Chapter 265 Thank you for the medicine
Although it cannot be used as a daily move, it can still be used as a trump card in a pinch.
Looking at the boxing skills again, there is still 28% left before you can create your own moves.
Judging from the results of the sword technique, the boxing technique should also be very strong.
It seems that Tian Daheng has to find a few more boxing secret books. When the time comes, one sword technique and one boxing move, even if the first or second level of Shenwu Realm comes, there will still be a chance to fight hard.
The next day.
In the afternoon, someone came to Zaibanglou again and delivered half a cart of medicinal materials, which were exactly what Jiang Lin had mentioned before.
These medicinal materials can be used to refine an elixir called Bafang Zhendan, which is recorded in the secret book of the alchemist who contributed to the eighth level of martial arts.
The level is not high and can only be used to increase the cultivation level below the ninth level of martial arts, which is meaningless to Jiang Lin.
But it is most suitable for verifying alchemy skills.
After tempering, quenching, and sharpening the weapon on his hand, Jiang Lin just threw it on the iron table without even looking at it. It was a top-grade weapon that outsiders dreamed of.
After cracking the secret recipe of the treasure weapon, the biggest effect of these things on Jiang Lin was to improve his proficiency in various skills.
On the contrary, those materials that are not of high grade but have not been seen before are valued more.
As long as there are enough types of materials, Jiang Lin thinks that even magic weapons can be forged directly.
His completely different way of blacksmithing shocked the entire foundry department.
If an ordinary blacksmith wants to make good weapons, the surest way is to find top-quality materials and combine them with his own skills to achieve a higher level.
Unlike Jiang Lin, who directly uses pig iron as the base and then smelts different materials to improve quality through quantity.
Its principle is something that many blacksmiths cannot understand.
Some people have tried it, but only after incorporating three materials, the weapon became loose, cracked, and scrapped on the spot.
Not to mention improving the quality, it’s still great if it can’t be lowered.
After many attempts, these blacksmith masters completely gave up the idea of pursuing Mr. Jiang in the same way.
After learning that Jiang Lin was preparing to make elixirs, many blacksmiths came to join in the fun, and some happily organized games to start gambling.
"Master Jiang, you can only pay one for one if you can successfully refine the elixir? Then who will bet with you? It's boring. If you have the ability, you can pay ten for one, and I will cover the coffin!"
"You lose five for a complete failure? I'll bet two taels of silver!"
"Those two taels you threw away were in vain. I think half of them will fail. Paying one to two is pretty good. Just save one tael of silver."
There are very few people who are willing to overpower Jiang Lin and fail.
Although they all feel that blacksmiths and alchemists have nothing to do with each other, no matter how talented you are in blacksmithing, you won't achieve much.
But considering that Mr. Jiang always does some amazing things, many people have to be patient and choose to wait and see.
The organizer looked at Blacksmith Qi and asked, "Master Qi, don't you press a little bit?"
Blacksmith Qi said with a smile: "If Mr. Jiang can do it, I will pay for all your belongings even if you pay one tael of silver more."
The person who organized the game smiled. He was not stupid.
At this time, Jiang Lin sorted out the medicinal materials, and then according to the still hazy thoughts in his heart, he threw them all into the Hengyu furnace.
Many blacksmiths were surprised. To make an elixir, you just throw in all the medicinal materials? Isn't this the same as burning firewood?
Can this also make elixirs?
However, few people still think Jiang Lin will fail. Maybe this is Mr. Jiang's unique secret.
Jiang Lin controlled the temperature of the fire, but he was not too clear in his mind. He always felt that the temperature might be a bit high, and when it dropped, he felt it was a bit too low.
Not long after, a burning smell came from the stove, and a large amount of black smoke came out, which made everyone cover their noses and run away.
Even Jiang Lin was smoked out. He scratched his scalp and went back until the Hengyu furnace melted and swallowed all the medicinal materials.
When everyone saw this scene, they couldn't help but look at each other.
"Is this considered a failure?"
"Nonsense, I didn't realize that there was no burnt dregs left, Mr. Jiang has started to re-sort the medicinal materials. Hurry, pay for it!"
The blacksmith who set up the game seemed to have taken gall. He could lose?
But those who made money looked happy and proud.
"It has been said that there are mountains across the world. Mr. Jiang is a real genius in blacksmithing and martial arts. If you don't listen to the old man's words, you will suffer the consequences!"
Seeing that Jiang Lin was about to start refining alchemy for the second time, the people who had won the money all asked with a smile: "What's the matter, are you still betting?"
The blacksmith turned around and saw Jiang Lin stuffing a large amount of medicinal materials into the furnace again. He was still willing to form a game. Isn't this equivalent to throwing money into the water?
Even Qi Tiejiang, who had the most confidence in Jiang Lin, was muttering in his heart at this moment. Could it be that the so-called Danxiang Tiancheng was just a rumor?
