Longevity Chart

  Chapter 119 Buying Elixir

   "Then... when will you come over?" Xia Yuan looked over expectantly.

  Knowing that the Seven Star Mushouwen can help him heal his injuries, it feels like he can't wait for a day.

  If it wasn’t for falling asleep when the flying monster came over just now, and that guy flew in the wrong direction again, he must have arrived in the morning...

  Hey, this garbage monster is old and has a bad sense of direction. If he makes a wrong flight next time, he will kill and eat meat!

   "Tomorrow!"

  Wu Yue waved her hand, "It's getting dark now, even if I go there, I can't see clearly! I heard that your college recruited two new nine-veined geniuses this year?"

   "Nothing..." Xia Yuan shook his head hastily.

Wu Yue snorted coldly, "I've confirmed the news, there's no need to hide it... How about this, I also recruited a good student this year, who just turned sixteen, and I'll bring them over tomorrow! You also bring the two Jiumai students here , by the way let them learn from each other!"

   "Discussion?"

  Xia Yuan looked puzzled.

  Wu Yue smiled, "Not bad! If you lose, the two Jiumai students will share one with me from Yingyue Sect..."

   "No!" Xia Yuan shook his head hastily.

  Nine-veined genius, all major sects can't grab it, so let's get one... Are you kidding me!

As if guessing that he would refuse, Wu Yue said: "It doesn't matter, if your students lose, let them come to my Yingyue Sect as guests for a month! And if my students lose, they will stay in your academy for a month ...There should be no problem in this way!"

   "A guest?"

  Xia Yuan frowned, and finally nodded, "Alright, it's a good thing for the two sects to communicate with each other. I just want to see what kind of disciple can make you so confident."

  He believes in Xu Hong's strength. Even a genius in the third grade can be violently beaten, and it is difficult to beat a master on the master list. It is almost impossible to win at the same age!

  Since this is the case, no matter what he asks, just agree!

"it is good!"

  Wu Yue smiled lightly, flicked her sleeves, "See you tomorrow!"

   After finishing speaking, he turned around and left without dragging his feet.

"This girl is still the same as back then, but it's a pity that Yang Mo..." Seeing the disappearing figure of the other party, Xia Yuan shook his head and greeted, his flying monster immediately landed, jumped on the back of the beast, and immediately flew through the air. go.

  Back then, Yang Mo had pursued this Wu Yue, but unfortunately there were some changes, and in the end the two didn't get together, which became the regret in the hearts of countless people.

  Of course, it is a good thing for Hongwu Academy, otherwise, if the two sects of Danyuanzong and Yingyuezong unite, they will be restrained everywhere.

   "It will take a while to fly to the academy, so I just took the opportunity to take a nap..."

   Muttering something, Xia Yuan closed his eyes and fell asleep.

   The monster under him was flying listlessly, when it suddenly saw a soaring goshawk, its eyes lit up, and it immediately chased after it full of excitement.

  …

   At the same time, Wei Ziyang came to Tianyi Auction House again.

   After sitting in the quiet room for less than a quarter of an hour, I saw Mr. Cheng hurried over, entered the room, bowed and clasped his fists.

   "I heard that this friend wants to sell a lot of wooden longevity patterns?"

"good!"

  Wei Ziyang pretended to be a middle-aged man with a dark complexion, making it impossible to see emotions.

   "About how much, and what quality are they?" Old Master Cheng asked.

  Wei Ziyang said: "They are all Hiroki grade, about a thousand pieces in total. If the price you give is reasonable, you can eat it. I don't mind packing it for you to sell."

   "A thousand pieces?"

  Master Cheng's eyes lit up.

   Collecting a thousand wooden longevity grains scattered, the speed is really too slow, I don't know how long it will take to complete, but it is cheap and trouble-free to buy at once, which is naturally what he would like to see most.

  Wei Ziyang looked over, "What price can you possibly offer?"

Mr. Cheng pondered for a while, and said: "An ordinary Guangmu Shouwen plant costs about ten thousand taels of silver... However, different varieties have different prices. Even so, the overall price will not exceed 20 million taels of silver! We Hope, first test the longevity pattern, determine the type and then set the price, don't worry, Tianyi Auction House's price is the most fair, no one will deceive you."

   Hearing that the other party did not deliberately lower the price, which was not much different from what he had inquired before, Wei Ziyang nodded and said, "When can we trade?"

   "This time the auction house is buying for others. How about it? Tomorrow night, I will help you make an appointment with the buyer. How about you meeting and discussing?"

   Master Cheng said.

  Wei Ziyang nodded.

