The first heavy snow this winter fell like this in a mighty manner. When the sun rose, the snow on the long intercity road had been cleared away, like a knife cut into a pure white cake.

A small electric donkey was speeding along this straight gap, and the cold wind blew into the face, giving off a fresh and dry fragrance. In other words, it was a smell that could be called "cold".

"By refining this elixir, will I be able to master the power of the immortal body?" Qi Dian looked at the warm morning sun ahead, his eyes full of longing, "When I got this green lotus, I never expected that it would have such an effect."

Yue Wen smiled and said, "The way you go to Old Bai to make medicine is like this. If you want to buy a cantaloupe, he will give you a cantaloupe or watermelon. It will probably be bigger and sweeter than your original melon, but it will definitely be different from the one you want. If you ask him, he will also say that all you want are mediocre melons."

The day before yesterday, they got the list of ingredients Old Bai needed to refine the medicine, withdrew money from the Flame Ghost Hall's branch account, and asked Supervision Bureau to help with the purchase. Now that Immortal Material had gotten all the ingredients for the medicine, the three little ones got up early to deliver the medicine to Old Bai.

When I arrived at the mental hospital, I saw the security guard at the door sleeping there. Zhao Xing'er stepped forward and knocked on the glass, "Sir, do you have a gas mask?"

"Ah?" The security guard opened his eyes in a daze. Before he could see the person clearly, he asked in surprise, "Yes, yes, yes, the best gas masks, one thousand and one, five thousand and three. I advise you to keep two as spares. How many do you want to buy, little girl?"

"I won't buy it, so I'll just ask." Zhao Xing'er waved his hand casually.

The security guard looked at the backs of the three young people and cursed angrily, "Are you patients?"

When I came to Old Bai's workshop, I found that it was clean and tidy, and he himself was wearing a brand-new white coat that was not stained by dust. He was sitting there, standing guard with one eye and sentry with the other.

"Yao." Yue Wen pushed the door open and said in surprise, "Aren't you researching new drugs this time?"

Old Bai said in a gentle voice, "I heard that you are coming this morning. I have been happy since last night. Sit down quickly, where is my Thundercloud Green Lotus?"

"It's all here." Qi Dian put all the materials on the table, looking a little nervous.

When I got here, I was still a little uneasy. After all, it was a bit ridiculous to entrust my opportunity and huge sum of money to a mentally ill person.

If it weren't for Yue Wen, Qi Dian would never have thought of coming to a mental hospital to find someone to make medicine.

Although Yue Wen said that he chose Old Bai based on the efficacy of the drug, it is already ridiculous to give a mental patient a chance to prove the efficacy of the drug.

If Yue Wen knew this idea in Qi Dian's mind, he might tell him... In fact, when I took the elixir refined by Old Bai for the first time, I was gambling - so I gave it to you first.

It was only after experiencing the adventures of Wang Miaomiao and Demon Domain with Qi Dian that Yue Wen believed in Old Bai's ability to refine medicine.

Old Bai looked at the table with excitement in his eyes. He opened the box, picked up the Thundercloud Green Lotus, and said in a trembling tone, "Old Fan, we actually saw Thundercloud Green Lotus. We only saw it once when we were studying in the Medicine King Academy. At that time, even the elders were competing to refine this medicine."

"As long as the Six Heavenly Thunder Cracking Soul-Entering Pill is refined, the pill recipe I created will have another famous medicine." Old Bai turned around and said, "I wonder if next year's Medicine King Assembly will have a place for me."

Medicine King Assembly is hosted by the Medicine King Academy, a grand gathering of the top alchemists in the human world, held every two years. In the past two years, all alchemists who have developed new prescriptions can sign up to attend the meeting, take out their own prescriptions, and have them tasted by pharmacists from all walks of life.

In the end, the new recipe was recognized as the best alchemist and will win the title of "King of Medicine" for the next two years.

Pharmacists all over the world hope to win the first prize at the conference.

Even if it is only nominated once, it is a very important honor.

Yue Wen did not expect Old Bai to have such ambitions. He reminded, "Then you have to take good treatment and try to be discharged from the hospital next year." Old Bai said angrily, "What do you mean? Old Fan and I can be discharged from the hospital at any time."

"You can't even say that." Qi Dian couldn't help but say.

"I won't talk nonsense to you." Old Bai rolled his eyes with one eye, and looked at the corner with the other eye, saying, "You doubt my recipe? Just take a look."

Zhao Xing'er said, "I'll have to ask the doctor to increase the dose of medicine when I go downstairs later."

"I will brew Great Thunderous Critical Immortal Drink later. It may take three days to wait there. I can start refining the medicine here at the same time, which will take about a day or two." Old Bai said, "You can watch me here and take turns to go out..."

Just like Diamond Granny, when precious materials are handed over to the refining master or alchemist, it is easy for them to run away with the fairy items. Therefore, many clients will keep an eye on important refining tasks throughout the process.

Old Bai looked around, "No, you can just take Old Fan away as a hostage."

"No, no." Yue Wen waved his hands quickly, "We believe in your character and the security of the mental hospital."

"Okay." Old Bai waved his hand and said impatiently, "Then just do it yourself, I'm going to start..."

"Wait a minute, I have one more thing to ask you for." Yue Wen said suddenly.

"What's the matter?" Old Bai frowned immediately.

A displeased expression is like taking off your pants, and your boss has asked you to come to the company for a small meeting.

"We recently performed a special mission and used some poisons, and found them to be very useful." Yue Wen said with a bad smile, "You are so talented in refining medicine, have you ever refined poisons? I want to buy some."

