Chapter 13: Mei Feng leaves
Under the leadership of Mei Feng, Luo Xing got to know all the herbs in the academy's medicine storehouse, and also really saw what the medicine library was.
In the huge house with a radius of 100 zhang, there are rows and rows of medicinal herb shelves, and the number of medicinal materials for making ordinary, high-grade, and top-grade pills is amazing, and even the medicinal materials for making superb pills are some, and there are no more, because those medicinal materials are all made of holy and divine pills, and even if there are, no one will place them in such an obvious place.
After the medicinal materials in the medicinal materials warehouse were all recognized, Mei Feng took Luo Xing to some large places where medicinal materials were sold to take a look, but...
Inside the herb shop.
The pharmacy guy said, "Two, what herbs do you want to buy?" ”
Mei Feng said: "Do you have any medicinal materials here to make the Holy Pill?" ”
"Eh, I'm sorry, the small store is narrow, and there are no medicinal materials you said, you see...
"Such a big store, the decoration is quite luxurious, but there are no medicinal materials for making the Holy Pill, forget it, let's go." After speaking, Mei Feng pulled Luo Xing and walked out.
When the guy saw the two of them going out, he pouted with disdain, and whispered to himself: "Dressed like this, you are still delusional about the medicinal materials of the Holy Pill, this is not waking up yet, right?" ”
Inside another lavishly decorated herb shop.
"You two, buy medicinal herbs?"
"Hmm."
"What do you need, even if you ask, except for those top medicinal materials, the rest of the store is not the most complete on the market, but it is not much different."
Mei Feng suddenly became interested, and said: "Is there any medicinal material for making the Holy Pill, nine-color chrysanthemum, nine bamboo shoots... ”
"You want to see it? Want to buy? Still is? The guy smiled suddenly.
"I want to buy it."
"Really?"
"Hmm."
"Are you sure it's not a joke?"
"Of course."
The guy looked at Mei Feng and the others carefully, and saw that it was not a joke, so he said, "Wait a minute, let me know." ”
After a while, a middle-aged man with strong spirits, eyes like Langxing, and a somewhat fat figure walked out, and after some detailed inquiries, he introduced Mei Feng and Luo Xing into the inner room, and took the two medicinal herbs that Mei Feng said about making the Holy Pill in his hands.
The shopkeeper opened the box, stared at Mei Feng and said, "These are the nine-colored chrysanthemums and the nine bamboo shoots, as for the other medicinal materials Your Excellency mentioned, this store really doesn't have them." ”
Mei Feng snorted, pointed to the medicinal herbs in the box and said: "Xing'er, this thing is a nine-color chrysanthemum, the place of growth is unknown, if you want to meet it, you need to see luck, you look at it, there are nine petals, such as a wheel, and it is divided into nine colors... ”
Mei Feng just introduced Luo Xing to the approximate growth age, appearance, and function of this kind of medicinal materials in front of the shopkeeper, while Luo Xing listened and remembered carefully.
"Have you written down both?"
"Well, I made a note of it."
Seeing Luo Xing's note, Mei Feng turned his head to the shopkeeper and said, "Shopkeeper, I'm sorry, I'll talk to the apprentice first, I didn't delay your time." ”
The man smiled, although the two masters and apprentices who came here were not dressed luxuriously, but listening to his words, he knew that this person was indeed well-informed, and he should be a famous person on the mainland, so he didn't think much about it, and said directly: "It's okay." ”
"And what is the price of these two herbs?"
"If you are sincere in your desire to buy it." After speaking, the shopkeeper hesitated for a while, and continued: "In this way, I will make the decision for the family, this nine-color chrysanthemum plus nine bamboo shoots, a total of 150,000 taels of gold will ask you, how about it?" If you put it in the auction house, you should know that there is definitely more than that. ”
After the shopkeeper finished quoting the price, he looked at Mei Feng, who didn't reply, and said, "Of course, if you have something of the same value, you can also change it." ”
After listening to the price quoted by the shopkeeper, Luo Xing's eyes were about to burst out, he didn't expect that in the past, he would still worry about a few taels of silver, and then sigh for a high-grade pill of dozens of taels of silver, but today I listened to the price of these two medicinal materials, but it was already high, not about silver, but about gold, or ten thousand taels, one hundred thousand taels, one hundred thousand taels, it can be imagined, if it is refined into an elixir, what price it must be.
