Chapter 41

Funitomo put the dishes that Xia Qi took out, meatballs and frozen tofu into his small pot one by one to taste.I have to say that Xia Qi’s adjusted hot bottom and prepared dipping sauce are indeed more delicious than the ones eaten in hot pot restaurants by Funito Mojiang. The texture and taste of this food called "frozen tofu" are very unique.

Part of Fnito's attention was always on Xia Qi.Xia Qi's words and deeds made the Funito demon general feel fresh and novel the more he came into contact with him.In other words, this is the common feeling of everyone who has been in contact with Xia Qi, and for Demon General Funito, this feeling is more complicated.

The people around Xia Qi usually eat the meals he cooks, and they usually talk very little because they are busy eating.Although Xia Qi didn’t fry the hot pot bottom material himself, he processed it again, and the taste has a sense of “happiness” that several people are familiar with—it’s a very happy thing to eat the food cooked by Xia Qi himself Things, so no one said anything, they were all busy eating.As Gabriel ate, he dutifully added ingredients to Shaggy's empty plate.

After eating a meal for two hours, they are all big eaters.In addition, chili was already appetizing, and Xia Qi, who put down his chopsticks, only felt that his cheeks were very tired.He couldn't count how much he ate, and Puli ate the last fork of vermicelli cooked in soup with a satisfied expression.General Funito had just put down his fork not long ago.

After confirming that Xia Qi was full, Gabriel took his chopsticks to wash him, Xia Qi was very embarrassed.When Gabriel came back, he told the adults that they could leave, and he had already settled the bill.The store manager refused to accept the money, and Gabriel paid the money to the store manager on the grounds that it was an order from the young marshal.When Xia Qi and the others came out of the shop and got into the car, the store manager followed behind and looked at Xia Qi expectantly. Unfortunately, Xia Qi was too short to see it, and others would not tell him if they saw it.Both Puli and Ling have their own ideas, how can they cheapen the hot pot restaurant in Urd territory.

When your belly is full, it's time to get down to business.The magic crystal car was unimpeded—no car dared to block the road at all—and came to the intersection of Baijie Street, which Xia Qi thought was a street of materials.Everyone got out of the car, and the street in front of them, which should have been bustling, was unusually quiet at the moment, and the people in the street stood on both sides in an orderly manner.There are not many people around, even the demon general Xia Qi can only bear it. In fact, he really just wants to come here for a casual stroll.

Orcas held Xia Qi's hand and walked in first. An ordinary-looking, medium-height demon walked over quickly from the crowd, bowed and kissed the shoe in front of the demon general Fnito, "My lord , I am Rusom, the deacon of White Street."

The fnitomo general cast a cold glance at the other party, and Puli said, "Let's just take a look. Get up."

Lasom stood up, Puli looked at Xia Qi, "If you want to ask anything, just ask him."

Xia Qi went to see Orcas, and Orcas nodded to him. Xia Qi pursed his lips and showed a kind smile and said, "Deacon Lasom, hello. Can you introduce the situation here?"

Although Lasom didn't understand why it was a human being who asked the question, he still introduced in detail: "This is the largest material trading place in Thornstone City, White Street..."

While explaining, Lasom led the audience into White Street.White Street is the largest and most concentrated material trading place in Thornstone City. There are also a large number of low-level pharmacists gathered here, and many of them are not even apprentices.Not every pharmacist and casting master can be admitted to the Motarot Imperial Academy to receive systematic pharmacy and casting studies. A student of the Foundry Master.

No matter in the Demon Race or in the Human Empire, pharmacists and foundries need talents, but more importantly, opportunities.This opportunity largely comes from teachers.Like the Queen and Princess Jinna, there is no doubt that they worshiped under Master Bin, and if Anbu was not because of Xia Qi's relationship, he would never have become a student of Master Mihaqi.

Good teachers are rare, and students who can become good teachers are even harder to find.Most of the pharmacists and foundries in places like White Street are from Yeluzi who have never entered the Motarot Imperial Academy, and some have been admitted to the Motarot Imperial Academy but were rejected due to lack of talent or poor studies. Dropped out.As long as you can enter the Motarot Imperial Academy and reach the intermediate level, even if you can't worship under a certain high-level teacher, you can still enter the Pharmacist Guild to support yourself, so in the end, strength determines destiny.

