The evil cultivation of immortality, starting from an apprentice in a medicine shop

Is the young martial artist who hunts ferocious beasts Qiu Zhen?

Shopkeeper Liu had a look of surprise on his face, his thoughts fluctuating in his heart.

The front foot is still ashamed that there is a good seedling right under my nose and I missed it in vain.

Unexpectedly, in a twist of events, the young martial artist gathered around him turned out to be from the Medicine King Valley.

This surprise came too suddenly.

Ankang's eyes were also full of brilliant colors.

Originally, his appreciation of Qiu Zhen came from the "skill of gunfire".

He was also immersed in this field, and he was very fond of this young man who was skilled in pharmaceuticals and full of spirituality.

But now, seeing Qiu Zhen become a martial artist, I feel even more appreciative in my heart.

Shopkeeper Liu and Ankang had a perfect understanding of each other. Without saying a word, they performed Qing Kung and flew down, shouting:

"Give way, he is from our Medicine King Valley."

"It's over, it's over, the ferocious beast is not for sale, don't think about poaching!"

Shopkeeper Liu was quite prestigious in Qingmu Town. When he shouted loudly, everyone made way for him.

"It's gone, it's gone."

A group of martial arts masters and city officials saw Shopkeeper Liu coming over to "recognize him" and drove everyone away, with regrets showing on their faces.

Just now, many people bid for the "Wild Boar King Beast", offering a high price of nearly two hundred taels.

On the market, the price of pork is about 30 taels of silver per pound, the meat yield rate of live pigs is 60% to 70%, and a thousand pounds of wild boar is generally worth 20 to 30 taels of silver.

Even the meat of ferocious beasts is more expensive, only a hundred taels of silver at most.

The purpose of offering a high price of two hundred taels was not simply to purchase wild boar meat, but to plot "people" and strike up a conversation with the young man first.

Anyone who has become a martial artist in his prime will be offered high prices and generous terms to recruit him, let alone a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy in front of him with outstanding potential.

However, the "young martial artist" was from Yaowang Valley, and Shopkeeper Liu took action personally, so outsiders had no chance.

Soon, everyone dispersed.

Shopkeeper Liu took Qiu Zhen into the city, and a group of pharmacy apprentices followed him, carrying the Wild Boar King, which was very lively.

Only Kang Zhuangyuan was stunned on the spot, with an uncertain expression on his face.

"How did he become a martial artist?"

Aoki Pharmacy, reception hall.

"Qiu Zhen, my young master has summoned you."

The people from Ankang have not arrived yet, but the sound comes first.

Qiu Zhen and Shopkeeper Liu stood up quickly, looking happy.

If it had been done before, if Qiu Zhen had become a martial artist, Shopkeeper Liu would have helped him contact the Yaowang Valley Mountain Gate and arrange follow-up matters.

But at this moment, Pharmacist An was in Qingmu Town, and shopkeeper Liu didn't say anything except some words of encouragement to Qiu Zhen.

"Qiu Zhen, your luck has arrived."

Shopkeeper Liu looked solemn and whispered:

"If you can get into Yaoshi An's eyes, you will skyrocket. You have to take advantage of it."

"Thank you, Shopkeeper Liu, for the tip."

Qiu Zhen bowed and was full of expectations. He immediately followed Ankang out of Qingmu Pharmacy and went to Anjia's house in the city.

Although An Yaoshi only lived temporarily in the city, the mansion he chose was the mansion of the "richest man in Qingmu". It was a large five-entry mansion with blue bricks and black tiles, and cornices and brackets. It was very grand.

Ankang took Qiu Zhen and Shopkeeper Liu through several corridors and courtyards, and finally came to a courtyard full of flowers.

"I've met Mr. An Yaoshi!"

The three of them bowed and saluted together.

"No need to be polite."

Pharmacist An was feeding a palm-sized jade centipede with a porcelain bottle. When he saw everyone, he threw the medicine bottle directly to the centipede. Then his eyes fell on Qiu Zhen, looking up and down for a long time, and then murmured:

"To break through a martial arts master so quickly, it stands to reason that you have to hone your skills for at least two years. Have you had some adventures recently? Or are you gifted?"

