Chapter 171 This is not difficult for him
Kong Yun is a disciple of Huanggu Martial Arts Academy and has been enrolled there for two years.
His cultivation progress was considered average in this top martial arts academy, but he had a good talent in alchemy, so he was chosen by Hua Yinyang with the fifth level of cultivation to become an intern.
There are naturally many benefits to working in the Taoist temple to make elixirs. For example, contributions to the martial arts academy are settled monthly, and they are a lot.
In addition, if Hua Yinyang is happy, he will distribute the leftover scraps from alchemy to his apprentices or interns.
But today, as soon as he entered the Taoist temple, he found that his master's gift had been distributed to others.
"Skin-enhancing cream!"
He ran up to Chen Mo and said sourly, "No, Junior Brother Chen, who are you? You have taken away all our resources."
Having said that, his tone sounded just like a little jealousy, but the fact that he said it showed that he didn't take it too seriously and was just joking.
Chen Mo replied: "Me? I have no background. I just helped someone a little, so that person asked Teacher Hua to give me special training."
Kong Yun expressed doubt.
Who did you help that even Master Hua had to do you a favor for? How could such a person be helped by a martial arts school student?
"Tsk tsk, then just stand there and absorb it slowly. I still have to go prepare some medicine."
"Hey, Brother Kong, come and keep me company. It's too boring to stand alone."
Kong Yun waved his hand: "No, no, no, just stand there. If you keep babbling, I can't stand it."
"Please—"
Chen Mo grabbed his wrist and said, "Anyway, preparing medicine by yourself is just washing and cutting, which is no different from preparing vegetables. Is it interesting? We can still chat together."
He used soft and hard persuasion, emotional appeals, and reasoning, using both threats and inducements, and finally got Kong Yun to nod and sit in the yard holding a bamboo basket of alchemy raw materials.
"You are a good person."
Chen Mo flattered him with a smile on his face, then lay down on the ground and started doing push-ups with one hand.
Others need to stand still to absorb the medicinal power, but he doesn't. The medicinal properties are transformed into a progress bar. When the time comes, he can draw an innate copper skin talent, which is much better than this kind of elixir made from scraps.
Calling Kong Yun, this treasure, can not only gain experience, but also increase proficiency and progress bar. It is really cool.
Chen Mo felt the progress bar rising continuously from +, +, to +, and even his hands felt stronger when doing push-ups.
But this action made Kong Yun on the side dumbfounded.
"Why don't you stand still?" he asked.
Chen Mo answered casually: "The standing posture is not strong enough, I have to make it more difficult for myself, because people like me didn't work hard before, and now I have to make up for it, otherwise I will be a waste for the rest of my life. Although I was stupid, lazy and had a bad memory before, I didn't have the ambition to make progress. But after coming here and meeting you talented seniors, I deeply realized my mistakes."
Again.
Kong Yun rolled his eyes.
These few words confused his thoughts and he completely forgot about standing still.
At the end of the morning, Chen Mo's progress bar reached , which even shocked himself.
Is this the work of a top-grade alchemist?
Just shaking off some scraps to make a spiritual medicine can improve the level by about 2%. You should know that the effectiveness of a standard first-level elixir can only increase it by 3%.
The most important thing is that spiritual medicine belongs to the category of pharmacists, and elixirs are the main business of alchemists, which means that he is not an expert in making this spiritual medicine. This is the gold content of the top dozens in the country.
"how do you feel."
After Hua Yinyang came back from outside, he saw Chen Mo picking the dried ointment off his body and asked a question.
"Teacher Hua, this is too strong, awesome!" Chen Mo gave a thumbs up.
He was not flattering her intentionally, but expressing his true feelings. The effect was better than expected, and he was a little excited for a while. However, Hua Yinyang still had something important to say: "Okay, apply the upper body now, and you can come over and use the lower body when you are free in the afternoon. I'm always here, so I'll see when you are free."
Chen Mo said solemnly: "Thank you, Mr. Hua. I can never repay you for your kindness! As long as you say a word, I will go through fire and water without hesitation."
Hua Yinyang felt somewhat relieved. Although he was only a temporary student, such sincerity still made him feel warm in his heart.
However, he didn't know that in front of Chen Mo, relief was a taboo emotion.
The boy didn't wait for him to speak, and continued: "Of course, people like me are useless. I'm stupid, lazy, have a bad memory, and have no ambition. If I climb a mountain of knives, I'll be stabbed through, and if I jump into a sea of fire, I'll turn into ash in less than three seconds. Even if I want to help you, I probably can't do much. Otherwise, I'll perform a poetry recitation for you. Alas, poetry recitation is not good either. When I was in elementary school, I could make the whole class recite the wrong words by myself."
Hua Yinyang felt his head buzzing.
"If you really want to repay me, just don't say more than fifty words to me next time you see me."
Chen Mo nodded immediately: "Okay, I'll remember Teacher Hua."
Hua Yinyang breathed a sigh of relief: "Then you should quickly eat and take a rest. Don't forget to practice in the afternoon. Don't think that drugs can replace it."
Chen Mo glanced at him, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself, and ultimately said nothing more.
Hua Yinyang was finally relieved.
"Looks like I can have some peace and quiet from now on."
Chen Mo is not lazy, nor is he unmotivated. Maybe in the eyes of others he is a bit unprofessional, but in fact he works hard every day.
In the afternoon, I went to the Taoist temple to practice with the alchemy apprentices. After all, there are requirements for the realm of alchemists. Although it is not necessary to become a master or even a saint, at least one must reach the fifth or sixth realm.
When it was almost time for dinner, Chen Mo finished his push-ups and gained a lot of experience, so he went to find Hua Yinyang to prepare for the afternoon's medicine transformation.
"Come on, take off your pants." The old man held the box of medicine eagerly.
Chen Mo glanced at the gate that was not closed: "Isn't it inappropriate?"
Hua Yinyang considerately took out a pair of solid-colored shorts that looked like the isolation suits used on operating tables.
"I don't want you to take off all your clothes, just wear this."
So Chen Mo changed into shorts in the next room.
"Can we do the upper and lower body together tomorrow?" he asked.
Hua Yinyang said, "I'm worried that if we take them together, the medicine won't be absorbed well, so we'll take them separately to be safe."
When he saw Chen Mo taking a deep breath, as if he was about to start talking, he became alarmed and interrupted the spell in advance: "You promised me this morning that you would not say more than fifty words when we meet."
Sure enough, Chen Mo closed his mouth, frowned, and looked like he was thinking about something. Suddenly, a light flashed in his eyes and he raised his head.
"Yo, yo."
"I'm lazy, stupid, unmotivated, and I don't listen to my teacher!"
"No wonder I'm practicing like I'm desperate. If you don't let me talk, I'll sing for you, skr!"
Hua Yinyang's hand froze in mid-air. He asked in astonishment, "What are you doing?"
"Freestyle, bro." Chen Mo raised his eyebrows, "Singing doesn't count as talking, right?"
Hua Yinyang was shocked but also a little impressed.
How come this doesn't bother him?
I will update more frequently recently, 2 chapters at noon, 2 chapters in the afternoon, and I will update again after get off work.
