Chapter 64: The First Round

A simple ring was set up in the widest area of the southwest corner of Los Angeles.

The ring was huge, with a stove set up every four or five people on it.

The furnace was half a man high, and it was the most common furnace suitable for alchemists.

The stove is arranged horizontally in two rows of ten, each row of ten, which means that there are twenty people at the same time.

The southwest corner, which is usually the most deserted, is lively today, and it is full of people early.

There are those who can refine medicine, and there are those who don't understand.

There are several circles around this ring, and I don't care if people will or not, the picture is just a lively one.

The conditions for participating in this alchemy competition are very demanding, so there are not many people who have the opportunity to participate.

Because of the city lord, Mu Xiwan got a quota.

But even if you get a place through the back door, there are less than 20 contestants today.

Therefore, Elder Qian of the Poison Gate thought of a trick, that is, to build a small ring next to it, select layers of selection, and select four players to qualify for the competition.

Due to the temporary playoff, Mu Xi also got most of the leisure time in the evening.

This is also a rare opportunity, there are many famous doctors in the rivers and lakes will also come to participate in the competition, but there is time to learn, if you can get some inspiration, it would be great.

There are many players who participate in the extra round, but the screening is very fast, and the first round is mainly Xiangxiang.

As a medicine refiner, you must know how to use the harsh environment around you and use the available resources to enter medicine, and the most important thing is to recognize the fragrance and recognize the usefulness and function of this thing.

Although this level is simple to hear, it is actually very difficult to pass, and after a round, more than half of the players on the field are left. By the second round, there were only about two dozen people left.

Three levels, the most surprising three people are Mu Xiwan, one is a child who is no more than nine years old, and the results of the three levels are always the top three.

The second person is a handsome scholar, the scholar's grades are the tail of the crane every time, but he can always be shortlisted by chance, and the third person is a white-haired old man, the old man is blind in both eyes, but his strength is very strong.

With the production of four gasai players, there are finally twenty people.

Twenty people drew lots in turn to determine the order, and Mu Xiwan coincidentally drew a ninth, the penultimate position in the first row, which was not bad.

After everyone stood in turn, one person came to the stage to report the order.

"Our medicine has a long history, from ancient times to this time, hundreds of years, there have been a lot of ancient herbs, our first level, is to see how many ancient herbs can be identified by the experts. Those who can accurately report their names will receive one point, those who can accurately report the growth environment will receive one point, and those who can accurately state the efficacy will receive one point. ”

After the man finished speaking, twenty young men walked up, dressed in uniform clothes, they should all be from the poison gate, and blindfolded each of them in turn, and only after making sure that they could not see before leaving.

When the gong sounded, a person's voice was heard: "The first round of the competition begins, please know the incense." The person who writes the most answers within the allotted time wins. If you already know the answer, you can identify the next one in advance. ”

When vision is obstructed, the rest of the senses become sensitive. She heard someone walk up to her, and a faint scent slowly emerged.

Fragrant, can smell some moisture, this medicine should like yin, like moisture.

Smelling it again, I can feel a chill, but when I take a deep breath, I feel that my throat seems to be lighter.

When she tried to smell it again, the man took the herb away and smelled another aroma.

Mu Xiwan was shocked in her heart, and then she realized that the time for the same herb was also limited.

The herb of the second flavor is different from the first, the aroma is almost faint, and it is a little choking.

Mu Xiwan smelled a little cough, and his nose was very uncomfortable, so after a cough, he already knew the answer, so he covered his nose and said, "Next." ”

Because Mu Xi was young and good-looking, many people below paid attention to him, and many people sighed for a while when they saw him treat the game like this.

I heard a sound in front of me, but I didn't smell a trace of it.

Mu Xiwan heard the sound of inhaling from the audience at this time, and she was even more puzzled, and concentrated all her energy on the tip of her nose, only then did she smell a hint of nonexistent sound.

This fragrance is like a quiet orchid, which comes and goes, which makes her very puzzled. Concentrate on thinking in my head, and then I remembered that it seems to be recorded in the "Poison Book".

"Next."

……

Mu Xiwan smelled very real, until the blindfolded cloth was removed, there was still some unfinished.

She noticed that there were a lot of people around her looking this way. I couldn't help but touch my nose, and then I realized that I seemed to be a bit high-profile in the last game.

"Please write your answers on paper and wait for the decision."

Mu Xiwan wrote down the several medicinal materials on the paper in turn, the origin, and the function one by one.

This question is very tricky, some medicinal materials are very ordinary, and some ordinary people have never seen them.

Some taste smoky, while others seem to be tasteless. It's a challenge for well-read, but it's abrasive for those who can't get up or down.

After writing down the answer, the poison man standing next to him just glanced at it, and then counted from left to right.

"Eight points."

"Twelve."

"Eighteen points."

"Seven points."

“……”

"Twenty-seven points."

"Silk."

When it was late for Mu Xi, I could hear a sigh from the audience.

Even the Dumen Elder on the stage stood up at this time and asked, "How many points?" ”

"Twenty-seven points."

The man who reported the score was firm again, and then the elder motioned to continue, and at the same time the man took Mu Xiwan's test paper.

After the elder read it, he hung her test paper with the red cloth covered on the side, one left and one right, and when the red cloth was removed, everyone was surprised to find that except for the first word of the tenth herb, it was not written in its entirety.

"Do you know what this last herb is?" The elder asked.

Mu Xiwan's face was slightly red at this time, and she said: "Pigweed, it's just that the name is a little difficult to write, I can't remember." ”

These words made people cry and laugh a little, but they also began to be afraid of Mu Xiwan's strength.

Mu Xiwan found that many people did start to look at it, especially the woman in the eighteenth, who seemed to have hatred in her eyes.

It's just that the woman was born very cute, even if she has hateful eyes, she looks like a coquette.

After the first game, it was a break, and she noticed that the eighteen-point woman walked to the stage, and Elder Qian seemed to be saying something in her ear.

Thoroughfare?

"That's Elder Qian's daughter, Qian Jingyun."

A man beside her kindly reminded her, but Mu Xiwan just nodded, but didn't say anything.

People have a backstage, since it's their own competition, it's fun to participate, and we can't say anything that isn't.
