Chapter 102 The poison has not yet been cleared
"Little friend Lin, please come with me."
"Thank you, Elder Dan."
After the alchemy competition was over, Lin Qingqing followed Elder Dan into the treasure house of the Alchemy Pavilion, where all the spiritual herbs and elixirs of the Tianjian Sect were kept.
As she walked along, Lin Qingqing made various exclamations, such as:
"This third-level spiritual herb is growing really well!"
"Wow, this is the first time I've seen this Black Turtle Pill. It's very difficult to make."
And so on...
It's just that she's too noisy, otherwise he really wants Lin Qingqing to stay in the Alchemy Pavilion for a few days. It's because of her wide knowledge that she can identify all the elixirs or spiritual herbs that many disciples can't recognize. She is such a smart, diligent and serious child! Elder Dan thought so until he heard Lin Qingqing say...
"Elder Dan, the sect master said before that I can use any of the first-level spiritual herbs in the sect, so please prepare these spiritual herbs. First, 200 plants each of Green Wood Grass, Purple Wood Grass, Pure Heart Grass, and Moon Devouring Grass, 100 plants each of Flame Grass, Devouring Grass, Blood Flower, and Double-headed Flower, 50 plants each of Soul Replenishing Plant, Blood Clotting Flower, Blood Essence Flower, and Ghost Grass Vine..."
Lin Qingqing rattled off a long list of names of spiritual herbs, which made Elder Dan feel dizzy and wanted to cry. He called out the sect master's name and said, "Most of your sect's first-level spiritual herbs have been taken away by this girl. Are you sure you don't want to do anything about it?"
Unfortunately, Chu Yu was not present, so Elder Dan had to follow Lin Qingqing's request and configure the first-level spiritual herbs she reported according to her needs one by one. There were also 100 second-level spiritual herbs and 50 third-level spiritual herbs, which were all allocated to her according to the types of spiritual herbs Lin Qingqing needed.
When Lin Qingqing came out of the treasure house of the Alchemy Pavilion, she looked as if she was bathed in spring breeze and walked with the wind. On the other hand, Elder Dan looked as if he had been skinned alive and had lost several times more weight...
After Lin Qingqing thanked Elder Dan, she also mentioned it to him, saying, "Elder Dan, please help me reserve the advanced alchemy room for the whole day tomorrow."
Elder Dan readily agreed. Fortunately, he didn't have any other requests, otherwise Lin Qingqing would have to empty the entire Alchemy Pavilion. However...
"My dear Lin, there is something I want to say but I don't know whether I should say it or not."
Lin Qingqing noticed that he had a strange expression and seemed to have something to say to her, so she responded immediately.
"Elder Dan has something to say. I have to thank Elder Dan for telling me about the pill tribulation today, otherwise these top-grade Dust-Reducing Pills of mine would have been gone," Lin Qingqing said as she took out a brocade box from her long sleeves. Inside was the five top-grade Dust-Reducing Pills from the Banxia furnace. "I'm sorry for bothering you today and taking a lot of things from the Alchemy Pavilion. I'm going to return these five Dust-Reducing Pills to their original owner."
Elder Dan was secretly laughing in his heart but he didn't show it on the surface. He said he was trying to shirk the responsibility but he accepted it with his hands without leaving any trace.
"This old fox." Lin Qingqing muttered to herself.
"Since you are so sincere, I will ask you directly: have you ever been poisoned by any strange drug in recent years?"
Hearing this, Lin Qingqing showed a surprised expression. She couldn't hide it in time, so she answered truthfully: "I was indeed poisoned by a special kind of poison. How did you know about it?"
Elder Dan looked mysterious, completely different from before. He stretched his beard and said, "When you approached me inadvertently today, I smelled a special scent on you."
Lin Qingqing immediately turned her back and lifted her long sleeves to smell, but she didn't find any peculiar smell on her body. She asked in confusion, "I don't smell it!"
"Ordinary people can't smell it." Seeing Lin Qingqing's interesting behavior, Elder Dan smiled kindly.
I see. He is saying that he is born in the year of the dog, right?
Lin Qingqing looked at him doubtfully and asked, "What's wrong with this?"
"Put out your hand."
Elder Dan asked Lin Qingqing to stretch out her left hand. She readily put her hand forward, and saw the other party put his hand on hers, touching her heart meridian, and then released a trace of true energy into her body, which then traveled around in her meridians.
Not long after, Elder Dan withdrew his hand, his face darkening.
Looking at Elder Dan's serious expression, Lin Qingqing couldn't help but feel uneasy and asked cautiously, "Is it serious?"
"It's not yet hopeless, but..." Elder Dan hesitated.
"Just say what you want to say. It's even more uncomfortable if you keep hesitating." Lin Qingqing was too tired to complain. Old man Danzhang was okay, but he had a small problem of being hesitant to speak, which was unacceptable to straightforward people.
Seeing her urging him, Elder Dan quickened his speaking speed and said, "But if we delay for a while longer, I'm afraid it will cause irreversible damage to our meridians. Fortunately, you are lucky to have met a Dan cultivator like me who does good things without leaving a name."
"Excuse me for interrupting. I know your name. It's not like I'm doing a good deed without leaving my name." Lin Qingqing looked at him with her eyes wide open in disbelief.
"Hey, my friend, you must not know who is known as the detoxification expert in the West," he said without waiting for Lin Qingqing's answer, "That person is me!"
"Oh!" Lin Qingqing was not very concerned about these irrelevant topics. She wanted to know more about her current physical condition, but she was embarrassed to interrupt Elder Dan who was immersed in self-indulgence.
"Isn't this old man awesome?"
Seeing Elder Dan looking at her expectantly, Lin Qingqing couldn't help but nodded and said something against her will: "Great!"
Elder Dan was so happy that his face was beaming with joy. He immediately patted his chest and assured her: "I will do my best to remove all the remaining poison in your body!"
At this time, Lin Qingqing realized that the poison she had been infected with last time had not been completely eliminated. Recalling the process of detoxification, she frowned and asked in confusion: "But the poison was eliminated at the time, and it did not recur afterwards."
"But did you use the detoxification pill?" asked Elder Dan.
Lin Qingqing shook her head and did not answer, mainly because she was embarrassed to tell the other party what method was used to detoxify. Afterwards, she did consult relevant books and confirmed that the detoxification method was exactly as her predecessors said.
Seeing that she said no more, Elder Dan did not ask any more questions, but explained to her from another perspective why there was residual poison.
"There are thousands of strange poisons in the world, and each poison has its common aspects and individual aspects. The common aspects represent the same manifestations of the same type of poisons, but some poisons do not show their common aspects, which does not mean that there are no common aspects, but they may be hidden; and the individual aspects represent its characteristics, such as the unique time of poisoning, the special manifestations after poisoning, etc. May I ask if you have taken the detoxification pill?"
"Not really. That kind of poison cannot be cured by taking detoxification pills."
Elder Dan nodded and said, "That's right. The remaining poison in your body is the common aspect of that poison. As long as you take the corresponding detoxification pill, you will be fine."
"Thank you, Elder Dan, for telling me." Elder Dan's explanation made her suddenly realize what was going on, and she bowed respectfully to express her gratitude.
"What kind of poison did you get poisoned by, young friend?" Elder Dan asked again.
But it was quite embarrassing to answer this question. Lin Qingqing hesitated and couldn't say anything. But when she saw Elder Dan's concerned look, she lost all her shyness and said, "Seven days."
