I will survive with proficiency

More than fifty days passed by in a flash.

In Jiannanchun Winery.

Chen Ping picked up the newly brewed spirit wine.

The wild rice stem in the liquor is pure, without any impurities, it is as bright as a flying mirror facing Danque.

Just pick it up, there will be a wisp of fragrance, not the kind of strong fragrance, but a faint mellow fragrance, refreshing.

Chen Ping took a sip lightly, the jade liquid was sweet in the mouth, lingering in the fragrance, leaving the fragrance on the teeth and cheeks, making people have endless aftertastes.

nice.

Fairy Xiyue is very good at enjoying it.

I thought she was drinking.

Where is this wine?

It is fine nectar and jade liquid.

Over the past few months, Chen Ping has mastered winemaking skills to "proficient: 1/1000". At this level, this unknown wine has already shown its incomparably attractive side.

This will only taste better when it comes to "experts" and "grandmasters".

Of course, even the "proficient" level is already a leader in the current market.

Few can outdo it.

This wine is not far from the threshold of "unknown wine".

Maybe soon.

"Xiaohong, take it out and pour the spirit plant for Madam." Chen Ping handed the wine to Xiaohong.

Over the past few months, Yu Lingchun unexpectedly discovered when nurturing Lingzhi that this wine actually has a certain effect on the cultivation of Lingzhi.

Chen Ping knows that it is the wine that is close to "proficient" that has the effect. The previous wines had no such value.

So I just used it to water Lingzhi.

It can also be regarded as making the best use of everything.

To him, this is still a 'fake wine' level, not a real nameless wine. It's just good to drink, but it doesn't have the effect of improving physical fitness, and it doesn't meet the taste of Fairy Xiyue. It can't be regarded as drunk fairy flower. Of course I wouldn't drink it myself.

To drink, to drink the last 'real wine'.

"Yes, Patriarch." Xiao Hong came over immediately.

"Have any doubts to ask?"

"No, Patriarch, I don't have any doubts." Xiaohong said solemnly.

Hehe, it works.

It seems that Xiaohong understands the meaning of the scriptures.

He has always liked to convince people with virtue.

Chen Ping walked out of Jiannanchun Winery, stretching his muscles and bones, and saw the neighbor Ling Daoyou standing in front of his own winery, looking at the locust tree with a black face and groaning coldly, while another Taoist friend left jokingly.

"Friend Ling, what's the matter?" Chen Ping walked over and asked with a smile.

Cultivator Ling's face was dark, and he kept humming coldly:

"Humph, what do they know? Humph..., this is called, hum."

Chen Ping saw that he had hummed for a long time but couldn't think of a good word, so he said with a smile:

"It's called: A sparrow knows the ambition of a great swan?"

Hearing this, Cultivator Ling's eyes brightened, as if suddenly enlightened, this time the words fit his mood perfectly:

"Yes, yes, what Chen Daoyou said is very true. This monk means so."

Cultivator Ling's eyes flickered.

Hmph, those monks who had just tasted the wine and gave up after one or two years of failure in brewing wine had the nerve to laugh at him.

So what if a loquat tree grows up? At worst, plant another one.

Chen Ping raised his eyebrows and smiled:

"Does Fellow Daoist Ling want to say: Thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, don't bully the young and poor."

Brother Ling suddenly felt short of breath.

exactly.

This sentence is so true.

Daoyou Chen understands me.

This sentence is what he has always wanted to express, but he couldn't ask for it due to lack of words.

"Chen Daoyou, what you said is very true." Cultivator Ling said excitedly.

He felt that Chen Ping was his bosom friend.

At this time Shen Jiudi came out, Brother Ling restrained his smile, snorted and went back to the room.

"What's the matter, Fellow Daoist Ling?" Shen Jiudi asked Chen Ping. Looking at Cultivator Ling's figure, he wondered if he had offended him.

"Probably enlightened?" Chen Ping said calmly.

Enlightenment?

