Servant of the Otherworldly Pharmacopoeia

On the seventh day of Dongyue, when the weather was just beginning to be hot, Xu Jiu disappeared from the witch doctor clan.

The city also fell into a strange atmosphere. Everyone was more or less puzzled. The guards of the manor who usually maintained law and order began to appear in large numbers, and quickly spread to every corner.To enter and leave the city gate, you have to walk tremblingly under the eyes of two rows of guards waiting for you, which makes half of the hawkers who enter the city every day.

Those who are not used to this silence obviously include the wealthy businessmen and wealthy households in the city.They are doing business in the entire territory, and now the floating population has dropped sharply, and they have to search when entering and leaving the city, which has forced many businesses to stagnate.

"What is that adult doing again?"

"I heard that the witch doctor clan seized the people in the manor. That adult is searching!"

It’s true that the King of Hades fights the little ghosts, but the witch doctor tribe caused them to delay their business, and they don’t know who they lost to make such a big fight.

Dutu Manor, Black Tower.

"My lord, it's getting late, you should rest." Huan quietly came behind the man.

Du Tuxuan put down the brochure at hand: "Yes."

The butler leaned over and took out the account book from the chair and put it on the table, and pushed him to the bathroom.

"No news from Jiu?"

The butler said: "Yes."

Du Tuxuan touched his heart: "It's been five days."

Seeing his tired face, he felt distressed: "My lord, Jiu is a safe child and will come back safely."

"If he is safe, there will be no troublemakers in the world." Du Tuxuan closed his eyes as if tired, "A fool."

The butler silently undressed him: "Jiu hasn't had an accident yet, sir, you can't wear yourself down."

Du Tuxuan didn't answer, just closed his eyes, clasped his hands together, with an indelible gloom on his face.

He made a contract with Jiu. Although the effectiveness was greatly reduced, the life and death of both parties did feel.He didn't feel Jiu's vitality disappear, but he couldn't perceive his situation.Du Tuxuan hated his weak mental power many times in his life, and each time it would make him depressed for a long time, but this time he couldn't bear it especially.The hopeless pain of the past will always fade over time, fading into a symbol in memory, and then I can always feel its bone-eating pain again.

"My lord?" The butler touched him lightly.

Du Tuxuan didn't respond, and seemed to be asleep.

I don't know how the kid who made adults worry is doing now?If the big steward were to recall the headaches he had experienced in recent years, bringing Jiu back to the manor was an example.He didn't regret bringing that child back, he just blamed himself for not teaching him well.Jiulai was not young when he was born, his personality was already formed, he escaped stubbornness, and he would not change after repeated admonitions.He also asked the child to learn etiquette, but when he acted like a baby, the adults felt sorry for him and didn't want to hold him back. The etiquette learning was anticlimactic, and finally nothing happened.

Falling into someone else's trap recklessly, it's because I didn't teach it well.

The night of Dutu Manor came again.However, there was one person who had been in the darkness for an unknown amount of time.

At the beginning, Xu Jiu kept walking like crazy, her legs swelled several times, and her bones were broken.Later, when he finally got down, he thought of Du Tuxuan.How long have you been here?Little Xuanzi, why don't you come to me...

His stomach was rumbling non-stop, and Xu Jiu entered the space before fainting from hunger.

The space is completely different from the outside, one is eternally dark and the other is forever day.

Xu Jiu covered his eyes when he saw the light, and liquid flowed down his fingers.When he was outside, he often felt that his whole life was over, but when he saw the seeds of space, he realized that he had been in for less than a month.

This made him even more desperate.

Why didn't Du Tuxuanshuang look for him?Do you think you are dead?Yes, it's been a month.

Who would live in a place without food or drink for a month?

The loneliness made him go crazy, and he suddenly remembered that in his previous life, he saw reporters interviewing astronauts who landed on the moon and asked him what it was like to be alone on the moon.At that time, Xu Jiu thought it was very cool. There are so many people in the world, only a few people are lucky enough to see the great wonder of the universe. They must be very excited.He forgot what the astronaut answered, but now he can answer for him.

That is loneliness - the fear of being abandoned by the world, the loneliness of being afraid of never going back.

Every living body will feel lonely, not being understood, having few friends in the world, and having to follow the crowd to cover up.But those are still the loneliness in the crowd, not the panic that the world suddenly has only one living creature.

Xu Jiu stayed in the space and suddenly didn't like to go out.A month was about to pass, and Du Tuxuanshuang might not even be able to find him.

"Who would have thought that I was still alive?" He said loudly, "Du Tuxuanshuang, are you still looking for me?"

"It's only been a month, you need to look for me a little longer."

"Look for me for at least a year."

"..."

"Is a year long or short..." Xu Jiu held his head and thought for a while, "What if he thinks it's long?"

"He thinks it's fine if the time is too long. If it's shorter, he can live a happier life."

