Chapter 364: Alchemy Business

After Zhang Yuqing and Wei Ping left, Liu Yu and Tian came to a side room and sat down, the maid brought a tea fragrance, and the two chatted.

"By the way, Xiaoyou just said that there is something to find the old man?" I don't know what it is?" the two chatted for a while, and the old man asked with a chuckle.

"That's the case! I got a lot of spiritual materials with a strange appearance, and I asked a lot of people, but I don't know what it is, so I want to ask you to help me take a look!" Liu Yu put down the teacup in his hand and replied.

"Oh, please take it out and let the old man take a look!" said the old man with some curiosity.

"That's it," Liu Yu took out the piece of "blood-spotted black taro" and handed it to the old man.

The old man carefully looked at the "black pimple" on his hand, gently touched the dark markings on the skin of the "black pimple", and said with a smile: "This thing is called "blood spot black taro", which grows in a kind of three-grade poisonous soil called "red spot stinky mud", which is indeed extremely rare. ”

"It turns out that the name of this thing is "Bloodstained Black Taro", I don't know what this thing is for?" Liu Yu asked suddenly.

"This thing contains highly poisonous, it is rumored to be used in some secret recipes, although it is very rare, but the medicinal value is not great, if Xiaoyou wants to make a move, this store can buy two thousand low-grade spirit stones. The old man said indifferently.

"This thing is novel, I want to keep it in my hands and collect it, thank you for your old puzzle!" Liu Yu said with a haha, it seems that what Tian Qi said is the truth, Liu Yu can't help but look forward to the results of Tian Qi's retreat to "build a foundation".

"Xiaoyou is polite! This is the rules of this store, and the old man should do it. The old man politely replied that Bai Xinglin has always had the service of helping the store VIPs identify and identify various spiritual materials for free.

Liu Yu took a sip of tea, and then said, "There is another thing I want to ask you for advice on!"

"What's the matter?" replied the old man directly.

Liu Yu opened his mouth and said: "It is said that your store has always had the business of "alchemy" on behalf of you, I don't know if it's true or not?"

That's right, in addition to helping the store VIPs identify and identify medicinal materials for free, the store also provides "alchemy" services, but a corresponding fee is charged, depending on the specific situation. The old man replied with a smile.

"Can the Heart-Breaking Pill be refined?" Liu Yu asked directly, now that Liu Yu had all the main drugs "Broken Empty Grass" and "Seven Star Flower" for refining the "Heart-Breaking Pill", how to refine it had become an annoying problem.

The old man smiled confidently: "Of course, don't talk about the "Heart-Breaking Pill", as long as the guests bring their own spiritual materials, even if they are taken during the Jindan period, our store also provides "alchemy" services. ”

"If you have enough alchemy spirit materials, please ask the "alchemist" in the store to refine a "Heart-Breaking Pill", how many spirit stones do you need to pay?" Liu Yu's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked.

Xiaoyou should know that "alchemy" has a certain risk, even if the alchemy technique is perfected by a high-level alchemist, there is no guarantee that 100% "one furnace becomes a pill", and there is a possibility of failure. The old man took a sip of tea and said slowly.

"This is clear below!" Liu Yu frowned and nodded.

The old man chuckled and continued: "Our store's "alchemy" has therefore launched two kinds of "alchemy" services, one is that the guest bears his own risk, only needs to pay a small fee, and the other is that the store bears the full risk, even if the spiritual material "alchemy" provided by the guest fails, the store will replenish the spiritual material and then alchemy until the "finished pill" is refined, but the cost is ......."

"If you want to refine a 'Heart-Breaking Pill' and use the second 'Alchemy' method, how much will it cost?" Liu Yu interrupted the old man and said impatiently.

The old man glanced at Liu Yu and said, "10,000 low-grade spirit stones, and another 200,000 points from this store." ”

"If the points are insufficient, can you add more spirit stones?" Liu Yu then asked curiously.

The old man did not answer directly, but asked: "As we all know, "alchemy", "drawing talismans", and "refining tools" are self-contained, extremely profound, and among the three skills, "alchemy" has the lowest threshold, followed by "drawing talismans", and "refining" is the most difficult to get started. But the most difficult of these three skills to master is "alchemy", do you know why?"

"Why?" Liu Yu couldn't help but shake his head and replied.

Liu Yu understood what the old man said earlier, among these three skills, the threshold for "alchemy" was indeed the lowest, and the refining techniques of some low-level pills were almost unskillful, and several spiritual materials were crushed and put into the "alchemy furnace", and the flames were smelted into a "mixed liquid", and the finished pill was obtained by cooling and forming.

Some elixirs don't even need to be put into the "alchemy furnace", they can be crushed into powder and mixed in a certain proportion, such as the gold-based elixir "Jin Yuansan", or crushed into powder and added to a specific "spiritual liquid" to mix evenly, similar to the "Qingmu liquid" that Liu Yu took in the early stage of qi training.

But Liu Yu couldn't understand what the old man said later, "drawing talismans" and "refining tools" not only have certain requirements for cultivation and spiritual knowledge, but also the techniques are obviously more cumbersome, and it stands to reason that it will be more difficult to master.

The old man smiled and said: "Although the process of "alchemy" is not complicated, but each link needs to be meticulous, it needs to have rich pharmacological cognition, and the selection of materials, proportions, techniques, heat and other aspects are full of accidents, each link directly affects the success or failure and quality of "alchemy", and it takes more practice and practice than "painting" and "refining", and the failure rate is also the highest among the three skills, and sometimes it even takes some luck to refine a good pill. ”

"Therefore, the second option provided by this store bears all the risks, especially when refining high-grade elixirs, once it fails, it will bring huge losses to the store. This option is a unique benefit for the VIP of our store, the points are insufficient, and it cannot be replaced by spirit stones, I hope you can understand. ”

"Your store has such courage, it deserves to be called the No. 1 pharmacy of Dongyuan, I admire it!" Liu Yu arched his hand and said, ordinary pharmacies would not dare to make such a promise, "alchemy" is already extremely risky, how can there be a guarantee of 100% success.

But I have to say that this "Hundred Apricot Forest" is really a good means, and 200,000 points can mean that at least 200,000 low-level spirit stones should be consumed in the "Hundred Apricot Forest" in advance, the threshold is not low, but it is also very tempting.

The old man asked half-jokingly, "Why did Xiaoyou suddenly ask about this? Could it be that Daoyou wants to refine the Heart Breaking Pill?"

Liu Yu replied with a sloppy look: "In the next year, I have only cultivated the eighth layer of qi, but I am just curious, just ask, you don't need to care." ”

The old man glanced at Liu Yu meaningfully, and said, "If you want to refine this pill in the future, you can come to this medicine store, and all branches of this medicine store provide this service." ”

"I hope so! The spiritual materials needed for this "Heart-Breaking Pill" are so expensive, whether they can be scraped together is another matter!" Liu Yu said with a pretended sadness.

The two chatted for a while, Liu Yu said goodbye and left, the sword was high in the air, blowing a cool breeze, and the mood suddenly became relaxed, this trip not only determined the authenticity of the "blood-spotted black taro", but also found a safe way to refine the "Heart-Breaking Pill", and the doubts that pressed on Liu Yu's heart suddenly dissipated a lot.

The second option provided by "Baixinglin" is harsh, but it is not difficult for Liu Yu. Because the points of the "Thousand Wood Order" in Liu Yu's hands have reached an astonishing 180,000.

About half of them are the points that Liu Yu has accumulated from shopping and consumption in the "Hundred Apricot Forest", and the rest are the same brothers who asked him to help "purchase" various elixirs.