Or maybe no matter how talented you are, you still need a master to lead you in. After all, this is alchemy, which is much more difficult than blacksmithing.
A blacksmith apprentice can get started in three or two years if he is diligent and smart.
But apprentices of alchemists may still be on the road to identifying medicinal materials in ten or eight years, and there are many who can't get into the profession in twenty or thirty years.
This thing tests one's personal understanding and talent more than blacksmithing, even if it's even slightly different.
"I really don't know why Mr. Jiang suddenly wants to make elixirs. How can it be so easy to make elixirs? Besides, there is no one to teach him. If he could make it by himself, there would be alchemists all over the streets."
"Who says it's not the case? Look at Mr. Jiang's method. All the medicinal materials are thrown into the stove, regardless of the nature of the medicine or the year. Even if I don't know anything about alchemy, I know that this will definitely not work."
"Master Qi, please say something."
Blacksmith Qi smiled bitterly, what can he say?
It can't be said that he also thinks Jiang Lin is wasting medicinal materials.
The alchemist himself has never seen it, but he has seen pills made by ordinary pharmacists.
They are all steamed first, the medicinal properties are blended into the medicinal soup, and then slowly simmered.
The steps are complicated and time-consuming, and you must be careful step by step, otherwise all your efforts may be wasted.
Forget it, even if you know it won't work, you can't let Mr. Jiang's prestige fall again and again.
Thinking of this, Blacksmith Qi immediately said: "Okay, stop hanging around. Are you done with today's work? But don't forget, the day of elimination for the last place is coming soon. If you don't contribute enough then, don't blame me for being unkind!" ”
Everyone felt that it was not interesting, and they were still dizzy from the smoke, so they left obediently.
In the blink of an eye, there was no one around the blacksmith shop.
Jiang Lin didn't care about this.
It doesn't matter to him whether someone sees it or not. What matters is how to make the elixir.
A new batch of medicinal materials was put into it, and Jiang Lin controlled the fire temperature more carefully. This time, there seemed to be a flash of inspiration in his mind, and it was no longer as vague as before.
In the burning flames, the medicinal materials melted quickly like winter snow under the scorching sun, and then became connected with each other.
If a real alchemist came to see it, he would definitely be surprised.
Medicinal materials with different characteristics and different years can be combined so naturally and quickly, which is simply incredible.
Others refine it one by one, but no one can cook it in such a big pot as Jiang Lin.
After a while, the concoction gradually shrank as it boiled, and quickly condensed into particles.
A faint medicinal fragrance gradually floated out of the furnace, no longer as pungent as when it failed before.
Jiang Lin had an intuition in his heart that it would happen this time!
Sure enough, the fire went out soon after, leaving only three light blue, round pills.
He took it out with tongs and examined it in the palm of his hand.
[Elixirs of average quality can improve cultivation] [Skill 6: Alchemy Lv3 (Proficiency 3/80)]
Jiang Lin was slightly happy. If there was a comment, it meant success.
From the shape point of view, it is perfect, the whole body is crystal clear, and it looks like a light cyan glass bead.
On its surface, there are seven complicated lines.
Jiang Lin wasn't sure what it meant. After thinking about it, he picked one up and put it in his mouth.
The elixir melts in the mouth, and it is no different from taking Jiuyao Dan or Baose Dan.
It's just that the potency of the medicine after dissolving is not very much, and it is completely absorbed almost in the blink of an eye.
Jiang Lin silently felt the potency of the medicine and estimated that it contained about 23% of the Jiuyao Pill.
Although it is small, the medicinal materials used are not expensive. If they are refined in batches and eaten as snacks, they will still be useful.
Looking up in the direction of the blacksmith shop, Jiang Lin took the remaining two and walked over there.
Entering the blacksmith shop, a group of blacksmiths quickly greeted: "Master Jiang."
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Someone who was brave and familiar asked with a smile: "Why doesn't Mr. Jiang continue to make alchemy?"
Another kind-hearted person comforted him and said: "Master Jiang, don't be impatient. Alchemy is different from blacksmithing and requires long-term training. You have no one to teach you, so just take your time."
"It's not difficult. It's been made. Let's find someone to try it out." Jiang Lin said.
What he relies on to make alchemy is not experience or understanding, but probability.
Level 3 nine-turn success increases the success rate of primary alchemy to 80% and the success rate of intermediate alchemy to 30%.
The first failure shows that Jiang Lin's luck is not very good, and there is an 80% chance of failure.
When he heard that he had successfully refined it, the blacksmiths and apprentices around him were stunned.
Done? Real or fake? They had just come back to work, and some of them hadn't even heated up the stove yet.
Jiang Lin looked at everyone and asked, "Who is willing to try this elixir? It can improve your martial arts cultivation."
Everyone quickly shrank their necks, not daring to answer the question.
