Chapter 389: The Crazy Killer Lu Sizhong
Distinguish the truth and refine the theory!
In the center of the holy city, on an ancient stone platform.
In the center of the stone platform, there stands a stele.
There are two sentences on the letter: The debater has his own way, and he discusses the past and present in alchemy.
This existed when the Dan Domain was founded, or to be more precise, the birth of the entire Dan Domain started from here.
When Dan Domain was not yet established, there were a dozen alchemists who exchanged their experiences in alchemy here. Later, more and more alchemists came to participate. With the gradual expansion of its influence, the prototype of Dan Domain was finally formed, and now Dan Domain is now available.
For all alchemists, this stone platform is a holy place.
The sixteen quaint stone pillars on both sides of the stone platform were where the sixteen alchemists who first participated in the exchange sat.
Debating here is meant to comfort our ancestors.
At the same time, in every city in the Dan Domain, wherever there were Dan Towers, a large number of alchemists gathered, waiting for the debate to begin.
Distinguish the Tao and refine the theory.
It is a competition among six sects. Even the masters have their own theoretical factions and cannot serve as referees. Only all the alchemists in the entire Dan Domain can judge together.
All third-rank alchemists can vote for the contestant they support, and the contestant with the most votes will win.
In the past, in order to count the votes, the results would take a day to come out.
However, this year's debate on the Dao and the Refining of the Law has the technical support and sponsorship of Sihai Commercial Bank, which has also obtained the broadcasting rights and can broadcast the contestants' speeches and live performances on the Lingwang.
At the same time, Sihai Trading Company also sent people to various places in Danyu. After counting the votes in each city, they were immediately collected to the Holy City through the spiritual network. In this way, the results could be obtained in a quarter of an hour at most.
There are sixteen seats, with two nominees from each of the six factions, and the winners of the previous election can nominate two more.
Chu Ning, as a contestant from the Fan school, walked onto the stone platform with another contestant from the Fan school.
Seeing Chu Ning appear, many alchemists at the scene immediately cheered. In terms of popularity, Chu Ning is undoubtedly the number one in the alchemy field.
Feeling the enthusiasm of the alchemists around the stone platform, Chu Ning suddenly understood why his sect leader wanted him to take the stage.
It has nothing to do with one's eloquence. This is about leveraging one's huge popularity to canvass votes.
In this kind of global voting event, the more popular a person is, the greater the advantage he or she will have. At least a portion of the votes will be popularity votes, also known as fan votes.
Chu Ning waved in response to these alchemists. This wave made the atmosphere more lively, but at the same time, he also received a resentful look from not far away.
The resentful look came from Lu Sizhong.
In Lu Sizhong's opinion, Chu Ning had been advising him for a month on how to win the debate, but in the end Chu Ning took the stage himself. So what secrets could he keep in front of Chu Ning?
If the debating method he was going to use was immoral, then Chu Ning was simply a person without any bottom line.
He was really angry.
After the debate, he severed his ties with Chu Ning.
Lu Sizhong made up his mind, but the next moment when he saw Chu Ning blinking at him and glancing upwards a few times, he was stunned.
What does this mean? So he didn't want to participate in this debate, but was forced to do so by Danshan Sect?
Chu Ning did not send him a message, and Lu Sizhong could understand that. There were so many seniors watching at the scene, and it would be easy for these seniors to catch the message.
Lu Sizhong also blinked twice, and when he heard Chu Ning blink three times again, his resentful expression turned into a smile.
He knew that Chu Ning was not that kind of person.
Not long after all sixteen contestants came on stage, Gongsun Jin also appeared on the stone platform.
"The once-a-millennium debate on the Dao and the Refining Theory will begin today, and the Medicine School contestant will be the first to speak."
Medicine school, pharmacology school.
The pharmacology school believes that the most important thing in alchemy is the medicinal materials, and the quality of the medicinal materials has a great impact on the success of the elixir.
