Chapter 163 Tao of Immortality Pills— Ximen Qianxue’s Regret
Ding Hao’s attitude towards Wang Laosi gave everyone a reassurance.
“So, right? I said that Brother Ding is righteous, now everyone believe it?”
“Brother Ding, Goudaner is not more than 14 years old either. Take him, please.”
“Thank you very much, Brother Ding. We will pay the tuition fee of 20 copper coins to Mr. Tianshu without any expense for Brother Ding…”
“Yes, let alone 20, even 40 copper coins, we are willing to pay. As long as Brother Ding can spare time to teach our children and give them a little hope, you are the great benefactor of our entire slum!”
The parents were full of praise for Ding Hao and showed great enthusiasm. They were not fools. They knew very well in their hearts that people like Ding Hao could not come even if he was invited at the ordinary time. Such an opportunity is absolutely once in 1,000 years.
Ding Hao didn’t know until now that after the news that he was going to teach children in the slums came out, the whole slum was a sensation. Under the obscene man’s deception, some parents volunteered to work hard and remodeled the small courtyard overnight, building the classroom and the practice field and making some simple training facilities.
One hour passed after warm parents were received.
Parents left with gratitude. Ding Hao began to look at the 66 children of the right age.
“Hey hey, Don’t worry about what I did. I have checked those children’s ages. They are qualified. Their innate qualitise and talents are good and they are right people for practising martial arts.” The obscene man Tianshu said with grinning.
“Can you test the innate quality and talent?” Ding Hao asked with suprise.
Tianshu grinned, revealing his jagged yellow teeth, and said in an obscene tone, “You can rest assured about what I am doing. There is no mistake absolutely. Well, how do you plan to teach them?”
Ding Hao smiled, “I naturally have my own way.”
Ding Hao’s method is actually very simple. First let the children lay the foundation and do physical fitness with vigor. Then they will be taught to try to guide Qi. “Taixuan Sword-seeking Scripture” could not be taught because of the sect rules. But that “Secrets of Guiding Qi” could be used as the Qi enlightening teaching material for children. And then, the “One Saber to Begin Your Journey Technique” created by the Saber Master for cultivating Qi could be taught to children.
He took out a piece of paper from his bosom and handed it to the profiteer Tianshu, saying, “According to the above catering, I will pay for it and you will contribute your efforts to let the children eat meat every day. Only in this way can the blood be vigorous and the body be strong.”
“Tut-tut, tut-tut, okay, you are really spending your principal and I admire you. For those friendless kids, you have to spend at least 100 liang gold each month, is it worth?” The wretched face of the profiteer Tianshu showed a rare look of seriousness.
“I only want to understand my thoughts.” Ding Hao said in an arrogant manner. This was the usual words spoken by leading characters who liked to pretend to be arrogant. Ding Hao noticed such words when he read the fantasy novel of martial arts in his previous life.
The profiteer was shocked, and then nodded earnestly, “Well, I, an old man will accompany you to be crazy once. I’d like to see how far you can teach these little guys.”
…
…
Nobody knew why for several days in a row, Ximen Qianxue felt that she could not calm down, her blood was surging and she couldn’t concentrate, so that she almost blew up the stove several times because of distraction during making immortality pills, and she wasted a lot of raw materials and spiritual grass.
Buzz buzz!
Having something in mind, she put away the little red and hollow alchemy stove for making immortality pills hanging before her. Ximen Qianxue sighed, and slowly got up and walked out of the cabin, came to his herb garden.
In the morning light, the slight cold autumn wind blew, the flowers and leaves in the herb garden withered and were floating with the wind.
When the herbs were ripe and harvested, the flowers must float away.
In another two days, the spiritual grass in this small herb garden will be picked.
Ximen Qianxue did not know why in her heart the figure emerged unexpectedly that made her extremely disappointed, she couldn’t help thinking of the scenes that happened in the class that day.
“Unexpectedly I would even think of him…”
The beautiful girl sighed. At first, she was just regretting that a genius wasted time. Now that she has decided to give him up, why could she still think of him involuntarily? “The master said, I was destined to have a difficulty. Only by stepping through it can I break through the bottleneck and join the ranks of congenital pharmacists of immortality pills. Is this teenager my disaster?”
Slowly opening the blue thread-bound booklet from the Storage Ring, she turned the pages casually.
This was the result of careful compilation and composition by Ximen Qianxue. It was her painstaking work. Now it was painted in messy darkness. It was completely useless. What a pity. This was the original copy. She did not keep it by hand. That’s why she was so angry that day. In great anger, she ordered Ding Hao to leave.
Ximen Qianxue had a cold temper and did not like to argue with others. She was even a little lonely, so she seldom got angry.
But in the face of Ding Hao, unexpectedly one after another forgetting herself, even she felt that she was incredible.
Unconsciously, Ximen Qianxue’s eyes focused on the pamphlet in her hand.
This was page 10, introducing her study about the evolution of mutual generation and restriction on the efficacy and pharmacology of three types of eighth-grade herbs with the same property of yang, and this was her study achievement that she felt proud of, but now those pages were painted in a messy manner. He even made many crosses and wrote some notes between lines.
Why did it happen?
Ximen Qianxue calmed down and read pictures and little characters considered as pranks by her. Suddenly she found out something extremely astonished— what Ding Hao wrote was not wrong completely.
Oh, my God. No,this is not wrong completely and there was somthing in it.
All of sudden Ximen Qianxue came to realize something.
Her breath became shorter.
She began to review carefully those crooked herself and inserted words. Very soon she lost herself in them and stood still. Unconsciously more than two hours had passed.
“Is it really true? Can the pollen of the Yang Pole Flower and roots and branches powder of the Star Grass be put into the burner according to the Yin Seal Character with Three Waves method? This is unreasonable, at first…”
Ximen Qianxue turned and quickly entered her cabin. He took out some red and white powder from each of two jade bottles. The palm of her right hand was unfolded. The small hollow red alchemy stove appeared in her palm. The stove for immortality pills whirled over the left hand and absorbed both kinds of powder into it.
Next moment, the alchemy stove was rotating in the void space before her.
Ximen Qianxue held her breath with concentration. A pair of fine-jade hands constantly conjured up the ghosting images and created mysterious handprints. This was exactly the “Yin Seal Script with Three Waves” print.
According to the theory of many authoritative high-rank pharmacists of immortality pill in Snow Province today, this handprint had always been used to refine the immortality medicine and herbs with Yin nature. If raw materials with Yang nature were used to refine in the stove and the stove would explore. The raw material would be wasted since Yin and Yang could not be reconciled. This was considered as one of the laws of making immortality pills by the authorities of immortality pills in Snow Province.
Ximen Qianxue started to try with the last trust in Ding Hao in her heart.
