Lord of Bones
Chapter 108 Entering Qingdi City
Chapter 108 Entering Qingdi City (Second Change)
Going deep into the forest, the trees are tall and lush, and the light is getting darker and darker.
"Just here."
Suddenly stopped, Li Yuan looked around, nodded in satisfaction, and said something to Guan Tian.
There was no expression on Guan Tian's old face, he just nodded slightly.
Li Yuan and the others turned around and looked at Duan Libo and Duan Libo who were following.
At this moment, Duan Libo's two footsteps paused slightly, and they were slightly surprised that Li Yuan and the other found them.
They felt that with Li Yuan and his cultivation, it was impossible to find their whereabouts.
Duan Libo and Xue Han continued to walk towards Li Yuan and the others, and stopped when there were still more than twenty steps away.
Duan Libo, with indifferent eyes, said in an extremely cold voice: "Unexpectedly, in less than two years, you have broken through to this level of cultivation. The speed of the cultivation of the dragon bone is really amazing. Presumably this little girl has the Yuan in her body. Bone, the level is not weaker than the dragon bone."
"Thanks to the two elders of the Ma family, we didn't let you down." Li Yuan's eyes intertwined with Duan Libo's and Xue Han's, and he said immediately, "Although our cultivation base has improved rapidly, the day we step into the Yuandan realm , I don’t know if I can still see the two of you, they don’t have much lifespan left after all.”
Hearing this, Duan Libo's and his two's expressions darkened, these words angered them.
"It seems that you know quite a lot. That's all, let's stop here for what bones you have now. Elder Xue, do it." Duan Libo sternly said.
Seeing Li Yuan and the others were not afraid. In order to prevent more variables, Duan Libo was obviously not interested in how Li Yuan knew their identities at the moment, so he just killed them.
Two long swords appeared out of nowhere in the hands of Duan Libo and Xue Han, and then shot at Li Yuan and the others at the same time.
At the moment when he swung the long sword, suddenly, a strong coercion of his cultivation directly imprisoned Duan Libo and the two of them, unable to move for a moment.
The two froze there, as quiet as dead people, unable to even move their eyes.
Li Yuan was expressionless, and said indifferently: "Brother Guan, kill him directly."
Guan Tian nodded, and glanced at Duan Libo and Duan Libo who were more than [-] steps away in front of them. Suddenly, the latter's body began to collapse.
A moment later, the bodies of Duan Libo and Xue Han split into countless pieces and a pool of blood.
Li Yuan glanced at the blood on the ground, then raised his palm lightly, absorbing the two Yun rings and the two long swords into his hands.
Without looking at it, he put away the Yun ring directly, and put the two long swords into his Yun ring.
At this moment, Li Yunqing looked at the blood on the ground in front of him and was extremely shocked.
Duan Libo and Xue Han are both at the early stage of the Yuandan realm, so how could they be so vulnerable in front of Guan Tian.
Guan Tian's current strength is too strong.
Li Yuan looked at Li Yunqing who was stunned, touched her head, and said in a low voice: "Little aunt, we should go. After living in the mountains for more than half a year, I can finally take a good bath and sleep well tonight. . to welcome the new day with energy.”
"Aren't we going to Qingdi City today?" Li Yunqing asked softly after regaining his senses.
Li Yuan, who had already walked away, raised his hands high, in a good mood, and shouted loudly: "There is no rush for a day and a half. I will go tomorrow. What are you doing standing there? Let's go."
Hearing this, Li Yunqing strode to follow, deliberately avoiding the blood on the ground, Guan Tian also followed closely.
.........
On the second day, the sun seemed to be much milder than yesterday, Li Yuan and the others did not come out of the inn until noon.
As soon as he reached the door of the inn, Li Yuan turned back again.
Ask the innkeeper if you can take giant wing birds and snow cloud sculptures in the town, but you can't, but there are places to rent beast carts.
According to the route given by the innkeeper, Li Yuan and the others quickly found a place to rent a beast cart.
Li Yuan and Li Yunqing had never driven a beast cart before, so this matter had to be done by Guan Tian in the end.
He drove the beast cart without stopping all the way, and rushed to Qingdi City before dark.
Qingdi City is the sixth largest city in Yuanzhou, smaller than Yangyan City, with 2000 million residents living in the city.
The base camp of the garrison guarding the city was not in Qingdi City, but Chaoming City, a small town thirty miles east of the city.
There are three major families in Qingdi City, namely the Zhai family, Wei family and Shi family who robbed Dan Jingcao before.
The Zhai family is the most powerful and is the oldest family in Qingdi City. It has always existed since the beginning of Qingdi City's construction.
The Wei and Shi families are evenly matched in strength, slightly weaker than the Zhai family.
A few years ago, Zhai Shiqing, the head of the Zhai family, was seriously ill and hadn't appeared in public for a long time.
Therefore, the strength of the Zhai family has declined in the past few years. In Qingdi City today, the three major families have the potential to stand on top of each other.
Entering the city and returning the beast cart, it was already completely dark.
At the beginning of the Chinese lanterns, the lights are bright.
Li Yuan decided to go to Zhai's house tomorrow morning in exchange for King Xuan Ginseng.
.........
The next morning.
Guan Tian took Li Yuan and the two to Zhai's house.
He knows the location of the Zhai family very well, it can be said that he knows better than the members of the Zhai family.
He has been there many times for Xuanwang Ginseng before.
As soon as you entered the street where the Zhai family compound was located, you could feel the momentum of the Zhai family mansion, and people couldn't help admiring that it was indeed the largest family in Qingzhai.
Before the few people reached the gate of Zhai's house, they were attracted by the noise coming from the gate.
I got closer and took a closer look. Many of them were pharmacists wearing the uniform of the guild of pharmacists.
The robes are mainly dark brown with dark green patterns, and the collar and sleeves are decorated with gold patterns.
There is also a dark green furnace-shaped badge on the chest, with fire patterns lingering on the furnace badge, and the rank of the alchemist can be seen from the number of fire patterns.
Judging from the number of fire patterns on the badges worn by these pharmacists, they are all real pharmacists.
Even true pharmacists are respected as they should be.
A pharmacist who has reached this level is not one out of a hundred.
With so many pharmacists surrounding Zhai's house, Li Yuan and the others were a little puzzled.
Li Yuan saw a pedestrian not far away, looking at the group of real pharmacists with envious and awe-inspiring eyes.
Although this person did not wear the same robe, it could be seen from the badge on his chest that he was a mortal pharmacist.
After thinking about it, Li Yuan went forward to chat with the mortal pharmacist, and got a general understanding of the ins and outs of the matter.
In recent years, Zhai Shiqing, head of the Zhai family, has been seeking medical treatment from a pharmacist, but with no improvement, the Zhai family gradually gave up.
More than half a year ago, Zhai Shixuan, the great elder of the Zhai family, took a few family members and recruited more than 300 temporary mercenaries to the Qingzhai Mountains.
After that, only Zhai Shixuan, the great elder of the Zhai family, Zhai Tao, the young patriarch of the Zhai family, and two elders came back.
Soon after returning, several elders announced to the outside world that they were retreating.
From then on, the Zhai family began to invite pharmacists from all over the world to treat Zhai Shiqing.
At the beginning, as long as ordinary pharmacists passed the examination of the Zhai family, they could also treat Zhai Shiqing.
Two days ago, the Zhai family suddenly announced that only true pharmacists and above can see a doctor for Zhai Shiqing after passing the Zhai family's review.
As long as he is an approved pharmacist, no matter whether he can cure Zhai Shiqing or not, he can receive a reward of a thousand middle-grade primordial stones.
Therefore, now only pharmacists of true rank and above can enter the Zhai family compound.
If Zhai Shiqing's illness is cured, the Zhai family will pay him a thousand high-grade primordial stones.
Thousands of high-grade primordial stones are just a small reward, and the Zhai family will present a top-grade Zongbao as a gift.
Top-grade Zongbao, unless it is a particularly unpopular ingot, the commonly used value is thousands of top-grade Yuanshi.
Not only is there a top-grade Zongbao, the Zhai family also regards it as an elder guest, and gives a thousand top-grade primordial stones every year.
Di Yuehua, Zhai Shiqing's granddaughter, personally promised that whoever could cure his grandfather's illness, no matter who, no matter how old, no matter how many wives and concubines he had, she would give her body or make her a slave.
The grandson-in-law of the patriarch of the largest family in Qingzhai City, to many people, it is like a carp leaping into the dragon's gate and soaring into the sky.
It is also a very face-saving thing to be a pharmacist who cannot be a grandson-in-law.
Di Yuehua is well-known in Qingdi City, and has the reputation of being the most beautiful woman in Qingdi City.
And the cultivation talent is quite good, and now he is only thirty one, and his cultivation has broken through to the middle stage of the Void Stepping Realm.According to this speed, it is expected to advance to the late stage of the Void Realm before the age of 35.
As far as the current situation is concerned, Li Yuan originally wanted to exchange Danjingcao for Xuanwangshen, but it seemed hopeless.
"Li Yuan, what should we do now? It's not that pharmacists can't even enter the gate. Otherwise, let's rush in and see who dares to stop us." Guan Tian's eyes stayed on the gate of Zhai's house for a long time, and he said in a solemn tone.
"Brother Guan, we are asking for Xuanwang ginseng, not grabbing it. What if they destroy Xuanwang ginseng." Li Yun gave Guan Tian a clear look, and said angrily, "I don't know why the Zhai family didn't give it to you before. Zhai Shiqing continued to see a doctor, why did he suddenly start again now?"
An embarrassing smile appeared on Guan Tian's old face, and he said: "I was reckless. This Zhai Shiqing has the cultivation base of the peak in the middle stage of the Yuan Dan Realm. Now that he is sick, isn't it the same as before I came here, a waste .
"Look, it's only been a few years, and the Zhai family is just like the other two. If Zhai Shiqing dies accidentally, the Zhai family will really lose the title of the first family in Qingdi City."
