With Gu Liangqian completely in seclusion, Jiang Beiran had to decide many things on his own.
Looking for Yan Xiaobo, Jiang Beiran told him his intention to gather all the pharmacists in Yuan City together.
After hearing this, Yan Xiaobo naturally agreed and went to handle the matter himself.
Now in Yuan City, it can be said that Tong Xuansheng occupies an absolutely dominant position. This is not only because they have just played the role of savior, but also because the other five countries are eagerly waiting for the antidote.
Until the miasma is lifted, they are still no different from useless people.
Therefore, with Yan Xiaobo taking action and gathering the top pharmacists from the six countries, the matter was quickly settled.
"Master Liu, long time no see."
"Long time no see, long time no see, hey! Isn't this Medicine King, you're here too..."
"No, no, no, don't shout like that, you're going to disgrace me. Who dares to call himself a king in this world?"
"Hahahaha, I didn't expect you, Old Chen, would have to tuck your tail between your legs one day. How is your multi-flavored pine tree doing?"
"Hey, don't mention it. This Baiweisong is like an ancestor. It's too difficult to take care of. Hey!? Kong Dading! I said, how can such a grand event be without you? Come here, come here. It's not easy to see you once on weekdays.
, I caught you today."
…
In Xuanyu Pavilion, more and more high-quality pharmacists entered the hall.
It is true that there is a master in talking and laughing, and there is no seventh grade in dealing with him.
The eighth-grade pharmacists who usually enjoy great fame in the elixir guild or the sect are so embarrassed at the moment that they are hiding in the corner to keep warm and chatting quietly.
There was nothing I could do about it. Those standing in the middle were all ninth-grade masters who were never seen at all on weekdays, but today they appeared in a crowd, and their aura was really scary.
"That's Mr. Baoyan, right? The last time I saw him, he was still in the fifth level. That was all many years ago. Today I am finally lucky enough to see him again. His alchemy skills are outstanding. Although I have only seen
It happened once, but it has benefited me to this day.”
"First look at who is next to Mr. Baoyan."
"Hiss...this person is really unfamiliar, please give me some advice."
"You don't even know Shangguan Tianshi? This is a top alchemist who has refined earth-grade elixirs."
"Luxury!? Then I am really ignorant."
"But I don't blame you. Master Shangguan Tianshi has a low-key nature. Except for us Tan people, few people in other places know about him."
"That's too low-key. It's a magical elixir... I always thought it was impossible for humans to do."
"Who says it isn't?"
"Master Ku! It's Master Ku!"
"Master Ku is here!"
Amidst the exclamations, a group of ninth-grade grandmasters standing in the middle chatting also looked towards the door. When they saw a slightly short figure walking towards them, they all cupped their hands and said: "Master Ku."
Seeing this, Master Ku smiled and said: "Haha, today is such a good day. It is really a grand event to have so many top pharmacists gathered together."
After hearing this, Shangguan Xing replied: "No matter how many pharmacists come here, they can't make this place more radiant than Master Ku."
Several other ninth-grade masters also nodded in agreement.
While a group of ninth-level masters were expressing their respect, a group of pharmacists from the Wei Kingdom pushed aside the crowd and said: "Chief, please take a seat first."
After hearing this, Master Ku shook his head and said, "The host hasn't arrived yet, so how can we guests sit down casually and break the rules?"
"Chief is joking, besides you, there are other people in this position..."
As soon as the ninth-grade pharmacist was halfway through his words, Master Ku glared back.
"Okay, you continue to talk about your business, don't focus on me, I'm just a bad old man, there's nothing good to see."
This sentence immediately made everyone laugh, but their respect for this master was not diminished at all.
"Sure enough, this is an unprecedented event. Everyone, please take a seat. Please take a seat. Why are you standing here?"
While everyone was talking, Yao Yichen stepped into Xuanyu Pavilion. In an instant, all eyes were focused on him.
If the name Yao Yichen was not known to every pharmacist before today, then after today, the popularity of these three words Yao Yichen will not be weaker than that of Master Ku.
There is no other reason.
This time it is this person who is responsible for detoxifying the Xuan Sages of various countries. Coupled with the fact that Tong State took the lead in eradicating the miasma, the truth is about to come out.
It was this man who developed the antidote to the miasma.
So after paying attention, all the pharmacists saluted Yao Yichen.
