"Whew..."

Zhuang Lao closed his eyes and took a deep breath, and after calming down his turbulent emotions, he strode towards the effect tester.

Although the tester looked very new, and was operated by his own student, Shen Zhao, who had a senior cultivator's license, it was almost impossible for a detection error to occur.

But...

The retardant with a score of 178 is outrageous!

You must know that the first release of retardant was 23 years ago, and although there were improvements during this period, it was only the standard score for the sale and listing, from 100 points to 108 points.

In 23 years, the efficacy of the drug has only increased by 8%!

Even if 'retardant' is not a popular drug, during the 23-year period, as long as the student is a training major, whether it is a bachelor's, master's, or doctorate, the topic of the graduation thesis cannot bypass the 'pharmacy'.

Or, it's your own way to create a new potion that isn't available on the market.

Or, it is to stand on the shoulders of the predecessors and improve the existing medicines.

However, no matter how well they performed in their studies and lives in the past, there is no room for negotiation at this level.

Even if you are a master of cultivation, you have to come up with a qualified thesis to graduate.

If you can't write it yourself, let you write it!

Cultivate the teacher world, don't raise idlers!

In such an involution environment where 'all professional cultivators must contribute to the industry', even if it is an unpopular medicine, it will pick up and become the favorite of students in the cultivation profession when it comes to the graduation season.

However, even so, the efficacy of retardants has only increased by 8%.

And the teenager in front of him, who 'only tried to make retardant for the first time more than half an hour ago', not only threatened to improve the efficacy of the drug on the spot, but also really did it.

12.6582%！

Even Zhuang Botang, who has always had a bad memory, remembered even the four decimal places clearly this time.

That alone is enough to see how shocking this incident is to him!

Can...

It was precisely because it was so shocking that it felt like a dream and unreal.

Therefore, he needs to see the indicators on the efficiency meter with his own eyes before he can let the hanging stone in his heart fall to the ground.

"Teacher..."

Seeing Zhuang Botang striding towards him, Shen Zhao's expression couldn't help but be a little nervous.

for he is weak in heart.

Originally, the teacher asked him to test the efficacy score of the drug, which should have been operated in accordance with the standard process.

But he had selfish intentions and wanted to take this opportunity to embarrass Jiang Yifan's kid.

Not only did he turn on the voice evaluation function of the machine, but he also changed the efficacy index of the previous reference without authorization, so as to pull the score lower and make the evaluation more ruthless.

According to expectations, as long as the efficacy of the medicine is not improved, even if Zhuang Lao sees through his careful thoughts, he will basically not blame too much, at most, he will say "how old a person is, don't worry about children", and this matter will pass.

Because the efficacy of the medicine has not been improved, Zhuang Lao naturally will not be idle and have nothing to do, so he deliberately came over to take a look at the reference index of the machine.

Even...

You may not even care about the voice evaluation function.

After all, the machine is provided by the search bureau, and it is entirely possible if the voice evaluation system has been turned on in the original settings.

But who knows...

That kid actually succeeded in increasing the effect of the potion!

Now, the problem is serious...

"The 'loss on ignition' broke through to 3.025%...the 'insoluble matter content' increased by 0.63%...the 'key impurity content' decreased by 0.24%..."

Zhuang Lao's withered index finger was gently pressed and swept across the electronic screen.

But looking at it, his brows furrowed, and his neck involuntarily leaned forward: "How about this previous reference index..."

Shen Zhao, who knew that he couldn't hide the matter, lowered his head nervously, and his heart was pounding.

In the laboratory, it is taboo to change the indicators without authorization!

Even the consequences of this may have been 0.001 worse than expected.

But just such a 0.001 can make a scientific research project that hundreds of people spend years to solve miss out on success without knowing it.

"Over the years, I have taken many students, some of them are talented and some are elm-headed, but no matter what their qualifications are, as long as they are willing to work hard in the profession of cultivators, I am proud of them."

Zhuang Lao silently reached out and took off his reading glasses, took out a piece of glasses cloth from his jacket pocket, and gently wiped the lenses while seemingly inadvertently talking to himself.

As he spoke, he put back on his brightly polished reading glasses, and turned his head to look at Shen Zhao meaningfully: "Of course, I have also met a few students who have gone down the wrong path because of a thought, but fortunately, they all woke up in time in the end." In a few years, I don't think I will be able to hold up my old body and bones, and I will almost have to retire, but now, I shouldn't be so dizzy that I will see the wrong person, right? ”

"Teacher, you are still young, and you are still sharp-eyed..."

Shen Zhao, whose head was lowered even lower, replied with a slightly trembling voice.

"I hope so."

Zhuang Lao squinted his eyes slightly, and then patted Shen Zhao's back soaked in cold sweat, "Good boy, let's test that tube of 'refreshment elixir' as well." ”

After speaking, he didn't stay long, but turned around and greeted Jiang Yifan with a smile.

"Yes."

Shen Zhao, who was not expelled from the division on the spot, was busy responding, and then re-debugged the machine with his hands and feet.

After the beating just now, he is completely honest...

"Just now, because the instrument is a little old, the measurement is not very accurate."

Zhuang Lao smiled at Jiang Yifan, "Judging from various indicators, the specific improvement of the efficacy should not only be 12%, but at least more than 14%. ”

"But this device looks pretty new..."

Jiang Yifan pointed to the new efficiency tester at least eighty percent and asked suspiciously.

"People can't look good, and so are machines."

Zhuang Lao waved his hand disappreciatively, "By the way, is it convenient to tell me about your idea of 'how to improve the efficacy of the medicine'?" ”

"Thoughts..."

Jiang Yifan pondered for a while, and after organizing the language, he stopped the car when he was about to blurt out.

Although the old man did not directly ask what the last key link of the 'universal medicine introduction' was, in the production process of the universal medicine introduction, the other party was almost involved in the whole process.

Obviously, this old man also understands that asking directly and directly will easily arouse his vigilance.

That's why at this time, it will be a different way, which seems to be asking for ideas, but it is actually a disguised cliché.

This bad old man is so bad...

"The idea is very simple, add some matching herbs to the potion, won't it improve the efficacy?"

Jiang Yifan pretended to be innocent and blinked, "If there is anything special about it, it is my little personal skill in making potions, but this is a secret and I can't tell you." ”
