Chapter 32: The Terrifying Talent for Alchemy
Seeing Jin Yu'er's failure to refine medicine, Chen Changan couldn't help but sneer.
When Jin Yu'er heard Chen Chang'an's laughter, she was immediately a little annoyed, her pretty face flushed, and she said loudly to Chen Changan: "What are you laughing at?
"Yu'er, Hugh is rude! If you are not good at learning, how can you implicate others?" Tutor Jin Feng said with some reproach.
As soon as Jin Yu'er spoke, she realized that her princess was sick again, but the words had already been spoken, and it was impossible to take it back.
In the academy, her identity does not play a big role, at most it is to make some ordinary students stay away from her, after coming to the academy, her aunt often educates her, so that she does not provoke others at will, and she cannot offend the strong people in the academy because of her bad temper.
In Jinyang Kingdom, the deterrent power of Jinyang Academy is even greater than the influence of the royal family.
The current Chen Changan is a genius that Zhang Lao and another Yuan Lao compete for, and he can't be easily offended.
"It's okay, senior sister is by nature, the mentor doesn't have to care. ”
Chen Changan smiled modestly and did not take this matter to heart.
Rather than arguing with Jin Yu'er, he wanted to focus on learning the way of alchemy.
If you can become an alchemist, you will be self-sufficient in the future, and you can refine any pills you need, so that you can save a lot of expenses.
"Senior nephew Chen, what mistakes did Yu'er make in the process of refining medicine just now, can you see it?"
Tutor Jin Feng looked at Chen Changan's appearance, he should have already known it, so he wanted to test him.
"Hmm... The first point is that the senior sister is too restrained when refining medicine, and can even be said to be as timid as a mouse, so that the temperature of the flame is too low; the second point is that her method of controlling the fire is obviously too rusty, and the connection is not in place, combined with the low temperature of the flame, which leads to the failure of alchemy. The third point..."
Chen Changan was not afraid of hitting Jin Yu'er's weak heart, and directly pointed out some mistakes in her refining process.
Jin Yu'er listened to it on the side, her face was pale with anger, and she was trembling all over, and she wanted to kick Chen Changan in the face to shut him up.
She is a princess of a country, when has she been so angry and hit so mercilessly in front of her?
It's just that her aunt is watching from the sidelines, and she doesn't have a good seizure.
"Well, yes, basically nothing is missing, Yu'er, do you understand?"
Tutor Jin Feng nodded with a smile, very satisfied with Chen Changan's answer, and then turned his head to stare at Jin Yu'er, with a warning in his eyes, and asked.
Jin Yu'er wanted to refute, but was stopped by Mentor Jin Feng's eyes, so she had to resist her impulse and nodded yes.
Immediately, her eyes flashed, and then she said with a smile on her face: "Senior Brother Chen, Yu'er is clumsy in her hands and feet, so you can see it laughing, so I still ask Senior Pharmacist Chen to point out one or two." ”
"The word pharmacist Chen doesn't dare to be. ”
Chen Changan's heart tightened, this Nizi obviously wanted to hold herself high, and wait for her to fail before she was sarcastic.
The first time he started refining medicine, Chen Changan was not very sure, he didn't want Jin Yu'er to catch his pigtails and entangle.
Chen Changan came to the Dan furnace, and recalled in his mind the process of Mentor Jin Feng's refining the 'Fu Yuan Dan'.
Regarding some steps in the process of refining medicine, Chen Changan and Jin Yu'er have tried them themselves in the past few days, but they are only trying individual steps, and it is a big test to integrate all the steps together and integrate them.
The first step is material selection.
Chen Changan selected the part he needed from a large number of materials.
Even if it is the same material, it is also good and bad, and it will be affected to different degrees by year, moisture, etc.
Picking and choosing, Chen Changan chose the most suitable part of the materials.
This situation fell in the eyes of Mentor Jin Feng, and he couldn't help but nod and sigh secretly, just this first step in the selection of materials, Chen Changan has far surpassed Jin Yu'er.
After choosing the materials, it is time for the second step, which is to start a fire.
The alchemist is also particular about the type of fire when refining the pill, but the low-grade pill like the Fu Yuan Pill does not have high requirements for fire.
Chen Changan lit a small piece of green bamboo charcoal, and a wisp of pale cyan flame rose up, evenly covering the bottom of the Dan furnace.
After the fire, Chen Changan put the materials into the Dan furnace in order.
The order and timing of material input are all exquisite, and only by maximizing the role of materials can we refine high-quality elixirs.
Chen Changan concentrated his energy, urged the force in his body, and controlled the temperature of the flame in the air.
Using one's own strength to control the size of the flame, this technique belongs to the lowest level, if the cultivation is not enough, and even the strength of the mountain cannot be separated from the body, it is impossible to become an alchemist.
Chen Changan's ability to control the flames is very strong, thanks to his extraordinary control of his own strength, and the temperature of the flames is well controlled.
Over time, the materials in the Dan furnace begin to melt and decompose the essence inside.