Li Yuan said with a smile: "Brother Guan, you deserve to be in the army for a long time, leading troops to fight all the year round. In a few words, I can analyze the situation clearly. It seems that I have to take the exam of a pharmacist."
He inquired about the location of the Alchemist Guild from the mortal pharmacist before him, and before leaving, he gave the alchemist a middle-grade primordial stone to express his gratitude.
It is very difficult for low-level alchemists at the beginning, and they must refine a large number of pills to improve their level.
Refining elixir requires a lot of materials, and the cost is not small.So Li Yuan gave him a medium-grade primordial stone, hoping to help him a little bit.
According to that person, the Alchemist Guild is not far from Zhai's house.
Li Yuan looked up at the sky, and decided to go to the pharmacist test first, and then Li Yunqing and Guan Tian also left from the gate of Zhai's house.
Guan Tian followed behind and said anxiously: "Li Yuan, are you going to take the pharmacist test? Digging a well when you are thirsty is not enough. They need real pharmacists."
Although he is not a pharmacist, he still knows the class of a pharmacist.
Li Yuan held his head in his hands, walked leisurely down the street, and said casually, "Then take the exam for a true pharmacist."
"True pharmacist?" Guan Tian stroked his beard, looked at Li Yunqing beside him, and pointed to Li Yuan's back, "Sister Yunqing, is Li Yuan confused? We've had a pretty easy time. , he hasn't been tired."
Li Yunqing smiled, and said softly: "Is it difficult for a true pharmacist? Don't worry, this is nothing to Xiao Yuanzi."
After finishing speaking, she quickened her pace and caught up with Li Yuan.
Looking at the backs of the two young men, Guan Tian shook his head, a little puzzled, and said to himself: "Are you all confused?"
After walking for about half an hour, turning several corners and crossing several streets, I came to a majestic building.
Looking up at the building, Li Yuan stopped slowly, touched his chin, and said, "This should be it."
In front of this extremely majestic building, there is a furnace device that is more than twenty feet high.
Li Yuan and the others passed under the furnace, their eyes resting on the plaque under the building.
The red wooden plaque shone faintly under the sunlight, and there were several simple characters written on it, Qingdi City Alchemist Guild.
Li Yuan looked around and saw that there were quite a few people going to the Alchemist Guild, so he murmured, "Could they be all alchemists?"
"Come on, let's go in." After staying for a while, Li Yuan stopped thinking about it.
The three of them followed the flow of people into the hall of the Alchemists Guild.
The hall is very spacious, but the inside is not as grand as it looks from the outside.
In fact, this hall is now equivalent to a trading market, and people are used to calling this place a trading hall.
There are many people in the alchemist guild hall, which is very noisy. They are all trading pills and materials, as well as buying and selling prescriptions. It is no different from an ordinary market.
Li Yuan found someone casually, inquired about the real place where the pharmacists were assessed, and also learned about the pharmacists' assessment.
The pharmacist assessment in Qingzhai City is held every half a month. Today is the day when the pharmacist assessment is held, so there are so many people in the trading hall.
The place where the pharmacists are assessed is at the back of the hall.
Walking to the door of the pharmacist assessment office, Li Yuan and the others were stopped by two guards at the door.
The guard on the right said more politely: "This is an important place for the examination of alchemists, and idlers are not allowed to enter. Are the three of you here for the examination of alchemists?"
Li Yuan cupped his hands to the guards, and said in a deep voice, "It's just that I'm examining the alchemist, and the two of them came with me."
"Oh, you are here to take the mortal pharmacist exam at such a young age? Do you have a pharmacist apprenticeship certificate? Or a letter of introduction from your teacher is fine." the guard asked.
Hearing this, Li Yuan was taken aback for a moment, he didn't know any alchemist apprentice certificates and letters of introduction.
Li Yunqing on the side stepped forward and asked softly: "He's taking the exam for a true pharmacist, maybe he wants these things?"
Hearing this, the two guards suddenly became amused, and the guard on the right jokingly said, "We have never seen such a young person come to be a real pharmacist."
Suddenly, a hint of anger appeared on the guard's face, and he scolded softly: "If you are here to make trouble, then don't blame us for being rude."
Li Yuan hurriedly waved his hands and said, "Both brothers, I'm really sorry. We didn't understand the process clearly. Can you tell me?"
Only then did the expressions of the two guards ease up, and they were silent for a moment, explaining the examination process for alchemists to Li Yuan and the others.
To assess the conditions for a pharmacist of ordinary rank, one needs to provide a pharmacist's apprenticeship certificate, also known as an apprenticeship certificate.
If you don't have an apprentice certificate, you can also have a letter of introduction from your own teacher. The teacher must be a registered condensed-level pharmacist.
The apprenticeship certificate assessment is not here, but on the other side of the hall.
There are two types of assessment, one is knowledge materials, and the materials are all from the materials on the "Knowledge of Medicine" in Ji Zhenyi's previous scroll.
The other is to refine the gas refining liquid.
Most of the people who take the apprenticeship test choose to refine the gas refining liquid, which is relatively easy, but it is extremely difficult to choose identification materials.
There are more than 1 materials in the "Knowledge of Medicine", and one must identify one hundred materials consecutively within three quarters, and pass the test if ninety materials are recognized correctly.
As long as you have an apprentice certificate and a letter of introduction from your teacher, you can pass the examination for a pharmacist of ordinary rank.
If you want to be a true pharmacist, you must be a mortal pharmacist registered in the pharmacist guild.
Li Yuan and the others followed the direction pointed by the guards and went to the place where the apprentice certificate was assessed.
There were no guards there, so Li Yuan and the others entered through the door, followed the instructions, walked along the long corridor on the left for a while, and came to the assessment hall.
The assessment hall is very large, with a length and width of more than [-] feet, surrounded by material cabinets as high as [-] to [-] feet. If you want to take out materials from the top, you must use a long ladder.
Many waiters and maids in uniform robes are constantly taking out materials from the material cabinet.
These people should all be members of the Alchemists Guild.
The style of the robe on his body is similar to that of a pharmacist, but the fabric is much worse.
There is a small plaque in the innermost part of the hall, which says where to get the materials, and many people are queuing up to get the materials.
The center of the hall is divided into two areas, one side occupies [-]% of the area of the hall, and hundreds of long tables are neatly arranged.
On each long table, there is a small one-foot-sized furnace tripod, which should be a low-grade Fanbao grade furnace tripod.
There are quite a few people who are refining Qi Refining Liquid.
There are complaints from time to time, coming from the area where the gas refining liquid is refined, it should be that someone failed to refine it.
Although there are many people participating in the assessment, the pass rate is not high.
On the other side of the center of the hall is the rest and waiting area, which is full of people at the moment.
There is also a small area at the front, which is the examination area for identifying materials.
Li Yunqing and Guan Tian found a place to sit down and rest in the waiting area, while Li Yuan went to the assessment area for identification materials.
There is not a single examiner in the examination area for identifying materials, and in such a noisy environment, the maid for the examination was sleeping soundly lying on the table.
Li Yuan knocked on the table with his backhand, and asked very politely: "Excuse me, is the identification material assessed here?"
The maid was awakened, rubbed her hazy eyes, and replied casually: "Yes."
"Sign up for me. I need to identify the materials and examine the apprenticeship certificate." Li Yuan said.
"Okay." The maid nodded. The next moment, she seemed to think of something. She quickly raised her head and looked at Li Yuan with strange eyes. "You said you want to sign up for identification materials."
At this moment, Li Yuan was a little annoyed. Yuan force gushed out of his body, and the strong fluctuations of Yuan force produced coercion, which made the maid who was only at the beginning of the Yuan force realm feel a little overwhelmed.
"I want to examine the identification materials, you understand." Li Yuan put away his coercion, lowered his voice as much as possible, and said to the maid.
Beads of hot sweat gushed out from the maid's forehead, and she didn't dare to be negligent. She quickly registered Li Yuan, opened an energy light curtain, and invited Li Yuan to do the assessment of identification materials.
In the Apprentice Certificate Examination Hall, there are basically no primordial practitioners who have cultivated in the Void Stepping Realm. The primordial practitioners who come here for the assessment are generally in the Qi Refining Realm and Primal Force Realm.
The coercion of Yuanli fluctuations exuded by Li Yuan made the maid understand that this handsome young man's cultivation base is much higher than hers.
At this time, pictures of alchemy materials appeared continuously on the energy light curtain, and Li Yuan passed by in a flash.
The above materials are all from the "Knowledge of Medicine" in Ji Zhenyi's scroll.
"Knowledge Medicine" contains more than 1 materials from the first-level materials to the fourth-level materials.
If you want to pass the assessment of identifying materials, you need to memorize more than 1 materials. This is a huge project, and it is much more difficult than refining gas and liquid.
Li Yuan had already grasped all the materials in the "Knowledge of Medicine" in his mind, including thousands of prescriptions.
Since there are no qualified candidates to participate in the assessment of identification materials, there is no need to queue up for registration for identification materials, which saves a lot of time.
Before the maid had fully recovered from the fear just now, Li Yuan had already identified a hundred kinds of materials without any mistakes.
The maid looked at Li Yuan with eyes like a monster.
Suddenly, her gaze collided with Li Yuan's fierce gaze, and she just realized that she immediately checked the registration of Li Yuan's identification materials.
After confirming that there was no problem, he took out a piece of animal skin the size of a palm, wrote some information briefly on it, and finally stamped the unique mark of the Alchemist Guild on the animal skin.
"Congratulations, my lord, you have passed the examination. This is your apprentice certificate. With this certificate, you can go to the examination of a mortal pharmacist." The maid smiled and handed the animal skin to Li Yuan respectfully.
Generally speaking, one who has passed the apprenticeship assessment cannot be regarded as a real pharmacist.
He can only refine qi-refining liquid, and some beginner Fan Dan can also try it, barely counting as half a pharmacist.
With the certificate, you can join the forces that recruit alchemist apprentices and get a good income.
Compared with other Yuan people, not only has an extra income, but also is more respected and has a noble status, so the maid calls Li Yuanzun an adult.
