Chapter 18: Testing the Soul's Perception (Part II)
Gu Ni held a black stone in his hand and said with a smile: "Because everyone's soul perception is different, some are strong and some are weak, and they are ethereal, but it is difficult for outsiders to detect. ”
"However, there is a miracle in heaven and earth, there is an ore called the soul stone, but it can detect a person's soul perception, as long as it is placed on the forehead, it can detect soul energy." Gu Ni deliberately paused when he said this, and when he saw that several people were looking at him with longing eyes, he proudly touched his beard, which was a little gray, before continuing.
"Ordinary fighters can only make this soul stone glow white about a little finger, but if you want to become an alchemist, you need to make at least half a fist-sized soul stone glow."
"Of course, the stronger the soul perception, the better the alchemist's talent, and the more talent, the better!"
Gu Ni handed the soul stone in his hand to Gaten and looked at Gaten with expectant eyes.
The other two were also nervous at the moment, and it was rare to be able to witness whether a genius could become an alchemist. Especially Garebi, the hands hidden under the sleeves were even more nervously clenched into fists, and the nails were deeply inserted into the palms of his hands, Garten was his clansman, if he really became an alchemist, then he would benefit the most, and the whole family would be taken to the rhythm of take-off.
Feeling the nervous gaze of others, Garten was very calm, his soul power has been strengthened twice, if this does not reach the level of an alchemist, then this profession is also extinct, and there are few people in the world who can become an alchemist, you must know that the soul perception of the predecessor is not weak, otherwise how can he be called a genius by others, his current soul power is twice that of his predecessor, how can he reach the standard!
With a natural idea, Garten directly pressed the soul stone to his forehead.
The three people who had been staring at the soul stone observed the change of the soul stone for the first time, and the string in their hearts was suddenly raised nervously, until the change of the soul stone was completely fixed, and then they put it down again, and Garebi shouted excitedly: "It's bright!" It's lit up! Almost an entire fist-sized soul stone glows white!"
Then Garebi came to his senses, and he didn't seem to be polite like this, but he still couldn't help but turn his head and ask.
"Master Guni, Kid Garten, does this have the qualifications to become an alchemist?"
"Hehe, this kid's talent for alchemy is very good, and he may go far on the road of alchemist in the future."
Gu Ni smiled and kept stroking the beard on his chin, his face was full of excitement that could not be concealed, the better the talent of the other party, the more valuable it meant that he was selling.
"Kid Garten, you put down the soul stone, yes, just put it down."
Gu Ni said softly to Garten, and his eyes were already looking at the same kind of people.
The alchemist is the most arrogant group of people on the Douqi Continent, and the ordinary cultivators are just bitter warrior guards in their eyes, and they don't care about it at all, and only when they face a strong person whose cultivation far exceeds their own, or an alchemist who is of the same kind, will they restrain the arrogance in their hearts.
Concubine Ya, who was sitting on the side, even if her mind was extremely mature, there was envy and jealousy in her heart at this moment, for her with average talent, the alchemist talent was unattainable, if she also had this kind of thing, she didn't need to come to a remote place like Utan City to prove her talent, and the Mitre family would treat her like a treasure in the imperial capital.
At this moment, even if she learned this exciting news, she still didn't have any gaffes, but she just returned the soul stone to Gu Ni with a smile on the corner of her mouth, and a feeling of frustration emerged in Concubine Ya's heart.
Is there a monster living in this little guy's body, and he actually has such determination!
Gu Ni didn't notice the somewhat gaffe Concubine Ya around him at the moment, and secretly thought in his heart, since that kid from the Galie family has the talent of an alchemist, then he should increase his chips and sell a big favor, and when the other party grows up, the value really doesn't know how many times it will multiply!
Thinking of this, Gu Ni touched the black ring on his left hand, and a somewhat old notebook appeared in his hand, Gu Ni smiled and handed the note to Gaten.
