Chapter 50: The Old Stick
For the next period of time, Han Ye stayed in school honestly, while attending classes and cultivating, he didn't go out to provoke right and wrong, and even the matter of alchemy was temporarily put aside.
First, because the counselor made a special trip to talk to him, and hinted to him in a kind and kind tone that if he continued to be absent from school like this, he would not be able to count on his graduation certificate in the future.
The second reason is that although the outside world seems to be calm, the actual undercurrent is surging and agitating.
If he wants to show any abnormality at this time, it is estimated that he will immediately become the focus of attention, and it is better to be more low-key.
As for the previous plan to sell the ancient martial arts cheats and turn into a serf and become a local tyrant, don't think about it for the time being.
During the period of lying in the school nest, Han Ye studied the "Nine Grades of Immortal Elixir Jue" again.
The ancient elixir recorded in the "Nine Grades of Immortal Elixir" is indeed extremely wonderful and powerful, but the heavenly and earthly treasures that are needed are also extremely precious and difficult to find.
In ancient times, these materials were very rare, and in today's world, they are even more extinct.
The only way is to substitute with similar Chinese herbs.
Although the effect of the medicine cannot be compared with the ancient elixir, at least the possibility of success is greater, and the body of ordinary people can withstand it, which can be regarded as a workaround.
After nearly a month, the outside world's attention to the shooting gradually weakened, and the search for the wooden box in black and white was also slightly relaxed.
Only then did Han Ye take action, first in the antique street, bought a small craft alchemy furnace, and moved to the house he rented a month ago.
Then I went to the Dongcheng Chinese herbal medicine market, and almost spent all the living expenses of this semester, so I barely prepared the medicinal materials needed for an elixir and prepared to open the furnace for alchemy.
The ancient elixir that Han Ye was preparing to refine was called "Three-Yuan Compound Bone Pill".
Although it was the lowest grade in the Nine Rank Immortal Elixir, it was also the only Ancient Immortal Pill that he was currently able to gather the refining materials he needed.
This elixir is mainly used to repair wounds suffered by bones.
No matter how long the bone has been traumatized, no matter how serious the injury is, even if the bones of the whole body are shattered into powder, a pill will go down, and most of the wounds will be healed, and if you take it for a long time, you can completely recover to its original state.
For those ancient gods and demons who use their physical bodies as immortal treasures and cultivate their physical bodies to be powerful and indestructible,
The Three-Yuan Compound Bone Pill is simply a life-saving elixir!
If you can have a three-element compound bone pill, then your combat power has risen by more than one level, which is comparable to Xiao Qiang, who can't be killed.
Therefore, although the grade of the Three-Yuan Compound Bone Pill is not high, many ancient gods and demons who cultivate the physical body are eager to take it and regard it as a treasure.
Han Ye inherited the cipher text of the Kua'e Divine Clan, and currently he is also mainly refining the body, and the importance of this elixir to him is naturally self-evident.
I thought that with the knowledge and experience of the Emperor Nine Peaks Immortal Venerable, it should not be difficult to refine a furnace of spirit pills.
It's just that the ideal is very plump, and the reality is very backbone.
He exhausted his efforts to refine the whole morning, and the first furnace of pills at the beginning was wasted, and he didn't even succeed.
Looking at the slag of a furnace, Han Ye felt a pain in his heart.
The price of these medicinal materials is not cheap, and the materials purchased for one semester's living expenses are only enough to refine two furnaces, but half of them are gone!
It's not Dan that's wasted, it's money!
If he wastes another furnace, then his living expenses this semester will be completely beaten into egg soup.
Han Ye deeply realized that alchemy is a game that burns more money, and without strong capital, he doesn't even have the qualifications to fail, let alone go further on the Dan Dao.
Nima, if this three-element compound bone pill is refined, Lao Tzu must sell it for a good price, otherwise he will die at a loss.
Han Ye gritted his teeth and thought, racking his brains to think hard, what went wrong.
He disassembled the alchemy steps one by one, thought about it several times, and finally believed that the key to failure was probably something wrong with the alchemy fire.
According to the record of the "Nine Rank Immortal Elixir", refining the ancient elixir requires the use of its own immortal fire divine flame.
Even if it is an ordinary elixir in the cultivation realm, it has to be refined by an alchemy master using the Samadhi True Fire, or with the help of the fire of heaven and earth.
Han Ye's current strength naturally couldn't use True Fire Alchemy, so he changed around and used solid alcohol.
However, judging from the current situation, this path seems to be impassable, and if you want to improve the success rate of alchemy, you must get the fire of heaven and earth.
So, the problem arises.
The fire of heaven and earth is very rare, and even if it exists, it has long been occupied, where did he get it?
Han Ye thought about it, but he didn't find a solution, he only felt depressed, so he simply walked out of the room and went to the corridor to breathe.
As soon as he left the room, an old man in his sixties walked up the stairs.
The old man twisted a small horse in his left hand and a small basket in his right hand.
His hair is a little gray, his face is clear, and he has three long beards under his chin, which at first glance looks like a fairy wind and bones.
It's just that his face at this time is gloomy, as if he has just been reincarnated a hundred times, and it seems to be a little unworthy of his floating temperament.
Han Ye felt that this old man was a little familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere, and then looked at the items in his basket, which were all I Ching bamboo sticks and other things, and immediately understood that this old man should be a fortune teller on the east wall of the school.
