MTL - Longevity Chart-Chapter 17 Cockscomb

  Chapter 17 Ziying Cockscomb Grass

  Xu Hong was stunned.

  After a few days of research, he knew that the longevity map in his mind, no matter whether it was a person or an animal, could not see the lifespan without knowing the name, but at this time, it showed the decline of the other party's lifespan, which showed how terrible the reduction rate was.

  Deducting 10 days at a time, if I were myself, I might be lying on the ground in a few seconds, waiting for others to eat... But this one seems to be unaware.

   Soon, the eyes fell on the vegetation, which was as bright as usual, as if it had just been picked not long ago... It seems that this is the problem.

  I didn't want to take care of it at first, so I hesitated for a while, and walked over, but before I came to the front, I was blocked by the middle-aged guard.

  Xu Hong stopped, looked at the old man, and said: "Senior, the herb in your hand seems to be poisonous, I think it's best to put it away, don't keep holding it in your hand..."

  The old man who was originally expressionless and calm, immediately showed a little surprise when he heard this.

  The middle-aged guard who stopped Xu Hong let go of the blocking arm, and there was a flash of excitement: "Do you know this medicine?"

  Xu Hong shook his head, "I don't know, I just think this thing is dead but not stiff, extremely colorful, a little weird..."

"This…"

  The middle-aged guard showed disappointment again, and turned to look at the old man.

The old man looked over and said: "This [Ziying Cockscomb Grass] is indeed poisonous, and the toxicity is not small. You can tell this just by looking at the appearance. It seems that you have a good understanding of medicine... "

  His voice is warm and indifferent, giving people a sense of calmness, which is very comfortable to hear.

   "Just talking nonsense!"

   After finishing what should be said, I don’t care what the other party chooses. After clasping fists, Xu Honggang wanted to leave and find a counter to buy medicinal materials, when the voice of the middle-aged guard sounded again.

   "You can tell at a glance that this thing is poisonous, so... does this little brother know where the Yundang Mountains are suitable for this medicinal material to grow?"

  Xu Hong looked strange, "This... you can ask the pickers, isn't that all right?"

  Since the medicine has been picked, the herb collector must know where it grew.

Before the middle-aged guard could answer, the old man shook his head and said, "The person who picked this medicinal herb fell into a coma before he could say anything... I only know that it was picked in the Yundang Mountains, but the exact location is not clear. !"

  Xu Hong came to a sudden.

  Yundang Mountain spans more than three thousand miles, including countless peaks and valleys. Without knowing the exact location, it is almost impossible to find the place where a medicinal herb grows!

  Just wanted to tell the other party that it was the first time I saw it, and I didn't know where it grew, when suddenly, an idea popped up.

   Knowing the names of people and animals, you can use longevity charts to find out basic information such as lifespan... What about plants?

   They are alive too! Perhaps, the same can be probed.

  I never thought of this before, so I never noticed it.

   With a thought in his heart, he immediately mobilized the longevity map to look over.

   Sure enough, a few lines of writing emerged.

  Ziying Cockscomb Grass: a medicinal material grown in Luoyunxia, ​​Yundang Mountains.

  Attribute: wood.

  Life span: 121 years/121 years.

  Efficacy: highly toxic, combined with poplar flower, it can be turned into a tonic.

   Really can!

  It is only slightly different from humans and animals, replacing "cultivation" with "attribute", and "gongfa" with "efficacy".

These thoughts flashed through my mind. Seeing the old man and the middle-aged guards with anticipation in their eyes, Xu Hong hesitated for a moment and said, "According to my guess, Luoyun Gorge in Yundang Mountain should be able to Growth, of course, I am also guessing randomly, there is no basis..."

  He didn't say die.

   In this way, even if the other party finds out that it is true, they will at most feel that his guess is accurate and will not doubt it too much.

   "Luoyun Gorge?"

  The old man was taken aback.

  The middle-aged guard hurriedly took out the jade box, put the medicinal materials in it, took out a map at the same time, and handed it over.

   is the topographic map of the Yundang Mountains.

   This thing is very precious, and Xujiazhuang only hangs a picture in the meeting hall.

  The old man searched on it, and stopped after a while, his eyes became brighter and brighter, and his expression was no longer as indifferent as before, but showed a trace of excitement.

   "The mountains on the south side are towering, blocking the sun. There is a lake in the north, which is cold and humid, with shrubs growing in the middle... It is indeed suitable for the growth of Ziying cockscomb. Yes, if Yundang Mountain really has this medicine, it will definitely be here..."

