"What is this doing?"
Several people who were waiting to see Ye Zan's joke suddenly heard questions coming from behind them. They all trembled and turned around to see Liu Qian and Mo Ru approaching.
Among them was a young man whose clothes were different from the others. He was wearing a moon-white robe with gold trim, and the sword at his waist was studded with precious stones. He looked like a playboy from a wealthy family. This person is not a disciple of Yuqing, but the direct disciple of Liu Qian's alchemy, and it is precisely for this reason that he is regarded as such among several people.
Liu Qian's disciple, whose surname was Li Yuanshan, quickly saluted his teacher and Elder Mo, and then replied: "Teacher, that junior brother seems to be following the example of the ancients in tasting hundreds of herbs."
"Junior brother? What junior brother! That's Elder Mo's junior brother, you want to call him uncle." Liu Qian suddenly glared and said with a serious face. Although the misunderstanding was explained, Liu Qian couldn't help but feel a little angry when it came to Ye Zan, so he directly revealed the relationship between Mo Rushi and Ye Zan.
Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, several people, including Li Yuanshan, immediately looked at Mo Rusi with surprise on their faces. The dignified Grand Elder of the Yuqing Sect actually has a junior disciple who is a beginner in Qi refining. This is too weird. You must know that the disciples of Grand Elder Mo are all at the Foundation Establishment level.
However, there was no trace of embarrassment on Mo Ru's face, and he said directly: "That's right, this person is my junior disciple who is acting as my master. You must not be rude to him."
Those people were quite surprised at first, and even didn't believe it. They thought Liu Qian and Elder Mo were joking. After all, with the relationship between the two of them, there is nothing surprising about joking. However, hearing this such a solemn admission, several people were so shocked that their jaws almost hit their feet.
However, it didn't take long for several people to be surprised. Liu Qian immediately noticed another sentence and asked: "Wait a minute, Yuan Shan, what did you just say and what is he doing?"
"Teacher, that little master... uncle seems to be imitating the ancients in tasting herbs. We followed him all the way. He has already chewed a lot of raw stems and leaves of herbs." Li Yuanshan was a little uncomfortable and almost called him by the wrong name. It is true that his cultivation level is higher than that of Ye Zan, and he is older than Ye Zan, but because Ye Zan is the junior brother of Elder Mo, he has to call Ye Zan uncle, which is naturally difficult to accept for a while.
But this time, it was Liu Qian's turn to be frightened. His face suddenly darkened and he shouted: "Nonsense! He may not know, but you don't know that herbs can be eaten in such a random way!"
Li Yuanshan pretended to be helpless, and said with some grievance: "Teacher, we have tried to persuade him before, but this young master didn't listen, and we can't stop him by force."
"Brother Dao Mo, look at this..." Liu Gan wanted to explain to his disciple, but when he turned around, he saw that Elder Mo had disappeared. Looking at Ye Zan in the distance, Elder Mo appeared there at some point and seemed to be asking something.
Seeing this situation, Liu Qian didn't care about talking about his disciples. He only glared at Li Yuanshan fiercely, then quickly followed after passing a few people.
At this time, Elder Mo was approaching Ye Zan, looking at Ye Zan with a worried face, and asked carefully: "Junior brother, what are you doing?"
"Bah!" Ye Zan spat a mouthful of green juice on the ground, glanced at Elder Mo, shook his head and said, "Nothing, just to understand the properties of the medicine. You are really not good at growing herbal medicine."
"Don't you feel good about your health?" Liu Gan came over and asked.
Ye Zan walked to the next medicinal field, picked off two leaves, and said, "It's nothing, what can I do?" After saying that, he put two more leaves into his mouth.
"These herbal medicines are very toxic if they are not processed. You'd better be careful, fellow Taoist Ye." Liu Qian persuaded her gently, but obviously he couldn't help it. Of course, he believed that with him here, nothing too serious would happen. At most, it would just make Ye Zan suffer a little.
"Bah!" Ye Zan spat another mouthful of green juice on the ground, nodded indifferently, and said, "Is there anything else?"
Liu Qian looked at the puddle of juice on the ground, and wisps of clear smoke rose from it, and the corners of his eyes twitched. That was Fire Cloud Grass. Even if most people touched it with their hands, they would be burned as if they were touching fire, let alone chewing it raw. It seems that although this little junior brother Mo Ru is just an introductory practitioner of Qi refining, there is indeed something unusual about him.
Then, Liu Qian took out the method of dispensing the medicine and tried his best to show his humility in asking for advice, and asked: "Fellow Daoist Ye, there are some theoretical questions about the method of dispensing the medicine. Can you answer them for me?"
However, Ye Zan didn't look flattered at all, but replied unceremoniously: "Just do it, why are you asking so many questions? You don't understand after I explain it."
Ye Zan is not holding a grudge or putting on airs, but the principle is really hard to explain. say what? What is a displacement reaction, what is a combination reaction, and what is the molecular structure of a substance? If you want to talk about it, it can't be explained clearly in a few sentences. He is not here to popularize science.
However, Ye Zan's words really made Liu Qian speechless for a long time. Elder Mo next to him knew the inside story, but he didn't think anything of it. However, Li Yuanshan and other disciples who followed behind were stunned. What surprised Li Yuanshan and others even more was that although Liu Qian looked very angry, just when they thought they were going to explode, Liu Qian suppressed his anger.
Liu Qian not only suppressed his anger, but also squeezed out a stiff smile on his face and said: "Yes, my question is a bit abrupt. Don't be offended, Fellow Daoist Ye."
As soon as Liu Qian said these words, not to mention Li Yuanshan and others, even Mo Ru who knew the inside story were a little shocked. You know, as a master of alchemy, Liu Qian has always had a high status in a small sect like Yuqing Sect. In other words, he doesn't give anyone face. Who would have thought that Liu Qian could behave so humbly in the face of Ye Zan.
Liu Qian is not a person who is willing to bow his head easily, but not bowing his head "easily" does not mean that he will never bow his head, especially when faced with a big enough temptation. This temptation comes from Ye Zan's formula, or what is shown in the formula.
Yes, it was just a recipe for the best Qi Refining Pill, but the truth contained in it made Liu Qian vaguely feel the opportunity for a breakthrough. With the vision of the alchemy master, he clearly had a premonition that if he understood this formula and truly mastered its principles, the distance between him and the alchemy master would no longer be an insurmountable barrier.
An opportunity to be promoted to an alchemy master, such a huge temptation is placed in front of you. Saying a few soft words and showing a low profile means nothing.
However, Mo Ru didn't know what Liu Qian was thinking, and was afraid that the two of them would quarrel again, so he quickly interrupted the topic and said to Ye Zan: "Junior brother, what did you just say? What happened to the herb cultivation?"