The pharmacists and casters gathered here, on the one hand, they make a living by configuring some low-level potions and casting some low-level weapons for sale; on the other hand, they also hope to get high-level pharmacists or The Foundry's attention, or the attention of a family, though the chances of that were slim.

However, although the potions they configure and the weapons they make are very low-level, the business is still good.After all, the low-level demons accounted for the majority of the demons.These low-level demons have low strength and insufficient funds. They can only afford low-level potions and weapons. Places like White Street are their preferred places to buy them.

The left side of Baijie Street is full of shops, and the right side is a row of open-air stalls.The cheapest and lowest-grade materials can be bought at open-air stalls, while the types of materials in shops are more complete and there will be high-grade materials.The sales areas for medicinal materials and casting materials are separate. The first thing everyone sees are the stalls and shops selling medicinal materials. At the end is the place where pharmacists gather. After crossing a small street, they arrive at the block where casting materials are sold. It is also concentrated in that area, and the reason why the sales area for casting materials is at the back is also because the cold casting pool in Thornstone City is there.

Xia Qi quickly browsed through the drug material stalls, searched for a bunch of basic materials, and then watched him enter the shops one by one.As long as he sees Mosen dust and Chizhu grass, he will buy them all, and it is Puli who pays.If Puli paid for Xia Qi out of the loyalty of his friends before, then even Orcas can't compete with him now, so Orcas will not compete with him for the right to pay.

In these shops, Xia Qi encountered a few materials that he thought should be bought, but he didn't know what they were used for.

For example, the gray stone shell, a shell that grows in the waters of the demons. There are not many such shellfish, and it is a material for making luminous potions.The luminous potion is applied on the weapon, and the weapon will shine at night. Demon women like to use it to decorate weapons, and Ling has this kind of potion.But since she started being groomed by Xia Qi, she abandoned this potion.

Another example is reed grass, which is a kind of demon plant with a very hard texture and many sharp serrated leaves on the edge. It is usually used to prepare scar-removing potions for removing scars.The anti-scar potion is a mid-level potion that feels cold to the touch.The reed tooth grass itself is also an intermediate magic plant.Because the trace-removing potion is favored by demon women, the price of reed tooth grass is not cheap, but Xia Qi still bought a lot, and he felt that he needed it.

Xia Qi also bought a set of medium medicine dispensing pots used by demon pharmacists to prepare medicines.The dispensing pots of demon pharmacists are usually larger than those of human pharmacists, which is related to their size and also related to the fact that demon plants are usually larger.There are also differences in the shape of the dispensing pot on both sides.The dispensing pots of human pharmacists are relatively small, and most of them are made of crystal stones. similar.There are also high and low grades of crystal stones. For example, the crystal stones used in Master Bin’s medicine pot are rare Thai-born crystal stones.

The dispensing pot that Xia Qi bought was made of magic iron, and the inside and outside of the pot were all black.He bought and bought all the way, and no one questioned him.

Funitomo will be very patient and accompany Shaqi with the big troops to stop in front of one material stall after another, and go in and out of one shop after another. The only shortcoming is that because of his existence, the time they pass Trembling everywhere.

Since the first material stall, Xia Qi has always been in a state of deep thought.Except for Demon General Funito and Deacon Lasom, everyone else was accustomed to this and would not bother him.Walking out of the last shop, Lasom pointed to the special stalls not far away and said, "That's where the pharmacists set up their stalls. They are all the lowest pharmacists, and the pharmacies are also very low. "

"Can I go over and have a look?"

"sure"

Xia Qi took a step forward.They are very attractive to attract others' attention.The status of General Fnito and the two young marshals is one aspect, Xia Qi’s strange behavior here as a human being is one aspect, Orcas’ human aristocratic appearance is one aspect, and the beautifully dressed Ling is very important On the one hand.Along the way, Ling's vanity has been unprecedentedly satisfied.Where she passes, women can't help but look at her nails and jewelry, and men can't help sniffling besides looking at her, it smells so good.

