Chapter 376: The Problem of Pills

Today's Yuqing Sect is no longer the appearance of three or two kittens back then. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

The second-rate sect is not a big existence in the Shenhua Domain realm, but compared to when it was ranked third-rate, the Yuqing Sect is now famous in this northwest region. And this reputation is great, and naturally there are more people who are willing to worship the door wall of Yuqing Sect. Even though the Yuqing Sect then raised the standard for accepting disciples, the number of outer disciples was still growing rapidly.

As far as the development of a sect is concerned, this is of course a good phenomenon, except for the Great Freedom Sect, which sect would think that it has more disciples? Under a certain standard, the greater the number of disciples, the higher the probability of producing talents. To use the simplest analogy, if there is one Jindan Grandmaster out of a hundred disciples, then if there are a thousand disciples, it means that there will probably be ten Jindan Grandmasters.

However, as the number of this disciple increases, there will also be some corresponding problems.

Trivial things such as food, clothing, housing, and transportation are all problems that can be solved with money, and they are not a problem for the sect of cultivation, so there is no need to talk about it. The real problem is still in cultivating disciples, and to put it bluntly, it is the problem of resource allocation.

This so-called resource, one is the "faculty" that the world of science and technology says, one person teaches ten people, and one person teaches a hundred people, the effect will definitely be different. The other is the real material resources, which are indispensable for cultivation.

In today's cultivation environment, when it comes to the most indispensable resource for cultivation, it naturally has to be the pill. Without the elixir, if you only rely on your own ability to absorb the aura of heaven and earth, no matter how good your qualifications are, you will be delayed. For many people with average qualifications, stepping into a realm earlier may mean that the limited future has been extended.

The Yuqing Sect has jumped from a third-rate sect to a second-rate sect, and the number of disciples in the sect has also increased dramatically, and the demand for pills has naturally increased significantly. Although, Ye Zan uses the pharmaceutical methods of the scientific and technological world, and can quickly produce basic pills in large quantities, and the quality is still excellent. However, whether it is alchemy or medicine, if there are not enough herbal materials, then everything is in vain.

Although, Ye Zan also improved the cultivation methods of some herbs, and opened up a large area of medicine garden in the secret realm of that summer. But herbs, after all, are not crops, and it is impossible to harvest them once a year, or even two or three times a year. The result of harvesting in advance is that the medicinal power of the herbs is not enough, so refining the same pill requires the consumption of more herbs, which is simply more than worth the loss.

Those disciples had to consume a large amount of pills every day, and some of the herbs planted by the Yuqing Sect took at least two or three years to use. In this way, the problem also comes, with the current resource allocation method of the Yuqing Sect, it will not be long before there will be no materials for the production of pills.

People are very realistic, don't think that when people join your sect, they must have the great goal of glorifying the sect for you. You must know that the reason why so many disciples with good qualifications joined the Yuqing Sect is that on the one hand, the reputation of the Yuqing Sect is great, but more importantly, the welfare of the Yuqing Sect is good enough.

After all, the Yuqing Sect had only just been promoted to a second-rate sect not long ago, so why didn't people let those old second-rate sects go, and come to you, the sect that only came out of nods? That's because no sect could use the best pills as vitamin tablets for their disciples like them.

If one day this superb elixir is really cut off, or the supply will be drastically reduced. Although it is said that according to the rules of this world, it is almost impossible for those disciples who have already entered the sect to defect and switch to other places, but I am afraid it will be difficult to receive new genius disciples.

As the chief elder of the Alchemy Hall, Liu Qian saw that the consumption rate of the pill was becoming more and more terrifying, and after counting the herbs planted in the medicine field, he knew that according to this consumption rate, it would not be long before he ran out of food, so he hurriedly ran to Ye Zan to find a way.

Ye Zan flipped through the booklet handed by Liu Qian, and quickly saw the problem, closed the booklet and asked: "The supply of pills, it is best not to change them at will, those herbs that are prone to gaps, can you purchase them from other places?"

The current Yuqing Sect, the wallet is still relatively bulging, far from being as shabby as it was at the beginning. What's more, Ye Zan's own net worth is also quite terrifying, so he also has the confidence to say such things: If you lack something, you can spend money to buy it.

