The whole place was completely silent and you could hear a pin drop.

Especially the boy who mocked Mason Thornton with the illustration, his smile was frozen in the air awkwardly, and his face was burning as if someone had slapped him several times.

Fortunately, Mason Thornton didn't pay attention to him. He held up the Dragon-Toothed Herb and explained calmly: "The students all thought it was a Snake-Tailed Herb, which is actually not wrong. However, the Snake-Tailed Herb that has been heated for more than ten years can be considered a low-level spiritual grass, with the characteristics of sunflower. Water is negative and can neutralize many strong medicinal materials. It is often used in the preparation of low-level elixirs. Therefore, alchemists like to distinguish it from Snake-Tailed Herb and call it Dragon-Toothed Herb. As for how to identify it, it is very simple. "

Mason Thornton gently stroked the Dragon-Toothed Herb in his hand, and the stems and leaves were folded up. They were slightly phosphorescent under the golden sunlight in the morning, and they really looked like a long blue tooth.

He shook his hand gently and said: "Shake it gently. If its stems and leaves loosen and become weak, it proves that the fire is not enough and the snake's tail cannot become a dragon's tooth."

After listening to Mason Thornton simple and clear explanation, the students all nodded in understanding and looked at Xena Lowe with a look for confirmation.

Xena Lowe was a little surprised. It turned out that there is such a simple way to identify Dragon-Toothed Herb and Snake-Tailed Herb. She also nodded in an educated manner, knowing that to identify the age of the two medicines, she also needed to use a medicine needle to test their properties.

But when she saw the eyes of the students asking her for confirmation, she quickly realized something was wrong. She clearly wanted to show off to this bastard, so why did she nod along and "be taught"?

Besides, what does he mean by "Kui Shui Yin"? Is it really a neutralization of strong medicinal materials?

She only knew that when refining vitality elixir, energy pill, and meridian-clearing elixir, a small amount of Dragon-Toothed Herb needed to be added. As for why, that was what the prescriptions said, and she had never thought about it. ah.

"Teacher, what does Kwai Shui Negative mean?" A sensitive and studious student asked on the spot.

"this……"

Xena Lowe was stunned on the spot.

But under the curious eyes of her classmates, she had to answer. Otherwise, even Mason Thornton knew the alchemy knowledge, but she, as a teacher, didn't know it. Wouldn't it be a shame?

Suddenly, she caught a glimpse of Mason Thornton slightly raised smile, which seemed to be sarcastic, and she suddenly became angry.

Damn bastard!

"Mason Thornton, please explain to your classmates what Kwai Shui Yin is!"Xena Lowe shouted angrily, using her anger to cover up her guilt of not being able to answer the question, and at the same time she was able to skillfully kick the question to Mason Thornton to answer.

"Teacher, is this the second question?"Mason Thornton asked with a half-smile.

"Why, I happened to see some side knowledge in some alchemy book and wanted to show it off?"Xena Lowe sneered.

That's right! That's right!

There is a vast amount of alchemy knowledge, and it is normal for her to not understand some of the cold knowledge. What is there to feel guilty about?

Maybe this "Sunflower Water Yin" is a theory formulated by an unknown alchemist. It is not recognized by the alchemy world, and happens to be regarded as truth by a layman like Mason Thornton who has no discerning vision.

That's right! This is the possibility!

Thinking of this, Xena Lowe felt that her momentum was gradually returning.

"Partial knowledge?"

It seems that the alchemy of Skyforge is really in decline. As a one-star alchemist, this girl doesn't even know the most basic knowledge of alchemy.

Mason Thornton did not expose Xena Lowe's ignorance, and explained with a smile: "The heaven and earth are divided into yin and yang, and the five elements evolve. All things in the heaven and earth are hidden in the five elements, and they complement each other. The same is true for alchemy. Medicinal materials are divided into yin and yang and transform into the five elements. When the medicinal properties are mutually reinforcing, they will merge. In the Yin and Yang Five Elements, the attributes of the five elements are subdivided by the heavenly stems, and the five elements are defined by the earthly branches. Sunflower water is yin, which means that this Dragon-Toothed Herb contains a large number of "Kui" defined by the heavenly stems. '-like water-attribute medicinal gas."

Mason Thornton explained the essence of alchemy in a simple and easy-to-understand manner.

The students in the audience seemed to understand.

"Teacher, is this like it?"

"this……"

Xena Lowe found this theory refreshing.

She really wanted to say that Mason Thornton was talking nonsense, but what this bastard said about the yin and yang, the five elements, the heavenly stems and the earthly branches, and so on, seemed to make sense at first glance.

"Which book did you read these theories from?"Xena Lowe ignored the students' questions and asked Mason Thornton instead.

"Which book? I forgot. But these are the most basic knowledge of alchemy. It can be recorded in any alchemy book."Mason Thornton said casually.

"forget?"

Xena Lowe face darkened!

Common sense, your sister!

Every alchemy book will record your sister!

She is a dignified one-star alchemist and has never heard of this. Her grandfather is one of the three four-star alchemists in the Caeloria. There are many precious alchemy scriptures in his study, and he has never seen this theory.

You didn't say it on purpose, right?

Deliberately picking up these alchemy theories that she had never heard of from nowhere, it made her embarrassed in front of her students, and she couldn't stand down in front of them, right?

Hello Mason Thornton!

Mason Thornton glanced at Xena Lowe. This girl had a rosy face and gritted her teeth. However, when the beauty was angry, she had a different style.

