Dean’s office in the Academic Affairs Building of the Department of Alchemy.
Chen Qi, the director of discipline, was asking, "Old Wen, I don't understand why you want us to teach Xiao Su all kinds of knowledge as compensation for him. Aren't you afraid that doing so will make him lose his focus and affect his cultivation?"
Wen Wubin laughed and was very proud.
"I'm really not worried, because Su Mu's learning ability is rare in the world. For others, learning more professional knowledge will definitely be miscellaneous, but for him it is not a problem, and he may even get unexpected surprises!"
"An unexpected surprise? What does that mean?" Chen Qi asked curiously.
Wen Wubin raised his hand and took out two kinds of pills from the space magic weapon.
One type of pill is blue and red, while the other type is half black and half white. Both have unique appearances.
"What kind of medicine is this?"
The teachers present were all knowledgeable, but even so, they were still unfamiliar with these two types of elixirs.
The appearance and spiritual fluctuations of these two kinds of pills are very special. They are completely new versions that they have never seen before.
Wen Wubin introduced: "This blue and red one is called the Spiritual Healing Pill..."
The name sounded familiar. Chen Qi recalled and remembered: "Among the rewards provided by Xiao Su for the challenge copy, there seems to be such a pill?"
"Yes!" Wen Wubin nodded.
A teacher who was proficient in alchemy was stunned: "Is this the spiritual healing pill that Xiao Su was talking about? This... is not right!"
"This is a pill that Su Mu created himself. It combines the Soul Restoring Pill with the Healing Pill. It can restore the soul and heal injuries at the same time, so it was given this name. It is not the same as the Soul Healing Pill you know."
Wen Wubin's tone was full of pride.
"What? A self-made elixir?!"
"Combining the effects of the Soul Restoring Pill and the Injury Healing Pill? Both restoring the soul and healing the wound? This... are you kidding me?"
"Director Wen, is what you said true?"
The teachers knew very well how difficult it was to create a pill. Even combining the effects of two pills into one was not easy. It was surprising that Su Mu could do this.
"The pills are all here, how can I lie? If you don't believe me, take them and identify the effects of the pills yourself!"
Wen Wubin snorted coldly, seeming to be very dissatisfied with his colleagues' suspicion, but in fact, he was very proud inside.
Look at your surprised and unbelievable expressions, you really have never seen the world!
He quietly took out his cell phone and took several photos without making a sound... Of course, this rare expression had to be recorded.
The teachers did not notice his little action. After taking the healing pills, one teacher took out a magic tool in the shape of a rabbit pounding medicine, which was derived from the story of "Jade Rabbit Pounding Medicine".
After placing the healing pill into the medicine jar, the rabbit immediately began to pound it with the pestle. However, it did not actually crush the pill. Instead, it detected the pill's related effects, data, etc. through the pounding process, and displayed them in the form of rising green smoke above the jade rabbit's head.
When the teachers saw the displayed results, they were all amazed.
"It really can both restore the soul and heal injuries!"
"Its effect of restoring the soul is actually better than the Soul Restoring Pill!"
"Not only the soul-restoring effect, but also the healing effect must be better!"
"These two kinds of elixirs can actually be combined into one, and the effect is even better... How did Su Mu do it?"
The teachers all have some understanding of elixirs to some extent. They know that elixirs are not something that can be simply calculated by adding one to one. They involve the principles of the mutual generation and restraint of medicinal properties, the compatibility of monarch and minister, the five elements, yin and yang, and so on.
Take the elixir and healing pill for example. If you simply put the ingredients for the two pills together to refine them, the end result will definitely be a furnace of waste.
"I don't know how Su Mu did it, but he did it, and he did it very well." Wen Wubin said with a smile.
This is nonsense, everyone has seen it.
The teachers rolled their eyes at him and became interested in the black and white pill.
"Director Wen, what is the name of the other pill? What effect does it have?"
"As for this pill..." Wen Wubin's expression was a little strange, "Su Mu gave it a name, called 'Practice is not as good as dancing'."
"What the hell?" The teachers were all stunned.
Wen Wubin said: "The name is related to its effect. It can provide spiritual energy for cultivation just like the spiritual pill, but at the same time it can also cause hallucinations in people, making them dance with a group of little people and have no time to practice."
Teachers: “…”
How could there be such a strange elixir?
What was Su Mu thinking when he came up with this kind of medicine?
Wen Wubin coughed and gritted his teeth and made up a story: "Su Mu must have had his own ideas when he invented this kind of elixir. Maybe it has some special effect, but we haven't discovered it yet...Okay, these are not the main points. I took out these two kinds of elixirs to show you because I want you to know that Su Mu not only has a strong learning ability, but his innovation ability is beyond imagination!"
Chen Qi understood a little.
"So you asked us to teach Sumu various knowledge in order to broaden his thinking and allow him to integrate and create more new things?"
"That's right!" Wen Wubin nodded. "Recently, there have been more and more ferocious beasts and monsters appearing in the world. These are all signs that the secret realm is about to appear. If Su Mu can learn more knowledge and make more inventions, maybe by then, we can have less bloodshed and sacrifice."
