Chapter 33: The Cultivator
After dinner.
"The No. 34 seasoning configuration is complete, and the effect this time should be better than last time."
Jiang Yifan, who was sitting at the desk and tinkering with bottles and cans for a while, had a small handful of black powder in his hand.
"Huh?"
The bronze snake, who was playing with the compass with a helpless face next to the rest of the dinner, couldn't help but stiffen when he heard this.
Immediately, he turned over, and opened his mouth to swallow the remaining bronze gold on the plate.
But it was Jiang Yifan, who was quick to move, who grabbed the back of fate first.
"Hey, you're making me feel like I'm using you as a guinea pig for an experiment."
Jiang Yifan said helplessly.
The bronze serpent didn't answer, just stared at him silently.
"Isn't this also to improve your cooking experience?"
Jiang Yifan, who was stared at a little weak-hearted, smiled awkwardly, "Don't worry, this seasoning, I feel that there is a slight breakthrough compared to last time, and the taste is definitely not bad." โ
Bronze gold is no different from chewing wax for the taste of the red bronze snake family.
Even after the parallel evolution into the Bronze Snake, this has not changed, and eating Bronze Gold is still as difficult as taking medicine.
Besides, when snakes eat, they have to swallow slowly, and the disgusting taste will last for a long time.
Every time he looked at the uncomfortable appearance of the snake master when eating, Jiang Yifan was also very distressed.
So this summer, in addition to training, he is trying to mix a prop in "Demon World" - all-purpose seasoning powder.
In the game, when the player feeds the demon food he doesn't like, how much the demon can eat is a metaphysical question.
The Emperor can eat 10% each time, while the Non-Chieftain may be 0% several times in a row.
Such a game setting is an official restriction on the improvement of players' strength.
After all, some foods can not only trigger the hidden evolution chain, but also give the Wisp's strength an additional boost.
These foods that can increase strength already need krypton, and if they are not given the form of 'liver', then it is easy to increase the gap between ordinary players and kryptonite players.
However, the boy who slayed the dragon eventually became an evil dragon, and later the official released a prop called 'Universal Seasoning Powder', which can increase the rate of each meal to 100%.
This also made the strength of krypton players rise rapidly, and the game experience of ordinary players has taken a sharp turn.
Therefore, after the 'all-purpose seasoning powder' only existed for a short period of time, it was permanently withdrawn from the stage of history under the reports and protests of many ordinary players.
Although Jiang Yifan did not buy this prop during that time, every time he fed the demon spirit, an advertisement for sale would pop up.
After many times, he had a good memory, so he wrote down the relevant descriptions:
[The powder made of 9 kinds of materials, including Bodhi Sand, Jinghong Jade, Po Yuan Jing, Poison Star Bamboo, Xuanyang Zhi, Lingxiao Grass, Flying Dragon Saliva, Moon Condensation Liquid, and Sunshine Sky Dew, can greatly improve the taste of demon food. ใ
'Kiln~'
Jiang Yifan carefully shook the powder off the bronze gold, and then wiped it out with a small brush dipped in water.
Since he did not have this kind of knowledge, he made a very superficial way of mixing powder, simply grinding it into powder in different proportions, then adding a little water to a blender to mix it well, and finally waiting for it to dry.
Fortunately, the raw materials for making seasoning powder can be bought in pharmacies, that is, some of the materials are cheap and some are expensive, so it all adds up, and it also cost him tens of thousands, and the flesh hurts for a while.
But as long as it can be successfully concocted and give the snake master a good cooking experience, it will be completely worth it.
"Eat."
Jiang Yifan stretched out his hand and made a gesture of please.
But the bronze snake threw a questioning look at it.
("""): Isn't it going to be as unpalatable as it used to be?
"I feel like it's improved this time, and it definitely doesn't taste worse than before."
Jiang Yifan confidently patted his chest and promised.
The bronze snake looked at him, then at the bronze gold on the plate, and then, as if he had made some important decision, took a deep breath, opened his mouth and bit it.
In the process of its slow eating, Jiang Yifan was also waiting nervously beside it.
"How's it taste?"
After eating, Jiang Yifan asked expectantly.
"Shhhh
The bronze snake lay on the ground with a helpless expression, and pulled the pink snake letter out of its mouth.
(โขะดโฃ): No progress...
"Okay, then it seems that my wild method won't work, and I still have to let a professional 'cultivator' come to the matter of mixing potions..."
Jiang Yifan was slightly disappointed and poured the powder into a sealed bag for preservation.
Cultivator is a profession branched out from the Demon Envoy, specializing in the study of pharmacology, recuperation, diet, etc., in order to help the demon spirit grow better.
When the demon envoys encounter a situation of stagnation in their strength in the process of training demon spirits, they may have unexpected gains if they consult a professional cultivator.
Often, after examining the body of the demon spirit, a tube of medicine is prepared according to the specific situation and ordered it to be consumed, and after a period of time, it can grow sharper claws, harder scales, and even promote the growth of demon power in the body.
"But if I hand over this formula to someone else to develop it, let's not say whether the other party believes it or not, even if the research and development is successful, it will be someone else who gains fame and fortune, and it has nothing to do with me, I always feel like I have suffered a big loss..."
Jiang Yifan put the sealed bag containing the powder in a drawer in distress, "Could it be that I still have to teach myself to become a cultivator?" โ
...
...
Hongquan City, a tavern.
โ... That kid named Jiang Yifan is simply outrageous! How can there be any reason for the demon envoy to attack the demon spirit! I've been teaching students for so many years, and I've never seen anything like this! โ
Li Sen, who had just been released from the Demon Spirit Protection Association, was complaining to Shi Zhen at this time.
"He's really out of the box, and some strange ideas always pop up in his head, which is quite interesting."
Listening to Li Sen's story, Shi Zhen couldn't help but shake his head, raised his wine glass and touched it with Li Sen, and then drank it all: "Anyway, please take care of him more at school, I remember that his academic performance seems to be a little poor." โ
"The third from the bottom of the whole year, it's more than a little bit close..."
Li Sen rolled his eyes angrily, "And since you know that he has poor grades, why do you take him to practice those messy things during the summer vacation?" Wouldn't it be better to send him directly to me for tutoring? โ
"It's always right to learn more things, and I'm only going to do these things to kill and kill."
Shi Zhen spread his hands.
"It's right to learn more, but you also have to learn something useful. He is a high school student learning these things, and it is a bit useful to participate in the 'martial arts competition', if he can get a ranking, it is indeed very beneficial for the university entrance examination. โ
Li Sen shook his head helplessly, "But the problem is that the school spirit of Lingfeng Middle School now is completely different from when we were in school, the students' academic performance is very good, and they can go to a prestigious school just by relying on the college entrance examination, and no one will be willing to fight for the ranking of martial arts competitions like we did at that time."
Saying... Don't you want that kid to participate in the martial arts tournament and win a championship to make up for your regrets back then? โ
"I thought about it before, but I don't think about it now"
Shi Zhen turned the wine glass in his hand, and his tone suddenly became a little heavy, "This time I went out of Hongquan City, in fact, I went to the frontier. โ
"Frontier..."
Li Sen was stunned for a moment, and immediately reacted: "Haozi? โ
"Well, the wild demon spirit stormed the border, and that guy was seriously injured and almost martyred."
Shi Zhen nodded and sighed, "It is estimated that I will have to retire after this injury, or good, those wild demon spirits have become more and more restless in recent years, and now retirement may be regarded as a blessing in disguise."
The things I taught that kid, if you don't use it, it's naturally the best, but if the world changes one day, then my life will not be saved in vain. โ
