Chapter 30: Poisoning by Stealing Books
Gu Xing was surprised because when he got up, the sun was shining on him, which meant that it was undoubtedly morning at that time, but now when he came out of the room, he saw a red glow in the sky, and it was almost dusk.
After being surprised, Gu Xing felt empty in his abdomen, and the feeling of hunger made Gu Xing have no intention of thinking about anything else, and went straight to the kitchen, I have to say that Pharmacist Li's treatment is still excellent, the food in the kitchen is really varied, and the amount is quite a lot, some of it is still warm, Gu Xing didn't choose anything, he ate whatever he caught, and after gobbling up his fill, he burped and breathed a sigh of relief, got up and went to Pharmacist Li's room, after all, it was his own master, and he always had to say hello.
Gu Xing had just arrived at the door, and before he could knock on the door, he heard the voice of Pharmacist Li from inside: "It's Xing'er?!" โ
Gu Xing tidied up his clothes slightly, pushed the door in, and saw that Pharmacist Li was moving back and forth holding a large jar, Gu Xing was puzzled, and he didn't ask, this huge jar was placed on the side of the door by Pharmacist Li, so he clapped his hands and turned to look at Gu Xing: "Xing'er, what's the matter with you?" Seeing that your eyes are red, it seems that you haven't slept well." โ
Gu Xing hurriedly agreed, and he didn't hide it: "Master, the disciple had a headache last night, although he didn't sleep well even though he had been all night and a day. Gu Xing didn't know why he didn't dare to elaborate on his situation, but instead made up a reason according to Pharmacist Li's words.
"Headache?!" Pharmacist Li frowned slightly, reached out and grabbed Gu Xing's wrist, Gu Xing knew that he wanted to check the cause of his headache, and he didn't resist, let him grab it.
Pharmacist Li's hand clasped on the Gu Xing Cun Guan ruler vein, and after a short time, he breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay, you are the soul that has been consumed to cause headaches, it is caused by the soul measurement disk test yesterday, and it will be fine after a few days of rest." Pharmacist Li said, his eyes showed a slight disappointment, originally he suspected that Gu Xing did not use all his strength, but now it seems that this Gu Xing had done his best at that time, and the power of his soul was indeed high, however, if it was one and a half times higher than ordinary people, it still wouldn't work, at least three times higher, however, Pharmacist Li's disappointed look disappeared in a flash, and Gu Xing didn't notice it.
After listening to Pharmacist Li's words, Gu Xing also understood, it turned out that he had consumed too much spiritual power, which was understandable, so he didn't take it to heart, as for Pharmacist Li's call for spiritual power as the power of the divine soul, maybe it was the statement of this world.
Pharmacist Li thought for a moment, got up and went to the cabinet to take out a porcelain bottle, shook it slightly, poured out a white pill, turned around and handed it to Gu Xing: "Xing'er, this is a tranquilizing pill, if you eat it, it will be good for your soul." โ
Hearing this, Gu Xing took the white pill, put it on the tip of his nose and smelled it, but there was no taste, he couldn't help but feel a little strange, as if he saw Gu Xing's appearance, Pharmacist Li smiled: "Xing'er, this tranquilizer pill is not easy to refine, only six have been refined for the teacher, and now there is only this one left, but this pill material is difficult to find, otherwise, you can refine a few more for you, and you can eat this pill before going to bed." โ
As soon as Gu Xing heard that this pill material was rare, he didn't plan to eat this tranquilizing pill, Pharmacist Li saw that Gu Xing's face was tired, his eyes were red, and he shook his head slightly and said, "Xing'er, you go back to sleep first, remember to eat the tranquilizing pill before going to bed, it will be fine tomorrow, go back." "Gu Xing can't wait to get out of here, so he should be in a hurry.
Back in the stone house, Gu Xing took the tranquilizer pill and looked at it for a while, but he didn't see anything, so he had to give up, took out a bottle and put it in his ring.
Seeing that the sky was about to get dark, Gu Xing felt dizzy in his head, and he no longer insisted, and fell asleep, and at Pharmacist Li's place, the old man looked through a book of animal skins in his hand and looked at it carefully, but his eyes passed quickly, as if he had ten lines at a glance, and he turned a page every other time, and quickly finished the book, picked up another one, and continued to repeat this action, muttering in his mouth: "I have read one before, which book has it?"
After a long time, Pharmacist Li breathed a sigh of relief, and a smile appeared on his face: "I finally found it, this is it, I will give Gu Xing a try tomorrow." After a meal, more than a dozen kinds of medicinal materials appeared on the medicine cabinet, and Pharmacist Li wrapped these medicinal materials, opened the door and walked towards the medicine refining stone house behind.
The next day, after Gu Xing got up, he felt a lot clearer, blinked his eyes slightly, and it didn't seem to be as astringent as yesterday, and it was estimated that his eyes were not as red as yesterday, but he didn't see a mirror here, and he couldn't see what he looked like, and his spirit was much better.
Go out and look at the sky, the sun is three poles, the sky is bright, it is a good weather, Gu Xing went to the kitchen to eat first, and was just about to go to Pharmacist Li's room, when he saw a faint smoke wafting above the alchemy stone house behind, Gu Xing thought about it, it was estimated that Pharmacist Li went to alchemy, and there was no need to disturb him, Gu Xing always felt that this Pharmacist Li was a little weird, and he still didn't want to have too deep a relationship with him in his heart, frowned slightly and thought for a while, turned around and walked towards the bamboo house, planning to read the pharmacopoeia here.