Mei Feng smiled and replied: "Well, the price is fair, it's just that the gold and silver on my body are not enough for the time being, if I save enough in the future, I will definitely come to inquire again, I'm really sorry." As soon as he said that, he was about to pull Luo Xing and walk out.
When the shopkeeper heard Mei Feng's words, he knew that he was bringing his apprentice to learn and understand, and he didn't come to buy it at all, which really made him angry, but he couldn't do anything about it, after all, no one stipulated that he had to buy it if he saw it.
The shopkeeper put away the box, but the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and when he saw the two of them walking out, one dodged to block the way of the two, the cyclone under his feet spun violently, his body slowly floated up, and he said coldly: "Do you know the family behind this store?" If you don't tell me about it, you two of you, you can get in, you can't get out, you can't run away, say who you are. ”
As the shopkeeper spoke, several men also gathered around and glared angrily.
"Don't be angry, I'm Mei Feng, this is my apprentice." Mei Feng smiled and said truthfully.
A medicinal herb shop like this, if it is said that there is no background, then no one will believe it, after all, in this world, without a background, who would dare to open a store like this, so Mei Feng at this moment can only rely on his original reputation to try.
When the man heard this, he was about to say who you were, but he suddenly remembered that there was indeed such a person many years ago, and then asked with a skeptical attitude: "Are you really Mei Feng?" ”
"If it's fake, if you don't believe it, you can go to Dean Chu of Mocheng Academy."
"Okay, if what Your Excellency said is false, then don't blame me for being rude." As he spoke, he asked a guy to write down the appearance of the two of them, and quickly went to Mocheng Academy to confirm the matter.
After a long time, the guy brought a teacher from Mocheng Academy over, and finally confirmed that this person was Mei Feng, and then let the teacher go back.
The shopkeeper said: "It turns out that you are really Mei Feng, forgive me for taking the liberty just now." ”
"It's okay, it's okay, I don't care about your feelings, I apologize to you." As he spoke, Mei Feng clenched his fists.
"You're polite, I heard that you, because of the burning of the exercises... Right now... ”
"Hey, don't mention the past."
"Now that your identity has been confirmed, then I won't say more, and I will be a guest at my Liu family when I have time."
Mei Feng laughed after hearing this: "It turned out to be the Liu family, but Liu Shancun is the head of the old family?" ”
"It's my father, you, know?"
"I had a relationship, I once helped refine the pill, how is the current old master?"
"Oh, I see, thanks to you, my father is well. Man, good tea. ”
"Don't be busy." After Mei Feng finished talking to the guy, he looked at the shopkeeper and said: "I'm really sorry for today's incident, if there is nothing else, my apprentice and I will go first, and come to visit another day, and please bring a good message to the old master for me." ”
"How can a family talk about two families, if you have something to do first, I will definitely bring your words, please."
"Please."
Outside the store, the shopkeeper arched his hand and said: "If necessary, you can come to Liu's house at any time, welcome to the extreme." ”
Mei Feng also hugged his fists and said: "Okay, thank you, farewell." ”
"Farewell."
While speaking, Mei Feng looked at the words "Ximo Medicine Liu" on the plaque again, and then turned around and left with Luo Xing.
Although Mei Feng's demeanor is not there at this time, it is unknown whether he will rise again in the future, one more friend, one more road, after all, the former prestige is still there, and he has also refined medicine for his father, this is what the shopkeeper thinks at this time.
Later, when the shopkeeper asked his father again, he realized that Mei Feng's words were indeed true.
Mei Feng and Luo Xing went out of the door and turned into the alley, both wiping a handful of sweat, Mei Feng smiled and said, "How is it, is it exciting?" If I didn't know my reputation and have some relationship with his family, we wouldn't have been able to get out. After saying that, he laughed.
"Master, it seems that your prestige back then was really not small, and you admired it, and this time you can see it."
"That's, I want to be your master and me back then... Ay? Why is your kid's mouth getting better and better at talking? As he spoke, Mei Feng patted Luo Xing lightly on the back of his head.
Luo Xing shrunk his neck and smiled: "I learned it all from my master." ”
"Hahahaha, okay, let's go, move on to the next one."
In this way, for a long time, Mei Feng took Luo Xing to the medicinal herb store and some shops selling pills every day to teach Luo Xing to recognize the herbs and the appearance effect of the pills.
And Luo Xing didn't care where Mei Feng took him, he just concentrated on watching and studying, and he still felt embarrassed when he encountered the shopkeeper's bad attitude, and was blasted out. But Mei Feng told him that no matter what, as long as he learned something, it was good. Luo Xing was silent after hearing this, thinking that it was really reasonable.
