Crossing the Sword

Chapter 25 Shen Nong Cao Jing

Seeing that Emperor Yan spoke so easily, and he was obviously confident about everything, Ye Shisan couldn't help but feel that this world was too complicated. It seemed that the IQ of people in this society was not worse than that of modern people. The cunning mayor he met before was able to control everything. Now that he met a real master, he realized that Emperor Yan was very deep and unpredictable. Although with his identity, it was not difficult for him to come to Shangdang, he had not guessed his thoughts by observing his words and expressions until now, and he had rarely encountered such a thing in the martial arts world before. High! Really high!

Although he began to admire Emperor Yan in his heart, he still had to answer. Nodding, Ye Shisan said frankly: "In fact, I was planning at the time that if Emperor Yan wanted to blame me, I would offer treasures to atone for my sins."

Ye Shisan secretly channeled a bit of his power into the demon-refining pot, and a small white bottle flew out of the pot and landed on the edge of the Shennong Cauldron: "This is it. I found that it is not here, so I thought that it should be more important to Emperor Yan than a mountain god." After a pause, he continued to introduce: "This thing is called salt. Just sprinkle a little on the food, it can make the taste of the food improve to a higher level. Lord Yandi may wish to give it a try."

Yan Emperor smiled bitterly and said: "Do you think that just because of this thing that satisfies your appetite, you are more important to me than a mountain god? Do you think I am so greedy?" He said it in a half-joking way, giving people an inexplicable sense of intimacy.

Seeing that Emperor Yan was so easy-going, Ye Shisan also relaxed a lot and said casually: "Why don't you try the effect first, and then tell me."

Emperor Yan nodded and said, "Okay, these potions are carefully researched by me and will do great good to your body. Just soak them in the Shennong Ding for a while, and I'll try your... er... salt." After saying that, he turned around and walked out the door.

Shennong Ding! Ye Shisan didn't realize for a moment that the place where he was bathing was actually Shennong Ding, one of the nine great artifacts! It seemed that Emperor Yan was really good to him, using his most proud treasure to help him heal his wounds. Although he knew that it was because of Jingwei, he also silently remembered Emperor Yan's kindness in his heart.

Not long after, Emperor Yan came in again, and naturally praised the effect of salt. After talking for a while, he changed the subject and said, "It's a good thing, but I still don't think it's more important than the mountain god." After a pause, he couldn't help but say, "But this salt is really magical. It can make ordinary vegetables taste like seafood." Ye Shisan was sweating after hearing this, thinking that the taste of seafood he said might be salty.

Ye Shisan knew this long ago, and just said calmly: "What about the method of making salt?" He paused, and without waiting for Emperor Yan to ask, he took the initiative to explain the basic principle of drying salt, and then said: "It's probably like this. As for how to mass produce it, you have to figure it out yourself."

After listening to this, Emperor Yan pondered for a while, and then suddenly said in surprise: "If salt spreads, it will definitely become an indispensable item for people. The value of this production method is simply immeasurable!"

Seeing Emperor Yan's surprised expression, Ye Shisan smiled and said, "Then can this junior be considered to have redeemed himself?"

When asked by Ye Shisan, Emperor Yan recovered from his surprise and said, "You are innocent in the first place. I was just surprised that you were so confident. I didn't expect that you would give our Shennong tribe such a big benefit all at once. In this case, I really don't know what benefit I should give you."

Ye Shisan chuckled and suggested, "Actually, Lord Yan Di saved my life, and I am already very grateful to him. But I do have a request. I found that the characters I used before are very different from those I use now. I wonder if you can help me arrange some study." On the other hand, he was also a little worried about Qingluan and Huofeng, but due to his current physical condition, he could only put their affairs aside. Also, he just remembered that when he made an appointment with them, he only said that we would meet in Shangdang, but did not say where specifically. He would slowly look for them after his injury healed.

Emperor Yan nodded and said, "Of course, that's no problem, but I'm planning to give you something. As for now, I'll help you heal your arm first. It may be a little painful, so bear with it."

Ye Shisan was stunned and asked, "Hasn't he been healing here all the time?"

Yan Di explained, "This is to strengthen your tendons and bones and improve the flexibility of every inch of your muscles. It is also the early stage of treatment. Doing this will prevent any sequelae in the future. Not only that, your body's healing ability will be so strong that you won't believe it, and your progress in practicing will be much faster. Let's treat your injuries first, and bear with it."

Then the room was filled with Ye Shisan's screams: "Oh... NO!... No!... It hurts!..."

Yan Di: "I have no objection to you calling out, but you don't have to make such noises! My sexual orientation is very normal, act like a man, okay?"

Ye Shisan: "Oh my God!... Oh my Earth!... Oh my God!... My hands!..."

Half an hour later, Ye Shisan put on his clothes, looked at his new skin, and bowed respectfully to Emperor Yan: "Thank you for saving my life, I feel full of energy now." Ye Shisan was blessed this time. You know, not everyone has the opportunity to soak in the Shennong Ding, and it is the medicinal soup carefully prepared by Emperor Yan. Although his skills have not improved significantly, he has laid a good physical foundation, which will have countless benefits for his future practice.

Emperor Yan smiled with satisfaction and said, "Of course, I prepared the herbs. Need I tell you?" Then he took out a gray bamboo slip from his ring and handed it to Ye Shisan, saying, "This is my Shennong Herbal Classic, which records my research on medicine. I believe it should be helpful to you. But you must remember that the most important thing in cultivation is to cultivate your mind. Relying on external forces is inferior after all. Don't rely on drugs to forcibly increase your strength. That is the most unacceptable thing. The Yijin Xisui Decoction I made for you is an exception."

Ye Shisan took the Shennong Herbal Classic with great care, nodded vigorously and said, "Don't worry, Emperor Yan, I will definitely make good use of it."

Emperor Yan smiled kindly, "I feel relieved when you say that. It looks like you are hungry too, and it's almost time for dinner. Jingwei heard that you will wake up today, so she cooked a lot of seafood herself. Go and have a taste. Also, don't call me Emperor Yan all the time in the future, it's too formal. If you don't mind, just call me Uncle Yu."

Being familiar with Emperor Yan, he would naturally have a powerful backer in the future. Ye Shisan immediately said happily: "Thank you, Uncle Yu!"