Shopkeeper Liu and Ankang were a little surprised when they heard this. Master An had already seen that Qiu Zhen wanted to become a martial artist?

Qiu Zhen was even more surprised.

He only met Yaoshi An once and had no interaction with him on weekdays.

The other party had only met him once in the backyard of the medicine shop, but he could tell at a glance that he had the potential to excel in martial arts.

Although the time when he was promoted to "Martial Master" was far different and not as accurate as his own soul's deduction, it was still extremely scary.

Facing such powerful people, Qiu Zhen felt nervous and explained:

"I've been really lucky lately. I've been encountering magical herbs and precious medicines one after another, and fighting ferocious beasts, so that I can develop my temperament."

"Hmm~"

Pharmacist An took a sniff, perhaps smelling the faint scent of precious medicine on Qiu Zhen's body, and nodded slightly:

"Come, let me feel your bones and see how your bones are!"

Qiu Zhen Lingtai's soul was restrained and his spiritual light was not leaked. He immediately came to Yaoshi An with a calm expression.

Bone touching is a type of physiognomy. By touching and stroking a person's skull, hand bones, and body skeleton, one can determine one's martial arts roots, talents, expertise, and even destiny, future achievements, etc. It is very mysterious.

Yaoshi An first touched Qiu Zhen's head, then his arms and torso.

After about twenty or thirty breaths.

Yaoshi An shook his head and said:

"Mortal roots, mortal bones, no spiritual body, and mediocre qualifications."

"Ah~"

Shopkeeper Liu and Ankang were a little surprised. They thought that Qiu Zhen, as a descendant of Qian Shou, was capable of practicing martial arts at the age of fifteen or sixteen, so he had some talent.

He never expected that he would be a mortal man, but his qualifications were not as good as theirs.

"As expected!"

Qiu Zhen was not disappointed. He had already expected it. If he had not built the foundation for a hundred days and awakened the "Yuan Shen", the realm of martial arts master would still be far away.

"There's no need for you to feel discouraged."

Seeing Qiu Zhen lower his head, Yaoshi An continued:

"You have been able to practice martial arts at the age of sixteen, and you have had opportunities one after another. I think you have a good destiny, but I don't believe in destiny, and I have never studied the way of destiny. If you have a chance in the future and meet an expert in the lineage of destiny, you can seek By chance, asking about your destiny will be of great benefit to your martial arts."

"Thanks for the advice, pharmacist!"

Qiu Zhen's face was filled with gratitude, and his thoughts were similar to those of An Yaoshi.

He also doesn't believe in fate or the so-called "fate" theory.

A golden elixir is swallowed into my belly, and my fate is determined by nature.

How can a person who practices Taoism be bound by fate?

"Ahem~"

Shopkeeper Liu coughed, cupped his hands and said:

"An Yaoshi, what will Qiu Zhen do next?"

Hearing this, Pharmacist An looked at Qiu Zhen, considered it, and said:

"There are two ways. One is to become a disciple at Yaowang Valley Mountain Gate and practice Huodu at the age of fifteen or sixteen. No matter what your foundation is or what your destiny is, you have the hope of becoming an innate martial artist. If you are lucky, you can become an innate martial artist in the gate. The disciple of the martial arts master is expected to become a direct successor and pass on the mantle. "

Qiu Zhen nodded slightly.

He knew this before, and going to Yaowang Valley Mountain Gate to study was the most conventional way.

Apprentices from Yaowang Valley who practice martial arts and master martial arts often go to Yaowang Valley Mountain Gate to learn skills from their masters.

"Secondly, I also have the right to teach martial arts. You can choose not to go to the Yaowang Valley Mountain Gate and stay in Qingmu Town to practice martial arts. If you follow the martial arts, I can learn everything in the mountain gate."

Qiu Zhen was stunned when he heard this, feeling a little unsure.

What does this mean?
