Chapter 43: 43 Xu Zhiyao leaves
43 Xu Zhiyao leavesThe three of them started to give their answers with full confidence, but as they wrote further, everyone's expression changed.
Xu Zhiyao went from being full of confidence to being nervous and ugly. Jiang Feng also nodded his head unconsciously, as if searching carefully in his mind.
Lan Ying had been observing the three people silently. When she saw the looks of Xu Zhiyao and Jiang Feng, she shook her head secretly. She turned to look at Luo Mingyi, but was dumbfounded.
Luo Mingyi was writing furiously, and every piece of paper was filled with words.
Lan Ying couldn't help but walk to Luo Mingyi, curiously looking at what Luo Mingyi wrote on the paper.
Seeing this, she was dumbfounded again.
This full page was actually all filled with answers according to her requirements. Every sentence and every word was not redundant.
An hour passed quickly, and just when the time was almost up, Luo Mingyi finally stopped the last stroke. Satisfied, he put all the hundred test papers neatly in place, stood up and handed them to Lanying.
"Senior Sister Lanying, I have completed it. Please check it out."
Lan Ying showed a very satisfied smile. This child has a future!
As the time came, Xu Zhiyao and Jiang Feng also handed the test papers to Lan Ying, but their expressions were very nervous and uneasy.
"Then let's move on to the next item, identifying spiritual medicine."
After Lan Ying finished speaking, she waved her hand and a pile of spiritual herbs appeared in front of the three of them.
"Sort the medicines by their characteristics, years, and types. Time: one hour, start now!"
After Lan Ying finished speaking, she waved her hand, and a misty barrier immediately appeared between the three of them to prevent them from cheating.
Luo Mingyi looked at the pile of messy spiritual herbs in front of him, squatted down, and began to sort them one by one.
"This is a black-leaf lotus, a neutral water-attribute herb. Hmm, it's thirty years old. Put it here."
"Thousand Essence Leaves, mainly used for refining elixirs to improve cultivation, fifty years old, put here."
...
Every time Luo Mingyi picked up a spiritual medicine, a complete and detailed introduction to this spiritual medicine would appear in his mind.
It only took half an hour for Luo Mingyi to sort out the pile of messy spiritual medicines and stood aside.
Lan Ying had been paying attention to Luo Mingyi intentionally or unintentionally, and saw her stand up and stand aside. I was surprised that she had managed to classify so many spiritual medicines so quickly.
Lan Ying used her spiritual sense to scan the child, wondering how this child did it! It's totally correct!
Another half an hour later, Xu Zhiyao and Jiang Feng had finished sorting all the spiritual medicines in front of them.
"Okay, this exam is over. The first one to pass is Luo Mingyi, with a perfect score!"
Xu Zhiyao and Jiang Feng looked at Luo Mingyi, who looked calm, with shock on their faces.
Jiang Feng didn't say anything, but Xu Zhiyao said, "Perfect, that means she didn't make any mistakes? How is that possible!"
Facing Xu Zhiyao's questioning, Luo Mingyi wanted to speak, but Lan Ying said the next sentence.
"Jiang Feng, excellent! Xu Zhiyao, not good enough!"
"I..." Xu Zhiyao suddenly fell silent.
"Do you question their abilities just because you haven't done it yourself? This is Luo Mingyi's test paper and the classification of spiritual medicines, take a look for yourselves!" Lan Ying waved her hand, and the barrier between the three of them disappeared.
Xu Zhiyao and Jiang Feng walked to the spiritual medicines that Luo Mingyi had classified. After comparing them with their own memories, they had to admit that Luo Mingyi had done what they could not do.
Then, they saw the densely packed words on the hundreds of test papers.
The doubt in his eyes had long since turned into shock and admiration.
"Well, now that the results are out, Xu Zhiyao, you have the worst score, so you should leave the mountain now."
Lan Ying took out a bag of spirit stones and handed it to her. "Although you haven't completed your mission, Uncle Qing Ning has always been kind. These spirit stones are your compensation."
Xu Zhiyao's face was pale and she bit her lower lip tightly. She raised her head and looked at Lan Ying and Jiang Feng in the room one by one, and finally her eyes fell on Luo Mingyi.
The flash of jealousy in his eyes was inadvertently noticed by Luo Mingyi.
Xu Zhiyao turned around and came to Lan Ying. Even though she was unwilling, she could not change the situation.
"Thank you, Uncle Qingning, and thank you, Sister Lanying."
Seeing that she was sensible, Lan Ying gave her the bag of spirit stones and said something else.
"You don't have to think too much. With your grades, even if you stay here, you'll probably be scolded. You might as well choose an easier mission."
"Thank you, Senior Sister Lanying, for your advice." Xu Zhiyao hid her resentment, but since things had come to this, she could only answer obediently.
After Xu Zhiyao left, Lan Ying brought Luo Mingyi and Jiang Feng to Alchemy Room No. 2 in the front yard.
As soon as you enter the alchemy room, a strong aroma of herbs hits you in the face.
The alchemy room was very spacious, with antique shelves on both sides filled with medicine bottles of various colors and some strange bottles and jars.
In the center of the alchemy room, there is a ten-foot-tall dark green alchemy furnace. The dark runes on the furnace make it clear that it is of extraordinary quality.
Under the alchemy furnace, there is a red flame burning, which is the earth fire.
Luo Mingyi and Jiang Feng looked at everything in the alchemy room with curiosity. All of this was unfamiliar to them.
"Xin Ran, you stay here for a month and tell them the rules and daily tasks in detail. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first." Lan Ying said to Xin Ran who had been waiting in alchemy room No. 2.
"Senior Sister Lan Ying, Xin Ran understands." Xin Ran nodded.
After Lan Ying left, Xin Ran took Luo Mingyi and Jiang Feng to the alchemy room to introduce the items and their functions one by one.
"There is a door under this alchemy furnace that leads to underground fire, which can be used to make pills and refine tools. There is also a section in your room. Although we are only disciples of the alchemy room and do not need to make pills, we must know how to use this underground fire."
"Look, this is the switch for the earth fire and the knob for adjusting the flame size. Just use your spiritual power and divine sense to control it and adjust it to the flame size you need."
Xin Ran brought the two of them to the underground fire furnace screen that was nearly a hundred meters long, and carefully demonstrated to them how to start the underground fire and adjust the flame size.
Luo Mingyi and the other person also stared at Xin Ran's movements carefully, afraid of missing a crucial operation.
"If you have nothing to do on weekdays and Master Qing Ning is not here to make pills, you can get familiar with this earth fire. When you are proficient in it, you can help Master Qing Ning when he makes pills later."
Luo Mingyi and Jiang Feng nodded.
Xin Ran took them to another room in the alchemy room, which was filled with various kinds of elixirs.
