"Aren't you always secretive?"
"Why didn't you tell that boy anything today?"
In Mingxintang, the man in Tsing Yi who had not appeared for more than half a month appeared again, looking at Mr. Li who was handling the medicinal materials with interest.
"His spiritual qualifications are too poor, but his understanding is extremely extraordinary. It's so extreme. If he embarks on the path to immortality, the most important thing is to be patient."
"If you can't bear your temper, no matter how good your understanding is, it's meaningless."
Mr. Li was busy with his own business and didn't even raise his head.
"Right."
The man in green clothes nodded thoughtfully: "I have been paying attention to him for the past half month. This guy has a really good understanding."
"Although the qualifications are just pseudo-spiritual roots, as long as this level of understanding can be maintained, entering the world of immortality in the future will be much smoother than ours."
At this point, the man in green seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly looked at Old Li suspiciously: "Old Li, you don't want that kid to inherit your mantle, do you?"
Mr. Li was speechless and was still busy minding his own business.
Seeing this, the man in green took out a medical book from his arms, pretending to read it, and said to himself: "No matter how I read this medical book, it doesn't feel like a secular medical book."
"Knowing people and medicines, are you learning alchemy?"
Speaking of this, the man in green looked at Mr. Li with great interest: "Old man Li, you hid it deeply enough!"
"Alchemist, Old Man Li, why are you willing to stay in this miserable place for so many years?"
Mr. Li put down the medicinal materials and said with a natural expression: "If I were an alchemist, could I become what I am now?"
"It's just some secular medical books, plus some basic knowledge acquired over the years, and I figured out something."
"If you say it's alchemy, it's barely okay. Based on my years of thinking, getting started with alchemy should be pretty much the same as what I've been studying."
"After all, the most basic foundation of alchemy must be the understanding of medicinal materials and practice..."
"If I have the opportunity to come into contact with alchemy, I think I have some basic skills."
The man in green still looked suspicious, but he couldn't find a reason to refute.
Mr. Li looked at the man in green with a smile: "If you want to learn, if you give me enough spirit stones, I can teach you."
The man in green's doubts disappeared and he waved his hands repeatedly: "If it's true alchemy, then I won't say anything, but you are just speculating, I don't have this blessing..."
"However, you are still passing it on to that kid with your blind speculation, aren't you afraid of misleading others?"
Mr. Li sneered, but ignored the man in Tsing Yi and continued to work.
The man in Tsing Yi lowered his head and glanced at the medical book in his hand, then looked at Mr. Li who was busy. Then he threw the medical book on the table and walked to the side room.
Mr. Li glanced at the medical books on the table, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, shook his head, and seemed to focus on the medicinal materials in front of him again...
…
"A book is missing?"
In the bedroom, Chu Mu looked at the bookcase in front of him and frowned deeply.
A row of bookcases display all kinds of books he has read since he came to this world.
There are one hundred and three volumes in total, thirty-eight volumes of medical books and sixty-five volumes of other various books.
There is one missing book, which is not conspicuous, but the medical books are placed in a separate compartment. He often reads them, and the placement of each book can be said to be familiar to him.
One less volume would be extremely conspicuous!
"Someone has been here..."
Chu Mu pulled out one of the medical books and had another judgment in his mind.
The title of the book, Medicine Theory, came from Mr. Li's place. It was originally placed in the middle, from left to right, in the twelfth volume, but now it appears in the fourteenth volume.
Chu Mu was sure that he remembered correctly. Each position had its own purpose, so that he could hold it in his hand immediately when he wanted to read through it.
Chu Mu looked around the room. There was nothing unusual in the rest of the room. Even the wardrobe showed no signs of being disturbed.
"Someone sneaked into the room, then... rummaged through his bookcase, and eventually... stole a medical book?"
Chu Mu's face looked a little solemn. In the past, he might not have paid too much attention to a medical book.
But today, Mr. Li personally said that in the world of cultivating immortals, knowing people and medicine... seems to be related to the legendary alchemy.
Then these medical books in front of him are not just the inheritance of secular medical skills.
Even though he has never really come into contact with the world of immortality, it doesn't take much to know that this kind of inheritance is precious.
After all, even in this Nanshan Town, reading and literacy are expensive, and ordinary books in bookstores are expensive...
Obviously it cannot be just a one-sided phenomenon, it must be the trend of the entire era.
But...he was just thinking about it, and he never revealed anything to anyone...
And... he seems to have just returned from Mingxintang, right?
In other words, the book was stolen before he knew about the world of immortality!
Chu Mu looked around the room, then walked out of the room, checking room after room, but found nothing unusual.
In the end, Chu Mu stood in the courtyard, with a bit of worry on his brows.
The ignorant are fearless, and the more they know, the more worried they become.
Without hesitation, Chu Mu went out decisively and headed straight towards Mingxintang.
Even if there is only the slightest possibility, it is definitely not something he can face now.
He has no ambition to investigate secretly.
Even if the sky falls, a tall person will have to hold it up.
He hurriedly walked into Mingxin Hall, but within a moment, Chu Mu appeared outside Mingxin Hall again.
Chu Mu looked a little confused, and there seemed to be an extra medical book in his hand.
And this medical book is exactly the one he thought was stolen just now...
The most bizarre thing is that Mr. Li actually said that he left this medical book behind?
After being confused for just a moment, Chu Mu tightened his hands on the medical book and didn't hesitate at all.
Whether it was left behind or stolen, Mr. Li said yes, that was it.
After all, Mr. Li couldn't be idle and steal another medical book that had been given to him, and then claim that he, Chu Mu, had left it behind, right?
If he is ignorant, he is asking for trouble.
"I wonder if there is anything like a storage bag in the world of immortality..."
Chu Mu thought to himself, thinking that if he steps on the path to immortality in the future, he will have to get something for storage as soon as possible, and he will have to take all his belongings with him!
Whether his own things are useful or not, that is his own business. If others care about him, that is another matter.
What's more, he's still wandering around his own home...
"The quality of this roll of cloth is not good. Look, a large piece of it is exposed..."
While he was thinking, a voice came to his ears, but it attracted Chu Mu's attention.
Looking around, in the cloth shop on one side of the street, the middle-aged shopkeeper was holding a roll of cloth and talking, while a woman stood beside him helplessly.
This woman seemed to be the little widow next door to his house.
Chu Mu raised his eyebrows and looked at it a few more times.
If he remembered correctly, this little widow was not living a good life.
After the mummy incident, the He family regarded the young widow as the savior of her father, and kicked her out of the house.
In this era, carrying the reputation of being a father-in-law and being a lonely person, life is difficult even if you don’t think about it.
After this little widow was kicked out by the He family, she seemed to be living in her original home, doing some girly things every day to make ends meet...
After stopping for a while, Chu Mu finally didn't stop any longer.
Although I have some ideas, things are different now.
There is no such thing as a long-term love between children, how can it be as beautiful as cultivating immortals and hoping for eternal life!
