The processing of the white thread cordyceps was simple. It only required thirteen steps, and one had to soak it for a while according to the fixed method.
It might be difficult for a true beginner to remember all the steps. However, for Lu Sheng, with his powerful Weapon Grandmaster spirit, this was a piece of cake for him.
Tu Jin only explained it once, and Lu Sheng memorized it completely. However, in order not to stand out, he asked three more times. He also asked Tu Jin to demonstrate the process before he started processing it himself.
After processing a cordyceps on the spot, Tu Jin was slightly surprised. He nodded in satisfaction.
"Two days to deal with these medicinal herbs. Is that alright? All of them must be of at least this quality. "He pointed at the finished product that Lu Sheng had just made.
"No problem." Lu Sheng nodded.
Coincidentally, he needed some time to investigate his surroundings.
Three days was enough.
Tu Jin gave his orders and left. Lu Sheng was left alone in the house to process the white thread cordyceps.
He worked from morning until noon. The plump girl called Lao Ai brought him food. Lu Sheng quickly finished his food, and continued processing the white thread cordyceps at a leisurely pace.
When he was practicing martial arts, he had processed many herbs before. This process was a piece of cake.
Night fell at a leisurely pace. Despite Lu Sheng's repeated procrastination, all the White Thread Worm Grasses were finally dealt with.
He tried his best to slow down, but the results still exceeded his expectations.
At night, Tu Jin returned from shopping. When he opened the material room, all the white thread cordyceps in the room were neatly processed. They were clean and tidy. Every single one of them was stored in a small wooden box. They were processed according to his instructions. Every single one of them was of similar quality.
"These … were all done by you?" Tu Jin stood at the door and stared at Lu Sheng.
"Mm-hm. Are the results of today's work up to your requirements?" Lu Sheng asked in a relaxed manner.
Tu Jin looked at him. He was silent for a moment before he spoke slowly.
"Yes …"
"Then, can I be your assistant?" Lu Sheng asked with a smile.
Tu Jin gave it some thought. "Do you know how to brew simple medicine?"
"A little."
"That's good. Starting tomorrow, help me brew the medicine." With that, he turned around and left the room.
Lu Sheng smiled. This was a good start.
Early the next morning, Tu Jin dragged a cart full of medicinal herbs in a relaxed manner and left the house. His routine was to leave in the morning and return at night.
Lu Sheng also received a few tasks to brew medicine, which were very easy for him. With the power of his Divine Soul, it was simply too easy for him to sense the degree of heat of the medicinal soup.
After completing the mission, he began to wander around the wooden house.
Libra City suppressed the senses of one's spirit very strongly. His Weapon Grandmaster's spirit could only spread to a few dozen meters around him. One could imagine how difficult it would be for an ordinary cultivator to even have their soul leave their body.
However, this was enough for Lu Sheng.
He quickly found out where he was.
The place where Tu Jin's Hut was located was called Net Dragon Horn. Rumor had it that it was eaten here. It seemed that someone had used a divine net to catch a dragon.
Because the terrain here was like a sharp horn, some people called it the Net Dragon Horn.
The surrounding terrain was remote, and there was only one sect in the west, called the Scarlet Cloud Sect. It was the closest martial arts sect to this place.
Lu Sheng had also found out about Libra City's method of existence.
Libra City was actually a huge organization formed by a group of merchants and ascetic cultivators.
The merchants believed in absolute fairness, while the ascetic cultivators believed in absolute justice and fairness.
Both sides complemented each other and created a relatively fair environment. Hence, it attracted more and more rogue cultivators to join. The descendants of the rogue cultivators lived and reproduced here.
Several hundred thousand years later, it gradually evolved into an independent small world.
Lu Sheng found out from the old people who lived nearby that the truly honorable people in Libra City were the people who lived in the main city. Apart from the main city, the people in the four major districts were actually low-class people. They were the weak ones who provided various services and resources to the people in the main city.
In this place, the identity jade archive was the most important thing. Without it, one would not be able to do anything.
From the words of the people around him, Lu Sheng could see their desire and yearning for the main city.
However, the contribution points needed to become a resident of the main city was terrifyingly high. Only by becoming a cultivator and participating in the expedition to the outer galactic regions would one be able to obtain many contribution points.
After gaining a rough understanding of the situation, Lu Sheng helped Tu Jin process the medicinal ingredients and brew the medicine. Everything went smoothly.
At this moment, a letter was delivered from afar. Tu Jin immediately felt helpless.
The letter was for his daughter and first disciple.
His first disciple, De Cheng, had invited Bi 'an to join the Scarlet Cloud Sect. Now that the Scarlet Goldfish Monsters were rampaging, the Scarlet Cloud Sect had to summon its disciples to fight against the tide of Scarlet Goldfish Monsters.
The two of them were afraid that Tu Jin would not allow them to leave. Hence, they left the letter and ran away on their own. When Tu Jin found out, he was so angry that he could not eat for two days.
Fortunately, he had De Yun's help. Lu Sheng comforted him, and he managed to catch his breath.
However, no matter what, the initially bustling wooden house's courtyard was suddenly deserted.
