Chapter Ninety-Five: Knowing Medicine (Part II)
Zhou Wu wrote down all the names and traits of the medicinal materials that Tian Qingzhong said, smiled, and it was his turn to perform.
Zhou Wu's heart moved, the door of "storage and reading" opened, and the reading file was successful.
"Mo Lao, you come first!" Tian Qingzhong, who had a big donkey's face, said to Mo Lao with a smile.
Zhou Wu took a few steps forward, blocking in front of Mo Lao, his eyebrows raised, and he was awe-inspiring, and said, "Wait first!"
"Hmm, what's going on?" Tian Qingzhong sneered twice, looked at Zhou Wu, and said.
"Just now, Mo Lao has already agreed to this competition, and now even if he wants to regret it, it's too late, either let me compete with Mo Lao, or directly let Mo Lao admit defeat, what do you say when you stop here?"
"Repentance, what is there to regret? Just by virtue of your level of alchemy and medicine, you are also worthy of making Mo Lao regret?" Zhou Wu sneered twice and said.
"What kind of thing are you? A kid who doesn't have any hair, I saw the face of the Thunder Fire Sect and Mo Lao, so I just said a few words to you, I really don't know how thick the sky is. Tian Qingzhong pointed at Zhou Wu and scolded angrily, his eyes were firmly fixed on Zhou Wu, and he wanted to tear him apart completely.
"Don't talk nonsense, don't waste time, get out of the way and let me compete with Mo Lao. ”
Zhou Wu put his hands behind his back, took two steps towards Tian Qingzhong slowly, looked at Tian Qingzhong's big face with a hint of contempt and said, "It's just you, it's not worthy of competing with Mo Lao, it's not that I'm exaggerating, even my level of alchemy and medicine is far from being comparable, do you believe it or not?"
Tian Qingzhong laughed and said, "Old man Mo, I didn't expect that you look honest at your age, but in fact, you are a ghost in your heart. Let this kid compete for you, even if you lose, you won't lose face, you are so scheming. ”
Zhou Wu directly burst out laughing and said, "Your alchemy technique can still use Mo Lao's calculations, it's really funny, that's good, I'll compete with you on behalf of Mo Lao, what do you think if Mo Lao loses if I lose?"
Mo Lao also nodded, after all, in the face of Tian Qingzhong, he was not sure of winning at all, and even if he really lost the competition with Zhou Wu instead, he would lose a lot of face.
Although this is certainly not as pleasant as directly defeating Mo Lao, it can be regarded as Mo Lao admitting defeat to him, and his goal of establishing a reputation can basically be achieved, Tian Qingzhong still agreed.
Tian Qingzhong thought for a while, and then said: "I don't know where you got your confidence, then I'll compare with you, I'm afraid you don't even know the rules of this competition at your age." Let me introduce you first, the two of us each took out five kinds of medicinal materials, and then the other party explained the names and functional traits of the medicinal materials. ”
Zhou Wu looked arrogant, standing in place and shaking his head, as if he didn't listen to Tian Qingzhong's words at all.
"You kid, don't listen to the rules? Could it be that you're here to stir up the situation?" Tian Qingzhong stomped his feet again, his face turned red with anger, and he pointed at Zhou Wu and said.
"Haha, Master Tian Dan, don't think too much, I don't listen to the rules because I don't think it's necessary. With your level of alchemy and medicine, what kind of medicinal materials can you come up with? And I see, you seem to look down on me because you think I'm young? When did this knowledge of alchemy and medicine be ranked according to age? To be honest, I also look down on you, so it's better to make it more difficult for me?"
Tian Qingzhong's eyes widened, his brows tightened, his line of work was originally a heterogeneous medicinal material taken from other continents, how much knowledge could Zhou Wu have at a young age, he seemed to have an advantage, how could this increase the difficulty?
Puzzled, he asked, "Tell me, how do you want to increase the difficulty?"
Zhou Wu smiled confidently at Tian Qingzhong, and said, "Directly take out all the five medicinal materials you prepared, as long as I have one medicinal material that says something wrong, even if you win, what do you think?"
Mo Lao, who was silent on the side, was now shocked.
Tian Qingzhong was already a famous alchemist for a long time before he went to other continents, although he was not as good as Mo Lao, but it was not to be underestimated, and this Zhou Wu who suddenly appeared was enough to surprise Mo Lao that he wanted to compete with Tian Qingzhong.
And now, Zhou Wu is going to increase the difficulty, is this completely crazy?
Identifying medicinal materials is the first step in refining elixir, but it is also an extremely important and difficult step. Many medicinal materials are similar in appearance, but their properties are very different, even Mo Lao, an alchemist who has been working for many years, does not dare to say that he knows all the medicinal materials of this continent, let alone the medicinal materials of other continents.
Originally, Mo Lao thought that this Zhou Wu had another alchemy inheritance, so he would accept the challenge for him.
After all, this world has a long history, and there are some hidden families that continue to thrive in unknown secret realms, and even many inheritances are scattered in all directions and do not know their whereabouts, and it is difficult to guarantee that there is no inheritance of alchemy that has been obtained by Zhou Wu.
If Zhou Wu knew alchemy, it was not impossible.
In addition, it is not very likely that Tian Qingzhong, the medicinal herb used in Zhou Wu's unique inheritance, knows it, so although Zhou Wu's victory may not be large, he also has a few chances.
However, Zhou Wu's sentence of "increasing the difficulty" completely disturbed Mo Lao's mind.
Even the most top-notch alchemy masters can't know all the medicinal materials, and Zhou Wu's "increasing difficulty" directly increases the difficulty of winning countless times!
If it is said that Zhou Wu's victory in the past may be like a junior high school student fighting to defeat a college student, although the possibility is indeed unlikely, there is also a glimmer of hope. Then after increasing the difficulty now, it is like a kindergarten elementary school student fighting to defeat a college student, it is simply impossible.
Mo Lao looked at Zhou Wu in shock and didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
Tian Qingzhong was also stunned when he heard this, he couldn't be clearer about the difficulty of this, his eyes looked at Zhou Wu strangely, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
Zhou Wu ignored the strange expressions of Mo Lao and Tian Qingzhong, just smiled contemptuously, and said, "What's the matter? Tian Danshi Mo is not scared? Then just admit defeat." I don't have to wait for the real competition to lose to my junior, and I can't get over it. ”
Tian Qingzhong's eyes widened, he laughed angrily, and laughed twice. He stomped his feet and said, "It's really ignorant child, then it's up to you! Originally, I wanted to save a few hands to save some face for you, but now it seems that it is not necessary." ”
"You see, just these five flavor herbs, if you identify the wrong one, then I won!"
Tian Qingzhong said loudly, and then he flipped his big hand, and five kinds of medicinal herbs floated out of his storage ring and landed on his palm, lined up in a zigzag.