   It just so happened that what Xu Hong told him was also tomorrow night, so it would be most appropriate to meet again tomorrow.

  Determined the procedure of the meeting, no more to say, Wei Ziyang turned and left, not long after he walked out of the auction house, when he came out again from a deserted alley, he had already changed into another appearance.

   As he left, Mr. Cheng's men hurried towards the East Palace.

   Less than half an hour later, the prince appeared in the quiet room of the auction house dressed in black.

   "Someone sold a thousand wood longevity grains in one go?"

  After listening to Uncle Huang's detailed explanation, Cheng Yu frowned.

  Here Dean Xia just threatened them to ask for a thousand wood longevity grains, and in the blink of an eye, someone came to make a move, and no more, no less, it was also a thousand...

   What a coincidence!

   "What is the origin of that person, has the emperor checked it?" Cheng Yu asked after pondering for a while.

   "This is his portrait. I just asked an artist to draw it. The similarity is more than 90%! In addition, I sent someone to follow him, but it disappeared after a short time, and the seven hidden piles were not found."

   Master Cheng said.

   Deliberately postponed the transaction until tomorrow, just to check the origin of the other party. As a result, this guy, like Xu Hong back then, disappeared completely after entering an alley, as if he had never appeared at all...

  Cheng Yu took the portrait, without opening it, and handed it to a Shanjun commander behind him, "Go and check it!"

  Shan Jun's figure flickered and disappeared in place.

   Ignoring the other party, Cheng Yu looked again, "How strong is this person?"

   After thinking for a while, Mr. Cheng said: "Unfathomable, at least my cultivation has not seen through it!"

  Cheng Yu's eyes narrowed immediately.

  My uncle, the emperor, has already reached the life-enhancing state. Although he is not too strong, he also has the life-enhancing double foundation-building state.

  With this kind of strength, I don't even know what kind of strength the opponent is. I'm afraid it's a super strong man who is not lower than the foundation establishment level.

  With this kind of cultivation, even in Dan Yuanzong and other places, he can definitely be regarded as an elder.

   After asking a few more questions, and confirming the time to meet tomorrow, Cheng Yu walked out. Not long after standing outside the door, Commander Shan Jun reappeared in front of him.

   "Reporting to His Royal Highness, I have already checked, and there is no such person who has reached the life-enhancing state in Liyuan King City!"

  Liyuan King City has a population of more than ten million. If you search one by one with just one portrait, you can't do it in a month, but you can quickly complete the search for those who are strong in the life-enhancing state.

Cheng Yu seemed to confirm the guess in his heart, waved his hand and said: "There is no need to continue to investigate, it should not be the real face. As for who it is, I will find out when we meet tomorrow. By the way, you tell Cheng Hao to ask him to ask that person Xu Hong, come see me tomorrow night."

   "Yes!" Shan Jun nodded and left again.

  …

   I didn't know that the entire royal city was a little turbulent, so Xu Hong found Elder Xuan Ye who was about to go to bed at this time.

Knowing his intentions, Elder Xuan Ye said: "Among the elders' resources, you can enjoy a 50% to 20% discount on the purchase of pills. Of course, the purchased medicinal materials can only be used by yourself and cannot be sold. Otherwise, not only will you be disqualified from purchasing , will be directly expelled."

  Xu Hong asked curiously: "Is the discount still graded?"

Elder Xuan Ye explained: "Elders also have ranks and meritorious deeds. Except for the dean and vice dean, Elder Hong Yuan, Elder Han Qu, etc., are considered to have the highest authority, and they can all be purchased at a 50% discount. Elder Zhao, Elder Liu Mo, they get 40% off, and further down, ordinary deacon elders get 30% off. As for the new elders, they all get 20% off. Although you only enjoy the treatment of elders, the dean has personally explained , buy medicines, directly at 50% off."

  Xu Hong's eyes lit up immediately.

  It seems that his "elder treatment" was not in vain, and it was too useful at critical moments.

   "Well, I wonder what medicinal materials you want to buy?" Elder Xuan Ye looked over with a smile.

  Xu Hongdao: "I want to buy some qi invigorating pills!"

Elder Xuan Ye said: "Although Qi Bu Pill is not high-level among the first-grade pills, there are many people who use it. If you buy it with silver taels, it is about one hundred thousand taels. Moreover, every elder, every month There are only two purchase shares, so you can’t buy more.”

   "Two?" Xu Hong frowned.

  His lifespan is exhausted too quickly, dozens or even hundreds of coins are not too many, what are two enough for?

