Chapter 321: Luo Zishahua
Hearing this, Zhang Xunjun smiled embarrassedly, seeing that this matter could no longer be hidden, he had an idea, and could only fool around: "Hehe, don't misunderstand, seventh brother, in fact, I also found out that there is an elixir here after I came here, in fact, it is just a third-order elixir ground flower, not worth a few dollars!"
Hearing the other party's words, Le Qi chuckled in his heart, and said that the fifth-order elixir Luo Zishahua was a third-order elixir, it seemed that this kid really regarded himself as a layman who didn't understand the elixir, so he laughed playfully twice, and questioned: "Third-order elixir ground line flower? Brother Zhang, why did the fifth-order elixir Luo Zishahua come into your mouth, and it became a third-order elixir ground flower, and if the grade was lowered, could even the variety be changed?"
"You even know how to identify elixir?" Hearing Le Qi accurately say the grade and name of this elixir, Zhang Soul Jun couldn't help but ask in surprise, originally he thought that the other party didn't know how to distinguish the elixir at all, so he thought that he could deceive the other party at will.
"Don't you understand, but what I don't understand is that with your shrewdness, how could you leave behind dozens of strings of more valuable money for the sake of a Luo Zishahua that is not too valuable. Well, it's time like this, let's talk about it!" Le Qi asked curiously.
Seeing that this matter could not be concealed at all, Zhang Xunjun could only purse his lips helplessly, and said very distressedly: ", seventh brother, you are really very good! I now regret telling you about this good place." Well, you're here anyway, and the matter must not be hidden, so I'll tell you directly. ”
After swallowing his saliva, he continued: "Do you want to know why I gave up Qian Jiaozi and chose Luo Zishahua?"
"That's right, you're not stupid, so I don't believe you'll lose a watermelon for sesame seeds. Nodding, Le Qi affirmed.
"That's right, you're not stupid, I'm not stupid, of course I won't do this kind of loss-making business, but what if the sesame seeds in your mouth are not sesame seeds?"
Not quite understanding the other party's words, Le Qi continued to ask, "Isn't it sesame?" But if I look at this plant, it's the fifth-order elixir Luo Zishahua, right?
Shaking his head, Zhang Xunjun patiently replied: "No, you can see it very accurately, this is a Luo Zishahua." What I want to say is that a lossophosis is indeed a small sesame seed, but what if it is a piece of saquatine!"
"A piece of Luo Zishahua?!" Le Qi said in surprise.
Zhang Soul Jun took two steps, pointed to the low ridge below, sighed and said, "Look for yourself, there is a large area below!"
Hearing this, Le Qi came to the side and looked down, and sure enough, as the melon boy said, under the low threshold of this meter, there was a piece of Luo Zi Shahua, and the preliminary estimate was that the number may exceed 100 plants!
However, in terms of its price, it may be able to top two or three sixth-order elixirs, but compared to the money hanger full of vines, who is more expensive, it's really hard to say, right?
Still not quite understanding, Le Qi continued to ask the bottom of the question: "Aren't you afraid that there are two or three strings of extremely high-grade ones in those money hangers, and they can also top the value of these Luo Zishahua?"
Zhang Xunjun shook his head and said with a smile: "Don't be afraid, first of all, I have roughly swept my eyes at that area, and it should not have reached the sixth-order Huang Jieling, and secondly, even if I really missed my eyes and was swallowed by you in the end, it doesn't matter, it's just a few thousand amethysts! In my eyes, Luo Zishahua's value is obviously higher." ”
Glancing at the other party in some surprise, Le Qi quipped: "Oh, it seems that Brother Zhang has a deep background, and the loss of thousands of amethysts is just an inconsequential trifle!"
"That's right, although a few thousand amethysts are a lot, but for me, it's really not too much. ”
Zhang Xunjun didn't want to play these twists and turns anymore, so he generously admitted it, and then said clearly: "Besides, brother, don't pretend, thousands of amethysts are nothing to you! I'm not an ordinary adventurer, and you can't either! Our brothers have reached the point of sharing benefits, so don't pretend to be poor with each other!"
"You're right, I'm not bad for a few thousand amethysts, but how do you see that? I think I'm hiding it well. "Le Qi is puzzled, when he recovered before, he could still find a low-level medicine like Xiao Lingdan, how could the other party know that he was not an ordinary adventurer?
"It's true that you hide it well, but this kind of weapons and equipment, coupled with your strength and age, can still recognize Luo Zishahua's unusual elixir, and you can probably guess that you are not ordinary. Zhang Soul Jun analyzed.