A morning has passed, and Pharmacist Li in the alchemy room still has no intention of coming out, but Gu Xing in the bamboo house is standing there stupidly, as if he was stunned by something, his eyes are blank, and he is holding the thick pharmacopoeia in both hands, and he has turned to the last page.
After a long time, an unknown bird in the forest made a beautiful chirping sound, which was particularly clear in this quiet valley, and Gu Xing, who had been in a daze, couldn't help but tremble, and then the godless eyes regained their clarity, looked down at the book in his hand, and suddenly laughed.
It turned out that Gu Xing entered the bamboo house after dinner and prepared to study hard, learn this pharmacopoeia, learn alchemy, and have no worries about livelihood in the future, Gu Xing didn't pay much attention to anything at first, page by page, and then turned faster and faster, it seemed that this book was originally in his mind, and now he just read it again, until Gu Xing finished reading the last page, his eyes were full of incredible, and he thought about it slightly, and the whole pharmacopoeia floated out in his mind, as if he had read it thousands of times, every word, every picture, and every step was extremely clear, and then, Gu Xing was stupid, standing there motionless, shocked by his own abilityใ
After being awakened by a clear birdsong, Gu Xing reacted, thinking that he had the ability to remember for no reason, he couldn't help but raise his head and laugh, which was the first scene.
After laughing for a while, Gu Xing stopped laughing, his eyes flashed, he turned around to look at the alchemy room, the door was still closed, he put down the book in his hand, and walked quickly to Pharmacist Li's room, there, Gu Xing saw that there were more than a dozen books, although it was not like so many books in this bamboo house, but Gu Xing knew that those dozen books might be Pharmacist Li's treasures, it was necessary to take a look, if there was any benefit from it, it was also a chance, and from the pharmacopoeia, Gu Xing also knew one thing at the same time, that is, refining medicine is very time-consuming, unless it is a medicine god level alchemist, otherwise, even if it is an ordinary medicinal material, if you want to refine it into a pill, it will take at least a few hoursใ
Gu Xing planned to calculate the alchemy time of Pharmacist Li, but unfortunately, I don't know when he entered the alchemy room, look at the sky, it was almost noon, he thought that Pharmacist Li had entered the alchemy room in the morning, so he didn't care about anything else, and went straight to Pharmacist Li's room.
It turned out that a few people walked not far away, carrying large and small boxes, and these boxes, Gu Xing had seen them in the kitchen, and knew that they were delivering food.
Gu Xing stood there, and those people also saw it, and they were all stunned, but this was the Medicine Valley, no one dared to ask anything, and continued to walk in the direction of the kitchen.
Seeing this, Gu Xing also followed behind them, although those people were puzzled, no one asked, which made Gu Xing very strange, and when they put down the food box and packed up the original food box and prepared to leave, Gu Xing asked: "You are delivering food?"
One of them, who seemed to be in the lead, said, "Yes." โ
Gu Xing asked again, "How many times do you deliver food every day?"
The man continued, "Once." โ
Looking at the conciseness of his answer, Gu Xing had no intention of continuing to ask, but seeing the doubts in their eyes, Gu Xing also reported to himself: "My name is Gu Xing, and I am a disciple of Pharmacist Li who only accepted it yesterday, please send an extra piece of food in the future." โ
The man nodded, but did not speak, and the others did not say a word, and Gu Xing knew that his words had solved the doubts in their hearts, but there were some doubts in his heart: "Why don't these people say a word? as if they are afraid of something?" However, Gu Xing didn't ask, his eyes watched them leave the valley respectfully, turned around and looked at the food boxes, and then glanced in the direction of the alchemy room, did not stop, and went straight to Pharmacist Li's room, in Gu Xing's heart, this opportunity was rare, and he could peek at his treasures while he was away.
Opening the door of Pharmacist Li's room, Gu Xing went straight to the bookcase, there were only dozens of books in total, less than a hundred, and he couldn't help but hope that there was some meaningful knowledge in it.
The books here are not as thick as the pharmacopoeia I have at hand, but the ones introduced in them are all not in the pharmacopoeia, and they are all precious strange drug usages, origins, effects, refining methods, Dosage, it can be said to be an eye-opener for Gu Xing, there are graphics of medicinal materials in it, not only that, but the most surprising thing for Gu Xing is that there are ten books dedicated to introducing Warcraft, the fur of those Warcraft, blood, bones, muscles and bones, Neidan can be used in medicine, how to use it, very detailed, but the Warcraft introduced in these ten books is not too comprehensive, the only thing is detailed.
There are less than a hundred books, Gu Xing reads them very quickly, and naturally one thing is that he is afraid of Pharmacist Li's sudden return, and the other is his ability to never forget, although he reads quickly, he still remembers all the knowledge in it.
When Gu Xing looked up again, the sky outside was as good as the setting sun, and he breathed a sigh of relief, Gu Xing put the last book away, got up and walked out of the room, and when the door was closed, Gu Xing saw that his hands were black, and he couldn't help but pat them a few times, thinking that the dust that fell on those books was stained on his hands, after all, Pharmacist Li didn't look through those books every day.
Gu Xing's feet moved, and he walked to another place, where there was a small stream, ready to wash the dust on his hands.
The stream is not big, but it is very clear, and when Gu Xing put his hand in the stream and began to wash, he realized that he seemed to have made a mistake, a very big mistake, those hands full of black like dust, in fact, it is not dust, as for what it is, Gu Xing knew it the moment his hand was wet.
"Poisoned?!" Gu Xing was suddenly shocked.
