On the table, there are five round and brightly colored elixirs.
Gu Chen looked at them carefully for a few times, then picked up the pills one by one and sniffed them gently.
Fatty Qian looked on with a smile, quite proud of himself.
In just four days, he visited the residences of the five alchemy masters, and each of them refined elixirs that met the requirements according to Zhao Chen's elixir recipe.
None of these five elixirs looked ordinary, and Fatty Qian believed that Gu Chen would be satisfied.
Gu Chen observed carefully for a moment, with a thoughtful look on his face, he turned to look at the hunchbacked old man behind him. "Senior, what do you think?"
The hunchbacked old man only glanced at the five elixirs and shook his head in disappointment. "If what you want to refine, chief, is just ordinary elixirs, these five alchemists are enough to meet the requirements. However, if you take the first elixir,
Leaving it to them would definitely be a waste of natural resources."
The old man spoke with certainty, and Gu Chen couldn't help but sigh when he heard the words.
In his opinion, these five elixirs looked good, but they were far from perfect.
The elixir in the elixir they gave was actually not difficult to refine, but the five alchemy masters were still unable to perfect it. Giving them the precious three-color lotus root could not guarantee the elixir-making rate he wanted.
In particular, Gu Chen planned to find someone to help research the recipe for the Eternal Golden Pill, but none of these five people met the requirements!
"The skills of these five alchemy masters are already recognized as superb. Old man, are you being too picky?"
Fatty Qian thought he would get Gu Chen's praise, but he didn't expect that all five of them would be rejected. He was immediately dissatisfied, thinking that the hunchbacked old man was too high-minded.
The hunchbacked old man didn't mind Fatty Qian's rudeness. He showed his missing front teeth and explained with a smile. "Don't be convinced. I gave you this prescription. I naturally know what kind of taste is best."
OK."
"If this Jade Dragon Pill is perfect, there will be eleven blue lines on the body of the pill. The lower the quality of the refining, the fewer the number of lines on the pill will be, until it will not become a pill in the end."
"If you look at the elixirs produced by these five alchemists, the most they have are only eight lines, and the worst ones are only five lines, which is far from meeting our requirements."
After hearing what the old man said, Fatty Qian looked carefully and found that the number of pill patterns on the five pills was inconsistent.
He was speechless for a moment. It seemed that the old man was not being picky, but that he had real discernment.
"Since none of these five people meet the requirements, we can only choose Gaoming."
Gu Chen frowned, realizing how difficult it was to find a satisfactory alchemist.
Seeing Gu Chen in trouble, Fatty Qian looked a little worried.
The boss only gave him one task in total, but he couldn't handle it well. How could he have the dignity to gain a foothold among a group of people in the future?
He was anxious in his heart, and suddenly thought of someone, with a look of hesitation on his face.
"Fat man, what's wrong?" Gu Chen noticed his expression and asked.
Fatty Qian gritted his teeth and simply confessed. "Boss, there is actually another alchemy master who may meet your requirements, and this one lives in Three Thousand Small Worlds all year round and is very famous. He is far from the five I invited.
Comparable."
"Oh? Since there is such an expert, why didn't you invite him?" Gu Chen said in surprise.
"It's true that this person has such an eccentric personality and has a distinguished status. With the channels and abilities of my Qian family, I can't afford to hire him!" Fatty Qian said with a bitter smile.
"Oh? I wonder where this person comes from?" Gu Chen became interested.
"This man's name is Tianchanzi, and he has been famous for his Danhuo Dao for a long time. It is said that Mr. Lei Dao once visited the thatched cottage in person to invite him to come out of the mountain, but he didn't even want to see him!"
Fatty Qian said, shaking his head. "Boss, think about it, he dares to ignore even a person like Lei Daojun, how can I invite him?"
"I originally thought that those five alchemy masters would be enough to meet your requirements, boss, but I didn't expect that the boss's requirements are so high. After much thought, only Master Tianchanzi can meet the conditions!"
After hearing this, Gu Chen looked thoughtful. Even Dao Lord dared to ignore him. Such a person is indeed difficult to deal with.
Although he has the entire Xingjun's heritage, he cannot give it all to Tian Chanzi.
Since Lei Daojun asked him to come out, the price he was willing to pay would definitely not be small, at least it would be higher than himself.
Just like that, the man still refused and didn't worry about offending Dao Lord, which shows how difficult it is to serve.
"Tian Chanzi... tell me, what are the rumors about that person?"
The hunchbacked old man did not retreat despite the difficulties. Instead, he asked Fatty Qian with great interest.
Fatty Qian had considered inviting Tianchanzi to come out before, and even tried to visit him, so he had naturally done a lot of research on him.
At that moment, he told the hunchbacked old man some rumors about Tianchanzi.
The hunchbacked old man smiled after hearing this, "I probably understand this man's character. Little fat man, you said you had tried to visit him before, right?"
"That's right, it's just that Toad was too proud that day. Not to mention meeting him, even if he wanted to visit his door, he had to prepare a greeting card in advance and get his permission before he could go."
"I gave the greeting card to his gatekeeper before, but it was like nothing. They didn't care about me at all!"
Fatty Qian said angrily.
"I understand. I will personally write a greeting note and send it along with the recipe I gave you before." The hunchbacked old man touched his beard and said with a smile.
"Old man, is it possible that you still want Toad to try the elixir for you that day?" Fatty Qian's eyes suddenly widened, and he suspected that the old man didn't hear him clearly.
"Just do as I say. Who says he won't see you?" the hunchbacked old man said meaningfully.
Fatty Qian's face was full of disbelief, but Gu Chen knew that the hunchbacked old man would not make a mistake, so he motioned to him and asked him to do as he was told.
Suspicious, Fatty Qian took the old man's greeting card and the recipe and went there. Two days later, he got a reply.
"Boss, Tianchanzi actually invited us to visit!"
Fatty Qian had a ghostly expression on his face. In addition to getting a reply from Tian Chanzi, he also got a jade box.
"Show me the jade box."
The hunchbacked old man was not surprised at this result. He took the jade box from Fatty Qian and opened it.
Inside the jade box is a Jade Dragon Pill, which looks much better than the ones refined by the previous five alchemists.
Gu Chen took a closer look and suddenly discovered that there were twelve blue lines on the elixir body!
"This person's alchemy attainments are really terrifying. If he were allowed to break into the Dao-killing realm, I'm afraid his achievements would not be lower than that of the Alchemy Master..."
The hunchbacked old man looked at the Yulong Pill with a very moved expression, and then said seriously to Gu Chen, "Chief, we must win over this alchemist no matter what. If he can join us, we will be even more powerful!"
