Chapter 22 Alchemy
When Chu Nan removed the soil of the plant in his hand and revealed its true face of Mount Lu, a systematic prompt appeared in Chu Nan's mind.
"Congratulations to the host for receiving the thousand-year ginseng, rewarding merit value for fifty points, and cumulative total merit value of ninety points!"
This prompt made Chu Nan very happy. On the one hand, it was because he knew that the accumulation methods of merit value were diversified, and on the other hand, it was confirmed that his judgment was correct. The thing he was holding was Millennium Ginseng.
Su Qianjing over there had actually guessed what this thing that looked like ginseng fruit was.
But this kind of speculation was too incredible, which made Su Qianjing, a person who has always been extremely confident, couldn't help but begin to doubt his judgment.
She directly ignored Chu Nan's impulse to smash the wooden stake and asked Chu Nan subconsciously: "Is this thing in your hand ginseng?"
"From the knowledge I have mastered, we can conclude that it is undoubtedly ginseng." Chu Nan said with a smile.
The calm surface hides an excited heart.
The medicine needed to refine Xiaolingyun Pill is Centennial Ginseng. If you use Centennial Ginseng yourself instead, the effect will definitely be much better.
Maybe at that time, I could only refine one small spiritual rhyme pill at a time, but because the medicine is good enough, I would give myself a big surprise in terms of quantity or quality?
However, Du Ershao could not accept this fact and pointed at Chu Nan and said angrily: "Impossible, this is absolutely impossible! How could a broken wooden stake grow ginseng? Moreover, this ginseng does not look like ginseng at all, but it looks like something artificially cultivated, and it has human shape!"
"Of course you don't know what a miracle of life is." Chu Nan said disdainfully: "As for the spiritual herbs like ginseng, if they are old enough, they can grow human form, you must have never heard of this legend."
"That's right, do less moral things and read more books." Su Qianjing also took the opportunity to sarcastically mocked Mr. Du Er.
When Du Ershen was so angry that his teeth were itchy, Chu Nan ignored him and carefully held the ginseng up. He couldn't bear to spare his hands to open the car door when he got in the car.
Instead, he said to Su Qianjing: "Help me open the car door!"
Su Qianjing was so angry that she was so angry that she had become so happy when she saw Du Er Shao, who made her extremely disgusted.
Without any hesitation, he didn't care that Chu Nan's hands were covered with yellow mud, so he opened the car door and let Chu Nan get on the car.
However, he was provocative and made a contemptuous gesture towards Du Ershao, drove away in his sports car.
Looking at Su Qianjing's supercar, she was getting farther and farther away from her. I thought that I had spent more than 5 million to buy a century-old ginseng, but Chu Nan only spent more than 800,000 to buy a thousand-year-old ginseng that was about to grow.
This huge gap made Du Er Shao very angry. In anger, he saw that he had a century-old brocade box of ginseng in his hand, and he became even more disliked.
He gritted his teeth and threw the Jinke to the ground hard. He still felt unsatisfied and raised his legs and stomped on it.
It was not until the brocade box and the century-old ginseng were stepped on and rotten, and then I slowly calmed down.
But after calming down, I felt particularly distressed when I saw the century-old ginseng that had been ravaged by myself.
This was bought at a high price of 550,000 yuan. Although the Du family is very rich, he is just one of the young masters of the Du family. Although he has a lot of pocket money every year, he has a limited amount.
Five million is almost one-third of Du Ershou’s annual pocket money, and when it comes to his position, he still has to pay attention to the show and there are many places to use money.
It was worth spending five million to disgust Chu Nan and make Chu Nan depressed and painful, but it was quite worth it, and he could also buy a century-old mountain ginseng.
But now, not only does it not disgusting Chu Nan, but it makes me extremely depressed and even the old ginseng is gone.
This undoubtedly made Du Er Shao hate Chu Nan to the core.
He kicked the already rotten old ginseng out for a long time and said to the follower beside him, "Go and find out the details of this kid immediately. If you dare to steal a woman from me, I want to make him worse than death!"
...
While Du Er Shao was furious here, the atmosphere on Su Qianjing's supercar was cheerful.
Thinking of Du Ershou's defeated expression, Su Qianjing couldn't help but smirk.
Regardless of whether Chu Nan is willing to listen or not, he opened his mouth and complained to Chu Nan: "You don't know how hateful this guy is. I always go to my house to show my diligence and don't say it. I always come to send me flowers or something. In the past, as long as a man said a few more words to me, he would secretly use secret tricks. He was simply a complete scum."
"But as soon as I went to settle the score with him, he wouldn't admit it. Even the people he had dealt with were afraid of him and dared not stand up to testify. I was so angry that I had no place to go. If it weren't for you today, I really wouldn't know how to vent my anger!"
As he spoke, he seemed to remember the angry look of Mr. Du, and couldn't help but giggle: "It turns out that he is a villain and needs to be punished by a villain!"
Chu Nan was still thinking about how to refine this little spiritual rhyme pill.
When he suddenly heard Su Qianjing give him such a definition, he immediately defended himself with dissatisfaction: "Why am I a villain?"
"Aren't you bad yet? I'm thinking about how to kiss me all day long..." Su Qianjing said, and her blush spread to the back of her ears.