It's just that herbs are a strategic resource for any sect. Moreover, many sects are actually barely maintaining a balance, where are more herbs to sell to others.

Liu Qian shook his head and smiled bitterly, and said, "Elder Ye, what we can buy, we have been buying, and what we can't buy, we can't buy it at a higher price!"

Naturally, it was impossible for the Yuqing Sect to plant all the herbs. There are thousands of herbs in the world, even if only one herb is planted, I'm afraid that Yuqing Sect can't find such a big space. What's more, if only one herb is planted, what use is there, even refining a furnace of elixir is not enough. Therefore, the Yuqing Sect has always been planting a part and buying a part, and most of the other sects are the same, but everyone communicates with each other through transactions.

Ye Zan actually knew this, but he just wanted to save some trouble, after all, the problem that could be solved with money now was basically not a problem for him. Unfortunately, this problem is obviously not something that can be solved with money. Even if Ye Zan's side pays a high price, for each sect, cultivating disciples is the most important issue.

Ye Zan shook his head helplessly, put the booklet in his hand on the table next to him, and said, "Okay, I'll think about this matter again." At the very least, adjust the rations, don't do it for the time being, anyway, this herb can last for a while. ”

In fact, at this time, Ye Zan had already thought of a way, that is, the small world of Asgard. In the small world, after arranging Skynet, he already has a pretty detailed grasp of the situation in the small world. Basically, the herbs that the Yuqing Sect lacked now could also be found in the small world.

It's just that this method can only solve the urgent need, and if you really want to completely solve the problem, you still need Ye Zan to find another way. After all, no matter where it is, there is a fixed growth period for this herb, and Asgard Small World is no exception. What's more, the cultivators in the small world of the Immortal Palace also need to use pills to cultivate, and using the herbs there to fill the holes of the Yuqing Sect is simply to tear down the east wall and make up the west wall.

"This ...... Okay, please ask Elder Ye to bother more. "Liu Qian can't help it, Ye Zan said so, so he has to wait a little longer.

After talking about the issue of herbal medicine, Liu Qian didn't stay long, got up to say goodbye to Ye Zan and Wu Changsheng, and went back to his Lingwu Peak Alchemy Hall with a worried face. To be honest, he really didn't have much hope that Ye Zan would be able to come up with a way. After all, Ye Zan is just a person, even if there are many magical means, can he still make those herbs mature in a blink of an eye after planting?

There are some things that seem to be ordinary and common, but no one can change them, because they are the fixed number of the Heavenly Dao. For example, if someone can make snow fly in June and thunder in winter, they can't really reverse the four seasons. In Liu Qian's opinion, the growth of this herb is also fixed, and how long it can grow can have enough medicinal power, and no one can easily change it.

Ye Zan and Wu Changsheng sent Liu Qian out of the courtyard, and then returned to the living room together.

After sitting down again, Ye Zan asked Wu Changsheng, "I don't know what is the matter with the master's master?"

Wu Changsheng bowed his hand and said, "Taishang, the three people you asked your disciples to investigate have just come back. ”

The three people that Wu Changsheng said were the three primordial gods who intercepted Ye Zan and Mo Ruyi on the way at the beginning, the mysterious forces. At the beginning, after Ye Zan and the others killed the three people, Ye Zan collected the bodies of the three people and read some memories from the three corpses. It's just that those memories are not about the mysterious forces, but some memories of the three people before they became the power of the primordial gods.

So, Ye Zan sent those messages back to Wu Changsheng, and asked Wu Changsheng to investigate the true origin of the three people according to those information, and see if he could find clues about the mysterious forces.

It's just that this Shenhua Domain is so big, although the scope of that information has been narrowed down a lot, it is not easy to investigate a result. What's more, although the Yuqing Sect is a second-rate sect, its sphere of influence is limited to this northwest place, and it is difficult to do anything out of its own territory, let alone investigate such three dead people.

Fortunately, Ye Zan's status in the Yuqing Sect was extraordinary, and Wu Changsheng also gave a death order to the person in charge of the investigation, so that the information could be transmitted back so quickly.