It was during this period of time that Luo Xing really understood the grades of the various pills on the continent and the appearance and effect of the finished products.
The grades of the elixirs on the continent are, ordinary, high-grade, superb, superb, holy, and god-like. Ordinary and high-grade elixirs are formed into brown, superb cyan, superb red, holy purple, and the divine product is not clear.
When Mei Feng was at the highest level, he could refine the Holy Grade Pill, but the quality was average, but refining the Saint Pill once not only took a long time, but also consumed a lot of power, especially the spirit, which took several days to recover. For the Divine Pill, in the past 10,000 years, I have never heard of anyone who can refine it.
After each elixir is refined, there may be three grades, inferior: simple molding, some sticky, dull, and average effect. Medium: The appearance of the pill is rough, slightly shiny, and the effect is medium. Superior: smooth and round, bright color, fragrant, and the best medicinal effect.
For the doctor's art and alchemy, it is divided into internal and external use, distinguishing special circumstances, and can also be made into medicinal powder, liquid medicine and other substances, but some high-grade pills require the alchemist to have extremely high attainments. If the refining fails, it is not only the extremely difficult to find medicinal materials or their value that will be lost, but also the human heart.
On this day, Mei Feng saw that Luo Xing had already mastered the basic knowledge of alchemy, the appearance of medicinal herbs, the medicinal properties, how to identify herbs and the growth years, etc., but after lacking alchemy and medical practice, he decided to start teaching Luo Xing alchemy. From drying and twisting powder, to making a fire, the sequence of putting medicine, controlling the heat, etc., it is explained in simple terms.
According to Mei Feng's teachings, Luo Xing only succeeded in refining ordinary pills twice, and he was even more proficient in fire.
An ordinary healing pill only needs two hemostatic herbs, while the Hui Qi Pill only needs three wheel grasses.
Hemostatic grass resembles a common ground weed, but has spikes on the tips of the leaves, while wheel grass, as the name suggests, has two leaves on both sides of the whole grass stem, and a large leaf resembling a round wheel at the top of the stem.
Mei Feng was very relieved to see the success of Luo Xing's alchemy, and even explained that in the future, if he encounters a stubborn disease that is not easy to cure with pills, and is extremely serious or difficult to treat, only when his own strength is strong, he can refine the pill or treat it, otherwise not only will it not succeed, but there may also be problems, and he told him to practice diligently.
Later, Mei Feng assessed Luo Xing for a long time on the knowledge he taught, and the result made Mei Feng extremely satisfied, and secretly sighed that Luo Xing's talent was really high.
Finally, Mei Feng, who was satisfied, proposed that he was leaving, and once he recovered, he would come back, and asked Luo Xingyu to bear with him in advance, not to act recklessly, to concentrate on cultivation, and only in the academy can there be such a quiet place for cultivation, and everything will be said when it is strong, if it is really not good, go to Dean Chu.
Luo Xing knew that the master kept teaching him day and night, just to leave him when he was almost in control, although he was extremely reluctant in his heart, and asked to go with him again, but he was still rejected by Mei Feng.
After saying goodbye to Mei Feng with tears, Luo Xing started a life of one person again, and he didn't know what his life would be like in the future, and what he didn't know was that Mei Feng's farewell was actually a few years.
On the day Mei Feng left, Luo Xing was lying on the bed alone, staring blankly at the roof, his expression was very low, and he had a lot of thoughts: except for his grandfather, the two people who were good to him both left, and they all had their own things to do, do they always have to leave when they grow up?
After tossing and turning for nearly a night, Luo Xing, who was in a daze, finally fell asleep.
Mei Feng's departure made Luo Xing confused in the next few days, he knew that he used to have someone to accompany him, and someone to take care of everything, explaining the reason, knowledge, and planning to himself little by little.
I once remembered that my grandfather took care of me in every way, Bai Longfei explained the truth of the rivers and lakes to me, my master took careful care of me, imparted knowledge and that expectant look, and everyone's ardent hope for myself, but at this moment I suddenly felt that I really shouldn't waste time like this every day.
Since then, Luo Xing pressed the loneliness and longing for his relatives in his heart, and every day as usual, in addition to practicing exercises, he was practicing alchemy, etc., always keeping himself in a busy state.
Now that the fire technique has been raised to the realm of the second layer, the understanding of fire control and refining medicine has been raised to another level.
