Guo An's Mansion in Anningfang, Dongcheng District. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Jiang Menghong stood in front of Guo Ningcheng and his wife.
Guo Ningcheng looked suspicious and asked, "An'er really wants to learn alchemy from that alchemy master Xu Yuexiu in the foundation building period?"
Jiang Menghong replied: "Yes, the young master said it before he left yesterday. ”
Guo Ningcheng said helplessly: "I have long heard that Xu Yuexiu is extremely unkind, I hope An'er can get what she wants." ”
Beicheng Baiyin Garden.
Hearing Guo Fuxin's report, Guo Lan's face was frosty, and he was depressed.
He said: "What does An'er think?" Li Huan, the 'Holy Hand of Compassion', Zhang Guang, the 'An Shi Dan Master', and the 'Suffering Dan Master' Feng Yunfu, these people are not skilled in cultivating the Dan Technique, and their character is a hundred times stronger than the cold-blooded and ruthless 'Ruthless Dan King' Xu Yuexiu. Why did he kneel down and beg Xu Yuexiu? If he was driven back in the end, even I, the uncle, would be embarrassed. ”
Yanchun Garden is the residence of Li Heng, the "Holy Hand of Compassion".
In the quiet room, Li Heng, who looks like a sixty-year-old man, is sitting on his knees.
Nearby, a young monk in his twenties was standing with his hands down.
"Are you sure it's Guo An who knelt in front of the gate of Qingye Garden?" asked Li Heng. Its voice echoed as if it had come from the nine heavens.
The young man replied, "Yes, it has been confirmed that the young man is Guo An." ”
He said indignantly: "That Xu Yuexiu was arrogant and arrogant in deceiving the world, and he dared to call him the "King of Dan", and he didn't take the masters in Chili City in his eyes at all. I think that Guo An is also a false appearance, he has gained a good reputation for nothing, but he has eyes and does not know the real person. In the end, nothing will be achieved and people will laugh. ”
"Hmph-" Li Heng didn't say anything, just sneered.
Liang Hui Garden.
Liang Ping asked the subordinate in front of him: "Then Guo An is still kneeling?"
The subordinate replied: "Yes, the seventh young master. Guo An was still kneeling, and his posture didn't even change a bit. ”
"Hehe, there's a good show. Liang Ping gloated and said, "That Xu Yuexiu never takes outsiders in his eyes." Now the Guo family's most famous 'young model' has come to his door, see if he dares not to give the Guo family face!"
Although he knelt for a day and a night, Guo An was not irritable at all, nor did he waste time.
While absorbing the aura of heaven and earth, he sorted out all kinds of information in his mind, and in the middle of the night, he also consumed the power of his divine soul to transmit knowledge to Zhao Chen along the silk thread of faith.
Guo An's kneeling is three days and three nights.
In the past three days, about whether he can knock on the gate of Qingye Garden, outsiders have been talking a lot, and they have been talking non-stop.
Because the Guo family cleaned the whole city, Guo An's name has always been on the cusp, and he has not fallen to the bottom, and has always provided small talk topics for the general public.
On the third day, it was past noon.
Guo An's face was a little haggard, but his waist was still straight, and his kneeling posture was still the same as before.
On both sides of the once secluded street corner, a few people were watching from afar, and even exchanged heads.
Guo An is like air when they are like air.
Wu Ya on the side also lost the anger and anger he had when he first met, and he also ignored them.
Just when everyone on the periphery speculated that Guo An could hold out for a few days, to their surprise, the gate of Qingye Garden opened.
"Squeak-"
The two vermilion gates, which had been silent for many days, opened from the inside, and a Taoist boy with a curled hair and a gray robe stepped out.
This childhood is about fourteen or fifteen, the face is naturally blue, the face is deformed, the jaw is crooked, the lips are not closed, and he does not want to be close. His cultivation is really not weak, and he is around the eighth * ninth layer of Qi training. Surrounded by smoke and fire, the smell of medicine is riddled with medicine.
Dao Tong looked directly at Guo An and said coldly: "You are rude and disturbing people for many days, which makes people very angry. I was going to blow you away and teach you a lesson. But the old man is kind-hearted, he misses you sincerely, and accepts you as a fire boy. In the future, you will be responsible for pounding the medicine and washing the dishes, watching the fire and adding materials. Don't come in with me yet!"
After speaking, Dao Tong didn't look at Guo An's face, and turned around and returned to the door first.
Wu Ya came to Guo An's side, heard Dao Tong's words, his face was angry, and he was about to scold, but Guo An waved his hand to stop him.
Not caring about Daotong's humiliation, Guo An was lucky all over his body and relieved the discomfort all over his body. Then he got up and slowly walked into the gate with his legs raised.
Wu Ya followed into the door.
In the distance, the gate closed tightly in the midst of the stunned gaze. Then a layer of fiery red enchantment rose in Qingye Garden, and the defensive formation was activated, isolating everyone's prying eyes.
Entering the gate, ignoring the Taoist boy who went away on his own, Guo An's eyes were tightly locked on a person three feet in front of him.
The man was wearing a jade yin and yang robe, wearing a green gauze scarf on his head, and his cultivation was completely restrained, and his strength was not leaked at all. At first glance, he looks in his twenties, but his temperament is mature and dignified, including the refinement of the years, and the vicissitudes of life are exposed. A pair of Danfeng eyes, the essence flashes between opening and closing, and the eyes are sharp. The face is like a snake, and the face is white like wax. His feminine, mean, and ruthless temperament is vividly displayed and undisguised.
"Ruthless and truthful people, fortune makes yin and yang peep into creation.