Li Yuan took the animal skin, nodded politely, turned around and walked towards the waiting area.
The maid was a little dazed looking at the tall and tall background that was fading away.
People who passed the apprenticeship assessment generally showed ecstasy, excitement, and excitement, but this one acted as if he had never participated in the assessment, without any emotional fluctuations.
Seeing Li Yuan approaching, Guan Tian sighed, and then smiled and comforted him: "Li Yuan, it's okay if you haven't passed the exam, let's find another way to enter Zhai's house.
"Even if you pass the apprenticeship assessment, you still have to take the ordinary-level pharmacist exam. After passing the assessment, you can take the real-level pharmacist exam. It's too troublesome."
Li Yuan glanced around, threw the animal skin in his hand to Guan Tian, and said indifferently: "Come on, let's go to take the test of mortal pharmacist now."
Guan Tian raised his palm and put the animal skin firmly in his hand.
"Let me just say, Xiao Yuanzi is a top pharmacist, and his apprenticeship certificate is just for passing through the motions. Brother Guan, you still don't believe me." Li Yunqing raised his head and said excitedly, and immediately took Li Yuan's arm and walked towards the hall Export away.
Staring at the animal skin in his palm, Guan Tian secretly said in disbelief, "How long did it take to pass, so easy?"
Not long after, the three of them came to the entrance of the previous alchemist assessment, and one of the guards said impatiently: "I said, why are you here again? Didn't I make it clear to you just now? If you want to go in, you have to get an apprentice certificate, or a letter of introduction from the teacher."
Li Yuan bowed his head and said, "Brother Guan, please give them your ID."
Guan Tian nodded, and handed the animal skin to the guard.
Seeing the animal skin that Guan Tian handed over, the guard checked it carefully, and passed it to the guard next to him. The two guards observed for a long time before confirming that the certificate was genuine.
The guard who checked the certificate later showed suspicion on his face, but he was not sure, so he asked weakly: "Little brother, did you just take this apprenticeship certificate?"
"What? Is there something wrong with the certificate? Or does it mean that after taking the apprenticeship certificate test today, you can no longer test the mortal pharmacist?" Li Yuan raised his eyebrows and asked in a cold voice.
The guard said embarrassingly: "Yes, there is no problem with your ID, you can go in. But these two can only wait outside."
Li Yuan said a few words to Li Yunqing and Guan Tian, and then walked into the gate guarded by two guards.
Entering the gate, there is a straight and wide corridor. There are several furnace devices on both sides of the corridor, the height of which is about the same as Li Yuan's.
At the end of the wide corridor is the examination alchemist hall.
The alchemist assessment hall is larger than the previous apprentice certificate assessment hall, and the decoration is obviously richer and simpler.
The windows on the surrounding walls are relatively small, and the light projected from the outside is not enough to illuminate the hall, so the lights around the hall are relatively dim.
Dozens of large lamps are erected in the center of the hall, and the dancing flames in the lampshade can still be seen, so the central area is well lit.
There are several pilasters on the walls on both sides, and there are huge pictures carved between the pilasters, all of which are precious and high-grade materials.
Each pilaster has a chi head to sprinkle water, and the water flows along the trough under the pilaster to form a stream, which meanders and flows to the pool in the center of the hall.
There are ten quaint long tables on both sides of the pool. The tabletops are very clean and there are no items on them.
There is a section of steps in the innermost part of the hall, about twenty or thirty steps.
At the top of the steps is a spacious platform with several mortise and tenon structure Yunliyuan wood seats, which is very grand.
A corner stood surrounded by more than a dozen people. From their conversations, it could be known that they also came to participate in the alchemist examination.
Except for the concentration of people there, there are not many figures in other parts of the hall, only a few people scattered everywhere, each quietly doing what they are doing at hand.
These are alchemists, and their clothes are no different from those seen at the gate of Zhai's house.
Although there are nearly 30 people in the hall, it is not enough to support the popularity of the spacious hall, which is a little deserted.
Li Yuan didn't know how to carry out the next process. After observing the surrounding environment, he shook his head helplessly, feeling a little embarrassed.
After thinking for a moment, he decided to ask someone casually first.
Just as Li Yuan was looking around, looking for the target, a woman in the robe of an alchemist walked over quickly.
There is only one fire pattern on the badge worn on the chest, which should be a mortal pharmacist.
"Hello, sir, are you here to examine the alchemist?"
After looking around at Li Yuan, the woman asked with a smile.
Li Yuan looked at the woman, judging from the energy fluctuations and breath of life emanating from her body, she was around 30 years old at the beginning of the Void Stepping Stage, and he couldn't see whether there was a bone in her body.
To be able to accurately see whether a person has a bone or not, it usually needs to be higher than two realms.
For example, to be able to clearly know whether Li Yuan has a bone in his body now, at least he must be in the Nirvana state, and the Nirvana state must be perfect.
If one wanted to tell what kind of bone a primordial person possessed, it generally had to be higher than three realms.
The alchemist's robe was worn on the woman's body, and it looked a little loose, but it still couldn't completely cover the exquisite figure under the robe.
"En." Li Yuan nodded politely, and then asked, "Are you from the guild?"
The woman smiled and said: "Yes. My name is Han Zishu, and Han Xuyang, the president of the alchemist guild in Qingzhai City, is my grandfather, so I also work in the guild.
"I'm not showing off. All the alchemists in Qingdi City know about it, so I said it in advance to avoid any misunderstanding later. Even if my grandfather is the guild leader, I won't receive much care because of it."
"Miss Han is a straightforward person." Li Yuan said with a smile.
Han Zishu's beautiful eyes swept over Li Yuan again, blinked, and said softly: "I think Mr. is born, he should be a few years younger than me.
"Among the younger generation in Qingdi City, I basically know all those who can come here to assess ordinary alchemists. Is this your first time coming to our alchemist guild in Qingdi City?"
Li Yuan nodded and said: "I am indeed here for the first time. Today I want to obtain a badge of alchemist. Can you tell me what I will do next? What procedures will I have to follow? Is it complicated?"
"It's not complicated, just register. I'm going there just now, so come with me." Han Zishu said.
Li Yuan nodded slightly, and walked side by side with Han Zishu.
Han Zishu took Li Yuan to a counter in front of the hall.
"Sister Su, this gentleman is here to take the exam to be a pharmacist, please help me to register." Han Zishu said to a woman who was also wearing the robe of a pharmacist at the counter.
The woman whom Han Zishu called Sister Su looked at Li Yuan several times, and joked, "Hey, Zishu personally guides you today.
"This little gentleman is very good-looking, handsome and upright, and suave. It just looks a little strange, how did you know each other, and you still keep it from us. Why? I'm afraid that my sister will snatch it from you."
Han Zishu's face turned red when he heard this, and hurriedly said, "Sister Su, what are you talking about. We met at the door just now. I don't even know his name."
Li Yuan on the side touched his head and smiled awkwardly.
"It's boring. Well, I won't tease you anymore." The woman shrugged her shoulders, pursed her mouth, and then looked at Li Yuan with a smile, "Mr. Xiao, what's your name? How old are you? Your teacher you Who? Show me the letter of introduction."
Li Yuan replied with a smile: "Li Yuan, 26 years old."
He paused, shrugged helplessly, and continued: "Sister Su, I don't have a teacher, so I don't have a letter of introduction. However, I just took an apprenticeship certificate there. This is okay."
Li Yuan followed Han Zishu and called the woman Sister Su, and at the same time put the animal skin certificate on the counter.
Hearing this, Han Zishu and Sister Su were obviously startled at the same time.
Sister Su picked up the certificate Li Yuan put on the counter and examined it carefully.
There is no problem with the certificate. It was indeed just received. She immediately coughed dryly and said, "The certificate can take part in the pharmacist assessment. You don't even have a teacher, but you can pass the apprentice assessment. I really don't know if you are lucky, or you are really practicing There is talent in medicine."
Sister Su was registering in a quaint book while talking.
"Li Yuan, do you really have no teacher? My grandfather is a condensed pharmacist. How about you learn how to make medicine with my grandfather? Let him be your teacher." Han Zishu said a little excitedly.
While registering, Sister Su half-jokingly said: "You let him follow your grandfather and be your grandfather's disciple. Then what should you call him? Is it his name, or is it Shishu?"
"Sister Su, I'm serious, okay?" Han Zishu stomped his feet.
"Okay, I'm just joking with you. The assessment is about to start. After the examination is over, you can discuss it with him." Sister Su raised her hand.
"Li Yuan, the assessment is about to start. There are ordinary low-grade Fanbao furnaces over there. Make a note, and someone will put the furnace on the long table for your assessment. Of course, if you have a better furnace, you can Use your own." Sister Su looked at Li Yuan.
Li Yuan looked at the cauldron placed next to him. It was better than the cauldron he used to refine the gas refining liquid, that's all.
"I'll just use myself." Li Yuan looked away from those furnaces.
Sister Su nodded lightly, and asked again: "Are you practicing the fire attribute technique? If not, do you need to rent the fire element earth spirit? The cheapest one only needs five low-grade primordial stones."
Li Yuan looked at Sister Su, who looked like a businessman, and it seemed that she had done a lot of selling land spirits.
"Li Yuan, regardless of whether you practice fire-attribute exercises or not, you should rent a fire-element earth spirit. It can save energy. When refining medicine, you won't be too distracted. This way the rate of alchemy will be higher and it will be easier to pass assessment."
Han Zishu mentioned that the fire-type earth spirit can help the pharmacist and make it easier for Li Yuan to pass the exam. What he said was his own experience and gave some suggestions.
Li Yuan thought for a while and touched the center of his brow.
Nine-color flames can be produced in the Qiankun Cauldron, which is the best flame for refining medicine, but it is also easy to expose this treasure.
It's not impossible to use fire-type earth spirits to cover people's eyes and ears.
"Okay." Li Yuan nodded, pondered for a while, and then asked, "Sister Su, how many primeval stones do you need to rent the best fire-element earth spirit here?"
