Longevity starts with learning

Chapter 98
"Aren't you always hiding it?"

"Why did you tell that kid everything today?"

In Mingxintang, the man in Tsing Yi who hadn't appeared for more than half a month reappeared, looking at Mr. Li who was processing the medicinal materials with great interest.

"His spiritual root aptitude is too poor, but his understanding is extremely extraordinary, so extreme, if he embarks on the immortal journey, the most important thing is to be patient."

"If you can't bear your temper, no matter how good your understanding is, it's meaningless."

Mr. Li was busy working on his own, without looking back.

"Right."

The man in Tsing Yi nodded thoughtfully: "I've also paid attention to it for the past half a month. This kid's understanding is really good."

"Although aptitude is just a pseudo-spiritual root, as long as this understanding can continue to be maintained, stepping into the world of cultivating immortals in the future will be much smoother than us."

Speaking of this, the man in Tsing Yi seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly looked at Old Li suspiciously: "Old Li, don't you want that kid to inherit your mantle?"

Mr. Li didn't say a word, he was still busy on his own.

Seeing this, the man in Tsing Yi took out a medical book from his pocket, flipped through it pretendingly, and said to himself: "This medical book, no matter how I look at it, it doesn't feel like a secular medical book."

"Know people, know medicine, are you learning alchemy?"

Speaking of this, the man in Tsing Yi looked at Old Man Li with great interest: "Old Man Li, you are hiding deep enough!"

"Alchemist, old man Li, why are you willing to stay in this poor place for so many years?"

Mr. Li put down the medicinal materials, his expression was natural: "If I were an alchemist, would I be able to make it into what I am now?"

"It's just some secular medical books, plus a little basic knowledge acquired over the years, and I figured out something."

"If you want to talk about alchemy, you can barely do it. Based on my years of thinking, the introduction to alchemy should be pretty much the same as what I have studied."

"After all, alchemy, the most basic, must be the understanding of medicinal materials and practice..."

"If there is a chance, I can come into contact with alchemy. My method can be regarded as a little foundation."

The man in Tsing Yi still looked suspicious, but he couldn't find any reason to refute.

Mr. Li looked at the man in Tsing Yi with a smile: "If you want to learn, I can teach you if you give me enough Lingshi."

The man in Tsing Yi dissipated his suspicions, and waved his hands again and again: "If it is true alchemy, then I will not say anything, but you are figuring it out, I don't have the blessing..."

"However, if you're just passing it on to that kid, aren't you afraid of misleading your disciples?"

Mr. Li sneered, but ignored the man in Tsing Yi and continued to work.

The man in Tsing Yi looked down at the Chinese medicine book in his hand, and then looked at Mr. Li who was busy. Immediately, he threw the medical book on the table and went to the other room.

Mr. Li glanced at the medical books on the table, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he shook his head. His attention seemed to be on the medicinal materials in front of him again...

……

"A book is missing?"

In the bedroom, Chu Mu looked at the bookcase in front of him, frowning deeply.

A row of bookcases, displaying all kinds of books he has read since he came to this world.

A total of 38 volumes, 65 volumes of medical books, [-] volumes of other books.

There is one missing book, which is not conspicuous, but the medical books are placed in a separate grid. He often reads them, and the placement of each book can be said to be familiar by heart.

One volume less, it is extremely conspicuous!

"Someone has been here..."

Chu Mu took out one of the medical books, and had another judgment in his mind.

The title of the book, Medicine Theory, was obtained from Mr. Li. It was originally placed in the middle, from left to right, it was volume No. 12, but right now, it appears in volume No. 14.

Chu Mu is very sure that he remembers correctly, the placement of each position has its own purpose, so that he can hold it in his hand at the first time when he wants to read it.

Chu Mu looked around the room, and there was nothing unusual about the rest of the room, even the wardrobe showed no signs of being tampered with.

"Someone sneaked into the room, then... rummaged through his bookcase, and finally... stole a medical book?"

Chu Mu's face was a bit dignified. In the past, he might not have cared too much about a medical book.

But today, Mr. Li himself said that in the world of cultivating immortals, knowing people and knowing medicine... seems to be related to the legendary alchemy.

The medical books in front of him are not just the inheritance of secular medical skills.

Even though he has never really been in contact with the world of cultivating immortals, he does not need to think about it to know how precious this kind of inheritance is.

After all, even in Nanshan Town, reading and literacy is expensive, and the prices of ordinary books in bookstores are high...

Obviously it cannot be a one-sided phenomenon, it must be the general trend of the times.

But... he was just thinking about it, let alone revealing anything to anyone...

And...he seems to have just returned from Mingxintang, right?
In other words, the book was stolen before he knew about the world of cultivating immortals!
Chu Mu looked around in the room, then walked out of the room, checking room by room, but there was nothing abnormal.

In the end, Chu Mu stood in the courtyard, with a little more worry on his brows.

The ignorant are fearless, the more they know, the more worried they become.

Without hesitation, Chu Mu went out decisively, heading straight for Mingxintang.

Even if there is only the slightest possibility, it is definitely not something he can face now.

He didn't have the guts to investigate secretly.

When the sky is falling, the tall man has to hold it up.

Hurriedly walked into Mingxin Hall, and within a quarter of an hour, Chu Mu appeared outside Mingxin Hall again.

Chu Mu looked a little dazed, as if there was an extra medical book in his hand.

And this medical book is exactly the one he thought was stolen just now...

The most weird thing is that Mr. Li actually said that he left behind this medical book?
After being dazed for a moment, Chu Mu tightened his hands on the Chinese medicine book without any further entanglement.

It doesn't matter whether it was left behind or stolen, Mr. Li said yes, that is.

After all, it's impossible for Boss Li to be idle and steal another medical book that was already given to him, and then say that he, Chu Mu, left it behind, right?

If he doesn't know the fun, he's asking for trouble.

"I don't know if there are storage bags in the world of cultivating immortals..."

Chu Mu was thinking to himself, thinking that if he stepped into the fairyland in the future, he would have to get a storage thing right away, and take all his belongings with him!

Whether his own things are useful or not, that is his own business, and it is another thing to be cared about by others.

What's more, I'm still wandering around in my own home...

"The quality of this rolled cloth is not good, look, this big piece is exposed..."

While thinking, the voice in his ear attracted Chu Mu's attention.

Looking around, among the cloth shops on the side of the street, the middle-aged shopkeeper was holding a roll of cloth and said, while a woman stood beside him helplessly.

This woman is like the little widow next door to his house.

Chu Mu frowned, but also took a few more glances.

If he remembered correctly, this little widow had a rough life.

After the incident with the mummy, the He family regarded the little widow as Kefu Kefu's dead star, and directly kicked the little widow out of the house.

In this era, with Kefu Kefu's reputation behind his back, he is still a lonely person, and life is hard even if he doesn't think about it.

After the little widow was kicked out by the He family, she seemed to be living in her original home, doing some female celebrity things to maintain her life every day...

After stopping for a while, Chu Mu finally did not stop.

Although there are some thoughts, but now it is different from before.

There is such a thing as the love between children and daughters, how can a person who cultivates immortals hope for a long life!
