Chapter 35: Disappointment

On this day, Ye Shusheng came to the Dingli Hall of the Luoxia Sect, which is a place where the alchemy refiners are stored, there are a large number of pill formulas, and they are already Dan furnaces and other things. However, you need certain qualifications to enter.

Ye Shusheng told the thin old man a few days ago about how he wanted to refine the pill, but he didn't expect the thin old man to recommend this place to him directly.

After some tedious formalities, he finally stepped on a small teleportation array, and suddenly felt that the world was spinning, and the surrounding scenery was blurred. Then there was a flash of light in front of him, and he came to a strange hall, and at his feet stood a magic circle exactly like the one just now.

Ye Shusheng was slightly frightened, and sighed at the Luoxia Sect's generosity. He stepped out of the teleportation array and looked around the surprisingly large hall.

Here is a cylindrical oversized room, the diameter of the left and right is about 40 zhang, the height is also more than 10 zhang, the surrounding blue stone wall is inlaid with light red crystal, and there is a thin layer of white sand on the ground, so that the whole hall looks quite clean and tidy.

Around the hall, there are two passages evenly distributed, and on the sides of the two passages are engraved with the character "instrument" and the character "Dan" in ancient characters.

At this time, the hall was empty, and after Ye Shusheng glanced at it, he walked towards the passage engraved with the word Dan.

This passage is not long, and after walking more than ten feet, I turned a corner, and I came to a slightly larger house. There was a long table in this room, and there was an old man with a red face standing at the table, looking at Ye Shusheng with a smile.

Behind the table, there were several dilapidated shelves standing against the wall, full of all kinds of furnaces, raw materials, and some miscellaneous strange items that Ye Shusheng had never heard of.

Before Ye Shusheng could speak, the old man opened his mouth first: "This little friend, look at your face, it's the first time you've come here! Now in this ghost place, there are fewer and fewer newcomers coming!" The old man shook his head and said.

Ye Shusheng couldn't see the depth of the other party, which showed that the old man was a master of the foundation building period, so he hurriedly saluted: "The younger generation has seen the uncle, and the nephew is indeed the first time to come to the hall, and I ask the uncle for some advice!" Ye Shusheng put his posture very low.

"If there's anything you don't understand here, just ask. You can call me Xu Lao, you don't need to be a long teacher and a short teacher, the old man doesn't like to listen to this!" The old man hurriedly corrected Ye Shusheng's title for himself, and seemed to care about it very much.

"That'...... , the juniors obey the order!" Ye Shusheng heard this, hesitated for a moment, and then agreed.

"That's right, now let's talk about the purpose of this. Xu Lao said with satisfaction.

"The younger generation wants to find some formulas and books related to the elixir, and wants to study the way of alchemy. Ye Shusheng tried his best to make his words appear tactful and roundabout, not wanting to attract this person's attention.

"The recipe and book of alchemy, just go up this staircase!" To Ye Shusheng's surprise, the old man didn't have any intention of asking him, and after he casually took out a black token and issued a Dao Law Decision, a stone staircase leading to the roof appeared out of thin air in the open space behind him and between the shelves.

Ye Shusheng was overjoyed, and hurriedly walked to the vicinity of the stairs, and was about to move, but at this time, the old man suddenly showed a cunning expression.

"Looking at the collection of books on the second floor, you will be charged a low-grade spirit stone for an hour, and you are not allowed to take the original out of here, and if you want to copy the content, you will need to pay another copy fee of ten spirit stones per copy. ”

Before Ye Shusheng stepped on the stairs, the old man said the relevant regulations unhurriedly, which made Ye Shusheng's figure stagnate, this fee is too high! Not to mention the cost of copying ten low-level spirit stones, it is the browsing cost of one spirit stone in an hour, and it will also make many shy disciples in their pockets stop.

You must know that a low-level disciple can only earn twenty or thirty spirit stones through various jobs in a year! Counting the daily consumption and expenses of various cultivation, the spirit stones that can actually be saved are only a few pieces.

So this kind of charge from the other party is definitely black-hearted! Ye Shusheng sighed in his heart, he is really a big profiteer!

Although there was a strange look on Ye Shusheng's face, he didn't stop, but threw it back without looking back, and threw a low-level spirit stone into the old man's hand, and he quickly climbed to the second floor.

"It's funny! I wasn't intimidated by such a charge, it seems that I am still a small rich man. Hehe, it looks like another small fortune can be made!" Seeing Ye Shusheng going upstairs so boldly, Xu Lao's eyes couldn't help but narrow into a crescent moon with joy.

Ye Shusheng suppressed the depression in his heart and calmed down a little before he carefully looked at the things on the second floor. This place is completely different from what he imagined, although the space here is not small, but there are really few things placed here.

A few bookshelves, a table, that's all there is to this house. There were still twenty or thirty yellowed old books on the shelf, and on the table were bundles of bamboo slips, and a jade tube whose original color was no longer visible.

"So shabby? Ye Shusheng was hit hard by the scene in the house. After taking a deep breath, Ye Shusheng forced himself to walk calmly to a bookshelf, and then took out an old book at random and looked through it carefully.

But when he finished reading all the books here, his face was extremely bad. None of these dozens of books are books of alchemy, either secret techniques for curing diseases and saving people, or home remedies for strange and miscellaneous diseases. The most bizarre thing is that there is also a self-described poison scripture by a master of poisoning, all of which are books used in the secular world.

"The hour has come, and if you look at it again, you will have to add another spirit stone!" Suddenly, that old Xu shouted downstairs.

When Ye Shusheng heard this, he couldn't help but be a little speechless, but when he looked at the items on the table, he still took out another spirit stone from his body and went down from the staircase.

"The spirit stone has been received, Xiaoyou continue to watch, the old man will not bother!" Xu Lao downstairs said with a smile.

Ye Shusheng didn't pay attention to Xu Lao anymore, his action of looking at the bamboo slips on the table this time was obviously much faster than just now, he only read the general content, and no longer read it sentence by sentence in detail.

Under the soft white light of the moonstone on the roof, Ye Shusheng's expression changed with the flipping of several bundles of bamboo slips. After turning over all the bamboo slips, Ye Shusheng put these bamboo slips back in their place and sighed lightly.

What is recorded on these bamboo slips is really the recipe of several pills and some dispensing experience. But it's a pity that judging from the ingredients of these pills, it has no effect on him and Luo Tianhan.

Ye Shusheng looked at the jade cylinder at the end, hoping that the things recorded in it would not let him return empty-handed.
