Chapter 044: Bring to a boil over high heat, simmer over low heat
"Is that true?"
Hearing Xiao Fan's words, both of them became serious.
Especially City Lord Xue, his body sat up a little straighter, obviously very concerned about this matter.
"At least eighty percent sure!" Xiao Fan replied.
City Lord Xue nodded slightly, his expression not very happy.
"It's no wonder that the demon slayer team sent out recently has repeatedly swooped down, it turns out that my side has already been infiltrated by the enemy! Little friend, do you have more specific information? He asked.
Xiao Fan shook his head.
He only analyzed the possibilities from the conversation, and he didn't know who the spy was. Gale
Yu Wuya thought for a while and said, "Recently, there is no new person under your command to join, and that person may have been lurking for a long time, and there may even be more than one. This is just the right time, if there is a sign of the rise, take the opportunity to get rid of it! ”
Xue Wanshan nodded in agreement.
Immediately said to Xiao Fan: "Thank you for the news you brought, we will pay attention to this matter, if you have nothing else, you can leave first."
"Uh...... Good. ”
Xiao Fan pursed his lips, a little depressed.
That's not the case......
He thought that he could do a task by the way and earn some experience or something, but he didn't expect the city lord to be so indifferent.
Not even a thank-you gift!
But it doesn't matter, he's not bad for this reward anyway. Bringing the message back is just out of a sense of responsibility as a human player.
And logically speaking, this is part of the main plot, and there should be a plot trigger in the future, but the time has not yet come.
Xiao Fan turned around and went out, and soon left the City Lord's Mansion.
"Next, let's practice a life career!"
The siege is still more than 20 hours away.
The consumption of medicines at that time will definitely be large.
Although he has the money and can directly sweep the goods in the pharmacy, in line with the principle of saving what he can, it is more cost-effective to do it himself.
Moreover, after the level of alchemy is raised, you can also make some top-grade pills that you can't buy in pharmacies, which is the most meaningful!
……
In Thunder City, there is an area dedicated to sub-classes, and the scope is quite wide.
Xiao Fan needed to buy some tools and materials before he could start refining medicine.
Every sub-profession in "Hongmeng" is not something that can be operated empty-handed, alchemy requires an alchemy furnace and medicine containers, forging requires furnaces, anvils, forging hammers and other tools, and cooking also requires buying a pot.
Moreover, he had to buy some herb materials for refining medicine, he had not encountered any herbs in the process of leveling, and the collection technique had hardly been used.
10 minutes later, Xiao Fan came to the gate of a retro compound.
Dan Dao Hall
This is the place name.
The opposite one is called "Fire Refining Hall", and it is engaged in forging.
Next door, there are also people who draw symbols, make clothes, make jewelry, make food, and so on.
Not far away, there is also a market that sells materials for various sub-professions, such as ores, metals, furs, herbs, and more.
Xiao Fan walked into the gate of the Dan Dao Hall, and there were many players in the courtyard who were tinkering with the Dan furnace and learning medicine.
"There are quite a lot of people, where can I sell alchemy furnaces?" He asked.
A player who was in alchemy replied: "Brother, it's not cost-effective to buy a Dan furnace, you can rent a Dan furnace like us, 100 copper coins a day is enough."
Can Dan furnace still be rented?
Xiao Fan smiled and declined this method.
He can't take it away, he can only use it here, and he doesn't want to come here every day to practice his skills.
Buy a stove for your own use, and you can do alchemy wherever you want, so that you can quickly hone it in the "Trial Secret Realm" next time.
"Who's going to buy the Dan furnace?"
At this moment, an NPC walked out.
Xiao Fan took a look at his message.
: Level 140 foundation building period, 2 million HP
This man must be the steward here.
"Hello senior, I want to buy it, I don't know what kind of alchemy furnace you have here?" Xiao Fan stepped forward and said.
"See for yourself."
Danshi Zhang Xuanming directly showed a trading interface for him to see.
: 1 tael of silver (damaged after 100 uses, irreparable)
: 10 taels of silver (durability 1000, increase the success rate of ordinary pills by 5%, can be repaired)
: 1,000 taels of silver (durability 10,000, increase the success rate of Zhongpin Dan by 5%, can be repaired)
: 10 spirit stones (never wear, improve the success rate of high-grade elixir and below by 5%)
Higher quality Dan Furnaces cannot be purchased from here, and you need to go to the Immortal Cultivation Sect or kill powerful bosses to obtain them.
