An Ordinary Path to Immortality

The alchemist and shopkeeper looked in the direction of Fang Ping's finger, and then discovered that there was an untimely empty space in the row of bags in the corner.

The alchemist snorted lightly and said nothing.

He just glanced displeasedly at the pale-faced boy who was holding the ice crystal grass.

The shopkeeper even smiled, but looked at the other party without saying a word.

Bai Ding continued: "If the alchemist must let this junior find the Corydalis, I can only boldly ask this brother to take out the Corydalis from the storage bag."

The alchemist nodded slightly and said: "Okay, very good. You passed the test. From now on, you can stay here and be my alchemist."

Fang Ping quickly bowed and said, "Thank you, Master Alchemist, for taking me in."

Waving his hand, Master Zhang looked at the other young man standing aside and said in a cold tone: "Shao Qing, I won't pursue the matter this time. If there is a next time, you can go on your own. I don't accept waste here. "

Shao Qing, who was originally nervous, finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing the alchemist's words. He quickly kowtowed to the alchemist to thank him and repeatedly promised that he would never do it again in the future. This made the alchemist's face look a little better.

But even though he passed the level of alchemist, the shopkeeper was not going to let him go.

"Shao Qing, where is Corydalis?" the shopkeeper asked.

"Here, here." Shao Qing's face, which had just softened, turned ugly again.

Because only then did he remember that according to the rules of the Evergreen Dan Pavilion, items from the Dan Pavilion must not be put into personal storage bags.

If there is something that needs to be put into a storage bag for storage, transportation and temporary storage, you can only use the storage bags provided by Dange.

But just now, in order to cause trouble for Fang Ping, Shao Qing put the bag containing Corydalis vine into his own storage bag.

"Take it out!" the shopkeeper scolded softly.

"Shopkeeper, I'm really just obsessed for a moment. Please, please spare me this time."

While begging for mercy, Shao Qing quickly put the bag of Corydalis back to its original place.

Fang Ping looked at the shopkeeper curiously. He didn't know that Evergreen Pill Pavilion had such rules.

"You still dare to do this in front of me. You really don't take me seriously."

The shopkeeper came to Shao Qing and said, "Remove the mark on your storage bag and let me check if there is anything else in your storage bag."

Shao Qing's face turned red and he felt regretful.

Although they know there are such rules, few people usually follow them.

Especially the low-level herbs in their alchemy room are not worth many spirit stones themselves, and they usually use their own storage bags when it is convenient.

In addition, alchemy often fails, so the cost is high. In addition, people rarely come to count such low-level elixirs, so as the only alchemy boy, he occasionally misses one or two elixirs, or secretly memorizes the elixirs. Grass is also common.

This is why he was so resistant to Fang Ping after meeting Fang Ping and deliberately tried to embarrass Fang Ping.

Because he knew very well that once Fang Ping became an alchemy boy, he would not have so many opportunities to steal the elixirs and spiritual herbs from the Alchemy Pavilion.

However, because of his impulsiveness, it led to the current disaster.

He knelt down in front of the shopkeeper and begged, but the shopkeeper was determined to check the other person's storage bag.

Seeing that the shopkeeper refused to let go, Shao Qing knelt down in front of Master Zhang and begged him to intercede.

The alchemist looked at Shao Qing, who was kneeling on the ground and kowtowing as if he were pounding garlic. Thinking of the three years that he had served him, he finally softened his heart:

"Shopkeeper, Shao Qing does go above and beyond on weekdays. This is all due to my lax supervision and incompetent teaching. But after all, he has followed me for many years and is easy to use. Now I will drive him away. Just rely on Fang Ping." Young people who have just arrived may not be able to do the job in a short time.”

The shopkeeper is also a human spirit, and he knew immediately that the alchemist wanted to excuse Shao Qing.

He is a shopkeeper who only looks after the alchemy pavilion for his boss. After all, he is also a part-time worker, and there is no need to provoke an alchemist for a trivial matter.

After all, in the world of immortality, the status of an alchemist has always been extremely noble.

At this moment, even if the master is here, as long as the alchemist speaks, the master has to give some face.

So he borrowed the donkey at the foot of the slope and said, "Master Zhang, if this happens, how can we convince the public of the rules of the Evergreen Alchemy Pavilion? How can I explain it to my employer?"

"Let's do this, shopkeeper. I will compensate ten spirit stones in the name of Shao Qing. This will be Shao Qing's punishment, and the shopkeeper can have an explanation to the outside world."

With that said, Master Zhang took out twelve spiritual stones and handed them to the shopkeeper.

As for the two extra coins, they are naturally a benefit to the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper put away the spirit stone and said politely: "Since the alchemist has asked for mercy, I will be lenient, but this will not happen again. I will inform everyone in the alchemy pavilion later to serve as a warning."

"In that case, thank you very much, shopkeeper."

"Master Zhang is polite, but we are just serving our boss."

The shopkeeper and the alchemist left after a few polite words, leaving an old man and two young men looking at each other.

Fang Ping lowered his head and was speechless. He originally wanted to work hard and perform well as an apprentice, but something like this went wrong as soon as he came.

Not only did he offend his fellow alchemist, but he also caused the alchemist to lose his money.

Although he was right, at this moment, seeing how much he valued Shao Qing made him unavoidably worried. n

"Fang Ping, right? You don't have to worry, what happened today is not your fault."

Master Zhang seemed to notice Fang Ping's worries and offered words of comfort.

Fang Ping quickly admitted his mistake and said: "The disciple did not know that there were such rules in the Dan Pavilion. If the disciple had not pointed it out deliberately, perhaps the shopkeeper would not have discovered it."

"It's okay, it's just a few spirit stones, don't take it to heart." Fang Ping's attitude satisfied the alchemist. After comforting Fang Ping, he scolded Shao Qing again: "You are a piece of trash. You have been with me for three years. I didn’t learn any real skills, but I learned a lot about sneaking around.”

After scolding him, he did not listen to Shao Qing's words of gratitude, and instead began to ask Fang Ping about his understanding of spiritual herbs and elixirs and alchemy, what kind of elixir books he usually read, and whether he had practiced elixir techniques.

After learning that Fang Ping had an illustrated book of herbs and a chronicle of Qi Yun's spiritual objects, the alchemist went through some tests and discovered that Fang Ping had no complete memory of these two classics.

But I can answer the parts I remember fluently.

So Zhang Alchemist gave Fang Ping a scroll and asked Fang Ping to compare the two classics to memorize the contents, and to test Fang Ping's learning progress every three days.

Fang Ping took the book and looked at it, and was immediately shocked.

Because this book clearly says "Thirteen Prescriptions for Qi Refining".

Opening the book, Fang Ping saw that the book actually recorded thirteen types of elixirs commonly used during the Qi refining period, as well as the methods for refining the elixirs.

"Alchemist, I can't do this. It's too expensive."

"Why is it so valuable? It's just a classic book on elixirs. It doesn't record rare elixirs at all. You can buy them in any alchemy shop." The alchemist said nonchalantly.

"Ah?" Fang Ping said in surprise: "Isn't it said that the alchemy recipe is a secret that is not passed down by every alchemist?"

Alchemist Zhang laughed and said, "That's what I said, but the world of immortality has been passed down for countless years, and many secrets and classics are no longer great secrets by now."
