Chapter 125 Mystery
"How did you find this place and identify the demon?"

Xiao Xunfeng was very puzzled and followed behind to ask.

"I'm not here to look for demons, I'm just looking for a life-saving elixir."

While searching, Chen Jing recounted the whole process.

From poisoning, he thought of the anti-malaria pill, and accidentally discovered that there was a group of rats spreading plague in the village.

Because he wanted to find the main ingredients for the antidote, he found the house of a wealthy man hiding in the next mountain.

"I came unexpectedly in the middle of the night, but the man was waiting for me dressed in full clothes. There must be something fishy going on."

"That's it?"

"That fat man weighing 400 pounds has a rather complicated set of clothes on. Even if someone helps him, it will take him at least a quarter of an hour to get dressed. Let me ask you, what would you do in the middle of the night if you don't sleep?"

Chen Jing suddenly changed the subject.

"I, I'm telling you what to do!"

Xiao Xunfeng couldn't help but raise his voice.

This caused everyone else to look at him with mysterious expressions.

"Don't be nervous. In short, there is something wrong with this guy. I didn't know he was a demon. I just wanted to take his things and kill him with a sword. You saw what happened later. He thought I knew his identity and bit my incarnation to death until my real body came to you to save him."

"Wait a minute, you think there's something wrong and you intend to kill him with your sword?"

Xiao Xunfeng stood still.

This is a question concerning the sect's image. The Qingnang Sect has always been known for saving the world and saving lives. Although it has not been mentioned much in recent years, this kind of evil behavior must never be spread.

It’s not that there’s a good reputation, the main reason is that there are bad neighbors looking for excuses to make trouble.

"The people at the foot of the mountain are skinny and have no firewood to cook, while the officials on the mountain are fat as pigs, and the night lights are bright. Since I came here as a village protector, I met this pest who oppressed the people. What's wrong with giving him a sword? If it were somewhere else, I would have hanged him alive."

Chen Jing said as a matter of course.

"well said!"

Suddenly, a strange old voice sounded.

Everyone was surprised.

Then, a small red flower by the wall trembled slightly and made a sound of exertion.

Then, swaying left and right, one arm was pulled out from the mud and supported on the ground, and then the whole body was pulled out.

"Hoo...cough cough."

A monster with a body like a ginseng, a head like a small red flower and the size of an adult appeared in front of everyone.

It was the gardener recorded in the scroll.

The gardener looked down and suddenly exclaimed "Oops!"

"I am so ashamed, so ashamed. I will go find some clothes first."

He covered his genitals and buttocks and walked around.

Chen Jing immediately took out a spare piece of clothing from his storage bag and handed it over. The gardener thanked him and put it on quickly.

"I am a spirit born here, and I love to play with these flowers and plants. I hate that rat. After coming here, I stole my achievements and harmed others for my own benefit. I am so angry, but I can't do anything. Today you drove away the rat, and I woke up and showed up to meet you."

The gardener posed towards Chen Jing.

Chen Jing helped him up: "This is what I should do. May I ask, old man, is this a medicinal field? Do you know the Mud Dragon and the Burning Grass Man?"

"This was my medicinal field in the past... As for the mud dragon and the straw man... they sound familiar, but I have been in a daze for a long time and I can't remember them clearly for the moment."

"Ah, is that so?"

Chen Jing looked at the other person's budding head, and couldn't tell whether the other person was being perfunctory or really hadn't remembered.

"I vaguely heard that you came here to look for crane grass to treat the people living at the foot of the mountain. I happen to be quite good at flowers and plants. If you are short of medicinal herbs, I will help you."

The gardener continued.

"That's really a great help, thank you for bothering me, Senior!"

Chen Jing turned around and spoke to the people behind him.

"Who among you knows how to make an elixir?"

They all shook their heads.

"Then I will stay in the medicinal field to make the elixir. Huiyin will stay here to take care of me. The four of you should return to the village quickly to avoid being taken advantage of."

