Zhang Yan walked into the room and looked left and right in the room, there was a wooden bed in the corner of the wall, on which was neatly stacked a somewhat worn quilt, but it was quite neat, and in front of the wooden bed was a square wooden table and two crooked wooden chairs.

On the other side of the room, a bookshelf covered with a thick layer of dust sits a few scattered books, and a worn futon lies underneath the shelf.

Just a few things that make the house look very shabby.

Zhang Yan didn't care about the simplicity of the room at all, untied the umbrella behind him and put it on the wooden table, and the "Qingling Gong" used for cultivation was also thrown aside, and then lay on the bed with his head on his hands.

Looking at the roof covered with cobwebs, Zhang Yan was a little homesick at this time, remembering that when he looked up at the roof at home, he would hear his sister's crying, as well as the sound of his father "clicking" his pipe and his mother's sigh, but now only he was left.

His thoughts were wandering, Zhang Yan felt a little confused, although the words of the young man surnamed Bai made him really understand what the so-called cultivation of immortals was, but they also shattered the beautiful illusions that he had been hiding deep in his heart, and made him feel dazed and desperate, he needed to straighten out everything that had happened recently, and he felt that he seemed to have missed something important.

When the night was dark, Zhang Yan still didn't feel a trace of sleepiness, so he just lay quietly on the bed with his eyes open and stayed until dawn the next day.

This morning, from the stone steps of Elder Hu's alchemy hall, a fat young man walked down, with a pair of small eyes with dark circles squinting slightly, with a smile on his face, humming a tune that was not in tune all at once, and his body that looked a little chubby swayed left and right towards the medicine garden in the valley.

The young man who came was none other than Elder Hu's alchemy boy.

Yesterday, after Elder Hu accepted him back to the main hall, Elder Hu also privately said that although he was not a master and apprentice, he could teach him to cultivate a little in the future.

At this moment, he still had this cloth bag hanging softly on his back, this was Elder Hu asked him to collect medicine, the first time he collected medicine, he was very excited, and jumped up early.

Tuesday Tiger wants to collect medicine, according to the rules, you have to inform Zhang Yan, otherwise when the time comes, there will be no elixir and the whereabouts are unknown, but they can't afford it, these elixirs are all for those elders and genius disciples in the door.

When I walked to Zhang Yan's residence, the door was still closed, and the house was quiet.

"Why can this man sleep better than me......" Tuesday Tiger muttered.

"Senior Brother Zhang, wake up, it's time to get up!" Tuesday Tiger didn't care, and shouted in a loud voice.

And Zhang Yan didn't sleep at all, the night passed, still staring at a pair of panda eyes and lying quietly, he had already heard the humming sound of the tiger in the distance, but he didn't get up.

After hearing the muttering and screaming of the Tiger on Tuesday, a relieved smile suddenly appeared on the face that had been silent and confused, and one rolled over and walked out.

"I said Zhou Fatty, what are you shouting at me early in the morning, staring at a pair of panda eyes?" Zhang Yan opened the door and saw a pair of red and swollen eyes on Tuesday Hu's round face, and said hehe.

"Senior Brother Zhang, according to the rules for beginners, you have to call me Senior Brother, and besides, I'm not called fat, this is enough for a man! Hey, wasn't Senior Brother still sleeping just now, why are the circles under his eyes dark?"

"What are you doing here early in the morning?" Zhang Yan ignored him, walked out and stretched out to the sky and asked.

"Of course, it's to pick elixir for Elder Hu. Tuesday Hu raised the bag in his hand, and then, as if he remembered something, he took out a small white bottle from his arms, and said, "By the way, Elder Hu asked me to bring you ten Bigu Dan and eat one, but there is no hunger for half a month, and when I run out, I will get you again." ”

"Really?"

Zhang Yan hurriedly took it excitedly and poured out one, the mellow elixir that looked slightly pale green, and also faintly exuded the fragrance of medicine.

This is the first time Zhang Yan has seen the real pill, and Zhang Yan also knows that the Dao Bigu Dan, as long as the silver leaf grass is the main flavor medicine, supplemented by Polo leaves and seven leaves, it can be refined, Ouyang Fu has taught the basic Dan Dao for many years, he also remembers seven, seven, eighty, eight, and this Bigu Dan is one of them.

Seeing Zhang Yan's performance, Tuesday Tiger was proud, and he also felt a sense of satisfaction in his heart, and said, "Senior brother, take me to the medicine garden to pick the elixir now, it's not good for Elder Hu to blame it when it's too late." ”

Zhang Yan retracted his thoughts, put away the Bigu Dan, and walked towards the medicine garden with Tuesday Tiger.

Zhang Yan just lay down all night, and he really didn't take a good look at what elixir there was in the medicine garden, and now he went to take a look.

