Chapter 117: I won’t shed tears until I see the coffin
When Lu Chen came forward, there was a pharmacist who paid some attention to Lu Chen.
After seeing Lu Chen's actions, the pharmacist's eyes suddenly shrank.
The so-called expert will know if something is there as soon as he makes a move. In the preparation of medicines, it is very important to use dispensing tools. When the pharmacist saw Lu Chen’s actions, he understood that Lu Chen was definitely not a naive child who didn’t know anything.
.This Lu Chen is a real pharmacist, otherwise, his posture of holding those tools would not be so skillful and natural.
In fact, although Lu Chen is young, the number of potions he has prepared is very astonishing. In order to meet Lu Jie's requirements and prepare the perfect quality potions, Lu Chen worked day and night, and he did not know how many doses he had prepared in succession.
It was precisely because he was so familiar with potions that he dared to say that he could prepare mind-restoring potions even with his eyes closed.
Seeing Lu Chen's movements, even Li Guangyuan's mind moved slightly.
Lu Chen chuckled at the corners of his mouth, and various spiritual herbs were extracted one after another.
As far as potions are concerned, there are only low-level potions, most of which do not require the use of internal force. When it comes to mid-level potions and high-level potions, pharmacists need to use internal force to extract the essence. Restoring potions, as top-level potions, require stronger internal force.
Pharmacists need to control their own internal forces very finely in order to successfully extract the essence.
The control of preparing potions does not need to be as terrifying as alchemy, but it still requires control.
Therefore, the general pharmacists move slowly when preparing medicines. The faster they move, the more likely they are to make mistakes.
Qiao Yan, who was not far away from Lu Chen, was very careful in his movements. Although he was very confident in preparing the mind-restoring potion, he was also afraid of accidents and did not dare to be distracted.
It’s okay to pursue speed, but if the preparation of the medicine fails, then what’s the use of being faster?
Lu Chen's speed obviously frightened the pharmacists around him.
After Lu Chen and Qiao Yan began to compete in preparing the soothing potion, more and more pharmacists gathered in the hall. By this time, there were dozens of pharmacists gathered in the hall. These
The pharmacists all heard that there was a newcomer competing with Pharmacist Qiao Yan in preparing medicines, so they came here to watch the fun.
When they saw Lu Chen's actions, their eyes went straight.
"Is this young man competing with Pharmacist Qiao Yan to prepare medicine?"
"He's really young. He doesn't even look like he's twenty years old. Is he really a pharmacist?"
"Who knows, he said he is a pharmacist, and he even competed with Pharmacist Qiao Yan in preparing mind-resting potions. If he can prepare mind-resting potions, isn't he a top pharmacist?"
"Is this preparing medicine?"
"Damn, this speed is so...even if you are preparing low-level potions, you can't do it so fast, right?"
"Can the potion prepared in this way be successful? Will it have any effect?"
Some pharmacists communicated in extremely low voices. They did not make loud noises so as not to affect Lu Chen and Qiao Yan's preparation of medicines.
Many people frowned.
Sometimes Lu Chen's movements are so fast that they can't see clearly with their eyes. You must know that at worst, they have ordinary innate cultivation. This shows how fast Lu Chen's movements are.
It’s less than the time for a cup of tea, or about half the time for a cup of tea.
"Huh!" Lu Chen paused for a moment. Then he took out a porcelain bottle and put it aside, and began to filter the medicine.
"Is this the end?"
"Is the preparation finished?"
"Are you kidding? Is he preparing a mind-restoring potion?"
Many pharmacists looked at Lu Chen in disbelief. Really, they couldn't accept it and couldn't believe that Lu Chen was preparing top-notch medicines.
After all calculations, Lu Chen spent less than a cup of tea, almost half a cup of tea. A top-notch potion prepared so quickly, let alone a pharmacist, was a second- or even third-grade elixir.
Master, you wouldn’t even dare to say that you can prepare top-notch potions in such a short time, right?
"Gurgling!"
Lu Chen put the successfully prepared potion into the porcelain bottle he took out earlier.
He slowly turned around and looked at Qiao Yan, who was still busy at the side.
At this time, Qiao Yan's attention was of course still on his own actions. He didn't know that Lu Chen's preparation of the potion had ended. However, he had a vague feeling that was not good.
His fingers trembled slightly, and the movement he was making was somewhat deformed.
"Damn it!" Qiao Yan quickly calmed down and began to make up for the mistake he just made.
If he was refining elixirs, then his previous action would be enough to cause the refining of a batch of elixirs to fail. You can be more relaxed when preparing potions. As long as you are skilled enough and can calm down instantly, you can still recover.
Lu Chen just watched like this. He didn't make any sound and waited quietly. He didn't even turn around and told Li Guangyuan that he was finished preparing the soothing potion.
It was because he didn't want Qiao Yan to find excuses such as being affected in the end.
"You do have some skills!" Lu Chen looked at Qiao Yan.
There was a slight mistake in Qiao Yan's action just now, but this person's ability is really good. If an ordinary pharmacist makes a mistake, it is likely to cause the entire subsequent dispensing process to fail. But Qiao Yan, in a very short period of time,
It turned the situation around.
However, this level of performance can only be called good for Lu Chen.
Lu Chen, with an indifferent expression, watched Qiao Yan continue to prepare the soothing potion.
