C448 Olfactory herb

3A kid his age? That's impossible!     3

    

On the other side, Elder Yu was clearly shocked when he heard the child in front of him speak without pause. He turned to a guard who had always been behind him and softly said, "Go, bring the names of the medicinal ingredients on his table."    

    

"Yes."    

    

The guards behind Elder Yu quickly took out a piece of paper filled with words and handed it over.    

    

"Let me see …"    

    

That's right, the content that the child had said was exactly the same as the content on the paper, to the point that the best medicine was even more so. At least, the paper did not say where the medicinal ingredients were taken from, but he had said it all out loud, and there was no doubt that the child was not spouting nonsense.    

    

He didn't even look at these herbs. Just by listening, he was able to distinguish these herbs, and not only that, he was also able to tell how many years these herbs had been grown for. He could even tell the quality and environment of these herbs.    

    

This was not a simple matter of a dozen or twenty different medicinal herbs being mixed together for others to distinguish, but more than a hundred different medicinal herbs.    

    

There were over a hundred types of herbs. The smell of the herbs would cover each other up. Some of the herbs would change the smell even if mixed together. There were also many herbs.    

    

There were many people that could identify medicinal herbs through their smell, but there were very few of them. Moreover, all of them were old alchemists who had spent their entire lives dealing with medicinal herbs, so how old was this child in front of them?    

    

He should be around ten years old, yet he was able to achieve such a feat. Could it be that he was born in the medicine room?    

    

The most amazing thing was that he could still differentiate them so clearly. Even the alchemists in the tower could probably only do this much because of Master Dock.    

    

Elder Yu looked at the child in front of him deeply, and said to the guard beside him in a soft voice: "Go up, tell Master Dock about this matter, and invite Master Dock to come down to take a look."    

    

"Yes." The guard responded and turned around to leave.    

    

Chang Sheng watched as the guard quickly left, his speed of speech not slowing in the slightest as he continued to recount the medicinal ingredients that he had identified. Very quickly, he had already said ninety-nine traditional Chinese medicinal ingredients, but his voice still did not stop.    

    

"Red Tower leaves, from around three hundred years old, medium; Green Sky Leaf, from the most suitable warm and rainy area for Green Sky Leaf to grow in, high quality …"    

    

Upstairs, looking at the children who were still talking about something, everyone had strange looks on their faces. Didn't they say that there were a total of 99 types of medicinal herbs? The child had already spoken more than a hundred times, but he still hadn't stopped.    

    

Everyone turned their heads to look at Elder Yu, and out of their expectations, Elder Yu did not interrupt him, instead, his face revealed a look of astonishment, it seemed like what the child said was always true, even if there were more than 100 kinds, what he said was also true.    

    

Elder Yu looked at the piece of paper in his hand. It was placed specifically on the last column with emphasis on the numbers, causing his heart to tremble.    

    

This time around, the number of medicinal ingredients on everyone's table was not ninety-nine, but one hundred and eight. The reason why he said ninety-nine was because these ninety-nine medicinal ingredients were relatively easy to distinguish, while the other nine were extremely easy to mix with one of the medicinal ingredients, so he specifically mentioned ninety-nine. However, the young man in front of him was only able to smell the medicinal ingredients, and others would find it difficult to distinguish them even if they were to distinguish them carefully.    

    

What was even more amazing was that he clearly knew of these nine medicinal herbs. The last medicinal herb he mentioned just so happened to be these nine medicinal herbs.    

    

'Monster! This child is too monstrous! '    

    

"Flameless precious fruit, poorly preserved, barely usable. Low-grade materials, a total of 169 different herbs."    

    

After Chang Sheng finished speaking of the one hundred and hundredth medicinal herbs, he also mentioned another medicinal ingredient, which was why he stopped talking.    

    

On the other side, Elder Yu's face changed again when he heard that. How could there be 109 kinds of herbs? In total, there were only 108 types of medicinal herbs.    

    

It seemed like this child was still too young. This time, he was wrong.    

    

Not to mention concocting the wrong medicinal herb, it was impossible to even use the slightest difference in the amount of medicinal herbs used. This child's question did not seem to be too wrong. He only mentioned an additional medicinal herb that was not present, but concocting the pills was a fatal mistake.    

    

However, he was still young, and had such talent at such a young age. His future alchemy strength would definitely not be low, and if he performed well next, he could let him stay in the Heavencraft Tower.    

    

Elder Yu thought for a while and looked at the child in front of him. For the first time since he had appeared, a smile appeared on his face: "Little Friend, you are right.    

    

"That's because your people are useless!" Chang Sheng looked at Elder Yu with contempt, and said disdainfully: "You can't even differentiate between the medicinal herbs, yet you want to test others? What a joke."    

