Chapter 78
Zhu Rou immediately tightened her mouth.
Sichuan Rong Division, first place...
In the past two days, there has been a lot of news about this person in the circle. There are legendary quality potions, immortal beauty, dual cultivation of medicine, and all kinds of praises are poured out on her.
Zhu Rou has been crowned a genius since she was a child, and her journey has been smooth sailing. This is the first time that someone else has robbed her of the limelight.
But this person is still a woman!
For a moment, a sense of sourness surged into her heart, and Zhu Rou glared at Cheng Lu fiercely.
Cheng Lu ignored her at all.
She has seen many people like Zhu Rou, who is somewhat capable but narrow-minded and difficult to deal with.
Zhu Rou also wanted to say a few harsh words that would be offensive to others.
At this time, a bell rang overhead, and then a voice announced the start of the game.
"This, this is where it starts?!"
Suddenly, the hall was in chaos.
The voice continued: "Each of you has a bracelet when you enter. There is a button in the center of the bracelet. Now please answer the first competition question. Please write down the types of medicinal materials you smelled when you entered.
After finishing writing, press the button and submit the answers. Only contestants with all correct answers can enter the next stage of the competition."
"Game time, fifteen minutes."
"Start now!"
Cheng Lu was secretly shocked.
It turns out that the game has already started since they entered the venue!
That burst of medicinal fragrance is the title!
She calmed down, closed her eyes, and kept thinking about the scent of the medicine she just smelled in her mind.
Dangxizi, Sumo, white sand, tea and wood fragrance...
Wait! There’s another medicinal ingredient!
Cheng Lu distinguished it carefully and quickly pressed the button on the bracelet.
A screen popped up in front of her, with options for various names of medicinal materials. She only needed to enter her answer according to the number.
On the other side of the hall is a more elegant pharmacy.
There were several people sitting inside, and Cai Lianna could only stand aside among them.
"How many people can you think of with this tricky first question?"
"Haha, I don't know about others, but the little girl I like must be fine." Ren Boqi gently stroked his beard, his face full of pride.
"Hmph, stop talking nonsense, old man Ren! The third round of competition every year is very brutal. There are several times where there is not even a championship or runner-up, and everyone is eliminated! This year's exam questions are particularly difficult. Don't embarrass yourself.
.”
"Yes, I know that your Sichuan Rong division has a genius who can make legendary quality potions. But the third round tests the pharmacist's all-round abilities. If you are not careful at all, you may be eliminated."
Ren Boqi just chuckled and said nothing.
Cai Lina lowered her eyelids.
Indeed, the first test question this year was the final question of the previous competition.
This means that the difficulty of this year's competition will be even more abnormal.
Cheng Lu's smiling face appeared in her mind - if it was her, it should be fine, right?
People in the room were still arguing.
Suddenly, the radio rang.
"Contestant No. 27, Cheng Lu, completed the first round and qualified for the second round."
Everyone was startled and stunned for a few seconds before they came to their senses.
Ren Boqi's laughter amplified: "Hahaha, look what I'm talking about? I knew it!"
Cai Lanna also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Is this the little girl you are talking about? The first round was fifteen minutes, right. How long did it take her?"
Ren Boqi blinked: "Four minutes and seven seconds."
I'm sorry this old man keeps looking at the time.
"Is this...all the answers correct?"
"Impossible! I also added something in it, how could she tell it so quickly?"
"It must have been an accident."
Cai Lianna: "There are one hundred options, and it is difficult to find thirteen of them accurately, with no more and no less. I am afraid it will be difficult to do it by accident."
Everyone was speechless.
Even more surprised than them were the other people in the hall who were playing.
"No, it's only been less than five minutes, and someone has already finished the game?"
"And it's all right!"
"Yeah, this year's test questions are so difficult. Is this a pervert? Why can I answer them so fast?"
Zhu Rou looked at that beautiful figure disappearing in the direction of the door, almost going crazy with jealousy.
Cai Yuanxiu was shocked, but quickly calmed down and continued to answer the questions.
After another two minutes, Cai Yuanxiu became the second player to advance to the next round.
Cheng Lu walked into the door.
Before he could see everything in front of him clearly, everything around him suddenly went dark.
Suddenly falling into this boundless darkness, her heartbeat instantly soared.
Because of her instinctive fear of the dark, her eyes began to blur and her hands and feet became weak.
Why is the second level a completely dark secret room...
Biting the tip of her tongue, she forced herself to calm down.
Another faint medicinal fragrance floated in the air, and this smell made Cheng Lu sober up a lot.
But the fear could not be completely eliminated, so she could only drag her body forward.
Damn it!
Cheng Lu was a little annoyed. Could he just lose the second level like this?
In the darkness of fear, a big hand held her firmly.
She was startled, but soon the familiar aura on the other person's body made her react: "Gu Ci?"
The other party didn't speak, but just led her forward.
It was getting brighter and brighter ahead, and she saw the exit.
She glanced sideways at the tall man next to her - he was wearing half a mask, which could not hide his smooth mandible and sexy neck. He glanced lightly, then reached out and scratched the tip of her nose.
"come on."
With just two words, the man disappeared before his eyes.
Cheng Lu blinked, the touch of warmth still remained on his fingertips.
She is not dreaming!
Just when she was in extreme fear, Gu Ci appeared and saved her!
Why is this man so elusive? He even imitates people wearing masks.
She looked at the three doors that appeared in front of her and calmed down again.
There is a box in front of each door, which contains the types of medicinal materials behind the door. Competitors must select medicinal materials from these three boxes and prepare prescriptions.
In the end, whose prescription will be the most outstanding will pass the second round.
Only the top fifteen are selected.
Cheng Lu wasted a lot of time in that dark passage. When she arrived, Cai Yuanxiu, Zhu Rou and others had already started to choose.
Cai Yuanxiu was surprised to see her coming: "Where have you been?"
Cheng Lu shook his head, wiped the sweat from his forehead, calmed down and walked to the box.
Inside the box are small wooden plaques with the names of various medicinal materials.
After the first round, almost half of the contestants were eliminated.
It is conceivable that the second round will not be easy.
She was still carefully selecting medicinal ingredients, but there were already people beside her who couldn't bear it.
"No, the medicinal materials in the three boxes cannot be mixed. We can only choose from one of the boxes, but... the recipe I know is missing a few medicinal materials, what should I do!"
As soon as this statement came out, it resonated with many people.
Cheng Lu narrowed his eyes and reached for one of the small wooden plaques.
Chapter completed!
