Chapter 115: The First Time in Life 1
This prescription, in general, does not look like a good prescription by any means.
Wu Xuanyue locked herself in the alchemy room and began her first career as a pill knot. If you do something with your heart, you can also forget about that ruthless and unrighteous person for a while.
There are many firsts in a person's life, and they are all unforgettable.
She adjusted the Dan stove to 200 degrees according to the instructions, which is called a hot stove, just like heating a pot before stir-frying.
After heating the pan while stir-frying, add oil.
And alchemy, the first taste is not oil, it is a very common herb in Xiuzhen, called the herb of silver leaf grass, its function is before alchemy, after the Dan furnace is heated, put in the silver leaf grass, in the process of refining the silver leaf grass, is the process of removing the miscellaneous smell in the furnace, when the silver leaf grass is gone, the Dan furnace will become a clean space without any peculiar smell.
This is called a furnace cleaner.
Therefore, the first step in alchemy is to heat the furnace.
The second step is to clean the furnace.
The third step is to refine the medicine.
The fourth step is to tie the knot.
The fifth step is to bake.
It seems to be very simple and easy to understand, but it is obvious that the third step of refining medicine and the fourth step of knotting pills are the focus, and the refining process is also the most time-consuming, the most difficult to grasp and the easiest to make mistakes.
Judging from the time indicated at the back of each medicinal material, the refining time ranges from seven or eight minutes to ten minutes, and the average refining time of each medicinal material is calculated as ten minutes on average, and the fifty medicinal materials add up to about ten hours.
Ten hours of concentrating on one thing, and you can't be distracted, putting, controlling temperature, and adjusting the amount of medicinal materials, it takes a lot of mental strength and endurance for a person, and generally one person can't complete it.
After the first step was to heat the furnace and the second step was to clean the furnace, Wu Xuanyue began the third step, which was the process of refining medicine.
Previously, she had made preparations for refining medicines, weighed each medicinal material first, and then placed them in order, and after the preparation was completed, the next step was to put the corresponding medicinal materials and additives in the control time.
She threw in the first herb hops, and soon after she threw them, the hops gave off a strange smell, then slowly became fragrant, and finally when the time was up, it became extremely smelly again.
She quickly took notes on her laptop, and hops were put into the process of turning from smelly to fragrant and then to smelly. until the herbs turn into yellow puree.
The second flavor is heather, and the third flavor is sunflower, and she found that the refining process of these two flavors of medicinal materials is from incense to smell, and from smell to fragrance, which is the opposite of hops. But in general, in the end, it is the aroma that wafts out of the Dan furnace.
In refining, Wu Xuanyue also found that some medicines are neither fragrant nor smelly after being put in, but are a very unique taste that will not change their flavor from beginning to end.
There are many substances that are the process of finally reaching equilibrium in the process of mutual reciprocity.
After she threw in the twentieth flavor of medicinal materials, the note was obviously marked in large letters, at this time, other additives needed to be put in, the so-called additives are a kind of medicine that allows all the drugs refined in the early stage to undergo a chemical change process, and it can also be said to be a process of sublimation of the drugs refined in the early stage, so that the medicine pill can be taken to a higher level.
This additive is a kind of refined elixir, called Longli Dan, which is just an additive here, acting as a catalyst.
This is also the most critical step in the early stage, if this step fails, it is equivalent to saying that the first 20 processes are all scrapped. We have to start all over again.
She carefully followed the instructions, starting with one pill, then slowly increasing over time, and finally placing a full bottle.
It is said that the pill is expensive to sell, and that is because the process of knotting the pill is very technical, and once it is scrapped, all the medicinal materials will be discarded.
Therefore, alchemists can say that they are rich or poor, and it all depends on technology.
Wu Xuanyue is indeed rich, and that is because her mother has accumulated too much wealth for her.
Others are the second generation of the rich, the second generation of the official, she is the second generation of medicine, the second generation of Fu, the second generation of Dan, and the second generation of the rich second generation of scarce resources in the cultivation realm.
She added the Longli Pill catalyst and waited for the last puff of green smoke to rise, and the miscellaneous smell dissipated, and as the note said, a colorless and odorless slimy ointment appeared.
"yes, the first knot is done. ”
She cheered and cheered for herself, hurriedly took a sip of water, quickly adjusted the temperature of the Dan furnace, and then put in the twenty-first herbs.
By this time, she had spent four hours.
Next, she put the herbs and herbs into the Dan furnace in order and time, and before the second node, she could not easily assert its success or failure.
After Wu Xuanyue boiled for another four hours according to the procedure, she finished smelting the forty flavored herbs and reached the second node.
After the second node, it is necessary to put two additive pills as catalysts at the same time, Bing Yuan Dan and Yang Yuan Dan.
She put these two additive pills into the Dan furnace, and the sweat on her forehead had already soaked her hair, and a full eight hours had passed.
If now, the catalytic sublimation of the second node drug fails, it is equivalent to saying that the previous 40 or so processes will be abandoned and all of them will be denied.
After Wu Xuanyue put in the catalytic medicine, the pill in the Dan furnace instantly changed color, from colorless to black, and then turned yellow-brown again, and the ointment was churning in the Dan furnace, churning like a hot molten slurry.
And it emits a foul smell, and the smell is unbearable.
Wu Xuanyue could only hold on, she didn't dare to leave half a step, for fear of making a mistake at a critical moment, she had to record every small detail of the ointment into the computer in detail, even if it failed, she would only know what was wrong when she was refining next time, and seek improvement.
She had to cover her nose to endure the stench and persist in getting through this hurdle.
Finally, a smile gradually appeared on her face, because she knew that the key to the success or failure of the second node was that the ointment formed was yellow-brown in color, and the smell of the medicine must be extremely smelly.
If it is a scent, the second node fails. Now the ointment emits a foul stench, proving that the second junction has passed without incident.
The second node catalyzed the success of sublimation, and Wu Xuanyue's confidence increased greatly, although eight hours had passed, she was still in good spirits.
The next step was to happily begin the third stage of refining the elixir.
There are the last ten flavors of medicinal materials that need to be refined, which is precisely the most critical ten steps, the temperature control of each flavor of medicinal materials becomes complicated, and each flavor of medicinal materials needs to be raised first, and at the end of the refining of this flavor of medicinal materials, the temperature must be lowered to the temperature control point when it was first put in.
The last ten flavors of medicinal materials are said to have extremely high technical content, and almost all of the eight flavors of medicinal materials are extremely toxic and rare medicinal materials.
When refining, she had to wear two layers of masks, and it was difficult to resist its toxicity, and the whole person felt dizzy.
In the end, the two herbs are just the opposite, not only are they not toxic, but they are also great tonics.
The fiftieth flavor of medicinal herbs is the source of the great tonic thousand golden vines.
