Chapter 1460 The Medicine People on Purple Mountain
Halfway up Wuzhu Mountain, beside the earth-fire alchemy furnace.

Li Shang frowned.

Most of the top alchemists have past inheritance and generally know about human medicine, but there are indeed a small number of alchemists who have never been exposed to the 'human medicine' method.

For example, the woman named Wudang in front of him was only good at cultivating Yuan, forging spirits, creating fortunes, and Bigu elixirs. It was basically impossible for this kind of person to come into contact with human medicine.

Human medicine is a type of forbidden medicine, which uses human beings as a medicine furnace to refine the body of the medicine.

Among human medicines, the most widely circulated is Bigan's Qiqiao Exquisite Heart.

In the dynasty of heaven and earth more than a thousand years ago, it was common practice to use people as medicine and monsters as medicine.

When the Immortal Court destroyed the world, the use of humans as medicine was suppressed, leaving only the use of demons as medicine. For example, demon treasures, demon pills and other items are still widely used in elixirs, especially good luck elixirs that often use demon elixirs as the medicine. The introduction also made countless demons hate it.

Not mentioning the use of demons as medicine, the Wudang alchemist who was discussing alchemy in front of him mentioned human medicine.

Li Shang thought for a moment, and then slowly spoke.

"You don't have to be a Taoist friend. Human medicine is a medicine that transforms the human body. Although the Life and Creation Pill is good, Taoist friends still need to be careful. Don't be regarded as a devil and be rebelled against," Li Shang advised.

"My Creation Pill allows monks in the True Self Realm to repair their bodies," Zhang Xuezhou said, "It's not a big deal to use some ginseng as medicine!"

"Why is this not a big deal, human body... ginseng?"

Li Shanggang was about to argue, but suddenly he heard that the other party's expression seemed to have turned to the other side.

This made him react belatedly.

"What Taoist Fellow Wudang said is that ginseng can be used as medicine," Li Shang said: "If Taoist Fellow Taoist chooses medicine, you also need to choose some ginseng babies with the essence of heaven and earth!"

"It turns out this is human medicine, thank you fellow Taoist, I understand!"

"I still don't know how you plan to refine this elixir?" Li Shang asked.

"That's right, I..."

A circle of ripples appeared in the air, and the voice slowly faded away.

"Human medicine? Life and Creation Pill? Can it cure the injuries of monks in the True Self Realm?"

Yang Po disappeared from his perception, while Li Shang paced back and forth.

He took out the recipe for refining the Holy Blood Pill, and the other party took the Life and Fortune Pill in return.

Li Shang explained in detail, and the other party also went into every step in detail, and the control method of the other party's elixir was strict to the extreme.

"Is the human medicine needed here a ginseng medicine or a human medicine?"

After the other party left, Li Shang had some doubts.

An elixir that can cure the injuries of monks in the True Self Realm must also be able to heal monks in the Solipsistic Realm and Supernatural Power Realm. This can be called the ultimate type of elixir.

If Li Shang doesn't have the slightest idea of ​​refining a replica of the Shengsheng Creation Pill, it's simply impossible. His heart has never reached this level.

"Whether it is yes or no, you will know after refining one!"

There is no shortage of century-old Codonopsis pilosula, Atractylodes macrocephala, Poria cocos, Zhigancao, Angelica sinensis, Ligusticum chuanxiong, White peony root, Rehmannia glutinosa, Zhihuang Qi, and the Huainan Palace also has 'human medicine'.

If ginseng essence is needed, Li Shang is really in a dilemma. After all, the Huainan Palace only has thousand-year-old ginseng, which has not yet turned into a spirit.

But if it comes to 'human medicine', the Huainan Palace has hundreds of them in stock.

For Li Shang and others, the lives of these human medicines are not equal to theirs. They are just kept in captivity like pigs and sheep and can be used when needed.

He stood up and called another medicine slave to come over.

"Go to Zijin Mountain to find Zuo Wu and ask him for a 'Human Medicine'," Li Shang ordered.

"only!"

"Let him give the younger ones some clean blood." Li Shang added: "Don't push the old ones over to me!"

"only!"

"If he is not willing, you can tell him that I want to try to refine a strange medicine called Shengsheng Good Fortune Pill. This medicine can cure his old injuries!"

Li Shang added again that when nothing could be found, he asked the medicine slave to run down the mountain quickly.

"Purple Mountain?"

Zhang Xuezhou was discovered by Li Shang while he was wandering, but as long as he stood high enough, it would be difficult for the other party to discover him.

He was far enough away that he couldn't hear Li Shang's voice very clearly, but he could only hear the location and a few words clearly.

After a brief thought, Zhang Xuezhou's yang soul had drifted down the mountain, closely following the medicine slave who was running through the mountains as if on the ground.

