Chapter 495: Puzzle
"Young Master, what should I do?" Man'er asked me.
I said to Man'er: "Don't worry, look for it again, if you really can't get together the Dan Fang for refining the Five Pindan, then let's see if we can make up the Dan Fang for the Six Pindan!" We can only fight for it!! Let's see if we can reluctantly refine one or two Six-Pindan! ”
I comforted Man'er and told her not to worry, but my own heart was very anxious.
Because I only have a six-pin pill recipe that the wine lady gave me. We shouldn't have such good luck to use these medicinal materials in front of us to combine them into the Liupin Dan Fang in our hands.
This second match is time-limited and only has one hour to spare. If we don't refine any pills within this time, it will be ironclad.
As time went by, Man'er and I were both sweating profusely. Because we haven't been able to combine a complete Dan recipe with these medicinal materials in front of us until now.
"Young Master, could it be that they deliberately let every medicinal material that may constitute a pill be given, deliberately embarrassing us like this?" Man'er asked me.
It's clear that this second match should be like that. They wanted to see how we could refine a furnace of the highest possible grade of elixir under such limited conditions.
"That's how it should be! An hour is two hours, and now that an hour has passed, let's take a little more time to sort out these herbs. Now let's start with the combination of Yipindan, and select all the Dan recipes that can be refined first!! I said to Man'er.
Yipindan, there are not many medicinal materials needed, and under so many medicinal materials, we quickly combined a lot of kinds.
But when we were ready to combine the second pindan, we were in the same situation as before, always lacking one or two herbs.
"Young Master, they don't want us all to refine a pindan, right? The highest possible requirement for that grade is just a smoke bomb. Because in such a competitive environment, no one would be willing to refine Yipindan! Man'er said to me.
Hearing Man'er's words, I nodded.
It is indeed possible.
The lower the level of the elixir, the more clearly the quality of the elixir can be judged.
Yipindan, if the level of the alchemist is high enough, can improve its quality without limit.
This reminds me of a story I heard when I was in China. It's a competition between chefs. And the content of their competition is fried tomatoes and eggs.
Because the simpler the dish, the more it shows the chef's skill.
Or this second competition is to hope that we all refine a pinpindan, and then evaluate the level through the refined pinpindan.
And a whole bunch of other medicinal herbs are just distractions.
They hope that we can find the most accurate way to carry out alchemy under such restrictions as soon as possible.
"Young Master, then let's start alchemy! We can refine a few more furnaces of Yipindan, and then choose the highest quality as the answer to turn in! Man'er said to me.
"Hmm!" I answered.
As Man'er began to prepare the herbs, I was groaning.
Because I always felt that something was wrong. But what is wrong with me can't be said.
"What's the matter, young master!" After Man'er prepared the medicinal herbs, seeing that I was still stunned, he asked me.
"Hey, I don't know, I just feel like there's something wrong! I feel like if we use Yipindan as our answer, we will be eliminated! I said to Man'er.
When Man'er heard my words, she also groaned and thought about it.
"Man'er, don't worry, let's think about it first! At our current level, if we refine one furnace and one pindan, we can do it in a few minutes. So, there's no need for us to be in such a hurry, give yourself a little more time to think about it! I said to Man'er.
"Hmm!" Man'er answered, wiped the beads of sweat from her forehead and sat down.
I adjusted my breathing, then sat down and thought about the many medicinal herbs in front of me.
I believe that the six-pinned, seventh-pinned, and the seaflower fruitless melon and salted whale soul grass used to refine the eight-pinned pill should all be nonsense. Others can't form a high-grade Dan Fang and a Sea Soul Dan Fang.
If they really want to test our judgment, this question is a bit simpler. No matter what grade of alchemist it is, as long as you clean up these medicinal materials, you will soon find out the clues. Then, as I thought just now, they think that they want to evaluate us to refine a pindan.
This kind of assessment method is really not very clever. It should not be used in such a competition.
So, I think there must be some other traps in this that we haven't found.
But what is their main purpose? What exactly do they want us to do?
I hesitated.