Hearing this, Sister Su's eyes lit up immediately, she seemed to be entertaining, suppressed the joy in her heart, and introduced: "The best fire-element earth spirit here is Jin Yanniao, which needs ten middle-grade primordial stones.
"It will only be used in refining condensed pills. You are assessing a mortal alchemist, and what you are refining is mortal pills. Ordinary fire-type earth spirits are enough. The flame intensity of the Jinyan Bird is too high, at least Zongbao-level Only the furnace can bear it."
Li Yuan flicked his fingers, and ten middle-grade primordial stones appeared on the counter out of thin air, and he said in a deep voice, "My furnace cauldron happens to be a Zongbao, and a Jinyan bird is suitable. Sister Su can help me rent a Jinyan." Bird."
Han Zishu and Sister Su's eyes widened at the same time, their faces were obviously excited, and their bodies were still trembling slightly.
The ten middle-grade primordial stones are just for renting the fire element earth spirit.
The most frightening thing is that Li Yuan said that he used a furnace tripod of Zongbao level.
One must know that the lowest quality Zongbao furnace tripod is also worth hundreds of thousands of middle-grade primordial stones.
Li Yuan found that the two hadn't responded for a long time, so he coughed twice and asked, "Sister Su, what are the next steps? Where can Jin Yanniao get it?"
When Sister Su heard Li Yuan's question, she came back to her senses, calmed down, and responded with a slightly trembling voice: "There is no procedure, your position is facing the stairs in the hall, table No. [-] on the right.
"As for the refined pill, the invigilator will announce it later. The material will be sent to your place by a special person, and Jin Yanniao will take it directly. You can wait at your place now. Go down the steps here and take the test It's time to start."
While Sister Su was speaking, she pointed to the steps on the right.
Li Yuan bowed respectfully to Sister Su, nodded to Han Zishu beside him, and then went to the examination area.
.........
The mortal pharmacist assessment is about to begin.
A dozen or so figures clustered around the corner of the hall slowly dispersed and walked to their respective positions.
Sister Su wrote something on a piece of paper, took a stamp from the shelf behind the counter, and stamped it.
Holding the stamped paper and looking carefully, Sister Su waved to the waiter next to her and said, "Hanyu, send the information of this newcomer to the two presidents. Hurry up, the assessment will be soon." That's it."
The waiter named Hanyu didn't dare to neglect for a moment, and ran inside with the information.
Li Yuan went down the stairs all the way, bypassed the creek in the central area, and came to table No. [-] in the assessment area.
Looking around, he found that more than a dozen examiners were using free furnaces to refine medicine, but his desk was empty.
Judging from the fluctuations in the origin force of these assessors, all of them are practicing fire-attribute exercises, and their cultivation bases are all in the early and middle stages of the origin force realm.
Most of them are about the same age as him except for a few who are older.
The gazes of several women participating in the pharmacist assessment all glanced over Li Yuan from time to time.
Naturally, they couldn't see Li Yuan's cultivation based on their cultivation, not to mention that they didn't want to investigate his cultivation, and the focus of attention was on Li Yuan's appearance.
There is nothing to say about Li Yuan's appearance, the jade tree faces the wind, fresh and handsome.
Being stared at by so many strange eyes, it was like looking at a monster, which made Li Yuan a little embarrassed, so he tried his best to avoid those eyes looking at him and not intertwined with them.
Just trying to find a way to alleviate this embarrassing situation, the hall suddenly fell silent.
The eyes of all the primordial beings moved away from him, and fell on the passage on the right side of the stairs ahead.
Li Yuan hurriedly called out the Qiankun Ding and put it on the table.
Reduce the grade of Qiankun Ding to Zongbao level, and the appearance of Qiankun Ding at this time is red.
Zongbao-level furnaces are much larger than Fanbao furnaces, with the widest point being two feet wide.
Compared with the stoves on the desks of other examiners, they should be noticed. After all, the widest part of those stoves is only half of the stove on Li Yuan's desk.
Although the red cauldron is conspicuous, no one else is paying attention at the moment, all eyes are on the passage on the right side of the stairs ahead.
Not long after, two old men came out from the passage, also wearing the robes of pharmacists, with three fire patterns on the badges on their chests, both of them were condensed pharmacists.
As soon as the two appeared, the audience burst into cheers.
Judging from the respectful titles these people gave to the two old men, they should be the president and vice president of the Alchemist Association of Qingzhai City.
One of the white-haired old men, from his appearance, Li Yuan could tell at a glance that he was the chairman, Han Xuyang, because Han Zishu's appearance was somewhat similar to him.
Another gray-haired, slightly thinner old man is the vice president Ren Yanchen.
Han Xuyang and Ren Yanchen walked to the center of the platform, and when they were about to wave to the examiners, their eyes fell on the stove on Li Yuan's desk.
"Extreme Zongbao Furnace!" Han Xuyang and Ren Yanchen exclaimed at the same time.
Although I don't know the name of the cauldron in front of Li Yuan, but after all, he is a high-level pharmacist with a lot of experience, so he can know the quality of the cauldron just by looking at it from a distance.
As condensed-rank pharmacists, the two of them naturally also used Zongbao-rank furnaces, but they were both middle-grade Zongbao, worth hundreds of high-grade primordial stones.
The top-grade Zongbao furnace cauldron in front of Li Yuan was impossible to buy without tens of thousands of high-grade primordial stones.
Moreover, this level of furnace cauldron cannot be measured with primordial stones.
If the cauldron had already shocked them, then when their eyes fell on Li Yuan, the two of them opened their mouths wide at the same time, their eyes widened, and they were a little panicked.
26 years old, at the peak of the late stage of the Void Stepping Realm.
They have never seen this age and cultivation level before.
Questions arose in both of their hearts at the same time.
The young man in front of him should not be from Yuanzhou.
Either from the capital.
Either from outside the Great Xia Dynasty.
After a while, Han Xuyang and Ren Yanchen came back to their senses, looked at each other, nodded at the same time, and stroked their beards.
The people below saw that the two presidents lost their composure. At this moment, they all turned their attention to Li Yuan's position.
Only then did they notice the furnace on Li Yuan's table. Although they couldn't tell what the quality of the furnace was, it was definitely much higher quality than the one they used.
However, they did not lose their composure like the two presidents did, but their eyes were full of envy.
At this time, a mortal alchemist man came to Li Yuan's location with an earth spirit.
The land spirit is covered with golden and fire-colored feathers, with a slender neck, a small head, and a long, flat mouth.
The huge mouth is somewhat incongruous with the small head. The body length is seven or eight feet, and the legs are more than half a foot long, making this bird more than one foot tall.
"Jinyan bird!"
Suddenly, a surprised voice came from among the examiners.
Hearing this, other examiners also looked at Jin Yanniao with surprised eyes.
Although they had heard that the Alchemist Guild raised a Jin Yan bird, they had never seen it before. Today was an eye-opener.
The examination area by the central pool was in chaos, and all the examiners made a lot of noise.
Li Yuan looked at the Jin Yanniao in front of him, and then chatted with the pharmacist to understand how to use Jin Yanniao.
After understanding everything clearly, he bowed his hands to the pharmacist, who also bowed his hands in return, and the latter left the examination area.
Looking back, Li Yuan rubbed his head and smiled awkwardly as he intertwined the eyes of those assessors.
He suddenly realized that it was a little too ostentatious.
Scanning the chaotic situation below, Han Xuyang's face became serious, he waved his hand downward, coughed a few times, and said loudly: "Okay, everyone returns to their positions."
Hearing the chairman's voice, all the assessors behaved a little better and quickly returned to their respective positions.
After all the examiners returned to their positions, Han Xuyang and Ren Yanchen nodded to each other. Ren Yanchen clenched his fist with his right hand, put it in front of his mouth, coughed twice, cleared his throat, and said in a loud voice: "The pharmacist assessment is about to begin, and I will announce it now." rule."
At this moment, the hall was silent, and then, Ren Yanchen's slightly aged voice echoed in the hall.
Except for Li Yuan, all the assessors below have taken the test several times and are quite familiar with the rules.
Before the alchemist assessment begins, reading out the rules is a fixed procedure.
According to Ren Yanchen's introduction, in the examination of ordinary pharmacists, it takes two sticks of incense to refine elixir, almost two hours.
The big incense that recorded the time was inserted in the incense vessel not far in front of Ren Yanchen, and the examiners could see it by looking up.
There is a big bell in the center above the hall. When the incense is lit, the big bell will ring at the same time to indicate the start of the assessment.
After the second stick of incense was burned out, the big bell was rung again to signify the end of the assessment.
The pills refined in the assessment are all ordinary and low-grade vanilla pills, and they are all the most common pills, and the less popular pills will not be assessed.
Specifically what kind of pill each examiner refines, before the official assessment, the alchemists of the Alchemist Association will bring the lottery tubes with the names of the pills to each examiner one by one, and the examiners will draw lots to decide which one to refine. Elixir.
The elixir on each stake is different, so all the examiners can only rely on their own experience to refine the elixir, and it is impossible to observe and learn on the spot.
After all, the refining method, the order of placing the materials, and the refining time are different for each type of elixir.
What kind of elixir each assessor specifically refines depends on some luck. If a simple elixir is drawn, the chance of passing will be greatly increased.
For the inferior Fandan, the most difficult to refine is Yanlidan, but Li Yuan can refine it with his eyes closed.
Even if you have never refined unpopular elixir, there are only prescriptions and no elixir, there is no problem in front of a pharmacist who has refined a large number of three grains into the void pills.
As long as you refine a pill of Yiwen quality, you can pass the test and get the badge of a mortal pharmacist.
For the examination of ordinary pharmacists, the materials for refining pills are provided by the guild. No matter whether the refining is successful or not, there is no need to pay any fees. This is also the guild's intention to encourage everyone.
If any pill is successfully refined, the pill will be owned by the guild.
Of course, if the pharmacist wants to take the elixir, he can convert it into the corresponding market price according to the quality of the elixir, and then buy it at half price.
Most of the assessors will buy the elixir they refined. After all, this is the elixir refined during the assessment, and it is quite commemorative to become a real pharmacist.