Xiao Fan saw that he could only afford Xuantie, so he bought two at a time and kept one for backup.
"Xiaoyou, do you need to buy Danfang?" Zhang Xuanming asked him.
Alchemy requires a prescription, which records the plan for dispensing the medicine, as well as the time control during refining.
But this thing...... It's on the forum, so you don't have to spend money in vain.
"Thanks, no."
Xiao Fan shook his head and refused, then walked to the fire refining hall on the other side, stopping by to see if the forging tools were expensive.
The Furnace is bustling with activity, and many players are renting tools to practice blacksmithing.
Xiao Fan still asked where to sell tools when he entered the door.
Then a bare-chested strong man walked out and showed a trading interface for him to choose from.
: 5 taels of silver (including rough forging hammers, rough pliers, rough anvils, rough furnaces and other equipment, irreparable)
: 50 taels of silver (including dark iron quality forging equipment, repairable)
: 5000 taels of silver (including bronze quality forging equipment, repairable)
: 50 Spirit Stones (never wear)
Obviously, the cost of forging is much higher than that of pharmaceuticals.
Xiao Fan spent 50 taels of silver to buy a set of dark iron quality, and there were less than 80 taels of silver left on his body.
"I've got to go buy some materials."
He didn't pick grass for mining himself, so in order to save time, he had to go to the market to buy it.
The bazaar is even more lively, and there are many players near the intersection who are setting up stalls to sell various materials, and if you have a large amount, you can go in and find NPCs to wholesale.
He first opened the "Raiders" area of the forum and looked at the synthesis formulas of various basic pills.
= Green silk grass + red leaf flower
= Herb + Manna + Yellow Root
= Lingshen Whisker + Cloud Pine Nuts + Hundred Beast Blood + Safflower Root (Add 5 times the amount of medicinal materials to the Great Huisheng Powder)
= Yellow essence + snake gall bladder + spiritual spring water
= Leopard bone + blood of a hundred beasts + cloud crystal powder + spiritual spring water
These are the drugs that are suitable for players from level 10 to level 50, and the recipes are clear.
As for the high-level drug formulas such as the Blood Warp Stone and the Soul Rejuvenation Pill, the official forums are not public, so they can only wait for players to release their own strategies or find NPCs to buy prescriptions.
"My success rate is naturally 10 times higher, and I can start directly with Chinese medicine." Xiao Fan said secretly.
The cycle of pharmaceuticals is faster than forging, and it can be put into use immediately, which is more meaningful than forging weapons.
In terms of weapons, although he doesn't have high-level weapons now, the level 20 silver outfit is not bad, so-so and can be used, and he is not in a hurry to build it.
Xiao Fan walked around the bazaar and found that the medicinal materials sold by the players were more than 10% cheaper than those in the system store, so he bought 100 sets of "Huisheng San" and 100 sets of "Yiqi San" materials.
Each set of materials can be used to refine 10 medicines at a time. If all of them are successful, it's 1,000 of each!
If it fails, there's nothing......
The price of "Xiao Hui Sheng San" in the system pharmacy is 100 copper, and the price of "Yi Qi San" is 500 copper, and if you buy 1,000 pieces of each, you need a full 600 taels of silver!
And the purchase of materials only cost less than 20 taels in total.
I just don't know how much the final medicine can make.
Xiao Fan bought good things, walked around the street, found a secluded alley, and directly refined medicine outdoors.
He took out the Xuantie Dan Furnace, placed it on the matching base, and released the skill "Alchemy Qi Method", injecting 10 points of True Qi.
Coax~
A flame burst into flames, and the entire Dan furnace was slightly reddened.
Then, according to the configuration of the Danfang, four kinds of medicinal materials are put in turn: ginseng whiskers, cloud pine nuts, animal blood, and safflower roots.
The lid of the Dan furnace is sealed, and the herbs are burned to a liquid boil over high heat, and then turned to a simmer and simmered...... Slow for two minutes.
Then the furnace automatically turned off.
Alchemy in the game is that simple!
