After seeing Wu Bei, the scarecrow twisted its neck and the straw inside stretched out. It actually made a very nice baritone voice: "It's been a long time since we had any guests."
Wu Bei quickly raised his hand to the scarecrow and said, "I came to Shennong Peak to collect herbs. What is your name?"
Scarecrow: "My name is Ping An, which is the name given to me by my master."
Wu Bei: "Who is your respected master?"
Ping An: "My master is Shennong."
Wu Bei was shocked: "Nice to meet you! My name is Wu Bei. I'm here to visit. I hope I won't disturb you."
The scarecrow waved his right hand, and a table appeared in front of the house with two chairs beside it.
"Please take a seat."
Wu Bei sat opposite Ping An, the scarecrow, and asked, "What dynasty is it outside now?"
Wu Bei: "This place is located in Daxia Kingdom."
"Daxia?" Scarecrow asked, "How big is Daxia? Does it control the entire continent?"
Wu Bei shook his head: "Daxia is just one of many countries, and there are many large and small countries around it."
Ping An: "This shows that the Human Emperor has not yet been born."
Wu Bei: "Yes. If there is an emperor alive, he will definitely be able to rule the world."
Ping An waved his hand again, and there was a pot of tea and two cups on the table. He poured a cup of tea for Wu Bei and said, "Try the Baicao tea I made."
Wu Bei picked up the cup and took a sip. The taste was excellent. He nodded and said, "Although there are several medicinal materials used inappropriately, the taste is excellent."
Ping An looked at him: "Do you know medicine?"
Wu Bei: "You know a little bit, I go to the mountains to collect herbs just to make elixirs."
Ping An suddenly stretched out his hand, and an alchemy furnace appeared in front of the room. He took out a book and said, "There are several elixir prescriptions here. Let me take a look at your alchemy."
Wu Bei took the book and glanced at it. He felt that the elixirs on it were quite difficult to refine, but he had
Confidence, asked: "Are there any medicinal materials?"
Ping An: "All medicinal materials can be found in the medicine fields."
Wu Bei: "Then let's start from the first one."
The first elixir is called the Five Elements King Dan. It uses the power of the Five Elements to strengthen the spirit and body. It is a tenth-level elixir that refines both body and spirit. It is not easy to refine.
He first came to the medicine field and quickly collected twenty-eight kinds of medicinal materials. Then he went to the alchemy furnace and started making elixirs.
This alchemy furnace is of extremely high quality, much better than his previous one. It must have been used by Shennong back then.
Although it was the first time to refine this kind of elixir, he already had a relatively clear process in his mind, and the refining process was very smooth. Two and a half minutes later, the elixir furnace was opened, and four elixirs flew out, a tenth-level high-grade elixir.
medicine.
Scarecrow Ping An took an elixir and observed it for a moment, then said: "You are very talented. When the master refined this elixir, the first batch only reached the upper-middle grade, but you are the top-grade."
Wu Bei: "I don't dare to take it seriously. Maybe it's because I have more experience in alchemy."
The Scarecrow sat down again and said: "After the master left, this was the only place left. Back then, I was a person who committed a serious crime in the tribe. I was executed by the tribe, and then my soul was made to suffer forever. It was the master who took pity on me.
, used a scarecrow to collect my soul and let me be by his side.”
"I have lived here alone for too long, and I have long seen through the world of mortals. It must be God's arrangement that you are here. I can leave with peace of mind."
Wu Bei was surprised: "You want to leave?"
Scarecrow: "The reason why I stay here is because I don't want to see the herbs cultivated by the master being left unmanaged. You are an alchemist and know about medicinal materials. I will leave all these to you for safekeeping now."
"There is a master in the room
Some of the things a person left behind, including the books he wrote, are all left to you."
Wu Bei: "I'm afraid I don't have much energy to take care of this place."
Scarecrow: "You don't need to take care of it, you just need to take a look occasionally. This is just one of the owner's many medicinal fields, and it should be the only one now."
Then he looked at Wu Bei and said, "Life is so boring. I can't wait any longer."
Without waiting for Wu Bei to say anything, the scarecrow walked safely to the tree and sat down slowly. Then, a wisp of green smoke drifted out from the scarecrow's body, and its head slowly lowered.
Wu Bei knew that the scarecrow Ping An's soul had dispersed. It was now just a scarecrow without a soul.
Looking at the scarecrow, Wu Bei was in a daze. What kind of experience made him so eager to end his life?
With a slight sigh, he dug a pit under the tree and let the scarecrow bury it in the ground.
After burying the scarecrow safely, he walked into the house. There was nothing inside, just a table, a few chairs, and a bookshelf. There were several tools hung on the wall, such as a medicine hoe, a medicine basket, etc.
There were many books on the bookshelf, and he took one down. It had a topographic map of the entire Shennong Peak, and some of the places were marked where medicinal herbs were grown.
Obviously, the medicinal materials in the medicinal fields are only part of the medicine, and some really good medicines are grown in other places on the mountain.
Afterwards, Wu Bei put all the books inside into the storage artifact, then went to the medicine field to pick some medicinal materials that could be used in the near future, and then went down to the top of the peak.
He couldn't stay in the mountains for too long, otherwise it would be difficult to explain when others asked him. After all, he couldn't tell outsiders about his acquisition of the Shennong Medicine Field.
While he was going down the mountain, he set up an illusion formation halfway up the mountain. From then on, if anyone stepped over the mountain, they would fall into an illusion and be unable to climb to the top.
Finally, he came to the foot of the mountain. Zixi and others were sitting on a big rock waiting for him to come back.
"Master Wu!" Seeing Wu Bei, Zi Xi waved to him.
"I kept you waiting for a long time," he said.
Zi Xi smiled and said: "It doesn't take long. What are Mr. Wu's plans next?"
He glanced at Nongfeng and said: "There is more than one Shennongfeng in the Human Emperor Realm. Let's go to other places."
Zi Xi smiled and said: "Our goal this time is only Shennong Peak, and we haven't done our homework on other places yet."
Wu Bei: "Where are you going? Do you need to do your homework in advance?"
Zixi: "Of course. Some places are quite dangerous. If you don't do your homework, you may die there."
Qiu Nan said at this time: "Master Wu, we can come to the Human Emperor Realm again in the future. Why don't you go to the Taihuang Religion with us first. There are many interesting places in the True Emperor Immortal Realm. We will take you to have fun for a few days."
Wu Bei couldn't help but feel excited. He hadn't been to the Immortal Realm yet and really wanted to go there, so he asked, "Is it convenient to return to the secular world from the True Emperor Immortal Realm?"
"It's convenient, we have a teleportation array, you can go back at any time." Qiu Nan said with a smile.
Zi Xi also hoped that Wu Bei would go with them and said, "Yes. And we can come to the Human Emperor Realm at any time."
Wu Bei was a little envious of them. He was a secular monk. He didn't know when he would wait until the next time he wanted to enter the human emperor realm.
Leng Qinghui: "Brother Wu, if you have nothing to do, why not come with us to the True Emperor Immortal Realm for a few days. Although we are only true disciples, our teachers are high-level members of the Taihuang Sect and we still have some connections in the Taihuang Sect."
Wu Bei nodded: "Okay, I won't bother you anymore."
Zixi was very happy and said: "That's great. Then what are we waiting for? Let's return to the Taihuang Religion!"
