Chapter 53 Meeting Chen Ming Again
"Brother Li, is that you? It's great that you are still alive." Chen Ming recognized Li Yi's identity when he saw the mask.
"It's me. Let's change places. I have something to ask you about."
"Okay, Brother Li, let's go to the place where we stay!" Chen Ming thought for a moment, then picked up the things on the ground and walked towards the west of the city. After a while, they arrived at a small dilapidated courtyard.
Chen Ming used a jade talisman in his hand to open the door of the small courtyard and walked in. At this time, there were seven or eight people in the small courtyard. They were all monks on the first and second levels of the Qi Refining Stage. They were meditating in the middle of the courtyard.
"Brother Chen Ming is back."
…………
After Chen Ming came in, everyone present stood up to greet him, which shows that Chen Ming's prestige here is very high. Chen Ming also greeted everyone enthusiastically, but he did not introduce Li Yi to everyone.
"Brother Li, let's go in and tell you that this place is very hidden. Very few outsiders come here. There is no need to worry. They are all my life and death friends." Chen Ming said very seriously.
"Okay." Li Yi glanced at everyone, nodded and said.
"Brother Li, you were hunted down by so many monks, which made me worried for a while. It's great that you are still alive. How did you escape?" Chen Ming said.
Li Yi briefly told the story of his escape without going into details, and then asked: "Weren't you at Qianling Medicine House? Why are you out now?"
After listening to Li Yi's words, Chen Ming's face became a little gloomy, and then he said angrily: "Back then, our brothers and sisters who went to Yunwu Ridge to collect medicine were almost completely wiped out. Two of the team leaders also died, and only a few of them... A disciple escaped and went back. After we returned, we were interrogated for a long time. Later, for some unknown reason, we were released about half a year ago. After we were released, we were sent out to collect herbs all year round. Almost all of them were very difficult tasks. After completing If you don't, you will be punished. Many brothers and sisters lost their lives in the process of collecting herbs. Later, in order to save our lives, some of us secretly joined forces. Every time we went out to collect herbs, the main purpose was to save our lives. It was just symbolic. We had to collect some elixirs, and the punishment was better than losing our lives. The herbs we collected were getting less and less, and some people in the top management were dissatisfied, so we had to replace the manager. But after that incident, everyone felt bad about Qianling Medicine House. There was no good impression. The medicinal materials collected were all ordinary medicinal materials. As our treatment became less and less, we were expelled from Qianling Yaofang. We had no other skills except collecting medicine. Being able to obtain some cultivation resources, some of the remaining people joined forces to go into the mountains to collect herbs. The harvest was not bad at first. Everyone collected the herbs equally, and then sold them in the city in exchange for some cultivation resources. However, Qianling Medicine Shop knew that in the future , began to suppress us and forced us to sell the elixir to them, but the price they offered was extremely low. "
After listening to Chen Ming's words, a stern look flashed across Li Yi's face, and an inexplicable anger arose in his heart. Qianling Medicine House not only concealed the information about the third-order monsters, but also used the monks they hired as cannon fodder. If the monks from the Vampire Sect hadn't attacked, they might have done something dirty to Li Yi and the others. Li Yi also hated them with a passion.
Although Li Yi was angry, he did not lose his mind. Although his strength had increased a lot, it was not enough to deal with Qianling Medicine House. He also robbed their magic medicine, which was considered a bad breath.
"Has Qianling Medicine House asked for news about me?" Li Yi looked at Chen Ming and asked. This is his concern.
"In the beginning, I did ask a few times, but later I learned that Brother Li's cultivation was only at the fourth level of Qi training and he was chased away by a large group of monks. After that, he didn't show up for a year or two, and he never appeared again. Asked."
After listening to Chen Ming's words, Li Yi's expression relaxed a little. He was relieved that Qianling Medicine Shop didn't care about him.
"Brother Li, do you have any business with me this time?"
"I do have something to do with you. I need you to help me collect some elixirs. I need to refine some elixirs, but I don't have that much time to collect elixirs. In addition, I also need to help me find out some information, of course. , I won't let you do this in vain, in return, I can give you some pills as a reward, what do you think?" Li Yi looked at Chen Ming and said seriously.
"Okay! There is no problem. Brother Li can refine elixirs, so he must be an alchemist." Chen Ming said in great surprise. If he can establish a friendship with an alchemist, he will definitely be in need in the future. The elixir is gone.
"Well, I am a first-grade alchemist. As long as you are the only one who knows about this matter, don't let the news leak out. I don't want to be too ostentatious in Juxian City. You'd better keep a low profile and do this in secret. , you can continue what you have done before, I will not care about you. I have no requirements on the age of the elixir, but it must be a fresh elixir that can be planted. If you encounter some rare elixirs, I can also help. I collect some, and I also need to collect some broken spiritual weapons. I come to you every three months to get something. If you encounter something of too high value, you can trade with me directly." After finishing speaking, he took out more than twenty small jade bottles from his body and threw them to Chen Ming.
"These are all the Juling Pills I made, including two bottles of top-grade Juyuan Pills, and the rest are medium and low-grade Juyuan Pills. You keep them. One bottle of top-grade Juyuan Pill is your reward, and the rest can be used to exchange for things. Please help me exchange the rest for Lingshi, preferably top- and middle-grade Lingshi. The price can be cheaper than those pharmacies, but don't be ostentatious, don't exchange them all at once, so as not to attract everyone's attention, and release them slowly."
After listening to Li Yi's words and looking at the small medicine bottle in his hand, Chen Ming was almost dumbfounded. He couldn't believe his ears. Li Yi could actually give him top-grade pills. It was rare for an alchemist who could refine top-grade pills, even if he was a first-grade alchemist. He had never heard of an alchemist who could refine top-grade pills in Juxian City.
Moreover, he felt that Li Yi's generosity was too big. He gave away a Lingdan worth thousands of Lingshi at a time. Chen Ming was still very moved by his trust in him. With the reward given by Li Yi, his cultivation could also be improved quickly.
"Okay, Brother Li, don't worry! I will be careful and won't leak the news. What specific spiritual herbs does Brother Li need to collect? What other information do you need to find out?" After a moment, Chen Ming's excitement gradually calmed down, and he looked at Li Yi and asked.
"These are the specific spiritual herbs needed. In addition, we need to find out about the five major sects recruiting disciples three years later, and the specific requirements of each sect for recruiting disciples." Li Yi took out a brush, wrote down a series of spiritual herbs, handed it to Chen Ming and said.