In fact, what he said was the truth. The principle of alchemy way, five elements, heavenly stems and earthly branches in alchemy is really just common sense in the grand world.

But common sense is common sense, and being able to do it is one thing.

Even if he is the Invincible Majesty, he cannot fully grasp the pharmacology of yin, yang, five elements, heavenly stems and earthly branches of any medicinal material.

"Ha, teacher, it doesn't matter if you don't understand this. In fact, you have already wood method alchemy according to the principle of non-phase creation and restraint."

Mason Thornton quickly explained, trying to lighten the atmosphere.

This girl doesn't know how to pretend to understand, and is already on the verge of going berserk.

"Who says I can't understand?"Xena Lowe phoenix eyes were filled with murderous intent, and the jade hands hidden in her sleeves were already tightly clenched.

"Ah, you understand. You are a teacher, so of course you understand."Mason Thornton didn't care about this girl.

"Hmph!"Xena Lowe snorted softly, feeling that her dignity had been severely trampled on by this bastard.

"Teacher, what is wood method alchemy?"

There is also a classmate who is sensitive and studious and asks which pot is not open.

Xena Lowe is already thinking about killing people. She usually asks you to ask questions in class, but why aren't you so enthusiastic?

The male student who asked the question felt Ms. Lowe's murderous aura coming down on him, and he was so frightened that he quickly clamped his balls with his legs. I was panicking and thought to myself: I just took a peek at Ms. Lowe's butt. Could it be that... I was discovered? It’s over, it’s over!

The classroom fell silent under Xena Lowe murderous gaze.

But everyone thought it was Ms. Lowe problem that couldn't trouble Mason Thornton, the bastard, and he was getting more and more angry.

"You should explain to this classmate what wood method alchemy is, and how can you tell that I used wood method alchemy?"

Xena Lowe looked at Mason Thornton with hatred, but she did not notice that in addition to hatred, her mood at this time was also filled with a desire for knowledge. Because she also wanted to hear what wood method alchemy was.

Mason Thornton did not make trouble, picked up another medicinal plant in his hand, and continued to explain: "This Lion-Tailed Herb contains rich sunflower energy, and it also belongs to the attributes of the heavenly stem. According to the five elements, water can produce wood, so Dragon-Toothed Herb and Lion-Tailed Herb are put together, the medicinal qi they emit blends together, and a medicinal reaction occurs, also known as the wood method effect. This is the simplest wood method alchemy."

"Is this wood method alchemy? Teacher, is this what it is?"

Mason Thornton tried to explain it as simply and straightforwardly as possible, but wood method alchemy was still a very subversive theory for students who had never been exposed to it. Putting two herbs together can make an elixir. Who are you kidding? Many students on the spot frowned and expressed doubts.

Even Xena Lowe, a one-star alchemist, did not believe this ridiculous wood method alchemy theory and coldly questioned: "Mason Thornton, do you think everyone is a fool? Where is the elixir? If you don't tell me, Ersan, just because you are ignorant of the teacher and roaring in class, let’s see how I deal with you!”

Xena Lowe said bitterly. This bastard kept talking about alchemy knowledge that she didn't understand, which made her very frustrated. The classmates asked her for confirmation, but she couldn't answer. Not only did she lose face, it seemed that every time she couldn't answer, her self-esteem was eroded. It was easy to be trampled on by that bastard Mason Thornton.

Even Ms. Lowe questioned Mason Thornton, and the students in the audience questioned him loudly and unceremoniously.

"Yes! Mason Thornton, where is the elixir?"

"Two medicinal herbs put together can make an alchemy, so who can't? A pig can become an alchemist!"

Mason Thornton still didn't take it seriously. He touched his belly gently with his hand and said with a smile, "The pill is actually in my belly."

As soon as he said this, the whole classroom burst into laughter again.

"Is the elixir in your belly? Mason Thornton, I think your boast is getting bigger and bigger."

"When did you take the elixir? You are still wood method alchemy. You are so serious about it that you almost deceived me!"

"Ms. Lowe, this person is yelling in class and has no teacher. You have to punish him severely."

The one who laughed the loudest was the boy sitting in the front row who had just pointed out the Snake-Tailed Herb to Mason Thornton.

However, in the noisy classroom, only one person did not smile, and that was Xena Lowe.

Not only did she not smile, but her expression was very serious.

Because she thought of the elixir recipe, she vaguely felt that what Mason Thornton said might be true.

She originally wanted to teach Mason Thornton a lesson, so the Dragon-Toothed Herb and Lion-Tailed Herb she took out for assessment were themselves a trap.

On these two herbs, she applied the flower liquid of the Earth Conch Flower. Putting the three together, it will produce a magical effect. If a boy inhales a large amount, it can have the effect of unblocking the menstrual flow and activating the meridians, but there are One side effect is "ball pain" for a period of time.

This is exactly how she punishes students who disrespect her in class.

As for this method, she saw it from the ancient elixir prescriptions collected by her grandfather. She remembered that the last part of the elixir prescription said this: When the medicinal gas enters the body, the elixir is formed in the belly!

But at this moment, Mason Thornton said that the pill was in his stomach. Isn't it consistent with what Dan Fang said?

Xena Lowe looked at Mason Thornton Mingyang in shock. Is this a coincidence, or has he seen through everything already?

Could this be wood method alchemy?

"Quiet, everyone!"

Xena Lowe shouted angrily in a cold voice, then stared at Mason Thornton with an unprecedented serious look, and said word by word: "Explain to me why the pill is in your stomach!"
