Chapter 20: Urging Medicine
Ask for recommendations, ask for collections
Under a full moon, a slightly swarthy young man in blue sat in front of a simple and unusual thatched hut, holding a dark green bead in his hand and examining it carefully, muttering from time to time a sentence or two that outsiders could not hear clearly. This person is none other than Zhang Peng, who should be cultivating now. Tonight, he took out the beads to attract aura as he had done a few days ago, but after a quarter of an hour, there was still no aura gathering towards the beads.
This suddenly made Zhang Peng puzzled, took the spirit bead and took a closer look in the house, but did not find the slightest change in the bead. This suddenly made his heart start to pound, knowing that the progress of his current exercises could all be pinned on this mysterious orb. If this bead loses its effect of attracting the aura of heaven and earth, then it is likely that he will stay at the level of the third or fourth level of qi cultivation for the rest of his life, which is one of the results he least wants.
But why does the bead suddenly stop attracting aura, is this mysterious bead a treasure that absorbs and stores the aura of heaven and earth, it has absorbed too much aura in the past few days, and the bead has been full of aura, so it is no longer attracting the aura of heaven and earth around it? Or is it because the aura of heaven and earth around the house has been absorbed in the past few days, and now the beads in the house can no longer sense the aura of heaven and earth?
After Zhang Peng came to these two plausible conclusions in his heart, he grabbed the beads and walked towards the outside of the hut. In his heart, he was still more inclined to the aura of heaven and earth around the thatched hut was attracted and devoured too much by the spirit beads, and became thin and abnormal, causing the spirit beads to not sense the aura and unable to attract the aura.
All he had to do was go to the other corner of the medicine garden to see if the spirit bead could attract the aura of heaven and earth again.
After hurrying to the other corner of the medicine garden, he held the bead in the palm of his hand, quietly waiting for the aura to swarm again.
But a quarter of an hour passed, and there was still not the slightest aura gathering around;
Zhang Peng was not angry, but stayed where he was and continued to wait.
However, after two quarters of an hour and three quarters of an hour passed, there was still no phenomenon of aura convergence.
Zhang Peng immediately understood that this was not caused by the so-called spirit bead swallowing up the surrounding spiritual energy, but by the fact that the spirit bead could no longer attract the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
With a depressed face, before returning to the hut from the corner of the medicine garden, looking at the dark green beads, Zhang Peng began to verify his first idea, the idea that the spirit bead might be a strange spirit stone that can replenish itself.
But when he tried all the methods he could think of to sense and absorb the aura in the spirit bead, let alone absorb the aura, even the induction did not find the slightest aura in the bead. The experiment ended in failure again.
"Since it's not that the aura of the surrounding heaven and earth has decreased, and the spirit bead is not able to store aura like a spirit stone, then why did the spirit bead need to absorb the aura before? Where did all the absorbed aura go, and did it have any effect? Zhang Peng asked himself several questions in a row
After thinking about it for a long time, he found that he still couldn't explain why the spirit beads needed to absorb so much aura in front of him? It seems that the spirit beads have absorbed those spiritual energies and have no effect until now, Zhang Peng is still thinking about it.
"Hey, the effect, yes, what is the effect of the spirit bead absorbing such an aura?" A surprise suddenly came out of Zhang Peng's mouth, and then he was stunned, the effect of the spirit bead seemed to remind him of something.
Then Zhang Peng carefully deliberated in his heart, what is the role of the spirit bead, but it is definitely not used to practice like me, which can be known from the fact that the current spirit bead is not attracting the vitality of heaven and earth. But since the spirit bead is not used for practicing to attract spiritual energy, what should be the function of the spirit bead? As Zhang Peng continued to scrutinize the role of the spirit bead, he uncovered the fog that affected his judgment layer by layer, and it seemed that as long as he worked hard, he could break through the greatest secret of the spirit bead -- the true effect of the spirit bead
Zhang Peng, who didn't come up with any results after an hour, also felt irritable in his heart, and after looking at Lingzhu again, he was ready to take
It is placed in a storage bag. After all, no matter how good the spirit bead is, if you can't attract the aura anymore now, it won't help you in any way. And now he is going to continue to finish today's unfinished cultivation, and from this point of view, Zhang Peng is still a very assertive person......
Just as he was about to put the spirit bead into the storage bag, a full moon and an ancient verdant tree came into his eyes. This caused him to retract his hand, which was already on top of the storage bag, and looked up at the outside of the large array, where the full moon hung high in the air and the scene above the orb was exactly the same. If there is any difference, it is that there are no ancient trees here now, there are only verdant and abnormal spirit grasses.
"Could it be that the function of the spirit bead is to be used on plants. Zhang Peng whispered in surprise again, after seeing the pattern on the spirit bead, he didn't know why he suddenly had such a wonderful idea.