"I think you don't know how alchemists refine medicine, there is a pill suitable for beginner alchemists to try their hands, and there are some alchemy experience and experiences, you can study and try it, if you still don't understand anything, you can come to me, this is my optimistic investment for you."
Gu Ni said his purpose very bluntly at the end, and at the moment he was very sorry in his heart, if there was no old fox watching from the side, he might be able to bully this kid for not knowing enough and set a closer relationship, such as apprenticeship or something, but unfortunately with Garebi's cunning, he would definitely not let this promising kid recognize him as an old fellow as a teacher.
"Thank you, Master Guni."
Garten hesitated, but still chose to accept Gu Ni's kindness, if he missed this opportunity, then he didn't know when he would encounter such an opportunity, refining medicine is not a delicate thing that can be started by messing around.
Concubine Ya, who was sitting on the side, quickly adjusted her mentality, and at this time, seeing Gu Ni so generous, she was naturally not willing to lag behind, such a lucrative and low-risk deal is rare, Qianqian Yu lightly covered the seductive little mouth with her hand, and said in a coquettish voice.
"Hehe, little brother Garten, since Uncle Gu Ni is so optimistic about you, then Concubine Ya will also make the next bet! You've just become an alchemist, so you don't have a medicine tripod yet, right? A few days ago, I just bought a medicine tripod made of red fire copper by Master Ma Yun in the auction hall, which is quite helpful for fire control and quenching, and Concubine Ya will give you a gift when you have just become an alchemist! ”
As the party concerned, Gaten is already a little speechless, these two people are exquisite, and they boldly bet when they see that it is profitable, but Gaten has lived in Utan City for a year, but he understands that a good medicine tripod is definitely not cheap, and it will be auctioned at least more than 100,000 gold coins in the auction hall, if you add a large amount of medicinal materials consumed by the alchemy test, all of which will be paid by the family, I am afraid that all the working capital will need to be invested in it, and the family business will also be blocked.
After all, after living in the family for nothing, he had more or less feelings, so Gaten decided to accept the expensive gift of Concubine Ya.
"Then thank you, Miss Yafei." Garten thanked Concubine Ya.
Garebi next to him was already smiling like a dog's head, and he was going to bleed heavily, so he threw all his working capital into it to help Gaten buy items for alchemy, but he didn't expect to save at least half of the gold coins in the end. As for those favors, as an old fox, Garebi knows that human favors will only become a strong friendship if they come and go, and if they don't come and go, they don't borrow or pay back, and no matter how good the friendship is, it will become indifferent.
Subsequently, Garebi and Gu Ni chatted a few words, bought the three hundred medicinal materials of the Danfang for Gateng to practice, and spent a full 60,000 gold coins, like flowing water, seeing Gatten's eyelids jump, living in the Douqi Continent for a year, Galleng knows that the gold coin is much stronger than the dollar and pound sterling in the previous life, don't look at the scene in the original book where hundreds of thousands of gold coins are auctioned off a thing, I think that the gold coin is the Vietnamese dong, and twenty gold coins can make an ordinary family live in peace and stability for a year, in exchange for RMB, These 60,000 gold coins are almost equivalent to 100 million yuan!
Thinking that before he officially became a first-grade alchemist, the alchemist would basically be unable to make ends meet, and a large amount of medicinal materials would be wasted, and Gateng felt dizzy in his mind, how many gold coins was this.
It seems that the alchemy technique must be improved in the family later, otherwise where will the current self go to find such funds to supply himself wasted, Gaten thought secretly in his heart.
The efficiency of the Mitre auction house is very high, and the medicine tripod and medicinal materials were quickly sent to Gaten and them, Garebi waved his hand and put all the things into the Na Ring, and Gaten on the side of the watch had a hot eye, Na Ring This thing is really a must-have item when going out, which is also too convenient.
After saying hello to Concubine Ya, Garten followed Garebi back to the clan land.