"Are you insulting my integrity?" Old Bai frowned deeper, "Medicine King Academy disciples all know that a moral alchemist will never make poison to harm anyone! Especially a genius alchemist like me. I make medicine to assist in cultivation, eliminate pain, and expand the limits of the human body..." "Let me tell you straight., Xiaobai." Yue Wen also frowned and said, "Brother has made a little fortune recently. If you have an effective poison, the price is easy to tell. "Huh?" Old Bai paused in anger, and then said: "I don't have poison, but I can show you some defective products that appeared in the process of refining the medicine."

Old Bai took the three little ones to the inner room of his workshop. There were many medicine cabinets with messy labels.

Many of them have strange drug names written on them, and more often there are no drug names at all, just some strange symbols. If Old Bai suddenly died one day, no one would be able to guess what these drugs were used for.

He glanced over several rows of cabinets with one eye and opened a drawer, "Here, this."

"Last year, there were several cultivated patients in this hospital who often made trouble at night, and even sedatives didn't help. The director asked me if I could make some stronger sleeping pills."

"I only took a slight step..."

Old Bai put the box on the table. There were probably dozens of small white pills in it. "I made this bottle of medicine and gave each of them one pill, and then there was no fuss."

"How long will the effect last?" Yue Wen asked.

"We don't know the exact effect yet," Old Bai said, "Because those people haven't woken up yet."

Three little ones. "?"

"It's medicine for practitioners. Of course, the effect I refined is stronger." Bai Yaoshi explained, "Who knows that those few cultivation levels are too weak. They only have the body of the First Realm. It is normal for them to sleep for a year and a half. I estimate that Third Realm is enough to take and sleep for a month, but Fourth Realm is too strong and you can only sleep for half an hour at most. If Fifth Realm, the effect of the medicine will only last for a few minutes, but Sixth Realm will definitely have no effect."

"Can this thing be soluble in water?" Yue Wen asked.

"Expert." Old Bai smiled evilly, "This thing is soluble in water, colorless and odorless, don't worry."

"I want this box." Yue Wen bought it in one go.

In fact, the opportunities for drugging practitioners are very limited, and most practitioners who are a little vigilant will not use questionable food and drinking water.

But if it is in the right situation, it can still come in handy.

The last time Ah Hei Yan was killed, Yue Wen tasted the sweetness.

"Refreshing." Old Bai said, "The name of this box of medicine is 'Like covering a big man's head with a sack and beating the magic medicine'. This is just one box, and the raw materials are not cheap. Can I sell it to you for 300,000?"

"No problem." Yue Wen didn't counteroffer.

He felt that Old Bai must have been obtained from a higher price. It only cost half a million to help him refine Great Thunderous Critical Immortal Drink. This bottle of medicine could not be worth so much money.

But after all, you are buying poison. As Old Bai said, many serious alchemists don't like to ruin their reputation by refining poison, so they have to pay a premium when buying poison.

Moreover, I just told Old Bai that the price is negotiable, and it would seem stingy to argue over it at this time.

The most important thing is that greedy Flame Ghost Hall money is easy to come by, and it really doesn't hurt to spend it.

As for the name of the medicine, he blocked the long list of interfering information Old Bai and automatically filtered it into "Meng Han Medicine". Anyway, the effect of this medicine is somewhat similar to the ancient "Mongolian sweat medicine".

"Hey." Old Bai suddenly beamed, and without hiding it, he opened another drawer and said, "Boss, take a look at this again." As he said that, he took out another tube of green potion and showed it to the three of them. "I originally wanted to refine a magical medicine containing Spring Autumn Great Dao, and drinking it can make people immortal."

"Isn't that too strong?" Zhao Xing'er said.

"I didn't expect it, alas." Old Bai sighed, "I actually failed."

"You don't even have to think about this kind of idea, you know it will fail!" Qi Dian said.

"This potion developed will indeed make people live longer after drinking it, but it will make everything in the body become sluggish." Old Bai explained, "To put it simply, if you live for three more minutes after drinking it, your activities within the next minute will be It is extended to three minutes to complete. As for the scope and degree of the effect of the medicine, the effect is obvious below Sixth Realm, and it will change depending on the level of cultivation." "Turtle Speed Potion?" Yue Wen quickly understood the key points.

"You can think so." Old Bai nodded, "There are three more bottles of this potion, so I'll sell them to you for 150,000 yuan."

"That's why I can let you ask for such an exorbitant price now." Yue Wen said with a smile, "Deal."

After selling three Turtle Speed Potion, Old Bai was very happy.

Turning his head, he took out another box of purple-black ointment.

"This box is what I originally wanted to refine and use for Blood-Activating and Stasis-Removing Godly Medicine." He explained enthusiastically, "But I didn't expect the effect to be so good. Although it can indeed activate blood circulation and remove blood stasis after applying it, if you are not careful, it will accelerate the blood to the point where it directly breaks through the skin... Anyone with a weaker cultivation level will not be able to withstand this blood-activating effect."

"This ointment seems to be able to be applied on the edge of a weapon?" Zhao Xing'er thought immediately, "As long as a small wound is opened, no matter how strong the opponent's repair ability is, it will not be able to stop the bleeding, and the blood will keep flowing out!"

Yue Wen gave a thumbs up, "I think so too."

Qi Dian nodded and praised, "Either you two are born bad."

Old Bai also praised, "You guys really don't have any good stuff. This box of ointment only sold you 500,000..."

"Take it." Yue Wen waved his hand.

Old Bai was overjoyed and immediately opened another drawer, "Boss, please allow me to introduce to you the following model, which I am most proud of, Marvelous Lust-Inducing Powder..."

Yue Wen locked the drawer and said, "Close it!"
