Chapter 21 Exchange
In summer, it is most comfortable to live in the mountains. Even at noon, the summer breeze brings a cool feeling.
Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan were digging spiritual herbs in the back mountain. Shi Xiaoliu dug for a while and then looked at the spiritual herbs in Shi Zelan's basket.
"Sister Lan, this time the leaves are flat and long, so there is no need to dig up the roots. Let them grow a little longer, and then dig them up with the roots in a few days."
"Well, luckily we only dug up a few."
The brother and sister each dug a basket. On the way back, Shi Xiaoliu said to Shi Zelan, "Sister Lan, I think I chose the most difficult path."
Shi Xiaoliu decided to develop in the direction of alchemy. He had a lot to learn, and there was no alchemy master in Zizai Peak.
"You should practice hard. When you take the exam to become an inner disciple, perhaps the Taoist master of Yaofeng will be impressed by your character and spiritual energy."
Shi Xiaoliu looked at Shi Zelan: "They said that I was determined to learn about elixirs, which was a betrayal to Zizai Peak."
“I’ve asked my uncle, and the outer disciples of Zizai Peak have another chance to choose their master when they are taking the exam to become inner disciples.
If you get the chance and become the disciple of the master of alchemy, you will become a great alchemist in the future, which will be beneficial to Zizai Peak. ”
Master Feng Yuan has always believed that smart people will choose the most suitable path.
Shi Zelan and Shi Xiao agreed that she would concentrate on learning how to make talismans in the future. As for kendo, it was her biggest hobby.
Shi Xiaoliu looked at Shi Zelan and advised, "Sister Lan, I heard people say that drawing talismans is the most difficult path to take, even more difficult than being an alchemist."
Shi Zelan looked at Shi Xiaoliu and smiled: "Master allowed me to learn talismans, but he said that I like swords and I must study kendo seriously."
Shi Xiaoliu looked at Shi Zelan and wiped her face embarrassedly: "Sister Lan, listen to Daojun's words."
Shi Zelan saw the muddy handprints on his face and immediately smiled: "Don't mind me, you can use the Water Purification Technique to wash your hands."
Shi Xiaoliu clapped his hands and wiped his face with his sleeve: "Sister Lan, I feel like I am still the same as before."
"Xiao Liu, do you miss your family?"
"Think about it. I had a dream a few days ago that my grandfather was chasing me and beating me. I ran so fast that he couldn't catch up with me."
"You should practice hard. Your grandfather is still young. He will definitely wait until you come home."
"Sister Lan, I'm sorry. Will you go back to see your grandfather in the future?"
"Yes, I will go to my grandfather's grave to pay my respects and let him know that my father and mother are all well."
The siblings were drying the spiritual herbs in the front yard. Shi Xiaoliu looked around and asked in a low voice, "Where are the five people?"
"Oh, I don't have anything to do here. I told them to practice more when they have time."
"They are servants. Don't be too nice to them, or they will treat you like a child."
Shi Zelan looked at Shi Xiaoliu and asked, "Are you having a hard time in the outer sect?"
Shi Xiaoliu's eyes turned red for a moment, and he quickly said, "No, it's great."
"Others have a bad relationship with you, and you also have a bad relationship with others. How do the people in our Shi family treat you?"
"They are busy practicing now, so we don't have much time together."
Shi Zelan looked at Shi Xiaoliu and said bluntly, "Because you are too good, they can't keep up with you, so you can't play together now, right?"
"Sister Lan, I heard that Xia Yu has a new friend. Do you feel uncomfortable?"
“Why should I feel uncomfortable?
He already had many friends, and I wasn't that close to him. ”
"But others say that he was your only friend in the lecture hall."
“Oh, he and I just had a chance to talk a little more.
If I want to make friends, he will definitely not be my only friend. You should be my only good friend. ”
Shi Zelan poured a glass of water for Shi Xiaoliu: "Drink this glass of water slowly."
Shi Xiaoliu took the water and took a big sip. When he heard Shi Zelan's words, he choked several times.
"Sister Lan, I just took a sip of water before you reminded me."
Shi Zelan breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that he didn't spray water out: "This is the unique water of Fangcaotang. Fortunately, you didn't waste it."
Shi Xiaoliu then drank the glass of water carefully, sip by sip, and then savored it for a moment: "The water is very sweet."
Shi Zelan laughed out loud after hearing what he said: "It was only the second time that I tasted the sweetness of the water.
You are indeed someone who will become a great elixir pharmacist. Your tongue is more effective than mine. ”
Shi Xiaoliu looked at Shi Zelan: "The smell of water seems familiar."
"Hahaha, if you think about it more, you will definitely be able to come up with a result."
Shi Xiaoliu thought about it carefully, then pointed at Shi Zelan and said, "Sister Lan, the smell of silver flower."
Shi Zelan laughed: "I know you can taste it."
"Sister Lan, you are so capable. You can actually extract Tianyin Flower Water."
“I don’t know how to make it, so the five of them went to ask someone and came back to make it for me.
Isn’t it delicious?
I gave this water to my grandmaster and uncle, and they both said it was good, but I can't drink it often. ”
"Is it because of the medicinal properties of Tianyinhua?"
“The medicinal properties of silver flower are pure, but the water extracted in the morning has a cool taste.
Drinking it in summer is good for your health. . ”
After listening to Shi Zelan's words, Shi Xiaoliu thought for a moment and said to her: "I will learn more about pharmacology and see if I can extract silver flower water at night in the future."
"Okay, we will study hard. But for now, we still need to collect more spiritual herbs and send them to the Governor's Hall to exchange for some spiritual stones."
Shi Zelan is not short of spirit stones for the time being, but if she can earn more spirit stones, she will have more confidence in leaving the sect in the future.
Most of the Tianyin flowers in Fangcao Hall have to be handed back to the sect, but as for the spiritual herbs, the manager of Zizai Peak has ordered Shi Zelan to arrange and handle them on her own.
Shi Zelan asked Lu Lingyu and the other four for their opinions. They said that after finishing the work in the back mountains, they wanted to use their free time to practice.
Therefore, Shi Zelan invited Shi Xiaoliu and others to come to the back mountain to collect spiritual herbs. Originally, the six of them came together.
But after two times, only Shi Xiaoliu was left to accompany Shi Zelan to collect spiritual herbs on holidays.
"Xiao Liu, didn't you guys agree to come together today?"
"Sister Lan, I left early and didn't meet up with them."
After one or two times, Shi Zelan stopped asking.
Shi Xiaoliu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. When he came, he naturally made an appointment with the other five people.
They were unwilling to come and advised Shi Xiaoliu not to waste time at Fangcaotang.
“Xiao Liu, even if Sister Lan’s cultivation is not good enough, True Lord Feng Yuan and True Man Ping Yang will protect her.
What do we have?
We just need to practice diligently and accompany her once or twice to show our best intentions. ”
"Sister Lan asked us to go with her to the back mountain to pick spiritual herbs and send them to the Governor's Hall. She will also give us some spiritual stones."
