Seeing the cheap apprentice in front of him respectfully handing over the tea, Lu Ye couldn't help but want to laugh.

He didn't know whether Zhou Yuansheng really wanted to learn alchemy, or if he was conspiring with Lin Zai, but he felt that he was so young, and he actually accepted an old man in his seventies and eighties as an apprentice, which was really a bit ridiculous.

Perhaps because of Lin Zai and Caiyi's deception, Lu Ye always lacked a sense of trust in the cheap apprentices who suddenly appeared. He always felt that Zhou Yuansheng was likely to be Lin Zai or Caiyi's accomplice, or another guy who had a plot against him.

None of that matters, though.

For the sake of these medicinal materials in the Yuansheng Medicine Shop, even if you are deceived once, it is worth it.

Lu Ye was not interested in directly taking these medicinal materials for himself. He opened one drawer after another, observed each medicinal material very carefully, and then asked Zhou Yuansheng the names of these medicinal materials.

Matching the medicinal properties and names of the medicines in the chaotic memories will definitely be of great benefit to the future alchemy.

The pharmacy is not big, but there are more than 100 kinds of commonly used medicinal materials and dozens of pills. The only regret is that there are basically no too high-grade medicinal materials and pills, and the three grades are the limit, and most of them are old goods.

Not all medicinal herbs are as old as the heart grass, and some medicinal herbs, after a long time, become waste.

Zhou Yuansheng followed behind Lu Ye, and whenever Lu Ye picked up a medicinal herb and elixir, he would take the trouble to tell Lu Ye the name of such a thing.

Unconsciously, Lu Ye found that his vision was not very good. When I looked up outside, I realized that it was dusk.

Zhou Yuansheng lit the oil lamp and handed it to Lu Ye.

Lu Ye laughed, glanced at Lin Zai, who was sleeping on the table on the side, and continued to check the medicinal materials and pills, while also not forgetting to chat with the old apprentice.

At the age of twelve, his parents died early, and then he poured all his family wealth into the hands of a rookie who cultivated the truth, and at the age of twenty-two he reached the first level of qi refining, and then entered the Luoyan Mountain, looking for medicinal materials that had not been discovered, first set up a stall, and at the age of thirty-three, he opened a store and opened this Yuansheng medicine shop. At the age of sixty-seven, he reached the first level of condensation, and since then he has not grown......

Eighty-eight-year-old Zhou Yuansheng couldn't help but sigh when he mentioned his past.

Cultivating the truth, for ordinary people, is by no means a simple matter, like Lu Yuanfeng, who reached the condensation stage at the age of sixteen, not only needs excellent qualifications, but even needs resources from a powerful sect.

"It's been more than 20 years, and I haven't seen any progress ......in cultivation," Zhou Yuansheng sighed, "I'm afraid there's no hope." ”

Lu Ye glanced at Zhou Yuansheng, pondered for a moment, and said, "Logically speaking, no matter how poor the qualifications are, it is impossible to lose the slightest growth for more than twenty years. What kind of mental method are you cultivating?

Cultivating the true heart of the Dharma has always been kept secret. It is very ignorant to rashly let people say their own mantras for cultivating the true heart and Fa. However, as a "master", such a straightforward question seems to be reasonable.

Zhou Yuansheng hesitated, but still recited the mantra.

Lu Ye listened carefully for a long time, then suddenly shook his head and said, "Your set of mental methods doesn't seem to be complete, and it doesn't seem to be very clever. After hesitating for a moment, Lu Ye said again, "I know a lot of mental methods, so I'll give you one." Well...... Which one is better?" "Since you are someone else's "master", you always have to teach something. Lu Ye stretched out his hand and pinched Zhou Yuansheng's veins, and the powerful Yuan Shen directly probed in.

Zhou Yuansheng suddenly felt that wisp of primordial spirit, and his heart couldn't help but be shocked.

Although his qualifications were extremely poor, he was also a cultivator in the condensation period, and Zhou Yuansheng still sensed the strength of Lu Ye's Yuan Shen at once.

This little master is ......

It's not easy!

"Hmm...... Your constitution...... So, I'll repeat the mantra and you write it down. Lu Ye chose a cultivation method that he thought was more suitable for Zhou Yuansheng and read it out.

Silently wrote down the mantra and savored it in his heart for a moment, Zhou Yuansheng was even more shocked.

This set of mantras is better than my previous set, just by understanding it, you can understand: it is much more clever.

Boy!

Listening to what he meant, it seems that he knows a lot of cultivation methods!

A disciple of a master, who is only at the level of Qi refining, is so knowledgeable, so what kind of character should his master be?!

Zhou Yuansheng trembled his lips, looked at Lu Ye, and said, "Master, that...... When are we going to meet our ancestors?"