The corner of Shen Jiudi's mouth twitched a few times, but he always felt a bit of pride in Brother Ling's expression.

Shen Jiudi withdrew his gaze and said with a smile:

"Chen Daoyou's Jiannanchun Distillery has been open for half a year, but I rarely see Chen Daoyou coming out. What's the matter? Has Zui Xianhua ever had a clue?"

In the past six months, there have been some communication receptions among colleagues from time to time. Shen Jiudi has attended every time, but he has never seen Chen Ping.

But every monk has his own style of doing things. Although he was not optimistic about Chen Ping's behind closed doors, he didn't say anything.

"It can be considered that I have barely entered the way of wine making. There are too many things to practice and not enough time, so I seldom go out." Chen Ping said.

"That's true. This drunk fairy flower is no better than ordinary wine. It has many mysteries. Just talking about the magic technique, it is not easy to learn. I have practiced for almost three years and I still feel that I have not mastered the most difficult technique. No, Chen Daoyou doesn't need it." Hurry up, it's only been half a year, take your time. Although we often tease Fellow Daoist Ling, that perseverance is what we need to admire." Under Shen Jiudi's relaxed tone, helplessness loomed.

"That's true. How can something be achieved overnight? It takes a lot of persistence." Chen Ping laughed.

Having said that, he really didn't spend much energy on brewing.

Easy to get in the door.

The whole journey is also very smooth.

During the period, even the cultivation base did not drop too much.

"Yes." Shen Jiudi said. After hesitating for a moment, he asked again:

"Chen Daoyou is also here for the Taoist companion?"

Seeing that Chen Ping did not deny it, Shen Jiudi sighed inwardly:

"Don't hide it from fellow daoists, I am too."

"My path is limited, and I know that my aptitude is not good. It is impossible to form alchemy. It is a blessing to be able to enter the foundation. The only hope in this life is to complete this life hand in hand with a Taoist companion. I never thought... just, no Mention it."

"Chen Daoyou must have expectations, this road is not easy."

"..."

Chen Ping couldn't answer these words. He knew that Shen Jiudi's wife seemed to be in a very bad condition. Although he didn't know what her hidden illness was, this road was really difficult.

Of course, it is not easy for others to walk.

For him, it was fine to go.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit heavy, Chen Ping changed the subject and said:

"By the way, in the formula and craft of Drunken Immortal Flower, it is better to mention fresh high-grade spiritual materials. But why are there so few high-grade spiritual materials in Tianyan City? Has Fellow Daoist Shen ever asked for high-grade spiritual materials?"

Hearing this, the gloomy look in Shen Jiudi's eyes faded a bit, and he said with a smile:

"Fresh high-grade spiritual materials? Nowadays, all brewers are in the period of exploration. Who dares to try with high-grade spiritual materials. After a few years, it will not be a loss? Not to mention fresh high-grade spiritual materials, even high-grade spiritual materials There is no need to use dry materials, and it will not be too late to change to fresh high-grade spiritual materials after entering the door."

"Does Fellow Daoist Shen have a special channel for purchasing spiritual materials?" Chen Ping asked.

"Ham, I don't need any special channels. There are quite a few herbalists in the city. When the day is needed, you just need to issue a mission, and there will be herbalists who are willing to pick them. The Tianyan Territory is sparsely populated. There are endless wild forests to the west of Tianyan Domain, so there is no need to worry about high-grade spiritual materials." Shen Jiudi said, a little funny in his heart, Chen Ping was so ambitious, he couldn't even walk, he just wanted to run.

Chen Ping was a little disappointed when he heard that.

Originally, I wanted to inquire through Shen Jiudi whether there were other channels for purchasing high-grade spiritual materials.

It seems not.

For half a year, 1-5 plants of the seven top-grade spiritual materials can be found every month, and some have been accumulated one after another.

Only Mu Helian has only obtained one plant in half a year, and it is said that it was brought over from the Outland by a monk from Outland.

