Start By Creating Your Own Water Bear Gu Chapter 1

Chapter 1 Creating your own Gu recipe at the beginning

  In the endless darkness, Long Xuan woke up from his dream.

 “Where is this?”

 He looked around confusedly, his brows furrowed.

What appeared in sight was a messy bedroom, with a musty smell in the air.

When he glanced at a bronze mirror on the table, a handsome boy of fifteen or sixteen years old appeared in his sight.

 He soon realized that he had traveled through time, and then a large number of unfamiliar memories flooded into his mind, further confirming his suspicions.

 This is a strange world similar to the world of cultivating immortals, with pills, weapons, arrays, talismans, beasts, insects, swords, puppets...

And the young man is a Gu cultivator who practices insect control, and lives in an area full of Gu cultivators. People in this area obtain powerful power by raising and refining gu.

 The so-called Gu is to put different types of spiritual insects in a vessel to make them kill each other.

 Given time, there is a chance that a new, more powerful insect species will be born.

　　The new insect species born in this way are called Gu insects. Gu insects cannot reproduce and can only be obtained by refining Gu.

 Depending on the type and quantity of spiritual insects in the vessel, there are countless combinations of spiritual insects.

 Different combination methods will give birth to different Gu insects, with different shapes, strong and weak, and various abilities.

  But they can be roughly divided into two categories. One type is larger and is used for external combat, which is called external gu.

One kind is smaller and can parasitize in the body of the Gu cultivator. It grows with the nutrients of the Gu cultivator's body and feeds the Gu cultivator various magical abilities, giving the Gu cultivator the ability to spit fire and call thunder. This type of Gu insect is called internal Gu. .

 Some internal poisons are harmful to the cultivation of poisons, so they can be thrown into the enemy's food. Due to their small size, they are difficult to detect and impossible to guard against. Those who are infected with the poison often die after being eaten by the poison in their internal organs.

 It is worth mentioning that many combination methods cannot produce Gu, and there are even fewer combination methods that can produce powerful Gu seeds.

The Gu cultivator recorded on paper the combinations that can produce the Gu, and it became a Gu recipe that was passed down forever.

　　Gu prescription is the cornerstone of a family's long-lasting prosperity and the most important thing for a family.

 Every family regards it as a treasure and keeps it secret.

 Therefore, it is very difficult for ordinary people to learn Gu prescription.

 The original owner was just an ordinary person from a poor family. He earned a meager income as a handyman in a medicine garden and had no chance to learn Gu prescriptions.

The original owner is also named Long Xuan. He has a humble status. Both his parents died when he was young. He is actually born with a gold finger, which is a standard accessory for the protagonist.

 It's just that in the original owner's opinion, this golden finger is useless and has no use, so the protagonist has been in poverty and has not become stronger because of the golden finger.

 Seeing this part of the memory, Long Xuan couldn't help but frown.

 Are there any other golden fingers that can be used? It was simply unheard of. This was the first time he had heard of it after reading countless novels.

This protagonist's golden finger is either a system, or simply the ability to see the growth of all things.

 This is the only function. It can only be seen and cannot be changed. It has no use other than visually seeing a number.

At first glance, it is really useless. Spirit beasts and insects can judge their growth by their size, and human elixirs also have many ways to identify the year. There is really no need for him to identify them.

Long Xuan looked thoughtful. According to the description in his memory, these are a pair of eyes that can see the growth of all things. This all things refers to all things in the world, not limited to living creatures.

  It seems that all living and dead creatures that can pronounce nouns can see their growth.

However, growth rate is not vivid when used on dead objects. Long Xuan prefers to use a modern term, which is collectively called progress, which is more vivid.

 An ability that can see the progress of all things seems useless to the original owner, but Long Xuan doesn't think so. In his opinion, this ability still has a lot of room for development.

There is no trash golden finger, only a trash host. It all depends on how strong the host's imagination is.

The most indispensable thing for a time traveler is imagination, and soon many magical ideas appeared in his mind.

He quickly got out of bed and walked to the table, took out a pen and paper from the drawer, and quickly wrote the two characters Gu Fang on the paper, and then wrote a material called ghost spider underneath.

Things did not go as he expected. The progress immediately appeared on the paper, but the progress changed from the original representation of 120% to the representation of numbers in the previous life. Obviously, the expression of Golden Finger is mainly based on the host's cognition.

 At this time, a series of 1.5% numbers appeared in his sight.

Long Xuan was thoughtful. According to his guess, the residual party was considered a kind of thing, so he could naturally see the progress.

 The progress of the Gu prescription obviously represents the degree of incompleteness of the Gu prescription.

 The more complete the Gu recipe is, the higher the progress will be, and the more incomplete the Gu recipe will be, the lower the progress will be.

 However, a Gu recipe that is incomplete with only 1% left is also called a residual recipe, and a Gu recipe that is incomplete with only one ingredient left is theoretically called a residual recipe.

So it's simple. It's not difficult to forge a residual recipe with only one ingredient left.

 He just needs to randomly pick out a residual method where he can see the progress, and then continue to write down the material he thinks is right.

 If the progress disappears, it means you made a mistake, erase it and change to another material.

If the progress goes up, it means you got it right and you can continue to get it down.

 When he gets 100%, it means he has successfully deceived a kind of poison.

He just deliberately wrote down the insect species from his previous life on paper, but he could also see the progress. This shows that Goldfinger's criteria for judging the residual party include theoretical existence.

  In other words, he can use this golden finger to create his own Gu recipe and create new Gu species that have not yet appeared in this world.

