Chapter 3 Shinhin
After a while, footsteps sounded, and Li Yue followed a fat, chubby old man with a smile on his face, full of dog legs.
Meng Qinglin, enshrined in Baicaoyuan, a sixth-rank bodyguard.
He has a fat face with small eyes. When he saw black spots, his small eyes widened and he said loudly: "Don't stop!"
Chu Li put down the grass stick, cupped his fists and saluted: "Old Meng."
"Xiao Chu, what are you doing!" Meng Qinglin rushed over and stared at him fiercely.
He leaned in front of a Shenandoah black spot, looked at it, smelled it again, lay down on the ground and sniffed it, and put a handful of soil in his mouth to taste it.
"It's not rust!" Meng Qinglin frowned, spitting mud.
Li Yue offered the teacup knowingly and smiled.
Meng Qinglin coughed fiercely, frowning. Rust spot is a common disease in Xuelan, and it has many deformations. At first glance, these black spots look like rust spot, which is very deceiving.
Meng Qinglin stared at Chu Li with small eyes: "Xiao Chu, you don't know how to treat rust spots?"
Chu Li said, "It's the dew worm."
"Meal dew worm?" Meng Qinglin blinked his small eyes, had a little impression, and hummed, "Are you sure?"
"Sixty percent."
"You boy, how courageous you are!" Meng Qinglin handed over the teacup and hummed, "If you really want to die, your life is over!"
Chu Li smiled and stepped forward to take the teacup.
Seeing that he was full of confidence, Meng Qinglin snorted, "How many days will it take to see results?"
"Four days are enough."
"Well, just wait and see, if you really want to die, you don't want to stay here anymore!"
Meng Qinglin flicked his sleeves, turned around and left, Li Yue followed behind with a smile, Chu Li clasped his fists, put down the teacup and continued to smear grass juice.

Chu Li stayed in Xuelan Garden day and night, and when he was seriously ill, he moved his breath. Li Yue was delivering food and drinks, and found something strange.
Xue Lan, who was drooping and in a bad state, became alive after Chu Li touched her, as if she had eaten Peiyuan Pill.
He asked Chu Li curiously, Chu Li said it was a natural ability, and asked him to keep his mouth shut and not go out and talk nonsense, Li Yue excitedly patted his chest to promise.
Although Donghuayuan is free and easy, he also has great responsibilities, and he will be punished severely if he goes wrong. So when he sees Huahua getting sick, he feels uneasy, anxious and worried, and can't sleep if he doesn't eat well.
It's all right now, Chu Li has this ability, and he can finally sleep peacefully!
Three days later, the dark spots disappeared, and Xuelan returned to crystal clear, without any trace of illness.
Li Yue asked Meng Qinglin to come over. Meng Qinglin checked the food dew insect and saw that Chu Li had succeeded, so he praised him and said that he would fight for his promotion.
In addition to gaining qualifications, there is another way for guards to advance to rank - making meritorious service.
This time, the Duke's Mansion was harmed a lot by Xue Lan. If Chu Li's method is used to cure it, it will be a great achievement, barely enough for the top grade.
————
After lunch at noon, the sun was just right, people were lazy, Chu Li was about to take a nap, when the jade chime sounded, someone entered the island, Chu Li and Li Yue rushed to the shore to watch.
Meng Qinglin got off the boat with a smile on his face, his face flushed.
Chu Li and Li Yue greeted him.
"Okay, okay!" Meng Qinglin patted Chu Li on the shoulder, and said affectionately, "Xiao Chu, thanks to you this time, our East Garden is quite proud."
Baicaoyuan is in charge of all flowers, herbs and medicinal materials in the mansion. The East Garden belongs to the third lady Xiao Qi, and the West Garden belongs to the eldest son Xiao Tieying.
"All cured?" Chu Li said with a smile.
Meng Qinglin laughed loudly: "There are three hundred snow orchids in total!"
Li Yue hurriedly said: "Old Meng, can brother Chu be promoted?"
"From today onwards, Xiao Chu, you are a ninth-rank guard, and Xiao Li, you are also honored, eighth-rank!" Meng Qinglin smiled and took out two silver notes: "Ten thousand taels belong to Xiao Chu, and one thousand taels belong to Xiao Li." , this money is a reward from our Baicaoyuan."
Chu Li took the money, clasped his fists and said with a smile, "Thank you, Mr. Meng!"
To receive such a heavy reward, Meng Qinglin must have worked hard.
"Okay, Xiao Chu, you can create a talent!" Meng Qinglin was overjoyed: "Finally defeated Gu Litong!"
Li Yue asked in surprise: "Gu Litong didn't find a cure this time? He's a genius!"
Gu Litong has been in the mansion for three years. He is an eighth-rank bodyguard. He has made great achievements twice and introduced two varieties of exotic flowers. His future is boundless.
Meng Qinglin waved his fat hand: "He has no intention of doing this."
Chu Li said: "Old Meng, I have a small request."
"explain!"
"I want to visit the medicine garden."
"Yo, you're quite ambitious, you want to enter the medicine garden?"
"Famous and curious."
"Hmm..." Meng Qinglin thought about it, and smiled, "Okay, I can only enter the Ninth Grade Medicine Garden!"
"Thank you, Mr. Meng!"
"The medicine garden is not as beautiful as imagined, let's go!"
Meng Qinglin led the two people onto the boat, he commanded the bow, and Li Yue rowed the boat, and landed on a small island after half an hour.
Four middle-aged guards stepped forward with sharp eyes like arrows. Meng Qinglin showed his badge, and the guards stepped back and let him go.
