Chapter 5 Going out to collect medicine

A person with a strong divine sense is not necessarily a powerful alchemist, but a powerful alchemist definitely has a strong divine sense, because only with a strong divine sense can he accurately grasp the situation in the Dan furnace during alchemy, and make adjustments to the pills being refined in the Dan furnace in time according to the situation, such as whether to use a large fire or a small fire, whether to add medicinal materials to the Dan furnace or subtract medicinal materials, and so on.

If there is no strong divine sense, then it is quite difficult to control these, and it is also very energy-consuming, which is also the fundamental reason why the vast majority of low-level alchemists can only practice the pill once in a while, because every time they practice the pill, it will consume too much of their energy, and if they don't rest for a while, then they really don't have the energy to refine the next furnace of pills.

The Tong family's only alchemist now, Old Man Qian, is like this, he can only practice the pill at most twice a month, and the success rate of each time is below 30 percent, according to the calculation of 300 pills per furnace, the pill he finally refines each time is no more than 90 pills, just like this, the Tong family still holds him like a treasure, and there are many small sects and small families around who want to dig him up, which shows how popular the alchemist is in Dongyang Zhou.

However, the problem of divine consciousness is not a problem for Tong Chen, at least not now, it may be because of the fact that he inherited a world from a congenital nature, Tong Chen's divine consciousness has always been very powerful, and perhaps it is precisely because of this that the success rate of his alchemy is relatively high.

In the past two months, he secretly alchemy no less than ten times, except for the first two times all failed, the final success rate of each of his pills in the back was more than fifty percent, and the last few times it reached more than sixty or seventy percent, with his current cultivation, if people knew that he not only knew how to alchemy, but also that the success rate of alchemy was so high, it would definitely surprise everyone's eyes.

Just now Tong Ji asked Tong Chen to help him steal Qing Yulu to use, this is a very high-grade medicine in Tong Ji's eyes, but it is not worth mentioning in Tong Chen's eyes, no matter how strong the medicinal effect of Qing Yulu is, it is just a medicine made by simply mixing a variety of flower dew, and it is not at the same level at all compared to the elixir that makes immortal cultivators crazy.

These days, Tong Chen is refining the same kind of pill, called Qingxin Pill, which is not a high-grade pill, but it is by no means comparable to ordinary medicines, after taking Qingxin Pill, you can warm the meridians of cultivators and stabilize the cultivation of cultivators, Tong Chen now carries hundreds of pills with him, he usually only eats them as snacks, and eats one when he is bored, which is completely inappropriate.

Tong Ji regarded Qing Yulu as a terrible drug, and sneakily came to Tong Chen to help him steal it, didn't he know that Tong Chen ate a hundred times better pills than Qing Yulu every day, seeing him like that and coming to him to help steal Qing Yulu, how could Tong Chen feel ridiculous in his heart?

After entering the house, Tong Chen saw that Zhao Lan had already put breakfast on the table, he hurriedly sat down to eat breakfast, at the dinner table, because he was about to go out to collect medicine, as a mother, Zhao Lan inevitably had to tell a few words, nothing more than to let him be careful outside, and come back quickly after collecting medicine, Tong Chen agreed one by one.

In fact, for Tong Chen, who has a world against the sky, he doesn't need to go out to collect medicine at all, and he can also hand in the amount of medicinal materials handed in by the medicine boy on time every month, but because he doesn't want to arouse the suspicion of others, he will still go out to collect medicine like other medicine boys.

Zhao Lan had already helped him prepare the shoulder bag and medicine basket to carry when he went out in advance, and the medicine collection tools were all in the medicine basket, bidding farewell to Zhao Lan, Tong Chen put the medicine basket on his back and carried the shoulder bag, and then left Tong's house and walked towards a deep mountain behind Yuquan.

Normally, medicine boys will go out to collect medicine together, but in the past, Tong Chen's popularity was not good, and everyone didn't like to be with him, as for the current Tong Chen, he doesn't like to walk with people anymore, he is happy to be alone.

Soon after leaving the gate of Tong's house, Tong Chen noticed that someone was following him, he used his divine sense to investigate, and found that there were three people following him, all of whom were children of their Tong family, and the first one was Tong Ji who had just finished talking to him in the morning.

Two lives, Tong Chen's mind is naturally good, he immediately guessed the general situation, eighty percent was in the morning he annoyed Tong Ji, Tong Ji arranged for the family to follow behind him those little followers secretly monitor his movements, as soon as he found out that he came out of the house, his little followers immediately told him about it, and he directly led people to chase him out.

sneered in his heart, but Tong Chen remained silent on the surface, he still walked towards the mountain road with the medicine basket on his back, as if he didn't notice that he was being followed.

After a while, a rush of footsteps sounded behind him, followed by Tong Ji's voice behind him: "Tong Chen, you stop me!"

With Tong Ji's voice, Tong Chen slowly turned around, and when he saw Tong Ji, Tong Chen deliberately showed a frightened and panicked look: "You...... How did you get here?"

"Hmph!" Tong Ji sneered: "You useless wretch, aren't you quite arrogant when you talk to me in the morning?

After saying this, Tong Ji continued: "Tong Chen, I see that you have been tightened recently, you didn't say no when I asked you to get me medicine before, but now you not only dare to refuse me, but also dare to talk back to me, if I don't teach you a good lesson today, I think you are less and less in your eyes!"

Following Tong Ji came two teenagers who were about the same age as Tong Chen, after Tong Ji said this, one of the teenagers whispered to Tong Ji: "Brother step, do you really want to do something to Tong Chen? He is the son of the head of the family, your younger brother!"

After the young man finished speaking, Tong Ji's face turned cold: "What do you say, who is the son of the head of the family, and who is my younger brother? Do you look at his poor and sour look, what does he look like my younger brother? Tell you, my father has never had such a son as him, he is just a little bastard born to his mother and other men, let me hear you say that he is my brother in the future, be careful that I cut off your tongue!"

"Yes, stepbrother, I know it's wrong!" The young man saw Tong Ji's ugly face, and hurriedly took the initiative to admit his mistake and said, "I palm my mouth! I palm my mouth!" As he spoke, the young man reached out and slapped his face twice.

Tong Ji didn't deliberately lower his voice when he talked to the young man, so Tong Chen heard all his words in his ears, originally he just wanted to teach Tong Ji a little lesson, but when he heard that Tong Ji scolded him for being a little bastard and indirectly insulted his mother Zhao Lan, his heart immediately cooled.

In his previous life, as an excellent special soldier, Tong Chen was originally a ruthless person, but now that Tong Ji dared to break ground on his head, he couldn't swallow this mouthful.
