Chapter 114 The benefits of being thick-skinned
"Are you serious?" Su Tan asked.
"Really! Really! The boy's sincere heart is witnessed by heaven and earth!" Yun Buliu said with full energy.
Puff...
Su Tan vomited blood.
Boy?
An old man who sounded sixty or seventy years old called himself a boy?
Did he think I was an old monster?
Su Tan felt uncomfortable and looked strange.
Yun Buliu... was well-known in the Tianxiang Empire, and the name of the King of Medicine had been passed down for a long time.
Being treated as an elder by such an old grandfather~
I am not used to it.
Very uncomfortable.
The key is that this guy is not just talking.
He is very serious.
He really thinks he is a junior...
Su Tan pondered for a moment.
"I am not talented enough to be the master of the old man, please stand up." Su Tan said.
He would definitely not accept Yun Buliu as his apprentice.
First of all, Su Tan had no intention of accepting an apprentice, and secondly...
He would not teach people to refine medicine at all.
Do you want him to teach Yun Buliu to refine medicine by saying, just light a fire, throw some herbs in, yes, yes, yes... just throw them in, OK, the pill is done?
That is definitely not possible.
How important is the word "master"?
Su Tan thought he was not qualified to be called a master.
He could not teach Yun Buliu anything.
Don't make promises lightly, so don't let people down.
"Sir... please don't embarrass me... what old man? Just call me Xiao Liu..."
Yun Buliu said.
"If you can't be called a master, then who else can be my master in Tianxiang? You are too modest, please agree to accept me as your apprentice, and I will serve you well!"
He kept calling me Xiao Xiao.
Su Tan's face was full of black lines.
Am I that old?
Or do you think you are young?
In this world, reaching a certain level of cultivation does have the effect of keeping your face young, but... Su Tan is not that kind of person, he is only in his early twenties.
Maybe as a blind man, this body has experienced many hardships, and looks a little more vicissitudes than his peers, but compared with Yun Buliu, he is definitely much younger than him.
The call of "boy" makes someone's heart tremble.
Besides, you still serve me?
At such an old age, I can serve you.
No, no, absolutely not.
Su Tan will definitely not agree.
"I really have nothing to teach you, you get up." According to the classification of alchemists, the level of the pills that Su Tan can refine is definitely not as high as Yun Buliu.
"No... Sir, you are too modest. Although the liquid medicine you refine is only a low-level liquid medicine, the quality has reached the point of perfection. With such a medicine refining technique, it is enough for me to benefit endlessly!" Yun Buliu said.
What's more, there may be other skills?
"Perfect?" Su Tan thought about it. The medicine obviously still had defects...
But in Yun Buliu's eyes, it was really perfect.
Maybe this is the difference between the system and the people in this world.
Or... the alchemy in this world is too backward.
But no matter whether he has the ability or not, he doesn't want to accept a disciple.
After a long stalemate.
Su Tan still doesn't accept.
Yun Buliu finally had no choice...
"Then can you give me some medicine liquid, and go back to study it... Don't worry, even if we are not formally called master and disciple... But as long as I can understand one or two principles from the medicine liquid, I will treat you as a teacher!" Yun Buliu took a step back and said.
"It's up to you, just some medicine liquid." Su Tan said.
It's just bath water.
The medicine liquid has been diluted beyond recognition.
If he wants it, then give it to him.
Yun Buliu's eyes lit up when he heard this, and his expression was overjoyed.
"Thank you, Master!"
Then, Yun Buliu performed a half-teacher ceremony.
"Although Sir does not accept Bu Liu as a disciple, if you are willing to teach me the pharmacology of the medicine, you will be half of my master. As the ancients said, a teacher who teaches you one word is also a teacher, so, you can accept this Master Sir."
Then...
Dong Dong Dong...
He kowtowed five times.
As for the remaining four kowtows...he did not kowtow for the time being.
Su Tan shook his head helplessly.
This old man is too particular.
"Hua La La~"
Yun Bu Liu took out a jade bottle from his arms.
"Then Sir, I will take the medicine."
"Go ahead, go ahead!" He only took a little diluted medicine, but he asked again and again.
Well, not bad, he is quite sensible.
It's just that the apprenticeship...
is not very good.
After taking the medicine, Yun Bu Liu stood behind Yun Chu a little embarrassedly.
"Sir, I'm really sorry for wasting your time. Please help Mr. Yun and treat his illness. I promise I won't say another word to disturb you." Yun Buliu said.
He thought he had gained a lot from this trip.
Not only did he become a half-master, but he also got several bottles of perfect quality liquid medicine.
He made a lot of money.
In order not to arouse Su Tan's disgust, he decided not to speak.
Yun Chu was stunned by Yun Buliu's operation.
She also wanted to become Su Tan's master.
But it has been more than a month, and she still dared not say it. Today, after watching Yun Buliu's actions, it turns out that... things are not as complicated as she imagined.
Didn't Yun Buliu almost succeed?
Now he is considered Su Tan's half-disciple, how about... I also try?
She hesitated for a moment.
She mustered up the courage to look at Su Tan.
She said weakly:
"That... that sir... Actually, I... I... I also want to become your master..."
When Su Tan heard this, he paused for a short period of time.
He originally wanted to keep Yunchu.
Now the other party suddenly wants to become a disciple, which coincides with him.
But after thinking about it...
Did this girl do this on purpose?
They say I don’t accept disciples. I just gave Yun Buliu various reasons, and now I suddenly accept you as a disciple. How do you want Yun Buliu, who is standing next to me, to think of me?
Su Tan said angrily: "Don't cause trouble!"
With that said, he began to treat the girl.
Yun Chu opened his mouth...
Speechless.
She could never look down like Yun Buliu.
This matter was suppressed again.
This is a question of whether one is thick-skinned or not.
…
Yun Buliu and Yun Chu left Su Tan's courtyard.
Yun Buliu couldn't stop the smile on his face.
"Holy... Mr. Yun, thank you for bringing me here, otherwise I'm afraid Yun wouldn't have had this opportunity..." Yun Buliu said.
"Just call me Chu'er." Yun Chu said calmly.
"Yes, Yun...Chu'er, I'm eager to go back to my residence to study Mr. Su's medicinal solution, so...I'll just take my leave!" Yun Buliu said.
"Yeah!" Yunchu nodded.
Yun Buliu was overjoyed and went straight to the farmhouse he rented in Chenjiacun.
Looking at Yun Buliu's back as he left happily, Yun Chu actually felt a little bit envious...
"Dong dong dong~"
"Open the door, Xiu'er, my teacher is back!"
A move outside the small courtyard of the farmhouse.
Yun Buliu knocked on the door.
"Coming, coming..." A woman's voice came from the yard.
Creak~
The door opens.
A woman with excellent appearance and temperament opened the door.
She wore a single ponytail and left her bangs straight.
Wearing a white corset.
Perfectly outlines body curves.
The whole person stood up straight.
It gives people the impression of being capable...tall...a lady with a bookish aroma.
She is one of Yun Buliu's only two disciples in his life.
Shangguan Xiuer.
"Master, you... look so happy today." Shangguan Xiuer's pretty little face in a dove egg suit was full of doubts.
"Haha... I can't hide anything from you. I encountered a great thing today as my teacher!" Yun Buliu laughed heartily and pushed the door open.
