As spring passes and autumn comes, the medicine valley of Taixuanmen spends an unnoticed year in the changing of seasons.

The door of an attic opened, and sixteen-year-old Gu An, Meng Lang, and Li Ya walked out of the house. They turned around and saluted inside, and then Meng Lang closed the door.

All three of them breathed a sigh of relief and walked down the stairs.

When he arrived at his yard, Meng Lang couldn't help but complain: "I can talk about this for an hour. Can't he just pass the Baicao Lu in his hand to us?"

Li Ya shook his head helplessly, then he walked to the corner of the yard, picked up the sword stuck in the soil, and started practicing with it.

Although his spiritual root qualifications are mediocre, he comes from the royal family at least, and he has a set of exquisite swordsmanship in his hands. He plans to rely on this swordsmanship to make a comeback.

The Taicang Dynasty respected the way of cultivating immortals, and all civil and military officials in the dynasty practiced immortality. At the same time, the dynasty divided the people of the thirteen states into different classes, from low to high, as slaves, civilians, officials, and immortals.

Among them, merchants are also among the people. Only those who have achieved immortal status can be considered true nobles. Ordinary official status can only be held in towns and cities. The lord of the county and the governor of a state are all immortals, not to mention the imperial city of Changluo. , if you want to enter Changluo, you must be an immortal.

Many immortal families will banish their children with poor spiritual qualifications to ensure the excellence of their bloodline, and the royal family is no exception.

No matter how down-trodden Li Ya was from the Immortal family, he was not something Gu An could offend.

Because he is a slave.

During this year, Gu An specialized in picking herbs for Li Ya and Meng Lang. Most of the picking time was in summer or early morning, so his efforts made them fond of him.

Other times, such as planting, watering, fertilizing and other chores, Gu An did not help them, and they were too embarrassed to continue talking. Moreover, during planting, Zhang Chunqiu would stand in the attic and stare.

Gu An listened to Meng Lang chattering while watching Li Ya practice his sword.

Every man dreams of being a swordsman.

The three of them have been together for a year, getting along day and night, and have established a good relationship. Li Ya did not stop them from watching him practice swordsmanship. After all, he couldn't practice swordsmanship in hiding, and the Li family's swordsmanship also has a unique luck method. Just practice swordsmanship. It's no use.

Meng Lang talked for a while and finally ended without saying anything. He patted Gu An on the shoulder and said with a smile: "You don't usually practice martial arts, why are you so interested in swordsmanship?"

Gu An casually replied: "I am too lazy to practice because of my mediocre qualifications. I watched him practice swords because he was bored. Don't you think life in Yaogu is boring?"

"Yeah, it's so boring. You know, I have four maids at home to help me have fun. Did you know..." Meng Lang sighed with emotion, and then started talking endlessly.

Gu An was used to his boastful nature and didn't bother to expose it.

It wasn't until dusk fell that Li Ya just finished practicing his sword. He stuck his sword in the yard, wiped his sweat and said, "I'll go for a walk in the woods."

After saying that, without waiting for Gu An and Meng Lang to reply, he walked towards the gate of the courtyard.

After he left the yard, Meng Lang murmured in a low voice, "What do you think this kid is doing all the time in the woods?"

Gu An shrugged and said, "How do I know? He is a member of the royal family, so it is normal for him to carry some secrets. What if he goes back to become a prince one day?"

"How is that possible? He was sent out to work as a handyman."

"But you have to think about it, there is more than just Taixuanmen in this world, why do you come to Taixuanmen to work as a handyman?"

Gu An shook his head and said, Meng Lang was stunned by these words.

Immediately, Gu An walked to the well, scooped a ladle of water from the wooden bucket with a wooden ladle, drank it all, then put down the wooden ladle and walked out of the courtyard.

Meng Lang didn't follow Gu An. He knew what Gu An was going to do. He muttered something and went back to the house to practice.

Gu An came to a park where the second-level spiritual grass, Jingxin grass, was planted.

During this year, Gu An picked only first-class medicinal materials, and the herbs here are not ordinary plants. They take longer to mature. Many herbs need to wait several years to be harvested, so the herbs he picked within one year are not That’s too much.

Zhang Chunqiu said that if they wait another month, they can pick the tranquilizing grass in this park. It will be their first time to pick second-level medicinal materials. Gu An has been looking forward to it for a long time.

In his eyes, the dark blue meditative grasses are not medicinal materials, but lifespan values.

Sudden.

Gu An saw a Meditation Grass swaying. He took a closer look and his expression suddenly changed. He immediately climbed over the wooden fence and rushed over quickly.

He saw a palm-sized white-haired mouse poking at the soil under the Jingxin grass, as if trying to uproot the Jingxin grass.

Seeing Gu An rushing towards him, the white-haired mouse was so frightened that he immediately ran away, as fast as lightning, and quickly disappeared under the wooden fence at the edge of the place, escaping without a trace.

Gu An wanted to catch up, but when he saw that the meditation grass had been chewed and the stem was broken, he quickly squatted down and took out a piece of spiritual protection paper from his waist.

He quickly picked off the Jingxin grass with his left hand, and then wrapped the spirit protection paper around its roots with his right hand to prevent the spiritual energy from dissipating.

After bandaging, Gu An stood up.

[You successfully captured the 4-year lifespan of Quiet Heart Grass (Level 2)]

Before Gu An could smile, another line of text appeared in front of his eyes:

[Your lifespan exceeds a thousand years for the first time, turn on the lifespan detection function]

Lifespan exploration?

Gu An was secretly curious. He couldn't help but look at a kind of meditation grass on the ground, and thought to himself, 'Check the life span'.

