The old man has a bad temper, but the rules are that you can't take the wrong medicine, you can't cause trouble when he is refining the elixir, and you have to learn how to make him food and drinks.
When Mu Qianyu heard the first two words, she thought it was very easy, but when she heard the last one, she found it difficult. She actually loves to eat food. As for cooking, it's not that she's not familiar with it, but the taste is not necessarily up to standard.
"I'm good at cooking. I love cooking the most in my life, and my skills are second to none." Fatty Lan smiled again and said to Mu Qianyu, "Brother Dahai, how about I cook the food and warm the wine while you grab the medicine?"
"I think so." Mu Qianyu agreed happily.
The alchemy room is very large. It is used for alchemy on the left, and there is a kitchen on the right around the corner. In the middle of the two is a stone table, which is specially used for drinking wine for the old man.
The old man also introduced himself and said his surname was Xia. Mu Qianyu and Fatty Lan privately called him Old Man Xia.
Old Man Xia was obsessed with alchemy, and gave Mu Qianyu several pill recipes every day to pick up the medicine. The place to pick up the medicine was in the hall below. You can get it by flying down. There were also ingredients, clothes, quilts, and other daily necessities.
.
None of these are necessary for practitioners, but it can also be seen from this that the Demon Sect attaches great importance to and cares for alchemists to the extent that they are only needed.
Each alchemist needs to refine three furnaces of fixed elixirs every day, including two furnaces of healing elixirs and one furnace of solid elixirs for restoring magic power.
These are the most frequently used elixirs on the battlefield. In addition, it is the alchemist’s freedom to refine any elixirs he wants.
However, as long as the medicinal materials below are used to freely refine the elixir, the refined elixir will be given to the sect. Of course, the demon sect will also give the alchemist a certain reward to prevent the alchemist from wasting his efforts.
Of course, the alchemist can also choose not to give the elixir to the sect. In that case, he will have to pay for the herbs himself. Mu Qianyu pays for it every time he goes to get the elixir.
It's not that Old Man Xia doesn't want to contribute to the Demon Sect, it's that every potion of elixirs he uses freely explodes, and he blows himself up every time, without success.
"Why does this body-exploding pill never work? I've obviously calculated it well and the control is very precise."
Old Man Xia was blown to pieces and was scratching his messy but still lush hair.
Mu Qianyu and Fatty Lan in the kitchen next to them quietly poked their heads out, then quietly pulled back, looked at each other, and shook their heads.
"Fat brother, let's make today's dish a little richer. I look like I'm in a particularly bad mood." Mu Qianyu whispered.
"Don't worry about my cooking skills. Is the wine ready?" Fatty Lan was full of confidence in his cooking skills.
"Okay." Mu Qianyu responded and said, "But what kind of elixir is this body-exploding pill? Can't I just blow myself up?"
"Of course not, what do you know!" A voice like an explosion came from above Mu Qianyu's head.
When she looked up, she saw Old Man Xia's angry face, which was covered with gashes from the explosion and black ash.
"Alchemist, the food will be ready soon, please wait a moment." Mu Qianyu quickly took out a jar of Qianlixiang.
This wine is precious, and Old Man Xia is very poor because he spends money to buy elixirs all the time. He is often very excited when he sees the wine, but today he did not accept the wine, but said loudly:
"The body-exploding pill I want is a pill that can maximize the physical potential of those of us who practice magic. Even if the body explodes, it can remain intact. Do you understand this?"
Mu Qianyu knew that the most powerful power of these demonic cultivators lay in the body's repair power. As long as the heart was not broken, damage to any part of the body could be repaired.
Self-destruction is undoubtedly the most lethal, but if it explodes, it will also damage the Dantian and heart, and it cannot be resurrected.
If this elixir is really refined and the demon cultivators collectively self-destruct, how many righteous disciples will it take to stop it?
No wonder he keeps popping pills, this kind of pill is really scary.
"I want to be the first person in this demon sect to develop a body-exploding elixir. Don't worry, they are looking down on me now. Once this elixir comes out, the entire demon sect will make me their ancestor!" Old Man Xia
He raised his head and said very confidently.
Because he often exploded elixirs and did not deliver elixirs to the sect, and because he wasted too many medicinal materials, he was looked down upon by others, and it seemed that others did not think he could succeed.
"Geniuses are marginalized, do you understand?" Old Man Xia asked fiercely.
Mu Qianyu nodded mechanically, she probably couldn't explain it.
Her attitude made Old Man Xia very satisfied, so he became more interested in talking, and continued: "Let's just say that the super-grade spiritual root, as the number one bone in the world, is also looked down upon by others."
"That's because life is short. No one is willing to invest energy in a person who will not live to be eighteen." Mu Qianyu's words came almost smoothly.
"It's just because they never put in their energy that those geniuses died early. The world is ignorant and putting the cart before the horse. How ridiculous." Old Man Xia snorted coldly.
Mu Qianyu was stunned. What he said was not unreasonable.
"I just want to do this thing that no one has ever done, and walk this path that no one has ever walked before. This is what I call a hero. Only in this way can I create the strongest magic gate!"
"Now that the group of people are having a lot of fun, who will be Zixiao Daojun's opponent if they really start a fight?"
When Old Man Xia was talking, he took the wine, raised his head and started drinking. This was called frivolous.
But Mu Qianyu didn't feel that this person was making such wild claims. If that elixir really existed, the Demon Sect's combat effectiveness would increase several times, and it would probably be able to achieve great things.
It was a good choice for her to become a little boy this time. She wanted to keep an eye on this old man Xia, but she must not succeed. Even if he succeeded, she could not let this elixir spread.
"The dishes are ready!" Fatty Lan brought over the dishes he had made, four dishes and one soup, all of which were vegetarian.
"You're a good cook, why can't you learn a few meat dishes?" Old Man Xia couldn't help complaining when he saw the green vegetables on the table.
But having said that, I still picked up my chopsticks and started eating, because Fatty Blue cooked this dish to perfection, and even the vegetarian dish had a rich texture and taste.
Old Man Xia had never eaten such delicious vegetarian dishes, so even though he was angry that Fatty Lan didn't know how to cook meat, he didn't throw him away. Instead, he asked Gu Yunge to buy him some soy sauce meat.
Fatty Lan scratched his head and said, "When I was young, I was poor and had no meat at home so I could only cook vegetarian dishes. Now that I'm used to it, I'm used to it."
Mu Qianyu also sat on one side and picked up chopsticks.
Although Old Man Xia has a bad temper, he is not too arrogant and would let Mu Qianyu and Fatty Lan sit down at the table to drink and chat together.
Mu Qianyu's drinking capacity was really bad, so he almost always took hangover elixirs, otherwise he wouldn't know what he was revealing with his words.
"Fat brother, the vegetarian dishes you cook are simply the best I have ever tasted." Mu Qianyu praised sincerely.