This is both an expression of admiration and gratitude.
After all, if Tong State had not taken the lead in breaking the miasma, it is very likely that they would not be standing here alive.
When facing this scene, Yao Yichen felt quite ashamed. After all, he knew very well that he was not the hero of this incident at all, so he inevitably felt a little guilty when accepting such a great gift.
'Where is Master Jiang... didn't you agree to wait for me at the door...'
As the protagonist, Yao Yichen actually arrived early, but kept waiting for Jiang Beiran at the door.
It's just that the pharmacists who should be here have basically arrived now. As the host of this grand event, he can't just leave the guests in there, so he has no choice but to go in.
"Master Yao, it's a pleasure to meet you. I didn't expect that there would be a talented person like you among the younger generations. It's really a joyful thing."
Just when Yao Yichen was embarrassed and wanted to scratch his head, he suddenly saw a slightly short old man walking in front of him.
This shocked Yao Yichen, because of course he knew that this person was the number one person in the hearts of all pharmacists.
Although Yao Yichen is also very old, it can be said that there is no sense of disobedience in being called a junior by Master Ku. He immediately clasped his fists and saluted Master Ku: "Master Ku can be here today, it really makes this Xuanyu Pavilion...
Piper Shenghui, hurry up, please take a seat first."
"Master Yao, please sit down first. We are guests after all."
"Then it is more appropriate for you, Master Ku, to sit down first. You are the most distinguished guest today."
If it had been someone else who came today, Yao Yichen would definitely not have said the word "most", but Master Ku could definitely bear this word, because no one present would feel uncomfortable.
It even feels natural.
While Yao Yichen felt extremely embarrassed, Jiang Beiran was heading to a temporary settlement outside Yuancheng.
"Brother!"
When they arrived at a tent, before Jiang Beiran could say anything, Mo Xia ran out and shouted in surprise.
Like most people, they were caught in the Gu cave before, but they were just locked up and did not encounter any inhuman treatment.
After Jiang Beiran knew that Mo Xia was fine, he was not in a hurry to save him, because he had already arranged for people to rescue all the survivors in the Gu cave.
Mo Xia was one of the first survivors to be rescued, and is now temporarily settled outside Yuan City.
Of course, this is when no one knows that he is Master Jiang's apprentice.
"Go in and talk."
After patting Mo Xia's shoulder, Jiang Beiran opened the curtain.
'hiss……'
Instantly, a cold feeling invaded Jiang Beiran's whole body. This kind of coldness was not physical coldness, but mental or soul coldness.
He breathed a sigh of relief and got used to the atmosphere a little. Jiang Beiran walked into the tent and saw that the small tent was full of resentful souls, all of them staring at him with strange postures that humans never had.
"Are these all your new recruits?" Jiang Beiran said, looking at Tang Jingran who was surrounded by resentful spirits.
After hearing this, Tang Jingran nodded in affirmation.
At this time, Mo Xia also walked into the tent. For a moment, Jiang Beiran felt that the cold feeling had lightened a bit.
"Senior brother, these resentful souls are all formed by the people who died tragically in that Gu cave. Master saw that they were pitiful, so he kept them around."
"It seems you are completely used to this situation."
Jiang Beiran clearly remembered that when Mo Xia went to Tang Jingran's residence for the first time, he was so frightened that he shivered, but now seeing ghosts was more friendly than seeing people.
After hearing this, Mo Xia sighed and replied: "Actually, most of these souls who died in vain are very pitiful, so I want to help them."
At this time, Tang Jingran, who had always been taciturn, suddenly said, "Help me."
Jiang Beiran was stunned after hearing this and asked: 'What can I help you with?'
Seeing this, Mo Xia quickly helped to translate: "It's like this. After this disaster, a large number of resentful souls appeared in Tong State, and master's cultivation requires such resentful souls. But as you know, senior brother, ghost cultivators cannot be upright.
To recruit those resentful souls, that’s why Master wants to ask you for help.”
Jiang Beiran nodded after hearing this and replied: "No problem, I can help you with this, but you have to do me a favor first."
After hearing this, Tang Jingran nodded directly and said: "Okay."
"You said before...you are a dead person, right?"
The reason why Jiang Beiran decided to come to Tang Jingran on the spur of the moment was because he remembered what she once said to him, "I am a dead person."