"Listen to Senior Brother Chen!" Qingchi nodded.

Xiao Xunfeng suddenly found himself transformed from a leader into a supporting role. He felt a little depressed, but he could only keep it in his heart and nodded in response to the order.

at the same time.

Elder Ji, who was watching from outside, could no longer control his expression.

"The monster is so close?!"

In Yunshang Sect, all routes have been tried. The monsters win, the village guards win, and one of them is the village guards who saw through the monsters such as Mr. Rat at the beginning and won quickly...

But why did this gardener never show up?
Not only that, the monsters in the other two scrolls never appeared, which made them very puzzled.

What's the difference?

The Floating World Record is still evolving.

"Anemarrhena, Coptis chinensis, Pinellia ternata, Radix Rehmanniae, Herba Agrimoniae..."

The gardener muttered to himself, and the roots of his hands and feet went deep into the ground, radiating vital spiritual energy.

Around him, the spiritual herbs whose names were called out began to grow out of the soil.

Chen Jing opened his eyes wide.

"Old sir, can you make this spiritual plant grow quickly?"

"A simple method of inducing labor is not worth mentioning."

The gardener laughed and hummed a little tune leisurely.

Chen Jing was extremely envious. These magical herbs that were created were all growing well, without any signs of congenital deficiencies. They were several levels better than his own growth-promoting techniques.

The growth-promoting spell is only a first-grade spell, and the plants grown out of it all appear to have congenital defects.

Although there are higher-level spells with better effects for the Growth Technique, they require great affinity and understanding of wood-type spiritual power.

To achieve this kind of lossless induction of birth, one would need at least a fourth-grade growth-promoting spell, “Spring Comes”.

Above this, there is the fifth-grade spell "Resurrection of All Things" and the sixth-grade spell "Transformation of Yin and Yang". As for the sixth grade and above, most of them are no longer called spells, but Taoism. Taoism is generally composed of hundreds or thousands of spells of various grades, and is the core technology of large sects.

In addition, there are supernatural powers. Generally speaking, there is not much difference between the effects of supernatural powers and spells. It’s just that supernatural powers belong to the category of innate talents and can be mastered without deliberate study, while spells can only be mastered through learning.

Monsters belong to the latter. Each monster has its own unique magical power. Although they can also figure out many spells on their own, in essence, they are all extensions of their innate magical powers.

In Chen Jing's understanding, monsters are like cheats given by God that can skip the prerequisites of various spells and Taoist methods and directly achieve a certain effect. If it weren't for the monsters' adaptability, this world might have become a system centered on monsters.

"Here, use it to make the elixir."

"Thank you, old sir."

Chen Jing took out the alchemy furnace and started to try according to the steps on the recipe.

As a man who had conquered the third-grade, difficult elixir, the Daodan, this first-grade elixir was naturally no problem for him. He also discovered that there were two ways to refine this elixir. The water refining method was simpler than the conventional fire refining method.

Simply put, the water refining method is to cook soup, and ordinary people can make it without making any mistakes as long as they follow the steps.

It’s just that the fire refining method is faster and more friendly to cultivators.

"Echo, give it to the villagers."

Chen Jing handed over the pill.

Ying Huiyin took the pill, but did not leave in a hurry. Instead, he said.

"I noticed that victory here really doesn't seem to be achieved by fighting."

"Oh? Any ideas?"

"Ah."

Ying Huiyin nodded.

"Those three elixirs are more suitable for mortal use. I guess, perhaps the common people are the key to victory, not just preventing the demons from becoming stronger."

"You are the only one who has the same idea as me."

Chen Jing laughed and asked, "How can the people win?"

"It's just those few things that haven't changed in tens of millions of years."

Ying Huiyin replied.

Thank you for your rewards and monthly ticket support. I don’t see them for a week on weekdays, but today I suddenly received a lot, which was a bit surprising. I had planned to write 5,000 words in the early morning, but the more I write, the duller my brain becomes. Anyway, I will update one chapter first and continue after I wake up.


