Fighting: Summon two Dou Huangs as bodyguards at the beginning

Liu Xiang directly took out the medicine cauldron. Whether the pill recipe would be successful depended on whether he could refine it.

The remaining alchemists all firmly believed that this recipe was correct. After all, it was given by Vice President Mitchell, who also reminded them that there was no problem with the recipe.

However, the elixir Mitchell gave was a very special second-grade elixir that none of the alchemists present had ever heard of, and even Liu Xiang was very unfamiliar with it.

But this can arouse their interest. There is no need to discuss the elixir that has been practiced countless times. Only this kind of elixir can improve their level of medicine refining.

As a third-grade alchemist, Liu Xiang has the highest alchemy skills among this group of people except Xiao Yan.

So everyone cared about his opinion, so Liu Xiang naturally had no choice but to bite the bullet and start refining the elixir.

Liu Xiang was indeed a third-grade alchemist. He only exploded the furnace when he was melting the pill.

For the others, the furnace basically exploded after refining the medicinal materials.

When the furnace exploded this time, Liu Xiang was completely stunned. He kept thinking about his previous steps. He found that there was nothing wrong, but why did the furnace explode?

Fu Hai glanced at the herbs in the furnace and found that they had all turned to charcoal. He said awkwardly, "Um, Liu Xiang, what do you think is the problem?"

Liu Xiang scratched his head and said, "Well, I can be sure that my steps are absolutely correct. And everyone knows my techniques."

All the alchemists present were confused. What was going on? This was fine, and that was fine too.

There is only one possibility, and that is a problem with the pill formula.

But no one dares

This proposal was accepted by everyone, but Fu Hai frowned. In fact, the situation was now very clear. It could only be a problem with the pill formula.

Even Liu Xiang felt it was a bit tricky. He originally thought it was just a problem with alchemy, but he didn't expect it to involve human relationships.

Liu Xiang smiled and said to Xiao Yan, "Sorry, there are some special circumstances this time. I'll make another batch of pills for you to see later."

Xiao Yan smiled and nodded, but he walked up to the platform step by step. Then he held up the recipe and said, "Everyone, in my humble opinion, this recipe may be wrong."

When these words were spoken, all the alchemists present were shocked.

It takes some courage for him to say so blatantly that the vice president gave the wrong recipe, but this seems to have become a fact, so everyone is not too disgusted with Xiao Yan's behavior.

After all, Xiao Yan had just arrived and didn't understand so many of the rules here, which was understandable.

Fu Hai kindly persuaded: "Little brother, don't be so hasty to draw conclusions. After all, we still need to invite some seniors to take a look at this matter."

Xiao Yan first bowed to everyone, then explained, "Everyone, if I hadn't investigated thoroughly, I would never have embarrassed myself in front of so many people."

Liu Xiang was also intrigued. After all, he had never seen Xiao Yan refine pills, so he didn't know his strength.

Seeing no reaction from the crowd, Xiao Yan continued, "Everyone, look at the last three herbs. They appear to be fine, and each herb has the effect of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis. However, the middle herb is of the Yin nature, with a hint of coolness."

"Even if that herb is negative, it's neutralized by the herbs behind it, so it doesn't seem to be a problem!"

Someone in the audience immediately started to refute. After all, they were all alchemists and had a good understanding of the basic knowledge of medicinal materials.

Xiao Yan continued, "However, this hint of coolness is indeed the key to determining the composition of the entire elixir. Because of the appearance of this hint of coolness, the furnace exploded."

Perhaps what Xiao Yan said was too general, which made these alchemists disagree, but only Liu Xiang and Fu Hai understood.

Fu Hai nodded and said loudly: "That's right, the mutual promotion and restraint in the elixir is the most deadly. This hint of coolness is like red iron and ice, although small, but deadly."

Liu Xiang has been regretting why he didn't discover such a simple thing?

It is obvious that all you need to do is pay attention to the details and dissect each medicinal ingredient, and you can definitely find the loopholes.

After hearing Fu Hai and Liu Xiang's explanation, everyone almost understood that there was indeed a problem with the pill formula given by the vice president.

Only then did Liu Xiang realize that Xiao Yan had been hiding his secrets, and it turned out that he really had real abilities.I thought Xiao Yan was a novice who didn't understand anything.

Judging from the few sentences just now, Xiao Yan’s understanding of medicinal materials is not inferior to his own. In this case, Xiao Yan’s alchemy level is at least above the second level.

Liu Xiang immediately realized that he had met an extraordinary person. Although Xiao Yan was very young, he did not expect that he was already so experienced and mature.

Fu Hai excitedly took Xiao Yan's hand and said, "This little brother is really talented and has a solid foundation. Thanks to you, we can solve this problem. To thank you, I'll treat you to a meal!"

Xiao Yan was about to politely refuse when Liu Xiang said, "Brother Fu Hai, you can't snatch people away. We just agreed that I'll take Song Yi around here. You should wait for next time."

Fu Hai smiled awkwardly, then said, "Okay, let's discuss alchemy again when we have the chance."

Xiao Yan also answered them one by one with a smile. Suddenly, a voice came from above him: "Fu Hai, why are you so busy? Have you made the elixir?"

Vice President Mitchell stood on the third floor, looking down. Fu Hai spread his hands and said, "Vice President, you played a big joke on me. I asked you if there was any problem with the recipe, and you said no. You made us all sit here and discuss it all day."

Mitchell said with a smile: "Didn't you realize it too? This is a good ending, haha."

Fu Hai patted Xiao Yan's shoulder and said, "It was thanks to this little brother named Song Yi that we were able to discover the mistake."

"Oh?" Mitchell looked at Xiao Yan and found him unfamiliar.

Liu Xiang immediately stepped forward to explain: "That's right, Vice President. Song Yi has a very clear understanding of the pharmacology of medicinal herbs and his basic skills are very solid."

Mitchell then noticed Liu Xiang standing nearby and jokingly said, "Liu Xiang is here too. Didn't you also discover the problem with the recipe first?"

Liu Xiang scratched his head and said with an embarrassed smile: "Don't blame me. I admit that I am not as good as others in this aspect, but I will learn hard."

Mitchell nodded first, then asked doubtfully, "This little brother Song Yi isn't from here, right? Why does he look unfamiliar?"

Xiao Yan immediately cupped his hands and said, "Senior, I'm from Zhongzhou and have traveled to many places just to learn alchemy. I came here just to exchange ideas and learn from you masters."

Liu Xiang also said: "Yes, Song Yi is a good person, much better than the two people who came from Zhongzhou today. They are like heaven and earth."