Then he began to think carefully about the correct surname of his idea, but the more he thought about it, the stronger and more affirmative his instincts.
After a cup of tea, he decided to try it first according to his own ideas. If it fails, the spirit bead will not run, and he will not have any loss, so he can put the spirit bead away again, but if he succeeds, he will find out the true mystery of the spirit bead, and maybe it will bring him greater benefits than attracting pure spiritual energy.
He randomly found a ten-year-old hundred dragon grass in front of the thatched hut, dug away the soil around the roots of the spirit grass, put the spirit bead into it, and then carefully observed the changes of the spirit bead and the hundred dragon grass.
I saw that at this time, the dark green spirit bead suddenly released a faint dark green spiritual light, enveloping the hundred dragon grass next to it. This sudden strange phenomenon immediately stunned Zhang Peng, and he didn't even know that he was drooling a lot.
After a tea time had passed, Zhang Peng closed his open mouth. At this time, the spirit bead no longer released dark green spiritual light, and turned into a dark green ball that was exactly the same as before.
Zhang Peng stepped forward, picked up the dark green spirit bead that had been dimmed, carefully observed the appearance of the spirit bead, after a tea time, he found that the spirit bead was not the slightest difference from the previous appearance, it seemed that it was not it that released the dark green spiritual light just now.
He didn't have time to think about why the spirit bead had released a dark green aura just now, and at this time, countless small white light clusters had begun to appear around him, and it was obvious that the spirit bead had once again regained its effect of attracting spiritual energy.
This situation was obviously the best for Zhang Peng, but Zhang Peng would never simply think that the dark green aura released by the spirit bead just now was just releasing the aura absorbed by himself after approaching the soil and spirit grass.
He crouched down and carefully examined the verdant and turquoise dragon grass;
"How could there be no change in the slightest, it was clear that the dark green aura of Xiaozhu just now enveloped him completely, it was really strange. ”
After looking at Bailongcao in place for a quarter of an hour, Zhang Peng still didn't find any abnormalities in Bailongcao, and immediately turned around and walked back to the hut without hesitation.
He said to him that it was too dangerous to stand in the medicine garden with the mysterious spirit bead, and if it weren't for the fact that what happened tonight was too bizarre and unexpected, he would never have stood in the medicine garden with the bead. Zhang Peng secretly decided in his heart that he would never take the mysterious spirit bead to make such a dangerous move as tonight in the future, and the matter of the mysterious spirit bead could only be known by himself
The night passed quickly, and Zhang Peng ran the exercises as usual to check his progress, and after a while, the corners of his mouth were slightly grinned, and a smile of satisfaction appeared on his face.
As soon as he put away the mysterious spirit bead, he planned to clean it first, but he still didn't hold back his curiosity and walked slowly towards the outside of the hut.
In his heart, he never believed that the scene he had seen last night was just bizarre and had no effect. And the mysterious spirit bead in the storage bag that was inadvertently obtained from the mysterious cave of Xishan Ridge only has the effect of attracting aura.
As soon as I walked out of the house, a strong medicinal fragrance came to my nose.
"Hey, what's going on, aren't all the hundred-year-old herbs in the east of the medicine garden, how can there be the taste of more than a hundred-year-old herbs here?"
Zhang Peng was stunned, whispered in a low voice, and then walked quickly to the location of the hundred dragon grass yesterday;
Is this still the Bailong grass from last night? Zhang Peng couldn't help but ask himself in his heart, and then pinched himself with his hand, and after a burst of pain, Zhang Peng finally determined that this was not an illusion, but a real one.
I saw that the leaves of the hundred dragon grass had all turned purple, and a small purple flower that had completed its bloom opened at the top, and a round golden bead was lying quietly in the center of the stamen. ”
"Haha, isn't this a hundred-year-old bailong grass? Whether it is the shape, color, or medicinal fragrance, it is exactly the same as the hundred-year-old bailong grass that the medicine garden handed in in the past, and it has developed this time. ”
Zhang Peng couldn't help laughing in the medicine garden, and it took a cup of tea to hold back the excitement in his heart and stop.
As far as medicinal herbs are concerned, whether it is an ordinary herb in the secular world or a rare spiritual herb in the immortal cultivation world, the value of the medicinal herb is all above the year of the medicinal material. The longer the vintage, the greater the value. According to the records of the sect's classics, if the medicinal age of the herb reaches more than five hundred years, even those monks in the Dan stage who see the head of the dragon and do not see the end will also flock to it and fight desperately. It can be seen that the value of medicinal materials with a long age is high.
Although Zhang Peng still doesn't know if he can superimpose the medicinal age of medicinal materials through the mysterious spirit bead, just being able to provide him with spiritual energy and quickly raise medicinal materials to more than a hundred years of medicinal age at will is enough for him to quickly move towards the foundation building period, how can this not make him lose his temper so much. I believe that if it were any other person, the situation would not be much better than him.
