Chapter 27 The Pharmacist Is Back
Ten days later, Wu Yan stood at the entrance of Yunhai Cave, his face covered with dust and dirt, with an extremely satisfied expression on his face. Yunhai Cave has now undergone earth-shaking changes.
Near the southern entrance of the cave, there is a newly opened medicinal field. The area of the medicinal field occupies half of the entire cave, which is exactly the area that can be illuminated by the southern entrance of the cave.
The soil of this medicinal field was continuously transported from below by him in the past ten days. At the southernmost end of the medicinal field, more than a dozen herbs with pleasing growth quietly emit verdant light in the sun. Next to these dozen herbs, there are two purple sun grasses. However, these two purple sun grasses are only in the growth stage, and he specially transplanted them from the medicinal field.
Other parts of the medicinal field were also planted by Wu Yan in different categories with herbal seeds stolen from Master Feng's study. With the help of the mysterious green soil, these seeds have now sprouted and grown seedlings.
Wu Yan is not in a hurry to use the green soil to ripen these herbs. Before he solved the danger from Pharmacist Feng, he would never do such a stupid thing that might reveal his secret.
The small stove and the mysterious green soil were the biggest secrets in his heart, and he must not let anyone know. The small stove was now hidden in a secret hole he dug in this cave. The mysterious green soil and the eight Ziyang Pills that he could not use for the time being were also hidden in it.
The entrance of Yunhai Cave was now completely different from before. In ten days, he used the things he bought to decorate the north and south entrances like the forbidden land of the god of death. He firmly believed that even if a master like Li Ruoxu wanted to break in, he would have to pay a great price.
After doing all this, Wu Yan quietly returned to the bottom of the valley, washed and packed up, and returned to the stone house that Pharmacist Feng had prepared for him.
Wu Yan sat cross-legged in the stone house, took out a Ziyang Pill from his arms, swallowed it, and began to meditate and practice the nameless formula.
In these ten days, he finally figured out the effect of Ziyang Pill. This Ziyang Pill is actually very beneficial to his current cultivation. The energy flow that has been slow to change has actually grown a lot in the past ten days because of swallowing two Ziyang Pills in succession.
The first Ziyang Pill helped him successfully open up the fourth meridian, allowing him to break through the third level of the nameless formula and enter the fourth level.
Five days ago, he took the second Ziyang Pill. This second Ziyang Pill not only completely stabilized his fourth level, but also helped him enter the middle stage of the fourth level.
Wu Yan was very lucky to be able to prepare the Ziyang Pill that could improve his cultivation by accident, so he simply dug up the other two Ziyang grasses planted by Master Feng in the medicine field and transplanted them in the Yunhai Cave.
Wu Yan sat cross-legged on the stone bed, quietly feeling a hot air flow running through his body. He was not worried at all. He knew that this hot air flow was the medicinal power emitted by the Ziyang Pill.
The power of the medicine was very fierce, and it kept rampaging in his body, destroying his meridians. This process was very painful. Wu Yan gritted his teeth and quietly endured this painful torture.
He knew that the rewards and gains after the pain were extremely rich.
Half a day passed slowly, and the pain gradually became numb, and a little bit of coolness floated around the body. Wu Yan began to absorb and refine this little bit of energy flow according to the fourth level of the mind method, letting them gather together and return to the dantian.
…
At this time, in a guest room of Gushan Inn in Gushan Town, Pharmacist Feng sat cross-legged on the bed with a pale face. He looked older and more haggard than half a year ago. He had a dusty look on him. An old man in brocade clothes with a gray face standing next to the bed was cautiously looking at Pharmacist Feng who was thinking with his eyes closed.
If Wu Yan were here, he would definitely recognize this old man in brocade clothes. He is the owner of the He Family Planning Pharmacy, Hequan, who was unlucky enough to encounter the fight between Pharmacist Feng and Hu Bao of Broken Blade Hall at the border between Qing and Gu counties.
Hequan now looks pale and uneasy, especially when he finds that the old man who controls his life and death still has uncontrollable anger on his face, he feels even more uneasy.
Hu Bao looks better than him. Except for his slightly worse complexion, he has not changed much compared to half a year ago.
