Chapter 127 Artifact Making and Alchemy

Several people went together and entered the martial arts academy.

As an old student, Shen Zhongshan knew a lot about the martial arts academy, so he brought Xu Gu An, Lu Liang and other freshmen to the office to sign in.

There, everyone received a square jade pendant.

On the front is the word Dong Lan, and on the back is everyone's name engraved.

The workmanship of the jade plaque is exquisite and meticulous, and it is the identity proof of all the students.

In addition to the identity jade badge, each person was also issued two sets of martial arts student costumes, one in white, which was similar in tone to the Weng family's family costumes, but the difference between the two could be clearly distinguished at a glance.

Whether it is texture pattern or style is different.

In addition, Xu Gu'an also took a key.

He will live in the college from now on.

The Martial Arts Academy specially built residential pavilions for the students who came from afar, and all students were eligible to live there for free.

As for Lu Liang and the others, they already have a residence in the town, so they don't need to live in the college.

After doing this, they can be regarded as having completed the report they are going to do today.

After that, Xu Guan separated from the others and went to his residence in the martial arts academy alone.

In a relatively secluded place, there is a large pavilion with white tiles and walls, three stories high.

It is in the shape of a mouth, somewhat similar to a courtyard, with a large garden in the middle, and students live in rooms on all sides.

There are many landscape green plants in the garden, butterflies are flying among the flowers, and the construction is quite careful.

Besides Xu Gu'an, many young freshmen came here, shuttled through the pavilions, looking for their own residences.

The houses in the building are divided into three levels: heaven, earth and people.

Naturally, the best one is Tianzizi, followed by Dizizizi, and the most common one is Renzizizi.

Xu Gu'an, as a freshman with a full score, naturally holds the best Tianzihao key in his hand.

Go straight to the third floor of the pavilion. The number of rooms here is the least, but it is also the most spacious and comfortable.

Soon, he found his own place.

Tianzi number seven.

There is a lock on the door, use the key distributed by Wuyuan to open and push the door to enter.

Although it looked like no one had stayed in this room for a while, the room was still quite tidy and there was not much dust to be found.

Moreover, the furniture and decorations are all available, and it can be seen that the Wuyuan has been cleaning and maintaining these empty houses.

The layout of the entire room is hundreds of square meters, extremely spacious, not cramped.

It was much larger than the single room in the inn he had stayed in before.

It can be seen that the Martial Academy treated him quite well.

Xu Gu'an himself doesn't really have much requirements for the residence, as long as it is clean and does not affect his daily practice.

Putting the clothes in the package into the closet, he has officially entered the martial arts academy.

He changed into college-style attire, a white brocade suit, and an identity badge hanging on his waist.

I have to say, compared to the linen clothes I was used to wearing before, this satin suit is indeed much more comfortable.

People rely on clothes, Xu Guan seems to be a little more handsome at the moment, and also has a little more temperament of a son.

Walk out of the room, ready to go to other places in the martial arts academy.

Suddenly aware of a line of sight falling on him, Xu Gu'an looked slightly sideways.

On the second floor, at the door of a room with a local name, a young man was watching him.

It wasn't anyone else, it was the one from Wujiacun who had met once before.

Xu Gu'an remembered the other party, and the other party naturally recognized Xu Gu'an.

"This guy..." Wu Shitian's mind flashed back to the scene where Xu Gu'an got a perfect score in the previous martial arts assessment, which is still vivid in his mind.

And his final score was only 38 points, which is considered a very good score among many freshmen, but compared with Xu Gu'an, it is undoubtedly a lot worse.

He admired that genius from the Shen family, but no matter how you look at it now, in the same class, Xu Gu'an is a better match than him.

Silently withdrawing his gaze, Wu Shitian entered the room.

Xu Gu'an could feel the sharpness in the eyes of the other party looking at him, as if he regarded him as an opponent.

He didn't care either.

At the moment when the assessment was over, among the outstanding freshmen of the same class, most of them regarded him as their imaginary enemy.

Regardless of the reason, the one from Wujia Village is just one of them.

It is impossible not to be missed by people who are beautiful in the woods.

After leaving the student's residence, Xu Guan strolled alone in the martial arts academy.

The entire Donglan College is divided into the School of Arts and the School of Martial Arts.

Xu Gu'an was in the martial arts academy, and he could see the location of the literary academy from a distance.

It is a place where real scholars and bachelors gather together.

It was heard that Shen Xi wanted to be admitted to the Donglan Academy of Arts at the beginning, and there was a lot of commotion because of this, which is still talked about by people.

In this era, the civil is weak and the military is strong.

Abandoning martial arts and following literature is mostly another way out for those with poor cultivation talents.

Of course, there are also quite a few all-rounders with both civil and military skills who have left many good names in this world, but those are only a very small number.

Most of those with extremely strong cultivation talents will be obsessed with martial arts and practice all the way.

Even if you are distracted, you will not be able to maximize your talent and aptitude, and you will only have regrets in the end.

Xu Gu'an is actually somewhat interested in the Academy of Arts.

It's not that I'm interested in those poems, but I want to know the research results of some ancient characters.

Some ancient texts have been passed down for a long time, and it is said that many secrets are hidden in them.

Xu Guan was curious about these secrets.

Of course, he won't really spend a lot of time on this, the most important thing is still to improve his own strength.

He can still distinguish between primary and secondary.

