Pills are extremely important to practitioners.
Whether it is to restore spiritual power, replenish qi and blood, or seek to break through the shackles of practice, you need to use the power of elixirs.
The wages of avarice is death.
For practitioners, elixirs are better than ordinary food.
Although Chen Changan has not witnessed it with his own eyes, he has lived in Taishang Jiutian Palace for so many years and has heard about some high-level elixirs containing Taoist charms. Just taking one pill can make ordinary people break through to the tenth level of the mortal realm in an instant. : Hundreds of apertures gather spirits!
He can even directly enter the spiritual realm and become a powerful person who can move mountains and fill seas with a single movement of his hands.
Transform into a dragon!
The eldest lady Ji Fengyan entered the spiritual realm three years ago, so the elixir she wants to refine now is naturally more precious and terrifying.
For this reason, the entire Ji family has more than 300 servants working hard for more than a year.
There are those responsible for planting spiritual herbs and elixirs.
There are those responsible for guarding and taming spiritual beasts.
There are also those responsible for collecting evil spirits from the five elements of heaven and earth and casting alchemy furnaces...
Chen Changan is responsible for planting the spiritual grass called "Purple Magnolia", which is an extremely hard job.
Not only are purple magnolias delicate and delicate, they must be replenished with fertilizer regularly and quantitatively, so there is no need to be careless.
The wind is too strong.
It's raining heavily.
Even if the sun is too strong.
During the growth process of the purple magnolia, one must always beware of the cranes and spiritual deer raised in the holy land coming to steal food.
Fortunately, in his previous life, Chen Changan was a top student who graduated from the College of Traditional Chinese Medicine. He was familiar with pharmacology and never cheated. Under his careful care, the dozen or so purple magnolias he planted grew well and most of them were fully mature.
Yesterday, the chief manager of the Ji family ordered that the eldest lady Ji Fengyin was about to start refining the elixir, and asked Chen Changan to pick the ripe purple magnolias early this morning.
But Chen Changan was so obsessed with practicing in the back mountain that he forgot to pick the purple magnolia for a while.
As a slave, in the Ji family and the Taishang Jiutian Palace, the eldest lady Ji Fengyan is the sky above their heads! It is absolute authority!
Delaying the eldest lady in refining the elixir will lead to death! !
Sure enough, when Chen Changan arrived at the medicine field, he saw the pot-bellied third manager standing on the medicine field, with his hands behind his back and an old face that was extremely gloomy.
Surrounding the third elder, there were more than a dozen majestic guards, all dressed in black and carrying long swords across their waists, looking majestic.
"Chen Chang'an, today is the day for the eldest lady to start refining elixirs. How dare you cheat and cheat!!"
"As a servant of the Ji family, I was born to live for the eldest lady. The eldest lady asked you to plant purple magnolia. This purple magnolia is your life!"
Although these guards were also born as slaves, most of them were in the second level of the mortal realm of nourishing blood and refining qi. Not to mention that Chen Changan had not broken through yet, even if he did, he would be unable to defeat four hands with two fists.
Moreover, what happened today was indeed his fault, Chen Changan's, and it would be wrong to bring this matter to the eldest lady.
Seeing that Chen Changan didn't talk back, the third manager was still unreasonable:
"The medicine is with you, but if the Purple Magnolia is destroyed, your life, Chen Changan, will be equal to it!"
Although Chen Changan did arrive late, there were quite a lot of preparations needed to start making alchemy.
Just picking the purple magnolia spiritual grass a little late will not affect the eldest lady Ji Fengyan's refining of the spiritual elixir.
But the third housekeeper is a bully, greedy person, and has always been arrogant and domineering in Ji's house. This matter may not be rectified.
"Don't worry, Third Manager, there won't be another time..."
"Next time? Haha!"
"It's delayed the eldest lady's refining of elixirs. It's not certain whether your boy will be able to see the sun tomorrow."
