Chapter 32 Apprenticeship in the Southern Suburbs
Behind the bead curtain is a young man, with a white jade purple and gold crown on his head, wearing a black silk brocade robe, a jade and gold silk belt around his waist, and black shoes with a Jiao pattern on his feet, his face is thin, but his eyes are bright, this person is Lin Changyu, the prince of Dayan.
At this moment, he was staring at the rice paper in front of him with a playful face, with a slight smile on his face.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, I see that this person is quite ignorant, why don't you give him some color to see?"
The eunuch who spoke was just getting back Li Wuchen's Mo Baolai, and at this moment he was smiling at Lin Changyu flatteringly.
"That's an interesting person. ”
Lin Changyu smiled at the corner of his mouth, but he ignored the eunuch, and after tasting it carefully for a while, he handed the calligraphy to him beside him, and said, "It is indeed a rare treasure, Erfu, you take it back, frame it, and hang it in my study." ”
After listening to Lin Changyu's words, Erfu didn't dare to make another time, naturally knowing that the prince had rejected his proposal, and after receiving the order, he took the rice paper with both hands and was about to bow down and retreat, when he heard Lin Changyu add again, "Tomorrow, please invite Mr. Li to sit in Deyun Building, this palace wants to talk to him." ”
After listening to Erfu, he also understood that Lin Changyu had the heart to recruit Li Wuchen, after all, the second prince Lin Changkong had been fighting with the generals of Southern Xinjiang and Beirong recently, and he faintly had the intention of becoming the leader of Wuzong, which also had a lot of pressure on him.
After all, no matter what you say, a prince who doesn't want to be an emperor is not a good prince, let alone such a motivated prince.
This night, Li Wuchen slept very unsteadily, after coming out of the Feifeng Pavilion, his whole person was shrouded in a layer of mist, and the character who could get close to him silently and hand the small seal to him could definitely kill him silently.
In the early morning of the second day, he got up much earlier than usual, and in the face of unknown pressure, he had to work hard to improve his cultivation, even if he could only reach half of his senior sister's level, he could easily cope with the next means.
"Young master, the prince sent someone to send an invitation. ”
After putting down the meal, Xing Jia handed Li Wuchen an invitation card with both hands.
This was not unexpected by Li Wuchen, but he thought that this post would be delivered in a few days, but he didn't expect the other party to be so uncomposed.
"It seems that the position of this prince is not so secure. ”
Li Wuchen said with a sneer.
Xing Jia didn't speak, he stood aside respectfully, waiting for Li Wuchen's orders, for him, these are not what he needs to care about, as long as Li Wuchen speaks, even if he is asked to kill the so-called Royal Highness the Crown Prince now.
"Go and tell the comer that I will be over on time today. ”
After saying this, Li Wuchen closed his eyes again, the return to the Pu array of this mansion wasted a lot of effort from the old Taoist priest, and it could even be comparable to the one on Wuwei Mountain.
After finishing the morning class, after a hasty breakfast, Li Wuchen went out, Prince Lin Changkong made an appointment at noon today, so he didn't go to the appointment, he was going to the western suburbs, where there was an old man Qiu's deceased, Old Man Qiu once said that if he arrived in the capital one day, he must visit him.
The western suburbs are mostly farmland, and rows of golden wheat fields are completely divided into heaven and earth, and because it is late autumn, some hard-working tenants can often be seen harvesting wheat in the fields.
The place where Li Wuchen is going is in a remote corner of this western suburbs, a very elegant small garden.
"Dare to ask if Mr. Lin is at home?"
Li Wuchen lightly buttoned the door knocker and shouted softly, there was a faint medicinal fragrance coming out of it, he could smell it, there were immortal treasures.
With a 'squeak', the door was slowly opened open a gap, and a half-sized boy of about 1.5 meters said through the gap, "Who are you, but you came to seek medical treatment?"
Li Wuchen smiled, flipped over with his right hand, took out a letter, made a gesture, and said, "There is no post, there is a letter and ask Mr. Xiao to pass it on." ”
"You're a Taoist?"
The little man took the letter, and his tone was not very good, as if he had a deep opinion of the Taoist priest.
Li Wuchen didn't want to be unhappy with himself, and after nodding slightly, he stopped making a sound.
The little man was bored, so he dropped a "Wait!" and then closed the door and entered the room, apparently looking for the owner.