Coupled with the special nature of ghost cultivators, Jiang Beiran felt that Tang Jingran might be able to help people resurrect from the dead.
"right."
"Then in what form are you alive now?"
"dead."
"..."
Sighing helplessly, Jiang Beiran looked at Mo Xia and said, "Translate, translate."
"Yes." Mo Xia responded and replied: "The master is actually using the corpse to bring back the soul. This body was originally a person who passed away. It was possessed by the master's soul and came back to life. But the corpse is still a corpse after all, and we can only keep giving it.
Providing all kinds of strength can ensure that it will not decay."
Jiang Beiran nodded understandingly after hearing this.
However, this method of resurrecting a corpse sounds simple, but it is definitely not as easy to implement as she said.
Otherwise, if there were so many resentful souls in the world, if they could be resurrected through corpses, the world would have been filled with "living dead" like Tang Jingran.
"So how did she manage to revive the soul through the corpse?" Jiang Beiran looked at Mo Xia again and asked.
"This... I don't know either." Mo Xia shook his head in embarrassment.
Although he didn't want to communicate with Tang Jingran anymore, without Mo Xia knowing about it, Jiang Beiran could only bite the bullet and look at Tang Jingran again and asked: "So how did you manage to revive the soul through the corpse?"
"Master."
'Master?'
Jiang Beiran knew that Tang Jingran had a master last time, but he didn't inquire carefully. After all, ghost cultivators are well hidden, and it would be considered impolite to inquire casually.
However, the situation was urgent at the moment, so Jiang Beiran couldn't care about it and continued to ask.
"I have a very important matter that I need to discuss with your master. Can you help me ask him if he is willing to help me with this? If so, I will definitely thank him very much."
"good."
After Tang Jingran finished speaking, she closed her eyes and seemed to have entered some kind of meditative state.
'Hmm...is this a god-like thing?'
Without asking any more questions, Jiang Beiran looked at Mo Xia and asked, "Where is the ghost senior?"
"Huh?" Mo Xia glanced back a little strangely, and then replied: "Senior Ghost...is always behind me."
'Um!?'
Now it was Jiang Beiran's turn to be confused, because he really couldn't see the crane-robed ghost at all now.
'What's going on...is it my problem or his? Well...it should be his.'
Jiang Beiran can still clearly see other resentful souls, but he can't see him, so the problem most likely lies with the crane-robed ghost.
"Has there been any special changes in this senior ghost recently?"
Mo Xia looked back at Senior Ghost, who had his eyes closed, and replied, "Senior Ghost seems to be more lively now than before."
‘It’s not bad to be lively...the cultural classes still need to be strengthened.’
"Tell me more specifically."
"In the past, Senior Ghost would just stare blankly ahead most of the time. Only when he wanted to play chess would his eyes regain some clarity. But now he takes the initiative to give me guidance more and more often, and he would close his eyes from time to time.
Meditation is completely different from the dull eyes before."
'It sounds like... he has become stronger? Or is this a change brought about by Mo Xia?'
Although it is not clear what special physique Mo Xia has, Jiang Beiran has seen that wherever he goes, the resentful souls will gradually be influenced and turn into ordinary ghosts, which can be easily transcended.
‘Could it be... that it is similar to the body that raises Gu... the body that raises ghosts?'
Apart from this reason, Jiang Beiran really can't think of any other reason. Judging from the various performances of the crane-robed ghost before, he has obviously been wandering in the Black Dragon Continent for a long time. He would have become stronger if he wanted to become stronger. How could he be like this?
By chance, Mo Xia caught up just in time.
Therefore, the series of changes in the crane-robed ghost must be closely related to Mo Xia. As for what it will develop into in the future, even Jiang Beiran doesn't know.
'It would be nice if there were more psychics.'
At this moment, Jiang Beiran once again had the idea of Meng Sipei. The last time her hand was strong enough to affect the system's luck, it was still fresh in his memory.
'If we master her correct usage, it's not impossible to increase her special points...'
"Master is here."
Just when Jiang Beiran was thinking about how to use Meng Sipei well, Tang Jingran suddenly opened his eyes and said.
'It's really a divine connection... such a high-end way of communication.'
As soon as Jiang Beiran finished sighing, the curtain of the tent was opened, and a familiar face walked in, which made Jiang Beiran almost lose control of his expression.
