Chapter 57: Alchemy

Bai Cisheng walked in with a big food box and said with a smile: "I just got the news, Yao Hui has been sent away, my God, it's finally gone!"

The table was quickly filled, and there were more than a dozen dishes, all of which were full of color and flavor.

Cheng Weixi smacked her tongue, is this raising her as a pig?

The body sat down happily, waving chopsticks and eating, Bai Cisheng didn't have to let go, sat down by himself, and joined the army of predators.

Jiang Huaiyin saw that the two of them were eating sweetly, so he also picked up a piece of dim sum and ate it slowly.

At first, Cheng Weixi felt that more than a dozen dishes were too much, but as she ate and ate, she felt that her stomach seemed to have become a bottomless pit, and she couldn't fill it all the dishes, so she swept away all the dishes before she put down her chopsticks.

The amount of food has increased inexplicably, which must be due to the ghost sister's inhalation.

Cheng Weixi rubbed her bulging belly, secretly wondering if she could change the way to replenish her essence, she was a beautiful girl like a flower, with a swollen lower abdomen every day, what if she was misunderstood as a pregnant woman!

Bai Cisheng saw that Cheng Weixi was uncomfortable, so he helped her up: "Why don't we go and see Elder Qingwu! You are so weak, do you have any other nourishing methods besides medicinal food?"

Cheng Weixi looked at the scorching sun outside and flinched a little.

She has always been afraid of heat, and on a sunny day like this, she must hide indoors and pretend to be a marmot.

Bai Cisheng took out a white handkerchief from his sleeve and threw it into the air, and the handkerchief gradually grew larger, covering the sky above Cheng Weixi's head.

Cheng Weixi looked up curiously, and saw that the handkerchief seemed to be woven with silver threads, and when the angle changed, there was silver light flowing, which was very beautiful.

Bai Cisheng said: "This is a magic weapon refined by Guan He with the silk of heavenly insects to cover the clouds, which can change the size at will and cover all the light. ”

Cheng Weixi was amazed, she couldn't imagine that there was such a magic weapon, which happened to be used as a sun umbrella for her!

She walked outside against the clouds, and the noon sun was strong, but she couldn't feel it at all when she stood under the clouds.

Bai Cisheng grabbed Cheng Weixi's arm, and said a few words silently, and the clouds were a little bigger, just blocking the two of them tightly.

Cheng Weixi saw that Jiang Huaiyin's eyebrows were clear, if this delicate skin was tanned, and the immortal would turn into black charcoal, wouldn't it be a pity, so he beckoned him to come in.

Jiang Huaiyin shook his head, refused this special treatment, and followed behind Cheng Weixi with Bai Xiannian.

As for Bai Xiannian, Cheng Weixi also wanted to say hello, but helplessly, the ice face of the other party put on a sign of refusal in advance, so Cheng Weixi gave up, secretly thinking that if this ice face was sunburned, it was none of her business.

The four of them set up a formation and went to find Elder Qingwu.

Cheng Weixi had always thought that Elder Qingwu lived in the small grass hut on the edge of the yam field, but only then did he know that he had another place to live.

Along the mountain, about 200 meters out, you will see a fork in the road, on both sides of the road is a large apricot forest, the branches of the apricot trees are full of fruits, the green color, yellow-green makes people feel sour when they look at it.

Walking deeper along the apricot forest path, you will see a small courtyard full of medicinal herbs.

From the wooden gate to the fence to the wooden tables, chairs and planks in the courtyard, all kinds of herbs are dried.

Several large water tanks were placed on both sides of the courtyard wall, which were supposed to be connected to the rootless water.

There are also a few white-clothed teenagers next to them who are flipping medicines, pounding medicines, drying medicines, and choosing medicines.

Looking further inside, there is a simple building standing in the depths of the small courtyard, and the plaque reads "Xinglin Zhai".

Bai Xiannian greeted one of the teenagers: "Xiao Chen, is Elder Qingwu here?"

