Mu Yu sat bored on the highest point of the bamboo forest, looking at the entire Green Bamboo Peak. Below was the bamboo house, with dead wood lying on the bed at the moment. Guiyuan Pill has been given to Kumu, but Kumu has not woken up yet. Xiaoshuai said that he was fine now and it was only a matter of time before he woke up, so he didn't need to worry too much.
Dead wood has been in a coma for three days, and Leng Bingxue has been staying close to him for these three days. Originally Mu Yu wanted to stay inside, but later he found that the atmosphere was a bit awkward. He and Leng Bingxue had nothing to talk about at all, and Leng Bingxue never spoke. She was a match for Kumu, so the two of them were a good match. Mu Yu didn't want to be a light bulb, so he left them alone in the same room. Whatever happened was none of his business.
Today is the competition between the sects for the two places to go to Tianwaitian, and Mu Yu doesn't even know whether he is qualified to participate. They had made it clear that day that Mu Yu was not considered a member of the Danding Sect in their eyes, so Mu Yu did not want to ask for trouble. Kumu hasn't woken up yet, so he doesn't worry about participating in any competition. He can help in case of any emergency.
But someone seemed more anxious than him.
"What are you doing here, kid? Why don't you hurry up and take part in today's competition?" At this moment, the old man Shouge appeared beside Mu Yu and slapped Mu Yu on the head.
"Hey! Old man, can you cough first when you come here next time? If you are scary, you will scare people to death!" Mu Yu touched the back of his head in pain. The strength of the old man who guarded the pavilion was not comparable to that of Kumu, " Besides, don’t you want an outsider to participate in this competition?”
"With my intervention, I decided to make an exception for you." The old man guarding the pavilion looked like you wanted to thank me, and also showed a mysterious smile.
Seeing him like this, Mu Yu distrusted him. Participating in this competition by himself would do him no good at all. Why should he help him? Is it just because of guilt about dead wood? No kidding! Guilt is certainly not made up for in this way.
"What? You still don't believe me?"
"I don't believe it." Mu Yu said sincerely.
"Damn it! You have no shame, stop talking nonsense, let's go!" The old man Shouge lifted up Mu Yu's collar and stepped into the void.
Before Mu Yu had time to object, he was picked up like a chicken, and then his eyesight went dark, as if he had entered darkness. He couldn't see clearly what was going on around him. He only felt that there seemed to be some blurry light and shadow receding rapidly around him. Walking in the void is a skill that can only be mastered by cultivators above the distraction stage. This is something Muyu has become accustomed to. In the past, Kumu often took him out for a walk, but he still felt that he didn't like this way of walking.
By the time Mu Yu came to his senses, he had already been thrown out. Fortunately, he stabilized his feet in time, and then cursed in his heart that this old bastard didn't know how to care for children at all, so couldn't he be handled with care
Mu Yu was thrown into a square. He looked around. People were coming and going. Others were a little surprised by Mu Yu's sudden appearance. However, after seeing Mu Yu's face clearly, everyone's expressions changed. Like shit, it seems that Mu Yu's arrival is not welcome.
"Hello?" Mu Yu greeted him familiarly, but no one paid him any attention.
Mu Yu saw a small stone table in front of him, with a pill, a piece of paper and a pen placed on it. In addition, there was a number plate with "March 8" written on it.
"What's going on with the 38 number plate!" Mu Yu scratched his nose, and then said to a little girl next to him: "Little sister, let's change the number plate!"
"No." The little girl refused flatly, and at the same time glanced at Mu Yu warily, looking at him like a pervert.
"Everyone must be aware of the rules of this competition, so the first round of selection has officially begun!" A middle-aged examiner with a resolute face and slightly dark skin announced.
"What do you want to start? What do you want to know?"
Mu Yu didn't understand anything when he heard the examiner's words. He looked around and found that everyone carefully picked up the elixir and inspected it carefully. Some people put it under their noses to smell it, and some people lightly scratched it with their nails. Some people have already begun to write on the surface of the elixir.
Everyone knew what the first round of testing was, except Muyu who didn't know it like a fool.
"You cheated! Get out!" The examiner came over and pointed at Mu Yu and said sternly.
"Ah?" Mu Yu looked at the examiner blankly, why did he cheat? Is this competition over before it even begins
"I just want to know what this first round is for?"
Mu Yu almost had the urge to scold his father. Kumu never explained to him how the assessment was conducted. He must not have known it even if he asked him. The old man who guarded the pavilion just left him here without explaining it clearly. It felt like he was being freed. Like a stupid child, he was left to fend for himself.
Is there no responsible person
The examiner looked at Mu Yu: "Are you making fun of me?"
Mu Yu rolled his eyes. This black-faced examiner was not easy to deal with based on his appearance. He would only waste his sense of humor on such a person when he was full.
"No one told me what the first round was for?"
"Hmph! What's your name? Which disciple are you from?"
"My name is Mu Yu, a disciple from the Qingzhu Peak lineage." Mu Yu replied sincerely.
The examiner was startled and looked at Mu Yu carefully, only to realize that he was a bit unfamiliar. Mu Yu's reputation in the Danding Sect has been unintentionally causing a lot of noise these days, and he has naturally heard about it.
His expression softened slightly, and then he said: "The first test is to know the recipe by listening to the elixir. Look at the fourth-level elixir in front of you and write down all the medicinal ingredients and formulas that you can identify."
Know the recipe after hearing the elixir
"This isn't fair!" Xiao Shuai climbed onto Mu Yu's shoulders.
"It's a bit unfair." Mu Yu was a little surprised. Who would have thought that this round would be such a test.
"Unfair? Humph! If you don't even have this most basic ability, how can you be an alchemist!"