Li Yue held his nose and grimaced, as if he was about to vomit at any time.
Chu Li shook his head and laughed. The smell on this island is strong enough. There are many kinds of smells mixed together. Whether it is fragrant or not, it tortures the sense of smell.
Meng Qinglin smiled at Li Yue: "Xiao Li, after staying in the medicine garden for a long time, you will also have this smell on your body. No matter how you wash it, you can't wash it off. How about it? It smells good, haha!"
Li Yue said with a bitter face: "Then why go to the Yueyue Tower, which girl can bear this!"
Meng Qinglin laughed and said, "Do you think that the generous bonuses are given for nothing?"
The three came to a small courtyard.
Chu Li's big round mirror intelligently illuminated a mile around, and saw that small courtyards were connected, and each small courtyard was a medicine field, a kind of elixir.
There was a piece of dogtail grass planted in this small courtyard medicine field, and Chu Li recognized it as floating grass, which was regarded as the top nine elixir.
A thin middle-aged man is bending over to weed, carefully lest he touch the floating grass, the hoe is made of jasper, small and delicate.
"Old Meng!" He turned his head when he heard footsteps, and saluted with fists clasped.
Meng Qinglin waved his hand: "Xiao Jing, I'm busy with you, I'll show them around."
"New here?" Jing Zhihai asked with a smile.
Meng Qinglin said: "For meritorious service and outstanding products, as a reward, I will show them the medicine garden."
Jing Zhihai's complexion changed, and he solemnly clasped his fists together: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, two little brothers, please feel free."
It's not easy to be super-promoted. This kind of character has a bright future. If there is any good job, good position, the first choice is the bodyguard of super-promoted.
"Senior Jing, can I touch it?"
"...Of course, just be careful, they're pretty delicate."
Chu Li nodded in thanks, and carefully touched a floating grass, the pure breath poured in, and followed the small Ximai formula for a week.
It takes two years to use it to practice the little art of pulse washing!
This is a ninth-grade elixir, if it is a first-grade elixir, how quickly it will be!
The combination of elixir essence and small pulse washing formula is comparable to the sloughing fruit. The sloughing fruit can directly cut the hair and wash the marrow, complete the foundation building, and even have great benefits, but it is a legendary thing.
The essence of the elixir is like the essence of the five grains of a person. Once it dies, the essence will dissipate. The medicinal power of the elixir and the essence are two different things.
Internal strength is to transform the essence of five grains into internal force. The essence of five grains is limited, but the essence of plants and trees is infinite. If you use it instead of essence, you will surely make great progress in your own practice!
Thinking of this, he suddenly had endless hopes!
"Boy, what beautiful things did you think of?" Meng Qinglin interrupted his imagination.
Chu Li let go of his hand and smiled.
"Let's go to another place, Xiao Jing, let's do your work." Meng Qinglin waved his hand.
Jing Zhihai graciously sent them outside the door.
The three of Chu Li visited the five small courtyards, and Chu Li touched them one by one. The floating grass was the purest, and he had to hurry up and get promoted and come here to practice as soon as possible.
The three returned, Li Yue rowed, Meng Qinglin smiled at Chu Li and said, "Xiao Chu, do you want to come in?"
Chu Li nodded.
Li Yue hurriedly said: "Brother, you don't want to be in East Garden?"
"Run on both sides."
"Xiao Chu, your qualifications are too low, you have to wait a few years."
"Old Meng, there must be a way."
"There is a way, meritorious service!"
"I still hope that Mr. Meng will give me some pointers!"
"You know that Gu Litong is researching Moonlight Orchid, right?" Meng Qinglin said with a smile, "Be ahead of him and feed Moonlight Orchid. I guarantee you to enter the Ninth Grade Medicine Garden!"
"Yueguanglan..." Chu Li frowned.
The leaf shape is curved, and it emits white light at night, like a crescent moon, so it is called moonlight orchid.
It was born on Moonlight Island overseas, and once it leaves the island, its lifespan is only one month. There are no exceptions so far, but it is very popular because of its beauty.
A moonlight orchid costs at least two hundred taels of silver.
Two hundred taels of silver can buy a small house in Chongming City.
Chuli's ninth-rank bodyguard, ten taels of silver a month, is already a high salary, and he can't afford a moonlight orchid after working for a year, which shows that it is expensive.
Such an expensive moonlight orchid, I don’t know how many masters are studying it, trying to prolong its life, but unfortunately no one succeeded, Gu Litong dared to challenge it because of his pride.
"Don't dare?" Meng Qinglin stared at him with small eyes and a smile.
Li Yue kept winking at Chu Li.
Chu Li nodded: "Okay, let me try."
After Meng Qinglin was sent back, the two returned to the East Garden. Li Yue rowed a boat and complained to Chu Li: "Brother, how dare you say it, Yueguang Lan!"
Chu Li smiled against the wind and said, "Why don't you try."
"If Gu Litong knows, he will definitely have an opinion!"
Chu Li smiled.
"Alas...you are so brave..." Li Yue shook his head helplessly.
He admired Chu Li's freedom and ease, as if he didn't care about anything and could let go of everything, but this character was too easy to offend people and cause trouble.
Chu Li saw that he was worried, and said with a smile: "He doesn't dare to enter the East Garden, does he?"
"I don't dare, but he is not generous, and he will do things by hook or by crook, and he will definitely trouble you!"
"Then keep your mouth shut and do it quietly!"
"Of course I'm fine!" Li Yue hurriedly said loudly.
Chu Li shook his head disapprovingly. Li Yue had no city and couldn't keep his mouth shut.
Li Yue said loudly: "I will never say it!"
