Chapter 372 Purple Futon
Besides concealing his identity, Fang Yang asked the Five Elements Boy to follow him for another reason.
Because the Five Elements Boy inherited the prediction method of the Wood Clan in the Spirit Realm, and integrated the prediction methods inherited from the Canglan Continent and Luo Yunshan, he could predict some disasters and blessings.
Fang Yang also wanted to use his expertise to see if he could find some treasures.
Of course, Fang Yang is now a wealthy man. He walked around the market and found that he already had most of the things, and some low-level things were useless to him.
Fang Yang couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
At this moment, Fang Yang's eyes fell on a remote corner.
It was a corner of the wall, surrounded by ordinary weeds.
A cultivator in the early stage of the Golden Core was listlessly flipping through an ancient book.
In front of this cultivator in the early stage of the Golden Core was a pile of strange things.
Some were fragments, and some were stones engraved with talismans.
However, after Fang Yang scanned the pile of things with his divine sense several times, he found that although these things were probably relics from ancient times, their spiritual energy was now gone and they were just like ordinary things.
Fang Yang also shook his head helplessly and was about to leave. At this moment, the Five Elements Boy beside him suddenly pulled Fang Yang.
The Five Elements Boy's face was a little pale, and it seemed that he had consumed a lot of energy.
"Elder Fang, I just sensed a hint of the secret, and then I secretly used the ancient secret method of the Wood Clan to calculate and found that the direction where the Jindan cultivator was located seemed to be beneficial to you. Otherwise, let's go and investigate it carefully."
"Okay!" Fang Yang and the Five Elements Boy walked over together.
The Five Elements Boy inherited the prediction method of the spiritual world, which made Fang Yang have to pay attention to it.
And Fang Yang also knew very well in his heart that some things that were precious enough could not be detected by ordinary methods, so he was a little looking forward to it.
After Fang Yang walked over, the Jindan cultivator was not too excited.
It seemed that he also knew that the things he was selling would hardly arouse other people's interest, so he simply said coldly: "These things may be fragments of ancient spiritual treasures or spiritual magic tools, each of which is worth one hundred spirit stones."
After saying this, the Jindan cultivator looked at the classics in his hand again.
After listening to the reminder of the Five Elements Boy, Fang Yang walked over and took out the fragments of magic weapons one by one and carefully examined them with his divine mind.
But the result disappointed Fang Yang.
These things are indeed fragments of magic weapons, but after years of erosion, they have long become a pile of waste and have no value.
Fang Yang was worried that he had made a mistake, and even used the way of stealing the sky to sense the secrets of heaven, but there was no response.
This made Fang Yang sure that these were waste.
At this moment, a group of Jindan late-stage cultivators came over with ferocious looks.
These people were the patrol team of Xifeng Shengsi. The monk in the lead shouted at the monk who looked like a scholar: "You haven't paid the rent for the stall this month. Hurry up and hand over the spirit stones, otherwise I will tear your bones apart."
"Senior, I haven't sold my things these days. The last time I refined the elixir, I failed again. I am really short of money these days. Please give me a few days!"
The monk in the early stage of Jindan put down the book and said respectfully.
"You are also a dignified Jindan monk. You can earn some spirit stones by going out of the city to do tasks! And you are idle, have no talent for refining elixirs, and still owe so many spirit stones. Aren't you ashamed?" The monk of the patrol team sneered.
The scholar looked unhappy, but did not refute.
"How long do you want to delay the arrears!" The monk of the patrol team cursed loudly.
"Hmph, don't you have a mid-grade spiritual weapon? Hand it over quickly, or we will throw you out!"
"Senior, this is the only thing I have for self-defense! Hey..."
Although the scholar-like Jindan cultivator was very reluctant, he finally took out a fan-shaped mid-grade spiritual weapon from his storage bag.
"This thing can only cover the rent for 20 days at most. If you can't take out the spiritual stones after 20 days, get out and never enter Xifeng Shengsi again!"
The patrolling cultivator left with a curse.
"HeyHave you chosen, fellow Daoist?" The Jindan cultivator sighed, then looked at the ancient book in his hand and asked absent-mindedly.
Fang Yang was a little disappointed, so he turned his attention to the Jindan cultivator.
He found that the scholar-like cultivator was about 30 years old, holding a book of elixir in his hand and reading it with great interest.
"Little Daoist, are you an alchemist?" Fang Yang asked with interest when he saw the Jindan cultivator.
"Hmm? 'Little Daoist'? How can you call me that? You are only in the early stage of Jindan..." The cultivator was a little dissatisfied with Fang Yang's address.
Suddenly, Fang Yang exuded a trace of pressure from a Yuanying cultivator, and the Jindan cultivator's face changed drastically.
He immediately said respectfully: "My name is Wang Zheng, and I am a casual cultivator. I became a Jindan cultivator by chance with the help of my family."
"Although I hope to become an alchemist, I don't have the financial resources. Although I have refined several furnaces of elixirs, most of them failed. I can't be considered an alchemist..."
Wang Zheng said with a guilty look on his face.
"I saw that the little Daoist was reading the alchemy classics without sleep and forgetting to eat, so I asked you why the little Daoist was obsessed with alchemy..."
"I was injured by a monster when I was young, and later my father got a healing pill. After I took it, I felt that the pain was gone. I felt grateful and happy about the pill!" Wang Zheng said slowly.
"I feel that the way of alchemy is also the way of heaven. It is a kind of mystery that is hard to describe. It seems that every pill has its own life..."
Wang Zheng's face showed excitement when talking about pills.