"Oh, what did you find?" asked Ye Zan.

Now, Ye Zan himself has become the target of the mysterious forces, and he naturally attaches more importance to the mysterious forces. After all, no one wants to be remembered all the time, even if there is no loss all the time, but who can guarantee that there will be no accidents in the future. What Ye Zan wants to do most now is to quickly find out the origin of the mysterious forces, and then smash all the nuclear bombs in his stockpile, completely erasing the mysterious forces of this dog's day.

Of course, thinking so, Ye Zan also knows very well that it will definitely not be easy to find out the origin of the other party. If it was really so easy to find out, the mysterious force would not be mysterious for a long time, and it would be his turn to investigate.

Sure enough, hearing Ye Zan's question, Wu Changsheng's face showed a little shame, and he said: "Taishang forgives the sin, there are not many things found, and two of them have not made progress at all. However, the identity of the third one named Zhang Guangming was that the disciple in charge of the investigation found some clues. ”

Wu Changsheng was afraid that Ye Zan's expectations would be too high, so he gave a preventive shot first, and bluntly said that there was not much information found, so as not to make Ye Zan angry in disappointment.

Ye Zan smiled, waved his hand and said, "Okay, I know that this matter is not easy to investigate, and if you can find any bit of anything, it can be regarded as earned, so you can just say it." ”

"Yes," Wu Changsheng relieved his heart, and then said: "According to the information given by Taishang, the people sent by the disciple investigated Yanzhou in the territory of the Great Qi Kingdom in the southeast in many ways, and at first they did not find any information related to this Zhang Guangming. It wasn't until recently that he found a genealogy from a local family and found a genealogy from their collection of ancient books, that he had some clues. ”

Ye Zan was a little confused, but he didn't interrupt Wu Changsheng, but quietly listened to the other party and continued.

Wu Changsheng was not a showman, and then said: "That family, the ancestor used to be an elder of a sect, but that sect had already collapsed hundreds of years ago. That elder escaped for some reason, and that genealogy was the thing of that sect. In the genealogy, according to the information given by the Taishang, he found a name that was the same as the person the Taishang said. ”

Just a name, it definitely doesn't mean anything, there are hundreds of millions of people in the Shenhua Realm, and it is not unusual for people with the same name to have them. However, since Wu Changsheng said that he had found some clues, it must be more than that.

Therefore, Ye Zan was not in a hurry, and continued to listen patiently.

After that, according to the information in that genealogy, he checked other names, and finally found two people of the same generation as Zhang Guangming, who were already in the Yuanying realm. However, when they heard that it was the matter of Yuqing Sect, they didn't take any shelf, especially after listening to some of the information about Zhang Guangming he described, they affirmed that the person was indeed the Zhang Guangming they knew. Wu Changsheng said this, paused slightly, and then said: "So, if those two people didn't panic, then it is certain that Zhang Guangming, who was investigated by the Supreme People, should be this person." ”

As he spoke, Wu Changsheng took out some things, including an old genealogy, and then some notes and the like, some of which were newly written.

"So, that Zhang Guangming is a disciple of this Luo Tianzong who disappeared hundreds of years ago?" Ye Zan took those few things, and picked up the genealogy first, only to see that on the cover of the genealogy, it was the three words Luo Tianzong written.

However, this raises the question, if that person was a person from hundreds of years ago, then where are the memories of these hundreds of years. You must know that from that Zhang Guangming's memory, Ye Zan did not see the fall of Luo Tianzong, which means that the other party disappeared before the fall of Luo Tianzong. Although, judging from other information, there is nothing strange about the fall of Luo Tianzong, but it is just that the only Infant Ancestor failed to rush through the pass, and then scattered under various problems. However, Ye Zan also had some suspicions, the fall of Luo Tianzong might have something to do with that mysterious force.

Of course, Ye Zan didn't care very much, how Luo Tianzong didn't have it, and he was more concerned about how the mysterious forces came about. Although it seems that it is not very useful to just check Zhang Guangming's origin now, it is a good sign that it can be found. Therefore, if people don't know, unless they do it, this mysterious force may not really be able to do it seamlessly. (To be continued.) )