Except for the independent Academy of Arts, the entire East Lanwu Academy is still quite large and covers a wide range of fields.

Those who are new to the town and don't know much about it may think that the martial arts academy only teaches martial arts and exercises.

But in fact, in addition to martial arts training, the martial arts academy also includes elective courses such as weapon making and medicine refining.

And there are many subdivided fields under the subject of making utensils and refining medicine.

Xu Gu'an was also very interested in this elective subject when he thought of the Lianpi Dan he had eaten before, and the soup and medicine prescriptions in the secret recipe for bone forging.

More than once, he thought about obtaining materials by himself, refining medicine by himself, and being self-sufficient.

It's just that in the village before, he didn't have relevant connections to understand the theoretical knowledge of alchemy and pharmaceuticals.

It was not until I came to this martial arts academy that I had the opportunity to make contact.

The same goes for the builder.

And the reason why the making of utensils and refining medicines was not returned to the Academy of Arts was also because the literati in the Academy of Arts were too "weak" to do the work of making utensils and refining medicines.

It is said that some of the master-level figures in making utensils and refining medicines are all people with high cultivation bases.

It seems that if the cultivation base is not high-strength, it will be restricted in making utensils and refining medicine, and it will be difficult to improve and create high-grade colored and light items.

It is also the premise of high cultivation and strength, so these two types of subjects are placed here in the martial arts academy.

"Department of Organism."

Xu Gu'an passed an elegant garden with an open door, and saw the three characters engraved on the plaque.

"What a big Yayuan." Seeing that this Yayuan is quite big, Xu Guan was a little curious and wanted to go in and have a look.

Suddenly, exclamations came from inside, and a group of students swarmed out.

"Be careful!" A panicked senior kept waving at Xu Gu'an, signaling him to run away.

"This..." Xu Guan didn't understand why.

What's happening here?
The next moment, there was a violent explosion, the earth trembled, and several sparks exploded from the door, randomly hitting a few unlucky ones who hadn't escaped in time.

After that, billows of black smoke gushed out of it.

Xu Gu'an was intimidated, and followed the crowd back a few steps.

Some students who were running slowly came out of the black smoke coughing.

"Hey, brother Lu, why are you here?" Xu Guan couldn't help asking when he saw an acquaintance walking out.

"Cough cough, brother Xu, again, we meet again." Lu Liang shook his tinnitus head, wanting to cry but without tears.

At this moment, his face was already blackened, and even his hair was blown into popcorn. He looked really miserable.

"The Toolmaking Department of Donglan Martial Arts Academy is quite famous in the town, I wanted to entrust the seniors there to make a white quality fishing rod.

Who would have thought that there would be a failure in the construction of a device.”

When Lu Liang said this, black smoke was still coming out of his mouth, like a locomotive in motion.

"Is this the movement after the device failed?" Xu Gu'an was confused.

He never imagined that a failed device would be so destructive.

"Well, maybe it was developing a novelty, but it failed anyway." Lu Liang shook his head and said, he was not very clear.

Xu Gu'an looked at the students of the Artifact Making Department, his expression had returned to calm at this moment, and after the black smoke cleared, he went back inside and went about his business.

It seems that such explosions are commonplace, and it's not a big deal in this instrument-making department.

Xu Gu'an pursed his lips, and gave up the idea of ​​learning how to make tools by himself.

Weapons or something, just spend money to buy it.

No matter how bad it is to brush up the dungeon, there is no need to let yourself spend the whole day in the explosion.

Xu Guan suddenly figured it out.

"Brother Lu, do you want to go back and have a look?" Xu Guan asked Lu Liang, who was on the side.

"I really want to go back and take a shower, so I'll take my leave first." Lu Liang covered his face and left in a hurry.

Thinking about it, he didn't want to be recognized with such a bad image.

Xu Gu'an continued to visit the martial arts academy alone.

Soon, he saw the Alchemy Department of the Martial Academy again, which was also a large elegant garden.

Only a little closer, Xu Gu'an could smell the tangy scent of medicine.

"Run! It's time to fry the furnace!"

Xu Gu'an froze in his steps.

The next moment, there was another extremely dull and loud noise.

With billowing flames, familiar black smoke rises from Yayuan.

"Quick, put out the fire, put out the fire!"

"The cultural relic records inside must not be lost!"

"Student, junior, wake up, hurry up, go and get the healing medicine I just refined."

Xu Gu'an saw many students inside rushing to fetch water from wooden buckets to put out the fire, and fell silent for a while.

This utensil making and alchemy really have the same effect
It's no wonder that those weapon pills with colored light are so expensive.

Emotion is a high-risk industry that puts one's life on the line.
Xu Gu'an suddenly became cautious about these two elective subjects that he longed for.

He consulted some seniors and finally understood the situation.

In fact, it is also because too many new students choose to study these two major subjects every year.

The first attempt failed to grasp the essentials, so there are frequent failure cases.

This is indeed not a rare thing in the martial arts academy.

If you want to interview those masters of alchemy and tool making who have achieved great success, you will know that even they first started learning from a failed explosion.

That's why some people who study this way often say, the perception of failure, the art of explosion.

After thinking about it, Xu Gu'an still stepped into the alchemy department.

After a lot of hard work by the students, the fire has now been extinguished. Xu Gu'an saw that the door of a room in the garden was open, and the inside was in a mess.

A large furnace with a height of half a person fell to the ground, still emitting a little black smoke.

I think it was the one that exploded just now.