[Calming Heart Grass (Level 2): ​​4/25/102 years (age/lifespan/lifespan limit)]

Can this tranquilizing grass have a maximum lifespan of one hundred and two years?

The life span taken away is also different from its original life span. It seems that the target's life span cannot be completely deprived. Most of the life span will be lost with the target's death.

Gu An didn't know the difference between life span and life limit. Perhaps it was related to cultivation.

He picked up the wrapped Jingxin grass, stood up and left, and walked towards Zhang Chunqiu's attic.

All the herbs in the medicine valley must be handed over to Zhang Chunqiu for safekeeping, and Gu An and the other two will receive the salary of Taixuanmen's menial disciples every six months, all of which are spiritual stones and elixirs for cultivation. Zhang Chunqiu will also give them seeds of herbs according to their performance.

Gu An's house has three Jingxin grasses planted, one more than Meng Lang and Li Ya. Meng Lang and Li Ya are not jealous of this.

As soon as Gu An walked out of the park, he saw someone climbing the stairs of Zhang Chunqiu's attic. It was an old man in black, carrying a book box and wearing a black cloth hat. The whole person looked very mysterious.

Looking at the old man in black from afar, Gu An's mind moved, and he checked the other party's lifespan. Then two lines of prompts popped up in front of him:

[Cheng Xuandan (Eighth Level of Qi Training): 104/120/180]

Cheng Xuandan!

The master of Medicine Valley, who is also Gu An's nominal master, he only heard Zhang Chunqiu talk about him. He has been traveling outside for many years, and today is the first time he has seen him.

The lifespan of Cheng Xuandan, who is 104 years old, is 120 years old, and the maximum lifespan is 180 years old. In other words, if nothing unexpected happens, he can only live for the next 16 years.

Gu An thinks that lifespan detection is very interesting, which can help him identify the cultivation and qualifications of others.

He guessed that the maximum lifespan may represent the height of his own qualifications, but this guess must be used repeatedly to be confirmed.

Cheng Xuandan walked into Zhang Chunqiu's house and closed the door.

Gu An walked into Zhang Chunqiu's courtyard, put the wrapped Jingxin grass on a long table, and then turned and left.

He returned to his own courtyard and first visited Meng Lang who was practicing in the house.

【Meng Lang (Qi Training Level 2): ​​17/90/190】

Well, he is indeed a waste.

After learning about Meng Lang's lifespan, Gu An did not talk much and quickly returned to his room.

He waited until night fell. When he heard Li Ya's footsteps, he got up and walked out of the room.

Li Ya was about to walk to his house, and when he saw him open the door, he couldn't help asking, "What's wrong?"

Gu An checked his lifespan and replied, "Master is back. How about we visit together tomorrow?"

【Li Ya (Qi Training Level 6): 18/210/1550】

Hiss——

The maximum lifespan is 1,550 years!

Is this the talent of the royal children?

Isn't Li Ya also a mixed spiritual root?

Gu An looked at Li Ya with a different look. Perhaps Li Ya is a buried genius who will shine sooner or later.

And this guy's cultivation has reached the sixth level of Qi Training Level!

What does it mean?

Playing the pig to eat the tiger?

The cultivation realms that Gu An came into contact with were divided from low to high, namely Qi training, foundation building, Dan formation, Yuanying, and Shen transformation. Each major realm was further divided into nine minor realms. Li Ya could reach the sixth level of Qi training at the age of eighteen. It was estimated that it would not take many years for him to build a foundation and be promoted to a formal disciple of Taixuan Sect.

Such a genius fellow must have a good relationship!

Upon hearing this, Li Ya raised his eyebrows slightly and nodded, saying, "Okay, you are very thoughtful. Call me when you get up tomorrow."

After that, he turned and walked towards his house.

Gu An watched him close the door, feeling deeply moved.

Sure enough, classes exist in any world, and the gap in status destined him and Li Ya to become true friends.

Gu An was not angry either. He had been a servant since he was a child and suffered from contempt and neglect. He did not blame Li Ya, who told him to look so mediocre.

It doesn't matter. With the golden finger that can take away life, Gu An felt that he would become an immortal sooner or later. Before that, what he wanted was to keep a low profile and spend the stage of life steadily.

If you want peace, you can't conflict with others, you can't cause trouble, the lower the better!

Gu An smiled, then turned around and closed the door.

The moon is very round tonight, and the moonlight is scattered on the stone steps of the courtyard like water.

...

In the early morning, in the lobby.

Gu An, Meng Lang, and Li Ya stood side by side. In front of them, Cheng Xuandan sat on a chair with a cup of hot tea in his hand, and Zhang Chunqiu stood next to him. This senior brother seemed very respectful.

[Zhang Chunqiu (Fifth Level of Qi Training): 54/110/175]

Gu An felt that the senior brother's qualifications were low, but on second thought, yes, there is more than one such medicine valley in Taixuanmen, and it is rare for a Li Ya to emerge.

What's more, compared with these people, Gu An was the most useless at the beginning.

Cheng Xuandan raised his cloudy eyes to look at Gu An and the other two, and said, "I have learned about your performance from your senior brother. Since we are meeting for the first time, I have to give you a gift."

"You can choose the Record of Herbs, Qigong, and the spell Poison Wood Vine. You can only choose one, and you cannot teach each other. If you are discovered by the master, you will be severely punished."

Meng Lang heard it and said first, "Master, I want Poison Wood Vine!"

Gu An thought that no one would want the Record of Herbs, so it would be better to let Li Ya choose first and do a favor.

Li Ya followed and said, "Disciple wants the Record of Herbs."

Gu An looked at him in surprise.

Brother, don't play by the rules?