Chen Qi was surprised and asked, "You have such high expectations for Xiao Su?"
Wen Wubin said seriously: "It is not too much to expect Su Mu to be great. He has the ability!"
Chen Qi pondered for a moment and nodded slowly: "In that case, let's teach Su Mu something. I hope he can really surprise us in the future as you expect."
Wen Wubin was delighted at first, then he said seriously: "I will teach you what you are best at, don't use common stuff to fill in the gaps."
"You guy, are you pushing it further?" Chen Qi burst out laughing. The teachers also laughed and scolded, and the air was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.
On the other hand, Ye Xian left behind a notebook, which not only recorded her magic skills such as illusion and puppetry, but also some of her learning experiences and research insights.
"Take this notebook and read it. If you don't understand anything, call me."
Ye Xian also had her own teaching and research tasks. Even if she wanted to teach Su Mu, she could only do it when she had time, and he had to rely on self-study. But for Su Mu, this notebook was enough, and it didn't matter whether Ye Xian taught him or not.
But he couldn't say that. Instead, he took the notes with both hands, bowed and said, "Thank you, Teacher Ye."
"You're welcome. I just hope you can live up to Director Wen's expectations." Ye Xian said. Although she was not in Wen Wubin's office at the moment, she knew something about what was happening there.
Director Wen's expectations? What expectations? Those elixir papers? But what does this have to do with the notes left by Teacher Ye?
Su Mu was very puzzled. He wanted to ask, but Ye Xian had already left. Helplessly, he could only suppress his curiosity, open the gate, and return home.
"Brother, you're back. Why are you so late today?"
In the room, Su Ye put down the book in his hand and came out.
"The director called me for something." Su Mu smiled when he saw his sister. "What book are you reading?"
"math."
Su Ye's answer surprised Su Mu a little.
"You forgot, I'm going to school soon, and I can't fall behind in my studies, so I have to look at these textbooks."
Yes, September is coming soon, and the school has arranged for Su Ye to study in the affiliated middle school.
Su Mu nodded and said, "That's right, we must keep up this enthusiasm for learning!"
The brother and sister chatted for a while, and then Caimao brought out dinner from the kitchen and put it on the table.
Seeing the food, Su Mu remembered something and told Cai Mao: "During this period of time, make more spiritual dishes that can improve combat attributes."
"Meow?"
Although he couldn't understand cat language, Su Mu guessed what the cat meant from its expression.
"Of course, I'll sell it. The school has introduced new rules, and the difficulty of combat missions will increase. If you want to complete the mission better, in addition to preparing enough elixirs, eating a meal of powerful spiritual food will become a popular trend. Besides, you should learn to make money to support yourself."
Caimao rolled his eyes: Are you talking like a human being? Have I done enough work in this house? Have I earned enough money for you?
After dinner, the brother and sister began to practice as usual. The spiritual animals and plants in the yard, such as the vegetable cat, spiritual ginseng, and lovebirds, all began to absorb the spiritual power of the dragon.
This has become the most anticipated thing for them in the day.
The next day, after class, Su Mu went to the laboratory building of the Alchemy Department.
But today, Xu Yue did not teach him the elixir recipe or spells, but taught him two runes.
As usual, Su Mu learned it quickly. Before leaving, he left behind two papers on elixirs, which he wrote overnight.
Director Wen has given both explicit and implicit instructions for these articles, and even asked Ye Xian to help urge them to submit. If I don't speed up the process, wouldn't I be giving Director Wen a lack of face?
After seeing Su Mu off, Xu Yue looked worried.
"This kid learns too fast. Even if I can teach him knowledge about talismans and weapon cultivation in addition to elixirs, with his learning speed, he will drain me dry in no time. It seems that I have to speed up my studies. Otherwise, it will be too embarrassing if I am really drained dry!"
Sighing, she turned her eyes to the two papers submitted by Su Mu.
After flipping through them, I found that one article was titled: "Analysis of the Clinical Application of the Combination of Nature and Flavor", and the other was titled: "A Dialectical View of the Control of Fire in Alchemy".
"I just have nothing to do, so I'll take a look at the medicine thesis he wrote to see how good it is..."
Xu Yue picked up the "Clinical Application Analysis of the Combination of Sex and Flavor" and started reading. She was soon absorbed in it and didn't notice that there were a few more people in her laboratory...
After leaving the laboratory building, Su Mu went straight home.
As soon as I walked in, I saw a pile of books in the yard, and I couldn't help but ask curiously: "What's the matter with these books?"
"Several teachers sent it to you, saying it was their previous study and teaching notes." Su Ye replied.
Su Mu understood. It seemed that this was really the compensation given by the teachers.
He walked over, picked up a book called "Experiences in Weapon Cultivation", and was about to flip through it when his cell phone suddenly rang.
The person who called was Senior Sister Gu Ranxi: "Su Mu, can you do me a favor?"