"Little Taoist friend, you really have a lot of ideas about the way of alchemy!" Fang Yang smiled.
Fang Yang paused and smiled: "In my opinion, the way of alchemy is also the way of heaven and earth."
"Heaven created all things to nourish all living beings. It is natural to refine pills with gratitude because of gratitude to the way of heaven in my heart. Only by following the way of nature can we pursue the great way of heaven and improve the way of alchemy..."
Fang Yang started chatting with Wang Zheng about pills.
Fang Yang's attainments in the way of alchemy are very good. After a few words, Wang Zheng benefited a lot and almost worshipped him.
It turned out that Wang Zheng's family was a cultivation family on a small island near Xifeng Bank.
Wang Zheng was the most talented person in the family, so the family cultivated him with all their strength.
In order to collect enough spiritual stones to buy golden pills, his family members even ventured into many ancient ruins.
Finally, they picked up a broken magic weapon and successfully exchanged it for the golden elixir, and many people in their family died because of it.
Wang Zheng lived up to everyone's expectations and became a golden elixir cultivator by chance, able to enter and leave Xifeng Shengsi.
But his character was too weak, and he had been supported by his family for a long time, so he did not have the ability to practice alchemy and talisman making, so he did not have many means of making a living.
Because he had to consume spiritual stones every time he went in and out of Xifeng Shengsi, he simply had to set up a stall here to sell some magic weapon fragments, hoping to become an alchemist after collecting spiritual stones, so that the conditions of his family could be improved.
Wang Zheng was very persistent in alchemy, but he did not have enough financial resources. After several failures, he became penniless.
Fang Yang never lacked materials for alchemy because he had Qingyuan Xianshan. Fang Yang could not help but reflect on Wang Zheng's distress.
If there was no Qingyuan Xianshan, what would Fang Yang be like, and he was also full of emotion in his heart.
During the conversation, Wang Zheng found that Fang Yang had a deep understanding of the way of alchemy, and immediately asked several questions in his mind.
Fang Yang didn't take it seriously and answered all of his questions.
This solved all of Wang Zheng's doubts that had been unsolved for many years.
Wang Zheng sat up as if he had finally found a good rain after a long drought. He took a few steps forward and knelt in front of Fang Yang: "Senior, although Wang Zheng is dull, he has a heart for Taoism and loves the Dao of Alchemy very much. I hope you can accept me as your disciple."
"Little Daoist friend Wang Zheng, isn't it too hasty for you to become my disciple?" Fang Yang said with a smile.
"Senior, you are proficient in the Dao of Alchemy, and your explanation of the elixir is almost perfect. You must be a broad-minded person, and your mind is almost natural. Such a person is like the sages recorded in ancient times!"
Wang Zheng said firmly.
Fang Yang was delighted to see Wang Zheng, who was so persistent in the Dao of Alchemy, and secretly praised Wang Zheng's intelligence.
Moreover, after the conversation just now, he also found that Wang Zheng's understanding of alchemy was very unique, but he suffered from the lack of financial support, so he could not have enough practice.
"Little Taoist friend, I want to ask you one more question. If you follow me to practice the Dao of Alchemy in the future, what are your wishes in the future?" Fang Yang asked with a smile.
"Senior, I, Wang Zheng, actually have very little desire. I don't seek fame, nor do I seek to be the king, nor do I seek unreasonable thoughts." Wang Zheng said seriously.
After a pause, he said, "I just hope to let my family live well first, and at the same time I can better study my beloved Dao of Alchemy and use the Dao of Alchemy to prove the way of heaven!"
"Use the Dao of Alchemy to prove the way of heaven?" Fang Yang nodded slightly after hearing this.
Wang Zheng continued slowly: "Whether I can embark on the Dao of Alchemy in the future, I will cherish every pill and make the pill play the greatest effect. If I can make progress in the Dao of Alchemy in the future, I will definitely save the world and benefit all living beings!"
Wang Zheng said firmly.
Fang Yang seemed to find that he was talking to several great Confucian scholars of Yanmu Immortal Country.
The firm belief of the great Confucian scholars made Fang Yang feel the sincerity in Wang Zheng's heart.
"Okay, that's good. I will accept you as my registered disciple!" Fang Yang said with a happy smile.
After all, Wang Zheng has a kind heart and loves the way of alchemy very much. Fang Yang also wants his way of alchemy to be passed down.
"My current identity is inconvenient, so I use the pseudonym Ding Feng. When the time is right, I will definitely tell you my real name."
"Thank you, Master!" Wang Zheng knelt three times and kowtowed nine times to Fang Yang very sincerely.
Fang Yang took out a jade slip and told Wang Zheng where he was in the small courtyard.
Wang Zheng collected the carpet, and then immediately went to the temporary cave where he was staying to pack his luggage.
Fang Yang looked at Wang Zheng's excitement, and he was also very moved.
Suddenly, Fang Yang found that Wang Zheng was sitting on a purple cushion.
Wang Zheng was busy packing up, but he forgot about the cushion he was sitting on. It seems that he thought it was an ordinary thing and didn't take it to heart.
Fang Yang used his divine sense to investigate and found that the cushion was indeed very ordinary.
But after Fang Yang used the power of stealing the sky to explore, he found that there were strange spiritual fluctuations in it.
If Fang Yang did not have the power of stealing the sky, he would not have found any abnormalities at all.
"Could it be that the things in it are actually useful to me?"
Thinking of the reminder of the Five Elements Boy, Fang Yang had to take it seriously.
Fang Yang himself did not expect that he not only accepted a satisfactory apprentice, but also found a treasure that was important to him, and he could not help but feel happy.
