"Sure, I'll test you. If you can't answer, I won't forgive you." Cheng Sheng said, he then took out a green herb and asked: "What is this?"
"Tiger Ear Grass." Hua Ruge replied easily.
Cheng Sheng took out a few more seeds that looked like seeds, and said: "These are for treating intestines."
Cheng Sheng raised his eyebrows and said: "These are all ordinary medicinal ingredients that a medicine store can buy, I will rely on you to obtain a few more."
As he spoke, he took out a green grass stalk. Spirit energy swirled around it, and it was clearly different from the previous one.
"Saint Spirit Grass." Hua Ruge replied.
"You have some skill. Come again." Cheng Sheng took out a flower and a green crystal-like fruit at the same time.
Hua Ruge walked forward and pointed at the flower: "This is a Jade Net Flower, even if there's medicine it's poisonous, we'll see how it's used."
"This is a Mysterious Crystal Fruit, it cannot be consumed. It can only be used to refine pills, it has the effect of clearing meridians and raising one's cultivation." She pointed at the Profound Crystal Fruit.
After Cheng Sheng heard this, his eyes lit up, and he grabbed onto Hua Ruge's collar: "Not only do you recognize medicinal ingredients, you even know about the medicinal properties?"
"I seem to know a bit about Qing Yun Auction House Selling." Hua Ruge said.
"There are more spiritual medicines in the Qing Yun Auction House than in our sect. Kid, you are much stronger than that trash, Gallen. From now on, you will be my medicine boy." Cheng Sheng said in satisfaction.
"It's fine to be an apprentice alchemist, but Master Alchemist, can you let me go first?" Hua Ruge smiled obsequiously.
Only then did Cheng Sheng let her go, patted her shoulder and said: "You're not bad, brat. Come with me now, I want to brew another ten pots of good wine, go prepare some ingredients for me."
As he spoke, he pulled Hua Ruge out.
The Law Enforcement disciple who had knocked on the door earlier stood there, looking at a loss. However, the answer was not good, so he asked: "Master Alchemist, do we still need to bring him back?"
"Nonsense, this is my apprentice alchemist. If you want to take him away, aren't you going to give me face?" Cheng Sheng said with a displeased expression.
"I don't dare." The people from the Law Enforcement Hall shook their heads as they inwardly complained. He was the one who had told them to come and capture him.
"Thank you for your hard work, I'll treat you two to a drink another day." Hua Ruge who was dragged away laughed and said.
The two of them looked at her in annoyance, thinking to themselves, If it wasn't for you, we would have been scolded.
"Kid, you sure know how to conduct yourself." Cheng Sheng said and released her.
Hua Ruge smiled and did not speak.
Cui Hao, Xiong Yanqing and the others were watching by the side. Seeing that Cheng Sheng and the Law Enforcement Hall's disciple had gone back, Hua Ruge couldn't help but feel strange following him.
Hua Ruge winked at them, telling them to be at ease.
While the few of them were in a daze, Song Ziyang walked over and said: "You, follow me."
Seeing his unfriendly expression, Hua Ruge knew that this man was here to seek revenge.
But before she could speak, Cheng Sheng said from the side: "Junior Brother Song, since you want to take away my person, shouldn't you ask for my opinion?"
Song Ziyang wholeheartedly wanted to find trouble with Li Dahai, but he didn't notice that there was still Cheng Sheng here.
However, even if he did, he did not mind and casually said, "Oh, so it's Senior Brother Cheng. I haven't seen you for half a month. Have you advanced to become a Tier 5 pill refiner?"
Although Cheng Sheng was already in his forties, his talent in pill refining was limited, and he liked to drink alcohol, so much of his time was wasted on researching the Spirit Medicine Wine, to the extent that he was still a tier 4 pill refiner, not even comparable to the 30 year old Song Ziyang.
"What's so great about a Tier 5 pill refiner? I can't be bothered to continue talking to you." Cheng Sheng waved his hand, and said unhappily.
In truth, he didn't know what to say. At his age, if he were to lose to a junior, he naturally wouldn't have a good face.
Song Ziyang sneered, and said: "I was just joking, why would senior brother care?"
"Are you done talking? Once you're done, move out of my way. Don't block my way." Cheng Sheng frowned.
"Senior brother can naturally leave, but Li Dahai and I have a grudge, can you let me handle it?" Song Ziyang also didn't want to get entangled with Cheng Sheng, so he went straight to Hua Ruge's side.
Cheng Sheng snorted upon hearing this: "I don't care what grudge you had with him in the past. He is now my medicine boy, I won't allow you to take him away."
Hua Ruge never thought that Cheng Sheng, who seemed unreliable, would actually protect her.
"Senior Brother, how can I not look for an alchemist? Do you have to go against me for him?" Song Ziyang said with an ugly expression.
"I find him pleasing to the eye. Even if he isn't willing to trade, I won't hand him over to you. What do you think?" Cheng Sheng became angry and stared at Song Ziyang.
Song Ziyang's face was ashen. "Senior Brother, since you have said so, I can't do anything about it. It's the Pill Master Competition right now, and at that time, don't blame me for not taking care of Senior Brother's face."
"I need you to take care of me. Hai Yang, let's go." Cheng Sheng also snappily said before he circled around Song Ziyang and left.
Hua Ruge walked at the back, and laughed complacently at Song Ziyang.
There was no other way. It was just that they were popular.
Song Ziyang's fair face became even paler, he actually couldn't do anything to an outer disciple!
Cui Hao and the others who were watching at the side were secretly shocked.
"I didn't expect that Brother Hai Yang not only resolved the danger this time, but also obtained a great opportunity." Xiong Yanqing said.
Cui Hao nodded his head: "Life is unpredictable. Seems like Brother Hai is truly a lucky man."
The few of them left after some discussion. In two days' time, it would be the Alchemist Competition. They still had a lot of things to prepare.
Hua Ruge finally followed Cheng Sheng into Brahmin's inner courtyard. They walked all the way until they reached a room in the group of palaces. The row at the back of the room was where the tallest palace was located.
"What are you looking at? Tell me, how did you offend that Song fella?" Cheng Sheng said as he pushed open the door.

Only then did Hua Ruge see that the place was not for people, but pill rooms. But it was different from the usual full room, it was filled with the smell of alcohol, and those who did not know it would think that they had entered a wine cellar.
He really was an old man who loved to drink.
"I didn't offend him, and coincidentally saved Senior Sister Tang, so he came looking for trouble with me for no reason." Hua Ruge said while looking at her. She seemed very casual in front of Cheng Sheng, it had nothing to do with Cheng Sheng.
"Then this brat is suffering from extreme jealousy. Kid, why don't you just take that girl Tang Qian down. If that's the case, won't Song Ziyang be so angry that his nose is crooked?" Cheng Sheng said angrily, he was truly infuriated by Song Ziyang.
Hua Ruge had a face of helplessness. She felt that she had probably entered into a fake devil sect.
This old man was clearly a tease, but he was still someone with no sense of care.
"Don't joke around Master Alchemist, how could the other Senior Sister Tang fall for me?" She began to laugh.
"But that Song Ziyang is too infuriating, isn't he just a fifth grade pill refiner, what is there to be proud of?" Cheng Sheng snorted and said: "Forget it, I'm not brewing wine today. Go and get some ingredients for me to concoct the pill."
