Legendary Pharmacist

Chapter 12 The Autumn Solstice

The sky was getting dark, and in the heart hall of the Wu-seeking Sect, the air was filled with worry and tension.

In the hall, the suzerain sits on the head, and the elders of the whole clan sit on both sides in turn, even the disciples with the highest seniority in each hall and room. Among them, of course, is the elder sister with the highest cultivation level among the disciples and Mo Junrong, the furnace master of the alchemy room.

"Third Elder, do you have any news about the disciple you sent out? What is the attitude of Zixiao Cave?" The suzerain frowned, his face full of worry.

The third elder shook his head: "Zixiao Cave is still unwilling to talk about the news I just brought back this morning. I'm afraid this matter will become more and more troublesome, to the point of irreparable."

The second elder knocked on her iron crutch and said, "Third brother, there is nothing to sigh about. Zixiaodong insisted that we stole his family's exercises. This is simply an excuse. I don't think they have any intention of talking about it." .”

"Second Elder, don't be so impulsive," the Sixth Elder waved his hand and disagreed with her statement, "Now Zixiao Cave has neither gathered disciples nor built a large number of magic weapons. Zixiao Cave is only eight mountains away from us, and everyone's strength is about the same. Will not use force."

The suzerain nodded: "The Sixth Elder is right. There are only a hundred more disciples in Zixiao Cave than us, and the people in the Qi Condensation Realm are about the same as us. Since they have no sign of gathering disciples, they probably don't want to do anything."

The Sixth Elder bowed his hands to the suzerain and said, "Sovereign, since Zixiao Cave has no plans to do anything, can we remove the method of guarding the mountain and fog? The daily consumption of this secret method is too great to maintain for a long time."

This time the third elder waved his hands repeatedly and refused: "No, no, this method of guarding the mountain and fog must not be withdrawn. I haven't figured out what Zixiao Cave wants to do yet, so I can't let the disciple stop."

"Don't stop? The method of guarding the mountain fog requires 30 disciples of the Yuqi Realm to perform it at six fog spots on Yuexi Mountain at the same time. Now more than 90 disciples have been selected and divided into three groups to do this in turn. Do you know the daily How much does the pill consume? If you continue to use it, all the pills in the pill room will be used up, and you have to withdraw it if you don’t."

"Elder Six, at such a critical juncture, you still have to worry about what to do with those pills, you have to use them as needed."

"Enough, stop arguing!" The suzerain suddenly raised his voice, "Mo Junrong."

"The disciple is here."

"You are in charge of the alchemy furnace now, and the elder said that you know the stock of pills in the alchemy room best. According to the current daily consumption, how many days can the alchemy room last?"

"Returning to the suzerain, the pill room can now refine more than three hundred pills of this kind every day, plus the stored ones, it can last up to eight days."

The suzerain held his head in thought when he heard the words, and kept stroking his white beard with his hands. All eyes in the hall were fixed on him, waiting for him to make a decision.

"Eight days, eight days..." After thinking for a long time, the suzerain straightened up and said, "Third elder, please ask your disciples to inquire about the news. Sixth elder, you order to go down and guard the mountain fog method after six days. Remember, the fog removal method If you don’t evacuate, more than ninety disciples are still in the fog spot. Mo Junrong, go back and count the pills with the elders in the alchemy room, and make sure to leave enough for two days of using the fog technique.”

Seeing that all the people present cupped their hands one after another, the Suzerain waved his sleeves to make everyone retreat.

"Second elder, Yunyou, you stay here." When they were about to leave, the suzerain suddenly called out to stop them.

"Brother?"

"metropolitan?"

"Second Sister, you and Yun You go to gather the remaining disciples, and let them guard the buildings around the Hall of Lunxin. Tell them, as soon as the morning bell rings in the Hall of Lunxin, they will rush to the Hall of Lunxin to protect the sect."

The second elder stared at the suzerain closely after hearing the words: "Brother, are you still afraid of using force in Zixiao Cave?"

"Just in case, you don't have to worry too much."

Zixiao Cave is located in the northwest of Yuexi Mountain, only eight mountains away from Xunwu Sect. The owner of Zixiao Cave calls himself Zixiao Linglong, but he is a thin old man. Because his left eye was seriously injured when he was young, and he was not fully cured after taking a lot of medicine, the nearby sects laughed and called him a purple blind man.

Back then Zixiazi led dozens of disciples to this area,

He took a fancy to a stone mountain full of natural caves, and immediately decided to take root on this mountain, and the mountain was renamed Zixiao Mountain by him.

Zixiao Cave has a very bad reputation, and there are constant frictions with the nearby sects. I don't know how to accept people, the morals of the disciples are getting worse and worse, and they steal and rob everywhere, causing chaos.

Some sects couldn't stand it, so they went to Zixiazi to argue, but Zixiazi also had the same unreasonable temper. I don't know what happened, but this time it actually set fire to the Mist-seeking Sect.

After dinner, Zheng Qiu felt extremely sleepy, so he crawled back to bed early and fell asleep. He slept and slept, and when he woke up, he found himself in a strange room.

"Master? Father? Mother?" He got up and shouted at the top of his voice.

Creaking, the door opened, and a healthy boy in his teens walked in. In the cold weather, the boy was wearing a cotton vest and shorts. His arms and calves were full of muscles. Zheng Qiu rubbed his eyes, it turned out to be the eldest brother, why is the eldest brother here?

"Second brother, stop shouting, I didn't sell you."

"Brother, where is this? Why are you here, brother?"

"This is Bihe Town, you are at the eldest brother's house now."

"Ah? Bihe Town. How long have I been asleep?"

"Uh, it seems like I slept for three days."

Zheng Qiu counted with his fingers, "Brother, isn't Bihe Town far away from our house? Why did I come here?"

"You have to ask our parents about this, oh, and your master, he also came together."

The big brother's answer made Zheng Qiu even more puzzled, suddenly ran so far, could it be that the master and the others have something to hide from him.

"Second brother, there are scones on the table and water in the pot. If you are hungry, eat some. I'm going to burn bricks."

"Brother, wait, where are the master and parents?"

"It seems that I went to the market to buy something. Don't run around. You are not familiar with this place, so don't get lost."

"Brother, no, I must stay at home obediently."

After the eldest brother left, Zheng Qiu moved the stool to the window, ate scones and looked at the street outside the window. He only came to Bihe Town once, and he came to buy things with the master.

There is a market in this town, and people from the nearby villages will come here to do business, especially during the New Year's Eve, when thousands of people can gather here, it is completely dark at first glance.

Zheng Qiu is not stupid, the master suddenly took him down the mountain, and ran to Bihe Town inexplicably, the rush along the way was not right after thinking about it. He knew that the master had something to say to him, but he believed in the master, and the master must be doing it for his own good.

Instead of trying to find the answer, it is better to listen to the master and do what the master says.

Wait, I have been asleep for three days. Zheng Qiu slapped his forehead and almost forgot the important matter.

He threw the cake back on the table and poured cold water from the jug. Raising his hand, he took off the thin-necked vase hanging around his neck, and changed the water for the grass inside.

This grass has a very delicate temper. If it does not change the water for two days, it will drop its leaves. While changing the water, Zheng Qiu muttered to the grass: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I overslept, don't blame me."