 There is no cost of trial and error. He only relies on pen and paper to study the poison. For him, creating his own poison is just a matter of how long it takes. He has a strong soul and strong understanding in his two lives. In addition, as an entomologist in his previous life, he prides himself on being able to use his knowledge and imagination in his previous life to develop incredible poison recipes that will make him shine in this world.

Long Xuan was extremely excited at this time and full of expectations for the future. After studying his golden finger for a while, he finally opened the door and walked towards the medicine garden that the original owner was responsible for.

  Refining Gu requires a large amount of start-up capital, and this medicine garden may be his first pot of gold.

Yaoyuan is a Gu cultivator with the surname Long, and outsiders call him Mr. Long.

Mr. Long comes from a Gu cultivator family called the Long family. He was ordered to station in this village called Dashi Village to defend the village from the invasion of spiritual beasts and the plundering of the Demon cultivators.

 What Dashi Village needs to pay is more than half of the food, including meat and eggs.

There are countless other villages controlled by the Long family.

 In this world, it is impossible for Gu cultivators to farm. This group will only continue to practice and not engage in production. They are also particularly good at eating. Their food sources can only come from large and small mortal villages.

The Gu Xiu family provides shelter for the mortal village, and the mortals provide food for the Gu Xiu family.

The more powerful Gu Xiu families control more mortal villages, and wars between Gu Xiu families also include the plunder of mortal villages.

 Dashi Village is a large village with a population of 3,000. Its current scale is due to the nearby market, the only market in the far west.

Because it is the closest to the Long family, it has become one of the sheltered villages.

The Long family is one of the seven most powerful Gu cultivator families in the Far West. No one dares to provoke them, so there has never been a robbery incident in Dashi Village.

 Such a safe environment is what Long Xuan is satisfied with.

 Long Lao's medicine garden covers a large area and grows more than a hundred kinds of elixirs.

 The levels of elixirs can be divided into grades one to ten from low to high. After that, there are earth grade and heaven grade that only exist in legends.

Although Longlao Medicine Garden is large, it only grows the lowest-grade elixirs among the elixirs, and all types are flower elixirs. The medicine garden is filled with all kinds of rich floral fragrances, which are refreshing.

Long Xuan followed the instructions in his memory and walked into the medicine garden carrying a bucket of green liquid. The green liquid was fertilizer.

The fertilizer of the elixir is not smelly stool, but a green liquid that can only be purchased at the Chamber of Commerce. Long Xuan prefers to call it ripening liquid.

 Applying ripening liquid to the elixir can shorten the growth period of the elixir by half.

Long Xuan was very interested in this ripening liquid. He leaned forward and sniffed it again and again, as if he wanted to find out what the ingredients were.

Ordinary ripening liquid can produce such a heaven-defying effect. Wouldn't an advanced ripening liquid be able to shorten the maturity period of an elixir from a thousand years to a hundred years?

He firmly believed that as long as he knew the formula of this barrel of ripening liquid and by analogy, he could definitely use his golden fingers to research the formula of advanced ripening liquid.

“It's a pity, it would be nice if there was a microscope.” Long Xuan shook his head and sighed.

He doesn't know how to make a microscope. If he wants to obtain similar abilities, he can only obtain them by creating his own poison recipe. In this world where everyone can play poison, he also feels that it is necessary to obtain the poison with this ability. The insect was researched.

Long Xuan studied for a while, but found out that the progress shown on the ripening liquid may mean that there will be no more harvest after the shelf life, so he gave up the research and planned to wait until the microscopic Gu was made.

Long Xuan calmed down and poured a spoonful of ripening liquid on a plant called Moonlight Flower. The growth rate immediately changed from 17.1% to 17.2%.

Long Xuan took one look and continued to pour the second spoonful, and the progress quickly increased from the original 17.2% to 17.3%.

 When he continued to pour the third spoonful, the progress remained unchanged.

Long Xuan was thoughtful and thought of the second function of the golden finger. In order to verify his guess, he continued to pour three spoons of ripening liquid on another type of elixir. This time, the progress appeared three times. Variety.

 He tried watering the fourth spoonful before the progress stopped rising.

 “Really?”

Long Xuan showed excitement.

According to Mr. Long's instructions, he needs to water it every seven days, three spoonfuls of each elixir.

 But now it seems that the dosage is not precise enough, and perhaps the watering time interval is not precise enough either.

 The types of elixirs are different, and the dosage of ripening liquid will naturally be different.

 Some elixirs may require three spoonfuls to be absorbed well, and some elixirs may require one spoonful, but too much may not be sufficient.

There will naturally be large differences in watering time. Some need to be watered every seven days, while others may need to be watered every five days.

 Merchants can only estimate approximate usage, and waste is inevitable. They may even exaggerate usage in order to make more money.

Long Xuan can teach students according to their aptitude. He is extremely precise in the dosage of each elixir and can also achieve seamless connection in the time of fertilization.

what does that mean? This means that he can ink a portion of the ripening liquid without affecting production.

 It also means that under his extreme cultivation, the elixir will mature much faster than expected, and the output will naturally exceed before within a certain period of time.

 According to the memory of the original owner, Mr. Long used the elixirs in the medicine garden to pay his salary. He only had to deliver the specified number of elixirs on time every period, and the excess output would be used as his salary.

The harder the original owner works, the more he earns. If the output cannot reach the required amount due to laziness, he will have to pay out of his own pocket.

But Mr. Long only looked at the results and not the process. No matter what the original owner did in the medicine garden, he never inspected the medicine garden once and stayed in seclusion all year round.

In this way, isn't this the first pot of gold already available?

Long Xuan smiled at the corner of his mouth. The golden finger was indeed useless. Not only was this golden finger not useless, it was actually a bit contrary to nature.

   Goldfinger is not a system, it is a bug's ability.
