Chapter 16 Ning Chen tries his sword

"Sniff!"

Ning Chen's nose smelled a strange smell.

At first glance, it is a little pungent, but after a while, you can feel the fragrance.

"It's medicinal incense!" Ning Chen said in surprise.

"Good nose. Xia Yuanshan chuckled and said, "Do you know why there aren't any disciples here?"

"The disciple doesn't know, please let the master know. Ning Chen said neither humbly nor arrogantly.

"Because there's a shortage of money here. Xia Yuanshan looked at Ning Chen and said, "You had a total of four senior brothers and two senior sisters before, and now they are all busy making money on the rivers and lakes. ”

Xia Yuanshan seemed to see that Ning Chen's expression was wrong, and briefly explained the traces of the remaining disciples.

It was very simple, and he didn't even tell Ning Chen his name......

The reason for this Xia Yuanshan did not say clearly, but Ning Chen probably guessed that it was probably related to this medicinal incense.

"Smack!"

Xia Yuanshan threw Ning Chen an ancient book with "Pharmacopoeia" written on it, two big characters.

"Go to Houlin. Xia Yuanshan instructed Ning Chen: "There is a medicinal field there, you have to sit down all the numbers within three days, and be familiar with their medicinal properties, and identify their years;

"The disciple knows. Ning Chen didn't ask Xia Yuanshan why he did this, the so-called master has his own affairs, and the disciple obeys his work, and now Ning Chen's identity is Xia Yuanshan's disciple, obedient and obedient, it must be better than asking in words.

"Wait!" Just as Ning Chen turned around, Xia Yuanshan stopped Ning Chen again, and then said: "Remember, don't get close to here within three days, otherwise you will ......"

Xia Yuanshan stretched out his right hand and lightly scratched his neck, and then said, "This seat will kill you to make medicinal fertilizer!"

Xia Yuanshan left.

Ning Chen felt that his back was already wet with sweat, such a simple action, coupled with that murderous look, Ning Chen was sure that Xia Yuanshan was not joking with himself again.

"Is it really a sheep in the tiger's mouth?" Ning Chen smiled bitterly and walked towards the back mountain.

The island is not big, but this mountain accounts for two-thirds of the island, and halfway up the back mountain is the medicine field that Xia Yuanshan said.

I don't know any of them.

Ning Chen's scalp tingled for a while when he saw these things, although it was sorted out in an orderly manner, but it couldn't stand a medicine blind person at a loss.

I really don't know if it's really appropriate to build a medicine field here in such a hasty way?

Ning Chen looked at the total of about twenty kinds of medicines here, ranging from three or two pills to hundreds.

There are licorice and angelica that are visible to the public, and there are also rare people who participate in Ganoderma lucidum.

Of course, Ganoderma lucidum is planted in the forest, and the so-called medicinal field is just a model name.

For another three days, Ning Chen did not leave a single step, and under strong pressure, Ning Chen checked the records of the "Pharmacopoeia" and finally completed the identification of these more than 20 herbs.

Whether it is the characteristics, or the identification of the year, as well as the simple way to use it, Ning Chen's heart that has been firmly recorded, the difference is only to understand it.

It's one thing to write it down, but it's another thing to be able to use it.

"Chen Ning!"

A soft drink interrupted Ning Chen, who was studying the "Pharmacopoeia".

"Master. Ning Chen closed the "Pharmacopoeia" and stood up to salute.

After a simple question, Ning Chen's answer made Xia Yuanshan very happy, and his eyes looking at Ning Chen also carried a hint of agreement.

"Sit. Xia Yuanshan sat on a stone on the edge of the medicine field, and patted the vacant seat beside him, signaling Ning Chen to be by his side.

"You are my seventh apprentice. Xia Yuanshan waited until Ning Chen sat down, then took out an object and put it beside Ning Chen, saying, "This can be regarded as a meeting gift for you from the teacher." ”

It's not valuable, it's just an ordinary little wooden knife.

Chen Ning's name was still engraved on the handle, and it was obvious that it had just been completed.

"You also know that there is a shortage of money for the teacher. Xia Yuanshan was also a little helpless at the moment, and then said: "So there is no way to give you valuable things, this wooden knife is carved by the master himself, and several of your senior brothers and sisters have one." ”

"Master Xie. Ning Chen immediately got up and bowed lightly to Xia Yuanshan.

"To be my disciple, you don't need to be too formal. Xia Yuanshan didn't say anything on the surface, but he was still very satisfied with Ning Chen's performance in his heart.

"In two days, I'll come back to your Pharmacopoeia. Xia Yuanshan calculated the time, picked a few of the largest orchid grasses in the medicine field, and left directly.

"Orchid grass?" Ning Chen frowned slightly, it was recorded in the pharmacopoeia that the orchid grass has no medicinal properties, and it is a supplement to poison, which can enhance the poisonous effect.

The older the vintage, the stronger the potency!

"What the hell is he doing?" Ning Chen looked at Xia Yuanshan's departing back and fell into deep thought.

Two days later, Xia Yuanshan came here to bring Ning Chen back to the small courtyard, and arranged his own unique room for him.

There were only the two of them on the entire island, and if Ning Chen didn't have another task on his side, he would be happy to be quiet.

Pharmacy, Xia Yuanshan never let Ning Chen get close, and Xia Yuanshan himself rarely went out of the pharmacy, except for some times when Xia Yuanshan asked Ning Chen to go to the back mountain to pick some commonly used medicines, Ning Chen couldn't see Xia Yuanshan.

"It's weird everywhere. Ning Chen has been practicing for a long time with himself side by side, and it can be called the basic sword technique that has penetrated deep into the bone marrow.

For nine years, every day was the same action, Ning Chen couldn't remember how many times he had practiced this basic sword technique, but the sweat that was infected in it was lingering.

"Good swordsmanship. Xia Yuanshan's voice suddenly came from behind him.

"Master. Ning Chen immediately put away his sword and stood upright, looked at Xia Yuanshan and said, "Disciple ......"

"Show me the swordsmanship you just used just now. Xia Yuanshan said to Ning Chen.

"Yes. ”

After a trip to the swordsmanship, Ning Chen did not feel any discomfort, but was hearty, and the human sword was like one.

"Ding!"

With a soft sound, Xia Yuanshan waved his hand gently, and a sword on the sword rack in his courtyard had already fallen into his hand, stabbing towards Ning Chen.

Without the slightest warning.

The long drive goes straight into is to use the thorns in the basic swordsmanship to the extreme.

Ning Chen's habitual sword blade was wrong, and the sword collapsed with a plan, and it directly blocked Xia Yuanshan's attack.

It's just that if this move is used by someone with the same cultivation as Xia Yuanshan, then Xia Yuanshan's sword will be directly broken, although Ning Chen's swordsmanship is good, but his strength is much worse, and he was gently siphoned by Xia Yuanshan, and the two swords seemed to be sucked together, no matter how hard Ning Chen exerted his strength, he couldn't get out.

This really made Ning Chen busy with his hands, and he didn't know how to resolve it for a while.

"Tsk!" Xia Yuanshan sighed lightly and lost his strength.

"Bang Bang!"

Ning Chen, who couldn't retract his strength, took a few steps back, and secretly exclaimed in his heart: "I can't imagine that I can't even stick to a move." ”