After getting the consent of the pharmacist from the stall owner, Xia Qi picked up the medicine placed on the male son and observed it carefully against the sun.Putting it down, picking it up, putting it down, picking it up, he picked up each medicine one by one and looked at the house in the sun.Due to the presence of high-level demons, the stall owner dared not express his doubts.How much can a human see?Human potions and deer potions are not the same in terms of configuration or use.

Xia Qi didn't see the puzzled faces of the people around him who were watching carefully, and some people were even a little bit dissatisfied: a human came here to make trouble!

He just observed each medicine in a very strict, serious and thoughtful way all the time.Moving from one pharmacist's stall to the next, Xia Qi would first ask the stall owner if he could have a look at the pharmacy at every stall, and after getting permission, he would look over as before.

Moving all the way to the ninth booth, the host was an ordinary-looking demon girl who looked a few years older than Ling. She was very reserved. Before Xia Qi opened her mouth, she said, "You can just look around."

"thanks."

Xia Qi picked up a milky white potion and observed it against the light. While observing, he shook it slightly.A layman could not understand his intention of doing this, but the pharmacists at the scene knew Xia Qi's intention very well.While they wondered what a human being could do with their demon potion, they were also surprised that this person could really see the purity of the potion?

Generally speaking, medicine configuration is to purify the essence of medicinal plants, and then the essence of different medicinal plants undergoes certain reactions under the catalysis of the pharmacist, and finally fuses into a finished medicinal product with certain effects.There are two states of water-based medicine and oil-based medicine. Usually, water-based medicine is taken internally, and oil-based medicine is used externally, but it is not absolute.The higher the level of pharmacists, the more they can purify the essence of medicinal plants, and the more advanced and complex the essence of medicinal plants can be fused into advanced medicines.

The most intuitive way to judge the purity of medicine is to use the eyes of a pharmacist.Shaking the potion in a place with strong enough light, advanced pharmacists can easily see whether the medicinal plants are purified or not, and whether there are any residues of medicinal plants left in the potion.Many pharmacists will shake the medicine under enough light to make a judgment, but this often requires the pharmacist to have strong mental power.Because as long as it is a medicine, no matter it is water-based or oil-based, the surface looks very clean and pure, and it will never leave any residue at the bottom of the medicine.

The milky white potion in Xia Qi's hand is a primary cold resistance potion. Applying it on the body, weapons or armor can increase the resistance to ice attribute attacks.Of course, this kind of resistance is very low level, after all, it is only a basic cold resistance medicine.But for a junior pharmacist, it is also difficult to make such a bottle of primary cold resistance potion.

Putting down the primary cold resistance potion, Xia Qi picked up another orange-yellow primary kerosene.The primary kerosene can increase the burning time of the torch and the temperature of the flame, but the primary kerosene can only increase it by up to 10 minutes, and the most advanced kerosene can prolong it by more than ten hours, and the increased temperature should be higher than that of the primary kerosene There are many, and the price is naturally expensive.The use of torches is very frequent in human empires and clans. In the forest, torches are not used for lighting, but to expel and fight against alien beasts. The dazzling firelight and scorching temperature will create a certain deterrent effect on alien beasts.

The apothecary, like the others, filled her shelf with potions of her own making: next to the booth was her dispensing pot.Xia Qi looked at all her potions one by one, and said, "My name is Xia Qi, what is your name?"

Ling's eyes changed slightly, the demon girl flinched, and replied in a low voice, "My name is Zhali."

Xia Qi said, "Hello, Zally, can you prepare a potion on the spot? Any potion is fine."

Puli's eyes immediately fell on Zally. Zally shuddered and nodded vigorously, "Yes, yes."

Xia Qi took a few magic plants from his ring containing demon materials, and handed them over, "Just configure what you are best at, the most basic potion is fine, see if there are any magic plants you need."

Zhali looked at Puli and Ling timidly, shook her head and said, "No, no, I have it, Mo Zhi."

