Mu You took out the Fool card and read the instructions on the back of the card carefully several times. After pondering for a while, he gradually came up with an idea.

He took out the pistol he picked up in Qubai Mountain yesterday, loaded the magazine, and turned on the safety.

Then he looked around, fixed the pistol on a table a few meters away, tied a wire to the trigger, and connected it to his experimental table.

After making all these preparations, Mu You stood in front of the table, with the muzzle of the gun facing his head, pocket watch in his left hand, and holding the thread with his right hand. After exhaling, he exerted force with his right hand.

"Bang!"

After a long pull, the trigger was pulled, and a bullet was fired from the muzzle of the gun, heading straight for his head.

And at the moment when the bullet was fired, the transparent spherical barrier was once again enveloped around Mu You. Similar to the scene in the forest that day, everything outside the barrier became extremely slow, including the bullet.

This bullet, with a firing speed of nearly 300 meters per second, is decelerated by 360 times, reaching a speed that any normal person can easily capture with the naked eye.

The table where the pistol was fixed was about three meters away from Mu You, and the bullet flew from his perspective for nearly four seconds before it could enter the range of the barrier.

"Sure enough...but the bullets still fly too fast..."

Mu You shook his head and pressed his pocket watch.

Four seconds is too late for him to do anything, because it takes at least 10 minutes to prepare a potion. When converted to the time outside the barrier, it is 1.66 seconds. In other words, the flight time of the bullet must exceed 1.66 seconds.

Based on the average bullet speed of 300 meters per second, he needs to be more than 500 meters away from the pistol!

500 meters... Not to mention where he would find such a large venue, more importantly, ordinary firearms cannot reach a range of 500 meters.

"In principle it works, but the method needs to be improved..."

Mu You rubbed his chin and pondered for a while, then went to the warehouse upstairs to find some copper wire and iron sheets, as well as a remote-control toy that was scrapped when he was a child.

I dismantled the toy, took out the various parts and circuit boards inside, and used a soldering iron and copper wire to make a simple delayed trigger.

This busy work actually took him more than three hours, which made Mu You, a graduate of the Department of Electrical Engineering, quite emotional. After many years of graduation, his hands-on ability has indeed plummeted.

After coming back to his senses, Mu You fixed the trigger on the pistol wrench.

Since the bullet is fired too fast, don't let it actually fire, just create an adventurous atmosphere.

Therefore, he adjusted the delay trigger time to 7 seconds. After he pressed the remote control switch, the other side had to wait 7 seconds before firing, which gave him two seconds of adjustment time.

Of course, Mu You is actually not sure whether this idea is actually feasible, so he will give it a try first.

Standing under the gun again, Mu You held the pocket watch tightly with his left hand and pressed the remote control with his right hand.

As a result, half a second passed and there was no movement around me.

Mu You wasn't too surprised by this, after all, he couldn't feel any tension in his heart now.

After thinking for a moment, he suddenly turned his back to the gun, and silently recited in his mind, 'I will not move a step for the next ten seconds.'

This sentence is not just a simple idea, but an extremely serious plan.

He kept hinting to himself that even if death was imminent, he would definitely carry out this order resolutely.

And the moment this thought emerged, Mu You felt his body become lighter, and a familiar sense of security enveloped him.

When I opened my eyes, I saw that the transparent mask had appeared in front of me again.

Mu You breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that he had guessed correctly. The triggering of the Fool's Barrier was only partly caused by the environment. What was more important was the psychological factor. As long as he could truly believe that he was in crisis, he could trigger the barrier.

The protection of the world.

After confirming that the Fool's Barrier can be triggered, the next thing will be much easier to handle.

Mu You went back in time, set up a still in front of him, and made half a bottle of distilled water, which was also one of the ingredients described in the recipe scroll.

Then use a mortar to grind all kinds of dried herbs into powder and set them aside for later use.

After making these preparations, Mu You placed the pocket watch outside the boundary of the barrier, within reach of the hand.

Then the alcohol lamp was lit and the crucible was set up.

In addition to the materials, the most important aspect of potion refining is the heat. He specially bought the alcohol lamp with a knob that can adjust the size of the flame, in order to cooperate with the detailed heat control on the scroll.

"First is the herbal essence..."

Muyou took out a piece of herbal essence that he had taken out of the game before. The so-called herbal essence was actually a piece of light green soft waxy paste, a bit like jelly. Muyou threw the whole piece into the crucible and watched it

Melt slowly under the flame.

"Any kind of spiritual grass..."

Mu You randomly grabbed a piece of spirea from among the dozens of spiritual herbs he obtained today and threw it into the crucible.

"Then there is a handful of ordinary medicinal powder as excipients..."

Mu You took a small handful of the freshly ground ginseng powder beside him and put it in. In fact, he had no idea how much he needed to add, but he could try it indefinitely, and he could always try it out with a little experimentation.

"Well, there is also distilled pure water...appropriate amount..."

Mu You felt his head hurt when he looked at the content described on the scroll. He hated terms like 'a handful', 'a spoonful', and 'appropriate amount'. How big is the spoon? How big is the hand? Do you dare to say it clearly?<

/p>

Shaking his head, he set aside the test tube storing distilled water and poured half of the tube into it, just enough to cover the three materials. Then he picked up the glass rod and started stirring.

At this time, under the heating of the flame, the entire crucible began to bubble, and a strong bitter medicinal smell emanated from it, quickly covering the entire basement.

Mu You had no time to pay attention to the taste. After all the ingredients were added, the next step was the most important cooking process.

According to what was said on the parchment roll, Mu You carefully stirred and adjusted the size of the flame at any time.

I watched the medicine in the crucible change from yellow to red, then to green, and finally began to turn faintly black...

Mu You already vaguely felt that something was wrong, because according to the description of the formula, the final plaster should be bright green, and the lighter the color, the better. Why did it turn black?

Sure enough, three minutes later, the entire crucible exploded with a 'pop' sound.

The pot didn't explode, but the black hot sticky substance inside exploded cleanly and splashed everywhere.

Mu You wiped off the black paste on his face depressedly.

Obviously, the first potion preparation in life ended in failure.

"Could it be that the auxiliary medicine is useless?" Mu You thought.

It is mentioned in the formula that the properties of the auxiliary drugs should be matched with the properties of the main drug as much as possible. So, maybe the ginseng powder does not meet the requirements? Then try something else.

Mu You was not discouraged, and immediately went back in time, and then started his second attempt.

"Pa!"

As a result, it exploded faster this time than last time.

"Come again!"

The third time...

"Backtrack!"

The fourth time...

……

After going back more than a hundred times, Mu You tried various combinations of medicinal materials, and finally found that among all the traditional Chinese medicines, the medicinal properties of 'Angelica' and Spiraea were the best match. Although the result still failed,

When you use 'Angelica Sinensis' several times, the cooking progress can be greatly improved.

Mu You feels that the material selection should be correct, and the rest should be a matter of technique.

Then test and then explode!

In trial after trial, Muyou continued to fine-tune various cooking details.

After 421 consecutive failures, the 422nd attempt was finally made! He completed all the steps perfectly, the crucible did not explode again, and the paste inside finally took shape for the first time!
Chapter completed!