Are you kidding? With your hodgepodge of alchemy techniques, if you say you have made it so quickly, who would dare to eat it?
It's not a big deal if they eat a bad thing, but what if they eat someone to death? They don't want to live long.
Seeing no one responded, Blacksmith Qi gritted his teeth and walked over, saying: "I'll give it a try!"
A blacksmith next to him subconsciously tried to pull him away. Everyone knew that Blacksmith Qi was trying to maintain Mr. Jiang's prestige, but there was no need to risk his life.
Blacksmith Qi, however, turned sideways to avoid the opponent's hand and walked straight to Jiang Lin.
Seeing him looking at death as if he were at home, Jiang Lin couldn't help but feel funny and said: "Master Qi, don't be afraid, the elixir I refined should be pretty good."
The smile that Blacksmith Qi forced out was a little forced. He wanted to say that he believed in Mr. Jiang's ability, but his throat felt dry, as if it was stuck together, and he couldn't say anything.
Especially when he thought about being dizzy just now, Tiejiang Qi's eyes suddenly turned red.
If he really dies at Master Jiang's hands today, I just hope that he can be more cautious in the future and not be too ambitious.
In this case, his death will not be in vain.
Gritting his teeth, Blacksmith Qi stretched out his hand.
Jiang Lin felt the doubtful and worried eyes around him and did not explain out loud. He just waited for the results to come out and everything would become clear.
After Blacksmith Qi took the light blue Bafang True Pill, he was slightly startled. This pill...
It seems to look good?
You don't have to get too close to smell the faint medicinal fragrance.
A glimmer of hope arose in his heart. Maybe he might not die?
Taking a deep breath, Blacksmith Qi put the elixir into his mouth. Before he could taste it, the potion melted.
To Jiang Lin, the power of this medicine was insignificant, but for Qi Blacksmith, a second-level martial artist, it was astonishingly large.
The power of the medicine surged through the body like a wild bull. Blacksmith Qi had never had such energy before. The skin all over his body burst open, and traces of blood instantly turned him into a bloody man.
The pain of his meridians being forcibly stretched made him couldn't help but scream.
The people around them couldn't care less about their work, so they quickly gathered around and shouted anxiously: "Master Qi!"
"Quick, go and ask the pharmacist!"
Others looked at Jiang Lin and hesitated to speak.
They didn't dare to blame, but the meaning in their eyes was very clear.
Mr. Jiang is confused. Master Qi is so loyal to him, how can he be allowed to test the medicine?
If someone is killed, not only will the prestige be greatly damaged, but also such a reliable master will be lost. What a shame!
What they couldn't understand even more was that someone wanted to ask for a pharmacist, but was stopped by Jiang Lin.
"Master Jiang?"
"Don't worry, Master Qi is fine. He just can't bear the power of the medicine for a while. He will be fine after he gets used to it." Jiang Lin said.
Several master blacksmiths were anxious, but they did not dare to disobey Jiang Lin, so they could only stare.
At this time, Blacksmith Qi was covered in blood and looked very scary.
Screams followed one after another, and some of the new apprentices were so frightened that their faces turned pale.
Didn’t you say that Mr. Jiang is very gentle and never makes things difficult for others?
Why do you treat human life so little?
Could it be that those rumors are all false?
Jiang Lin didn't care what others thought, he stared at Blacksmith Qi, always paying attention to his condition.
His cultivation at the ninth level of the Yuanwu Realm was enough for him to see through Blacksmith Qi's entire body.
A large amount of medicinal power was converted into cultivation, which made Qi Tiejiang vomit blood. However, instead of weakening, his Qi and blood continued to improve with the supplement of medicinal power.
From the second level of martial arts, he broke through the third level in an instant, and then reached the fourth level very quickly.
At this point, the release of the drug's power is considered to have weakened.
Gradually, Blacksmith Qi stopped screaming and only gasped for breath.
Some people began to feel the power of his aura and couldn't help but said in shock: "Master Qi, has he made a breakthrough?"
The stronger your martial arts cultivation, the stronger the medicine you can withstand.
After a moment, Blacksmith Qi exhaled a long breath, the sound was like thunder, he had already reached the fifth level of martial arts, fish and dragon realm!
This long roar shocked the entire blacksmith shop into silence.
Everyone looked horrified, what kind of cultivation is this?
Even Jiang Lin was a little surprised. He thought that with one pill, he could be promoted to the fourth level of martial arts, but he didn't expect that he could reach the fifth level.
It seems that this medicine is effective!
Then, Blacksmith Qi opened his eyes, which were bright and radiant, completely different from the terrifying appearance of a bloody man.
Feeling the power of his own cultivation, even though he didn't know what state he had reached, Blacksmith Qi was still very excited.
He looked at Jiang Lin and bowed his hands excitedly: "Thank you, Mr. Jiang, for giving me the medicine, otherwise I may not be able to reach this level in this life!"
