Chapter 456: Choosing Medicine
readx;??? Su Yan ran faster than when he went, and Amber and Zuo Feng also saw that something should have happened, and Zuo Feng hurriedly steered the boat to the shore on the side. Pen&Fun&Pavilion www.biquge.info(.. )
Without any stops, after coming to the shore, Su Yan flew over and landed at the bow of the boat. Amber and Zuo Feng both looked at Su Yan in confusion, and the other party seemed to be being chased by the enemy, looking very anxious.
Without waiting for the two to ask, Su Yan said directly: "I'm afraid we will have to stay here for a while, and I'm afraid we won't be able to return to the family for the time being." ”
Su Yan's words made Zuo Feng and Amber both startled, and they didn't know why Su Yan suddenly made such a decision. Su Yan gasped for a while, adjusted his breathing, and then said again: "This year's medicine selection has begun, so I said that we must stay for a few days this time." ”
The words without makeup did not solve Zuo Feng's doubts, but made Zuo Feng even more confused, but Amber showed a look of sudden realization. Amber turned her head to look at the left wind after she reacted, and her eyes had been focused on the style since she came back.
Seeing Zuo Feng's appearance, Su Yan shook his head with a wry smile and said, "I really don't know what is going on with you kid, how can you have such a superb alchemy technique, how can you not have heard of the Xuanwu Empire's selection of medicines." ”
Zuo Feng shrugged his shoulders indifferently, as if it was normal not to know, he knew very well that Su Yan would inevitably continue to explain to himself next. Sure enough, Su Yan saw Zuo Feng like this, and after glancing at him fiercely, he spoke again: "Actually, this is also a method that Da Shao also thought of at the beginning, as long as you obtain the title of medicine, then you can also have a very high status in the Xuanwu Empire, so that you have a way to get the antidote." ”
Hearing that this matter was related to the antidote, Zuo Feng immediately came to his senses, and his body unconsciously leaned forward. Zuo Feng suddenly pasted it like this, and his face turned red with embarrassment.
Su Yan moved back before continuing: "Yaozi is a kind of person with a special identity in the Xuanwu Empire, who is selected from various families and people, and is expected to enter the highest alchemy pavilion of the empire in the future. And once you become a medicine, the state will fund you to practice alchemy, in short, there are too many benefits. As long as you become a medicine, the specific benefits will naturally become clear. ”
After listening to Su Yan's speech, Zuo Feng's interest became a little stronger. If you put aside the purpose of antidote, it is the policy of the Xuanwu Empire, which can encourage many aspiring people to develop towards the aspect of medicine refining. Thinking of these, Zuo Feng couldn't help but nodded, and said casually: "The way this Xuanwu Empire cultivates talents is really good, no wonder Xuanwu's alchemy can stand on the continent for so long." ”
Amber shook her head and said, "Brother Shen may have misunderstood, this alchemy is a relatively luxurious skill no matter where it is, and it is not something that ordinary people can afford at all. You must know that the level of alchemy, although it does not completely depend on cultivation, but the level of cultivation will definitely affect the level of alchemy.
Therefore, those who are unable to practice are excluded in the first place. In addition, the improvement of alchemy requires the cooperation of countless medicinal materials and prescriptions, which is also something that ordinary small families cannot support. Although there are not too many restrictions on the number of places to participate in the Yakuko Contest every year, it is actually just a competition between those important families and city lords. ”
After listening to Amber's slightly sour speech, Zuo Feng also immediately reacted, and he knew that the alchemy of the Xuanwu Empire was famous on the mainland, but he forgot that this skill would be scarce no matter where it was, and naturally it was impossible for everyone to have the opportunity to practice.
Zuo Feng originally thought that the threshold for medicine was very low, and he was just selecting some potential people to cultivate, but it seemed that this was not the case at all.
After slowly nodding his head, Zuo Feng turned his head to look at Su Yan and said, "Uncle Kang has never mentioned to me about the selection of the medicine competition, what kind of selection is this, can you be specific." ”
After listening to Su Yan, he unconsciously set his eyes on Amber. Amber also stood up with interest, intending to avoid it like she had done without makeup before. But Zuo Feng reached out and grabbed Amber and said, "Brother Amber is not an outsider, I don't have to hide my affairs from him, just say it." ”
Su Yan looked at Zuo Feng with some surprise, and then turned her head to look at Amber who was standing on the boat awkwardly, but she didn't expect that the two of them had gotten along like brothers in a short period of contact. After a little hesitation, Su Yan nodded slowly and said, "Since you asked for it, then I don't have to hide anything." ”
Zuo Feng smiled and nodded at Amber, signaling that the other party didn't have to mind too much, but Amber had a look of gratitude in her eyes. In fact, Amber originally had some mustard in his heart, Zuo Feng and the eldest young master Kang Zhen obviously had an extremely close relationship, so he would naturally be a head shorter in front of others.
