Chapter 21: Alchemy Manual

"Thank you for your gift, Mr. Kailandil, I must study your masterpiece seriously!"
Joan took the book in both hands and bowed deeply to the half-elf doctor again, the gratitude was beyond words.
When Joan returned home, the excitement could not be calm for a long time. Not even eating, he turned on the oil lamp and looked at the "Alchemy and Pharmacy Introductory Handbook" that Kairandil gave him. Just looking at it, there was a bark of dogs outside the window, and it was Kandy who brought Jamie back from her grandfather.
"I haven't seen your shadow all day. Where did I go to play?" Conti couldn't wait to ask Joan today where he entered.
Qiao An knew that she would have this question, write down today's brief experience in advance, and silently handed the stationery over.
Condy had already seen his quirks about whether he could speak or not, and took a look at the stationery, his eyes lit up.
"Go to the swamp to collect the leeches? This is really strange. What good is the leeches, there are people who pay for it... Well, it seems very interesting. Will you take me with me tomorrow?"
Joan shook his head firmly, and then went to the hospital to list a number of reasons for not taking Conti with him. For example, the environment near the swamp is very bad, there are too many dirty and smelly mosquitoes, and it is not suitable for the clean girl to stay for a long time. Then he needs to concentrate on the remote control of the "manager's hand" to catch the leeches, and he can not be distracted to chat with Conti, let alone She will definitely feel bored when it comes to playing games. The most important one is that Kandy is not good at "Mage's Hand" or similar spells, and can't help much, but wastes time to do business...Although Kandy does nothing serious at home, he just takes a dog every day. Go shopping in the town or go hunting in the woods, and visit the small tree essence Mila along the way, and live a happy life.
Kandy saw that he had written a piece of paper and looked very serious. He had to flatter his mouth in grievance and barely agreed to stay in the town. Later, Kandy spoke with him for a while. Basically, she talked to herself about what she did today. Joan just listened silently, sometimes tearing a piece of bread into her mouth. When he had dinner, Condy had finished speaking, yawned and went back to rest.
Joan washed his face in cold water to boost his spirits a little, and then he followed the usual habit of studying spell books. Since the three 0-ring spells recorded in the book-the hand of the mage, endoscopic surgery and frozen rays-he has already mastered, it is enough to spend an hour to review the casting gestures and spells.
Joan ended his homework tonight, and when he closed the spellbook, he still had some intentions. He is eager to learn new spells, but it is a pity that it is difficult to obtain spell resources in this town, and he can only try his luck.
Fortunately, in addition to spells, Joanne also has a brand-new knowledge for specialization. Open the "Introduction to Alchemy and Pharmacy" and continue reading from the page just folded.
After Kandy's visit to this episode, Joan's mood at the moment has calmed down, realizing that he owes a great deal to Mr. Kailandil. This is really uncomfortable for him who admires everything and does not ask for creed, but he has to accept Kailandil's kindness.
As early as this afternoon, when braving the hot sun and mosquito bites to salvage the leeches in the stinky swamp, Joan realized that he would never be willing to do this humble job all the time. Mr. Landier refined a bottle of pharmacy, and he only had to work in a neat pharmacy laboratory for two hours. The profit from selling the bottle of pharmacy far exceeded the commission paid to Joan.
Joan didn’t want to do the errands like fishing for leeches for a lifetime. He even yearned for Mr. Kaylandil’s way of working. For this reason, he could not be satisfied with earning a few hard money, even if he had been exhausted all day long. You have to fight the spirit to learn some new knowledge by yourself-only knowledge can change his destiny.
Joan poured a cup of warm water, took out the "tears of god" and put it in the cup for one minute, then took out the "tears of god", drank the magic water in one breath, and soon felt exhausted and changed again Be energetic.
Joan didn't waste his medicine, competing for reading every second, and didn't read through this manual from beginning to end until early in the morning. During the reading process, he also accumulated many questions. He recorded them neatly on the draft paper, and prepared to go to the clinic tomorrow morning to ask Dr. Kairandil for advice.
Unconsciously, chicken sounds came out of the window, dawn was coming. Joan put away the books and rinsed briefly, lying in bed to relax his tired body and mind, and almost dreamed as soon as he closed his eyes.
In the early morning of the next morning, as soon as the sky was up in the east, Bai Qiao'an followed the old habits that he had developed for many years and got up early. After having a simple breakfast, he hurried out and came to Mr. Cairandil's clinic before the small church bell sounded at six.
Neither Joan nor Kylandir was a talkative person, and they hurried away after saying good morning to each other. This is the first time Qiao An has visited a formal alchemy laboratory. The various glass instruments and ceramic crucibles filled with the experimental table dazzled him.
Dr. Kaylandil introduced him to the main instruments and herbs. Since Joanne had read through the introductory manual last night, it was somewhat basic, and had a preliminary impression of the devices and medicinal materials introduced by Kairandil. Next, he performed well as an experimental assistant, and at least Kailandil didn't make a mistake when he asked him to get a certain instrument.
Kailandil was very satisfied with Joan's performance as his assistant on the first day. With the help of this ingenious teenager, it usually takes two hours to dispense medicine. Today it takes only one and a half hours to get it done. In the following time, Kailandier listened to Joan's notes and pointed out the difficult problems encountered during the self-study last night while drinking coffee, and explained them casually.
Kailandil’s eloquence is not good, but the words are precise and concise, and it is even more rare to be patient. Always give Joan a thorough understanding before beginning the next question. Joan hasn't met a real teacher except Grandpa in these years. Kailandier's explanation made him feel the value of having a good teacher, and he was deeply grateful to Mr. Doctor.
When the church bell rang again, the Kairandil clinic should be open for business. Qiao An quit the doctor, picked up the wooden box that had already been covered with damp sawdust, walked out of the clinic, and hurried forward towards Chaoyang to start a new day of work.
At dusk, Joan returned from the swamp to the town. A total of more than 1,500 leeches were harvested today, and 16 bright Jinduga were exchanged with Mr. Kairandil to make his purse fuller.