The third manager held a riding crop in his hand, while stroking his round belly, he stared at Chen Changan greedily:
"Boy, I heard that you have been saving money these years..."
Before the third manager finished speaking, Chen Changan frowned.
How could he not understand what the third manager meant? !
But...but the ten taels of silver hidden in his arms were the savings he had saved for more than ten years through frugality.
As a slave of the Ji family, it is not easy to have enough to eat on weekdays. After ten years of saving, he has only saved less than ten taels of silver, but this is Chen Changan's only hope.
Fearing that the money would be stolen by other slaves, Chen Changan only dared to hide it in his arms and carry it with him for so many years...
After ten years of hard work, coupled with the inheritance left to him by his parents, he was able to reluctantly purchase a century-old ginseng plant to help him break through the realm of cultivation.
If you hand it over, you will never have a chance to turn around! !
The dragon has reverse scales, which will kill you if you touch it.
This old guy, the third manager, is looking for death!
Looking at the greedy third manager, Chen Changan knew that even if he took out all the money, the third manager would not let him go.
Chen Chang'an, who had died once, had already shown himself to be fearless.
He swore that this old guy would be the first person to die in his hands! !
"Third Manager... you also know that picking this purple magnolia a little bit late will not delay the eldest lady from starting to refine the elixir."
Chen Changan just wanted to let the third manager know that he was not intimidated. If he was really desperate, he would not hesitate to go to the eldest lady.
In the Ji family, if there was no ruthlessness, I would have been swallowed up to the point where not even the bones and dregs were left...
The third manager's eyes were slightly stern, and with a wave of his hand, a dozen guards around him took a step forward at the same time, reached for the long knife at his waist, and surrounded Chen Changan.
Then he looked at Chen Changan, who had a determined look on his face, and his old face was extremely gloomy.
In the entire Ji family, no servant would be like a mouse meeting a cat when he saw his third manager. Only this boy in front of him was fearless and had repeatedly contradicted him. He must be dealt with today!
"You are right. If you pick the purple magnolia for a while late, even if you cause trouble to the eldest lady, the most you can do is give her a whip."
"But...but what if the Purple Magnolia is destroyed?!"
As soon as he finished speaking, with Chen Changan's face full of horror, the third manager suddenly waved the riding crop in his hand and whipped it towards more than a dozen purple magnolia plants in the medicine field.
"don't want!!"
Chen Chang'an's throat was raised, his eyes were split, and he rushed towards Zi Magnolia crazily, trying to block the third manager's riding whip with his own body.
But as soon as Chen Changan moved, a dozen guards around him took action instantly, and their fists fell on Chen Changan like a violent storm, suppressing him in an instant.
Uh-huh! !
Wherever the whip passed, more than a dozen fully mature purple magnolias were broken and fell into the mud.
"This is the order of the general manager. Chen Changan failed to take care of Zi Yulan. According to the laws of the Ji family, he will be executed!!"
"Bullying others... bullying others too much!!"
As soon as he finished speaking, with Chen Changan's face full of horror, the third manager pulled out his long knife and walked towards Chen Changan who was tied up.
Uh-huh!
Go in from the front chest, come out from the back chest, and pierce the heart with one knife! !
"Throw the body into the cliff of the back mountain and let's go have a drink!!"
Seeing Chen Changan who was only breathing in but not breathing out, the third manager snatched the money from Chen Changan's arms with a proud look on his face.
Look, he didn't get the money yet.
"What the third manager said is that there will be food and wine again tonight!"
"The third manager is still very capable. The young people admire him, admire him!"
"Chen Changan, this stupid boy, died in vain..."
Amidst bursts of ridicule, two guards carried Chen Changan's body and threw it straight into the cliff.
But what no one knew was that the black beads tied around Chen Changan's neck actually erupted into circles of black ripples after being contaminated with Chen Changan's blood...
Weird black beads seemed to come alive and penetrated into his body.
Then he plunged headlong into the heart that had been pierced by the long knife and had stopped beating...
Boom!
Boom!
Boom! !
