Chapter 741 The Secret of Qilin Valley
In Qilin Valley, there are small tests, medium tests and major tests every year.
These tests are said to be used to assess the disciples in the valley and improve their level.
But in fact, most of the effects are to eliminate disciples.
Disciples who are too weak will be driven out of Qilin Valley.
Not even qualified to do some chores in the valley.
At the end of the year, there is also the annual promotion assessment.
This promotion assessment is the real preparation for disciples’ promotion.
If the disciples in the valley want to take a step forward and officially take charge of their own business, they must perform well in the promotion assessment.
At least by refining the star-improving elixir, you can be promoted from a disciple in the valley to an alchemist.
After being promoted to Alchemist, you can set up your own cauldron to refine elixirs.
Really start to stand on your own.
On the second day of searching for medicinal materials, Master Gan, who was often invisible, actually called everyone together.
A group of people gathered in the attic of the study room.
Master Gan today seems to be much kinder than before.
In the past, I always had a dead face, but today I have a somewhat smiling face, which is not so ugly.
Shen Han looked at the other people around him. Except for the few disciples who were close to Master Gan, the others' faces were even more ugly today.
In the past, Pei Mao and the others were quite optimistic.
But today, something is really weird.
Now for Shen Han, it is time to start practicing.
I got the elixir recipe from the seniors of the Qin family, and I have also understood and mastered the techniques of the Qilin Valley elixir.
The most important thing now is to refine it yourself.
On paper, it is very simple and easy to understand.
But when you actually practice it, you will find the difficulties.
Now there are all kinds of medicinal materials in Qilin Valley, and you can get whatever you need in exchange for your contribution.
It would be more appropriate to try and verify it in Qilin Valley and make sure it works before leaving on your own.
Earning another one or two hundred contribution points, plus what you saved before, should be enough to exchange for the medicinal materials required for two auxiliary star elixirs.
Compared with elixirs, the cost of medicinal materials is much smaller.
From this we can also see the high profits of this Qilin Valley elixir.
While Shen Han was thinking, Master Gan, who was sitting in the middle, slowly stood up.
With a slight smile on his face: "I heard that your harvest yesterday was pretty good, and basically everyone found some medicinal materials.
It seems like someone earned nearly 500 contribution points in one go, which is good luck. "
Master Gan said, but the disciples below all buried their heads and did not answer.
Master Gan ignored this and continued to speak kindly.
“Senior Brother Bo, you will take part in the promotion assessment at the end of the year.
As everyone knows, you, Senior Brother Bo, are now very proficient in refining the Ruixing elixir. During the promotion test, you are preparing to refine the Star-improving elixir.
Belonging to the same lineage, we naturally support each other.
Everyone also made a lot of contributions yesterday, so they all gave some to Senior Brother Bo.
The ingredients for the star-improving elixir are still a bit expensive.
There is not so much time to earn contribution points. As his junior brothers and sisters, you have a much easier time and should help him more.
You also know how much benefit you, Senior Brother Bo, will get if you are promoted in one fell swoop this time. I don’t need to say more, right? "
Master Gan had a smile on his face, paused, and then spoke again.
“Actually, you all know that the road to refining medicine is extremely testing of talent.
You have made so many contributions, but they actually don’t mean much.
In exchange for medicinal materials, most of the time it is a waste.
After leaving Qilin Valley, I have no chance to get to know an alchemist like you, Senior Brother Bo, or even give me gifts. "
At this moment, Bo Xin, who was sitting in front, also turned his head and glanced at everyone.
There was a faint smile hanging on the corner of his mouth.
At this moment, Shen Han finally understood why Pei Mao and the others were so resentful of Bo Xin.
I also understand who the previous skin-picking king was talking about.
Everyone works hard to find medicinal materials in exchange for a meager contribution.
Good guy, according to Master Gan, it is harder to become Bo Xin, but it is easier for others.
Everyone works hard to earn contribution points in exchange for some learning opportunities.
This Bo Xin doesn’t have to work hard at all and has countless hours of study. What kind of hard work is this?
The good things are not expected of everyone, and the sufferings are all pushed out for everyone to share.
“If you have any other opinions, you can just say it. I am free today and can discuss it together.
If your contribution value is not enough, you can owe this part first and make up for it later.
