Xiuxian: The lady is a vegetable, I am so happy

Chapter 106 The Problem of Alchemy

Zhao Shi looked at Mu Zibai suspiciously, he was thinking about life, wondering if he heard it wrong, and asked, "Have you refined the elixir?"

Mu Zibai nodded, spread his palms, and there were five small pills lying quietly in his hands. The surface of the pills revealed a crimson charm, and there was still a lingering temperature, which had just come out of the oven.

Seeing these pills, Zhao Shi was stunned for a moment, he had only just made pills, for a while, Zhao Shi was a little puzzled, didn't Mu Zibai say that he had only made pills for a month?According to normal standards, at most a few herbs can be refined in a month.

Even some geniuses can't reach the level of alchemy in a month, and most alchemists only learn pharmacology knowledge in a month, and some alchemists don't even touch the alchemy furnace a few times a month.

Seeing Zhao Shi's puzzled look, Mu Zibai asked, "Is there any problem? Could it be that there is something wrong with the elixir I refined?"

"Let me see." Zhao Shi thought to himself, could it be that Mu Zibai made it by mistake?There must be something wrong with the elixir, so he took the elixir from Mu Zibai's hand and checked it carefully.

Just passed, the elixir was still warm, Zhao Shi squeezed his chin, thought for a while, but he couldn't see any problem with the elixir, even found that the quality of the elixir was very good, even worse than those refined by some of his disciples. better.

This is very strange, this elixir looks like it was refined by a veteran alchemist, it doesn't look like it was refined by a novice alchemist, this level is not a mistake.

Asked: "This is the first time you have come into contact with this prescription?"

"En." Mu Zibai nodded, this was indeed his first time refining this pill, and the refining went very smoothly, mainly due to the fact that Mu Zibai had obtained a note from an expert in alchemy last time, which made Muzi Bai's alchemy has been greatly improved.

It's just that he's been stuck recently, he hasn't made much progress, and even stagnated, which makes Mu Zibai a little worried, and wants to quickly refine the Growth Pill, but in the end, he's either on the way to failure or fails.

Mu Zibai was still thinking, could it be that growing up pill is too difficult?Fifty thousand points shouldn't be so difficult. As for Zhao Shi's prescription, it's relatively simple. It's the first time Mu Zibai saw it, but he succeeded in forming the alchemy once, but he couldn't do it to the extreme.

"Shouldn't it, the first time you came into contact with this pill, you succeeded? How many times have you refined it?" Zhao Shi couldn't believe it, he didn't believe that Mu Zibai formed the pill for the first time, the key is, the pill The quality is quite good, not a novice level.

"It was refined twice in total. The first time it was made into pills, only three pills were condensed. This is the second time, five pills. But I feel that this should be my limit." Mu Zibai said, pointing to the pill bottle on the ground.

Zhao Shi: "."

Silent, looking at the medicinal materials, there are indeed two copies missing, could it be that Mu Zibai is really like this?But this is too bad.

Could it be that Mu Zibai is a genius in refining medicine?Holding his chin, he looked at Mu Zibai, but at first he didn't realize that he didn't smell any herbal medicine on his body, that he could be a medicine refining genius.

If Mu Zibai heard the voice in Zhao Shi's heart, he would have chuckled and said, "I'm not some kind of medicine refining wizard, I'm just an ordinary cheater." '

Zhao Shi then asked: "Did you only start to learn about pharmacology this month, or did you start to try to refine medicine this month?"

"I have been exposed to pharmacological knowledge for about two months, and only this month I tried to refine elixir." Mu Zibai thought for a while and said, specifically from Shennong Pharmacopoeia, Shennong Pharmacopoeia gave Mu Zibai a lot of pharmacological knowledge, Moreover, the exercises of Shennong Pharmacopoeia have an affinity for plants and trees, so it is very convenient to learn.

Zhao Shi took a deep breath, feeling a little uneasy in his heart, and said, "So, your level of refining medicine is very good. If you encounter any problems, please tell me."

At this moment, Zhao Shi also knew that Mu Zibai was not a problem with the foundation of refining medicine. He probably encountered some kind of bottleneck in refining medicine. Zhao Shi did not regard Mu Zibai as a rookie in refining medicine anymore, and there was even a trace of blazing heat in his eyes. meaning.

Muzibai thought for a while, and told all the problems he encountered.

"Recently, I am trying to refine a kind of elixir. It looks quite simple, but I have been unsuccessful in refining it. It seems that I have encountered a bottleneck. Moreover, I feel that my level of refining medicine is improving very slowly. So far, there has been no improvement. What big progress."

Muzibai showed a troubled look.

Zhao Shi: "."

After hearing Muzibai's words, Zhao Shi's heart was galloping with reckless abandon, and he even wanted to slap Muzibai's troubled little face.

You call that slow progress?You call this not much progress?If it's all slow, what are they?
Zhao Shi couldn't calm down, looking at Mu Zibai, he felt a bitterness in his heart, he didn't know what to say, he licked his chapped lips, he hesitated to speak, seeing Mu Zibai's little lost look, he didn't know how to persuade him.

