Chapter 276 Medicinal Material Assessment (Part 2)

Old man Ye was slightly startled and gave Qin Yi a strange look.

Alchemist Yimei and Princess Taiping on one side had a look of shock on their faces.

The question asked by Old Man Ye is actually quite difficult. Without being very familiar with "The Detailed Explanation of the Medicinal Materials", it is impossible to answer it.

"Hmph, memorizing the content by rote does not mean that you have a preliminary grasp of the "Detailed Explanation of the Great Thousand Medicinal Materials"."

Old Man Ye snorted and continued to make the questions more difficult, and began to ask questions about alchemy: "Tell me about the selection of medicinal materials for alchemy and the combination of medicinal materials."

"Everything in the world actually has its own unique attributes, and the same goes for medicinal materials. Medicinal materials with different attributes contain different medicinal essences. At the same time, there are also three relationships between attributes: mutual attraction, Repelling and neutralizing. When choosing medicinal materials, you cannot choose medicinal materials with mutually exclusive properties. You must choose medicinal materials with properties that neutralize or attract each other..."

After Qin Yi "thought" for a moment, he answered the question fluently again.

"When refining elixirs, in addition to the selection and matching of medicinal materials, another very important issue is the control of elixir fire. Please tell me about the connection between medicinal materials and elixir control."

Old Man Ye further made the problem more difficult.

Alchemist Yimei and Princess Taiping on the side both opened their mouths in surprise. The question asked by Old Man Ye was actually quite harsh, let alone disciples like Qin Yi who had just started, even those who were learning alchemy. The elixir boy who has been using it for several years may not be able to answer it.

Qin Yi frowned slightly, as if "contemplating".

Seeing his appearance, Yimei Alchemy and Princess Taiping breathed a sigh of relief. They finally stumped this boy. If he could answer this question, then he would be a monster.

Unexpectedly, Qin Yi breathed out a sigh of relief.

"For medicinal materials with strong properties, the elixir fire must be increased, so that their potency can be refined. At the same time, the refining time cannot be too long, otherwise it is easy to refine useless elixirs. For medicinal materials with mild properties, the elixir fire must not be It must not smell hot, so that its potency can be maintained, and the refining process must be prolonged as much as possible, so that its essence can be extracted as cleanly as possible. As for the heat of the Danhuo, this involves another choice. The problem with charcoal..."

Qin Yi not only answered questions fluently, but also could draw inferences from one instance to another.

Alchemist Yimei and Princess Taiping were petrified when they heard this. At this moment, any adjective on their faces could not describe the shock in their hearts.

Manager Ye was also stunned, with uncontrollable surprise and surprise in his eyes.

You must know that the question he just raised has reached a depth that only an alchemist can answer.

Qin Yi, on the other hand, was able to answer the question after only staying in the pharmacy for a few days. In other words, in theory, Qin Yi became an "alchemist" in just a few days.

"Qin Yi, you answered very well. Facts have proved that I did not make a mistake that day. You are indeed a super genius in alchemy."

Old Man Ye was extremely excited, with a strong sense of accomplishment on his face.

"Huh, guy, he's just like a ten thousand-year-old evildoer!"

Princess Taiping snorted secretly. She thought she was a genius in alchemy since she was a child, but she was easily stepped on by Qin Yi.

"Qin Yi, you have been able to get so involved in the field of alchemy in just a few days. How did you do it?"

Alchemist Yimei raised his own question.

At this moment, she even suspected that Qin Yi had begun to lie. He might have learned alchemy before.

Naturally, it was impossible for Qin Yi to tell her the secret of his left hand. He smiled lightly and said: "Maybe... I am really an alchemy genius as Senior Ye said. In short, it is not difficult for me to master those problems. .”

"Haha, boy, you finally admit that you are an alchemy genius? Very good!"

Manager Ye gave a long laugh and his heart widened.

In this way, under the hard persuasion of Manager Ye, Qin Yi began to study alchemy for fifteen days with the alchemist Yimei in this alchemy room.

Now, Qin Yi has initially mastered the theoretical knowledge of alchemy. What is missing is practical experience.

Any profession that only has theory but no practical experience will not work and will eventually become nothing but talk on paper.

This is especially true for high-level and direct tasks such as alchemy. Many theoretical knowledge is easy to master, but it is not easy to apply it in practice.

Take the control of elixir fire as an example. It is very simple in theory, but in practice, controlling elixir fire is actually a very demanding process. If it is slightly off, the elixir fire will be different, and the refined elixirs will also be very different. .

In the first few days, the alchemist Yimei just called Qin Yi and Princess Taiping to help him select medicinal materials, add charcoal to the alchemy furnace and other things.

After it was confirmed that Qin Yi indeed had an astonishing "talent" in the field of alchemy, Alchemist Yimei also looked at him with admiration and explained any questions patiently and without reservation.

After a few days, Qin Yi also accumulated a certain amount of experience in alchemy.

Now, Qin Yi is in the pharmacy during the day, learning alchemy from Master Yimei, and at night he returns to the stone house and practices hard.

He has never forgotten that Xin Tang has already issued a gauntlet to him. With his current strength, Qin Yi does not think he can defeat the outer sect disciple rankings without using the second form of "Seven Demonic Forms" Up, Xintang ranked second.

While Qin Yi was practicing and learning how to refine elixirs with the alchemist Yimei, something he didn't know happened quietly...

It was a dark and windy night, and somewhere in a rare place in the Magic Trail, two figures stood quietly in the night.

One of them was wearing a silver robe, and the other was wearing a white robe.

These two people were Xue Bichen, who ranked first in the ranking of outer disciples, and Xin Tang, who ranked second.

"Xue Bichen, I haven't seen you for many days. I didn't expect that you have broken through to the middle stage of the first realm of Zongdao."

Looking at the beautiful white figure in front of him, Xin Tang's eyes were slightly warm, but more importantly, he was shocked and confused: "You intercepted me here, do you want to compete with me?"

"Competing with you? A few months ago, you were slightly behind me. Now, do you think you are still qualified to fight with me?"

In the night, Xue Bichen only left Xin Tang with a perfect profile, and said lightly, with an invisible spiritual pressure faintly exuding from his exquisite and concave figure.

Xin Tang was stunned for a moment, and then he laughed at himself: "You are a genius, and I, Xin, feel inferior to me. In the last battle, there was only a slight gap between you and me. Later, I was still thinking, next time When we meet again, I will definitely be able to defeat you. Who would have thought that at this moment, you have left me far behind? It’s really ridiculous to think about it now. So, why are you intercepting me here now? "
