In the following days, Pearly and Master Dulu stayed with the Fergus family.
Master Duru asked the Fergus family for a small house, and after setting it up as a medicine refining room, he worked all day long, trying to restore the formula of the animal control medicine. McCarthy Thompson's medicine refining utensils were all taken away. Come back.
Pearly, on the other hand, mingled with the younger generation of the Fergus family, practicing together, reading books together, and traveling around the Fergus Viscount territory together.
Among the Gray people, the one who was happiest about Pearly and Master Drew temporarily staying at Fergus Castle was none other than Sarah.
In the past few days, I have been traveling around with Pearly, and I have received many gifts. I have been calling Sister Pearly one after another, and I mean it sincerely.
One day, after finishing her training at the White Stone Training Ground of Fergus Castle, Pearly sat in the pavilion with Bernal and others, drinking juice, and asked quite puzzledly.
"Why didn't you see Gray when you were practicing these days?"
Originally, she wanted to judge Gray's current status among the mid-level blood warriors by observing Gray's training, but after not being able to see Gray for several days, she finally couldn't help it and asked aloud.
"Gray usually practices alone in the open space south of the castle, and rarely practices with us."
Caroline explained.
"That's it."
Thinking of the incompatible relationship between her eldest brother and her second brother, Pearly consciously stopped the topic and stopped asking further questions.
And regarding Gray's identity, she has heard from Sarah in the past few days that one is the child of the viscount's wife and the other is the child of his lover. The relationship between the two parties is not good, and it is normal for them to have grudges.
"call-"
With a sigh of relief, Gray ended his morning practice.
Drops of sweat covered his forehead and slowly slid down his forehead.
"Master Gray, please use a towel!"
At the right time, the maid Barbara came forward and handed over the towel respectfully.
Gray took the towel, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and returned the towel to the maid Barbara.
In the past few days, he could clearly feel the attention from the Marquis' daughter, Pearly, because her eyes would fall on him from time to time.
Of course, he is not narcissistic enough to think that the other party has that kind of thoughts about him. According to his estimation, the reason why the other party pays such attention to him should be because of his performance in the Viscount Battle of Sidney Castle.
His performance at that time was indeed too eye-catching among all the viscount's children, but at that time, in order to compete for resources for the Fergus family, he didn't care so much.
Now he lives in the Fergus family. The more benefits the Fergus family gets from the Sidney family, the more benefits he will naturally get.
And the benefits have already appeared. After returning from Sidney Castle, the blood supply of the blood beast has been increased to once a week, and he has also received an additional bottle of concentrated medicine that may not be available even with gold coins.
He hasn't taken the concentrated medicine yet, so he doesn't know how effective it will be at the moment, but increasing the supply of blood beast blood to once a week will undoubtedly increase his cultivation speed a lot.
Heading to the castle bathroom, Gray passed a house. He hesitated a little, but finally couldn't help but stopped out of curiosity and walked towards the house.
The door of the house was open. Gray walked to the door and stretched his head to look inside. He saw an old man with gray hair wearing a gray robe, who was busy concentrating on bottles and jars. This man naturally It's Duru, the master of alchemy.
His hands are extremely flexible, and they are constantly flying, mixing various liquids according to the proportions with great precision.
The liquid he mixed was bubbling. The color was light yellow at first, then slowly turned into deep yellow, then turned into lavender, and finally turned into deep purple...
Gray watched quietly, with curiosity in his eyes. Is this the process of an alchemist refining medicine
It was quite similar to when he was doing chemical experiments in his previous life, but the other party's movements were too fast, and even with the eyesight of a high-ranking blood warrior, his vision was blurry.
Of course, this is just an appearance. As far as Gray knows, in the process of refining medicine, the alchemist needs to use the power of blood to perform special medicine refining techniques to act on the medicine. Moreover, each step is different and the techniques will be different. not exactly.
At this point, Master Alchemist Dulu stopped, picked up the vessel containing the dark purple liquid, and frowned while looking at it.
"No, no, that's not the case. The weights are all derived according to the derivation formula. There should be nothing wrong. The problem must lie in the steps... Which step is wrong?"
Master Dulu said to himself habitually.
Gray looked at it. Although he had done chemical experiments in his previous life, they were just average. Judging from his current situation after graduation, he naturally couldn't see the problem.
"Gray!"
