An Ordinary Path to Immortality

Chapter 52 Dealing with drug residues and taking care of business

Shao Qing was taken away, and Fang Ping didn't know where he was taken.

However, we learned from the onlookers that Shao Qing would most likely be taken to his parents.

It seems that Shao Qing's parents also live in Fangshi and run a grocery store.

But think about it, if someone comes to be an apprentice for no reason, the shopkeeper will definitely not want it.

Shao Qing deliberately caused the furnace to explode this time, causing damage to many elixirs in the elixir room. The shopkeeper's rough calculation revealed that more than fifty elixirs had been lost.

This is not counting the bombed alchemy furnace.

With such a big loss, the shopkeeper will definitely not let it go.

Fang Ping didn't care about how the shopkeeper dealt with Shao Qing or how to recover the losses.

On the other hand, Fang Ping felt that it would be more relaxed and comfortable for him to be an apprentice here without Shao Qing.

Shao Qing was taken away, and the others lost interest and left.

Master Zhang, on the other hand, remained silent and looked ugly, not knowing what he was thinking.

Fang Ping silently tidied up the destroyed alchemy room alone. He had been busy for a long time and finally managed to tidy up the alchemy room again.

He even sorted out all the lost elixirs, made a list, and prepared to report it to the shopkeeper when he went back in the evening.

As for the other elixirs, Fang Ping behaved himself and did not fish in troubled waters or take advantage of the opportunity.

Soon, the shopkeeper sent a new alchemy furnace, but Master Zhang was not in the mood to make alchemy today because of Shao Qing's incident.

Seeing that Fang Ping had also organized the alchemy room in order, he simply asked Fang Ping to go home early.

So Fang Ping went to the front hall of the Dan Pavilion and presented all the damaged pills to the shopkeeper for review.

"Yes, the number is right."

The shopkeeper was not polite, he put away the damaged elixirs and warned Fang Ping:

"Fang Ping, that boy Shao Qing is doing bad things. He often steals elixirs from the Dan Pavilion. You must not imitate him in the future. Otherwise, the Three Immortals of Lishan will be in trouble."

Fang Ping quickly assured: "Shopkeeper, please rest assured. Fang Ping is just here as an apprentice. He hopes to learn a little bit of alchemy skills from the alchemist so that he can have a livelihood in his craft in the future. He will never commit suicide for the sake of immediate profit." Things about the future.

Not to mention embarrassing my brothers and sisters. "

"That's good. Shao Qing is gone. You have to work harder during this period and serve the alchemist alone to make alchemy. I will add another apprentice when a suitable candidate is available in a few days."

Fang Ping originally wanted to tell the other party that he was fully qualified on his own, but then he thought about it. They had two apprentices, and they might also have the intention of monitoring each other.

So Fang Ping could only say: "It is more convenient for me to learn from the alchemist alone. If there is another one who doesn't understand anything like me, I have to teach him, and that won't be fun."

"Hahaha, you brat, you're quite petty." The shopkeeper laughed and cursed, then asked, "Do you live outside the city?"

"Yes, when I first came to Fangshi, I built a thatched cottage outside the city and lived with my brothers and sisters."

The shopkeeper nodded and said: "Okay, if that's the case, then you should work hard. From now on, if there is any waste residue of elixirs that failed to be refined when the Dan Pavilion is opened, please find a place to deal with it after you leave the market."

When Fang Ping heard this, he was overjoyed, but on the surface he said calmly: "The shopkeeper is joking, this is my job, it's all what I should do, there's no such thing as hard work."

Happiness came so suddenly. Wasn't the reason why he chose a shop that made talismans or made alchemy for the scraps of talisman paper and the dregs of alchemy medicine?

I thought I would mention it to the shopkeeper after getting familiar with it for a few days, but I didn't expect that the shopkeeper mentioned it himself.

Fang Ping naturally agreed without hesitation to such a good thing.

The shopkeeper laughed again, very satisfied with Fang Ping's attitude.

Unlike the other people in the Dan Pavilion, they were afraid of being exposed to the erysipelas in the residue of the elixir, and asking them to deal with the residue one by one would be like killing them.

You see, Fang Ping, when he heard that he was asked to dispose of the medicine residue, he was as happy as rewarding him with spiritual stones.

What a good, down-to-earth boy.

So the shopkeeper threw a storage bag to Fang Ping and said, "Here is this storage bag for you. You can compare it with yours and see which one is better. Keep the good one for yourself, and keep the bad one for yourself." It’s dregs of medicine.”

Fang Ping took the storage bag and took a look. What a good guy. As expected of Dan Pavilion, he was indeed very wealthy. A storage bag filled with medicine dregs was actually a foot square.

It is nearly half the space larger than the storage bag he is using now.

Fang Ping was overjoyed and thanked the shopkeeper profusely.

"Okay, okay, it's just a low-level storage bag, but when you leave the Dan Pavilion, you have to return another one."

Fang Ping nodded in agreement, and after asking the shopkeeper again to confirm that there were no other arrangements, he returned to his residence.

After knocking on the door one by one, they found that Zhang Yuan and the others still had not returned.

With a bigger and better storage bag, Fang Ping exchanged the contents of the two storage bags.

After calculating the time, there are still two days until the next full moon night.

Based on his previous experience, Fang Ping felt that it was a bit too wasteful to refining the Wood Toad with only some medicinal dregs and a bottle of Qi-Refining Pill in his hand.

"It would be nice if I could find something else."

Fang Ping thought secretly in his heart.

But for a while, he couldn't think of where to go to get something that could be refined by the Wood Toad.

"Forget it, let's go to the market tomorrow and see if there are any scraps of talisman paper that we can buy."

He actually didn't want to go to those talisman-making shops to buy talisman paper scraps, mainly because he didn't know if there were people who knew the secret method to refine those talisman paper scraps into complete talisman paper.

If there were, buying those scraps by himself would definitely affect other people's financial resources, which would inevitably cause displeasure to others.

If not, then his act of purchasing scraps by himself might attract the attention of someone with ulterior motives, thus bringing trouble to himself.

"Oh, forget it, I'll ask the alchemist or the shopkeeper tomorrow."

The next day, Master Dan Zhang started to refine the elixir, and Fang Ping finally took the position of Danhuo Tongzi again to help the alchemist put in spiritual medicine.

Because he had experience before, Fang Ping did not make any mistakes in the process of refining the Huilingdan.

However, even so, the alchemist refined ten furnaces of elixir, and three furnaces of elixir still failed to be refined for various reasons.

In this regard, the alchemist was not unhappy, but praised Fang Ping a few words, and was obviously very satisfied with Fang Ping's performance today.

After the alchemy was over, the success rate of the elixir was as high as 70%. Master Dan Zhang was in a good mood and let Fang Ping go home early again.

Fang Ping cleaned up the alchemy room and recorded all the consumption and submitted it to the shopkeeper.

"Okay, little guy, you performed very well. Master Zhang even came to praise you." The shopkeeper was also very satisfied with Fang Ping's performance.

"It's all what I should do. You and Master Zhang are really too kind." After saying this modestly, Fang Ping put away the medicine residue today, rubbed his hands and told the shopkeeper his intentions:

"Shopkeeper, I have been in the first level of Qi Refining for a long time. Recently, I am going to buy some pills to try to break through. I wonder if you have any cheap and effective pills here."

The shopkeeper didn't expect Fang Ping to buy medicine from him, and couldn't help but teasing: "Hey, little guy, you are going to take care of my business. Come on, please come this way, sir."

Fang Ping waved his hands repeatedly, jumped aside as if frightened and said: "Shopkeeper, you are embarrassing me, I can't afford it."