The medicine garden is quite large, located in the center of the valley, and the different kinds of elixirs in it are divided into pieces, growing vigorous, taking a deep breath, a coolness instantly spreads to the limbs, and the whole person is immediately refreshed.

At this time, Zhou Zhou Hu took out a copy of the "Atlas of Elixirs" from his arms, and then he already held a jade knife in his hand, and then began to pick the elixir that Elder Hu needed.

Looking at the posture of the tiger picking the elixir on Tuesday was very standardized, although it was still a little clumsy, but Zhang Yan could see that it should have been taught to him by Elder Hu temporarily, and it was not too difficult to pick the elixir.

Zhang Yan walked around the medicine garden, and on the way, he happened to see the elixir needed for the refining of the Bigu Pill, and then continued to walk, and saw a few herbs for refining the Heart Protector Pill and the Corpse Insect Pill in order, which made him faintly excited in his heart, and when he walked to the middle of the medicine garden, he stopped suddenly.

Zhang Yan stared at the several medicinal fields next to him, where there were a few medicinal herbs with only three leaves of different colors, and on the other side, there was a leaf curled in a misty elixir, and in the other medicine field, there were several elixirs hanging between the leaves of a few fiery red thumb-sized fruits.

Isn't this a samin and a forest flower and a centrifugal fruit?

This is the three elixirs for refining and refining qi dispersion, Master once said that this kind of elixir is one of the most effective pills for the growth of the early cultivation of low-level cultivators, as for the increase of late-stage cultivation, there is also a kind of elixir called Qi Induction Pill, as long as the three-flavor elixir on the top is added to an elixir called Monroe Flower, it can be refined, and now Zhang Yan thinks about it, the early stage of the low-level cultivators that Master said at the beginning should be the early stage of the Qi refining period.

Zhang Que was overjoyed in his heart, and couldn't help but speed up his pace, and finally, on the medicine field closest to the center of the medicine garden, Zhang Que saw the Monroe flowers with dew rolling on the leaves, which made him almost want to jump up with excitement.

But soon Zhang Yan's excitement disappeared, and he suddenly thought that the elixirs in this medicine garden were all sectarian, and he didn't think that he would pick them quietly and not find them, but he was too excited.

sighed, continued to walk around, and found that most of the elixirs he didn't know, especially the ones in the center, at a glance at the color and appearance, they must be very high-grade elixirs, and he didn't dare to move in the slightest.

So he walked back, and at this moment, the tiger had already picked the elixir he needed.

"Senior Brother Zhang, how does it feel to take care of this medicine garden?" the two walked outside, and Tuesday Tiger asked casually.

"What else? I can't move my hands, and I can't eat. Zhang Yan made a helpless look.

"By the way, Fat Zhou, do me a favor. Zhang Yan suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly grabbed the tiger on Tuesday.

"What's the matter? As long as you don't want me to steal Elder Hu's elixir, if you can help, I will definitely do my best. Tuesday Tiger looked at Zhang Yan vigilantly, but said very generously.

"Fat Zhou, do you think I'm that kind of person?" Zhang Yan was angry and said with a smile, "I just need a talisman pen and some yellow paper, of course, the more yellow paper, the better, it's best to get some ink, how about it?"

"Why do you want these things? Could it be that you want to draw peace charms or exorcism charms like those fake Taoist priests in the world?" Tuesday Tiger was stunned when he heard this, and looked at Zhang Yan suspiciously, but when he saw Zhang Yan spread his hands like that, he knew that the other party didn't want to say it, and he didn't ask, and said, "Yes, I'll find a chance to ask Elder Hu when I go back, if I can do it, I'll get you some and go." ”

Tuesday Tiger hung the bag containing the elixir on his shoulder again, whistled, and waved his hand with his back to Zhang Yan, and his fat body swayed from side to side towards the outside of the valley.

Zhang Yan watched Tuesday Tiger walk away, and the whole person gradually calmed down.

He stayed up all night, thinking all night, and finally realized that it was his own problem, that he couldn't accept the reality in front of him.

The immortal who had been dreaming of since childhood was just a dream of his own fantasy, thinking of the five years of hard cultivation he had followed his master, and finally understood that he had just come to another bumpy road at the moment, just one step closer to the immortal.

Zhang Yan stood quietly at the gate of the Elixir Garden, looking at the north, and remembered the last words that the master let him remember: Heaven and earth are ruthless, take all things as dogs, cultivators, should go against the sky, want to live forever, the three thousand avenues can be destroyed!

Zhang Yan did not show excitement or a proud look on his face, but smiled calmly.

It's time to take a good look at that "Qinglinggong". Zhang Yan thought in his heart and walked towards the house.