(End of this chapter)
Going deep into the forest, the trees are tall and lush, and the light is getting darker and darker.
"Just here."
Suddenly stopped, Li Yuan looked around, nodded in satisfaction, and said something to Guan Tian.
There was no expression on Guan Tian's old face, he just nodded slightly.
Li Yuan and the others turned around and looked at Duan Libo and Duan Libo who were following.
At this moment, Duan Libo's two footsteps paused slightly, and they were slightly surprised that Li Yuan and the other found them.
They felt that with Li Yuan and his cultivation, it was impossible to find their whereabouts.
Duan Libo and Xue Han continued to walk towards Li Yuan and the others, and stopped when there were still more than twenty steps away.
Duan Libo, with indifferent eyes, said in an extremely cold voice: "Unexpectedly, in less than two years, you have broken through to this level of cultivation. The speed of the cultivation of the dragon bone is really amazing. Presumably this little girl has the Yuan in her body. Bone, the level is not weaker than the dragon bone."
"Thanks to the two elders of the Ma family, we didn't let you down." Li Yuan's eyes intertwined with Duan Libo's and Xue Han's, and he said immediately, "Although our cultivation base has improved rapidly, the day we step into the Yuandan realm , I don’t know if I can still see the two of you, they don’t have much lifespan left after all.”
Hearing this, Duan Libo's and his two's expressions darkened, these words angered them.
"It seems that you know quite a lot. That's all, let's stop here for what bones you have now. Elder Xue, do it." Duan Libo sternly said.
Seeing Li Yuan and the others were not afraid. In order to prevent more variables, Duan Libo was obviously not interested in how Li Yuan knew their identities at the moment, so he just killed them.
Two long swords appeared out of nowhere in the hands of Duan Libo and Xue Han, and then shot at Li Yuan and the others at the same time.
At the moment when he swung the long sword, suddenly, a strong coercion of his cultivation directly imprisoned Duan Libo and the two of them, unable to move for a moment.
The two froze there, as quiet as dead people, unable to even move their eyes.
Li Yuan was expressionless, and said indifferently: "Brother Guan, kill him directly."
Guan Tian nodded, and glanced at Duan Libo and Duan Libo who were more than [-] steps away in front of them. Suddenly, the latter's body began to collapse.
A moment later, the bodies of Duan Libo and Xue Han split into countless pieces and a pool of blood.
Li Yuan glanced at the blood on the ground, then raised his palm lightly, absorbing the two Yun rings and the two long swords into his hands.
Without looking at it, he put away the Yun ring directly, and put the two long swords into his Yun ring.
At this moment, Li Yunqing looked at the blood on the ground in front of him and was extremely shocked.
Duan Libo and Xue Han are both at the early stage of the Yuandan realm, so how could they be so vulnerable in front of Guan Tian.
Guan Tian's current strength is too strong.
Li Yuan looked at Li Yunqing who was stunned, touched her head, and said in a low voice: "Little aunt, we should go. After living in the mountains for more than half a year, I can finally take a good bath and sleep well tonight. . to welcome the new day with energy.”
"Aren't we going to Qingdi City today?" Li Yunqing asked softly after regaining his senses.
Li Yuan, who had already walked away, raised his hands high, in a good mood, and shouted loudly: "There is no rush for a day and a half. I will go tomorrow. What are you doing standing there? Let's go."
Hearing this, Li Yunqing strode to follow, deliberately avoiding the blood on the ground, Guan Tian also followed closely.
.........
On the second day, the sun seemed to be much milder than yesterday, Li Yuan and the others did not come out of the inn until noon.
As soon as he reached the door of the inn, Li Yuan turned back again.
Ask the innkeeper if you can take giant wing birds and snow cloud sculptures in the town, but you can't, but there are places to rent beast carts.
According to the route given by the innkeeper, Li Yuan and the others quickly found a place to rent a beast cart.
Li Yuan and Li Yunqing had never driven a beast cart before, so this matter had to be done by Guan Tian in the end.
He drove the beast cart without stopping all the way, and rushed to Qingdi City before dark.
Qingdi City is the sixth largest city in Yuanzhou, smaller than Yangyan City, with 2000 million residents living in the city.
The base camp of the garrison guarding the city was not in Qingdi City, but Chaoming City, a small town thirty miles east of the city.
There are three major families in Qingdi City, namely the Zhai family, Wei family and Shi family who robbed Dan Jingcao before.
The Zhai family is the most powerful and is the oldest family in Qingdi City. It has always existed since the beginning of Qingdi City's construction.
The Wei and Shi families are evenly matched in strength, slightly weaker than the Zhai family.
A few years ago, Zhai Shiqing, the head of the Zhai family, was seriously ill and hadn't appeared in public for a long time.
Therefore, the strength of the Zhai family has declined in the past few years. In Qingdi City today, the three major families have the potential to stand on top of each other.
Entering the city and returning the beast cart, it was already completely dark.
At the beginning of the Chinese lanterns, the lights are bright.
Li Yuan decided to go to Zhai's house tomorrow morning in exchange for King Xuan Ginseng.
.........
The next morning.
Guan Tian took Li Yuan and the two to Zhai's house.
He knows the location of the Zhai family very well, it can be said that he knows better than the members of the Zhai family.
He has been there many times for Xuanwang Ginseng before.
As soon as you entered the street where the Zhai family compound was located, you could feel the momentum of the Zhai family mansion, and people couldn't help admiring that it was indeed the largest family in Qingzhai.
Before the few people reached the gate of Zhai's house, they were attracted by the noise coming from the gate.
I got closer and took a closer look. Many of them were pharmacists wearing the uniform of the guild of pharmacists.
The robes are mainly dark brown with dark green patterns, and the collar and sleeves are decorated with gold patterns.
There is also a dark green furnace-shaped badge on the chest, with fire patterns lingering on the furnace badge, and the rank of the alchemist can be seen from the number of fire patterns.
Judging from the number of fire patterns on the badges worn by these pharmacists, they are all real pharmacists.
Even true pharmacists are respected as they should be.
A pharmacist who has reached this level is not one out of a hundred.
With so many pharmacists surrounding Zhai's house, Li Yuan and the others were a little puzzled.
Li Yuan saw a pedestrian not far away, looking at the group of real pharmacists with envious and awe-inspiring eyes.
Although this person did not wear the same robe, it could be seen from the badge on his chest that he was a mortal pharmacist.
After thinking about it, Li Yuan went forward to chat with the mortal pharmacist, and got a general understanding of the ins and outs of the matter.
In recent years, Zhai Shiqing, head of the Zhai family, has been seeking medical treatment from a pharmacist, but with no improvement, the Zhai family gradually gave up.
More than half a year ago, Zhai Shixuan, the great elder of the Zhai family, took a few family members and recruited more than 300 temporary mercenaries to the Qingzhai Mountains.
After that, only Zhai Shixuan, the great elder of the Zhai family, Zhai Tao, the young patriarch of the Zhai family, and two elders came back.
Soon after returning, several elders announced to the outside world that they were retreating.
From then on, the Zhai family began to invite pharmacists from all over the world to treat Zhai Shiqing.
At the beginning, as long as ordinary pharmacists passed the examination of the Zhai family, they could also treat Zhai Shiqing.
Two days ago, the Zhai family suddenly announced that only true pharmacists and above can see a doctor for Zhai Shiqing after passing the Zhai family's review.
As long as he is an approved pharmacist, no matter whether he can cure Zhai Shiqing or not, he can receive a reward of a thousand middle-grade primordial stones.
Therefore, now only pharmacists of true rank and above can enter the Zhai family compound.
If Zhai Shiqing's illness is cured, the Zhai family will pay him a thousand high-grade primordial stones.
Thousands of high-grade primordial stones are just a small reward, and the Zhai family will present a top-grade Zongbao as a gift.
Top-grade Zongbao, unless it is a particularly unpopular ingot, the commonly used value is thousands of top-grade Yuanshi.
Not only is there a top-grade Zongbao, the Zhai family also regards it as an elder guest, and gives a thousand top-grade primordial stones every year.
Di Yuehua, Zhai Shiqing's granddaughter, personally promised that whoever could cure his grandfather's illness, no matter who, no matter how old, no matter how many wives and concubines he had, she would give her body or make her a slave.
The grandson-in-law of the patriarch of the largest family in Qingzhai City, to many people, it is like a carp leaping into the dragon's gate and soaring into the sky.
It is also a very face-saving thing to be a pharmacist who cannot be a grandson-in-law.
Di Yuehua is well-known in Qingdi City, and has the reputation of being the most beautiful woman in Qingdi City.
And the cultivation talent is quite good, and now he is only thirty one, and his cultivation has broken through to the middle stage of the Void Stepping Realm.According to this speed, it is expected to advance to the late stage of the Void Realm before the age of 35.
As far as the current situation is concerned, Li Yuan originally wanted to exchange Danjingcao for Xuanwangshen, but it seemed hopeless.
"Li Yuan, what should we do now? It's not that pharmacists can't even enter the gate. Otherwise, let's rush in and see who dares to stop us." Guan Tian's eyes stayed on the gate of Zhai's house for a long time, and he said in a solemn tone.
"Brother Guan, we are asking for Xuanwang ginseng, not grabbing it. What if they destroy Xuanwang ginseng." Li Yun gave Guan Tian a clear look, and said angrily, "I don't know why the Zhai family didn't give it to you before. Zhai Shiqing continued to see a doctor, why did he suddenly start again now?"
An embarrassing smile appeared on Guan Tian's old face, and he said: "I was reckless. This Zhai Shiqing has the cultivation base of the peak in the middle stage of the Yuan Dan Realm. Now that he is sick, isn't it the same as before I came here, a waste .
"Look, it's only been a few years, and the Zhai family is just like the other two. If Zhai Shiqing dies accidentally, the Zhai family will really lose the title of the first family in Qingdi City."
Li Yuan said with a smile: "Brother Guan, you deserve to be in the army for a long time, leading troops to fight all the year round. In a few words, I can analyze the situation clearly. It seems that I have to take the exam of a pharmacist."