"Senior, I received your instructions and have been working non-stop for the past six months, spending most of my family wealth and almost buying up all the medicinal materials in the pharmacies in the nearby counties. Finally, I have fulfilled my mission and prepared all the medicinal materials you want. They are loaded on the two large carts outside. Do you see?" Hequan said carefully to Pharmacist Feng.
Pharmacist Feng raised his eyelids, hummed, and then there was no movement. Izumi's heart skipped a beat, and a look of disappointment appeared on his face, but he didn't dare to ask, and stepped aside.
Hu Bao walked to the front, bowed to Pharmacist Feng, and respectfully handed over a large envelope, saying: "Senior, this is all the core secrets about the Broken Blade Hall that I have collected in the past six months. Please take a look."
Pharmacist Feng still raised his eyelids, hummed, and coughed again, and said vaguely: "You two, you did a good job, put it down."
Hu Bao put the big envelope on the small table in front of Pharmacist Feng, frowned, and stepped back. Pharmacist Feng looked very bad, and the two did not dare to say much, standing aside with their eyes wide open.
After a long time, Pharmacist Feng's face seemed to be better. He raised his eyelids and saw the two people still standing in the room. He whispered unhappily: "If there is nothing, you can leave."
"But, senior, the antidote for the Heart Rot Pill..." Izumi and Hu Bao looked at each other, gritted their teeth, and bowed to Pharmacist Feng at the same time, and finally told the plan in their hearts.
"Hmph, scared to death? Don't worry, my Heart Rot Pill will not take effect until one year. There is still half a year before the onset. What are you afraid of?"
"But, senior, we have done everything according to your instructions. Please give me the antidote."
"Well, who is not afraid of death?" Pharmacist Feng smiled self-deprecatingly, frowned and thought for a while, his expression moved, and then said: "I don't have the antidote with me. Let's do this. Come here again in two months, and I will give you the antidote. But before that, I want you to do something."
The two people's faces changed when they heard it. It can be seen that after hearing what Pharmacist Feng said, both of them felt a little angry. It was agreed that as long as they could follow Pharmacist Feng's instructions and complete the things he arranged, they could get the antidote and remove the poison of the Heart-Rotting Pill. Now, they have already completed this matter half a year in advance, but Pharmacist Feng is looking for an excuse to delay giving them the antidote. From what he said, it seems that he wants them to do something. How can they not be angry?
In order to purchase medicinal materials for Pharmacist Feng, Hequan almost spent most of his family wealth, and Hu Bao took all kinds of risks to carefully collect the confidential core information of Broken Blade Hall. It can be said that both of them have gone through untold hardships to complete their respective tasks. Now hearing this, how can they not be chilled and angry?
But now their lives are in the hands of Pharmacist Feng, even if they are angry, how dare they show it.
"Senior, you promised to give us the antidote as long as we can do what you ordered. You are not keeping your word." Hu Bao seemed to have given up and said with gritted teeth. Izumi nodded desperately.
Pharmacist Feng is an old man after all. How could he not understand their intentions? Hearing this, he sneered: "Why? Are you dissatisfied with my arrangement?"
"I dare not!" The two of them bowed in anger.
"I might as well tell you that I have the antidote with me now. However, even if I give you the antidote now, I can't completely eliminate the poison of the Corruption Heart Pill. I can only suppress the Corruption Heart Pill from attacking it a year later. If you can do the things I arrange next, I will consider completely eliminating the poison of the Corruption Heart Pill in your body. How about it?" Pharmacist Feng looked at the two people mockingly.
Hequan and Hubao's faces turned ugly at the same time. Naturally, they dared not say anything now, so they said respectfully at the same time: "Please give me your orders, but I hope you can abide by the agreement this time."
"Don't worry, I have always believed in the way of saints, how can I not keep my word? As long as you do your job well, I will naturally remove the poison of the Heart-Rotting Pill from your body. Hequan, you try to help me purchase a 500-year-old mountain ginseng within two months. Hubao, you go to Yunzhou City and find out the movements of the Blood Rain Sect and the Dragon and Tiger Gang. I heard that they are going to extend their hands to Qing County and Gu County. You don't want your Broken Blade Hall to be swallowed up by them, right?"
After listening to Master Feng's words, Hequan and Hubao showed a stunned expression and a horrified expression.
