After Fishing For 10 Years, I Became A Saint Without Knowing How To Raise Beasts

Chapter 412 Gambling?

The young man's name was Touan Xiaole, and he was looking at Yuchi with a kind expression.

Yuchi and Yue Hanjiang looked at each other. Then, Yuchi took the initiative to ask the young man, "I've come to this place to learn alchemy. Could Little Brother tell me some things about alchemy."

Cofuran had been busy with some things recently.

Thus, after talking briefly with Yuchi about the matters of the Alchemist Valley, she had returned to her own affairs.

Obviously, she was so busy that she did not even have the time to explain the basics to Yuchi.

Incidentally, Yuchi had also asked her what exactly she was doing. However, she did not tell Yuchi the details and only said that it would not be harmful for him.

Since that was the case, Yuchi and Hanjiang were left to their own devices to explore the Alchemist Valley. Since this young man had come along, perhaps they would be able to learn a thing or two from him.

Touan Xiaole was a little surprised.

"You'll have to go to The Alchemist Guild to learn how to refine medicine. However, if you want to learn how to refine medicine there, you'll have to prepare a lot of money. The starting price is ten million. Do you have enough with you?"

Touan Xiaole looked at Yuchi from head to toe. No matter what, he did not look like a rich man at all.

If you were not rich, it would be impossible for you to learn alchemy.

Could it be?

There was a beautiful girl next to him. One look was enough to tell him that she was extraordinary.

Was this guy perhaps a reclusive tycoon? In other words, those old men who had a lot of money but actually pretended to be poor?

He was uncertain about this.

Yuchi conveniently made up a reason, "My sister and I came from the North. We've spent all our money on the way here, and did not expect to need 10 million to learn alchemy. We really can't afford it."

When Yuchi said this, he also thought about the money he had spent in this life. It had been so many years since he had been reborn into this world. If he added up all of his expenditure, it probably would not even reach 1,000.

He felt like a penniless protagonist.

There was only a hint of slyness in Touan Xiaole's eyes.

"If you want to make money, I know a good place."

"What place?"

"Just follow me, dear customer!"

"Trust me. I can tell that you're very strong, so I definitely can't do anything to harm you."

Yuchi agreed. It was highly unlikely that this young man would be able to harm him, or even Yue Hanjiang.

Following the young man, Yuchi arrived at a certain place.

This was a place where many people from the Alchemist Valley liked to come and play. It was a place to bet on which medicinal herb bloomed first.

Medicinal herbs were the most abundant thing in the valley, and thanks to the special nature of this valley, they grew very quickly.

From a small seed of a herb to the final blooming, it took a total of 10 minutes. Therefore, this game was derived from that. Everyone could bet on different seeds, and if they guessed which one bloomed first correctly, they would get a lot of money.

"Customer, aren't you lacking money right now? You can try your luck here and see how you fare."

Yuchi did not make a move for the time being. Instead, he took his disciple and stood in the distance to watch and examine the game and how it was played.

The general gist of it was as such. There would be a total of 30 seeds in the arena, which would be placed in their respective transparent containers. Then, once these seeds were planted, the game would officially begin.

When a seed sprouted, took root, grew to a meter's height, and bloomed, the game would be declared over.

There were a number of requirements.

First of all, the height of the medicinal herb plant had to be at least one meter. If a plant bloomed, but did not reach the requisite height, it would not be counted.

Secondly, the flowers of the plant had to be more than 3 centimeters in diameter, but not more than 10 centimeters in diameter. Even if there were more than 10,000 flowers, if they did not meet this requirement, it would be useless.

Finally, when the plant bloomed, there would be a count of whether the number of flowers were odd or even. Of course, the flowers that did not meet the size criteria were ignored.

So if Yuchi wanted to participate, he would first have to choose his own seed. Then, he would have to predict whether the seed would bloom and have an odd or even number of flowers.

If the conditions were right, he would be able to win big.

After watching the first match, Yuchi still stood in the same spot and watched two more matches.

When he was in a state of deep thought, Touan Xiaole, who was beside him, looked a little anxious."Sir, do you want to play a round? The game isn't too hard and it's mostly based on luck."

"In any case, you have a free-chip on hand."

Yuchi indeed had a free chip in his hand. This free chip was something that everyone would receive once a day. One chip was equivalent to one unit of currency in this place.

Perhaps if he managed to maintain a winning streak, he would eventually be able to afford the fees required to learn alchemy.