He inquired about the location of the Alchemist Guild from the mortal pharmacist before him, and before leaving, he gave the alchemist a middle-grade primordial stone to express his gratitude.
It is very difficult for low-level alchemists at the beginning, and they must refine a large number of pills to improve their level.
Refining elixir requires a lot of materials, and the cost is not small.So Li Yuan gave him a medium-grade primordial stone, hoping to help him a little bit.
According to that person, the Alchemist Guild is not far from Zhai's house.
Li Yuan looked up at the sky, and decided to go to the pharmacist test first, and then Li Yunqing and Guan Tian also left from the gate of Zhai's house.
Guan Tian followed behind and said anxiously: "Li Yuan, are you going to take the pharmacist test? Digging a well when you are thirsty is not enough. They need real pharmacists."
Although he is not a pharmacist, he still knows the class of a pharmacist.
Li Yuan held his head in his hands, walked leisurely down the street, and said casually, "Then take the exam for a true pharmacist."
"True pharmacist?" Guan Tian stroked his beard, looked at Li Yunqing beside him, and pointed to Li Yuan's back, "Sister Yunqing, is Li Yuan confused? We've had a pretty easy time. , he hasn't been tired."
Li Yunqing smiled, and said softly: "Is it difficult for a true pharmacist? Don't worry, this is nothing to Xiao Yuanzi."
After finishing speaking, she quickened her pace and caught up with Li Yuan.
Looking at the backs of the two young men, Guan Tian shook his head, a little puzzled, and said to himself: "Are you all confused?"
After walking for about half an hour, turning several corners and crossing several streets, I came to a majestic building.
Looking up at the building, Li Yuan stopped slowly, touched his chin, and said, "This should be it."
In front of this extremely majestic building, there is a furnace device that is more than twenty feet high.
Li Yuan and the others passed under the furnace, their eyes resting on the plaque under the building.
The red wooden plaque shone faintly under the sunlight, and there were several simple characters written on it, Qingdi City Alchemist Guild.
Li Yuan looked around and saw that there were quite a few people going to the Alchemist Guild, so he murmured, "Could they be all alchemists?"
"Come on, let's go in." After staying for a while, Li Yuan stopped thinking about it.
The three of them followed the flow of people into the hall of the Alchemists Guild.
The hall is very spacious, but the inside is not as grand as it looks from the outside.
In fact, this hall is now equivalent to a trading market, and people are used to calling this place a trading hall.
There are many people in the alchemist guild hall, which is very noisy. They are all trading pills and materials, as well as buying and selling prescriptions. It is no different from an ordinary market.
Li Yuan found someone casually, inquired about the real place where the pharmacists were assessed, and also learned about the pharmacists' assessment.
The pharmacist assessment in Qingzhai City is held every half a month. Today is the day when the pharmacist assessment is held, so there are so many people in the trading hall.
The place where the pharmacists are assessed is at the back of the hall.
Walking to the door of the pharmacist assessment office, Li Yuan and the others were stopped by two guards at the door.
The guard on the right said more politely: "This is an important place for the examination of alchemists, and idlers are not allowed to enter. Are the three of you here for the examination of alchemists?"
Li Yuan cupped his hands to the guards, and said in a deep voice, "It's just that I'm examining the alchemist, and the two of them came with me."
"Oh, you are here to take the mortal pharmacist exam at such a young age? Do you have a pharmacist apprenticeship certificate? Or a letter of introduction from your teacher is fine." the guard asked.
Hearing this, Li Yuan was taken aback for a moment, he didn't know any alchemist apprentice certificates and letters of introduction.
Li Yunqing on the side stepped forward and asked softly: "He's taking the exam for a true pharmacist, maybe he wants these things?"
Hearing this, the two guards suddenly became amused, and the guard on the right jokingly said, "We have never seen such a young person come to be a real pharmacist."
Suddenly, a hint of anger appeared on the guard's face, and he scolded softly: "If you are here to make trouble, then don't blame us for being rude."
Li Yuan hurriedly waved his hands and said, "Both brothers, I'm really sorry. We didn't understand the process clearly. Can you tell me?"
Only then did the expressions of the two guards ease up, and they were silent for a moment, explaining the examination process for alchemists to Li Yuan and the others.
To assess the conditions for a pharmacist of ordinary rank, one needs to provide a pharmacist's apprenticeship certificate, also known as an apprenticeship certificate.
If you don't have an apprentice certificate, you can also have a letter of introduction from your own teacher. The teacher must be a registered condensed-level pharmacist.
The apprenticeship certificate assessment is not here, but on the other side of the hall.
There are two types of assessment, one is knowledge materials, and the materials are all from the materials on the "Knowledge of Medicine" in Ji Zhenyi's previous scroll.
The other is to refine the gas refining liquid.
Most of the people who take the apprenticeship test choose to refine the gas refining liquid, which is relatively easy, but it is extremely difficult to choose identification materials.
There are more than 1 materials in the "Knowledge of Medicine", and one must identify one hundred materials consecutively within three quarters, and pass the test if ninety materials are recognized correctly.
As long as you have an apprentice certificate and a letter of introduction from your teacher, you can pass the examination for a pharmacist of ordinary rank.
If you want to be a true pharmacist, you must be a mortal pharmacist registered in the pharmacist guild.
Li Yuan and the others followed the direction pointed by the guards and went to the place where the apprentice certificate was assessed.
There were no guards there, so Li Yuan and the others entered through the door, followed the instructions, walked along the long corridor on the left for a while, and came to the assessment hall.
The assessment hall is very large, with a length and width of more than [-] feet, surrounded by material cabinets as high as [-] to [-] feet. If you want to take out materials from the top, you must use a long ladder.
Many waiters and maids in uniform robes are constantly taking out materials from the material cabinet.
These people should all be members of the Alchemists Guild.
The style of the robe on his body is similar to that of a pharmacist, but the fabric is much worse.
There is a small plaque in the innermost part of the hall, which says where to get the materials, and many people are queuing up to get the materials.
The center of the hall is divided into two areas, one side occupies [-]% of the area of the hall, and hundreds of long tables are neatly arranged.
On each long table, there is a small one-foot-sized furnace tripod, which should be a low-grade Fanbao grade furnace tripod.
There are quite a few people who are refining Qi Refining Liquid.
There are complaints from time to time, coming from the area where the gas refining liquid is refined, it should be that someone failed to refine it.
Although there are many people participating in the assessment, the pass rate is not high.
On the other side of the center of the hall is the rest and waiting area, which is full of people at the moment.
There is also a small area at the front, which is the examination area for identifying materials.
Li Yunqing and Guan Tian found a place to sit down and rest in the waiting area, while Li Yuan went to the assessment area for identification materials.
There is not a single examiner in the examination area for identifying materials, and in such a noisy environment, the maid for the examination was sleeping soundly lying on the table.
Li Yuan knocked on the table with his backhand, and asked very politely: "Excuse me, is the identification material assessed here?"
The maid was awakened, rubbed her hazy eyes, and replied casually: "Yes."
"Sign up for me. I need to identify the materials and examine the apprenticeship certificate." Li Yuan said.
"Okay." The maid nodded. The next moment, she seemed to think of something. She quickly raised her head and looked at Li Yuan with strange eyes. "You said you want to sign up for identification materials."
At this moment, Li Yuan was a little annoyed. Yuan force gushed out of his body, and the strong fluctuations of Yuan force produced coercion, which made the maid who was only at the beginning of the Yuan force realm feel a little overwhelmed.
"I want to examine the identification materials, you understand." Li Yuan put away his coercion, lowered his voice as much as possible, and said to the maid.
Beads of hot sweat gushed out from the maid's forehead, and she didn't dare to be negligent. She quickly registered Li Yuan, opened an energy light curtain, and invited Li Yuan to do the assessment of identification materials.
In the Apprentice Certificate Examination Hall, there are basically no primordial practitioners who have cultivated in the Void Stepping Realm. The primordial practitioners who come here for the assessment are generally in the Qi Refining Realm and Primal Force Realm.
The coercion of Yuanli fluctuations exuded by Li Yuan made the maid understand that this handsome young man's cultivation base is much higher than hers.
At this time, pictures of alchemy materials appeared continuously on the energy light curtain, and Li Yuan passed by in a flash.
The above materials are all from the "Knowledge of Medicine" in Ji Zhenyi's scroll.
"Knowledge Medicine" contains more than 1 materials from the first-level materials to the fourth-level materials.
If you want to pass the assessment of identifying materials, you need to memorize more than 1 materials. This is a huge project, and it is much more difficult than refining gas and liquid.
Li Yuan had already grasped all the materials in the "Knowledge of Medicine" in his mind, including thousands of prescriptions.
Since there are no qualified candidates to participate in the assessment of identification materials, there is no need to queue up for registration for identification materials, which saves a lot of time.
Before the maid had fully recovered from the fear just now, Li Yuan had already identified a hundred kinds of materials without any mistakes.
The maid looked at Li Yuan with eyes like a monster.
Suddenly, her gaze collided with Li Yuan's fierce gaze, and she just realized that she immediately checked the registration of Li Yuan's identification materials.
After confirming that there was no problem, he took out a piece of animal skin the size of a palm, wrote some information briefly on it, and finally stamped the unique mark of the Alchemist Guild on the animal skin.
"Congratulations, my lord, you have passed the examination. This is your apprentice certificate. With this certificate, you can go to the examination of a mortal pharmacist." The maid smiled and handed the animal skin to Li Yuan respectfully.
Generally speaking, one who has passed the apprenticeship assessment cannot be regarded as a real pharmacist.
He can only refine qi-refining liquid, and some beginner Fan Dan can also try it, barely counting as half a pharmacist.
With the certificate, you can join the forces that recruit alchemist apprentices and get a good income.
Compared with other Yuan people, not only has an extra income, but also is more respected and has a noble status, so the maid calls Li Yuanzun an adult.
Li Yuan took the animal skin, nodded politely, turned around and walked towards the waiting area.