The young man named Xiao Chen looked older than the others, and his dress was similar to that of Bai in the past. He put the herbs in his hand back into the medicine basket: "Yes, the elder is about to start alchemy, and he is preparing it in the inner room." ”

Cheng Weixi's eyes lit up, alchemy? She was quite curious about what alchemy was like.

Xiao Chen led a few people to Xinglinzhai's inner room.

Entering the door of the inner room, I saw a table in it, and a small Dan furnace was placed, revealing a dark color, and a tiger was engraved on the Dan furnace, which was very majestic. There are a bunch of bottles and cans next to it.

Elder Qingwu was sitting behind the table fiddling with these bottles and cans, and when he saw a few people, he stood up.

Only then did Cheng Weixi see that Elder Qingwu's clothes were not as dirty and unkempt as usual, but instead dressed in white clothes, his hair was very neatly groomed, and even his beard seemed to have been carefully trimmed and combed.

Bai Cisheng smiled his two round eyes into two crescents: "The elder can only be so neat and tidy before alchemy, and he is also a handsome old man." ”

Elder Qingwu glanced at her lovingly, and then turned his gaze on Cheng Weixi, his face full of concern: "Girl, how do you feel?"

Cheng Weixi stretched out his wrist and asked Elder Qingwu to take the pulse.

Elder Qingwu stroked his beard: "The pulse is stable, it is still a little weak, you need to rest more, with diet therapy and medicinal baths, after a few days, I will think of other ways to help you consolidate." ”

Cheng Weixi was like a curious baby: "Does the elder want to refine the pill?"

Elder Qingwu said, "Of course you can, but you need to concentrate your mind when refining the pill. In case you bother, I'll set up a mirror void enchantment. You look outside the barrier, and if you get bored in the process, you can leave on your own. ”

With that, Elder Qingwu walked behind the table and waved his right hand.

Although Cheng Weixi couldn't see any changes, he also felt that something was shrouded in Elder Qingwu, Xiao Chen, and the table, isolating several of them.

At the same time, Elder Qinggo's movements also became a silent picture.

It turns out that this is the Mirror Void Enchantment. She could see the picture inside, but she couldn't hear the sound inside, and likewise, she couldn't disturb the people inside.

Cheng Weixi sat down with great interest. I saw Elder Qingwu take out the red cinnabar, white alum, transparent mercury, and several unknown medicines from several small boxes, and gently put them in the Dan furnace, and a flame rose in the palm of his right hand, placed them under the Dan furnace, and slowly melted the raw materials in the Dan furnace into liquid, and then slowly condensed from the liquid into a solid.

It took more than half an hour. He took out the medicine and put it aside, Xiao Chen immediately ground the medicine into a fine powder and divided it into three equal parts.

Cheng Weixi secretly thought that alchemy has existed since ancient times, and it is said that the pills contain mercury, and many emperors will be slowly poisoned by mercury after taking the pills. Will Elder Qingwu remove the toxicity of mercury?

Just as he was curious, a voice came from his ear: "Mortal alchemy is taken out of context. Generally speaking, the pills are divided into Tian Yuan Dan, Di Yuan Dan and Ren Yuan Dan, Ren Yuan Dan is the Inner Dan, Di Yuan Dan is the pill refined with plants, and Tian Yuan Dan is refined with hardware and eight stones. The order in which the pills are used is to take the Diyuan Dan, give birth to the Human Yuan Dan, and finally take the Tianyuan Dan. Some people in the mortal world, without cultivation, take Tian Yuan Dan, not only does not have the effect of strengthening the body, but also has the opposite effect. ”

Jiang Huaiyin's mouth didn't move, but the voice kept coming into her ears: "Look carefully, I'll explain it to you." Among the eight stones of hardware, the hardware is gold, silver, red copper, blue lead, and black iron. The eight stones are sulfur, cinnabar, realgar, orpiment, mica, empty blue, salt and saltpeter, in addition to alum, gypsum, mercury and so on. Looking at the raw materials that Elder Qingwu had just used, what he was refining this time should be Tian Yuan Dan. ”
