Chapter 51 Alchemy; Another accident has occurred!
"You...you weren't joking with Grandpa, were you?"

"No, you're already so old. If that ancient doctor is so skilled, why would he take on such an old apprentice as you?"

"Besides, can you really learn how to treat and save lives?"

The old man wasn't entirely convinced, and he reasonably raised his doubts.

The so-called ancient doctors were those who specialized in learning and passing on the traditional medical skills of the Xia Kingdom.

The traditional medicine of the Xia Kingdom is complex and profound. People without talent usually have to start learning ancient medicine from elementary school and can only achieve something by the time they are in their thirties or forties.

When the old man was young, he also wanted to become a traditional Chinese medicine doctor, so he went to find an apprentice. He was only twenty years old at the time, but he was rejected because his talent was not good enough and he was too old.

Therefore, he had no choice but to turn to the business of medicinal herbs, which is related to medicine.

Later, he considered training his son to become a traditional Chinese medicine doctor, but his son didn't have the talent for it and was more interested in the medicinal herb business, so he gave up on that idea.

He also raised his two granddaughters after they were born.

Su Yan wasn't interested in medicine, and while Su Qing knew all the medicinal herbs and could recite them by heart, she couldn't prescribe medicine to save lives...

Therefore, when Su Qing said that she had become an apprentice of an ancient doctor, the old man was naturally surprised and expressed his doubts.

However, after listening to the old man's words, Su Qing only asked one question, "Is 24 years old very old?"

The old man nodded. "Even those kids without a foundation start university at eighteen, but by the time they graduate, they're around thirty or even over forty."

“You’re 24 and you’re not good at prescribing medicine. By the time you’ve mastered it… you’ll probably be halfway to the grave.”

The old man wasn't trying to belittle Su Qing; he was simply stating the facts.

Su Qing listened to the old man's words but replied nonchalantly, "It's never too late to start learning what you like."

"Even if you're already halfway to your grave when you finish your studies, so what? Isn't the learning process enjoyable?"

Old man: “…”

After listening to Su Qing's words, the old man fell into a long silence.

After a long pause, he suddenly slapped the bed and exclaimed excitedly, "You're right!"

“Starting tomorrow, no! Starting today, Grandpa will also learn medicine.”

Su Qing: ? ?

So sudden?

The old man asked, "Young lady, where is your master? Does he need any more apprentices?"

“Since he’s already taken you in at 24, why don’t you ask him if he would mind taking in a 71-year-old?”

Su Qing: "..."

To be honest, I do mind.

My master doesn't care about age, but she does care about looks.

Therefore, none of her senior brothers, sisters, junior brothers, or junior sisters are unattractive.

Her master wouldn't accept anyone who wasn't good-looking, but if someone was good-looking but unwilling to become her disciple, she would stop at nothing to take back the sect.

Junior Sister, Sixth Junior Brother, and Fifth Junior Sister were all taken back by Master.

"Xiao Qing, Grandpa is talking to you. When will you let me meet your master?" Seeing that Su Qing did not answer his question, the old man had no choice but to speak again.

Su Qing: "...I'm afraid I won't be able to see him."

My master ascended to heaven decades ago, how can I see him?
Unless she descends to earth to see him, not only will the old man not be able to see him, but even she herself will not be able to see him.

Upon hearing Su Qing's answer, the old man asked in confusion, "What's wrong? Is it inconvenient?"

“It’s really inconvenient, because she’s already gone up,” Su Qing said, pointing to the sky.

Upon hearing this, the old man subconsciously looked up, only to see a ceiling.

Above the ceiling is the third floor, and above that is the roof. "She came along too? Upstairs? On our roof?"

"..." Su Qing twitched the corners of her mouth, somewhat speechless. After a long while, she finally said, "Bring some more."

Old man:?

“A little higher and you’ll be in heaven…” The old man paused abruptly, “So, your master is dead?” Su Qing: “…Not dead, he ascended to heaven.”

After saying the word "ascension," Su Qing began to think about how to explain the word "ascension" to the old man, as well as the identity of her master.

However, the old man didn't think there was anything wrong with Su Qing's ascension. He looked like he understood and said, "I know."

What ascension? You mean to ride a crane to the west, right?

Xiao Qing is really something, she can't even use a single word properly.

only……

"Didn't you just become an apprentice not long ago? Since your master has already passed away, what about your medical skills?"

Su Qing: "You don't need to worry about that. Master has already arranged the specifics of how to learn."

Upon hearing this, the old man wanted to say something more, but Su Qing interrupted him, "Grandpa, you really should get some rest."

"Otherwise, with your physical condition, I'm afraid you won't last five days."

The old man didn't believe Su Qing's words. He felt great about himself and thought he had more energy than ever before.

However, since Su Qing had told him to rest, the old man didn't say anything more, but just said to Su Qing, "Remember not to leave, just stay at home."

Su Qing replied, "Okay, you should get some rest."

As she spoke, Su Qing tucked the blanket around the old man, then took out some calming incense from her storage ring, lit it, placed the incense burner by the bedside, and then left the room.

As soon as I stepped out the door, I saw two people standing outside: Su Yan and Shen Baisu.

Su Yan was talking to Shen Baisu.

She said, "I hope Ms. Shen will think it over carefully."

She had barely finished speaking when she noticed Su Qing. Su Yan coldly asked Su Qing, "You're out? How is Grandpa?"

Su Qing: "I'm going to rest."

Su Yan was still worried after hearing this, so she pushed open the door and went into the room.

Seeing this, Su Qing immediately made way for her and walked towards Shen Baisu, saying, "Didn't I tell you to go back first? Why are you still here?"

Shen Baisu raised an eyebrow at her and said, "I've taken you in for so many days, can't you take me in for a couple of days in return?"

Su Qing smiled, her eyebrows curving upwards, and said, "Of course."

As she spoke, Su Qing walked up to Shen Baisu, took her hand, and then followed the original owner's memories toward the room.

After returning to her room, Su Qing quickly closed the door.

"What did Su Yan just say to you? She gave you time to think about it."

Shen Baisu: "She thought that my close relationship with you was to cooperate with the Su family, and she wanted me to change my partner to her."

Immediately, Su Qing lost interest in the topic and asked Shen Bai about other matters, "Is there anything you need to do while you're here?"

She knew that Shen Baisu's decision to stay was not really to get her to take him in; he probably had something else to discuss with her.

Shen Baisu: "It's nothing much. I just guessed that you would be making medicine for the old man and would be short of medicinal materials, so I stayed."

After listening, Su Qing smiled and nodded, "It is indeed necessary."

Upon hearing this, Shen Baisu immediately took Su Qing into the space and began searching for the medicinal herbs needed for alchemy.

The Spirit Plant Peak of the Wuji Sect is filled with spiritual plants collected by more than a dozen generations of alchemists from the Wuji Sect, so it was easy for Su Qing to find all the medicinal materials on the Spirit Plant Peak.

After gathering all the medicinal herbs, Su Qing immediately began refining the elixir...

**
"Boom boom boom!"

"Second Miss, Second Miss, come quick! The old man is dying again!"

Around 10 p.m., there was a knock on Su Qing's door, and the housekeeper's voice came from outside.

At that time, Su Qing was still refining pills. She was at a crucial moment in the process, and if she was interrupted, she would have to start all over again.

Shen Baisu, who was cultivating nearby, also heard the commotion. She opened her eyes, glanced at Su Qing, and then said to her, "Senior Sister, you can continue refining the medicine in peace. I'll go take a look."
