The night was free to give up, walking beside An Gusheng with snacks, and from time to time sending them to the mouth of An Gusheng's hat, like a very obedient little daughter-in-law.

An Gusheng walked and stopped, and he was still puzzled by how such a big night market didn't even have a place to sell books, but the next moment he saw a bookstore not far away. She curled her lips and smiled, and walked forward with a quicker pace.

The bookstore is very simple, dozens of bookshelves are neatly arranged, An Gusheng knocked on the table, woke up the sleepy shopkeeper, and said, "Boss, do you have any books on alchemy here?" ”

After the shopkeeper was woken up, he was still a little confused, and the next second he was dazzled by a silver ingot thrown by An Gusheng, and hurriedly said, "Yes, yes." ”

The few people who participated in the selection just after An Gusheng were all stunned, buying a book on alchemy?!

"You say, she is a person from Medicine Valley, how can she spend money to buy books here, and what tricks can the books here sell?" One of them.

Another person had a bold guess, "You say, will this person not know how to refine medicine at all, and then come to buy books and sell them now?!" ”

The third person opened his mouth wide and said, "I have to say, I really admire your similarity, you said that everyone is from the Medicine Valley, how can they not even know basic alchemy." ”

The shopkeeper rummaged through the bookshelves for a long time, and then turned his head and said, "Girl, what grade of books do you want, there are no high-end small shops." ”

An Gusheng thought for a moment and said, "Then wrap me up all the books on medicine refining in your store." ”

The shopkeeper was a little embarrassed, and said, "This ......," and then weighed the silver ingot in his hand and continued: "Girl, I'm afraid this money is not enough. ”

Ye Wuxian waved his hand directly and threw a piece of gold on the table, so startled that An Gusheng couldn't help but look sideways at him, "Are you sick?" What are you doing with so much?! I only cheated three gold bars from Yao Chun! ”

Seeing An Gusheng like this, Ye Wuxian said, "Boss, you can give me change when the time comes." ”

An Gusheng twitched, she silently put the gold into her sleeve, and then took out a silver ticket of twenty taels from her purse, and said, "Enough, the rest of the tip." ”

A few people who quietly followed up and pretended to read the book were also stunned, the one who said that An Gusheng was very likely not to refine medicine suddenly discovered some shocking secret, "You said that if this woman, as a person from the Medicine Valley, can't refine medicine, will it be big news!" ”

"Maybe she just wants to be well-read. Although the basic things are similar, there will be some new differences in each book, and it is impossible to say. ”

"You don't understand this, think about it, for so many years, there hasn't even been a person who can participate in the selection of the Medicine Valley, how can it be so easy to have an extra junior sister of the envoy for nothing!"

The three of them talked to themselves endlessly, but they didn't notice that An Gusheng and Ye Wuxian had left.

Ye Wuxian held a stack of books and said, "Madam, this is a chore. ”

An Gusheng nodded sideways, and quickly landed a fragrant kiss on Ye Wuxian's cheek, and then said, "Husband, I have wronged you." ”

Although it was through the hat, Ye Wuxian still felt the real temperature, and the face under the hat was a little red unconsciously, but fortunately there was a hat, otherwise this scene was probably laughed for a long time when An Gusheng saw it.

When the two returned to the inn again, it was already the dead of night, and Ye Wuxian put down the book and pulled An Gusheng to rest.

On the second day, early in the morning, after a simple breakfast, An Gusheng read the medical book he had just bought yesterday. I deeply feel that the alchemy of this era is really a little different from what is learned in modern times, and modern medicine is either ground into powder or made into pills or taken orally, or put into a medicine pot to decoction. But the medicine of this era actually has to be turned into pills in the medicine pod under the heating of the fire, what kind of idea can turn the fresh medicinal herbs into a ball?!

An Gusheng felt incredible, and suddenly felt that the refining of medicine at the time of pouring must be a big difficulty, the more she looked at An Gusheng's expression, the more serious it became, she thought that modern times could be so developed, and they would be able to give full play to the effectiveness of the medicine, but this was not the case.

These alchemy books not only record the process of alchemy, but also the key to alchemy, and the experience of alchemy. The most important thing is to control the temperature of alchemy. She can still understand the first two An Gusheng, but the temperature of the later refining medicine is indescribable to her. How do you feel this temperature?! Do you want her to reach out and test the temperature?!

I have to say that these are really difficult to be angusheng. She took the alchemy book and went directly to find Shui Wuxiang.

Shui Wuxiang was comfortably lying on the bed eating oranges, and when she saw An Gusheng coming in, she got up and said, "Senior sister, you're here!" ”

An Gusheng's expression was serious, he put away the alchemy book he had just read, sat directly on the stool in front of Shui Wuxiang, and said, "How does this alchemy control the temperature?!" And to use your mind to condense the herbs into pills?! ”

Shui Wuxiang noticed the alchemy book in An Gusheng's hand and said, "Oh, don't worry, these people here won't do it." They just have to make the herbs into lumps and it's good. ”

An Gusheng was a little stunned when he said this, and made it into a block?! That's not bad?!

