Chapter 27: The Pharmacist Returns (text)
Ten days later, Wu Yan stood at the entrance of the Yunhai Cave with a grim face, with an extremely satisfied expression on his face. There are now earth-shaking changes in the Yunhai Cave.
Near the entrance to the cave to the south, there is a newly opened medicine field. The area of the medicine field occupies half of the entire cave, which is exactly the area where light can be rayed into the cave entrance on the south side.
The soil of this medicinal field has been brought up from below for the past ten days. In the southernmost part of the medicine field, more than a dozen herbs are growing happily, quietly emitting a verdant glow in the sun. Next to these dozen herbs, there are two hydrangeas plants. However, these two hydrangeas are only in the growth stage, and they were specially transplanted from the medicine field.
The rest of the medicine field was also planted by Wu Yan with the herb seeds stolen from the pharmacist Feng's study. With the help of that mysterious green soil, these seeds have now sprouted into seedlings.
Wu Yan was not in a hurry to ripen these herbs with that green soil now. Until the danger of sealing the pharmacist is solved, he will never do such a stupid thing that may reveal his secrets.
The small stove and the mysterious green soil were the biggest secrets in his heart, and they must not be known to anyone. The little stove was now hidden by him in a secret little hole he had dug in this cave. The mysterious green soil, and the eight Purple Yang Pills that were not used for the time being were also hidden in it.
The entrance of Yunhai Cave is now completely different from what it used to be. In ten days, he used the things he bought to arrange the two entrances to the north and south like the forbidden land of death. He is convinced that even if a master like Li Ruoxu wants to break in, he will have to pay a great price.
After doing this, Wu Yan quietly returned to the bottom of the valley, washed and cleaned up, and returned to the stone house that the pharmacist had prepared for him.
Wu Yan sat cross-legged in the stone house, took out a Ziyang Pill from his arms, swallowed it, and began to meditate and practice the nameless mantra.
In these ten days, he finally figured out the efficacy of Ziyang Pill. This Ziyang Pill is actually very beneficial to his current cultivation. The energy flow that could not change for a long time had actually grown a lot stronger in the past ten days because of swallowing two Purple Yang Pills one after another.
The first Ziyang Pill helped him open up the fourth meridian smoothly, allowing him to break through the third layer of the nameless mantra in one fell swoop and enter the fourth layer realm.
Five days ago, he had taken the second Ziyang Pill. This second Ziyang Pill not only allowed him to completely stabilize his fourth-layer realm, but also helped him enter the middle stage of the fourth-layer realm in one fell swoop.
By mistake, he couldn't imagine that he could prepare a Ziyang Pill that could improve his cultivation, and Wu Yan was also very happy about this, so he simply dug up the other two hydrangeas planted by the pharmacist in the medicine field at once and transplanted them in the Yunhai Cave.
Wu Yan sat cross-legged on the stone bed, quietly feeling a fiery air flow scurrying in his body. He wasn't worried at all. He knew that this fiery air flow was the medicinal power emitted by the Ziyang Pill.
This medicinal power was very ferocious, constantly rampage through his body, destroying his meridians. The process is painful. Wu Yan gritted his teeth and quietly endured this painful torture.
He knew that the rewards and gains that came after the pain were incomparably rich.
Half a day passed slowly, and the pain gradually became numb, and a little bit of cool feeling wandered around the body. Wu Yan began to follow the fourth layer of the heart method, slowly absorbing and refining this bit of energy flow, allowing them to gather together and return to the dantian.
......
At this time, in a guest room of the Gushan Inn in Gushan Town, Pharmacist Feng sat on the bed with a pale face. He looked even older and haggard than he had been half a year ago. He had an unconcealed look of wind and dust on him. Standing next to the bed, an old man in brocade with a disgraced face cautiously peeked at the pharmacist who closed his eyes and pondered.
This old man in brocade, if Wu Yan was here, he would definitely be able to recognize him, he was the one who was on the border of Qinggu and Gu counties, and the unlucky one who met the pharmacist and the leopard of the Broken Knife Hall and the shopkeeper of the family planning medicine shop.
He Quan looked pale and worried now, especially when he found that the old man in front of him, who controlled his life and death, still had irrepressible anger on his face, his heart was even more uneasy.
Hubao looks a little better than him, except for his face is a little worse, it hasn't changed much compared to half a year ago.