"Master?" Lu Ye didn't think much about it, he had lost his memory, who was his master, and where would he remember. smiled bitterly, saw that it was not too early, and said, "It's not too early, we should go back too." Seeing that there were still a lot of medicinal herbs and pills that had not been checked, he said with some regret, "Let's come back tomorrow morning." ”

Zhou Yuansheng was stunned for a moment, Lu Ye diverted the topic, he couldn't chase after him and asked where the master was, thought for a while, and said, "It's just time for dinner, I will invite the master and the master to go to Yanlai Building to eat something before leaving." ”

"No need. Lu Ye excused himself, "The distance is not close, and if I go back too late, my father will be worried." ”

"Why should the master be so polite to the apprentice, although the apprentice is not rich, but he still has a few spars, and he can afford to eat a meal. Zhou Yuansheng said, "Just when the time comes, pack a few dishes for the old man to take back, which can be regarded as a filial piety of the apprentice." ”

As he was talking, Lin woke up again, and when he heard that Zhou Yuansheng was going to have a treat, he was naturally extremely happy.

Lu Ye had no choice but to follow Zhou Yuansheng to Yanlai Tower.

Zhou Yuansheng originally wanted a private room, but during the New Year, the business of Yanlailou was very good, and there was no private room, only there was an empty table in the hall on the second floor.

Zhou Yuansheng ordered a few dishes and asked for a pot of wine.

Lu Ye had heard Jin Shaotang say before that the consumption of this Yan Lailou was extremely high, and generally those who came to eat here were cultivators. Secular people do not have this financial ability.

However, cultivators are not worldly people, but they are also laypeople.

The hall was noisy and chaotic like a market. Some of them drank too much alcohol and even vomited in a very undignified manner.

After ordering the dish, Zhou Yuansheng said with some hesitation, "This Yanlailou's spiritual steamed fish is a major feature, but the price is extremely expensive, and you need a second-grade spar to serve a plate......

Lu Ye remembered that Zhou Yuansheng didn't order the spirit steamed fish, so he smiled and said, "When I have enough money, please." ”

"Don't dare. Zhou Yuansheng blushed.

As he was talking, he suddenly heard a shout.

"Oh, isn't this Lao Zhou?" A middle-aged man walked towards this side and slapped Zhou Yuansheng on the shoulder, "It's really rare, you are willing to come to this Yanlai Building?"

Behind the middle-aged man, a person followed.

Both of them were cultivated in the condensation period, and the person in the back cultivated slightly higher, reaching the sixth layer of condensation.

Zhou Yuansheng frowned, got up and turned around, and clasped his fists at the middle-aged man, "Brother Li, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”

"Hey. Brother Li laughed and said, "Have you finished eating?" ”

"This ...... We just sat down. ”

"Then don't sit down, just pack and take it away. Brother Li said, "Hurry up." As he spoke, he actually pushed Zhou Yuansheng. After that, he didn't bother to pay attention to Lu Ye and Lin Zai, who were not high in cultivation, and turned around and smiled at the master of the sixth layer of the condensation vein, "Senior Brother Zheng, I'm really sorry, there is no private room, let's just sit down in this hall." ”

Then Senior Brother Zheng said, "It's okay." As he spoke, he sat down directly on Zhou Yuansheng's original seat.

"Brother Li, this ......" Zhou Yuansheng blushed, and wanted to say something, but was glared at by Brother Li, and swallowed back the words vividly.

Brother Li glared at Lu Ye and Lin again viciously, and said, "What are you still doing in a daze?

Lin Zai looked at Brother Li and Senior Brother Zheng with a calm face, and wrote down their looks very seriously.

Let you be arrogant for two days, and when you say your last words......

Lu Ye smiled, stood up, and said to Zhou Yuansheng and Lin Zai, "Let's go, just pack it up and go back." ”

"Wait!" Suddenly, a voice rang out in the corner of the hall.

In the hall by the window, at a table, sat alone.

This man was in his fifties, thin, with high cheekbones and a pointed chin, like a mouse. He picked up a glass of wine, drank it down, and then looked at it coldly. "The surname is Li, you are very arrogant, don't you understand the rules of first come, first served?"

Then Brother Li looked at the person who spoke, and raised his eyebrows, "Zhang Mouse, do you want to meddle in your affairs again?"

"yes. The rat looked at Zhou Yuansheng, "Let me sit there! Dare to go! Break your dog's legs!"

Obviously, this person is not pulling out a knife to help when he sees injustice, but is determined to go against Brother Li.

It's okay now, Zhou Yuansheng and Lu Ye are not leaving, nor are they staying, and they are a little embarrassed for a while.

Lu Ye really wasn't interested in messing with these cultivators in the cultivation realm, but now that he wanted to get out, it seemed impossible.
