Once the grandfather and grandson recognized each other, the rest of the matter became much easier. The genius doctor, who was about to leave, carefully examined Xiao Luocheng's meridians, and then said with a serious face: "After such a toss, it will be more troublesome to repair. Go call the group of people who brought the medicine before, I need to make the medicine again."
"I am the chief elder of the Alchemy Hall. I am most familiar with all kinds of medicinal materials in the sect. Please just give me your instructions." Xiao Baicao bowed. His intention was obvious. He wanted to be an "assistant" here, so that he could witness the medical skills of this genius doctor with his own eyes, and maybe even get some advice from him.
“Yes.” Yun Che nodded. “Then remember this… three ounces of forty-year-old Purple Heart Mist Flower Wood, one piece of thirty-six-year-old Blood Sunflower Essence, one piece of red spirit jade with a purity of more than nine points, two pieces of one hundred and eighty-year-old Ice and Snow Ginseng, and three pieces of twelve-year-old Burning Orchid…”
Yun Che named sixteen kinds of medicinal herbs in one breath. Every time he mentioned one, Xiao Baicao would be stunned for a moment. When Yun Che finished, he was completely confused. He didn't know whether to nod or not. Although these medicinal herbs were precious, he could easily take them out with his accumulation over the years. But the problem was that all the herbs Yun Che wanted had specific years specified.
Seeing Xiao Baicao standing there blankly, Yun Che narrowed his eyes and said, “Why? These are not rare items. For a sect that has existed for more than a thousand years, they should be able to produce these.”
"Of course we can take it out." Xiao Baicao said quickly: "It's just that this year..."
“Oh! I almost forgot to remind you of this.” Yun Che’s expression became serious, and he said earnestly: “The herbs I just asked for must not have any deviation in age… Well, if you really can’t find them, a deviation of one or two years is barely acceptable, but the effect will be much worse. Different years of herbs may seem to be the same, but even a difference of one month will result in a considerable difference in the aura of heaven and earth that they bear. High-level medicine refining has extremely strict requirements on the age of herbs. Those rare herbs that are extremely difficult to refine have even stricter requirements on the month of the herbs. Go quickly.”
Yun Che's nonsense made Xiao Baicao stunned. He thought to himself that this evil-hearted saint was just at a different level. His requirements for medicinal materials were so strict. In comparison, he was just a mediocre doctor. He bowed slightly and said with a guilty look, "I will remember your teachings... But, although I know a little about the art of collecting and refining herbs, and I am familiar with the medicinal materials stored in the sect, I have no idea how to identify the age of the medicinal materials..."
Not to mention him, even Xiao Tiannan beside him was stunned... The herbs used had to be accurate to the year, who the hell could recognize it! Thousands of years old, hundreds of years old, and more than ten years old were easy to recognize, but aren't more than ten years old and several decades old the same? Not to mention the accurate year.
Yun Che’s eyes widened and he frowned, “Aren’t you claiming to be the chief elder of this sect’s medicine hall? How come you don’t even know the most basic attainments in the way of medicine?”
Xiao Baicao lowered his head and smiled bitterly, "Senior, you are a great medical expert on this continent. I can never compare with you. If the time span is long enough, I can still barely identify it, but if it is accurate to a year or even a few months, I really can't do it."
Yun Che thought for a moment and stood up: “Oh, whatever, I’ll go get it myself…” After he finished speaking, he paused and waved his hand: “Oh, forget it. The place where a sect stores medicinal materials must be the most important place in the sect. Even few people in the sect are qualified to enter, let alone outsiders. I still understand this rule…”
Originally, Xiao Tiannan instinctively resisted the divine doctor's suggestion to go to the sect's treasure house in person. Because the sect's treasure house is one of the sect's largest secret places, and only five people in the branch sect are qualified to enter. There are two keys to the treasure house, one is on Xiao Baicao and the other is on Xiao Tiannan. But after hearing what Yun Che said, his resistance disappeared without a trace. He thought to himself, this person is the evil heart saint! What realm is that! The treasures in his treasure house are probably no different from a pile of garbage in his eyes. Moreover, he went to the treasure house to save Xiao Luocheng... Moreover, he is worthy of being a master, and he is so respectful to his own small sect. As expected, the style of a master is admirable.
He immediately said, "No, no! Senior, you are too polite. Although the treasure house is an important place in the sect, it is only for the protection of villains. Senior is such a great man, how could he covet the things of a small branch of our sect. Besides, my son Luo Cheng just worshipped you as his godfather, so he and my sect have become a family. Since we are a family, and for my son Luo Cheng, there is no harm in entering my treasure house."
"Yes, yes." Xiao Baicao also said, "I am incompetent. If you don't go in person, I guess we won't be able to collect all the herbs by tomorrow. Not only will you wait in vain, but you will also delay the young master's injury."
The treasure house was a key place. In the past, even elders had to get in with Xiao Tiannan's approval and Xiao Baicao's permission. This was the first time that the two of them begged an outsider to enter the treasure house, and they didn't feel awkward or inappropriate at all... After all, he was an evil-hearted saint, and entering your treasure house meant that he respected you.