Fortunately, before he could wait, the courtyard door was wide open, and the little man invited Li Wuchen in.
Looking up, this is the source of the medicinal fragrance, surrounded by rare herbs, and even many Li Wuchen have only seen them in ancient books, which are rare treasures that do not exist in the world.
"Don't mess with the things in the garden, my husband doesn't want anyone to touch her things. ”
The next man glanced at him, as if looking at a thief, and after walking all the way, he said all the way, there are many rules in the garden, which made Li Wuchen break out in a dark cold sweat.
Stepping through the medicine garden, you entered a room that was supposed to be the main hall, but now it has become a pharmacy, with a little green smoke and a strong smell of medicine.
"Sir, the man is coming. ”
The little man bowed respectfully and stood aside.
"Sit down, Ning Yuan will go and make him a cup of tea. ”
In front of her was a woman, dressed in gray linen clothes, stepping on straw sandals, no more than thirty years old, but her voice was a little old, at this moment she was staring at the five piles of herbs in front of her, as if she did not know what to continue to put into the medicine furnace.
The little man turned and left.
"If the seniors are refining the obstacle avoidance pill, maybe try the Heart Cultivation Grass. ”
As soon as Li Wuchen entered the door, he knew what the other party was refining, so he reminded softly.
"You know medicine?"
The woman frowned and glanced at Li Wuchen, but she put the heart-nourishing herb into the medicine furnace, and when the medicine entered the furnace, a smell like sandalwood faintly appeared.
A hint of joy flashed in the corner of the woman's eyes, and she said, "I forgot that you are Qiu Lao Gui's apprentice, this is Qiu Lao Gui's unique secret pill, but you leaked me, aren't you afraid that he will jump on his feet?"
Li Wuchen arched his hand and said, "The seniors have already touched the threshold, all they need is time, and Wuchen is just a little ahead of time." ”
Hearing Li Wuchen's words, the woman was very happy, and hurriedly beckoned him to sit down, and said, "I understand what Old Ghost Qiu means, I should take care of his affairs, what kind of medicine do you want to boil?"
"Doodan!"
Li Wuchen spoke softly.
The woman was stunned for a moment, but she laughed coincidentally, "Who do you want to continue your life? Do you know that the herbs here are hard to find, and most of them are extinct?"
Li Wuchen nodded, and arched his hand, "Most of the second masters have already helped me prepare, but now only one thing is missing, 'Tianxing Grass'." ”
"Star Grass?"
The woman shook her head and said, "The Heavenly Star Grass is hard to find in the world, and the only known one is in the palace, how do you find it?"
Li Wuchen bowed his hand slightly, "Wuchen has his own way, and I will ask Uncle Shi to help me a lot." ”
This woman is Lin Yuhan, the younger sister of Old Man Qiu, they are both medicine and poison, Old Man Qiu inherited poison skills, and she inherited medical skills.
After hearing this, Lin Yuhan looked at Li Wuchen with a lot of amusement, and said with a smile, "Old man Qiu said in his letter that he wanted you to learn the 'Three Needles of Life Extension' with me, are you willing?"
Li Wuchen knew about this matter, if he wanted to save Lin Ruomeng, in addition to crossing Erdan, he also needed this 'three needles of life-sustaining' to stabilize the three souls and fix the seven spirits.
At the moment, he was no longer verbose, got up and knelt on his knees, and said solemnly to Lin Yuhan, "Please also ask Uncle Shi to teach you." ”
Lin Yuhan shook his head and said with a smile, "This is the secret technique of my medical sect, and it will never be passed on easily, even if you are a child of the poison sect." ”
After listening to what Lin Yuhan said, Li Wuchen froze in place, but he was at a loss for a while.
"It's time for you to call Master!"
It was Ning Yuan, the little man who spoke, who was holding a cup of strong tea, belatedly speaking, and said with some hatred.
Li Wuchen suddenly realized, kowtowed three times to Lin Yuhan, and then took the tea in Ning Yuan's hand and handed it to Lin Yuhan respectfully.
Lin Yuhan took a sip and recognized this apprentice.
"I don't have anything to give you, I see a lot of resentment in you, and I will give you a piece of 'Ning Xin Pei'. ”
As soon as she finished speaking, she went to her waist and took out a jade plaque and handed it to Li Wuhou, and continued, "You go first, and come back tomorrow with three poles." ”