Nanling University is lined up along the eastern wall, and there are many fortune-telling stalls, mainly for Nanling students.
Students from several other universities in the vicinity, especially the graduating senior girls, also like to go over to count a hexagram, ask about love, seek a career, or ask for a make-up exam to pass and so on.
Although the fees for these stalls are not high, business is booming.
This old man looks so familiar, he must have occupied a good position, maybe he even wanted to shout that he had calculated a hexagram.
The old man came upstairs and was about to take out the key to open the door, when he saw Han Ye standing in the corridor, he was slightly stunned, and then greeted with a smile: "You are a new neighbor? ”
"Yes, it's official today. Han Ye nodded and asked with a smile: "It's only noon, it's just when business is booming, why do you always close the stall?"
The old man complained with some frustration: "Isn't that the city management coming, saying that we occupy the road to operate, and come over twice in three days to drive people away, and let people not do business properly." ”
Speaking of this, he looked at Han Ye twice, and suddenly his eyes lit up:
"Hey, this classmate, I see that your eyebrows are dark, your eyes are blank, and it seems that bad luck is coming, or I'll calculate it for you?"
Han Ye looked at the old god stick and said with a smile: "You want to earn back the lunch money from me, right?"
"Look at what you said, everyone is a neighbor, and talking about money hurts feelings, just a favor. The old god stick had a righteous face.
Han Ye was depressed in his heart, and it was quite interesting to see this old god pretending to be a ghost and being deceived, so he smiled and said, "Since that's the case, that's okay, you can calculate it for me." ”
The old god stick pretended to look at Han Ye for a while, then closed his eyes, pinched his fingers, and said something in his mouth.
After a while, he said slowly: "You were originally a lucky person, but unfortunately not long after entering the university, you ran into an evil spirit, which led to disasters and diseases, do you think what I said is right?"
The old god stick said this ambiguously, and if he changed someone else, he might be bluffed, but Han Ye had dealt with the ancient gods and demons, so how could he be deceived by him?
At his temperament and age, he looks like a college student, and as for the so-called calamities and diseases, it is because the smell of alchemy can be smelled on the entire floor.
Han Ye was amused, but he didn't expose it, and continued to ask, "Then what should I do?"
The old god groaned slightly, and then said: "I can destroy this evil for you, but in this way, I will spend a lot of effort, and I am afraid that I will not be able to tell fortunes for others for a few days."
However, since everyone is a neighbor, I can't die without help, so let's give you a hundred yuan, which means, I will help you eliminate disasters and reduce misfortunes, be strong and healthy, and soon the illness will be gone. ”
After speaking, his eyes were half-open and half-closed, looking like a master, and he looked straight at Han Ye to take the bait.
Han Ye couldn't help but smile: "Destroy the evil or something, then there is no need, if you can answer me a question, I am willing to give this hundred yuan." ”
"Oh, what's the question?"
"Have you ever heard of the Fire of Heaven and Earth?"
The old god stick opened his eyes, looked at him with some surprise, and said, "I can't see that you are young, and the questions you raised are very deep." Thankfully, you met me, and most people really can't give you an answer.
However, this is about the heavenly machine, the so-called heavenly machine cannot be leaked, there is no three or five hundred yuan, I will not reveal the heavenly machine to you. ”
"Three or five hundred, this isn't a fortune telling, it's a robbery, right?" Han Ye bargained, "Who knows if what you said is true or false." Just a hundred, or pull it down. What kind of natural opportunities you have, just keep it by yourself, and I won't listen to it. ”
"Okay, okay, a hundred is a hundred. The old god quickly agreed, something is better than nothing, and the fat in his hand can't just fly.
The so-called fire of heaven and earth actually refers to the spiritual fire raised by nature and earth, the temperature is extremely high, and it can burn everything.
It is said that in ancient times, many alchemists kept the place of alchemy on the fire veins of heaven and earth, and through various magical powers, with the help of the fire of heaven and earth, they refined the elixir treasure medicine.
However, there are also some people who are masters of the Tao and can capture and seal the spiritual fire between heaven and earth so that they can be used at any time.
Of course, this is all just legend. Even I, when I was a child, heard my master mention it once by chance, and it was hard to determine whether it existed or not. ”
Han Ye was actually very bored, and asked casually, but he didn't expect this old god stick to really say something.
Listening to the words of the old god stick, his heart moved, and he somehow remembered the wooden box that he had snatched from the white wolf.
There was a black orb in the wooden box, and he still didn't understand what it was for.
However, when he first studied the sphere, he seemed to feel that the dark red light in the depths of the sphere hid an extraordinary energy.
Could it be that the fire of heaven and earth is sealed there?
Han Ye thought about it and felt that he needed to study it again, so he took out a hundred yuan and handed it to the old god stick and thanked him.
The old god took the money with a smile, carefully put it in his pocket, and then said: "Little classmate, if you still need someone to solve your doubts in the future, just come to me."
Everyone is a neighbor, and I will give you a preferential price.
By the way, that evil ...... in you"
"If you don't worry about it, I'll do it myself. Han Ye hurriedly interrupted this old god who was a fan of money, lest he flicker endlessly.
The old god's face was as usual, but his eyes couldn't help but show a little disappointment,
If this little classmate is willing to let him exorcise an evil spirit, he can earn a hundred again, and he will go out for a little stir-fry and drink a little wine or something this week, and there will be no pressure.