"Senior, junior received your order, in the past six months, he has been non-stop, scattered most of his family wealth, and almost bought out the medicinal materials in the pharmacies in several neighboring counties, and finally fulfilled his mission, and prepared all the medicinal materials you wanted, and loaded them on the two big carts outside, you see?" He Quan cautiously bowed his hand to the pharmacist Feng.
Pharmacist Feng raised his eyelids, and after a sigh, there was no movement. Izumi chuckled in his heart, with a look of disappointment on his face, but he didn't dare to ask and stepped aside.
Hubao walked to the front, arched his hand to the pharmacist Feng, respectfully handed over a large envelope, and said: "Senior, this is all the core secrets that the villain has collected in the past six months about the inside of the Broken Knife Hall, please take a look at it." ”
Pharmacist Feng still raised his eyelids, sighed, coughed again, and said vaguely: "You two, you are doing well, put it down." ”
Hubao put the big envelope on the small table in front of the pharmacist, frowned, and retreated. Pharmacist Feng's face was very bad, and the two of them didn't dare to speak much, and stood aside with big eyes.
After a long time, Pharmacist Feng's face seemed to be a little better, he raised his eyelids, and saw that the two of them were still standing in the room, so he whispered unhappily: "If there is nothing to do, you can retreat." ”
"But, senior, the antidote to the heart rotten pill ......" Hequan and Hubao both looked at each other, gritted their teeth, and at the same time arched their hands to the pharmacist, and finally said what they planned in their hearts.
"Hmph, are you afraid of dying? Don't worry, the old man's rotten heart pill will only take a year to attack. Now there is still half a year before the attack, what are you afraid of?"
"But, senior, we have done everything according to your instructions, and we ask our seniors to give us an antidote. ”
"Well, how can people not be afraid of death?" Pharmacist Feng smiled self-deprecatingly, frowned and thought for a while, his expression moved, and said: "I didn't bring the antidote with me, so let's do it, two months later, you come here again, and I will give you the antidote." But before I do that, I want you to do one thing each. ”
When the two of them heard this, their faces changed. It could be seen that after the two of them heard the words of the pharmacist Feng, they both had a trace of anger. At the beginning, as long as he could follow the instructions of the pharmacist and do the things he arranged, he would be able to get the antidote and get rid of the poison of the heart rotten pill on his body. Now, they have already done this matter half a year in advance, but the pharmacist Feng wants to find an excuse to delay giving them the antidote, listening to the meaning of his words, it seems that he wants them to do something. How could they not be angry?
In order to purchase medicinal materials for the pharmacist seal, Hequan spent almost half of his family fortune, and Hubao even risked all kinds of dangers to carefully collect the confidential core information of the Broken Knife Hall. It can be said that both of them have gone through a lot of hardships to get their own things done. Now when you hear this, how can you not be cold and angry?
But now that their lives are in the hands of the pharmacist seal, even if they are angry, how dare they come out.
"Senior, you promised that as long as we can do what you ordered, you will give us the antidote, you are, this is not trustworthy. Hubao seemed to be out of the way, gritting his teeth, and Izumi also nodded desperately on the side.
No matter what the pharmacist said, he was also an old man, how could he not understand their intentions, and sneered when he heard this: "What's the matter?
"Don't dare!" the two arched their hands angrily.
"The old man might as well tell you, the old man has an antidote on him now. However, even if the old man gives you the antidote now, he can't completely remove the poison of the Rotten Heart Pill, and he can only suppress the onset of the Rotten Heart Pill a year later. If you can do a good job of what I have arranged next, the old man will think about it, and he will completely remove the poison of the Rotten Heart Pill on your body, how about it?"
The faces of Hequan and Hubao became ugly at the same time, and now they naturally didn't dare to say anything, so they said respectfully at the same time: "Please ask the seniors to order, but I hope the seniors can abide by the agreement this time." ”
"Don't worry, the old man has believed in the way of saints all his life, how can he not be trustworthy? As long as you do things well, the old man will naturally get rid of the poison of the rotten heart pill on your body. Hequan, within two months, you will try to help the old man buy a five-hundred-year-old ginseng, Hubao, you go to Yunzhou City to find out the movements of the Blood Rain Gate and the Dragon and Tiger Gang. I heard that they are going to reach out to Qingxian and Guxian, and you don't want your Broken Knife Hall to be swallowed up by them, right?"
He Quan and Hu Leopard, after listening to the words of the pharmacist Feng, one showed a stunned expression, and the other showed a frightened look.