According to the current progress, the brewing technique can enter the master level in half a year at most. Once this level is reached, unnamed wine can be officially brewed.

That is, there is still half a year.

But Mu Helian's progress was not smooth, and the shopkeeper said last time that a family was looking for medicine recently, diverting some herbalists.

The future may not be optimistic either.

This task is to make a deal with Yuanying, he is not going to cut corners, he hopes to use the best materials.

Chen Ping chatted with Shen Jiudi for a while, and then returned to the quiet room. After weighing the pros and cons, he decided to go out of the city to find Mu Helian.

After the cloud-winged bird entered the master level, there was an extra quota of spiritual material marks.

Can be used to find Mu Helian.

On the way to Tianyan City that day, I saw the appearance of high-grade Mu Helian, which shows that there is ecology there, maybe it is too rare to find.

Having made the decision, Chen Ping immediately took out the cloud-winged bird and marked Mu Helian.

Cloud-winged bird's beast control technique is universal, and there is no need to brush the proficiency, it only needs to make cloud-winged bird a little familiar with Mu Helian.

In two hours, all the procedures were completed.

Early the next morning, after Chen Ping checked the integrity of several formations in Jiannanchun Winery, he went out and went to the clothing shop first. He brought the custom-made Tiangang Lei and put it on immediately. This kind of spiritual boots can increase his teleportation speed to a higher level, making him safer when going out.

Then he quietly walked out of Tianyan City, and Yujian quickly flew into the forest.

I still remember seeing the group of herbalists on the eighth day, which was estimated to be about 30,000 miles away from Tianyan City.

When he first came to Tianyan Domain, Chen Ping tried his best to avoid human tracks and walk through dense forests.

It is the same today.

After hundreds of miles out of the city, there is no human habitation anymore. Because he was traveling alone, Chen Ping Yujian's speed was much faster than when he first came here. By the time he landed for a rest in the dark on the first day, he had already traveled more than 7,500 miles.

In the evening of the fourth day, Chen Ping had already arrived near the destination.

He was not in a hurry, first he found a safe place, opened up a cave, arranged a formation, released the Nine Nether Colorful Cicadas, and then went into the cave to rest to avoid the unknown danger at night.

Although this is the Tianyan Domain, but near the western edge, further west is an endless wild forest. Monsters, evil spirits, etc. are countless times more dangerous than the Tianyan Domain under the jurisdiction of the sect.

It's okay to pass by, but be careful when staying.

After dawn, the cloud-winged birds were released to look for Mu Helian.

After half a day passed, Mu Helian was not found, but some fresh monster feces were found.

I don't know what kind of monster it is.

Chen Ping told himself to be careful.

After another half day, I saw the traces left by some monks who walked by, and I guess it was only the traces of the last few days.

The alchemy of the Tianyan sect is very popular, and the demand for collecting medicines is high. This place is close to the wild forest on the west side, and there are rich spiritual materials. It is normal for monks to go deep here to find medicines.

Be careful to avoid it.

Three days later, still nothing.

But Chen Ping is not in a hurry. The forest area here is too large. Although the cloud-winged bird has been brushed to the peak, its perception distance is still limited.

Finding medicine requires patience, and he expected it in his heart.

Just take your time.

...

At the same time, five hundred miles away.

The three pharmacists are carefully looking for spiritual materials.

"Second sister, you can't go any further to the west. It's close to the wild forest. If you go in, you may not be able to get out." A young monk said.

The second sister is a capable female cultivator, and she is heroic in a robe, with a heroic look in her eyebrows.

She looked up at the west side:

"Okay, just this area, don't go west anymore, look east slowly."

"It's really hard to find this top-grade Biggonia orchid. It's been more than 20 days since it came out, but I haven't found a single one. Then what does Mr. Fan want this kind of spiritual material for?" the young monk complained.

"Don't worry about the employer. We only need to find this kind of spiritual material. This is the rule of a pharmacist. If this order can be completed, the reward will be generous, and I will have no worries for a year." The second sister said expressionlessly.

