Time flies, and a month passes in peace.

These days, Liu Zhuo has been quite adapting to his current job.

In the medicine warehouse, what Liu Zhuo needs to do every day is to classify the spiritual medicines collected by his disciples who went out to collect medicine.

For example, the spiritual medicines that need to be dried must be selected separately and handed over to Zhang Delong for treatment. The spiritual medicines that need to be kept fresh and tender must be cleaned and stored in a special jade box to prevent the withering of the spiritual medicines.

In the past month, Liu Zhuo naturally learned a lot of skills in identifying spiritual medicines and had a deep understanding of the medicinal properties of various herbs. He would definitely not chew the cereal herbs like before it appeared and tried the medicine with his body.

At that moment, Liu Zhuo was holding a light red herb and carefully looking at it. On the desktop was a book of "Baoling Jian". The pattern on the page he opened happened to be opposite to the herb in his hand.

This is a blood spirit herb that is five years old, vaguely emitting ignition spiritual energy. It is said to be a must-have item for refining blood-replenishing pills.

Liu Zhuo silently remembered the characteristics of the Blood Spirit Grass. This book "Baoling Jian" is among the few medical techniques in the medicine library. It is the only one that introduces the types of spiritual medicines, so he reads it very carefully.

After looking at it carefully for a while, Liu Zhuo brought the jade box and wanted to put the blood spirit herb into the box and put it in it.

"Junior Brother Liu, this blood spirit herb cannot be stored like this." At this time, Lao Yutou, who was beside him, suddenly reminded.

Liu Zhuo said in confusion: "Senior Brother Yu, is there anything else to pay attention to here?"

Lao Yu stroked his goatee's beard and said slowly: "The Blood Spirit Grass is a thing of the great yang, and this jade is cold. If the Blood Spirit Grass is stored in the jade box, the fire spirit energy in the Blood Spirit Grass will slowly be lost over time."

Liu Zhuonuo nodded thoughtfully and said, "What should we do about it?"

Old Yu took the blood spirit grass in Liu Zhuo's hand, and saw him pinch a spell and punched a red light into the jade box.

Suddenly, the entire jade box emitted a hazy red light. Lao Yutou put the blood spirit grass in this time. When the lid of the jade box was covered, Lao Yutou made another magic trick, and the entire jade box returned to normal, and no longer had a red light flashing.

"First use the fire spirit energy and remove the cold air in the jade box." Old Yu said with a smile.

Seeing that Old Yu showed such a trick inadvertently, Liu Zhuo was shocked. Obviously, the inconspicuous old man in front of him was not as simple as his appearance.

Liu Zhuo couldn't help asking: "Senior Brother Yu, can I learn such magic?"

Lao Yu said, "If you want to use magic tricks, you must at least practice "Eternal Life" to the third level or above. However, Junior Brother Liu, you are already very rare. You can practice to the peak of the first level at this age."

Liu Zhuo was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that the old man Yu in front of him could see his cultivation clearly.

So he couldn't help asking, "So, Senior Brother, have you practiced "Eternal Life" to the third level or above?"

Old Yu laughed and said, "I have been in Tengyun Village for more than 70 years. Although my qualifications are poor, I have already practiced "Eternal Life" to the fifth level."

Liu Zhuo said in surprise: "Cultivating to the fifth level? Wouldn't you be promoted to an inner disciple?"

Old Yu shook his head sighingly and said, "I am so old, why bother to join in the fun again? Besides, with my qualifications, it is of great use even if I enter the inner door. Besides, Master Zuo was kind to me back then, so I was satisfied with being able to help him do things within my ability in the medicine warehouse."

Hearing this, Liu Zhuo felt very curious. He had been getting along well with Lao Yu this month, so he couldn't help but ask a few more questions.

It turned out that Lao Yu had joined the Five Mountains Sect seventy years ago.

At that time, Lao Yutou, who was only seven years old, lived in a small mountain village outside Anyang City.