Seeing his doubts, Elder Xuan Ye said: "It's not easy to refine the qi pill. Even I can refine at most seven or eight pills a month. Ordinary pill pharmacists can successfully refine two or three pills a month." Not bad! After all, everyone is not a super genius like Pill Master Yang..."

   "You mean Senior Brother Yang Mo?" Xu Hong looked over.

Elder Xuan Ye nodded, "Well, he is a few hundred miles away from the Yuan Dynasty, a rare medicine wizard, and he has reached the peak of the longevity realm at the age of eighty. It is said that he can refine 30 Qi-invigorating pills in a month. , The strength of the method, the speed of refining medicine, is amazing! I have the honor to see him practice medicine, it is indeed uncanny and unpredictable!"

  Elder Xuan Ye has been to Jiyuan City, and knows the relationship between the person in front of him and Yang Mo.

  Xu Hong scratched his head.

   It seems... He has also seen the other party make medicine. The alchemy furnace is very good, but he can't even prepare a gas-increasing liquid. Is this called unfathomable?

  Of course, I have only seen the other party prepare the liquid medicine, but I have never seen it refining the elixir. Perhaps...in this respect, it is indeed very strong.

   "If you want to buy it, I will take you to the [Ellite Garden] right now. I heard from Elder Hong Yuan that you have a good talent for elixir. I just went there to see how other people make alchemy, so as to lay the foundation for future study."

   Elder Xuan Ye said.

  The Medicinal Medicine Garden, not far from the Vitality Garden, is a tall and spacious building. It not only sells medicinal pills, but also a place for students to learn alchemy. It is one of the most important places in Hongwu College.

   Entering it, you can immediately see dozens of rooms separated from the wide hall. Inside each room, there is a cauldron, with true energy surging and flames tumbling, surrounded by people, including teachers and students.

"These are all students who are talented in pills. They are learning alchemy from the teacher, and they are also trying. However... no more than 20 people can successfully refine pills every year, and no more than two can refine pills. ..."

  Elder Xuan Ye introduced.

"so little?"

  Xu Hong looked at the many rooms. There were as many as two or three hundred students. With so many people, there were no more than two who could refine the elixir... Isn't the probability only 1%?

  The key... Those who can come to learn have all tested their talents.

  Elder Xuan Ye showed emotion in his eyes, and said: "The profession of alchemist is originally for thousands of troops to cross the single-plank bridge. It is because of this that it is so precious. Otherwise, why is it called the first profession in the world?"

  Xu Hong was silent.

  I heard Senior Brother Yang Mo say how high a pharmacist's status is, but I haven't experienced it personally, and I don't think so. Now, it seems that it is indeed extraordinary.

   Continue to look around the room.

  Some are teachers refining medicine, some are students trying.

  Xu Hong had a strange look on his face.

  Whether the student or the teacher, when refining pills, they are trying to adapt to the longevity pattern on the furnace. If there is a slight lack of energy, the pattern will go wrong, which will lead to the destruction of the medicinal materials.

   It's like taming wild horses. Many people can tame one or two of them, but they can tame dozens of them at once.

   No wonder refining medicine is complicated, fighting wits and bravery with Shou Wen, once refining one furnace, the energy is almost exhausted, if you want to continue to the next furnace, it is difficult to complete without recovering for a few days.

   "See it? The most difficult part of pill refining is to control the longevity pattern. When you start learning in the future, you will understand how much energy is consumed..."

   While the two were talking, they came to the window where the pill was sold.

  It is also sold to students here, but they are all pills, pills and the like. Students are not eligible to buy them unless they have completed a certain task or have certain meritorious service.

  For example, if you get the top three in the list of masters, you are eligible to buy a pill, and it is only limited to Qi Bu Dan and the like, and you are not eligible to buy a first-grade top-level pill like Duotian Pill.

  Of course, the college is already very lenient towards its own students. It is very difficult for outsiders to buy pills. Because of this, every pill that flows into the market will cause countless people to go crazy.

   "Hello, teacher, I want to buy two qi invigorating pills!"

   Xu Hong smiled.

   "Qi Bu Pill?"

  The teacher is a young man in his 30s. He was stunned for a moment, and then there was a trace of hesitation on his face, "This... I may want to check your purchase qualifications. Excuse me... Do you have merit talismans or purchase tokens?"

   "Amulet of Merit?"

   Dazed for a moment, Xu Hong shook his head, "No, but there are several tokens and the like, which one can be used..."

   After speaking, he flipped his wrist, and a few tokens fell on the table.

   "Principal Xia's token, Dean Han's token, Elder Hong's token... and Dan Yuanzong's golden order? This..."

  The teacher froze in place, his eyes widened, and he was speechless.
