Chapter 102 "Compendium of Materia Medica" is hard to find
Liao Xianrong's good friend is named Lin Zhecheng, an elder of the Alchemist Guild and a third-grade alchemist.
In the Wuning City Alchemist Guild, he is a relatively famous person.
Because the quality of the elixirs he refines are all of the highest level, the selling price of the elixirs refined by him is 30% more expensive than similar elixirs refined by other alchemists of the same level, but still
It's in short supply.
Therefore, under normal circumstances, if you want to get the elixir that he refined personally, you can only pay a high price and pay a deposit first, and then wait for his schedule to refine it.
As for how long to wait, that's up to him.
If he is in a bad mood, or does not want to stop the research work at hand, and is too lazy to refine the elixir, the customer who paid the deposit can only choose to wait patiently.
This Lin Zhecheng holds it in his mouth like this.
However, he did it because he had real abilities, unlike some people, such as Jiang Weifeng, who didn't have much ability but liked to show off, and ended up being slapped in the face, causing them to lose all face.
Luo Xiaoyan rushed to the Alchemist Guild, and under the leadership of the Alchemist Guild's office staff, found Lin Zhecheng. Lin Zhecheng was immersed in studying an ancient alchemy recipe.
Sensing someone coming in, Lin Zhecheng just raised his head and waved to Luo Xiaoyan, who was entering the office, and stopped looking at him, minding his own business.
"Please wait slowly. I have something to do, so I will leave first." The office staff of the Alchemist Guild knew Lin Zhecheng's temper and his character. He really didn't know when Lin Zhecheng would finish what he was doing.
Luo Xiaoyan came to see him to deal with the matter, so he said hello to Luo Xiaoyan in a low voice, and then left by himself.
Before Luo Xiaoyan came to see Lin Zhecheng, Liao Xianrong told him not to disturb him easily if Lin Zhecheng was busy with his own affairs, so as not to bore him and lead to the worst results.
Therefore, seeing Lin Zhecheng immersed himself in busy work and paying no attention to what he meant, he was not in a hurry. He got up and wandered around the office, looking here and there, and finally came to the bookshelf Lin Zhecheng placed in the office.
In front of me, I picked up a copy of "The Encyclopedia of Alchemy Techniques" and started reading.
At first, Luo Xiaoyan just casually opened a few pages, but then he felt dizzy and found that he couldn't calm down at all and had the patience to read such boring books.
Therefore, in order to keep the knowledge in the books as his own, Luo Xiaoyan directly began to consume divine energy cards to improve his learning ability, and then read as much as possible through the large number of books on alchemy knowledge collected by Lin Zhecheng.
Time passes minute by minute.
It took Luo Xiaoyan nearly an hour to read through all the books that Lin Zhecheng had collected and regarded as treasures. All the knowledge was integrated into the sea of consciousness and became his own knowledge.
In this process, only about 60 Divine Power Kapka were consumed. Such consumption was extremely cost-effective for Luo Xiaoyan.
After reading the book, Luo Xiaoyan really had nothing to do, but he saw that Lin Zhecheng was still busy studying the paper information that was spread on his desk. The paper looked a little yellow. While reading, he flipped through a piece of paper in his hand.
This ancient dictionary.
The ancient dictionary mentioned here actually refers to the Chinese dictionary that almost every student of that era had before Luo Xiaoyan traveled through time.
"Senior, what are you looking for? Do you want to find information about the medicinal materials in the prescription in your hand in the dictionary? Instead of wasting time looking for information on medicinal materials in the dictionary, it is better to go directly to a book called "Compendium of Materia Medica"
"The ancient book." Luo Xiaoyan walked up to Lin Zhecheng, took a casual look, and realized that Lin Zhecheng was busy looking for information related to several herbs recorded in the ancient elixir recipe, so he spoke directly to him.
"Do you know "Compendium of Materia Medica"?" After listening to Luo Xiaoyan's words, Lin Zhecheng finally stopped busy, raised his head, looked at Luo Xiaoyan curiously, and asked him.
"I know there is such an ancient book, which records a lot of detailed information related to herbal medicine." Luo Xiaoyan responded casually.
"I also know, but ancient books such as "Compendium of Materia Medica" are too precious. It is simply unrealistic for everyone to have a copy." Lin Zhecheng frowned slightly, as if he remembered something, and immediately continued to say to Luo Xiaoyan, "
Since you know the ancient book "Compendium of Materia Medica", you must have seen it with your own eyes. Tell me quickly and truthfully, where did you see "Compendium of Materia Medica"? Who is in the hands of that "Compendium of Materia Medica" now?"
"Uh... this..." Luo Xiaoyan didn't know how to answer for a moment, because he had indeed seen "Compendium of Materia Medica" in the bookstore, but that was before he traveled through his previous life, and he was not a medical major.
Students will naturally not be interested in books like "Compendium of Materia Medica".
"What? That's a big shot, and you don't even dare to mention his name casually?" Lin Zhecheng asked with a frown.
"No." Luo Xiaoyan shook his head and said, "Because I have never seen the "Compendium of Materia Medica". I only heard an alchemist mention this ancient book, so I remembered it in my heart. I just saw you looking for it in a dictionary.
Regarding the information about herbal medicine, I remembered this ancient book and thought that I might gain something from searching it in the "Compendium of Materia Medica", so I mentioned it casually."
"Oh... So that's what happened. I was so happy that I was in vain." Lin Zhecheng shook his head slightly disappointedly, and then continued to work on his own things. At the same time, he explained to Luo Xiaoyan, "You don't know something. The disaster that year
When he came to the earth, a large number of books and teaching materials that could be seen everywhere were destroyed, and ancient books such as "Compendium of Materia Medica" were one of them. In addition, these ancient books were considered treasures in the eyes of alchemists, and they were reluctant to reveal the contents of them.
Information, this makes it extremely unrealistic for a large number of today's alchemists to obtain copies of "Compendium of Materia Medica", hey..."
Having said this, Lin Zhecheng let out a long sigh of helplessness, then said no more and continued his work.
Seeing this situation, Luo Xiaoyan was completely speechless.
After a moment of silence, Luo Xiaoyan no longer hesitated and said directly to Lin Zhecheng: "Senior, how about we do a trade comparison?"
"I don't have time to do any business now. You can stay where it is to cool down. Don't bother me here." Lin Zhecheng didn't raise his head, and didn't bother to care about Luo Xiaoyan's purpose of coming to find him. He responded casually.
"Senior, you should first listen to the deal I want to make with you, and then refuse it later." Luo Xiaoyan said again.
"You said it, I'm listening." Lin Zhecheng responded.
"I will help you sort out the properties, efficacy, living habits, and under what circumstances they can be found in all the medicinal materials in the prescription in detail. All you need to do is help me tell you what I came to see you for."
It's been dealt with, what do you think?" Luo Xiaoyan said.
"Are you kidding me?" Lin Zhecheng raised his head and looked at Luo Xiaoyan carefully. Seeing that he was young and didn't have much experience, he thought that even he couldn't do something like this guy in front of him.
, it was naturally impossible to do it, and he immediately asked Luo Xiaoyan a confused question, looking a little annoyed. If he hadn't met the visitor, it was probably his first time to the Alchemy Master Guild, and he would have issued an expulsion order, and directly
Chapter completed!
