Cultivation of Immortals Begins with Drilling Wood To Make Fire - Chapter 559

  Chapter 559 [Back to a peaceful life]

  After sending Mu Anning to fix the meals, Sang Ziping sat where his apprentice had just sat and chatted with Fang Chang.

  The two have had occasional correspondence in the past few years, so they have a lot of understanding of each other’s situation. They chatted about their own practice, about the upcoming gods conference, about the herbal medicine in Yunzhong Mountain, the newly opened medicine field in the back of Nanping Mountain, and the years when they were together in the Western Regions to eliminate demons.

   “Did Brother Sang tell An Ning about his marriage? Where is he from?” Fang Chang asked.

“It’s not the marriage I told him. Ever since An Ning turned 20, I haven’t stopped the matchmaker from coming.” Sang Ziping said with a smile: “An Ning is also considered a good-looking talent, and she has a lot of skills. This small courtyard The threshold was almost broken.”

“The final choice was the daughter of a dutiful family in a village ten miles away. That family has been farming for generations. Although it is definitely not a scholarly family, the girl is literate, can chat with An Ning, and is also pretty. So the two sides have no objection, according to After the custom passed Nacai, a yard was built in the village and a wedding was held.”

  Next, Sang Ziping looked at the sky outside, with a slightly sad tone:

“Of my three apprentices, the eldest has been wandering outside the world of mortals all year round, living in no fixed place, rarely heard from, and changing identities constantly. The second has cut off his path of cultivation and devoted himself wholeheartedly to mortal careers. Now he can inherit my There are only three disciples left in this small clinic.”

  Mu Anning carried a food box and walked quickly into the courtyard.

He turned around and closed the courtyard door, and hung up a sign saying “Non-emergency illness” sign, then set up bamboo tables and stools in the courtyard, arranged several dishes in the food box on the bamboo table, and brought a jar of medicinal wine And cups and cups, and then called the two people in the room to come out for lunch.

  The three of them sat at the table. Sang Ziping took the altar of medicinal wine and poured it with Fang Fang: “The fine wine brewed on Xianqi Cliff is very good. Let’s try the medicinal wine here today.”

“oh?”

  Fang Chang raised his hand, took a sip of the wine, and tasted it.

   Sure enough, the flavor is unique.

  The wine is just ordinary sorghum wine, but inside the jar, there are many sliced ​​elixir soaked in it. The carefully matched elixir, soaked in the wine, makes the wine in the jar full of spirit and fragrance.

  It’s a pity that Fang Chang is already an extraordinary person, and his cultivation base is extremely high, so he can’t realize the magical effect of this medicinal wine.

   “It’s really good, how long has this wine been steeped?”

“It’s also fate, it’s been five years now.” Sang Ziping said with a smile, “At that time, I got a lot of elixir from the mountain, but I didn’t have enough jade boxes, and I wasn’t ready to start the alchemy furnace. In order not to waste, I wrote a recipe.”

   “Both of us, master and apprentice, cut the elixir into slices and mixed it according to the prescription. We bought a few jars of wine from a small town down the mountain and soaked it in it. We put the elixir into the wine and opened the lid to seal it.”

   “Not long ago, when An Ning got married, I opened this jar of wine. After that, I drank with An Ning and my big apprentice who heard the news and came to congratulate my junior brother.”

  The three of them poured wine again, touched each other lightly, and drank it down in one gulp.

  Fang Chang went on to say:

“I also bought a single furnace on Xianqi Cliff, and I occasionally refine some pills for fun, but the raw materials used are mainly herbal medicines, and I haven’t tried refining panacea yet. I heard from An Ning today that you are preparing a Furnace elixir, this time I have to take a good look at it.”

  Sang Ziping said with a smile: “Using elixir to make alchemy and using herbal medicine to make alchemy, the overall difference is not big and subtle, but there are some tricks in it. I will explain it to Brother Fang when the time comes.”

“The furnace can be started almost tomorrow. Thanks to the few boxes of elixir that Brother Fang brought this time, it just made up for the original shortage. There are still a few plants that have more medicinal properties. I plan to replace the previous ingredients. There are a lot of elixir for the furnace, so make sure it is safe.”

   “Here! Try this dish.”

  After saying this, Sang Ziping signaled Fang Chang to hold the vegetables.

   “In the past few years, the world has been peaceful, and there have been a few new shops in the small town at the foot of the mountain. In fact, it is not considered prosperous. The shops opened are nothing more than food, clothing, housing and transportation. They sell necessities to passers-by or idlers in the town to make money.”

“The meals in front of us were purchased by An Ning from the hottest shop in the small town at the foot of the mountain. This pot of yam and pine mushroom stew is now a local specialty. The mushrooms and yams used are all from Nanping Mountain Produced and carefully made, so the taste is very good.”

   “However, not long ago, I heard people say that because it is too popular, the output in the mountains is unstable, and picking is difficult. The owner of that shop is going to vacate a field and think about how to plant it himself.”

  Fang Chang took a look, the appearance of this dish is very beautiful, indeed as delicate as Sang Ziping said. Black pine mushroom and white yam, served with diced rib fan meat, dotted with a few green scallions, still steaming and exuding a strong aroma. With a few chopsticks, it tastes extremely delicious, leaving a fragrance on the lips and teeth.

  …

  Fang Chang lived in Nanping Mountain for a few days, and didn’t leave until Sang Ziping’s furnace of elixir was refined. In the past few days, the two exchanged alchemy techniques and did some experiments according to their ideas. Both Fang Chang and Sang Ziping felt that they had gained a lot.

   At the time of parting, Sang Ziping kneaded a few pills out of the refined elixir and presented them to Fang Chang.

  Nanping Mountain and Yunzhong Mountain are both in the Central Plains, and they can go directly to each other by taking the official road, which is spacious and flat. If you don’t want to go by yourself, you only need to spend a small amount of money to find a cart carrying passengers. But Fang Chang never lacked foot strength, so he walked all the way from Nanping Mountain back to Yunzhong Mountain.

After eating a bowl of noodles at Xu Lianrong’s stall in Huqiao Town, and buying more than a dozen tiger pancakes to put in his bag, Fang Chang walked along the official road to Linxi Village at the foot of the mountain, passed through the village, and prepared to return home. Immortal habitat cliff.

  As soon as he crossed the creek next to Linxi Village, Fang Chang sensed that there was a lot more messy atmosphere in the forest under the Xianqi Cliff than usual.

  His spiritual sense moved slightly, and he knew that this was someone who had come here recently, but they had no chance and were not allowed to enter.

   Shaking his head, Fang Chang didn’t care about it.

  When this group of people tried to enter Xianqi Cliff, Fang Chang had also sensed it from a distance. Even did a bit of divination. The hexagram results show that this will be a small trouble, and it is related to the top of the court. Or to be more precise, the reason why this group of people came here to make trouble is from the palace.

  The main purpose of Fang Chang going down the mountain this time is to find his destined apprentice according to the guidance of spiritual perception, and lead him to the door of practice.

   There is nothing else to do.

  So Fang Chang is very relaxed now. He put the luggage, gourd, and sword back in his bedroom in the Unnamed Hall, and then began to patrol the Xianqi Cliff.
