Chapter 010: Ask for the elixir
Sujia Pharmacy is located in the backyard of Su's family.
As soon as I approached the medicine shop, a medicinal fragrance mixed with the smell of various elixirs came to my face, and I inhaled it slightly, which immediately made people feel refreshed.
Suning walked into the medicine shop quickly, and as soon as he turned his head, he saw that the person guarding the medicine shop was the thirteenth uncle with the most eccentric temper in the family.
The thirteenth uncle was a rickety old man, gray-haired, and he didn't like to walk around with the people of the family, and he didn't attend the meeting held in the council hall before.
However, this person is not saying that the status of the thirteenth uncle in the family is not important, but the idea is that the thirteenth uncle is the most important one among the uncles in the family.
The reason is very simple, he has been immersed in medicine all his life, and he can be regarded as the one with the highest attainment among the few pharmacists in the Su family.
In this world, it is not easy to train a medicine man, and the cost is far better than training a martial artist.
However, the role of the pharmacist is very important, there is no need to talk about curing diseases and saving people, a good pharmacist can not only refine a variety of high-grade pills, but also prepare various prescriptions by himself.
In this world where elixir formulas have always been top secret, the value of high-grade elixir formulas is second only to those 'treasure body' cultivation techniques.
Whether a family can continue to prosper and continue to nurture talents, pharmacists play a decisive role.
After all, in this world, those martial artists who were born with a high-level physique are very few after all.
And most martial artists with mediocre physique, if they want to make achievements in martial arts practice, they must have all kinds of pills to continuously stimulate their potential.
Although the thirteenth uncle does not often participate in the decision-making of the family, his status is much higher than that of other uncles, and his status in the family is second only to the head of the family.
Even the third uncle, the fifth uncle, and the sixth uncle, who have always been domineering, have to lower their voices when they see the thirteenth uncle.
No way, who made them have to ask Uncle Thirteen for medicine every month?
At this moment, the thirteenth uncle was nestled in a comfortable rattan chair, squinting his eyes, and drinking a pot of tea comfortably, the fragrance of tea overflowing.
As soon as Suning smelled it, he knew that this was the most expensive tea on the mainland, called 'Tianshan Yunding'.
This kind of tea is born on the snowfield of the Tianshan Mountains, grows between the clouds and clouds, and absorbs the essence of the sun and the moon, which is very precious.
A piece of tea, when combined, is equivalent to forty or fifty yuan stones, which is staggeringly expensive.
It's not something that ordinary people can afford to consume.
Drinking it regularly can not only play the effect of cutting hair and washing the marrow, but also prolong life, which is a rare treasure for warriors.
In the previous life, Suning visited countless people seeking medicine, and he didn't know how much he received as a gift from this 'Tianshan Yunding'.
But at this moment, he may not even be able to afford a piece of tea.
Thinking of this, he suddenly felt infinite emotion in his heart.
"Uncle Thirteen, I'm Suning!"
For this thirteenth uncle with a transcendent status and a strange temper, Suning's attitude was quite respectful.
"Hmm!"
The thirteenth uncle opened his eyes and glanced at Suning, and blew his beard in response.
Suning didn't care, and was about to speak again, when he heard the thirteenth uncle say in an old and hoarse voice: "Go back, with your physical level, even if you take the elixir, it's useless, don't think about changing any elixir, it's all in vain!"
The thirteenth uncle's tone was flat, as if he was telling this matter of course, and he didn't care about Suning's feelings at all.
Suning was slightly angry when he heard this, but he was quickly relieved, what Uncle Thirteen said was right, if he was still the physique of the previous people, it was indeed useless to eat the elixir.
But now it's different, he has the 'World Destroying True Body Technique', which is equivalent to mastering the method of improving his physique the day after tomorrow.
At this moment, as long as he obtained the pill he wanted, he would go back to cultivating the treasure body.
"I'm tired of Uncle Thirteen, I want a few pills, please ask Uncle Thirteen to help me exchange them. ”
Suning didn't refute it and continued.
"Hmph, it's really a disobedient boy, a little like your father. Tell me about it, and I'll give it to you if you have one. ”
While speaking, Uncle Thirteen was lying on the rattan chair, still motionless.
"Meridian Cleansing Pill, Haoyue Ming Purifying Scatter and Soul Strengthening Pill. ”
Suning suddenly reported the names of the three pills he needed, which were all prescriptions he prescribed according to his own physical condition after careful consideration.