There was a voice saying hello behind him. Gray looked back and saw Pearly walking towards this direction, with a bitter look on her face. Sure enough, in the next moment.
"Boy, what are you standing at the door looking at?"
Master Duru's voice sounded.
Obviously, because of Pearly's voice, Master Dulu also noticed Gray's uninvited guest at the door.
Master Duru could have easily discovered it due to his strength, but Master Dulu was too involved in refining medicine and did not discover Gray immediately.
"Sorry, Master Dulu, I'm a little curious about how the alchemist makes medicine, so when I passed by, I couldn't help but want to take a look."
Gray said cautiously.
The character of Master Duru cannot be said to be good. He naturally does not want to offend this person with words. Otherwise, if this person gets angry and slaps him seriously, it will really be in vain. After all, he To a certain extent, it is considered voyeurism.
"snort."
Master Dulu is not a good-tempered person. He originally wanted to insult Gray, but after thinking about it, he still lived in the Fergus family, so he gave up after thinking about it.
Moreover, it is not easy for him to secretly learn how to refine medicine. If someone really takes a glance at him and learns his skills, then he will be worthless as a master of medicine refining.
Knowing that Gray was almost scolded because of her own fault, Pearly walked over and spoke.
"Gray, do you want to learn how to make medicine?"
"I think so, but I don't have the talent for that."
Gray shrugged helplessly.
"You're pretty self-aware, kid."
Master Dulu said sarcastically.
If you want to become an alchemist and have great achievements in refining medicine, talent is essential. Without talent, no matter how hard you work, your achievements will be extremely limited.
As for those who are active in various towns and cities and can prescribe some medicine for colds and bruises, they are not even pharmacists, they can only be regarded as ordinary people who know a few prescriptions.
If you want to become a pharmacist, you must at least have the ability to independently develop potions, and if you want to become a master of alchemy, you must have the ability to develop potions.
"Miss Polly, have you finished practicing?"
Seeing that Master Dulu had no intention of causing trouble for him, Gray looked at Pearly and greeted him.
"Well, I just finished practicing."
Pearlie nodded, looked at the container containing the purple potion in Master Duru's hand, and asked expectantly.
"Teacher, how's it going? Has the animal control potion been restored?"
"Uh~~, ah~~, there's still a little bit left!"
Master Dulu, who was so domineering just now, suddenly became embarrassed.
Maybe he didn't think of it himself. After knowing the ingredients of the drug and analyzing the rough refining steps, he spent several days and still couldn't restore the animal control potion.
Thinking of this, he looked at Gray and asked.
"Boy, after you entered that wooden house last time, did you take away any utensils for refining medicine?"
"No, I only took away a manuscript, a blood method called "Wooden Monkey", and a few bottles of solution."
Gray recalled it carefully and said.
He is not afraid that the other party will have the idea of robbing him after hearing the blood method "Wooden Monkey". A blood method like "Wooden Monkey" can only be regarded as an ordinary blood method, and there are many families who own it.
For ordinary people, it is an extremely precious thing, but for the alchemy master Dulu and the Marquis' daughter Pearly, its value is extremely low. The Marquis family should have this kind of blood method.
"But when we went there this time, the room was disturbed. I don't know if the person took some utensils when he left."
Gray wasn't sure.
There were too many utensils on the long table, and they didn't pay much attention at the time, so they didn't know whether any of the utensils had been taken away when they went there for the second time.
"Boy, wait a minute and ask Viscount Fergus to help me find out who went to that wooden house and whether he took anything. If he took something, get it back."
Master Duru ordered.
"Okay, I'll tell my father when I get back."
Gray nodded.
"Teacher, as for the steps, you have tried all the steps you can think of. Are the ingredients and proportions of the medicine wrong?"
Pearly frowned.
"I calculated the ingredients and proportions of the medicine according to the calculation formulas in the manuscript. There should be no mistakes."
Putting down the container and bottle, Master Duru shook his head.
"Could it be that McCarthy Thompson deliberately omitted or added some drugs to the manuscript in order to prevent the animal control drug formula from being taken away by others?"
Pearly said again.
"Deliberately adding or reducing drugs?"
Master Dulu held his chin with one hand and thought.
"It's possible that this guy is a wanted criminal and is ready to escape at any time. He definitely doesn't want the veterinary control drug formula to be obtained by others. He may add or delete certain drugs from the manuscript..."
