blame me, I'm okay anyway, but you will be unlucky, and you will be expelled from the Golden Dragon Pavilion, that's for sure, and no one will be able to protect you at that time!"

Ye Luo knew that Zong Tiancai's words were not alarmist, if the outer disciples' exams began in a few days, and the Danfang side could not hand over the elixir, the pavilion master would be held accountable, and he would really be expelled home.

When Ye Luo became a disciple of the Golden Dragon Pavilion, he was pinned on high hopes by the entire family, once the people of the family knew that he was demoted to a medicine boy because he could not set foot in the martial arts, and was driven home because he made a big mistake, it is conceivable that at that time, he will be greeted by cold eyes, cold faces and ridicule, and from then on his life will be bleak, and his life may be even more miserable than the current hard little medicine boy.

Thinking of being scolded and reprimanded by the whole family pointing at the bridge of his nose, Ye Luo felt that his scalp was numb, it seemed that he had to cheer up in the past two days and complete the tasks assigned by Zong Tiancai on time, no matter how lazy he was, it would definitely not work.

"Picking hundreds of different elixirs in two days, how many roads, how many mountains to climb, and how much hardship do you have to endure? This is simply destroying the life of a young man in the flower season! It is simply an inhumane ** act! Zong Tiancai, you old man, I wish you a son without asshole!"

Ye Luo secretly sneered in his heart, walked to the corner on the west side of the main hall, grabbed a large medicine basket and carried it behind him, and raised his middle finger at Zong Tiancai's back, and then strode out of the Dan room.

At this time, the rising sun has completely jumped out of the clouds of the eastern sky, spreading ten thousand golden rays on every peak of the Jinlong Mountain Range.

"If it weren't for that car accident, I would have been promoted and raised in another world, become a general manager, become a CEO, marry Bai Fumei, and reach the pinnacle of life, right?

Ye Luo stood on the top of the mountain, reminiscing about his previous life, his face was melancholy, he came back to his senses after a while, rubbed his face vigorously, took a few deep breaths of the incomparably fresh air in this world, and then faced the morning sun, walked down the stone steps step by step.