Days passed. Lu Sheng received the identity jade archive that Tu Jin had applied for for him. However, if he wanted to obtain temporary residency rights, he would need more contribution points.
He had obtained 13 contribution points in total. All of them were from processing the medicinal ingredients. They were given to him by Tu Jin.
Thirteen points meant that he could stay here for more than a month.
Of course, during this free time, Lu Sheng worked as Tu Jin's assistant while slowly learning about Tu Jin's treatment of various ailments and organs.
The excellence of the Tu Style Healing Art was soon displayed before him.
This healing art that had been passed down for a long time had two greatest characteristics.
Firstly, it was the Three Limits of Tu Jin's Godly Path's secret technique.
Secondly, it specialized in organ transplantation and healing arts.
This was combined with the Tu Style Healing Art's unique cultivation method.
Cultivators could cultivate special energy that was the best supplementary healing art. This energy was not offensive, and its healing effects were about the same as other healing arts.
After Lu Sheng understood the Tu Style's main system, he immediately understood that this was highly likely to be a great supplement and aid to his martial arts system.
This was the main reason why he was willing to stay here patiently.
He rummaged through the wooden hut inside and out. Without Tu Jin around, Lu Sheng still could not find the core cultivation method here. He tried the Psychological Guidance Healing Art, but it was useless. Hence, he gave up on the idea of leaving after obtaining the cultivation method.
Unfortunately, he was interested in the Tu Style Healing Art. He needed Tu Jin to teach him. With no other choice, Lu Sheng had been waiting for an opportunity.
Time passed slowly. In the blink of an eye, more than a month had passed.
…
Tu Jin was extremely depressed.
In this era, there was actually no one who was willing to learn what he had learned. This was the greatest mockery of his Tu Style Healing Art.
The powerful healing art that he had always been proud of seemed to have become an outdated remnant in this era.
He sat in the main hall of the wooden hut. He held a tobacco pipe diagonally in his hand, puffing on it.
De Yun was handling a pot of viscous, bubbling red medicine on his right.
Lu Yue was handling a pile of extremely precious Purple Sandalwood Flower leaves on his left.
Tu Jin sighed and asked, "I need both of you to help me deal with something troublesome today. Do you still remember the Little Cloud Origin Art that I taught you yesterday?"
"Yes." "I don't …"
Lu Yue and De Yun's answers were completely different. Tu Jin rubbed his eyes helplessly.
Initially, he could tolerate De Yun's clumsiness. However, ever since Lu Yue became his assistant, he felt that De Yun was incredibly stupid.
Recently, he had to deal with an extremely important wild herb. Hence, he needed two assistants who were more knowledgeable and skilled. Hence, he taught them a simple technique from the Tu Style Healing Art.
Unfortunately, De Yun was still incredibly stupid. On the other hand, Lu Yue was far more intelligent than he had imagined.
Tu Jin began to consider if he should make Lu Yue his successor for the healing art.
In reality, he had openly recruited disciples in the vicinity who were willing to learn the healing art. Unfortunately, nobody was willing.
Cultivating the Tu Style Healing Art was extremely difficult. One would need to practice it repeatedly to master the most basic technique.
Even if they managed to learn it, the rewards would be far less than learning martial arts with the same amount of time and effort.
A few young people had been tricked. They practiced for two years, but they could not even reach the first level of the healing art.
Their peers who went to a martial arts sect were already capable of splitting rocks and accepting bounty missions to support their families.
Moreover, they had to spend quite a lot of ice money to practice the healing art.
This was a scam!
Ever since then, nobody was willing to learn the healing art of their own accord. In the end, even Tu Jin's eldest disciple and daughter were unwilling.
Hence, his main concern now was not whether he would teach it to them, but whether they were willing to learn it.
Tu Jin glanced at Lu Yue as he sighed.
"I'll try asking her later. Young people nowadays … They're too impulsive … What's wrong with the healing art? Healing the wounded and dying. That's how my wife was saved back then … "
"By the way, Sir, the Little Cloud Origin Art seems to target the herbs in the flesh mushroom. It's only effective on flesh mushrooms that are less than a thousand years old. It won't work if they're older. I've read about it in the medicine book you recommended to me. Your ingredient … "Lu Sheng reminded him softly.
"Oh? There's such a thing? "Even Tu Jin himself did not notice this. He had been so busy lately that his mind was almost muddled.
Now that he was reminded by Lu Sheng, he was shocked. He hastily tried to recall. It was true.
"It's true!" Tu Jin stood up and paced back and forth.
"It's all thanks to your timely reminder that the Little Cloud Origin Art can't be used anymore. It'll affect the medicinal effect of the finished product."
Lu Sheng's reminder seemed to have helped him make up his mind.
Tu Jin looked at Lu Sheng and suddenly thought of an idea. It did not matter if the young man was willing or not, he would have to learn the healing art from him obediently.
After all, he held the young man's extension of residence in Libra City. If the young man was unwilling, he would not extend it.
When he thought of this, Tu Jin immediately felt better. Perhaps he would succeed this time.