The maid was a little dazed looking at the tall and tall background that was fading away.
People who passed the apprenticeship assessment generally showed ecstasy, excitement, and excitement, but this one acted as if he had never participated in the assessment, without any emotional fluctuations.
Seeing Li Yuan approaching, Guan Tian sighed, and then smiled and comforted him: "Li Yuan, it's okay if you haven't passed the exam, let's find another way to enter Zhai's house.
"Even if you pass the apprenticeship assessment, you still have to take the ordinary-level pharmacist exam. After passing the assessment, you can take the real-level pharmacist exam. It's too troublesome."
Li Yuan glanced around, threw the animal skin in his hand to Guan Tian, and said indifferently: "Come on, let's go to take the test of mortal pharmacist now."
Guan Tian raised his palm and put the animal skin firmly in his hand.
"Let me just say, Xiao Yuanzi is a top pharmacist, and his apprenticeship certificate is just for passing through the motions. Brother Guan, you still don't believe me." Li Yunqing raised his head and said excitedly, and immediately took Li Yuan's arm and walked towards the hall Export away.
Staring at the animal skin in his palm, Guan Tian secretly said in disbelief, "How long did it take to pass, so easy?"
Not long after, the three of them came to the entrance of the previous alchemist assessment, and one of the guards said impatiently: "I said, why are you here again? Didn't I make it clear to you just now? If you want to go in, you have to get an apprentice certificate, or a letter of introduction from the teacher."
Li Yuan bowed his head and said, "Brother Guan, please give them your ID."
Guan Tian nodded, and handed the animal skin to the guard.
Seeing the animal skin that Guan Tian handed over, the guard checked it carefully, and passed it to the guard next to him. The two guards observed for a long time before confirming that the certificate was genuine.
The guard who checked the certificate later showed suspicion on his face, but he was not sure, so he asked weakly: "Little brother, did you just take this apprenticeship certificate?"
"What? Is there something wrong with the certificate? Or does it mean that after taking the apprenticeship certificate test today, you can no longer test the mortal pharmacist?" Li Yuan raised his eyebrows and asked in a cold voice.
The guard said embarrassingly: "Yes, there is no problem with your ID, you can go in. But these two can only wait outside."
Li Yuan said a few words to Li Yunqing and Guan Tian, and then walked into the gate guarded by two guards.
Entering the gate, there is a straight and wide corridor. There are several furnace devices on both sides of the corridor, the height of which is about the same as Li Yuan's.
At the end of the wide corridor is the examination alchemist hall.
The alchemist assessment hall is larger than the previous apprentice certificate assessment hall, and the decoration is obviously richer and simpler.
The windows on the surrounding walls are relatively small, and the light projected from the outside is not enough to illuminate the hall, so the lights around the hall are relatively dim.
Dozens of large lamps are erected in the center of the hall, and the dancing flames in the lampshade can still be seen, so the central area is well lit.
There are several pilasters on the walls on both sides, and there are huge pictures carved between the pilasters, all of which are precious and high-grade materials.
Each pilaster has a chi head to sprinkle water, and the water flows along the trough under the pilaster to form a stream, which meanders and flows to the pool in the center of the hall.
There are ten quaint long tables on both sides of the pool. The tabletops are very clean and there are no items on them.
There is a section of steps in the innermost part of the hall, about twenty or thirty steps.
At the top of the steps is a spacious platform with several mortise and tenon structure Yunliyuan wood seats, which is very grand.
A corner stood surrounded by more than a dozen people. From their conversations, it could be known that they also came to participate in the alchemist examination.
Except for the concentration of people there, there are not many figures in other parts of the hall, only a few people scattered everywhere, each quietly doing what they are doing at hand.
These are alchemists, and their clothes are no different from those seen at the gate of Zhai's house.
Although there are nearly 30 people in the hall, it is not enough to support the popularity of the spacious hall, which is a little deserted.
Li Yuan didn't know how to carry out the next process. After observing the surrounding environment, he shook his head helplessly, feeling a little embarrassed.
After thinking for a moment, he decided to ask someone casually first.
Just as Li Yuan was looking around, looking for the target, a woman in the robe of an alchemist walked over quickly.
There is only one fire pattern on the badge worn on the chest, which should be a mortal pharmacist.
"Hello, sir, are you here to examine the alchemist?"
After looking around at Li Yuan, the woman asked with a smile.
Li Yuan looked at the woman, judging from the energy fluctuations and breath of life emanating from her body, she was around 30 years old at the beginning of the Void Stepping Stage, and he couldn't see whether there was a bone in her body.
To be able to accurately see whether a person has a bone or not, it usually needs to be higher than two realms.
For example, to be able to clearly know whether Li Yuan has a bone in his body now, at least he must be in the Nirvana state, and the Nirvana state must be perfect.
If one wanted to tell what kind of bone a primordial person possessed, it generally had to be higher than three realms.
The alchemist's robe was worn on the woman's body, and it looked a little loose, but it still couldn't completely cover the exquisite figure under the robe.
"En." Li Yuan nodded politely, and then asked, "Are you from the guild?"
The woman smiled and said: "Yes. My name is Han Zishu, and Han Xuyang, the president of the alchemist guild in Qingzhai City, is my grandfather, so I also work in the guild.
"I'm not showing off. All the alchemists in Qingdi City know about it, so I said it in advance to avoid any misunderstanding later. Even if my grandfather is the guild leader, I won't receive much care because of it."
"Miss Han is a straightforward person." Li Yuan said with a smile.
Han Zishu's beautiful eyes swept over Li Yuan again, blinked, and said softly: "I think Mr. is born, he should be a few years younger than me.
"Among the younger generation in Qingdi City, I basically know all those who can come here to assess ordinary alchemists. Is this your first time coming to our alchemist guild in Qingdi City?"
Li Yuan nodded and said: "I am indeed here for the first time. Today I want to obtain a badge of alchemist. Can you tell me what I will do next? What procedures will I have to follow? Is it complicated?"
"It's not complicated, just register. I'm going there just now, so come with me." Han Zishu said.
Li Yuan nodded slightly, and walked side by side with Han Zishu.
Han Zishu took Li Yuan to a counter in front of the hall.
"Sister Su, this gentleman is here to take the exam to be a pharmacist, please help me to register." Han Zishu said to a woman who was also wearing the robe of a pharmacist at the counter.
The woman whom Han Zishu called Sister Su looked at Li Yuan several times, and joked, "Hey, Zishu personally guides you today.
"This little gentleman is very good-looking, handsome and upright, and suave. It just looks a little strange, how did you know each other, and you still keep it from us. Why? I'm afraid that my sister will snatch it from you."
Han Zishu's face turned red when he heard this, and hurriedly said, "Sister Su, what are you talking about. We met at the door just now. I don't even know his name."
Li Yuan on the side touched his head and smiled awkwardly.
"It's boring. Well, I won't tease you anymore." The woman shrugged her shoulders, pursed her mouth, and then looked at Li Yuan with a smile, "Mr. Xiao, what's your name? How old are you? Your teacher you Who? Show me the letter of introduction."
Li Yuan replied with a smile: "Li Yuan, 26 years old."
He paused, shrugged helplessly, and continued: "Sister Su, I don't have a teacher, so I don't have a letter of introduction. However, I just took an apprenticeship certificate there. This is okay."
Li Yuan followed Han Zishu and called the woman Sister Su, and at the same time put the animal skin certificate on the counter.
Hearing this, Han Zishu and Sister Su were obviously startled at the same time.
Sister Su picked up the certificate Li Yuan put on the counter and examined it carefully.
There is no problem with the certificate. It was indeed just received. She immediately coughed dryly and said, "The certificate can take part in the pharmacist assessment. You don't even have a teacher, but you can pass the apprentice assessment. I really don't know if you are lucky, or you are really practicing There is talent in medicine."
Sister Su was registering in a quaint book while talking.
"Li Yuan, do you really have no teacher? My grandfather is a condensed pharmacist. How about you learn how to make medicine with my grandfather? Let him be your teacher." Han Zishu said a little excitedly.
While registering, Sister Su half-jokingly said: "You let him follow your grandfather and be your grandfather's disciple. Then what should you call him? Is it his name, or is it Shishu?"
"Sister Su, I'm serious, okay?" Han Zishu stomped his feet.
"Okay, I'm just joking with you. The assessment is about to start. After the examination is over, you can discuss it with him." Sister Su raised her hand.
"Li Yuan, the assessment is about to start. There are ordinary low-grade Fanbao furnaces over there. Make a note, and someone will put the furnace on the long table for your assessment. Of course, if you have a better furnace, you can Use your own." Sister Su looked at Li Yuan.
Li Yuan looked at the cauldron placed next to him. It was better than the cauldron he used to refine the gas refining liquid, that's all.
"I'll just use myself." Li Yuan looked away from those furnaces.
Sister Su nodded lightly, and asked again: "Are you practicing the fire attribute technique? If not, do you need to rent the fire element earth spirit? The cheapest one only needs five low-grade primordial stones."
Li Yuan looked at Sister Su, who looked like a businessman, and it seemed that she had done a lot of selling land spirits.
"Li Yuan, regardless of whether you practice fire-attribute exercises or not, you should rent a fire-element earth spirit. It can save energy. When refining medicine, you won't be too distracted. This way the rate of alchemy will be higher and it will be easier to pass assessment."
Han Zishu mentioned that the fire-type earth spirit can help the pharmacist and make it easier for Li Yuan to pass the exam. What he said was his own experience and gave some suggestions.
Li Yuan thought for a while and touched the center of his brow.
Nine-color flames can be produced in the Qiankun Cauldron, which is the best flame for refining medicine, but it is also easy to expose this treasure.
It's not impossible to use fire-type earth spirits to cover people's eyes and ears.
"Okay." Li Yuan nodded, pondered for a while, and then asked, "Sister Su, how many primeval stones do you need to rent the best fire-element earth spirit here?"