Calm down! Be sure to be calm.
I know that at this time, I must be calm. Only when you calm down can you think clearly.
I took a few deep breaths and tried to control my mood swings.
Wait until I think about it! They told us very clearly. The final assessment criterion for the competition is that it is very likely that the high-grade elixir will be refined.
And in the scoring criteria, Dan medicine grade accounts for the largest proportion, standing four out of ten. This point is enough to prove that the grade of the pill is very, very important.
However, these medicinal materials in front of us can only allow us to refine a pint of Dan, and in this way, the requirements for the medicinal grade of Dan are limited to death.
"Young Master, could it be that they want us to take out the missing medicinal materials to supplement them?" Man'er said to me.
Hearing Man'er's words, a glimmer of light flashed through my mind. When I tried to grasp this sudden flash of inspiration, I found that it had long since disappeared without a trace.
"Man'er, what did you just say? You repeat!! I said to Man'er urgently.
"Huh? I...... I ......" Man'er looked a little dazed when she saw me.
"What you just said, you say it again!! I just had some inspiration, but I didn't catch it! I said anxiously to Man'er.
When Man'er heard this, she answered and said to me, "Oh, I'm ...... I asked if they wanted us to take out the missing herbs to supplement it. And then do alchemy?? ”
"I'll try!" I immediately communicated with my storage ring. But as with the first game, I couldn't get anything out of the ring at all.
Man'er tried it herself, she shook her head and said, "No! You still can't use the storage ring here, our storage ring is sealed!! ”
I nodded, trying to communicate with my Chaos Orb.
Hey, my Chaos Orb is ready to use! This space didn't seal my Chaos Orb.
"Man'er, my little world can be used!" I said to Man'er in surprise.
When Man'er heard my words, she was also pleasantly surprised: "Young Master, since your small world can be used, then I'll go in, and then take out the missing pill from the storage ring there!" ”
"Well, that should work. My little world is an independent heaven and earth rule, and there should be no sealing of our storage rings! I said to Man'er.
"Hmmm! Then send me in now! Man'er said to me urgently.
"Good!!" I reached for Man'er, and prepared to send her to my chaotic world.
But just as I was about to send Man'er into my chaotic world, a thought popped into my head.
Right? It is impossible for everyone who came to participate in the competition this time to have the True Spirit World. Not to mention the Chaos World, I believe that none of these people will have anyone but me.
I may be able to solve the problem in front of me by entering the world of chaos. And what about others?
The examiner just now made it very clear that the top 40 were taken.
"What's wrong? Master! You're going to send me in!? We've been wasting our time! Seeing that I was stunned and didn't send her into the chaotic world, Man'er urged me.
"Nope! Man'er, this is not the right way to solve the problem! If you think about it, I'm about to do this, but what about the others? I said to Man'er.
When Man'er heard my words, she reacted immediately. She nodded and said, "Yes! And what are we saying and doing here? If you send me into your little world at this time, you will be seen immediately. In that case, maybe they will say that we are cheating, and even if we refine a high-grade elixir, we will be disqualified!! ”
"Hmmm! Well! You're right! I nodded to Man'er.
It's really possible, because all the images of the competition here are transmitted to the outside in real time. Not only the judges, but also so many onlookers clearly saw our every move.
Man'er is right, even if we refine a relatively high-grade elixir, or the judges will directly give us a cheating judgment, and then we will directly eliminate it.
So, I immediately rejected the plan. We have to think about other ways out.
"Man'er, let's think about it again, it's really not good, let's refine one furnace and one pindan!" I said to Man'er.
Man'er answered. He looked at the pile of medicinal herbs in front of him again and thought about it.
"The higher the grade of the elixir, the better!"
"But if you want to refine a high-grade elixir, you lack the necessary one or two flavored medicinal materials!"
"You can't use the storage ring to replenish the missing herbs by yourself!"
"What should I do?"
I muttered to myself.
"What to do?" I slowly combed through my head.
Suddenly, a thought flashed through my mind, and I slapped my thigh and shouted, "There you have it!" Man'er, I probably know what to do!! ”
