Dou Po: I was followed by Xiao Yan after retiring the engagement

Chapter 308 What Is A Really Excellent Alchemist
Nalan Yanran looked at Su Jue, "What's your answer?"

How could Su Jue know?He has been practicing with his eyes closed, and he has never listened to Yun Xing's class. In fact, in the eyes of the students in Class A, there is no need to memorize so much knowledge about these medicinal materials, as long as they have the correct formula and enough fire control ability and soul ability , you can successfully refine the third-grade elixir, so there is no need to memorize the attributes of some useless medicinal materials one by one.

And some medicinal materials, they will never even use them in their entire lives.

Many students have learned the knowledge of refining medicine for several years, and they are already tired and tired. If they have this time, they might as well find some medicine prescriptions and start refining medicine materials directly.

As for Su Jue, he became a third-rank pharmacist like Yun Xing at a young age, so he didn't need to study under his hands at all. It would be a waste of time to take classes here, so he might as well go directly to refining medicine and challenge the fourth-rank Elixir.

"I don't know?" Nalan Yanran curled her lips, she was not angry or educated him, but looked at other students, "What about you? Don't you know any of them?"

"Well, I seem to know...but I'm not sure if I'm right." A student hesitated and said, "The stem of the Earth Spirit Qiulian is six inches long, but the leaves are more than eight inches long. Therefore, the autumn lotus is not enough to absorb the spiritual energy of the world, so there are very few stamens..."

Nalan Yanran nodded in satisfaction, "That's right, because of this, the earth spirit autumn lotus bears very few fruits, and the autumn lotus fruit is sweet and flat in nature, so it has no effect on most attribute practitioners, so even if it belongs to the middle-level medicinal material , and rarely appear in Danfang, even Warcraft sneered at it."

Several students nodded, and then said, "So?"

They didn't understand why such a question could determine whether to become her student.

"But..." Nalan Yanran stretched out her palm, only to see a clear earth spirit autumn lotus condensed from the cyan douqi. The lotus blooms brilliantly without the cover, and when the stamens that fully absorb the spiritual energy and sunlight bear fruit, each fruit is plump and beautiful, which is three times larger than the current autumn lotus.

"Some medicinal materials actually need outside help if they want to grow well. The earth spirit autumn lotus has a strong reproductive ability, which is why they are not difficult to see even if the number of stamens and fruits is very small. Thousands of years ago it It once co-parasitized with a kind of larvae, whose leaves are the food for the larvae, and the larvae are responsible for helping them eat the big leaves that block the autumn lotus."

"But after eating the autumn lotus leaves, won't the larvae start to touch the stamens and fruits of the autumn lotus?" a student suddenly asked.

"That's right, but the autumn lotus leaf contains a substance that can make the larvae grow rapidly. When the body of the larvae is fat enough for birds to see, it will be picked up by the adult bird and fed to the young bird, and the young bird will grow into an adult bird." Afterwards, it will come to eat the autumn lotus fruit, excrete its seeds to other places, and grow new earth spirit autumn lotus bushes."

"Then why don't you see that kind of larva in the Earth Spirit Qiulian now?" The student who answered the question asked curiously again. It was the first time they had heard of this natural law of circular feeding, and they found it very strange.

"Natural selection, survival of the fittest. With the emergence of other rare and exotic grasses in the mainland, even the parasitic larvae and spirit eaters will choose a better way of survival. Discarding it will make it overly fat and be killed by birds. The autumn lotus leaves that were taken away were turned into other medicinal materials, and because of this, the earth spirit autumn lotus became the current tragedy, but as time passed, no one knew about it." Nalan smiled sweetly.

"That's why."

Several students looked at each other in blank dismay. They didn't expect that the earth spirit autumn lotus became a useless medicinal material that was despised by others, and it only existed because of the preference of the spirit-eating insects.

"As for why Earth Spirit Qiulian is an intermediate medicinal material." Nalan Yanran folded her arms and said lightly. Not only were the students surprised by what she said, even Yun Xing couldn't help but nodded, his eyes full of admiration for her.

"Once freed from the shackles of autumn lotus leaves, the juice crushed from the truly mature autumn lotus fruit can have the effect of reconciling the energy riots of the pills. Whether it is fire-type pills or ice-type pills, when energy appears during the refining process When there is a riot, just add an appropriate amount of autumn lotus juice to stabilize the energy of the riot and increase the chance of successful refining."

"I didn't expect that the really mature autumn lotus fruit would have this effect. There are some medicinal materials that can have the same effect, but because of the scarcity and high price, few alchemists are willing to buy and use them, but if you grow a batch yourself Wouldn't the cheap and easy-to-find Earth Spirit Qiulian save you a lot of trouble?"

The students couldn't help talking about it, and some even planned to buy some Earth Spirit Qiulian after class, so that they could study it.

"Then isn't Qiulian fruit equivalent to a cheating tool?" Su Jue suddenly said disdainfully, "A really good alchemist doesn't need this kind of medicinal material, right? The question is, there will be no such thing as an energy riot at all, even if there is a riot due to poor technology, adding this autumn lotus fruit will affect the quality of the elixir, right?"

Nalan Yanran raised her eyebrows, "The real purpose of the autumn lotus fruit is not to make the alchemist forcefully increase the success rate of the elixir."

Su Jue was taken aback, "What is that?"

Her crimson lips curled up, "It is to allow the pharmacist to better judge where the problem of the pill formula is from the dosage of autumn lotus juice added when researching new prescriptions, and to avoid going too far." What a crooked way to waste medicinal materials."

"A pharmacist should master more and more knowledge of medicinal materials. Only by using autumn lotus fruit, which is an excellent medicinal material for judging the problem of Danfang, will he not wander around because of too little knowledge of medicinal materials. And better A good pharmacist should learn to take advantage of this convenience to innovate and create elixir recipes, so as to make the whole pharmacy industry progress."

The reason why there are fewer and fewer people making medicine in the Douqi Continent is because the number of times the pills are used is limited, and it takes a long and troublesome time to research new pills. One generation, one generation is not as good as one generation.

One thing that Canaan Academy has done very well is that it has never given up on imparting the knowledge of alchemy. Even if it has become a third-rank alchemist, it still has to study theoretical courses.

"Students, practice is indeed essential, but if you leave the basic theoretical knowledge, your future will be limited after all. Accommodating more knowledge of refining medicine, learning to integrate it, accumulating thick and thin, is what you young people should learn first , otherwise you are just a medicine cauldron that can make medicine by yourself, and you can't be called a real pharmacist."

She glanced at Su Jue lightly, and then looked away, "Although Old Teacher Yun is a third-rank pharmacist, his knowledge is wide enough. Even the fifth- and sixth-rank pharmacists outside may not know the maturity of Earth Spirit Qiulian." The fruit has this effect, and you should feel lucky to have such a knowledgeable mentor."

Su Jue blushed slightly, how could she not know that Nalan Yanran was talking about him?He had been looking down on Yun Xing since he became a third-grade pharmacist, but now that he was secretly awakened by Nalan Yanran, he felt a little ashamed in his heart.