"What? Do you want the Meridian Cleansing Pill, Haoyue Ming Purifying Powder and Soul Strengthening Pill? I heard you right, these are all human-level high-grade pills, even superb pills, in the entire twelve cities of Tiandu County, the pharmacists who can refine this kind of pill plus me, there are only seven or eight. ”
"As soon as you open your mouth, you want three, what kind of pill is the best pill for you, is it so worthless?"
"Today's young people are really talking!"
Uncle Thirteen was so shocked that he squirted out a mouthful of tea, and his eyes glared at Suning, almost angry.
Perhaps in his concept in his previous life, a human-level peerless elixir was nothing at all.
But in this small city, even if it is a low-grade pill, it is an extremely rare thing for many martial artists.
In his opinion, it can be regarded as an eye-catching earth-level elixir, which is already a very rare treasure for the martial artists here.
As for the Heavenly Rank Pills for the martial artists in the entire Twelve Cities of Tiandu County, they are all like legends, and they are rare to see.
Ordinary martial artists directly take some medicinal soup made of elixir to assist in cultivation.
The medicinal power and efficacy of the decoction are really far inferior to the elixir.
It's no wonder that the Thirteenth Uncle Guild was so surprised.
"Hmph, your kid's appetite is not small, do you know that the three pills you want, each of which is known as the medicine of the tiger and wolf, is indeed of great help to the cultivation of martial artists, but the medicine is violent, if you take it improperly, you will die on the spot! ”
After the thirteenth uncle finished speaking, he glanced at Suning again and said: "I have heard about the Murong family's recruitment, you have the courage to refuse, you are finally a little bloody, and you have not lost the face of my Su family, but young people should also have self-knowledge, I gave you these medicines, but it hurt you, you are good to exchange for some elixirs, go back and boil them into soup and drink them, or I can give you a few low-grade elixirs, as for the three elixirs you said, forget it!"
The thirteenth uncle blew his beard, half refusal, half comfort.
In the eyes of the thirteenth uncle himself, he can talk about it like this, it is completely a great gift to Suning, and ordinary family children come over, he really doesn't bother to look at it.
But he didn't expect that Suning was actually very persistent.
"Thank you uncle for reminding me, I have a sense of proportion, I have enough family contribution points here, and I ask my uncle to redeem them for me!"
Suning's reaction was very calm.
The calm made the thirteenth uncle almost angry.
"You kid just don't know what to do!"
Ordinary family members, he didn't bother to give a few words at all, this time he was finally in a good mood, but this Suning still didn't appreciate it, which made him angry.
"Hmph, you kid is too ignorant of the height of the sky, even if there are these three pills, I won't give them to you, let you eat these pills, it's a waste, a person with a lower physique, even if it gives you the legendary elixir, it's useless, let's go, let's go!"
The thirteenth uncle is like a powder keg that has been ignited, trying his best to express his contempt and dissatisfaction, and even has issued an eviction order.
"Hmph, if you don't give it, you won't give it, Uncle Thirteen will give me some elixirs, I'll refine these three elixirs myself, right?"
When Suning heard this, he was immediately a little angry.
He originally wanted to directly obtain some elixirs to help him improve his physique and save the trouble of refining, but the thirteenth uncle was unwilling to give it, so he simply refined it himself.
"What, you refine the pill yourself? Haha, I think you kid is stupid, I won't say that you don't even know the most basic common sense of alchemy, just say that you know the formula of these pills you want?
The thirteenth uncle was almost blown up by Suning, and in his opinion, Suning was completely crazy.
Actually, what Uncle Thirteen said is right, in this world, generally speaking, except for those very rare elixirs, ordinary elixirs are usually worthless.
What is really valuable is the various elixir formulas.
The recipes of certain high-grade pills can often be sold for millions of yuan in stone.
After all, there are not a few pharmacists who can make alchemy, but there are very few pharmacists who can configure the formula of the pill by themselves.
The three pills that Suning needed were all high-grade pills, even superb pills.
The formula of this level of elixir has never been kept secret, and only some big families can master it.
A third-class person like Suning, wanting to know, is simply wishful thinking.
Suning really didn't know these formulas in the past, but for Suning now, the formulas of several human-level pills are really nothing.
"Hmph, the recipe, it's not easy. ”
Suning sneered.