When the young Lao Yu was playing in the mountains, he accidentally entered a stone cave, but he didn't want to be bitten by a monster in the stone cave, and his two fingers were bitten away, thus he became disabled.

Fortunately, the strange beast did not seem to eat meat and did not continue to bite Lao Yu. After Lao Yu returned home, he began to have a fever and suffered from a strange disease. He was in a terminal state of illness and was about to die at a young age.

By chance, Zuo Ningshan, who was going down the mountain to look for elixirs, also stayed at Lao Yutou's home.

Zuo Ningshan is good at refining alchemy and is naturally very skilled in medicine. He recognized Lao Yu's master at first sight and was poisoned by beasts, so he cured Lao Yu's strange disease.

Lao Yutou's family was grateful to Zuo Ningshan, but Zuo Ningshan did not take it seriously. After going out to find the needed elixir, they returned to the Five Mountains Sect.

However, he did not expect that the child he saved at the time would join the Five Mountains Sect in order to repay his kindness. Although Lao Yutou had poor qualifications, he devoted himself to staying in the medicinal collection hall for more than 70 years.

At this time, Liu Zhuo couldn't help but sigh, and he couldn't help asking: "Don't you, Master Zuo, know, Senior Brother, you are the child he saved by him back then?"

Old Yu shook his head and smiled with satisfaction: "Uncle Zuo's lifelong energy has been devoted to alchemy and chess. How can I remember me? But I am satisfied with being able to work in the medicinal collection hall. At least it is considered that Uncle Zuo's busyness. I can't repay my life for this life, so I can save it for the next life."

After hearing Lao Yu's experience, Liu Zhuo couldn't help but admire the thin old man in front of him. After all, it is really rare for someone in this world to repay such kindness.

"By the way, Senior Brother Yu, what is the monster that bit you? Have you ever gone to the cave to explore it later?" Liu Zhuo suddenly asked.

Lao Yu looked at his disabled left palm and sighed: "From what I later know, it should be a low-level monster. Since I practiced "Eternal Life" to the third level, I have the ability to protect myself. I went to the place where I first played several times to find the stone cave, and wanted to kill the monster with my hand to take revenge, but I didn't expect that I would not be able to find the stone cave at that time."

Liu Zhuo asked in confusion: "That stone cave is also on the Wufing Peak?"

Old Yu pondered and said, "Well, just under the cliff thirty miles north of Tengyun Village. Logically, the places where monsters can be nurtured are places with extremely strong spiritual energy in the world, but the location of the cliff is really thin."

Liu Zhuo nodded thoughtfully. He had always been very interested in these strange things.

He felt that any weirdness in this world must have an internal reason.

Monsters also grow by refining the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Where monsters shouldn't have appeared, there are monsters appearing. This shows that there may be treasures in the cave, or for some reason, the spiritual energy is extremely strong.

The two were chatting when a blue figure walked in from outside.

The person coming was Zhou Dashan. As soon as he entered the door, he ordered: "Recently, the inner qi refining pills are in urgent need. Master is going to open the furnace and refine the alchemy. Lao Yu, please quickly prepare the materials for refining the Gu Ling Pills and send them to the alchemy room later."

"Oh, then okay, I'll go and prepare now." Old Yu nodded quickly and agreed.

Zhou Dashan glanced at Liu Zhuo and asked with a smile: "My junior brother, how are you living here?"

Although Liu Zhuo was tired of this "Zhou Pai", he had to say respectfully: "Everything is fine, thank you for your concern."

"That's good, that's good, don't forget what you promised." Zhou Dashan smiled and checked the work in the medicine warehouse, then turned around and left.

Zhou Dashan reminded himself not to forget the filial piety of the spirit stone. Liu Zhuo naturally knew it well. He did not intend to betray the debt. Although the spirit stone is of great benefit to cultivation, he did not want to offend Zhou Dashan so early because of a spirit stone.

Not long after, Lao Yu prepared the alchemy materials.

"Junior Brother Liu, I have trouble with my hands and feet. Can we go to the alchemy room to deliver materials together?" Old Yu asked kindly.

"no problem."