This sentence choked Chu Nan directly, and he wanted to tell Su Qianjing that he was the reaction of a normal man. If you see her normally, you would probably have the same thoughts as me?
This topic is too embarrassing, and Chu Nan couldn't take it down, so he could only change the topic with a smile: "Actually, he can't blame him for being entangled with you. Who made you look so beautiful? He can understand it even if he is dedicated!"
Su Qianjing felt happy when she was praised by Chu Nan so roundaboutly.
But soon he pouted with dissatisfaction and thought to himself that he really wanted to be like you said, why didn’t you be attentive to me?
But then I thought about it, if Chu Nan was like other people, and if he saw him, he would come to please him and show his respect, he would probably be too lazy to pay attention to him.
When I thought about it this way, I felt a lot more comfortable. At the same time, I thought of the thousand-year-old mountain ginseng and couldn't help asking: "Why did this person grow into a wooden stake? And it's so high! Is this too magical?"
"Actually, if you think about it carefully, you will feel reasonable."
Chu Nan said seriously: "First of all, the wooden stake just now is obviously from a thousand-year-old tree in the deep mountains of the northeast. That place is also the place where ginseng grows."
"Secondly, the inside of this tree is vacuum, and there is also a small insect eye. The wind can blow soil and other things into the insect eye, or blow ginseng seeds into it."
"With seeds and soil, ginseng can absorb the energy of the big tree and store it. Moreover, growing inside the big tree can not only avoid the collection of experienced ginseng harvesters, but also avoid the destruction of herbivores. Instead, it has the conditions for growing for thousands of years."
Su Qianjing nodded repeatedly and couldn't help but smash her mouth and said, "This person needs great luck to survive, and it takes even more luck to buy it. Oh... no, you should have seen that there are thousands of years of ginseng in this wooden stake, so you think about buying it, right?"
This thought scared Su Qianjing. If Chu Nan had really discovered that there was a treasure in the wooden stake, then his ability would have been so powerful that it was a certain level.
My definition of his charlatan must be completely incorrect.
Chu Nan was unwilling to admit this fact. Seeing Su Qianjing turning her head and staring at him, her heart was also filled with pain.
I couldn't help but point to the road ahead and said, "Don't look at me, look at the road, you drive but watch the road drive. Don't you know to cherish life?"
"Then tell me, have you discovered that there are treasures in this tree stump? Otherwise, why would you raise a price of something worth only 10,000 or 20,000 to more than 800,000?" Su Qianjing asked fiercely.
Chu Nan touched his nose and said with a wry smile: "I am fighting with Mr. Du Er. I think I can't weaken your face, so I can handle it to the end! As for the treasures in the wooden stake, this is a coincidence, purely a coincidence!"
"But why didn't you stand it to the end when you shot ginseng?" Su Qianjing was obviously dissatisfied with the explanation of "coincidence" and continued to ask.
"Well..." Chu Nan was a little confused and said with a clever inspiration: "More than five million is beyond the limit I have to bear. We have to fight for face, but we can't hurt our foundation for face, right? Even if you can lend me money, I can't squander it at will."
Chu Nan's answer is nothing wrong with emotion or reason, but Su Qianjing doesn't believe it.
When passing a farmers' market, Chu Nan did not give Su Qianjing the chance to continue to linger, and said, "Okay, Mr. Su, I'll forget it now, I have to buy some things for my new home. Thank you for today's business, I'll treat you to dinner another day."
As he spoke, after the car stopped, he got out of the car and left in a row.
But Su Qianjing looked at Chu Nan's back as she disappeared into the crowd, but she did not change her eyes for a long time.
She felt that from now on, it was time to get to know Chu Nan from another perspective. This guy was obviously not the simple charlatan he imagined, and he must be a little more capable.
...
After Chu Nan came to the farmers' market, he bought a large pressure cooker directly.
The tripod needed for alchemy is difficult to find these days, so after studying the principle of the tripod, Chu Nan decided to use a pressure cooker instead.
Then I had to go to the pharmacy and scan for the medicines needed for alchemy.
The Xiaolingyun Dan is a pill recipe, except for the ginseng that takes more than a hundred years to attract medicine, and other medicinal materials are just ordinary functional Chinese medicines and are not difficult to buy.
After preparing the utensils and medicinal materials, Chu Nan took a car and returned to his residence with a large bag.
After cleaning the medicinal materials and medicine, I turned on the natural gas stove and sat on the pressure cooker.
Then put the medicinal materials in the order indicated in the elixir recipe.
Not to mention, alchemy is really a meticulous job.
The heat can be well controlled after natural gas. It is necessary to have a large fire and a small fire.
However, the order and time of the medicinal materials are also extremely particular.
Dozens of medicinal materials, the order of placement and the heat can directly affect the efficacy of the elixir, and cannot be ambiguous at all.
In addition, this time the medicine is a thousand-year-old ginseng that is hard to come by. Once it is destroyed, I don’t know when it will be encountered next time, so Chu Nan is more focused.
During the six hours of elixir refining, that is, twelve hours, Chu Nan did not leave the kitchen, and had never even gone to the toilet. He focused all his attention on the elixir in the pressure cooker.
Chapter completed!