It's like being the bottom one in the class and seeing the No.1 in the class crying because this time the test was one point less than the last time, how can you comfort me when you make me the bottom one?It's not bad if you haven't been knifed.

"Refining medicine requires long-term accumulation of experience, day after day, year after year, and in the long run, there will be great progress." Zhao Shi thought for a while, and felt that Mu Zibai might not know much about refining medicine. , and Mu Zibai's span is too large, so it can't be too fast, if the foundation is not stable, there will be big problems on the road of refining medicine in the future.

"Okay." Muzibai exhaled, take your time.

Zhao Shi stroked his beard and said, "What kind of elixir are you refining recently? Show me the elixir formula, and you can demonstrate it to me again."

"it is good."

Mu Zibai didn't shy away either, he wrote down the formula of the Growth Pill, and handed it to Zhao Shi. Zhao Shi glanced at it and fell into doubt. After a while, he asked, "What kind of pill is this? Why have I never seen?"

"This is the pill formula I saw in the ancient method, and I wanted to try to practice it, but it has not been successful." Mu Zibai said.

"It's no wonder that the pill formula in the ancient method is a bit special, and it may require some special tricks, and no one has touched it before, so I can't give you much advice." Zhao Shi continued to think for a while, looking at the above He said: "From the perspective of the above medicinal materials, this elixir should be at the middle and lower level. For you, it is indeed a bit difficult. Where have you reached?"

"It's the last step, and it's about to form alchemy, but every time it fails, all previous efforts are wasted." Mu Zibai said distressedly.

If there was a problem in the middle, Mu Zibai still felt that it was nothing, but every time he failed at the last critical moment, this also made Mu Zibai a little discouraged.

It seems that this medicine is messing with his mentality.

Zhao Shi frowned slightly, at the last step of forming a pill?The corner of his mouth twitched involuntarily. He can refine all the medicinal materials on it?What kind of monster is this?A natural genius for refining medicine?
"How about this, you refine it once and show me. If the level of refining medicine is not enough, just take your time. If there are other problems, I may be able to see it." Zhao Shi said.

Many alchemists like Mu Zibai who are new to alchemy will have all kinds of small problems, just correct them. Zhao Shi has taught so many people and is quite experienced in this area. can see.

Zhao Shi also wanted to see how Mu Zibai made alchemy, but he hadn't seen it just now, but wanted to see with his own eyes what his level was like.

"Okay, then I would like to thank the Taoist priest." Mu Zibai cupped his hands in thanks.

"It's a small matter. Besides, I was entrusted by someone to give you advice. You don't need to thank me. Let me have a look at alchemy." Zhao Shi said impatiently.

"En." Mu Zibai nodded.

Zhao Shi asked the medicine boy next to him to fetch the medicinal materials from the prescription.

"let's start."

"it is good."

After all, Mu Zibai began to refine alchemy, refining one after another of medicinal materials, and the process was quite smooth.

Zhao Shi stared at Mu Zibai intently, as if his eyes were locked on Mu Zibai's body. Mu Zibai's gesture changes and the process of controlling the fire were all imprinted in Zhao Shi's mind.

After a while, Zhao Shi nodded slightly, with a smile on his face, and stroked his beard. He was indeed at a certain level, whether it was alchemy tips or experience, as well as the treatment of some medicinal materials, they were all top choices, quite good.

It's just that I don't know who Mu Zibai's teacher is, who can teach such a genius in alchemy.

However, Zhao Shi soon discovered Mu Zibai's problem, and he wrote it down, and told him after Mu Zibai finished refining the pill, don't disturb him for now.

The most important thing in alchemy is to focus and not be distracted. Once distracted, the furnace may be fried.

After watching it carefully, Zhao Shi felt that there was basically no big problem. Logically speaking, Mu Zibai should be able to refine this elixir. Why did he fail to form the elixir?Could it be that there is a problem with the method of forming the alchemy?

With a hint of doubt in my heart, I continued to read.

Looking at it this way, even Zhao Shi felt that he had learned a lot. Could he still handle the refined medicinal materials in this way?The error tolerance rate of extracting medicinal materials is much higher than usual, so I silently wrote down Mu Zibai's technique in my heart.

Soon, it was the last step of forming a pill.

Not surprisingly, Mu Zibai failed, and did not succeed in forming the pill, the liquid medicine scattered into a ball, it was not in shape, and it failed.

"Master Daoist, this is the whole process of my alchemy. I don't know if the master can see the problem? I also ask the master Daoist to give me some advice." Mu Zibai humbly asked.

Zhao Shi was thoughtful, and with a wave of his hand, the liquid medicine flew to Zhao Shi's palm, he didn't ask the question first, but asked: "Who is the teacher who taught you alchemy?"

"In the beginning, I specialized in researching it myself, and no one taught me alchemy. Later, I went to consult the alchemist in the mansion and learned something."

"Study it yourself?"