Among the six sects in Danyu, Yao Sect and Fan Sect have the largest number of members, while Xuan Sect has the least. After all, the concept of luck is too illusory.
In this way, the voting rules of the Dao-Bian-Lian-Lun seem to be in favor of these two factions, but the Danta will be very fair. Half of the total votes of the Yao faction and the Fan faction will be deducted and added to the final settlement comparison.
“A skilled cook cannot cook without rice. The most important thing in alchemy is the medicinal materials. Understanding the pharmacology and identifying the medicinal materials are the first things every alchemist does when he or she starts to make alchemy. This also shows the importance of pharmacology.”
An old man from the Medicine Sect spoke first, and spoke slowly. This was a conference on the debate of the Dao and the refining of theories. There was no room for formalities, and they went straight to the point.
"That's wrong!"
Lu Sizhong spoke right after him. According to Chu Ning's plan, he wanted all the audience to have a preconceived good impression of him, so he had to let the audience know who he was first.
"Senior, I am Lu Sizhong of the Lu family."
Introducing oneself is the first step. Without giving the other party a chance to reply, Lu Sizhong continued, "To enter the alchemy industry, one must first understand pharmacology because pharmacology is the basis."
"Humph, you also said that pharmacology is the basis. A tall building starts with a foundation. If the foundation is unstable, how can you build a tall building?"
Facing the other party's question, Lu Sizhong was not anxious and said slowly: "Junior has three questions for you."
"you say."
"Now there is a furnace of medicinal materials for a sixth-grade elixir, and they are all top-quality medicinal materials. Can a sixth-grade alchemist guarantee that he can refine it?"
"That's natural..."
"Don't be impatient, senior. Wait for me to finish asking the three questions."
The old man was interrupted in the middle of his words and his face turned pale. This young master of the Lu family was so rude.
"The second question is, which is more expensive, the sixth-grade medicinal materials or the sixth-grade alchemy furnace?"
The old man's expression became solemn, and he sensed the murderous intent in Lu Sizhong's question.
"The third question is, if medicinal materials are so important, then why doesn't Danta call on everyone to grow spiritual medicines, or why does Xiyao Sect, where you are, only have 10,000 acres of medicinal fields?"
After asking the three questions, Lu Sizhong looked at the old man with a smile. The old man snorted and said, "Young Master Lu is quite witty. You asked sharp questions. I will answer you."
"The probability of my refining the best medicinal materials is naturally higher than that of ordinary medicinal materials. As for whether the medicinal materials or the alchemy furnace are more expensive, it is because the alchemy furnace is relatively rare. As for why my sect only has ten thousand acres of medicinal fields, it is because it is too difficult to grow high-level spiritual medicines."
Lu Sizhong suddenly realized, and then said lightly: "It turns out that high-level spiritual medicines are difficult to grow. Can I assume that when refining high-quality elixirs, there is no need to be picky about the medicinal materials?"
"Of course." The old man answered directly.
"Then please tell me, senior, how can I find the best medicinal materials if I can't choose high-level spiritual medicines? What's the point of identifying the pharmacology of medicines above the fifth level?"
The old man was stunned, and the audience started talking as the old man fell silent.
"Finally, I have one more question for you, Senior. I heard that you were refining the Six Desires Pill not long ago, but you only had one 1,900-year-old Black Gold Grass. As we all know, the best Black Gold Grass needed to refine the Six Desires Pill is 2,000 years old. Did you later switch to a 2,000-year-old one?"
The old man was dumbfounded. He never thought that Lu Sizhong would know about this. This happened a hundred years ago. After successfully refining the Six Desires Pill, he held an exchange meeting on the experience of refining the Six Desires Pill. At the meeting, he frankly admitted that the Black Gold Grass was only one thousand nine hundred years old.
He couldn't deny this.
Chu Ning looked at the speechless old man and muttered in his heart: "This is the power of sophistry. The theory of the Medicine School is that medicinal materials are very important. There is nothing wrong with the theory, but Lu Sizhong stole the concept and changed it to the pursuit of the best medicinal materials. Coupled with the information collected by Sihai Trading Company, this gave the old man a decisive blow."