  Speaking of this, I looked at Xu Hong, "Thank you, little friend, for letting me know about the man in my dream. I don't know if my little friend is free..."

  Xu Hong quickly waved his hands and said, "I'm guessing wildly too, you don't have to be polite, senior."

  Helping the other party is to see that he has an extraordinary bearing, but his lifespan is constantly decreasing. He kindly reminded him and did not intend to repay him.

  Besides, when socializing with people, how can there be a better way to test the gas-increasing liquid?

   With his life span, he is no longer allowed to go out to drink or eat...

"This…"

   His eyes widened, the middle-aged guard was full of disbelief.

   Seeing the other party talking deliberately, I thought it was a deliberate friendship, and I did it deliberately. After all, I have seen too many such things in these years... Now it seems that it is not the case.

  Otherwise... Who can refuse the master's personal invitation?

"Well…"

  A trace of surprise also flashed in the old man's eyes, but he didn't continue to say more.

   Not knowing what they were thinking, Xu Hong nodded, took a step forward, came to the counter, and handed over the prescription, "Shopkeeper, according to the medicinal materials above, you can grab enough 16 taels of silver!"

"okay!"

  The shopkeeper took it, took a look, and saw that his shop had all of them, and then he responded and started to grab the medicine.

  16 taels, which is equivalent to 16,000. In ordinary business, it is considered a big order.

   "Master, since we know where the herbs grow, let's go..."

  The middle-aged guard bowed.

  Before he finished speaking, he saw the master looking forward, with a strange look in his eyes, and the middle-aged guard was slightly puzzled, and when his eyes fell on the medicinal materials grabbed by the shopkeeper, he was also stunned.

   "Master..."

  The old man smiled, "Did you see it?"

  The guard nodded: "Yeah!"

   Smiling again, the old man looked at the young man not far away.

  Helping others without taking credit, having a deep understanding of the medicinal properties of medicinal materials, but not the slightest complacency... No matter where you look at it, this sixteen-year-old boy has revealed that he is different from other people.

  Thinking of this, I couldn't help but said: "Cold Valley Grass, Wood Fragrance Flower, Green Leaf Seed, Cloud Wood Seven...Little friend, are you going to make Qi-enhancing liquid?"

  Xu Hong was taken aback for a moment, "Senior, do you also know about this thing?"

The old man said with a smile: "I have always been with medicinal materials. If there is Qi-enhancing liquid in Jiyuan City, I will naturally go to see it... But, this thing can only be refined by elixir masters. Do you want to learn it? I heard that this kind of Profession, without a mentor, is very difficult to get started!"

  Xu Hong was embarrassed, "I went to buy Qi-enhancing liquid, but I couldn't get in the queue, so I had to buy some medicinal materials and try it myself..."

The old man: "You can't randomly experiment with medicinal materials. Sometimes, a little bit of it is a great tonic, and a little bit of it can be very poisonous. Not to mention ordinary people, there are not a few elixir masters who die because of mistakes in refining medicine every year. The point is, I still can't find out which steps are wrong... In this way, you dare to try?"

  Xu Hong nodded.

When other people refine medicine, they can only test the curative effect after waiting for the finished product. At this time, either one or the other has become a fixed number and cannot be changed. However, he has a longevity chart and can monitor it in real time. Once he finds a mistake, he can change it immediately ...don't worry at all.

  I didn’t know what he was thinking, but the old man showed praise, and said, "Not bad, you are courageous! How about it... After you have prepared the medicinal solution, can you give me a copy? I am willing to exchange 50 medicinal materials!"

  Xu Hong didn't understand, "I just match it casually, I don't know if it will be successful..."

  The old man said with a smile: "You told me where the purple cockscomb grass grows, but you don't want to accept the invitation. I can't accept favors in vain. No matter whether you succeed or not, it is considered an investment for you!"

  Seeing that his tone did not sound like a joke, Xu Hong could only nod his head and said, "Thank you very much..."

   After finishing speaking, he looked at the counter, "Did you hear me, pack another 50 copies, this old gentleman pays the bill!"

   "..."

  The old man was stunned, and the smile instantly froze on his face.

this…

  You are really welcome!

  ps: Everyone is still working hard, but it seems that there are not as many votes as yesterday, is there any more?

  In addition, the follow-up reading of the new book involves the recommendation and promotion later on. If you think this book is not bad, don’t keep it, you must read it! Also, I hope everyone will post more chapters and comments, I will read every one, and if I don’t post it, I don’t have to copy it...