"I see. However, I'm still curious, why is Luo Zishahua's value so high in your eyes?" "Since the other party thinks that thousands of amethysts are dispensable, why do they still value this less valuable elixir so much?"
"It's simple, because it's scarce and I need it. ”
The information was quickly processed in his brain, and Le Qi opened his mouth to speculate: "Through this sentence, can I understand two pieces of information, first, you are an alchemist, and second, Luo Zishahua is not easy to buy, but as far as I know, the price of Luo Zishahua does not seem to be too high?
"It seems that you still have to pay attention when talking to smart people!" Zhang Xunjun shook his head with a smile, straightened his chest confidently, and coughed lightly and said, "That's right, I am indeed an alchemist! At the same time, according to your words, I can basically determine that you are not an alchemist, but an experienced medicine collector."
To answer your second question, you are right, Luo Zishahua is indeed not easy to buy on the market, in fact, there are not many people who really know it, many half-bucket water medicine pickers and even alchemists can't identify this elixir, so I was very surprised that you could recognize this elixir before.
Having said that, there should be a question in your heart, why is Luo Zishahua, as a fifth-order elixir, not high in production, but the price is pitifully low?"
Nodding in agreement, Le Qi analyzed: "That's right, this makes me very puzzled, the so-called scarcity is expensive, the output is low, there should be a situation where supply exceeds demand, then, its price should be very high to be reasonable." ”
"You're right, supply and demand determine the price of items, basically nothing can break this law, the same is true for Luo Zishahua, its output is low, and the price is low, which means that its demand is lower!"
Talking about his professional field, Zhang Xunjun spoke with confidence, pursed his somewhat dry lips, and continued: "There are roughly three reasons for its low demand. First: its popularity is low, and it is basically a relatively out-of-the-way elixir, so its output is actually not high, because it cannot be bought for a long time, so many prescriptions will not use it.
Second: Each Luo Zi Sawa contains very few effective essence substances, that is, some sand-like substances extracted from its flowers, so it is named Sawa Bloom, perhaps to refine a fifth-order elixir, at least ten or more plants are needed, so it is cheaper to use some substitutes.
Last but not least, Luo Zishahua is poisonous! If it is not handled properly, it is likely to lead to chronic poisoning of the user, causing discomfort at least and injuring the internal organs at worst! Therefore, many alchemists are cautious and are not willing to use it!"
"Poisonous?" This did make Le Qi feel a little surprised, but after pondering for a while, he felt that it was wrong, the elixir was poisonous, it was actually a very common thing, right? So, he couldn't help but ask suspiciously: "Isn't it?
Zhang Soul Jun did not deny it: "I don't deny this, it is true that there are many kinds of elixirs that contain essence ingredients at the same time, they contain all kinds of toxic substances, and they can be refined to obtain pure and effective essence ingredients, so they can be used for refining medicine."
But sometimes, the essence of the elixir itself is toxic, that is to say, the essence of the elixir is a toxic substance, in this case, it is impossible to remove the toxicity through refining, and Luo Zishahua belongs to this situation.
In fact, there is a very good saying, the so-called medicine is three poisons, not only Luo Zishahua, many elixirs, especially some elixirs with special functions, their essence ingredients have a certain toxicity, just because the toxicity is small, and the dose is controlled, so the impact on the body of the user is generally small. However, the toxicity of Luo Zishahua is much greater, so it is recognized as a poisonous elixir. ”
"But knowing this, you still want to use this more toxic elixir, instead of its substitute, is there a special way to completely eliminate its toxicity?" Le Qi stated the facts, the other party still wanted to use it as a medicine even though he knew Luo Zishahua's shortcomings, so it could only show one thing, he had a way to solve the problem.
Zhang Xunjun replied with interest: "Hmm... You can understand it the same way. I know that it is poisonous, but I still want to use it, for roughly two reasons, first, Luo Zishahua is a fifth-order elixir that strengthens **, and its actual effect may not be inferior to many sixth-order elixirs, and it is most suitable for you and me to use Soul Lock Realm martial artists, which is very attractive to me;
Although I can't tell you the specific prescription, but this way, it can be mentioned, the method I use, is to change the way it is used, from ordinary refining into pills and then oral to external use!"
"Can external use make it non-toxic?" Le Qi was puzzled, he originally thought that the other party would use some high-end method to change the subtle structure of the essence ingredients to remove the toxicity, but he never thought that it was just that simple, just like this, without changing the ingredients at all, the toxicity should still be there, right?
