Accompany Da Vinci's Super God Day

Heidi is just an abbreviation.

This name, this surname, and her mastery of the German language are enough to prove many things.

"Say it again?"

"I'm an alchemist." Heidi said in a deep voice, "I'm not the so-called witch you mentioned."

She was a Hollywood actress in her previous life, and she starred in "The Demon Fairy", which was popular all over the world. She knows best what tone and posture she should use when saying such things.

When a person is lying, he must be able to lie to himself.

Da Vinci staggered, as if he had suddenly figured out something, his expression was complicated but relieved, and his body relaxed a lot.

"Alchemist." Lorenzo said lightly, "How to prove it?"

"Witches are evil because they are rumored to bring plagues and harm babies," Heidi said, looking into his eyes, "but I can make potions, cure diseases, and even save many people."

The existence of alchemy has always been quite subtle.

On the one hand, people admit their greed and want to turn stones into gold and obtain endless wealth, but on the other hand, they are afraid that others will waste their only resources and wealth for the same reason.

Because of this, it is not only a forbidden technique banned by the Holy See hundreds of years ago, but also popular in Europe. Until the birth and fame of many scientists in the [-]th century, they were fascinated by it to a crazy degree.

"If I were a witch, there are many things that only I can do." Heidi was surprisingly calm at this moment, and even her posture became much more natural.

She's totally into the role.

"But if I tell the principle and prescription of making the potion, then anyone can accomplish the same thing based on the principle."

Lorenzo smiled, and suddenly said, "Arecio."

The side door of the office was suddenly opened, and the boss of the pharmacy was pushed out by the servants, stumbled and almost fell.

He looked at Heidi in a little surprise, and then at Lorenzo: "My lord, how could she be a witch?"

"You also speak for her?" Lorenzo spoke slowly, with a velvety texture in his voice: "Having a pretty face really makes life very easy."

Another familiar affront.

"Get out that piece of ore of yours."

Alessio worriedly checked whether Heidi was injured, and took out a piece of white ore from his pocket.

Its edges are still slightly blue, obviously the water has not been completely evaporated.

"Scoop out some of Mr. Da Vinci's paint."

The attendant brought a silver spoon, and scooped out a spoonful of crumbs with a cautious expression. The color on it was vivid and full, as if it was a witch's poison.

"Alchemy, there is no such thing as creating something from nothing." Lorenzo said calmly, "Miss Keithler, how do you want to explain its color?"

Da Vinci's expression turned pale. He tried to stand in front of Heidi, but was held down by the attendant.

"Water, and fire." Heidi said softly.

Alchemy in this era originated in ancient Egypt, and then many derivative techniques were passed from distant Arabia.

It is the birthplace of chemistry and the birthplace of many original classics.

In the ancient Greek period, the ancient philosophers Socrates, Plato and others conducted a philosophical exposition on this secret technique and created the "Four Liquids Theory" which is popular today.

Everything in the world is composed of four elements.

- air, water, earth, fire.

"Arecio, you grind that white stone into powder and put some in the spoon too," she said.

The lord raised his chin slightly, and the attendants released the boss.

Arecio was actually quite afraid of witches in his heart, but he did it right away.

He took the knife from the servant and scraped off half a teaspoon of pale white stone powder.

"Put five drops of clear water into this spoon, and heat it over a candle."

The servant brought the candle over. Alessio took a deep breath, put the tea spoon on top of the candle, and baked the bottom of the porcelain spoon with the outer flame.

If... If she was really a witch, not only Da Vinci might be flogged, but he might also suffer.

It has to be blue.

Something wonderful happened.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the solution on the spoon was heated to the point of bubbling, and the blue water appeared in front of their eyes out of thin air.

The spoon was too hot to hold, and the temperature of the solution was also rising.

"Take it away—" Heidi subconsciously said, "If you reheat it, it will change back again!"

Arecio's veins were already popping up, but he was afraid of the majesty of the lord, so he only looked at Lorenzo for help.

"take away."

But it was still a little late.

That blue didn't last long due to the overheating, and now some have turned back to white.

"As you can see." Heidi turned to look at him and said, "I didn't deceive you."

"Even if you put me in a dungeon, follow this step and do it yourself, the result will be the same."

"Why water?" Lorenzo frowned, "Why did it change back again?"

This problem is a little tricky.

At this moment, Heidi's nerves were highly tense, and her back was covered with cold sweat as she was thinking.

