Chapter 30: Healing Elixirs
"Squeak—"
Pushing open the old wooden door, Jiang Feng, who was wearing a cloak, stepped into the house.
The light in the room is dim, and the display cases on both sides are filled with strange crafts. Judging from the fluctuation of stardust energy, this should be the so-called alchemical product. A strangely shaped wooden sculpture attracted Jiang Feng's attention, not because of the unique style of aboriginal art, but because of the faint spiritual energy that was lodged on it.
As if hearing the sound of the door opening, the old man, who had been napping on the counter, raised his shriveled eyelids, looked at him, and yawned.
"What are you going to sell?"
Noticing that there was a person lying on his stomach on the table, Jiang Feng habitually scanned his attribute panel.
Beyond the featureless attributes, his gaze stopped at the last line.
[Abnormal state: mild mercury poisoning]
Presumably an alchemist.
Thinking so in his heart, while looking at the alchemy products on the display case, Jiang Feng asked casually.
"How do you know I'm here to sell?"
"Because you're dressed differently than the poor people who come to ask for shelter from mystical powers, and your expression tells me you're not interested in anything here. Let me guess...... Depending on your age, should you be an alchemy apprentice? Get it out and let me see your craft. The old man's throat erupted with a dry laugh.
It seems that Jiang Feng's guess is correct, this old man's profession is indeed related to alchemy.
"Alchemy apprentice?" Smiling faintly, Jiang Feng picked up a silver cross necklace from the display case, "Haven't you heard that yesterday in the port of Sevit, a wizard came. ”
The smile faded quickly, the old man's face changed, and his gaze quickly changed between Jiang Feng and Xiao Bai, and finally his gaze stayed on the long wooden staff in Jiang Feng's hand.
"Please, please forgive me for being rude."
The old man coughed dryly, his gaze lowered slightly.
If it's a wizard, age or something is a floating cloud. The old monsters in the Academy Wizard Tower are basically hundreds of years old, and if the body is elementalized, they can have an almost endless lifespan.
Ignoring the old man who had suddenly become submissive, Jiang Feng put the cross necklace back on the display case.
"I have something to sell."
"What does the wizard want to sell?" Hiding the eagerness in his heart behind his cloudy pupils, the old man asked Jiang Feng respectfully.
"When I was in retreat, I prepared some potions, which I didn't use, but they should be good things for you." took out a wooden box from the waist bag under the cloak and gently placed it on the counter, watching the cloudy pupils gradually unable to hide the eagerness in his heart, the corners of Jiang Feng's mouth under the hood gradually hooked up a smile, "Any wound, even if it is fatal, can be healed by it." ”
"Healing...... Wounds? The old man was slightly stunned, the eagerness in his eyes gradually faded, he looked at Jiang Feng with a faint smile on his face, and said cautiously, "If it's just a healing potion, it will be difficult for us to give you a satisfactory price." ”
Potions to heal wounds can be prepared even by apprentice-level herbalists.
Even if it was the work of a wizard, they couldn't have paid too much for it.
"Oh? What kind of potion is more valuable? Jiang Feng raised his eyebrows.
The old man's reaction was beyond his expectations, he had thought that this kind of life-saving thing would make these natives flock to him, but he didn't expect that he was not very interested.
"It can turn a weak slave into a brave warrior, a dying knight into the bravery of his prime, a rusty iron sword into a magic sword that sharpens iron, and an illiterate man who can touch the power of the occult...... Achieving miracles that ordinary people can't accomplish, and the potion that houses the power of witchcraft is naturally more valuable than ordinary mortals. ”
A miracle that ordinary people can't accomplish?
After listening to what the old man said, Jiang Feng pursed his lips in his heart.
Who says only witchcraft can do this?
If you can't do it, it only shows that you are stupid.
It's a shame that he's wasted so much time, and he knew you weren't interested in life-saving things, so he sold you some adrenaline.
"There are five healing potions in this wooden box, what do you think is the right price if it is replaced by UBS?" Jiang Feng asked.
"We can only pay one thousand UBS per potion, this price is already very fair, I can swear by the credibility of the Bauhinia Chamber of Commerce, it is impossible for other alchemy workshops to offer a higher price than us."
"Too little." Jiang Feng shook his head and said, "You don't understand their value at all. ”
As he spoke, Jiang Feng motioned for Xiao Bai to stretch out his arm.
A hint of surprise appeared on the old man's face when he saw the furry arm under the cloak, but he quickly returned to normal. For wizards above one star, especially wizards who specialize in summoning, it is not uncommon to drive monsters as guards to buy time for themselves to cast spells.
To his surprise, he didn't even feel the fluctuation of the magic energy element from this monster's body.
As a high-level alchemist, even though his strength is not as good as before due to his age, his sense of magic has not regressed to the point where he can't even recognize monsters.
Is it because of the cloak?
The old man guessed in his heart that it might be the cloak that was hiding the fluctuations of the demonic energy elements on the monster's body.
At this moment, the old man saw that Jiang Feng took out a dagger from his waist.
"What is this?"
"Just to show you the difference in this healing potion." As he spoke, Jiang Feng took the dagger and slashed at Xiao Bai's outstretched arm.
The knife wasn't too deep, but it cut through the blood vessels just right.
Blood flowed down the wound of his index finger, and Xiaobai still hung his arm there without changing his face.
The old man looked at Jiang Feng in surprise, not understanding what he was doing.
Ignoring the surprised gaze, Jiang Feng unhurriedly opened the wooden box, took out a test tube from it, picked off the cork, and gently dripped the jelly-thick green liquid inside on the wound on Xiaobai's right arm.
Then, a magical scene happened.
I saw that the green mucus, as if it had come to life, crawled down the edge of the wound.
The bleeding stopped in an instant.
Immediately after, the wound began to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye......
Looking at the wound that had disappeared, the old man's eyes almost bulged out.
Even a master herbalist could not have used the power of herbs to make a knife wound heal in an instant. Even the Holy Light Secret Technique used by the priests of the church, and the power of nature used by the half-elves, could not be so thorough.
If it weren't for the smell of blood that crept into his nostrils, he would have almost thought he was a wizard's illusion.
Staring at the wooden box on the table, the old man's cloudy pupils rekindled eagerly.
It is no exaggeration to say that if these five potions were taken to the Kadiran Empire on the other side of the sea, those rich nobles and wealthy knights would definitely grab their heads at auction.
After all, this is a potion that only needs one drop to make a wound heal in an instant!
Carrying such a potion on the battlefield is tantamount to bringing an extra life!
"No matter what kind of fatal injury, even if it's a puncture in the heart or a head cut off, as long as you or someone close to you reacts quickly enough, you can be fished back from the clutches of death." Putting the cork back onto the test tube, Jiang Feng looked at the old man who was short of breath and said with a smile. "Now, do you still think that the value of this potion is only worth a thousand UBS?"
