Bypassing the crowd, Xu Hong came to the front desk. Sitting there was an eighteen or nineteen-year-old girl with a round face and loose hair. She looked very sweet.
"Hello, I would like to ask how to purchase your aeration liquid...?"
Upon hearing the inquiry, the girl stood up and said, "Sorry, Qi-enhancing liquid, we [Yi Qi Pavilion] only sell three copies a day. Today's has been sold out. If you really want to buy it, you can wait in line!"
"Queue?" Xu Hong was stunned, "Are these people?"
There are more than a hundred people in the room, and they are all queuing up? How long will the queue last?
"Yes!"
The girl smiled and explained, "Qi-increasing liquid is of great help to practitioners. There are many people here who have been waiting for several days. If you really want to buy it, I suggest you wait here. There are about 120 people now.
About three servings a day, for 40 days, it should be your turn..."
"..."
Xu Hong was speechless.
With his lifespan and somewhat pretentious body, if he wants to wait in line, he can't live until 40 days...
So what's the point of buying this thing?
"Since it's a medicinal solution...if you know the medicinal ingredients, can you prepare it yourself?"
After hesitating for a moment, he couldn't help but ask.
"Preparation? You want to prepare it yourself? Haha... This is the funniest joke I have heard today!"
Before the girl could answer, a middle-aged man on one side couldn't help laughing.
This man was a little fat, with a big belly, and his belly swayed when he laughed, like a balloon blown by the wind.
Xu Hong frowned, "No?"
"Ahem..."
Seeing that he didn't know why, the girl rolled her eyes and couldn't help but explain, "The medicinal materials required for the liquid medicine are very simple. I have a recipe here, but what is the weight of each one, how to mix it, how to refine it, how to control the heat...
…It’s all knowledge! Only [Alchemy Masters] can do it, it’s very difficult for ordinary people to do it…”
Xu Hong was stunned: "Alchemist?"
To him, it is a new word.
The girl was very patient. Seeing that he didn't understand, she continued: "The alchemist is also called the Shouyuan Master, and the longevity master is a special profession that can refine elixirs, prepare medicinal liquids, and treat diseases and injuries. As long as you are a practitioner,
, there is no one who is not injured or troubled by longevity, and often needs their help. The elixirs and medicinal liquids refined by such people can allow cultivators to achieve breakthroughs in cultivation, thus greatly increasing longevity..."
Explained in detail.
Only then did Xu Hong understand.
Even if ordinary medicinal materials are combined together, it is difficult to exert excellent medicinal effects. However, when refined into medicinal liquids and elixirs, it is different and even more powerful.
Just like Qi-increasing liquid, the medicinal materials are very common. Under normal circumstances, if a warrior at the first level takes it, it will not be of much help, but when combined into a medicinal liquid, it will have a certain effect on a fifth-level warrior.
It is precisely because of this power of turning decay into magic that alchemists are respected.
And if you want to become one of them, the requirements are extremely strict, so it is difficult to learn, and the number is very small. There is no one in a place like Jiyuan City. The reason why Yiqi Pavilion can suddenly sell this thing is because there happens to be a real Dan
The pharmacist passed by and stayed for a few days before refining some...
"Do you still want to wait?"
After explaining, the girl looked over with a little expectancy.
I have to say that this young man is very handsome, much better looking than the fat uncle just now.
If you keep waiting here, even if you don't say anything, it's still good for your eyes.
"No..."
Xu Hong shook his head.
Waiting for more than 40 days for a potion is not as effective as going to the mountains to hunt iron-armed bears... Besides, he came out quietly. If he really wants to stay here, his father will definitely come over in person and drag him back...
"All right!"
There was a hint of disappointment in the girl's eyes.
Not knowing what she was thinking, he turned around and was about to leave when Xu Hong thought, "By the way, didn't you say you have a prescription? Can you give me one?"
"Do you really want to match yourself?"
The girl is surprised.
Xu Hong shook his head, "I just want to see what kind of medicinal materials can prepare such a popular medicinal solution..."
After a confused look, the girl finally nodded, rummaged around on the table, took out a piece of paper, and handed it over: "That's it. If you want to read it, you can copy it yourself! However, I would like to advise you in advance that medicine is not something else."
Don't mix them randomly, and don't eat them randomly. If you are not careful, someone will die..."
"Thanks for the reminder, I got it!"
Heaving a sigh of relief, Xu Hong picked up the brush and paper on the table and started copying.
Qi-increasing liquid is very effective, but it does not require many medicinal materials. There are only about twenty kinds. After copying it quickly, Xu Hong thanked him and turned to leave.
“Young people don’t know how high the sky and the earth are!”
"If you can prepare something like medicinal liquid just by reading a prescription, alchemists won't be so rare!"
"I don't understand pharmacology or the properties of medicines. I mix medicines randomly, and I don't know how many people die every year. I hope this guy can be smarter..."
Seeing him leaving, the people around started talking.
Even the girl couldn't help but shake her head.
Only when you know the alchemist can you understand the difficulty of this profession. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is the most noble profession in the entire continent.
Countless people have been studying for countless years but still can't complete it. A young boy who doesn't know anything just wants to make a recipe... What's the difference between it and dreaming?
If it was really that simple, Yiqi Pavilion would have done it himself, so it would be someone else's turn...
…
Just as the other party guessed, Xu Hong's purpose in asking for the prescription was to prepare it himself.
There are more than 20 kinds of medicinal materials, each with different properties. If you prepare them randomly, it would indeed kill someone else, but...he is different!
There is a plug-in called Changsheng Chart, which can monitor life situations in real time. It is extremely sensitive. As long as you debug it carefully, it may not be impossible to configure it.
Putting the prescription close to his body and leaving Yiqi Pavilion, Xu Hong searched for a while, and a place selling medicinal materials appeared in front of him.
It is a pharmacy. It is very spacious inside. It is no worse than the previous Yiqi Pavilion. There are also many people who come to buy medicine, no less than thirty or forty people.
After looking around, I found that the composition was quite complicated, including men and women, warriors, merchants, soldiers, and beggars.
In the face of illness and injury, no matter how powerful or humble people are, they cannot avoid it and treat them equally.
Shaking his head, Xu Hong walked towards the counter.
At this time, an old man in a white robe was standing in front of him, holding a strange-looking medicinal plant in his hand. He looked lonely and didn't know what he was thinking. A middle-aged guard beside him was asking questions at the counter.
The old man was very tall, about 1.8 meters tall, with white beard and hair. He had a calm aura about him, which made him look out of place in the noisy pharmacy.
As for the medicinal material in his hand, it was about a foot long, all dark red, with a cockscomb-like flower blooming on the top.
Before I even arrived, I heard the middle-aged guard's voice reaching my ears, "You really don't know where this medicinal plant grows?"
"Master, we really don't know, otherwise, we would definitely have told you..."
The shopkeeper in the back shook his head repeatedly.
"All right……"
The guard showed a hint of disappointment.
Xu Hong didn't want to pay attention to their conversation. He was about to go to other counters when he suddenly stopped.
On the longevity chart, a line of barrage about the old man appeared.
Toxic gas attack, lifespan: -10, -10...