    

"This …"    

    

"This child!"    

    

Everyone upstairs looked at the child downstairs in surprise. This child was too arrogant. Did he not know where he was? He was at Heavencraft Tower, did he even know where Heavencraft Tower was, and he actually said that people at Heavencraft Tower were useless, a joke!    

    

This child was too arrogant!    

    

Elder Yu's face instantly became ugly as he opened his mouth. Just as he was about to speak, the sound of hurried footsteps came from behind him.    

    

Following the sound of footsteps, an anxious voice rang out, "I heard that there is a kid who has a deep understanding of medicinal herbs that is attending the examination. Where is that kid? Let this old man take a look."    

    

Elder Yu heard the sound coming from behind him, and shook his head. The sound was known to everyone as Master Dock, and he was indeed the same as before, not caring about the test at all, as long as he heard of the appearance of the genius in pill refining, he would immediately run over and say it out loud, as if he was afraid that others would not know.    

    

Doing so would affect the entire exam, but he was the Master Dock, the master who concocted the strongest pellet within the Daqi Dynasty!    

    

Elder Yu turned his head upon hearing the voice, seeing an old man dressed in a grey robe with a ruddy complexion, he bowed slightly, and respectfully called out "Master Dock". Then, he walked to the front of Master Dock and said softly: "Master Dock, the person I'm talking about is the child who looks to be around ten years old. Previously, he didn't use his eyes to look at the medicinal herbs. With just a sniff of his nose, he was able to sniff out all 108 medicinal herbs. Even I suspect that he saw through our seats. "However …"    

    

"But what? "Don't keep us in suspense, tell us quickly." Seeing that the Elder Yu actually started to speak such useless words, Master Dock immediately started to urge him.    

    

"However, it's not that he mentioned 108 medicinal herbs, but rather, he mentioned 109 different medicinal herbs."    

    

"109 kinds of medicinal herbs?" Master Dock was startled when he heard it, "The child mentioned an additional medicinal ingredient? "What kind of medicinal herbs are the ones he mentioned?"    

    

"Stupid fruit." Although he was not sure what exactly this medicinal ingredient looked like, he still had some impression of its name. Thus, even though the other party had only said it once, he was still able to immediately recognize it.    

    

"To think that it would be this kind of medicinal herb!" Hearing Elder Yu's words, he frowned, and after pondering for a moment, he suddenly asked: "Among his ingredients, is there any medicinal herb called the Purple Haze Fruit?"    

    

"That's right, it's a medicinal plant with a Purple Mango Fruit." Elder Yu softly replied, his heart thumping. How did Master Dock know that there was a Purple Thread Fruit in the child's medicinal ingredients? Could it be that the child really was right?    

    

Under Elder Yu's complicated gaze, Master Dock walked straight in front of Chang Sheng, raised his hand and placed it on the pile of medicinal ingredients in front of Chang Sheng. Immediately, two identical purple walnut-sized fruits appeared in his hands.    

    

Master Dock raised his hand and caressed the two fruits for a while. Then, he placed the two fruits on his nose and smelled them, after which he placed the two fruits back down. He raised his head and looked at the child opposite him with a surprised expression. The child was as tall as a visiting table.    

    

The child was right. There were 109 kinds of medicinal herbs, not 101 kinds of medicinal herbs. The Scented Fruit was exactly the same as the Purple Mango Fruit. The degree of hardness of the scented fruit was almost the same as well.    

    

However, the tasteless precious fruit was green in color, and the Purple Mango Fruit was purple in color. This was something that could be easily discerned with the naked eye. Thus, normally, no one would make a mistake in recognizing these two medicinal herbs. One could distinguish them just by looking at their color.    

    

However, what many people did not know was that under special circumstances, the tasteless fruit would mutate, and its color would change to the same purple color as the purple fruit. Most people did not know about such a situation and did not even know how to think. That was why such a situation appeared in front of them.    

    

As for the child in front of him, he didn't even look at him.    

    

Master Dock looked at the child in surprise: "Little Friend, can you tell this old man that just by smelling the air, you were able to differentiate the medicinal herbs in front of me?"    

    

As soon as Master Dock finished speaking, everyone in and outside of the room was stunned!    

    

Even though Master Dock did not say it explicitly, his words were no different from telling everyone else that what the child said was correct. The medicinal ingredients in front of him were indeed one hundred and nine, and the person who was wrong was someone from Heavencraft Tower.    

    

During the Heavencraft Tower Assessment, could there be any errors? This was completely unheard-of!    

    

There was also this child, whom he did not even need to look at, he could smell the difference in the medicinal herbs in front of him. Just now, this new Great Master was clearly a master alchemist of Heavencraft Tower.
