Chapter 214 The feeling of a good thunder
But Chen Guhong had a brilliant mind, and he could see that Xue Taoyuan was unwilling to mention it. So he thought, "Let's talk about it when you get more familiar with it later."
Immediately, Xue Taoyuan and Chen Guhong walked into the shop that purchased medicinal materials.
The shop is quite big, and the sign is also a "best elixir". There are several shopkeepers in the shop, but they are all men. There are also several customers in the shop, all of whom are covered in wind and frosty faces, looking dusty.
There was still a subtle smell of blood coming from my body.
Needless to say, they were all cultivators who fought back from outside. The shopkeepers were busy identifying a bunch of things, including some plant medicinal materials, some monster bones, gallbladders and other medicinal materials.
"Teacher Xue."
"Teacher Xue."
When Xue Taoyuan came in, no matter how many shopkeepers or guests showed respectful expressions, they saluted respectfully. No matter who they were, they were unwilling to offend an alchemy apprentice. The shopkeepers were afraid of losing their jobs, and the medicines brought by the guests were identified by the alchemy apprentice, which can be said to have the power of life and death.
All in all, it's very popular everywhere.
Facing these people, Xue Taoyuan was a little reserved and nodded lightly. Then, he introduced Chen Guhong to everyone. He heard that he was another teacher, and the guests and shopkeepers called him "Teacher Chen" and did not dare to underestimate Chen Guhong's early cultivation level at all.
As an alchemy apprentice, communication is never a topic.
They seemed to be white cranes, always maintaining a higher attitude than everyone else. Therefore, after only a light introduction, Xue Taoyuan taught Chen Guhong to begin identifying medicinal materials.
If you want to identify medicinal materials, you have to read the book first. Books in the Immortal Cultivation World are also special. The ring on Xue Taoyuan's hand shone with a flash, then took out a jade piece and smiled at Chen Guhong: "Come on. First, put the Taoist practice into the jade piece and learn about the 15,000 common first-level medicinal materials in our Immortal Cultivation World."
"Okay." Chen Guhong nodded, took the jade tablets, and then entered the Taoist craft. For him, who is extremely intelligent, remembering that these more than 5,000 first-class medicinal herbs are just a matter of the blink of an eye.
Then Chen Guhong returned the jade tablet to Xue Taoyuan. Xue Taoyuan was not surprised by the intelligence of this junior brother. Seeing this, he took back the jade tablet and began to carefully teach Chen Guhong to identify the medicinal materials.
It starts with the medicinal materials sold by those customers.
Chen Guhong originally thought that life would be just like this, and he used an alchemy apprentice to identify medicinal materials, then accumulate experience, and become an alchemist. By the way, he might have to ask why Xue Taoyuan has been five years and is still identifying medicinal materials.
But he still underestimated the influence of the alchemy apprentice. Not long after, the incident of becoming an alchemy apprentice spread like wildfire, and people found out where his house was.
From time to time, small families or individual immortal cultivators come to visit. There are absolutely no empty-handed people in their hands. They are all fairy stones, or all kinds of precious things.
Some people even gave their daughters to Chen Guhong as concubines.
To use a rustic sentence, it means waving a lot of money and currying favor with Chen Guhong. But Chen Guhong's temperament is still a bit scholarly. He will not receive any reward without merit.
All filial piety with various purposes are rude to them. But this indifference cannot stop the enthusiasm of these people. Maybe he also thought, "Is this alchemy apprentice who has a high vision and looks down on the gifts we give?"
Those small families or individual immortal cultivators have raised their prices one after another. Whether it is immortal stones or expensive things, they have doubled.
Even if I send my daughter, someone will give my sister flowers.
His new home in Guiyuan City was almost broken through the threshold. Chen Guhong was really extraordinary, so he left Dabai, Xiaoqing, and Gao Zhuang to practice in the new home.
He called Xue Taoyuan and took Yuanyuan to the shop where he bought medicinal materials. This made him much quieter, but occasionally Chen Guhong would send Yuanyuan out to buy ingredients because he knew that this was the maid of the Alchemy Apprentice, and someone expressed his affection for Yuanyuan.
The round ears become uneasy, so I can't complain.
In short, this is how life comes. Chen Guhong is learning to identify medicinal materials, receiving immortal stones and elixirs as monthly salary, and flying with Yuanyuan, Gaozhuang, Dabai and Xiaoqing.
I started to eat and drink spicy food.
The soul in his mind was finally balanced because of this large amount of property. There was no need to absorb the Taoist practices in his body to replenish the soul.
His Taoist practice that he had not made in three years began to grow slowly again, which is gratifying.
Soon, Chen Guhong stayed in the shop where he purchased medicinal materials for more than half a year. Although his cultivation was still in the early stage of thick soil, he was already a powerful person among them. He had accumulated a huge Taoist practice and could enter the middle stage of thick soil at any time.
Chen Guhong learned more than 15,000 common first-grade medicinal materials. It was not slow, but because there were only more than 1,000 common first-grade medicinal materials produced in Guiyuan Xiancheng.
Therefore, Chen Guhong became absent-minded. In the past six months, his relationship with Xue Taoyuan has become closer and more familiar with him.
Cultivators can avoid eating grains, but like Chen Guhong, there are many people who have the desire to eat. Therefore, there are also taverns in the city. After get off work that day, Chen Guhong invited Xue Taoyuan to have dinner together. After three rounds of wine, Chen Guhong asked Xue Taoyuan: "Senior brother, I have been here for half a year, and the identification of medicinal materials is almost done. When can I learn alchemy methods with the teacher?"
Xue Taoyuan didn't want to mention the bitterness in his heart at first. But after all, he had been with Chen Guhong for half a year and had been drinking for three more times, which was a bit intoxicating. Xue Taoyuan showed bitterness and said, "I remember I told you that I have been learning to identify medicinal materials for five years?"
"Remember." Chen Guhong nodded.
"Alchemy requires "elixir recipes". The alchemy recipe records the ration of medicinal materials and the procedures for alchemy. This is called the alchemy method. The teacher does not intend to teach me the alchemy method. He just plans to ask me as his assistant to help identify the medicinal materials." Xue Taoyuan expressed the bitterness in his heart through the alcohol.
"How could this happen?" Chen Guhong was surprised, very unbelievable that Jin Danchen would do this if he had a good impression of him.
"If you can pass the alchemy apprentice test, you are qualified to become a first-level alchemist, and this qualification is very high. Basically, 70% or 80% of people can do it. But the number of first-level alchemists is still not large. That's because these first-level alchemists hide this trick. There is a folk saying, "Teaching the apprentice and starving the master to death." In order to maintain his status and reduce the number of first-level alchemists, he will not teach us."
Xue Taoyuan shook his head and sighed.
"This kind of thing actually happens." Chen Guhongchu felt that it was a fantasy, but it makes sense to think about it carefully. A first-level alchemist is so respected that if he grabs a lot of things, he will not be able to enjoy the supreme glory.
No wonder those first-level alchemists have hidden such a skill.
"But won't we never have the chance to become a first-level alchemist?" Chen Guhong scratched his head and felt in trouble.
"Yes, learn secretly." Xue Taoyuan said.
"Study secretly?" Chen Guhong's face moved.
"In the past five years, many times, the teacher has called me over and told me to observe the process of practicing the three elixirs: Body Refining Pills, Practicing Pills, and Mingshen Pills. Because if you want to become a first-level alchemist, at least you have to know how to practice these three first-level elixirs. So we have the qualifications to learn secretly."