The young monk suddenly thought of something, squinted his eyes, and approached the second sister in small steps.

Grin said:

"Second Sister, I have been waiting for more than 20 days, have I encountered two teams of pharmacists? The Tianyan Sect can't control this barren mountain and wild mountains."

"In my opinion, it's better to rob."

"The three of us are all in the late stage of foundation establishment, and their strength is not weak. We can specifically pick 1 or 2 people who are alone in the herb gathering. As long as we are lucky, isn't it faster than gathering herbs?"

"Shut up." The second sister's face turned cold, and she reprimanded sharply:

"Remember, the family asked you to come out with me this time, just to let you follow me to restrain your mind. The family has high hopes for you. You are so rough, how can you live up to the expectations of the elders?"

"Those pharmacists dare to enter the endless forest tens of thousands of miles away. Do you think they have no means? Let you slaughter them? Don't want to kill at every turn. We are pharmacists, not Jiexiu."

"Yes, Second Sister." After being reprimanded, the young monk did not dare to speak again, but he was a little unconvinced in his heart.

This second sister is too timid.

...

Chen Ping carefully searched for the medicine, relying on the cloud-winged bird to scan the dense forest step by step.

On the fourth day, there was no fruit, but I encountered a kind of Zhu Hongguo by accident.

A big tree, at least more than 100.

This kind of fruit is of little value to monks, but it is the favorite fruit of many fish and spirit beasts.

Can improve the quality of fish and spirit beasts.

Chen Ping doesn't have such a spirit beast, but he can sell spirit stones. He took all Zhu Hongguo as his own. After thinking about it, I pulled down another branch to see if it could be cultivated when I took it back.

The fifth day was fruitless.

On the sixth day, during the search in the forest, the cloud-winged bird finally made a change, and suddenly spread its wings and swooped to one side.

Chen Ping was shocked and followed decisively.

After galloping for more than ten miles, the cloud-winged bird stopped in front of a huge ancient tree, and Chen Ping did the same.

That big tree was at least as thick as twenty people, and its leaves and branches covered the sky and the sun. The trunk is covered with green moss and vines.

There is a clear spring under the tree, and running water constantly emerges from the bottom of the boulder.

But in the clear spring, Mu Helian was not seen.

Following the cloud-winged bird's head, I saw a crack several feet long and several feet wide on the trunk of the ancient tree, which was also covered with moss.

Inside the crack, there is actually a big tree hole. At the bottom of the tree hole, there is a clear water puddle, flowing slowly.

There's nothing wrong with it.

And above the tree hole puddle, a lotus-shaped plant lay quietly on the water surface, swaying slightly with the current.

...Top-grade Mu Helian.

Chen Ping was overjoyed.

After searching for so many days, I finally saw the top-grade Mu Helian.

Although it's just one plant, it means that the direction you're looking for is not wrong.

This area really has the growth ecology of Mu Helian.

Chen Ping stretched out his hand to gently support Mu Helian, which is a plant similar to lotus, with leaves floating on the water surface and roots stretching out in the clear water.

On the leaves, the outermost circle is in the shape of dead leaves, and the light brown lines extend inward, extending a trace of beautiful dead leaf lines, and the longest line even reaches the stem.

The more Chen Ping watched, the more surprised he became.

According to the quality level of Mu Helian he saw in the booklet before.

This is probably not just an ordinary top grade.

It's the best of the best.

Such a good quality means that the ecology is by no means simple, and there may be others around.

But at this moment, there was a snorting sound of 'hissing' from above the cave.

Accompanied by the sound of snorting, the coercion spread from nothing to nothing.

Chen Ping was shocked, he didn't dare to move easily for a moment, he even stopped the movement of Tuo Muhelian in his hand. Looking for a sense of coercion, he raised his head slightly.

above.

An octagonal deer monster, only two or three feet big, stood above the tree hole, snorting, and stared angrily at Chen Ping below.

Guardian beast?