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
"Young Master Lu is right. In the future, when it comes to refining high-level pills, it will be good enough to gather all the medicinal materials. It will not be our turn to pick them all."
A contestant from the Xuan School said, "Alchemy is all about opportunity. When the opportunity comes, you will naturally encounter good medicinal materials. When the opportunity comes, the elixir will naturally be refined."
When Lu Sizhong saw Xuan Pai speaking, he turned his gaze towards him and said, "May I ask you three questions, fellow Taoist."
Three more questions!
The smile on the face of the Xuan faction man faded and he became serious: "Young Master Lu, may I ask."
"First question: What is the probability of failure when your sect refines pills?"
"Second question: How many pills have you refined so far, fellow Daoist?"
"Third question: As far as I know, the last time you publicly refined the elixir was ten years ago, and you failed that time. I would like to ask if it is because the opportunity has not arrived yet. If the opportunity has not arrived yet, why do you still want to heat up the furnace to refine the elixir?"
Another decisive kill!
In Dantari, many bigwigs looked at the head of the Lu family, including Xie Jingxing.
The head of the Lu family blushed and said with a smile: "I didn't expect my son to have such a talent in debate."
The Lu family patriarch's words were true. He himself had not expected that his son was so eloquent that he could actually take on two people at once, and this was just the beginning.
After all, the debate was to last three days.
However, the people at the scene didn't think so. Including Xie Jingxing, they all felt that the Lu family had made sufficient preparations in advance. They didn't see that the little kid from the Lu family had already started to use personal attacks.
Over the next two days, all the alchemists in the Dan Domain witnessed Lu Sizhong's three fatal questions.
Three questions that will inevitably leave the contestants speechless.
On the stage of truth, Lu Sizhong was in high spirits and dominated the other fourteen people.
Even though many people reacted and launched counterattacks, they were still criticized by Lu Sizhong's rude words.
Yes!
Lu Sizhong was having a great time. In Chu Ning's opinion, this guy was having too much fun.
"Your De faction is powerful. You even emphasize morality when refining pills. Even though you are so virtuous, I have never seen you give away pills for free to people who ask for them."
"Xuan Sect? How dare you, a person who relies purely on guesswork, act so rampant here!"
"Fan Sect, high-level spiritual medicines in Dan Territory are becoming increasingly scarce. You are the culprits. You are the sinners of Dan Territory!"
…
…
Full firepower, brilliant light! This is the most powerful move Chu Ning gave Lu Sizhong: mouth replacement!
The six alchemist sects have argued a lot with each other, and everyone has a lot of resentment towards the other five sects. Lu Sizhong's curse is equivalent to speaking out the inner thoughts of many alchemists.
Although Lu Sizhong's attacks were indiscriminate, at least it sounded satisfying as he did not attack the faction he belonged to, and this could win him a lot of votes.
The final result was not beyond Chu Ning's expectations. Lu Sizhong alone received more votes than the other fifteen candidates.
Even Chu Ning, who is extremely popular, is far behind Lu Sizhong.
"You two follow me!"
As soon as the result came out, Gongsun Jin announced it with a dark face, and then sent a message to Chu Ning and Lu Sizhong.
He had a premonition that after this session, rudeness would prevail in future debate competitions.
Half an hour later, Chu Ning and Lu Sizhong met the Holy Master again.
The old man looked at the two of them, threw a token to Lu Sizhong, and threw a medicine bottle to Chu Ning.
"I am looking forward to your performance in Zifu."
This sentence is very meaningful.
Chu Ning took the pill and when he saw the pill in the bottle, he was excited: "Thank you, Saint Master!"
This elixir was requested by our clan leader from the Saint Master, so it is the Saint Master who should be thanked instead of Shopkeeper Fan.
Zhao Qin's legs can be saved.
