Chapter 119 Buying Pills
"Then... when will you come over?" Xia Yuan looked over expectantly.

Knowing that the Seven Star Wood Shouwen 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 rubbish monster is old and has a bad sense of direction. Next time it makes a wrong flight, it will be killed and eaten!
"Tomorrow!"

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

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

Wu Yue snorted coldly, "I've already confirmed the news, there's no need to hide it... How about this, I also recruited a good student this year, just 16 years old, I'll bring them over tomorrow! You also bring those two Jiumai students here , by the way let them learn from each other!"

"Discussion?"

Xia Yuan looked puzzled.

Wu Yue smiled, "That's right! 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 the 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 ...that shouldn't be a problem!"

"A guest?"

Xia Yuan frowned, and finally nodded, "Also, it's also 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 believed in Xu Hong's strength. Even a genius in the third grade could be beaten violently, and it would be difficult to beat a master on the master list. It was almost impossible for him to win at the same age!

That being the case, no matter what he asks, just agree!

"it is good!"

Wu Yue smiled lightly and 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 for Yang Mo..." Seeing the disappearing back 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 pierced through the air and go.

Back then, Yang Mo had pursued this Wu Yue, but unfortunately there were some accidents, and in the end the two did not 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 sleep..."

With a mutter, 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, old master Cheng hurried over, entered the room, bowed and clasped his fists.

"I heard that this friend has a lot of wooden longevity grains that you want to sell?"

"Not bad!"

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?" Mr. Cheng asked.

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

"A thousand pieces?"

Mr. Cheng's eyes lit up.

It is too slow to collect a thousand wood longevity grains scatteredly. I don't know how long it will take to complete. It is cheap and trouble-free to buy it at once. Naturally, he is most willing to see it.

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

Old Master Cheng pondered for a moment, and said: "An ordinary Guangmu Shouwen plant costs about 1 taels of silver... However, different varieties have different prices. Even so, the overall price will not exceed 2000 million taels of silver! We hope that the longevity pattern will be inspected first, and then the price will be determined after confirming the type. Rest assured, Tianyi Auction House will have the most fair price, and there will be no deceit.”

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'll help you make an appointment with the buyer. How about you meeting and discussing it then?"

Mr. 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.

After deciding on the procedure for the meeting, Wei Ziyang turned around and left without further words. Not long after he walked out of the auction house, when he came out of a deserted alley again, he had already changed into another appearance.

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

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

"Someone sold a thousand wood longevity grains at once?"

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

Dean Xia just threatened them here, asking 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's the origin of that man, has the emperor checked it?" Cheng Yu asked after pondering for a while.

"This is his portrait. It was painted by an artist just now, and the similarity is more than [-]%! In addition, I sent someone to follow him, but it disappeared after a short time, and the seven hidden stumps were not found."

Mr. 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 single commander behind him, "Go and check it out!"

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, he didn't even see what kind of strength the opponent had. He was probably a superpower who was not lower than the Foundation Establishment Realm.

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

After asking a few more questions and confirming the time to meet tomorrow, Cheng Yu came 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 from the Yuan King City!"

Liyuan King City has a population of more than ten million. If you search one by one with just a 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.

……

Unexpectedly, 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 [-]% to [-]% 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, "The discounts are 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 6% discount. Elder Zhao, Elder Liu Mo, they get 7% off, and further down, ordinary deacon elders get 8% off. As for the new elders, they all get [-]% off. Although you only enjoy the treatment of elders, the dean has personally explained , buy medicines, directly at [-]% off."

Xu Hong's eyes lit up immediately.

It seems that his "elder treatment" was not obtained 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 10 taels a piece. Moreover, each 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 Qi Bu Qi Pills. 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 refining medicine. The alchemy furnace is very good, but he can't even prepare a gas-enhancing 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. Maybe...in this respect, it is indeed very strong.

"If you want to buy it, I'll 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 Pill Garden is not far from the Vitality Garden. It is a tall and spacious building. It not only sells pills, but also a place for students to learn alchemy. It is one of the most important places in Hongwu College.

Entering it, one can immediately see dozens of rooms separated around the wide hall. Inside each of them, there is a cauldron, the true energy is stirring, the flames are tumbling, and the surroundings are full of 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 [-] people can successfully refine pills every year, and no more than [-] students can refine pills. indivual……"

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, no more than two could refine the elixir... Isn't the probability only [-]%?

The key... Those who can come to learn are those who have 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 before, but I have never 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 experimenting, the sound of furnace opening, frying furnace, yelling and insulting can be heard endlessly.

Xu Hong had a strange look on his face.

No matter the student or the teacher, when refining pills, they are trying to adapt to the longevity patterns on the furnace. If there is a slight lack of energy, the patterns will go wrong, which will lead to the destruction of the medicinal materials.

This is like taming wild horses, taming one or two, many people can still do it, taming dozens of them at once, no matter how strong a person is, they will feel powerless, even if they are strong in the life-enhancing state.

No wonder refining medicine is complicated, fighting wits and bravery with Shou Wen, once refining one furnace, 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 lines. When you start learning later, you will understand how much energy is consumed..."

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

Students are also sold here, but they are all pills, and students are not eligible to buy pills, 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 the Qi Bu Pill and the like, and you are not eligible to buy a first-grade top-level pill like Duo Tian 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 tonifying pill?"

The teacher was a young man in his thirties, he was taken aback for a moment, and then hesitantly appeared on his face, "Well... I may want to check your purchase qualifications, may I ask... do you have merit talismans or purchase tokens? ?”

"A talisman 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 landed on the table.

"Dean Xia's Token, Dean Han's Token, Elder Hong's Token... and the Golden Order of Dan Yuanzong? This..."

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