But Zuo Feng treated himself in this way, but it made Amber's heart warm, and both of them showed a smile at the same time, everything was silent. Su Yan didn't feel anything at all, but seeing the two of them behaving like this, she couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart, and her body shivered unconsciously.
After sorting out his thoughts a little, Su Yan said: "You have mentioned your matter to me, and I also said that the selection of this medicine is a great opportunity for you. But under normal circumstances, the selection of medicine should not start until more than two months later, and it should only be the registration stage at that time, I don't know why this time it was suddenly held earlier. ”
Zuo Feng didn't know anything about the Xuanwu Empire's medicine competition, and now he didn't know the situation without makeup, so he didn't interject.
Su Yan hesitated for a while, then shook his head and said, "Anyway, now that the selection of Yaozi has begun, why should we participate in it." It would be too late to wait until we got back to Kang's house to do the auditions, so we had to sign up here. ”
Zuo Feng nodded lightly, and said to Su Yan: "What kind of process is the selection of that medicine, can you tell me in detail, let me have a bottom in my heart." ”
Su Yan glared at Zuo Feng fiercely, and said: "Can't you see that I'm in a hurry now, can't I have time to talk to you about such troublesome things slowly, you must know that after sunset today, the registration for the medicine competition will end." Once your name is not reported, even with the background strength of the Kang family, you will not be able to participate. ”
Originally, Zuo Feng still had something to say, but Su Yan directly took his hand and jumped out to the shore. Zuo Feng's face was full of wry smiles, but he still walked towards the shore with the power of no makeup. But Su Yan only jumped half before he dragged a person to the ground because he was exhausted, and just when Su Yan was secretly frightened, Zuo Feng suddenly used his strength to take Su Yan and landed on the shore safely.
In particular, he stroked his crisp breasts, and his beautiful eyes drifted to the left wind without makeup. Zuo Feng trembled in his heart, hurriedly let go of the hand holding the other party, and waved his hand back at Amber as if nothing happened.
As early as when the two of them jumped away from the boat, Amber had already stood up, and when he saw Zuo Feng waving his hand to him, he said: "You two go and sign up with peace of mind, I'll wait for you at the dock in front, and we'll meet in front after registering." ”
After deciding on the meeting place, Amber pushed the boat straight away, but the left wind followed closely behind Su Yan towards the bare hill in front of him.
Along the way, he also carefully introduced Zuo Feng to the things related to medicine, including a series of competitions after registration, and finally, of course, only those with superb medicine refining skills can be selected.
This kind of competition selection medicine made Zuo Feng can't help but think of the spiral tower trial he had participated in when he was in Yancheng, and this race selection medicine had some similarities with the spiral tower trial.
There is a certain age limit for Yaozi, and only young people under the age of thirty can participate, so that some hundred-year-old monsters will be eliminated. Relatively speaking, this is a competition under fair circumstances, and the competition has nothing to do with cultivation and combat effectiveness, and it can only be done by relying on one's level of alchemy.
There is a slight similarity with Ye Lin's Spiral Tower Trial, that is, the selection of qualified talents within the empire and their training. However, the number of people who can obtain these resources is close to a small number within the Xuanwu Empire, and there are only five people who can obtain the name of Yaozi in the Yaozi competition held every three years.
After listening to Su Yan's speech, Zuo Feng also understood that the selection of this medicine was originally intended by the empire to give some people living at the bottom a chance to go straight to the top of the empire, but as time went by, the selection of this medicine gradually changed its taste.
After all, ordinary small forces and families have difficulties in cultivating an alchemist, and how can they compete with the big forces. Some super families, such as the Kang family, are able to cultivate more than a dozen alchemists in each batch.
Selecting someone with excellent potential among a dozen people is definitely much better than having only one person available in some small families. Therefore, the selection of Yaozi almost falls into the hands of a few major families and a few high-ranking members of the empire, and has little to do with those remote small families.
The biggest difference with the Spiral Tower Trial is that the selection of the medicine here will be a competition layer by layer, from the competition in each town, then to each city, and then to the main city, the county city, and finally the final competition in the empire.
This layer of competition is like a big wave sweeping sand, eliminating those alchemists with mediocre qualifications. And Zuo Feng now also knows a fact that makes him depressed, that is, according to Zao Kangzhen's original plan, he can sign up for the Kang family to directly participate in the medicine competition in Linshan County, so the selection at the bottom can be ignored.
But if there is no time to rush back to sign up, the life of the medicine selection will end today, and they can only sign up here helplessly.
Previously, because everyone had been in Xinjuncheng, because Xinjuncheng was a very special place, Xinjuncheng did not participate in any activities of the Xuanwu Empire at all, so there was no news of any competition selection, so everyone did not know about the advance of the competition selection.
If it weren't for Su Yan just in time for the lively registration ceremony in the town this time, I'm afraid they would have missed the opportunity directly this time. If it's like a book, read the home of books!