In this year's promotion assessment, you, Senior Brother Bo, will most likely have to take another step forward.
When the time comes, it will also be your glory.
Let it be said that you are Bo Xin's junior brothers and sisters, and your faces will be bright. "
Master Gan continued to speak, he is indeed much kinder today.
But at this moment, Shen Han really felt this person's disgust.
When he was needed to guide others, he pretended to be dead.
When someone comes up to ask him a question, he acts like he can't hear and doesn't answer anything.
That senior brother Bo Xinbo has never fulfilled his responsibilities as a senior brother.
And Shen Han could feel that this senior brother looked down on other people and always looked at them with a look of disdain.
Such a senior brother, even if you have helped him, I am afraid he will not remember your kindness.
In my heart, I just feel that these are what you should give him.
Furthermore, no one comes to Qilin Valley not to improve themselves.
What do you spend resources on cultivating others for?
This time, Shen Han was not going to be spoiled or compromise.
At first, I didn’t expect anything from Master Ding. What I should learn has already been learned.
And what I learned was the orthodox alchemy method developed by the Qin family, not something like theirs that had many mistakes.
Secondly, I also need to contribute very much now.
I have now fully mastered the techniques and prescriptions of elixirs.
Staying here is just to exchange for a batch of medicinal materials and prepare to practice it once.
If you give up your contribution, you might as well leave Qilin Valley immediately.
“If you don’t have any objections, come up now. After giving your contribution to your senior brother Bo, you can go back.”
After Master Gan finished speaking, he sat down and waited for everyone to come forward.
This is a routine process every year, and it happens once every year.
No one is willing, but who dares to offend Master Gan like this?
He cannot bring benefits to everyone, but he can bring harm to everyone, but he is very capable.
As a gentleman of this lineage, he still has a lot of power.
If you are unwilling to contribute your own contribution value, you will cut off the way for everyone to earn contributions.
Let you follow him every day, wasting time.
The most strict one is that he can report it to the upper management of Qilin Valley to verify that if the disciple does not obey the teacher's teachings, the disciple will be kicked out of Qilin Valley.
With these powers, other people naturally have a lot of scruples about Master Gan.
But Shen Han was not afraid. He originally planned to leave Qilin Valley after a while.
"Hurry up, don't delay." Master Gan, who was sitting above, changed his expression slightly. Every year, he had to scold him twice before everyone would move.
Only this time, before others came forward to offer their contributions, Shen Han stood up and retorted.
“Master Gan, I have a problem with this.
I have come to Qilin Valley hard to learn the method of refining medicine, not to help others improve.
Senior Brother Bo Xin and I have only a superficial friendship, and our mutual friendship is far from enough to give him gifts and contributions to help him improve.
With this contribution value in hand, the junior still wants to use it to improve himself. "
Shen Han suddenly spoke, shocking everyone present.
I didn’t expect it to be said so directly. It was no longer a euphemistic way of saying it.
Pei Mao on the side was also frightened. The cold look in his eyes was relatively low-key.
For many things, I don’t care much about it, and I don’t argue with others.
But I didn’t expect that facing Master Gan, Shen Han would dare to directly stand up and object.
Hearing Shen Han's words, Master Gan, who was sitting down, frowned and stood up.
“Are you sure you don’t want to give it?”
“Junior has already made it clear that earning contribution points is far more difficult than Senior Brother Bo Xin’s practice, so I still want to use the contribution gained from this for myself.
If Master Gan feels that our life is easier than that of Senior Brother Bo Xin, then he can ask Senior Brother Bo Xin to swap with us. "
Hearing Shen Han's words, Master Gan's eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a bit of cruelty.
“Ignorant fool, do you really think they have an easy life?
Start studying and meditating every day before dawn. Do you think it is just like having fun every day?
It seems that this time, Master Zhongjin gave me a disciple who was not only stupid, but also disrespectful and without rules. "
Shen Han let him say whatever he wanted, but his expression remained unchanged.
“Master Gan, you don’t need to explain so much, their hard work is just a drop in the bucket compared to ours.
They are really tired, we can change with them. "
“If it really changes, can you reach the level of these senior brothers?”
“Then we need to try it for three months before we know whether we can do it.”
Every time Master Gan asked a question, Shen Han would reply directly.