At this time, Li Guangyuan nodded slightly. Regardless of whether Lu Chen's preparation of the medicine failed, Lu Chen was able to complete the preparation of the medicine without making any noise to disturb Qiao Yan's preparation. This at least shows that Lu Chen's
The mind is open-minded.
Gradually, Qiao Yan's preparation of medicine was coming to an end.
A layer of rosiness appeared on Qiao Yan's face.
He looked a little excited. However, his hands were still very steady and every movement was still impeccable.
At this time, Qiao Yan was indeed a little excited because he had good luck today.
The previous time, he prepared a high-quality mental restorative potion. This time, although he was slightly distracted midway and made a slight mistake, he later made up for the mistake, so the mental restorative potion that was about to be completed was,
Still of excellent quality.
With his current ability, he cannot guarantee that he can prepare an excellent quality potion every time. The probability of excellent quality and ordinary quality is about 50-50.
Today, he prepared two high-quality mind-restoring potions in a row, which gave him a vague feeling that his ability to prepare medicines had improved to some extent.
"Huh!" Qiao Yan exhaled a long breath and finally completed the last action, putting the prepared medicine into a black porcelain bottle.
"Wow!"
In the hall, the people watching the pharmacist made a noise.
"sharp!"
"Pharmacist Qiao Yan is just amazing. His movements are smooth and flowing, without any feeling of procrastination and lengthyness. This is a top-notch medicine to nourish the mind."
"Pharmacist Qiao Yan succeeded, but what about Lu Chen? Hey, has he also completed it?"
Among the pharmacists present, most of them focused all their attention on Qiao Yan, so they didn't know when Lu Chen finished preparing the medicine.
Now that Qiao Yan finished preparing the medicine, they discovered that Lu Chen seemed to have been standing aside for a long time, as if he had stopped moving before Qiao Yan finished preparing the medicine.
"Did this Lu Chen not start the preparation? Did he just give up?" One person frowned.
"He prepared the medicine, but he only took a cup of tea, maybe even less than a cup of tea, to complete the preparation." A pharmacist who noticed Lu Chen said with a smile.
"What?"
"Haha, what on earth is this kid doing? Preparing a special potion over a cup of tea?" A pharmacist laughed, obviously not believing it.
"Maybe it failed!" someone else said.
Listening to the chaotic sounds around him, Lu Chen didn't show much expression, but the corners of his mouth raised slightly.
Qiao Yan, on the other hand, was filled with joy. He glanced at Lu Chen, and then looked at the steward Li Guangyuan.
"Manager Li, this is the mental restorative potion I prepared. Please check it out." Qiao Yan handed the potion he had just prepared in front of Li Guangyuan with both hands.
Li Guangyuan took the black porcelain bottle over.
Among the people present, Li Guangyuan has the highest status and the most ability. He is a third-grade alchemist.
After Li Guangyuan took the porcelain bottle into his hands, all the pharmacists present looked at Li Guangyuan.
"Lu Chen, this is the medicine just prepared by pharmacist Qiao Yan. Do you have any objection?" Li Guangyuan looked at Lu Chen and asked.
"No objection!" Lu Chen nodded.
After Qiao Yan prepared the potion, he handed it directly to Li Guangyuan without cheating by secretly replacing other potions. Of course, Lu Chen had already known that Qiao Yan had successfully prepared the restorative potion, and he also knew about the potion.
, is an excellent quality mind-restoring potion.
"Then let me check." Li Guangyuan nodded lightly and opened the porcelain bottle.
He smelled the smell, then gently shook the porcelain bottle to observe the color and other characteristics of the medicine in the porcelain bottle.
"This potion prepared by Pharmacist Qiao Yan is a mind-restoring potion, no doubt!" Li Guangyuan said with a slight nod to the many pharmacists around him.
"The quality of this mind-restoring potion is of excellent quality." Li Guangyuan continued.
"Lu Chen, do you need to check this bottle of medicine?" Li Guangyuan asked Lu Chen again.
He asked because he wanted to be fair and equitable. He said it was a medicine of excellent quality. Although the other pharmacists here must believe what he said, Lu Chen did not necessarily, so he asked Lu Chen if he wanted to check it out for himself.
Lu Chen smiled.
"No need." Lu Chen shook his head slightly.
"Lu Chen, are you convinced now? Do you still dare to quibble?" Qiao Yan looked at Lu Chen proudly.
"Just now you didn't admit that you secretly learned how to prepare medicine from me, what else do you have to say now? Huh, if you don't learn well at a young age, if you do it secretly, you won't have any great achievements in the future!" Qiao Yan shouted in a low voice.
"Pharmacist Qiao Yan, it's a little too early for you to get mad now." Lu Chen sneered and said, "Just because you have prepared a high-quality mind-restoring potion, it doesn't mean that the potion I prepared is not as good as yours."
As Lu Chen said, he also stepped forward and handed the porcelain bottle in his hand to Li Guangyuan.
Li Guangyuan opened his eyes.
He thought Lu Chen would give up, but he didn't expect Lu Chen to send the potion he had just prepared in front of him. Obviously, he had no intention of admitting defeat.
"I won't shed tears until I see the coffin." Qiao Yan said with a sneer.
"Do you really think you can compare with Pharmacist Qiao Yan? Ridiculous!"
"It's really disgusting. I want to teach him a lesson."
"Forget it, lest we be accused of bullying the small!" Some pharmacists looked at Lu Chen with disgust.