Water and fire alchemy to seek the avenue, who cares about life and death!"
"This is Xu Yuexiu!"
Although I haven't seen him, I consciously told Guo An that it wouldn't be wrong.
When the figure of Daotong disappeared and the enchantment rose, Xu Yuexiu bent down, bowed to Guo An, and said after getting up: "Subordinate Xu Yuexiu has seen the young master. ”
"Okay, you old Xu, you just left the young master out of the door for three days and ignored it, you didn't take the young master in your eyes at all. Today, I, Lao Wu, am going to have a good talk with you. Wu Ya stood behind Guo An, rolling up his sleeves and looking desperate.
"Don't be presumptuous!" Guo An reprimanded Wu Ya.
Ignoring Wu Ya's clamour, Xu Yuexiu thought he didn't exist.
"Please forgive me, the young master, it is not that the subordinates deliberately make it difficult for the young master, but the master specially explained that the subordinates must act in this way. There are many offends, and there are many hopes. Xu Yuexiu bowed again.
"You-" Wu Ya was ignored by Xu Yuexiu, and his anger was full of anger.
"Do you still want to taste the power of the 'Seven Poison Pill' again?" Xu Yuexiu squinted at Wu Ya and said. The tone is extremely disdainful and contemptuous.
"Okay, Wu Ya, I said that you must not be rude to Qingye Garden. If you can't, leave. Guo An stopped Wu Ya.
"It's the young master. Wu Ya bowed his head, his idea of borrowing Guo An's fox and fake tiger power was out of play.
"Mr. Xu doesn't have to mind, Guo An is not a narrow-minded person. Mr. Don't call Guo An the young master in the future, just call Guo An's name directly. Guo An said to Xu Yuexiu.
Xu Yuexiu was not a person who said much, so he changed his words and said, "Young master, please follow your subordinates." He led the way deeper into the courtyard.
In Qingye Garden, many plants and trees were transplanted by Xu Yuexiu.
There are more than 10 "10,000-needle pine" in the tree garden on the left, the tree body is tall and stout, the pine needles are tough like iron, and the pine tower is formed once every ten years. The rosin fragrance fills its inside, and the pine nuts contain abundant spiritual power and medicinal power, which can clear the heart and eyes after taking it, and have a miraculous effect on curing the disease.
In the garden on the right, there are two "nine-branched emerald leaf trees", the body of the tree is more than one person high, no more than no less, there are nine branches of the tree fork, and the sparse palm-sized leaves on each fork are glowing with emerald green, and a green wood power envelops the surroundings.
When passing by, take a deep breath of aura, and your body and mind will be refreshed, and your fatigue will be eliminated.
The leaves of the nine-branched emerald leaf tree that are more than 30 years old have extremely high medicinal value and can be used to refine a variety of elixirs.
The "purple whiskered butterfly grass" in the flower bed in front of the hall is more than half a person high, the leaves are palm-like and lobed, the bottom of the inflorescence is purple and the silk is upside down, and the flowers open from the bottom to the top. The inflorescence is surrounded by a halo composed of colorful glow, and there is a faint fragrant smell, and the fragrance has a strong joyful effect.
Purple whiskered phoenix butterfly grass is one of the main materials for refining "psychedelic pills" and "phantom elixirs".
There is also a cluster of heterogeneous "tear bamboo" behind the house, which has an excellent effect of gathering qi and absorbing spirits.
Of course, there are many plants and herbs that Guo An can and can't call along the way.
Xu Yuexiu simply changed Qingye Garden into a big medicine garden, and his net worth is really not to be underestimated.
After passing through most of the Qingye Garden, Guo An entered a remote area and stepped into Xu Yuexiu's alchemy room.
"Young master, I, Lao Wu, am waiting for you outside. Wu Ya knew Xu Yuexiu's temperament and didn't dare to enter his Dan room.
The tall and simple Dan House has nothing to do with luxury, it is built with strong and fire-resistant spiritual materials, and will not be burned down by accidental fire. The interior is spacious and brightly lit, and the walls made of gold and stone are inlaid with Taoist runes.
There is a closed side door on each side of the Dan room, and in the middle is a top-level magic weapon "Yin Yang Fish Pattern Furnace".
The "Yin Yang Fish Pattern Furnace" is more than one person high, the furnace body is wide, there is a Yin Yang fish pattern on the left and right furnace bodies, and there is a porthole on the front and back sides.
On the top of the furnace lid, there are two carved dragon and tiger backbones arched high, and the intersection of the two backbones is inlaid with a fist spirit bead.
There is an ever-bright fire in the fire pond between the four feet at the bottom of the furnace, and when it is not the time of alchemy, the flame of the furnace is only the size of an incense head.
In front of the stove is a futon woven with water and fire.
Other than that, there was nothing else in the room.
"If the young master wants to learn alchemy, he must first be familiar with the medicinal properties. Follow me. ”
Xu Yuexiu took Guo An to the right side hall.
The room is filled with a strong smell of herbs, and dozens of medicine cabinets are arranged neatly. The medicine cabinet is divided into small compartments. The small compartment was plastered with notes with the names of the medicines.
According to the plant medicinal materials, animal medicinal materials and mineral medicinal materials, such as ginseng, sesame, insects and snakes, bear gall tiger bone, cinnabar, realgar, lead pill, etc., there are many types, beyond Guo An's knowledge.
Although they studied with Tao Jingyu and Chen Xunben for a period of time and learned a lot of spiritual herbs and spiritual objects, their knowledge and ability were far inferior to Xu Yuexiu, and many spiritual medicines were out of their reach.
