Chapter 5 Synthetic Pharmacopoeia, after returning to the village
and clearing out the medicinal material books in the medicine shop, Su Ye went to the Spirit Hall again with a backpack on his back.
Money makes the world go round, and this is absolutely true.
After spending a few gold soul coins to bribe the insiders, Su Ye successfully obtained eight soul beast information atlases for popular science for low-level soul masters.
A backpack of books was a bit heavy, so Su Ye did not return to Tomorrow Village, but found a hotel in the city to stay.
Crash-
the books were poured from the backpack onto the soft big bed.
In his previous life, he felt sleepy when reading, but now Su Ye inexplicably loved reading.
"Come again!"
Su Ye rubbed his hands, secretly thinking that synthesis is really addictive.
Medicinal material book + medicinal material book, synthesize!
Ding!
Get "Introduction to Medicinal Materials".
"Introduction to Medicinal Materials" x2, combine again.
Ding!
Get "Basic Illustrated Guide to Medicinal Materials".
Ding!
...
After a while, Su Ye had two more thick books in his hands.
One is called "Pharmacopoeia Volume 1", which includes all the illustrations of medicinal materials in the Douluo World.
Another is called "Soul Beast Gallery", which, as the name suggests, is a summary of the explanation of soul beasts.
"Medicinal material knowledge..."
"Soul beast knowledge..."
"Now they are all complete!"
Su Ye touched his chin, somewhat impressed by his own strategy.
He is not a soul master, and cannot go to the Soul Hunting Forest to hunt soul beasts through the Wuhun Hall.
To hunt soul beasts and obtain soul rings, you must go to the forest where wild soul beasts gather.
If you go to the forest, you will not do a good thing to plow the land. How can the new medicinal materials have room to absorb nutrients and grow?
Well, he can also help plants solve the pressure of buying a house.
"Oh, it would be great if I had a storage ring."
Looking at the two thick books in front of him, Su Ye scratched his head and couldn't help but feel troubled.
He can't carry them every day, and the gold coins are also very heavy.
But the storage ring thing, he didn't know how to combine it even if he wanted to.
"Forget it, let's put it here first."
After putting the things into the cabinet and taking the gold coins, Su Ye left the hotel again.
West of the city.
Following the clanging sound of iron, Su Ye found a blacksmith shop.
The flagpole stood tall, the cloth sail fluttered, and a hammer mark was revealed.
A dozen big men were busy in the shop, swinging hammers with muscular arms, and sparks flew everywhere.
Seeing Su Ye coming, a muscular man in an apron immediately shook the water in the cup and greeted him happily.
"Brother, are you here to make something?"
"Don't worry, the things made by our Shuta Brothers Blacksmith Shop are of absolutely top quality."
"If you don't believe it, you can ask around. The utensils that come out of us are all like this for the guests."
The big man grinned with his white teeth, showing a powerful thumbs-up, and he fed himself a bag of salt.
Su Ye asked directly: "How good are you at forging swords?"
"No problem, it's a piece of cake."
Barshu closed his eyes and boasted. It's just a sword. He is the best at this thing. It's easy to meet the needs of this small place.
After a glance, the shop seemed to be full of ironware. Su Ye asked again, "I want to forge it with rare metals. The harder the metal, the better. Can you do it?"
"Then you have found the right person!"
Barshu made an OK gesture, looking extremely confident, "I'm putting this out there. As long as you can pay, unless the metal is so hard that it can't be burned, it will be a sword in my hands!"
Seeing the other party so proud, Su Ye couldn't help but believe it a little. What he wanted was just hard metal, and the sword was more of a cover.
Of course, he also wanted to make a good sword to facilitate hunting soul beasts.
After thinking about it, Su Ye took out ten gold soul coins from his pocket.
"Okay, then make me a hundred swords."
"This is the deposit!"
Hiss~
Gold Soul Coins~
The golden light made Balshu's eyes shine. He hadn't encountered such a large order for a long time.
Just as he was about to take the gold coins greedily, he seemed to think of something, his eyes suddenly glared, and he burst out.
"You just said, how many swords do you want us to make?!"
"One hundred." Su Ye's words faded.
"You..." Balshu's iron tower-like body trembled, and he couldn't stand the warmth of the sun.
This... Difficult game~
Realizing that it was a bit difficult, Su Ye smiled and changed his requirements.
"It's okay, if you can't make so many, fifty will be fine. I'll go to other blacksmith shops later."
"..."
Balshu was speechless, just clenched his fists.
It was careless, it turned out to be a life-and-death game...
...
Three days later, in the afterglow of the sunset.
On the outskirts of Luocheng, an oxcart carrying several large boxes was slowly driving on the dirt road, with a young man in black clothes sitting on it.
The young man had sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, and was very handsome. The ox walked very slowly, mooing from time to time, while he was studying with the book in his hands.
"Well, the effect of this three-flower fruit is stronger than the Qingling grass. If you encounter a tree, you will make a fortune."
"With dozens of fruits, you may be able to combine them into the Ten Thousand Years Fruit King. You can remember it first."
Swish -
Su Ye tore off the page of the book directly. A good memory is not as good as manual memory, which will be more convenient for reviewing later.
Moo -
Driving the oxcart, Su Ye returned to Tomorrow Village.
In the small courtyard, Old Tom was lying on a chair, enjoying the leisure time.
"Ye Wa Zi, I haven't seen you for a few days, and you're still carrying so many things. Where have you been?"
"Nothing, I went to Luocheng for a walk."
"Luocheng is good, it's good for you to see the world . Oh, if I had known you were going to Luocheng, I should have accompanied you to my second son's place, maybe he could help you with something."
"By the way, you want medicinal herbs, right? I went to the mountains to pick a lot of them these days. They are all planted in my backyard. If you need them, just go and get them yourself."
"..."
After not seeing each other for a few days, Old Tom seemed to talk more.
Although he had only lived here for half a month, the old man's open-mindedness, especially the gentle care, made Su Ye feel very kind and friendly.
To be honest, Old Tom treated him like his own grandson and wiped his ass a lot for him.
If there was no system, he would probably accept to live a stable life in Tomorrow Village.
But now, his heart has flown to this entire continent.
Jumping off the carriage, Su Ye sat next to Old Tom. After hesitating for a while, he still spoke.
"Old man, I'm leaving."
The chirping of cicadas in the trees was particularly harsh.
Without asking for the specific reason, Old Tom nodded after a moment of silence. He knew that Su Ye was a man with ideas and was willing to take action.
This Tomorrow Village is still too small after all~
"Is it urgent?"
"Yeah, I'm going to leave tomorrow."
With a sigh in his heart, Old Tom pretended to be indifferent, fanning himself with his cowboy hat and slowly stood up.
"It's better to leave. You've been fiddling with those noisy things all day, disturbing the village."
"Remember to take all the things you've tinkered with with you, otherwise I, an old man, won't dare to live in this yard again."
Old Tom walked away slowly.
It's just... the figure under the cowboy hat seemed to be even older.