Chen Changan added green bamboo charcoal to the bottom of the Dan furnace from time to time, and the refining process was carried out in an orderly manner.
Next, to the very critical step is fusion.
It is not easy to fuse materials with different medicinal effects and properties together, and it requires strong control capabilities.
The process of medicinal fusion is very slow, from the beginning of the fire to the present, an hour has passed, and Chen Changan still seems calm.
Jin Yu'er couldn't help but be moved, if it was her, after such a long period of power output, I am afraid that the power in his body would have been squandered, but Chen Changan was still very calm, it can be imagined how strong the power in his body was.
"Without wasting a single bit of power, the maximum use of the power of the mountain, the control of the flame has almost reached the point of doing whatever he wants, such a superb fire control ability is almost comparable to that of a veteran alchemist. ”
At this time, Mentor Jin Feng had to admire Zhang Lao's vision, this Chen Changan was indeed a genius in alchemy.
After a while, the fusion of the medicinal liquid was almost complete, and at this time, a faint medicinal fragrance diffused throughout the room.
Now, the steps of refining the medicine have basically been completed, and all that remains is to wait for Cheng Dan.
Two hours later, Chen Changan gradually regained his strength, and the flames under the Dan furnace were about to burn, and the flames began to dim.
After waiting for a moment, Chen Changan bent his fingers, and the lid of the Dan furnace opened, and several pills with a dark blue luster popped out from inside.
At this point, the entire process of refining medicine has come to an end.
Swish~
Chen Changan's eyes were quick, and with a wave of his big hand, he grabbed all the pills in the air in his hand.
"Let me see, how much yield do you have?"
Seeing that the elixir was refined, Mentor Jin Feng hurriedly said.
Yield?
Chen Changan was stunned for a moment, and soon thought of the common sense of refining medicine.
Each furnace of elixir is refined, there is a different success rate, for example, out of ten pills, five are finished products, and the rest are either waste pills or defective products.
Thinking of this, Chen Changan handed over all the pills to Mentor Jin Feng.
"What won't be refined are all defective products and waste pills, right?" Jin Yu'er didn't forget to tease.
However, when she looked up, her aunt's face was full of solemnity, and her eyes showed obvious shock.
"There are a total of ten Fu Yuan Dan, one is of perfect quality, one is of high quality, six are ordinary, and one is slightly off-average, but it can also be counted as ordinary. ”
Speaking of this, Mentor Jin Feng paused for a moment and continued: "If the requirements are not too strict, this can be regarded as a 100% yield rate!"
"What? 100 percent yield? This can't be..."
Jin Yu'er was shocked by her aunt's words, she would never have thought that Chen Chang'an would have a 100% yield rate when refining the pill for the first time.
"You... Is it really the first time to refine medicine?"
Mentor Jin Feng stared at Chen Changan with suspicion.
"Yes, it was the first time. ”
Chen Changan was a little weak by Mentor Jin Feng's staring, and he didn't expect that his first time refining medicine, there would be a 100% yield rate.
Hearing Chen Chang'an's reconfirmation, Mentor Jin Feng and Jin Yu'er couldn't help but look at him with strange eyes, and their expressions were a little complicated.
Jin Yu'er was even more frustrated, a little depressed, and those prepared mocking words pressed in her throat, a little uncomfortable.
"These ten Fu Yuan Pills were refined by you yourself, and they are also the results of your first refining medicine, so I will leave them for you as a souvenir, and you can go back..."
Yes?
..........
In this way, Chen Changan was inexplicably driven out by Mentor Jinfeng, and in the room, only Mentor Jinfeng and Mentor Jin Yuer were left, looking at each other.
"Auntie, Chen Chang'an... Aren't you going to teach him?" Jin Yu'er couldn't help but ask.
"A genius like him, do you think I am still qualified to teach him? 100% yield, such a genius, I'm afraid that even the entire Jinyang Kingdom can't tolerate him..."
Yes!
This... How can it be?
When Jin Yu'er heard this, she couldn't help but be shocked.
As a princess of a country, Jin Yu'er naturally knows what this means.
Chen Chang'an has such a talent for refining medicine, even if it is placed in the entire continent, he can be regarded as a genius demon, and the small Jinyang Kingdom, Jinyang Academy, I am afraid that it really can't accommodate such a peerless genius.
"This matter, we need to keep it secret for the time being, and we must not leak it out, otherwise, it may lead to unnecessary disputes in Jinyang Kingdom. From today onwards, don't offend him easily, get as close to him as you can, but remember, don't cause him to be disgusted, you know?"
Tutor Jin Feng looked at Jin Yu'er with a serious face and admonished her.
After leaving the Elixir Pavilion, Chen Changan returned to his own courtyard and couldn't help but think.
His performance today is really a bit too dazzling, and the yield rate of 100% is not guaranteed even by some alchemy masters when refining this kind of low-grade elixir.
Not only that, Chen Changan is still refining medicine for the first time, and he has already reached this step, and it is difficult not to be shocked.
"It seems that we should try to keep a low profile in the future..."