Xia Qi didn't stop, "Use mine, I asked you for help."

Okas glanced at Puli and Ling, telling them not to scare each other anymore, and said: "You can use our materials."

Puli and Ling withdrew their eyes from staring at Zhali. Under Xia Qi's smile, Zhali took three kinds of magic plants and licked her lips. She said nervously: "I, I will make a primary magic energy potion. .”

"it is good."

Under the watchful eyes of two young marshals and a master magic general, the girl was under a lot of pressure.Seeing that her hands were shaking all the time, and her face was pale, Xia Qi said, "Puli, Ling, you go shopping, don't accompany me." Don't scare other girls here, especially the one Master Demon General!

Ling: "I want to accompany you."

Poole didn't move.

Orcas had no choice but to say: "Put away your demonic energy."

Ling and Puli understood the meaning of Xia Qi's words in a second, and put away their magic energy.Demon General Fnito also put away his magic energy "tacitly", and also put away his natural coercion by the way.The girl suddenly stopped shaking so much.

Shaggy took out a can of Skittles from the ring around his neck and handed it over, "This is for you."

Someone's devilish energy quickly dissipated, and the girl who hadn't shaken much earlier immediately became a sieve.Xia Qi sighed in his heart, turned his head, raised his head and said, "Ling, be good."

— That vinegar is mine!

Ling's eyes are full of hunger.How could Xia Qi give her candy to other women!

Xia Qi hooked his fingers towards Ling, Ling lowered his head, and his mouth was almost pouted enough to hang a soy sauce bottle.

Xia Qi whispered to Ling: "Be good, I will make you more beautiful when you go back."

"That's my Skittles." Ling was very embarrassed.The candy in Shaggy's ring is hers!And Xia Qi actually gave it to a woman!

"I still have cream cake. Give it to you."

Another wave of demonic energy spread, and Xia Qi roared in his heart: Puli, don't make trouble!

"I asked Gabrin to make dumplings for you."

Gabriel staggered, almost kneeling, what?He won't!Your Excellency!

dumpling?have not eaten.Ling straightened her back and asked, "Tonight?"

"tonight."

Humming at the female stall owner, Ling reluctantly agreed that Xia Qi would give her candies to other women.

Shaggy, who didn't hear Gabrin's inner prayer, put the sugar bowl into Zali's hand.Then send a big grateful smile, "Thank you."

Rainbow candy, a candy that demon women—especially young women can't resist.Soothed by Xia Qi's smiling face, the girl said thank you in a low voice, and accepted the candy. The younger brother and younger sister will be very happy.

Both Ling and Puli put away their magic energy. Without their interference, the young demon pharmacist Zha Li, who got another jar of the precious Rainbow Candy from the Human Empire, took a few deep breaths to calm down and started making the primary magic energy potion.

Demon energy is the driving force for the demons to fight, and the primary magic energy medicine is also a kind of medicine that demon pharmacists must know.

Both demons and humans need to use fire to prepare potions.The material used by human pharmacists to make fire is a kind of wood called crystal wood, and there are merchants who specialize in growing crystal wood.The material used by demon pharmacists to make fire is bone wood, which looks like the bones of exotic animals. It is a common wood for demons, and there are also merchants who specialize in planting bone wood.The color of bone wood is blue, and the flame after lighting it is light purple. At the same time, the flame will magically exude a cold and cold atmosphere, which is why the pharmacists of the demons choose bone wood.

Mozu's dispensing pot is relatively deep, with a base that is also relatively deep.Zari lit three two-finger-long bones and put them into the base, and then put the dispensing pot on the base.The three bone trees were completely burned, and Xia Qi could feel the coldness emanating from the base.Zha Li's expression was extraordinarily serious, her devilish energy overflowed, surrounding the dispensing pot and the base, and the bone-wood flames burst out instantly.Zha Li's attention was completely focused on the medicine dispensing pot, her left hand was attached to the medicine dispensing pot, and her right hand picked up two berry root grasses and threw them into the medicine dispensing pot, and the demonic energy became more intense.
