Chapter 108: The Sima Family's Dilemma
Sima Youyue began to practice alchemy frantically, she was alchemy in the soul bead during the day, and came out at night to restore her spiritual power, and by the way, she replenished some energy to the Golden Snake Fruit Tree.
In order to help the Sima family, most of Sima Youyue's alchemy pills were usually used to refine pills. What kind of hemostatic pill, the qi is dispersed, these are the usual pills prepared by mercenaries and spirit masters, and the Nalan family can be favored by the mercenaries because the price is lower than that of the Sima family.
Speaking of this, the Sima family is also helpless. Because there were no alchemists, their shops originally did not sell pills, but this affected the performance of other aspects. In desperation, they went to other stores to wholesale the pills, and the price could be slightly lower, and then sold them at the normal price.
It is precisely because of this that the price of their family's pills cannot be too low, and when they see the Nalan family suppressing them with this, they can only stare dryly.
The Sima family does not have an alchemist, this is the most fundamental factor of all the crux, Sima Lie also thought about recruiting an alchemist, but the appearance of those guys with their nostrils facing the sky made him unsuccessful in the end.
Sima Youyue also understood that when refining all the pills, she refined more commonly used pills, and these pills were simple to refine, and the medicinal materials in the soul beads were also complete, and after a month, she had hundreds of bottles of pills in her hands.
On this day, after she baked the elixir, the magic brake appeared in front of her again.
"You can try refining the second-grade pill now." Mosha said.
"Okay?"
Sima Youyue looked at the Demon Brake, he said before that he didn't speak, and she would keep refining a grade of pills.
She listened to him all the time. Although she felt that she could refine the second-grade pill a few days ago, she still continued to refine the first-grade pill.
Mo Sha nodded and said, "Although you have been handy at refining a first-grade pill for a long time, it is still the same sentence, practice makes perfect, and practicing more first-grade pills can improve your possibility of entering a second-grade alchemist." ”
"I understand." Sima Youyue said.
The mind of the magic brake moved, and a piece of paper appeared in front of them.
"This is the prescription of the second grade of the pill found in the study. You now regain your mental power, and then memorize this pill recipe. Let's see for myself what I need to pay attention to, and then I'll tell you about it when I'm refining. ”
"Hmm." Sima Youyue picked up the Dan Fang, sat on the ground, and began to study.
Mosha's eyes flickered as he watched her concentrate on studying Danfang.
During this time, he could say that he was with her day and night, watching her personally raise the level of alchemy from a low-grade to a high-level, the success rate from sixty percent to more than ninety, and the number of pills from two or three pills in one furnace to nearly ten!
He had never seen someone so gifted and so hardworking, and he was moved by her tenacity.
He was as talented as he was back then, but before life changed, he wasn't as hard as she was.
In order not to disturb Sima Youyue's research, he left the alchemy room.
Sima Youyue originally had the ability to never forget, so after reading it, he memorized the Dan Fang. However, she didn't go to alchemy immediately, but repeatedly pondered all the pills before she got up and prepared to start.
She stood up, and the medicinal materials for refining the White Lotus Pill had already been placed on the table at some point. She smiled knowingly, closed her eyes and thought about the Dan Fang for a moment before she started refining them.
Sima Youyue was already very familiar with the refining step, so there were no major problems, and when she refined the last medicinal herb, the magic brake appeared behind her.
"The White Lotus Pill is relatively easy in the second-grade pills, and the process is simpler than the others. However, it is a little more complicated than the Yipin Pill, but at this point, the requirements for spiritual power are a higher level. ”
As he said before, spiritual power is very important for a cultivator. Whatever it is, whether it can go further or not depends on it.
"Let's get started, I'll show you."
Sima Youyue nodded, and began to put the refined medicinal herbs in turn in the order mentioned in the Danfang.
The first time, it failed without surprise. However, she was not discouraged, the difference between this pinned pill and the second-grade pill was not a star and a half, and it was normal to not be able to grasp it for the first time.
She let out a long breath, summed up the reasons for the failure just now, and picked up the medicinal herbs to refine them again.
Mosha looked at Sima Youyue with satisfaction, if it was before, he might have included her under his command, he believed that in time, she would definitely stand at the top of the world.
The first failure was when she fused, the second failure was when she was condensing the pill, and the third time, she successfully refined a White Lotus Pill, although this was as ugly as the pill she practiced when she first learned alchemy, but it also marked that she had entered the ranks of second-grade alchemists.
"Yes, you can master the requirements for refining the second grade pill in three times." The Demon Cha said, "Once you feel the difference between the second-grade alchemy and the first-grade alchemy, then it will be easy for you to refine other second-grade pills later." ”
"Hmm." Sima Youyue looked at the pill in his hand and smiled happily.
"Regain your mental strength and continue ......"
Just when Sima Youyue was retreating for alchemy, the Sima family fell into crisis again.
In the study of the General's Mansion, Sima Lie, Sima Youming, Sima Youqi and the housekeeper were all worried.
"Grandpa, those merchants are not willing to provide us with pills anymore." Sima Youming said with his elixir, "When our current elixir is sold out, those mercenaries and spirit masters will not come back to our shop, and other businesses will also be affected by this. ”
Sima Youqi slapped the table on the side and said angrily: "I said before that I would always provide us with pills, but now I actually regret it." It must be the Nalan family that has given those shops some benefits! ”
"Now is not the time to find out why." Sima Lie frowned and said, "How long can our pill last?" ”
"There should be half a month left." Sima Youming said, "Because the price of the Nalan family's pills is lower than ours, the number of people who come to our store has decreased a lot more recently than before, and the turnover of all stores has dropped by one-third to one-half. ”
"It's only been half a month?"
"Grandpa, we have to find a new shop within half a month, and let them provide us with pills." Sima Youqi said.
"Without your own alchemist, it's always a problem." Sima Lie said, "Butler, you send someone to recruit an alchemist, no matter what the other party asks, as long as it is within the tolerance of the General's Mansion, you will accept it." ”
"Yes, General." The butler bowed and withdrew.
With the relationship between the General's Mansion and those alchemists in the past, it is not easy to find an alchemist as soon as possible!
"It seems that I can only go to other places to find alchemists who have not celebrated the festival." The butler sighed and went to make arrangements.