Hearing this, Sister Su's eyes lit up immediately, she seemed to be entertaining, suppressed the joy in her heart, and introduced: "The best fire-element earth spirit here is Jin Yanniao, which needs ten middle-grade primordial stones.
"It will only be used in refining condensed pills. You are assessing a mortal alchemist, and what you are refining is mortal pills. Ordinary fire-type earth spirits are enough. The flame intensity of the Jinyan Bird is too high, at least Zongbao-level Only the furnace can bear it."
Li Yuan flicked his fingers, and ten middle-grade primordial stones appeared on the counter out of thin air, and he said in a deep voice, "My furnace cauldron happens to be a Zongbao, and a Jinyan bird is suitable. Sister Su can help me rent a Jinyan." Bird."
Han Zishu and Sister Su's eyes widened at the same time, their faces were obviously excited, and their bodies were still trembling slightly.
The ten middle-grade primordial stones are just for renting the fire element earth spirit.
The most frightening thing is that Li Yuan said that he used a furnace tripod of Zongbao level.
One must know that the lowest quality Zongbao furnace tripod is also worth hundreds of thousands of middle-grade primordial stones.
Li Yuan found that the two hadn't responded for a long time, so he coughed twice and asked, "Sister Su, what are the next steps? Where can Jin Yanniao get it?"
When Sister Su heard Li Yuan's question, she came back to her senses, calmed down, and responded with a slightly trembling voice: "There is no procedure, your position is facing the stairs in the hall, table No. [-] on the right.
"As for the refined pill, the invigilator will announce it later. The material will be sent to your place by a special person, and Jin Yanniao will take it directly. You can wait at your place now. Go down the steps here and take the test It's time to start."
While Sister Su was speaking, she pointed to the steps on the right.
Li Yuan bowed respectfully to Sister Su, nodded to Han Zishu beside him, and then went to the examination area.
.........
The mortal pharmacist assessment is about to begin.
A dozen or so figures clustered around the corner of the hall slowly dispersed and walked to their respective positions.
Sister Su wrote something on a piece of paper, took a stamp from the shelf behind the counter, and stamped it.
Holding the stamped paper and looking carefully, Sister Su waved to the waiter next to her and said, "Hanyu, send the information of this newcomer to the two presidents. Hurry up, the assessment will be soon." That's it."
The waiter named Hanyu didn't dare to neglect for a moment, and ran inside with the information.
Li Yuan went down the stairs all the way, bypassed the creek in the central area, and came to table No. [-] in the assessment area.
Looking around, he found that more than a dozen examiners were using free furnaces to refine medicine, but his desk was empty.
Judging from the fluctuations in the origin force of these assessors, all of them are practicing fire-attribute exercises, and their cultivation bases are all in the early and middle stages of the origin force realm.
Most of them are about the same age as him except for a few who are older.
The gazes of several women participating in the pharmacist assessment all glanced over Li Yuan from time to time.
Naturally, they couldn't see Li Yuan's cultivation based on their cultivation, not to mention that they didn't want to investigate his cultivation, and the focus of attention was on Li Yuan's appearance.
There is nothing to say about Li Yuan's appearance, the jade tree faces the wind, fresh and handsome.
Being stared at by so many strange eyes, it was like looking at a monster, which made Li Yuan a little embarrassed, so he tried his best to avoid those eyes looking at him and not intertwined with them.
Just trying to find a way to alleviate this embarrassing situation, the hall suddenly fell silent.
The eyes of all the primordial beings moved away from him, and fell on the passage on the right side of the stairs ahead.
Li Yuan hurriedly called out the Qiankun Ding and put it on the table.
Reduce the grade of Qiankun Ding to Zongbao level, and the appearance of Qiankun Ding at this time is red.
Zongbao-level furnaces are much larger than Fanbao furnaces, with the widest point being two feet wide.
Compared with the stoves on the desks of other examiners, they should be noticed. After all, the widest part of those stoves is only half of the stove on Li Yuan's desk.
Although the red cauldron is conspicuous, no one else is paying attention at the moment, all eyes are on the passage on the right side of the stairs ahead.
Not long after, two old men came out from the passage, also wearing the robes of pharmacists, with three fire patterns on the badges on their chests, both of them were condensed pharmacists.
As soon as the two appeared, the audience burst into cheers.
Judging from the respectful titles these people gave to the two old men, they should be the president and vice president of the Alchemist Association of Qingzhai City.
One of the white-haired old men, from his appearance, Li Yuan could tell at a glance that he was the chairman, Han Xuyang, because Han Zishu's appearance was somewhat similar to him.
Another gray-haired, slightly thinner old man is the vice president Ren Yanchen.
Han Xuyang and Ren Yanchen walked to the center of the platform, and when they were about to wave to the examiners, their eyes fell on the stove on Li Yuan's desk.
"Extreme Zongbao Furnace!" Han Xuyang and Ren Yanchen exclaimed at the same time.
Although I don't know the name of the cauldron in front of Li Yuan, but after all, he is a high-level pharmacist with a lot of experience, so he can know the quality of the cauldron just by looking at it from a distance.
As condensed-rank pharmacists, the two of them naturally also used Zongbao-rank furnaces, but they were both middle-grade Zongbao, worth hundreds of high-grade primordial stones.
The top-grade Zongbao furnace cauldron in front of Li Yuan was impossible to buy without tens of thousands of high-grade primordial stones.
Moreover, this level of furnace cauldron cannot be measured with primordial stones.
If the cauldron had already shocked them, then when their eyes fell on Li Yuan, the two of them opened their mouths wide at the same time, their eyes widened, and they were a little panicked.
26 years old, at the peak of the late stage of the Void Stepping Realm.
They have never seen this age and cultivation level before.
Questions arose in both of their hearts at the same time.
The young man in front of him should not be from Yuanzhou.
Either from the capital.
Either from outside the Great Xia Dynasty.
After a while, Han Xuyang and Ren Yanchen came back to their senses, looked at each other, nodded at the same time, and stroked their beards.
The people below saw that the two presidents lost their composure. At this moment, they all turned their attention to Li Yuan's position.
Only then did they notice the furnace on Li Yuan's table. Although they couldn't tell what the quality of the furnace was, it was definitely much higher quality than the one they used.
However, they did not lose their composure like the two presidents did, but their eyes were full of envy.
At this time, a mortal alchemist man came to Li Yuan's location with an earth spirit.
The land spirit is covered with golden and fire-colored feathers, with a slender neck, a small head, and a long, flat mouth.
The huge mouth is somewhat incongruous with the small head. The body length is seven or eight feet, and the legs are more than half a foot long, making this bird more than one foot tall.
"Jinyan bird!"
Suddenly, a surprised voice came from among the examiners.
Hearing this, other examiners also looked at Jin Yanniao with surprised eyes.
Although they had heard that the Alchemist Guild raised a Jin Yan bird, they had never seen it before. Today was an eye-opener.
The examination area by the central pool was in chaos, and all the examiners made a lot of noise.
Li Yuan looked at the Jin Yanniao in front of him, and then chatted with the pharmacist to understand how to use Jin Yanniao.
After understanding everything clearly, he bowed his hands to the pharmacist, who also bowed his hands in return, and the latter left the examination area.
Looking back, Li Yuan rubbed his head and smiled awkwardly as he intertwined the eyes of those assessors.
He suddenly realized that it was a little too ostentatious.
Scanning the chaotic situation below, Han Xuyang's face became serious, he waved his hand downward, coughed a few times, and said loudly: "Okay, everyone returns to their positions."
Hearing the chairman's voice, all the assessors behaved a little better and quickly returned to their respective positions.
After all the examiners returned to their positions, Han Xuyang and Ren Yanchen nodded to each other. Ren Yanchen clenched his fist with his right hand, put it in front of his mouth, coughed twice, cleared his throat, and said in a loud voice: "The pharmacist assessment is about to begin, and I will announce it now." rule."
At this moment, the hall was silent, and then, Ren Yanchen's slightly aged voice echoed in the hall.
Except for Li Yuan, all the assessors below have taken the test several times and are quite familiar with the rules.
Before the alchemist assessment begins, reading out the rules is a fixed procedure.
According to Ren Yanchen's introduction, in the examination of ordinary pharmacists, it takes two sticks of incense to refine elixir, almost two hours.
The big incense that recorded the time was inserted in the incense vessel not far in front of Ren Yanchen, and the examiners could see it by looking up.
There is a big bell in the center above the hall. When the incense is lit, the big bell will ring at the same time to indicate the start of the assessment.
After the second stick of incense was burned out, the big bell was rung again to signify the end of the assessment.
The pills refined in the assessment are all ordinary and low-grade vanilla pills, and they are all the most common pills, and the less popular pills will not be assessed.
Specifically what kind of pill each examiner refines, before the official assessment, the alchemists of the Alchemist Association will bring the lottery tubes with the names of the pills to each examiner one by one, and the examiners will draw lots to decide which one to refine. Elixir.
The elixir on each stake is different, so all the examiners can only rely on their own experience to refine the elixir, and it is impossible to observe and learn on the spot.
After all, the refining method, the order of placing the materials, and the refining time are different for each type of elixir.
What kind of elixir each assessor specifically refines depends on some luck. If a simple elixir is drawn, the chance of passing will be greatly increased.
For the inferior Fandan, the most difficult to refine is Yanlidan, but Li Yuan can refine it with his eyes closed.
Even if you have never refined unpopular elixir, there are only prescriptions and no elixir, there is no problem in front of a pharmacist who has refined a large number of three grains into the void pills.
As long as you refine a pill of Yiwen quality, you can pass the test and get the badge of a mortal pharmacist.
For the examination of ordinary pharmacists, the materials for refining pills are provided by the guild. No matter whether the refining is successful or not, there is no need to pay any fees. This is also the guild's intention to encourage everyone.
If any pill is successfully refined, the pill will be owned by the guild.
Of course, if the pharmacist wants to take the elixir, he can convert it into the corresponding market price according to the quality of the elixir, and then buy it at half price.
Most of the assessors will buy the elixir they refined. After all, this is the elixir refined during the assessment, and it is quite commemorative to become a real pharmacist.