The examiner gave Mu Yu a disdainful look and left. He knew that Gu Mu Changqing did not follow the path of a regular alchemist, and he probably had no experience at all in hearing alchemy and knowing prescriptions, so he thought it was unfair to them.
A smile appeared at the corner of Mu Yu's mouth. This was indeed unfair, but it was unfair to others, not to him. The ingredients of elixirs are generally based on herbs, plus some other auxiliary ingredients. For Mu Yu, identifying herbal medicines was easy, but Mu Yu had learned the other ingredients from Ku Mu for two years, and he recognized basically what Ku Mu knew.
Mu Yu picked up the elixir. It was a dark elixir with four light white stripes on it, indicating that it was a fourth-level elixir. Unlike other people who smelled it with their noses and scratched it with their nails, and some even licked it with their tongues, as soon as his hand touched the elixir, the various herbal ingredients of the elixir immediately came to mind.
"Qiu Ling grass, silk flower, demon root..."
Koba wrote down the ingredients of all the herbs without hesitation. It was an easy task, and he could even find a Shikoma leaf that was smaller than a grain of sand. This thing is odorless, and it is wrapped in the middle. If you smell it, you will definitely not be able to smell it. You will definitely not be able to find it if you don't break the elixir apart. Even if you break it open, it is difficult to identify it based on its size.
To identify Shiju Ye, you must either have a very strong spiritual power that can penetrate into the elixir, and use the different fluctuations of elixirs with different components to spiritual power to determine the ingredients, or you have an expert like Mu Yu who is born to control plants. .
The former has very high requirements for spiritual power, and is usually not recognized by practitioners who have not had the experience of the out-of-body period and have been immersed in elixir refining for many years. As for the latter, it is an exception that no one can explain.
This fourth-level elixir contains ninety-eight plant ingredients. As he wrote, Mu Yu scolded the idiot alchemist who made this fourth-level elixir for having to use so many ingredients. His hand was sore when writing. Through the information fed back by these herbal ingredients, Mu Yu also recognized other ingredients, including nine non-plant ingredients such as the blood of the spirit fox and the heart powder of the demon toad. These non-plant ingredients are just like playing house for Mu Yu, who has memorized a "Poison Sutra", without any challenge.
Muyu finished writing quickly. He looked up and looked around and found that no one had handed in their answers. He was the only one who finished it. Many people were looking at the elixir with wide eyes, as if if they looked at it for a while, the elixir would write out the ingredients on its own, which looked particularly funny. Then he met the examiner's unkind gaze, and it seemed that he was again looking around. The examiner was staring at Mu Yu the whole time, always trying to catch evidence of his cheating. Unfortunately, Mu Yu was very fast and didn't give him any chance at all. He yawned happily, stretched out, picked up his answers and walked towards the examiner.
Mu Yu's actions attracted the attention of many people, and no one handed in the papers. He was the worthy first. Many people are still scratching their heads, and they seem to think that there are still some ingredients that have not been identified, and they are making nonsense. Maybe they are wrong.
"Is it possible that the glaucosa is in there? The dog's tail flower should be there, and where is the seven-scarred leaf? Forget it, let's write it down and make up the number!"
When Mu Yu walked over, a little fat man next to him was making a fuss, which made Mu Yu want to laugh. It turned out that the disciples of the Alchemy Sect were not that great. In Wen Dan Shi Fang, Mu Yu didn't even know that he had ditched them. How many streets.
He wanted to tell the little fat man that none of these things were in the pill, but seeing how confident the little fat man was, Mu Yu decided not to attack him.
As he walked over, he secretly glanced at other people's papers and found that there were less than ten types written on their papers, and the most was twenty types. Everyone has a different way of handling elixirs. Be gentle like Mu Yu and just touch the elixirs yourself. Most people pinch the elixirs here and there, leaving a small hole here and a big hole there. Some people even put the elixir in their hands. The medicine was dismembered and became pulverized.
These elixirs are definitely not valuable, otherwise the Alchemy Cauldron Sect would not dare to waste them like this no matter how big their budget is. According to Mu Yu's estimation, this elixir shouldn't have any special curative effect, and it might just be a tool specially used to test disciples.
"Is he that Mu Yu?"
"Is he so fast? The last to arrive and the first to hand in the paper?"
"Xu Ziye and Bie Wenxuan haven't finished yet!"
"He must not be able to write it, or he must be writing it randomly. Huh! He thought he could get away with it this way."
"It's hard to say. After all, he is a person who has integrated the Guiyuan Pill."
"He didn't even study systematically. The fusion must be a coincidence. And the fusion is just one step, how can it be such a complicated step."
Today's test was attended by many Jindan-level disciples. When they saw Mu Yu handing in the paper in less than a quarter of an hour, they immediately started talking about it. No one has ever dared to hand in the paper so quickly. Everyone has to wait until the time is up before handing in the paper. Even if they can't recognize it, they can make up more.
Mu Yu's early submission undoubtedly made many people think that he was arrogant. Even the examiner looked at Mu Yu coming over with disdain. Just when Mu Yu was about to hand over the paper, he was suddenly slapped on the back of the head.
"Old man, what are you doing again!" When Mu Yu saw that it was the old man who was guarding the pavilion, he suddenly became furious.
"Do you still have any objections? Who told you to hand in the paper so early? Can't you write more? If you can't write it, make it up! What if you come out so early and can't get into the third round?"
The old man Shouge didn't see the answer paper in Mu Yu's hand. Mu Yu rolled up the paper. He thought Mu Yu didn't write much at all or couldn't write at all. In his eyes, Kumu himself was not a regular alchemist, so how could he possibly teach a real alchemist
"What is the third round? That's wrong! We haven't passed the second round yet, so why is it the third round? Why do you seem to want me to get that spot? Tell me! Do you have any conspiracy!" Mu Yu said Be alert.
