Chapter 256: Ice Jade Herbs (2)
Lou Yu looked at Qian Ye, asking, “What?”
“It’s just I am too extremely talented. If I went to learn potions, other pharmacists would all lose their jobs. So I could only quit.” said Qian Ye with his chest held out.
Lou Yu sneered, “Let me help you ask if there is any spare room of the nearest mental hospital.”
“My prince, what do you mean?” said Qian Ye crossly.
Lou Yu sighed and then said, “I think you are seriously ill here in the head, so you need immediate treatment!”
Qian Ye, “...”
While walking, the one-eyed lieutenant general handed a pile of papers to Mo Fei, “My crown princess, these are for you.”
Mo Fei took it over and had a look, finding that it was a list of potions.
Mo Fei looked at the list in his hands and then the single-eyed lieutenant general, “Lieutenant general, it’s really a lot of potions needed.”
“Yeah, there isn’t too much fund in the army, and there are also not many pharmacists in those cities around. You know, the potions are too precious. We really can not afford it, and even if we can, we have nowhere to buy. Fortunately you are here. Now the whole army depends on you. We got nothing here but only star herbs. So you just make them as you want, however high the failure rate is.” smiled the single-eyed lieutenant general.
Mo Fei could see the enthusiasm in his eyes, like he would turn into a pile of precious potions the next second.
“Lieutenant general, giving me so many orders, you really think highly of me.” Mo Fei exclaimed.
“My crown princess, you just grow a face of potion master. If I look down upon you, I’d be a total fool.” The single-eyed lieutenant general sucked up.
Mo Fei touched his chin, asking, “Do I look like a potion master?”
“Of course! No one looks more like a potion master than you do!” said the one-eyed lieutenant general while cupping his hands.
“You really have a good taste!” Mo Fei looked at him appreciatively, “Only for you words, I wouldn’t let you down!”
“Then everything will be counting on you.” said the single-eyed lieutenant general with a serious tone.
When Mo Fei set his foot in the potion room again, it had already completely changed, both the tables and the floor was dustless, even those bottle were all clean.
Suddenly some crowing sound of the chicken was heard, which really didn’t go with this place.
“What is that sound?” asked Lou Yu, frowning.
“It’s some cocks! Didn’t you recognize that? Something wrong with your ears?” asked Qian Ye.
“Of course I can. I am just curious why the cocks would appear here.” said Lou Yu coldly.
As Chen Bing opened the door and saw a whole room of people, he was stoned, while the single-eyed lieutenant general’s face turned all dark.
“Huh? You are all here?” said Chen Bing, a bit surprised.
The single-eyed lieutenant general looked at Chen Bing, gritting his teeth, “Scar, I told you like a thousand times. Never come to my potion room. Never come to my potion room! Why didn’t you listen?”
Scar gave him a complaining look, “Anyway no one is using it. Why can’t you offer it to me?”
The single-eyed lieutenant general gave him a hard stare, “Stop it!”
Scar looked around the whole room and said with a surprising tone, “Wow! This room is so clean now!”
The single-eyed lieutenant general gave him a cold look and said, “This potion room from now on belongs to the third crown princess! So if you want to eat baked chicken, you can only do it out in the wild!”
On hearing him, Scar quickly put his hands behind his back, trying to hide the pheasant, while saying hurriedly, “Yes, sure thing!”
Looking at the list in his hand, Mo Fei started to refine those potions.
After watching for a while, the single-eyed lieutenant general and Scar left one after another.
“Scar, you just offered your potion room to the third crown princess?” asked Scar.
“He is a level five pharmacist. Is there any problem that I offer it to him?” said The single-eyed lieutenant general reasonably.
Chen Bing scratched his head, saying with a mysterious tone, “I heard the reason the third crown princess could have topped the potion competition was that Lou Yu cheated for him.”
“That’s just rumors.” said the single-eyed lieutenant general disapprovingly.
“Though it’s only a rumor, I think it makes sense. The crown princess is from a small family. Before he got married with Prince Yu, it’s said he has never refined potions before. What is the concept of a level five potion master? Even those old and big potion families could not cultivate one at such a young age! Even a level four one at such a young age is already a rare thing.” Scar frowned.
“Actually I also think he is not supposed to be a level five pharmacist. But since he could simulate a level five one, at least he should be at level two. That’s already good enough.” said the one-eyed lieutenant general thoughtfully.
Feng Xin then walked over, “Where have you two been?”
The one-eyed lieutenant general said cockily, “I have figured out a way to let the crown princess go back into the potion room.”
Feng Xin frowned, “So how is his potion level?”
The one-eyed lieutenant general shrugged his shoulders, “I am also not very clear, but the fortunate thing is we have one now.”
Feng Xin looked at Chen Bing with suspicion, “Scar, what are you thinking? Why do you look so weird?”
Scar scratched his head, “I am thinking taking the potion he makes wouldn’t kill us, right?”
Feng Xin stared at Scar, and said only after quite a while, “I don’t think so.”