Each sentence was answered to the point, making Master Gan's face become increasingly ugly.
Whether he loses the argument or wins the argument, as a master arguing with his disciple, he has already lost.
“I am the alchemist of Qilin Valley. Whether you can do it or not, I can tell at a glance.
If you were really good at it, you would have been lifted up high a long time ago.
The reason you are like this now is because you are not good enough. "
At this moment, Master Gan no longer had any scruples in speaking and wanted to suppress Shen Han.
“I heard that Master Gan was refining the elixir, and the success rate of the Auxiliary Star elixir was only about 50%.
Master Gan has known medicinal materials for over a hundred years, and it is difficult to control them even if he is so familiar with them.
Master's relationship with us lasts only a year or two, and a short period of time lasts only a few months.
This kind of knowledge can even be said to be unfamiliar.
How can Master Gan judge whether we can do it? "
Shen Han's words were like a raised flag, inserted into the hearts of everyone present.
Pei Mao and the others felt very unconfident about themselves because of Master Gan's contempt and derogation.
Thinking that the masters said they had no talent, that’s what I thought.
But what Shen Han just said seemed to pull everyone out of the quagmire.
Does Master Tagan know about them?
Has Master Tagan given any guidance to them?
Just as Shen Han said, it is difficult for him to control the medicinal materials that he is so familiar with.
Not to mention other unfamiliar people and things.
Each one of them even wanted to stand up and applaud Shen Han.
He just looked up at the extremely angry Master Gan and suppressed all these things.
Master Gan had already stepped down from the stage and walked up to Shen Han.
“The name is Shujiu, and it is true that the mouse is short-sighted and has no foresight.
A talented alchemist like your senior brother will definitely be on his own in the future.
Today you have made a contribution and gained the favor of a Qilin Valley alchemist.
You can ask how many people in the outside world want to please an alchemist, but they have no chance. "
Shen Han still looked calm.
“Master Gan, if what you say is true, you can ask outsiders to send some medicinal materials.
I don’t need this opportunity, I can give it to them. "
Come and go, no oil or salt enters.
“Others, do you also want to follow his example?
Learn to be short-sighted! "
Master Gan yelled at him, but everyone did not answer and protested silently against him.
With Shen Han standing in front of them, everyone seemed to have a little more courage.
“Okay, I can’t make sense to you. I’ll ask Master Zhongjin to come tomorrow.
You are the person he introduced, so let him speak. "
After saying a few words, Master Gan left angrily.
His personal disciples also left together at this moment.
And that senior fellow apprentice Bo Xinbo also walked up to Shen Han.
“I remember you, wait”
But before Bo Xin finished speaking, Shen Han waved his hand and left.
I don’t even bother to pay attention to him at all.
Leaving the study, Shen Han went directly to the Internal Affairs Cabinet.
Since everything has been said, let’s not delay it any further.
The contribution value in my hand is enough to buy a set of medicinal materials for the Pure Heart Pill.
Shen Han had planned to buy two sets at once to give himself some room for mistakes.
I am not well versed in the method of elixirs.
Even if you know the refining method, you may still make mistakes in its application.
But now I see that I am also short on time, so I can no longer endure it.
With the extra contribution points, Shen Han directly changed to a cauldron.
I will not borrow the cauldron from Gan Mansion and start trying it myself tonight.
Use all the contribution value at one time without retaining any of it.
Back in Ganfu, Shen Han went to the refining pharmacy.
Those diligent brothers that Master Gan mentioned before are not here.
They want to practice their skills and have a lot of resources, but how can they work hard after dark?
If other disciples were treated like this, they would probably come here every night to practice intensively.
The refining pharmacy is located far away from the rest area, so it is actually not that noticeable here.
On the other hand, it is over there at the residential hut. Making a little noise can easily attract people.
Without much hesitation, Shen Han began to refine it.
A refining pharmacy is actually an open space that provides a place for people to refine elixirs.
The Qilin Valley elixir does have its own special mysteries, and Shen Han agrees with this.
But the real refining method is not what Qu Zhongjin and the others have mastered.
Shen Han started refining the elixir as the Qin family's seniors had instructed.
Fortunately, I have some basics in refining medicine, so I am not completely in a hurry.