"You know, we're all knowers you don't know how to do secrets. Alchemy requires extremely high control of thoughts, and it cannot be done without training. And the selection of the Medicine Valley held here is only to select some people with some qualifications to go to the Medicine Valley for development. It's just about cultivating the next generation of alchemists. Shui Wuxiang patiently explained.

An Gusheng suddenly realized, no wonder Yao Chun and they were not in a hurry whether she would refine medicine, it turned out that most people would not be able to refine medicine. She couldn't help but think of the three people who followed behind her when she bought the book, and these three people swore that they were not sure that they could already refine it into a block.

Thinking of An Gusheng, I couldn't help but laugh.

"Don't worry! Senior brother is very confident in you! Shui Wuxiang was just about to reach out and pat An Gusheng's shoulder, but Ye Wuxiang ruthlessly slapped him away. Only then did he say stupidly: "Stingy ghost." ”

An Gusheng came out of the room without fragrance, and soaked in the medical book all day, no one was distracted, just looking at his book intently.

The day passed quickly, rest for the night, and meet tomorrow's medicine valley selection! An Gusheng drilled into the arms of the night and fell asleep with his eyes closed.

The next day, after breakfast, several people rushed directly to the place of selection: the Medicine Valley Alchemist Guild.

In fact, the Medicine Valley Alchemist Guild has nothing to do with Medicine Valley, and if it has a little relationship, it is only because it has the word Medicine Valley in its name. In fact, the alchemist of the Alchemist Guild was like a child who had just come into contact with the world in front of the real Medicine Valley alchemist.

Since Shui Wuxiang is a messenger of the Medicine Valley, he has already entered the guild early to prepare. When An Gusheng and the others arrived, the Alchemist Guild was already overcrowded. In addition to many people who participated in the selection, there were also many royal relatives and nobles who came to see the excitement. Because there are two special characters this year, that is, the eldest prince and the princess of the Li Kingdom are going to participate in the audition of the Medicine Valley, and I heard that the eldest prince of the Li Kingdom, Li Fengyi, is extremely talented and can already refine half a pill.

An Gusheng listened to the discussion around him, and raised his eyebrows slightly, if it was true, according to Shui Wuxiang, he was indeed extremely talented.

Six people sat down in the stands and waited for the selection to officially begin.

The first person to speak was Shui Wuxiang, it was the first time in so many years that Yao Gu had sent an envoy here, obviously attaching great importance to this selection. Shui Wuxiang pushed and pushed, but he was still pushed to the stage, and he felt that this messenger had no majesty at all. In fact, there is really no majesty at all in front of An Gusheng.

"Ahem." Shui Wuxiang cleared her throat, and then said slowly: "A large part of the reason why Medicine Valley sent me to supervise this time is because my junior sister also participated in this selection......"

An Gusheng in the stands exploded in his brain, this damn water has no fragrance, and it is low-key! After feeling the gazes projected around him, An Gusheng was completely speechless.

There was a lot of water sprinkled without fragrance, and the selection was just the beginning. The representative of the Medicine Valley Alchemist Labor Union stood on the written test platform and said, "The first scene: Wangtu recognizes the medicine, please participate in the selection of the contestants to come to the stage and participate in the written test." ”

"Come on!" Su Yanyin squeezed her eyebrows at An Gusheng and was extremely excited.

An Gusheng stood up and looked at Ye Wuxian, as if waiting for his encouragement.

Ye Wuxian felt funny and said, "You have a prize for coming back." ”

An Gusheng smiled, jumped off the stands, and said that there was a prize when he came back, but he didn't say that there was a prize for good results, obviously he was extremely confident in her.

The written test table is very large, there are hundreds of people sitting neatly, there is a square table in front of each person, there are all kinds of pen, ink, paper and inkstone, there is a stack of drawings on the table, and the order of each person's drawings is different, which avoids the situation of adjacent cheating, and there is still some level.

An Gusheng walked to his square table and looked at it briefly, but the corners of his mouth twitched, the herbs on the drawings were all from the book that Yao Chun gave her, and even the page numbers had not changed...... It's a proper way to go through the back door. In fact, An Gusheng felt that it was unnecessary, but it was not necessary to explain so much, because she would have been.

Shui Wuxiang saw An Gusheng's calm expression, and then relaxed, "Actually, with my understanding of my junior sister, this is actually unnecessary." It's just that the old man of Yao Chun didn't listen to persuasion, he had to open the back door for his junior sister......"

"Report!" A crisp voice sounded from the written test table.

As soon as Shui Wuxiang was halfway through his words, he saw An Gusheng raise his little hand and look at him seriously: "Senior brother, these pictures are too simple, it is difficult to ask for a change." ”

After An Gusheng finished speaking, there was an uproar in the audience, Shui Wuxiang directly gritted his teeth and looked at An Gusheng, and said, "Not allowed!" Write your questions honestly! ”