Yun Che pretended to think for a while and nodded: “Alright. However, although I am somewhat grateful for your trust in me, there is one thing you must remember: You should always be on guard against others! I have only been in your sect for one day, but you let me enter your treasure house. Although it is for my grandson’s illness, it is indeed too reckless and hasty! How about this, Baicao, you go with me and watch me get the medicine the whole time... In addition, although I have lived for hundreds of years, I have not cultivated any profound strength. I am only in the entry into the profound realm. I don’t carry any space rings on my body. Xiao Zong’s profound strength can tell. I say this to reassure you, and I will also be at ease.”
Entering the Profound Realm, without a spatial ring... it meant that it was impossible for him to steal anything from the treasure house. Even if he did, it was impossible for him to not be discovered with his low Profound Power, let alone escape. After hearing these words, Xiao Tiannan and Xiao Baicao were deeply moved, and they admired the noble character of this genius doctor. Xiao Tiannan was moved and said, "Although this is just our first acquaintance, my admiration and gratitude for you is greater than anyone else in my life. Even if I don't believe in myself, I will not disbelieve you..."
"No need to say more! Baicao, you must follow me throughout the whole process and you are not allowed to leave me within three steps. Although I have been crazy at times in my life, I am also clean and innocent, and I will not allow any stain. My grandson's injury cannot be delayed any longer, go now."
“Yes, yes!” Xiao Baicao responded, and then took Yun Che straight to the branch sect’s treasure house.
As soon as Xiao Baicao and the divine doctor left, Xiao Tiannan sat down beside Xiao Luocheng's bed. Seeing Xiao Luocheng's miserable appearance, he was no longer worried. Instead, he smiled: "Luocheng! This time, you have to 'thank' that Yun Che! Do you know who this divine doctor is? Just telling you is enough to scare you! He can be said to be the number one divine doctor in Tianxuan Continent! Although he has no sect or school, he has saved countless super strong people in his life. The number of people who owe him favors and want to curry favor with him is definitely not weaker than any sect in Cangfeng Continent! If you recognize him as your godfather, he will naturally support you in the future. By then, even if you go to the main sect, they will treat you as a treasure! Because if you can have a good relationship with this evil-hearted saint, then you will have one more... Oh no! More than one life!"
Xiao Luocheng was also extremely excited. He even felt the pain in his body was refreshing. He clenched his right fist and gritted his teeth, saying, "Don't worry, father. Since I look like his grandson, I will be able to keep Huangfu He under control. As for Yun Che... Hey! I will thank him very much! Father is right. I should take revenge myself. When the time comes, I will cripple his hands and feet, break all his bones, and destroy all his meridians and profound veins! Make his life worse than death!!"
Xiao Luocheng grew up being admired and admired by others, and had never suffered such humiliation and guilt. Although his current state was entirely his own fault, it did not prevent him from hating Yun Che deeply... This was also one of the reasons why Yun Che took drastic measures and came to kill him after failing to kill him.
If you don't kill a snake, you'll be guilty of a crime, but if you let a tiger go back to the mountains, it will harm your family. This is the life creed that he has firmly engraved in his heart after experiencing countless life and death situations.
The branch sect's treasure house was hidden under the Pill Hall. It was not only well-hidden, but also had seven lines of defense. The main door of the treasure house was a stone door more than three meters high. Xiao Baicao pressed a round plate with strange patterns on the hole next to the stone door, and slowly turned it. The stone door suddenly rose up, accompanied by a deafening "boom" sound. This sound was clearly transmitted to the ground, telling people nearby that someone had entered the treasure house.
There were three such stone doors, each of which was nearly a foot thick. The sound of each door opening was louder than the last. If an outsider entered, just opening the door would alarm half of the sect.
The three doors opened, and a wide passage appeared before them. Xiao Baicao bowed and said, "Senior Huangfu, please."
Yun Che was not polite either, and walked ahead at a brisk pace, while reminding: “Don’t leave within three steps of me. Humph, I don’t want anyone to gossip about me.”
Xiao Baicao responded, but in his heart he gave a bitter smile... He thought, who are you? Would you bother to steal things here? Even if he really wanted to, without the mysterious power and two space rings, he couldn't take anything away.
Walking into the Xiao Sect's treasure house, rows of black wood cabinets appeared in sight. Xiao Baicao stepped forward and introduced: "These black wood cabinets are used to store various medicinal materials. The medicinal materials that the seniors need can be found here. In addition, some elixirs, rare treasures, and mysterious elixirs collected by the sect over the years, as well as various purple crystals, rare metals, gems, weapons, armor, and even sect skills... It can be said that the accumulation of our sect for thousands of years is hidden here."
As he spoke, a strong sense of pride emerged on Xiao Baicao's face.
Yun Che stroked his beard and said calmly: “Given the scale of your sect, it is quite good to have such an accumulation.”
Well, it is indeed quite good… I have all the skills and magic weapons to refine medicine, but I am worried about the medicinal materials… Tsk tsk, a sect’s thousand years of accumulation is really not in vain.
