Lu Yang said goodbye to Zhou Lulu and came to Danding Peak. As soon as he arrived at the foot of the mountain, he smelled a strong medicinal fragrance.
"It is worthy of being Danding Peak. Even the air is full of fragrance. The legendary paradise and fairyland are just like this."
Lu Yang couldn't help but take two more breaths. He felt that his body was light and floating, as if he was about to ascend to heaven.
"This junior brother, don't take it!"
A shouting voice came from not far away. The owner of the voice was even more anxious when he saw Lu Yang took two more breaths.
"Junior brother, use the turtle breathing technique quickly. Hey, you seem to be a mortal, then cover your nose quickly. This smell is the smell of poison that I accidentally made when refining medicine..."
This was the last sentence Lu Yang heard before he fainted.
"What a hell of a place, even the smell is poisonous..." Lu Yang muttered, his body was unstable, and he felt that the whole world was spinning. Then his eyes went black and he fell to the ground with a plop.
Facts have proved that whether the smell is fragrant or not has nothing to do with whether it is poisonous or not. When Lu Yang woke up again, he saw a big face blocking his way, which frightened him and woke him up.
The man laughed embarrassedly: "Junior Brother Lu, you are awake, it doesn't hurt anymore?"
The identity of Lu Yang was written on the jade pendant.
Lu Yang blinked his eyes and felt sore all over, as if he had been rolled into a ball and then spread out with a rolling pin.
This is an alchemy room, with a strong medicinal fragrance and a much higher temperature than outdoors. There is a huge alchemy furnace in the middle of the alchemy room, surrounded by shelves with bundles of herbs and white porcelain bottles on them. The porcelain bottles should contain successfully refined pills.
There are piles of sketches of pill refining methods and white mice in cages on the ground. People who are not familiar with this place can hardly find a place to step.
There is only one bed in the alchemy room, which is the one Lu Yang is lying on.
"My name is Wu Ming. I'm sorry, Junior Brother. I was thinking about something while refining the elixir, and I lost my focus for a moment. I didn't control the firepower well, and I turned the elixir into poison."
"But don't worry. Although I often make poison by mistake, I have never poisoned anyone to death." Wu Ming was very proud.
... I'm even more worried when you say that.
Lu Yang got up with difficulty, moved his butt, and leaned against the junction of the corner of the bed and the wall, which made him feel better.
Lu Yang felt itchy on the back of his head. After a moment of silence, he asked, "Since I just inhaled poisonous gas, why is there gauze wrapped around the back of my head?"
Wu Ming explained embarrassedly, "I was distracted when I was carrying you, and your head hit the ground. You don't have to worry too much. As long as you are alive, I can cure you at Danding Peak!"
"The pills I have on hand are too strong and not suitable for you to take. You see, during the time you were unconscious, I specially refined pills for you that mortals can also take." Wu Ming asked Lu Yang to take two pills like offering a treasure.
The pills were golden in color, with three rings on them. Lu Yang knew that these were pill patterns, which meant that the refined pills reached a nearly perfect level.
Lu Yang still didn't dare to eat.
He just wanted to come to Danding Peak to ask for a few fasting pills, but before he did anything, he was already lying on the bed with gauze wrapped around his head.
If he ate anything else, I'm afraid that the King of Hell would praise him for not knowing how to live or die.
"It's not poisonous, really." Wu Ming assured again and again.
Seeing that Lu Yang didn't believe it, Wu Ming found a little white mouse to demonstrate.
The little white mouse seemed to know that it was about to die. When Wu Ming took it out, it squeaked and said goodbye to his wife and children.
The little white mouse took the pill and fell to the ground, without a breath. His wife and children cried miserably when they saw it, as if they had seen their own future.
Lu Yang: "..."
Wu Ming: "..."
"Accidents, all accidents. The white mice are small and will die after taking a little poison. It must be different if people eat it. I know what went wrong. Wait a moment, I will refine another furnace for you."
Lu Yang quickly diverted Wu Ming's attention: "Brother, you said you were distracted by thinking about problems. What are you thinking about?"
Wu Ming really diverted his attention. He summarized the wording: "Pills, pills, the focus is on the word "medicine" at the end. Pills can naturally cure diseases and save lives, but the Bigu Pill is not for patients to eat. Why is it also considered a pill?"
"If Bigu Pills are pills, then pills are not only for curing diseases and saving lives, but also for eating."
"If Bigu Pills are not pills, then what should Bigu Pills be?"
Lu Yang felt that he could not think of such a problem unless he took his brain out and put it in the alchemy furnace for three days and three nights.
"Speaking of the Bigu Pill, the only thing that can be eaten by mortals here is the Bigu Pill. It has strawberry, apple and watermelon flavors. Do you want some? It's not poisonous." Wu Ming took out a handful of colorful sugar beans.
Lu Yang thought of the King of Hell's eager expectations for him, and did not choose to accept Wu Ming's gift. Many people in Danding Peak are practicing refining Bigu Pills. No matter who they are, they are safer than Brother Wu Ming.
"Junior brother, remember to find me if you need to refine pills. It's free." Wu Ming said goodbye warmly when Lu Yang left.
Lu Yang limped and quickened his pace.
The next day, the seventh elder of Danding Peak learned of Lu Yang's tragic experience and sent Lu Yang a pill that could truly heal mortals, as well as a gourd of Bigu Pills.
Lu Yang recovered. ...
In the following month, Lu Yang lived a fulfilling life. He circled around the Sutra Library, Yanchuan Peak, and the Cave Mansion. Lu Yang greedily learned and absorbed the knowledge of immortal cultivation that he had never touched before, like a traveler in the desert who saw a clear spring and was hungry and thirsty.
A month later, everyone got their wish and became disciples of the elders. Meng Jingzhou became a disciple of the third elder, Man Gu became a disciple of the fourth elder, Li Haoran, who had the fire spirit root, became a disciple of the fifth elder, and Tao Yaoye, who had the immortal body of Yuhua, became a disciple of the sixth elder...
This made Lu Yang quite strange. He thought that Man Gu would become a disciple of the third elder like Meng Jingzhou. The third elder was a well-known physical cultivator in the world of immortal cultivation. No one dared to fight him. Man Gu, who was of the ancient barbarian bloodline, was most suitable to be taught by the third elder.
On the other hand, the fourth elder was a Confucian cultivator with profound knowledge and was not famous for his strength. I don't know why Man Gu chose the fourth elder as his teacher.
The fifth elder is good at refining weapons, and Li Haoran has a fire spirit root, so he is suitable.
Lu Yang has never seen the sixth elder, but he heard that she is a breathtakingly beautiful woman with a fairy body similar to Tao Yaoye.
Man Gu's apprenticeship to the fourth elder is not the most conspicuous. The most conspicuous thing is Lu Yang himself, who is a disciple of the mysterious sect master.
It is said that the sect master has not accepted any disciples for more than a hundred years and lives a free and easy life. The disciples talked about it and didn't understand why the sect master who was still in seclusion accepted Lu Yang as a disciple.
Under the envious gaze of everyone, Lu Yang was taken to Tianmen Peak, where the sect master was, by Senior Sister Yunzhi.