Li Shangneng found traces of Zhang Xuezhou's Yang soul, but the medicine slave was obviously several levels lower. Even if Zhang Xuezhou flew above the opponent's head, he didn't notice anything.

"The human medicine was not placed in Wuzhu Mountain where the elixir was made, but it was placed in Zijin Mountain where it was smelted?"

Zhang Xuezhou didn't think about this arrangement for a while. He followed the medicine slave and kept looking at the distance of the winding mountain road.

It is a mountain that occasionally rises with red light.

Compared to the fireworks of the five yam stoves, the flames of the smelting workshop were extremely fierce, and there were many people burning charcoal in this mountain.

The red flames continued to flicker in the mountain, and Zhang Xuezhou became more focused and alert, guarding against being discovered by the monks of Purple Mountain.

Nearly half an hour later, Zhang Xuezhou stepped into the Purple Mountain and began to hang far behind Yao Nu.

He saw Yao Nu entering a large house with blue bricks and red tiles, then taking out a token and running towards the center of the mountain.

Following the medicine slave back and forth, Zhang Xuezhou saw a lot of thatched houses in a dark place, and many women washing clothes by a pool near the thatched houses.

"On the order of Mr. Zuo Wu, I came here to test the medicine. If the medicine is successfully tested, you can go down the mountain!"

The medicine slave entered the area, holding the token and shouting.

But no woman responded to him.

The medicine slave didn't mind everyone's attitude, he glanced at the many women.

The older one was ignored by him, while the younger one was constantly compared, trying to pick out a woman who was more attractive to his eyes.

Although he is just a medicine slave, he is Li Shang's medicine slave, and his status is even comparable to that of some ordinary guest officials.

Yao Nu has seen a lot of women, and these village girls are really unsightly to him, and it's hard to find a prettier one.

After searching for a long time, he caught a young woman with her head lowered.

"It's up to you." Yao Nu laughed and said, "Go to Wuzhu Mountain with Uncle Li!"

"I'm not a guest, you people are trying to harm us!"

The young woman struggled for a while, making bursts of patois-like responses. The strength was so strong that the medicine slave could not hold her firmly.

He wanted to slap her away for a moment, but he was afraid of damaging these village girls, who looked pretty good, so he had to bear a few punches.

"What do you want to do? Li is here under orders. If you dare to stop him, be careful about the lives of your men!"

After he buckled the young woman back, he felt his head make a bang, and a laundry stick split into two parts and flew out from his head.

This made Yao Nu furious.

He shouted loudly, stretched out his hand and struck back at the attacker.

After a dull impact, an old woman in her fifties was knocked away and she lay on the ground, kicking her legs and struggling.

Seeing many women standing up with laundry sticks in hand, the medicine slave couldn't help but feel a little frightened for a moment. He shouted repeatedly and called the guards on Purple Mountain to come to help.

"You medicine slave is so brave. We usually don't dare to offend people like them from Zhangjia Village," a guard hissed in a low voice.

"It's a good thing that their men are all forging iron, otherwise I would have killed you if I shot you!"

"No matter how hard I beat these tough guys, it's useless!"

"If we hadn't divided them up and used the men to control the women, and the women to control the men, how could they be so obedient!"

"These women are taller and stronger than us men. I really don't know how they grow so tall!"

"Bah!"

The guards rushed forward to help, and there were some who took the opportunity to take advantage of the woman.

The gleaming sword made many women stare angrily, and some of them cursed angrily.

"Jiangang, Zhang Jiangang, my daughter~"

a washerwoman shouted.

"Zhang Jiangang? Gang Niu?"

There are very few knowledgeable people in Zhangjiazhuang, and the names are rarely nice. Even Zhang Xuezhou doesn't like his real name, so he adopted a name from the real world.

The same is true for the names of Zhang Changgong, Zhang Cigong, Zhang Yaogong and others. The difference between these names and Zhang San and Li Si is not big. Among them, there are cases of naming based on seniority, following the father's name, or both. Zhang Jiangang's name just follows. Seniority and father's name.

Zhang Xuezhou usually doesn't play much with the younger generation of men, and even less with women.

But Zhang Jiangang still left some impression on him. After all, he had never beaten the opponent when he was young, and was pushed to the ground by this girl. Zhang Xuezhou even taught Zhang Jiangang how to write his name.

If no one else teaches Zhang Jiangang how to write his name, he will definitely write his name as Zhang Laohu.

After many years, the young man had grown thicker and stronger, and his appearance had become completely unfamiliar to Zhang Xuezhou.

Some older women are aging, making it almost difficult for Zhang Xuezhou to see their original appearance.

He checked for a long time before he concluded that these women were once members of Zhangjiazhuang.