It was impossible for her to explain to him the specific changes in water molecules, nor could she explain the difference between anhydrous copper sulfate and copper sulfate pentahydrate.

The pretty girl took a deep breath and finally opened her mouth.

"When people lose blood, they also turn pale."

"The same goes for stones."

Lorenzo rubbed his chin, and suddenly remembered the many rumors he had heard in the court.

The emperors of Britain and France raised many alchemists, and some even became dukes.

"What else do you have?"

In fact, he had already made up his mind, but he still showed an unfathomable expression, appreciating the fear that the girl tried to hide.

"Give me a reason to keep you."

Heidi thought that he still wanted to kill herself, or send herself to the Holy See to be tortured to death, and her face paled instantly.

She constantly controlled her breathing and tone, trying to be as calm as possible.

"I can give you many things you need."

"Oh?" Lorenzo laughed: "When did the Medici family lack something?"

This sounds a bit overwhelming.

"The utensils you seized me are the experimental products I used to synthesize drugs." Heidi said with emphasis: "If the manufacture is successful, it can save countless incurable diseases, such as diphtheria and anthrax-when the war breaks out, It also stops inflammation and abscesses in wounds."

The lord narrowed his eyes slightly.

He could vaguely sense that she wasn't lying.

"If it's about entertainment, I can create many new gadgets, even a piano that can play music automatically."

Heidi turned her head to look at the two friends who looked concerned, and lowered her voice, "Even if you don't trust me, please don't punish them."

"They and I are not acquaintances."

"Can't do alchemy?" Lorenzo asked.

...Should I deceive him?

Heidi seemed to suddenly stand at a cliff-like three-way intersection in her heart.

If he said no, she might not be of any value to him, and would directly die.

If she said yes...she definitely couldn't do it.

"will not."

"That is the ultimate mystery. Before I learned it, my teacher passed away."

The atmosphere fell into an uneasy silence.

"You can stay."

Lorenzo stood up slowly.

"From today onwards, the Medici family will hire you as their royal alchemist and give you fifty florins every year."

"—You will have your own room and enough followers."

Da Vinci was obviously relieved, and sat down directly beside him.

He had seen many poor women drowned and stabbed with needles, and he sincerely did not want another tragedy in Florence.

I... I haven't agreed yet.

Wait, fifty florins—fifty guineas?How much is fifty gold coins? !

Heidi came back to her senses and saluted hurriedly and clumsily.

"Thank you my lord."

Lorenzo obviously didn't intend to talk to the three of them anymore, and strode away.

Arecio cheered, and Da Vinci also came over and patted her on the shoulder.

A girl who narrowly escaped death is still counting money on her fingers.

A gold coin is 120 Soldi, and I work for 65 Soldi for a month. The sum is... how much?

The author has something to say: Heidi: Mathematics is really bald.

Da Vinci (sighing silently): Such a smart and capable maid was snatched away just like that...

【January 1, manuscript deposit notes】

Checked the timetable again, it's late 1478, lynching witches hasn't been legalized yet, but something has happened.

The reference given by Baidu Encyclopedia is that since 1480, the wave of witch trials began to sweep and incite each other.

The witch trials (also known as witch hunts) were one of the ways in which medieval Christianity persecuted its so-called heretics, and the victims were mostly women.The main purpose is to maintain the authority of the Pope and eradicate heresy.

Before the Middle Ages, women had always been highly respected in the traditional Germanic cultural areas, especially women who made medicine, practiced medicine, and could read and write.During the development of Christianity in the Germanic region at the beginning of the Middle Ages, the church believed that according to Christian teachings, women should be absolutely subordinate to men.The church belittles and vilifies women, fabricates images of witches, persecutes women, and even burns so-called "witches" alive.

In 1484, Pope Innocent VIII issued an edict: "(Witches) must never be forgiven, they are heinous and licentious." Afterwards, he mobilized all the clergy to participate in the suppression of witches.

In 1486, two priests, Heinrich and Jacob, wrote "The Witch's Hammer", which listed many ways to identify witches in detail, and launched the massive "European Witch Trials".

For the first time, this book summarizes the popular knowledge about demons and witchcraft in the 15th century, and even provides various detailed methods such as how to identify witches and how to report them. It has become the "Bible" for hunting witches. The rumors about witches recorded in the book were all blind people took it as fact - which meant that thousands of women were innocently burned at the stake.
