"Hmm? This...this, how did you prepare these herbs?"
"It was prepared by Master Lin." Li Xingyi handed the piece of paper directly to Li Xingxiu.
Lin Che said as he placed the herbs:
"That's right, what I want to refine is the Marrow Cleansing and Bone Strengthening Pill."
"You, ah. Why are you doing this? I don't know where you got the recipe for the Marrow Cleansing and Bone Strengthening Pill, but the key here isn't the recipe. It's the experience of refining the pill. The amount of herbs, when to add them, how to control the fire, and the coordination of the zhenqi during the process. The slightest mistake will result in charcoal. That's still the best case scenario. In serious cases, the furnace might explode. If the pill fails to be refined, the pill will release poison, which is fatal..."
Li Xingxiu continued to persuade him earnestly, "Even the alchemists here find it difficult to refine the Marrow Cleansing and Bone Strengthening Pill. If you expect me to teach you once and you think you can learn it, then you are just dreaming."
"Don't even mention the complexity of alchemy. Even with folk cooking, if I give you a fish, can you make Yunzhou's most famous fresh fish head soup? No way!"
BANG!!
Before Li Xingxiu could finish his words, Lin Che had already started lighting the flint and heating the stove.
He moved very quickly, even holding the burning flint in his hand and placing it on the stove, not afraid of being burned by the flames at all.
Then he grabbed the first medicinal materials that were put into the furnace with a grab in the air.
The interior of the furnace is very complicated. Many medicinal materials cannot be simply poured in like boiling medicine. There are many grids inside. When the fire is right, the medicinal materials in that grid will be burned.
The scent released by the medicinal herbs needs to be integrated.
Therefore, during the alchemy process, it is also necessary to use true qi to block and catalyze...
"Huh?" Li Xingxiu couldn't help but let out a slight sound of surprise when he saw Lin Che's technique, then nodded.
Everyone present was a doctor, and half of them were alchemists.
They could naturally see that Lin Che's technique was very skillful...even more skillful than theirs.
Everyone looked at each other, unable to believe that Lin Che was actually an alchemist.
Judging from his technique, he must have at least thirty years of experience...
wrong.
Lin Che doesn't look like he's thirty years old. Besides, isn't the method for refining the Marrow Cleansing and Bone Strengthening Pill unique to their Li family?
How come Lin Che can do that too?
Impossible!
Li Xingxiu immediately looked at Li Xingyi, his eyes asking what was going on. But Li Xingyi was also surprised, her mouth slightly open, as if something could be stuffed in...
Swish, swish, swish.
Lin Che once again added the herbs. Every movement was no longer skillful or neat, but rather natural.
Normally, even their alchemists had to be extremely cautious in this process, but Lin Che completed it in just one breath.
Normally, it would take them half a day to even warm up the furnace. Now, Lin Che placed one hand on the furnace, and flames actually burned on his hand. He finished warming the furnace in just half a minute.
Everyone felt the heat waves approaching and they all stepped back a few meters.
An hour later, all the herbs were put in, and the furnace began to emit a familiar smell.
Many elders who heard the news widened their eyes. This smell was clearly a symbol of the pill being ready.
"No way? Could it be that he, he really knows how to make an elixir? Or is it our family's marrow cleansing and bone-destroying elixir?"
Another half an hour later, the most critical step came.
Often at this step, many alchemists will fail and the furnace will explode.
Buzz buzz buzz.
The entire alchemy furnace began to tremble. There was a powerful force gathering inside, as if it was about to break out at any time.
Lin Che took a step forward and clapped his hands fiercely.
BANG!!
The fire in the furnace went out, and a wave of air spread out from the furnace to the surroundings.
"Done?"
Everyone's eyes widened. This final step was so easy! Just how far had Lin Che's alchemy skills reached?
Lin Che wiped the sweat from his forehead. It seems that he has succeeded!
"Watch carefully."
Others who wanted to take out the pills had to wait for the furnace to cool down, and opening it casually was also very risky. But Lin Che was extremely skilled and opened the furnace lid in one go.
Lingkong stretched out his hand and grabbed the three pills out.
It is golden all over and exudes an attractive luster.
It is the marrow cleansing and bone strengthening pill.
Lin Che did not delay and threw one by one to the three people standing in front of him, one of which was thrown to Li Xingxiu.
Li Xingxiu took the pill in his hand and felt its scorching heat and its extremely rich smell.
He was shocked again: "This, this pill is actually of the best quality. Top quality..."
"It's really top-grade. What we refine is probably mid-grade at best, right?" Several elders couldn't wait and took it to check.
According to their judgment, this pill is indeed a top-grade marrow-cleansing and bone-strengthening pill.
This means that Lin Che’s alchemy skills…are definitely above theirs, and far surpass theirs.
"Master Li, right?"
Lin Che saw that they had almost finished looking. After such a long time, it was finally his turn to speak.
"Today, I came here to do one thing: to refine the ultimate Marrow Cleansing and Bone Strengthening Pills. Starting from Yunzhou, I will dominate the pill shop business in the entire Sixteen States of Yanyun!"
"From now on, we're rivals. For Miss Li Xingyi's sake, I'll be gentle. Don't worry!"
