The three-flavor herbs of Ningshen Flower, Phoenix Bath Fruit, and Agave Herb were not the targets that Xiao An wanted to buy, and the reason why he bought them at a large price in the end was because he wanted to give them to Du Zhiyun as a gift.

The meridians where Lei Zhu had been stored were seriously damaged, and in order to heal his injuries, he could only take the pills refined from fifty years of medicinal herbs. However, this level of elixir was only sold to the outside world by Caixia Mountain within the range of the five factions, but Caixia Mountain was extremely far away from the Cangyue faction.

If you look at the position occupied by the five factions from a very high vantage point, you will find that they are distributed in an irregular circle, and the five factions are connected by only one official road. From the Cangyue faction, you can go north along the official road and pass through the Xuanjian Sect to Caixia Mountain, or you can go south from the Cangyue faction along the official road and pass through the Wuji Sect and the Treasure Array Gate to reach Caixia Mountain.

The powerful Xuanjian Sect occupies far more territory than other sects, resulting in Xiao An, but no matter which direction he goes to Caixia Mountain, the distance traveled is the same.

Before Xiao An set off, Du Zhiyun prepared a list of pills that Xiao An needed to buy, and attached the pills for each flavor of pills.

At Du Zhiyun's suggestion, Xiao An decided to buy medicinal herbs on the way to Caixia Mountain. After arriving at Caixia Mountain, Xiao An only needed to buy the missing pills. After returning to Qishifang City, these herbs purchased by Xiao An will be handed over to Du Zhiyun to open the furnace for alchemy.

Before setting off, Du Zhiyun deliberately took out a batch of spirit stones and entrusted himself to buy more herbs on the Danfang. Du Zhiyun told Xiao An very neatly that his alchemy was in a bottleneck period, and if he refined dozens of more furnaces of pills, it would be possible to break through. That's why he agreed to help Xiao An refine the pill for free, and gave out the spirit stone, in order to let Xiao An buy more herbs.

Although this is a matter of taking what they need and everyone is happy, Xiao An feels that he can only express it, but Xiao An has not thought about how to thank the other party. Today, the young stall owner reminded himself of a sentence that it was because of this sentence that he decided to buy these three herbs.

When Du Zhiyun was sorting out the Dan recipes for himself, Xiao An saw a few Dan prescriptions on Du Zhiyun's table, among which there happened to be "Seven Treasures Guiyuan Dan". At that time, Du Zhiyun explained with a smile: These pills are all being figured out, and he plans to use them to verify the level of alchemy after breaking through the bottleneck.

When Xiao An opened the jade box containing the Ning Shen Flower, the first thing that came out of the jade box was not the breath of medicinal herbs, but a faint demonic aura. When Xiao An felt it carefully, this demonic aura had already dissipated in the room.

Xiao An took the Ning Shen Flower in his hand and carefully examined it, at this time, a trace of demonic energy lingered on the surface of the herb, where was there still the aura of the inspection during the day.

After confirming the Ning Shen Flower, Xiao An took the phoenix bath fruit and agave in his hand and carefully checked it.

These three are all companion demon grasses, and they have been deceived!

But Xiao An was also sure that these three herbs were the ones he checked before buying the herbs during the day, and they were not transferred by the other party. It's just that I don't know what tricks the other party used to hide the demonic energy in the demon grass and hide it from himself.

Damn thief, he pit himself with seventy spirit stones, Xiao An touched his nose depressedly. I was very cautious, but I was still put on a table, but fortunately, the quantity was small, and if I bought more, I even lost the old bottom.

This is the first time Xiao An bought a herb he didn't understand, and he was deceived, is this because he is too guilty, or is there too many scammers?

was especially deceived by a teenager who was much younger than himself, which made Xiao An feel that his old face was a little unbearable.

However, fortunately, the other party only covered up the demonic energy contained in the herb and disguised it as the herb of the elixir garden, but the year of the herb was not faked, so his loss was much smaller.

If it is the kind of deception method that can disguise low-aged herbs as high-aged herbs, but the actual medicinal effect is zero, then I really want to cry without tears.

Before he set off, Du Zhiyun had told himself that some monks would use specific techniques to temporarily suppress the demonic qi in the demon herb to the depths of the herb, and pass it off as the herbs picked from the elixir garden to sell them for a high price. This kind of technique is difficult for ordinary monks to detect, and only some senior alchemists can distinguish it, Xiao An didn't realize that he was on the Tao so quickly.

Xiao An carefully recalled the process of trading with the teenager, and finally affirmed that the teenager must be a habitual offender, and the other party is not only good at observing words and feelings, but also has been inducing himself in the process of cheating, and he has been led by the other party's nose, but he has not found anything abnormal.

In the first transaction, the other party gained his trust with the herbs he picked from the elixir garden, and after a brief encounter, he judged that he knew very little about the herbs, and even speculated that he only knew a little about the herbs to be purchased.

Later, during the conversation, the boy came up with the name of the herb he was looking for, so he took out three kinds of companion demon grass that he was not familiar with and hid the demonic aura through special techniques.

Although Xiao An's intuition believed that this guess was correct, there was one problem that could not be explained, that is, if the other party did this, there must be a large number of demon grass from the previous year.

You must know that the demon grass from the previous year is also worth a lot of spirit stones, if the other party really has a large amount of demon grass in his hand, he can get a large number of spirit stones by selling it directly, and there is no need to collect money by deception.

Although Xiao An accepted three Companion Demon Grass at a high price, he was not depressed, because the Companion Demon Grass could still be used for alchemy after processing.

Xiao An remembered the mural he had watched, which contained information about alchemy, and combined with what Du Zhiyun said, Xiao An also had a certain understanding of the development of alchemy.

Alchemy is inspired by the ancestors of the human race to devour plants and trees to cure diseases, and on this basis, after tasting thousands of plants and trees, they have a recipe for decoction. Later, it developed into the use of a pill furnace for alchemy, but due to the insufficient level of alchemy, the pills often contained erysipelas, and it took several months or even longer for monks to eliminate erysipelas from the body for each pill they took.

It took hundreds of thousands of years for people to solve the problem of erysipelas, but the difficulty of alchemy has also increased by several levels.

Fortunately, at this time, there were plenty of medicinal herbs in heaven and earth, and with the supply of massive medicinal herbs, various new pills emerged one after another, and the strength of the Terran monks ushered in explosive growth, thus occupying a pivotal position in the forest of all races.

Later, the catastrophe that almost destroyed the entire heaven and earth also destroyed the infinite medicinal herbs, and after this heaven and earth recovered slightly, the medicinal herbs also decreased greatly, and the companion demon grass that the alchemists did not look down on before became a treasure.

......

The so-called demon grass does not refer to some special varieties of medicinal herbs, but is a general term for the medicinal herbs that grow in the nests of demon beasts. The Demon Companion Grass was not born to grow in the nest of demon beasts, but was transplanted by demon beasts.

I have to admit that every living creature has an impressive side of the human race, take the demon beast as an example, although its intelligence level is far lower than that of humans, it can realize that the spirit grass can promote the speed of absorbing spiritual power. And the demon beast has a very high talent in transplanting spirit grass, and the survival rate of the transplanted herbs is extremely high, far better than the spirit planter in the foundation building period of the human race.

The Elixir Garden is a medicinal garden specially opened by the monks for the cultivation of medicinal herbs in the place where the spiritual energy is strong, and the medicinal herbs here are not all planted from the seeds of medicinal herbs, and a considerable part of them are transplanted from the seedlings of medicinal herbs collected by the monks in the wild. There is also a very small part of the purchased demon grass, which is used only after several years of cultivation, and after the demon qi in it is completely lost.

However, the survival rate of the paraglyptus transplant is extremely low, and few people do it unless it is used for an important purpose.

A monk once made statistics: Fifty percent of the herbs needed for the Terran alchemy are treated demon herbs, thirty percent are from the elixir garden of the Terran monks, and two percent are herbs grown in the wild in places with rich spiritual energy.

And when alchemy, the herb must not contain a trace of demonic energy, even a trace of it will cause the phenomenon of the fryer to appear during alchemy.

Therefore, it is necessary to get rid of the demon qi in it before alchemy, but it is extremely difficult to get rid of the demon qi. When dispelling demonic energy, it often causes the medicinal effect in the herb to also lose with demonic energy.

Therefore, the price of the demon herb is much lower than that of the herb from the elixir garden.

These herbs in his hands that are more than fifty years old can only be used as medicinal herbs for more than thirty years after removing the demonic qi.

In this way, he is equivalent to spending seventy-five spirit stones to buy a medicinal herb worth about thirty spirit stones, and being blackmailed with thirty-five spirit stones, he is really wronged.

Xiao An thought about it for a while, the problem should be in the jade box containing the herbs, at that time he thought that the young man could not afford to buy a good jade box because of the embarrassment of his family, so he used the tattered jade box, but he didn't expect to fall into the other party's routine.

After a long while, Xiao An let out a sigh of relief and spit out the depression in his heart.

After calming down, Xiao An checked the herbal classics and began to check the three demon herbs in his hand, he had already been deceived, and he couldn't let go of these herbs, so he had to study them carefully.

After studying the three demon grasses, Xiao An took out another prescription, and looked for relevant information in the herbal classics according to the names of the medicines on it, and when it was confirmed, the sky outside the house was already slightly bright, and Xiao An did not rest at all this night.

With the improvement of the cultivation level, the spirit of the monk will become more and more sufficient, and in terms of Xiao An's current cultivation, even if he does not sleep for two or three days, he will not feel any discomfort at all. The improvement of cultivation will also make the monk's mind clearer and clearer, and Xiao An's memory is now far beyond that of ordinary people, almost to the point of unforgettable.

But there is so much information in the prescription that I can only write down two or three copies of the information in the prescription every night. At this time, Xiao An admired those alchemists a little, you must know that identifying the medicinal properties of herbs is only the first step in alchemy, it is the content that alchemy boys should master, and there is also the content of herb processing and refining pills that are many times more difficult.

Just when Xiao An began to clean up the herbs and prescriptions on the desk, he accidentally touched a medicinal herb book, and when this herb book fell on the ground, a neatly folded paper fell out of the herb book, Xiao An curiously picked up the fallen paper and took it in his hand to look at it.