"Ah," Xu Jiu plunged into the water, and vomited sullenly, "Just forget it if you can't find it. It's not good if you don't feel happy."

He rubbed his eyes sadly, and his eyes were red: "If you can find me, I have something good for you."

In the next few days, Xu Jiu's chatter became more and more serious, and he often said a sentence back and forth like a cart wheel, but no one heard him anyway.Like an old man who is old and forgetful, he talks to himself, and later he fell in love with talking to the system.

[Dididi, plant No. 06 is mature. ]

In order to let the system speak, he began to frantically fill in the pharmacopoeia. The sixth field was the trade road grass. The mature trade road had bunches of purple-red berries hanging on it, but the smell was really unpleasant.The commercial route is mainly to use the rhizomes as medicine. Xu Jiu dug out the plants and washed them with water, cut the rhizomes into the small ou, and began to experiment with the medicinal materials he collected.

Due to his earnestness and the fact that he has collected a lot of medicinal materials, his progress is quite fast.

After trying less than a hundred kinds of materials, the progress of the trade route has reached the requirements.

[Dididi, plant No. 06 has been collected. ]

Xu Jiu smiled numbly, the only thing talking to him in this world is the system.Although it was the rigid voice of a machine, it sounded like heaven to his ears. He worked so hard to do the task just to chat with the system.Although the chat partner is relatively reticent, he can talk more.

"Hey, I'm pretty good."

[Dididi, No. 07 medicine field is now open. ]

"It's only been two days, at most three days? I untied a piece of field, so clever, I was convinced."

The seventh medicine field appeared next to the pond. Xu Jiu stared blankly at the pharmacopoeia, and became depressed again.It will take another month for the system to speak next time.

Trade routes are poisonous vegetation, but at the same time, they can fight poisonous diseases and cure some sores and swelling.Xu Jiu flipped through his medicinal properties at random, and suddenly his eyes were attracted by a line of words - "a piece of wet white root, and rhinoceros bead powder, can overcome poison, and has its own fluorescence."

The rhinoceros bead is the night pearl that Xu Jiu brought into the space. This kind of beads can emit light. Du Tuxuan has a lot of them, which are taken out from the jaw of the rhinoceros and can be used for lighting.

Xu Jiu turned the bead out on the second day after it fell in, but after taking it out, he found that the bright rhinoceros bead was automatically annihilated by the darkness when it went outside, and he still couldn't see his fingers.

The darkness seems to be a black hole that swallows all light, and only thick black is eternal.

Xu Jiu nervously ground the rhinoceros beads with a file and sprinkled them on the root of the shanglu a little bit. He was still dissatisfied after sprinkling a layer, until the root of the shanglu was wrapped like a fried chicken leg.

Holding the wrapped Shanglu root in both hands, he took a deep breath and left the space.

... another maddening darkness.

Xu Jiu stood there in a daze, closing her eyes sadly.

In fact, he didn't report much hope. It's better if it works, but it doesn't matter...it doesn't matter.Holding something in his hand, he opened his eyes in relief.

His eyes felt a little dazzled, because scattered stars appeared in front of his eyes, quite like the illusion that appeared after being knocked unconscious.But—he waved his hand in front of his eyes, and the star flickered, but it was actually a little brighter.

Shang Lugen was like a special effect light on a gorgeous stage, getting brighter and brighter, clearly telling Xu Jiu that it was not an illusion.

The yingying green light gathered together, from weak to strong, from dots to flakes, and finally turned into a bright yellow moon lantern.It glows faintly, breaking through the darkness quietly, becoming more and more independent from the world against the backdrop of the surrounding black mist.

Xu Jiu held Shang Lugen in front of his eyes, and looked greedily at the light.The black mist was quickly absorbed by the fluorescence like a gossamer. The more it absorbed, the brighter the light, and the clearer Xu Jiu could see.

He suddenly woke up.

This is clearly a scam.

This place is artificial, and dark because it is full of poisonous gas!

The closer he was to Shanglugen, the more he became sober, thinking of his unreasonable despair and paranoia a few days ago, his heart was ashamed.He is not such a person who is easily despaired. In Xu Jiu's two lifetimes, even in his previous life, his life was on the verge of death and he could not be easily despaired. How could he seek death while in good health and with food and drink?

He was looking for Du Tuxuan Shuang.

He fell into such a place, Du Tuxuanshuang might not be able to find him, he had to go out by himself.

With light, everything looks simple.He was surprised to find that he fell into a huge circle, and the floor was tilted at a clever angle, making people think that he was walking in a straight line, but he was actually circling around this circle!

The black mist makes people's senses dull and numb, and if they smoke too much, illusions will appear. People can't extricate themselves from the illusions, and they will think that it is the real situation.In reality, the wall was ten paces away.

And being able to use medicine so proficiently, the witch doctor clan is really extraordinary.

Xu Jiu touched the wall with his hand.
