The second is the formula of the elixir, which can also be said to be a crucial factor. This formula is in charge of whether the pill can be refined, and without the correct formula, it is absolutely impossible to refine the correct pill. Therefore, each elixir has a unique formula, and even if it is a different herb, it will be very different. Therefore, before alchemy, you must confirm whether your formula is correct, otherwise you may fall short.

Then there is the grasp of the heat, if you want to talk about the importance of the heat, pull a random chef on the street and ask, he can tell you the mystery of this. If the fire is big, it can't be small, the simmer can't last, the fire can't last, and the fire must have a critical temperature. Jiu Wentian thought to himself, although he was not good at cooking, he also knew that a dish needed a variety of heats.

The importance of this heat is self-evident, and Jiu Wentian asked, "I see that the recipe says that it needs to be made with low heat." ”

"That's just one side," Gu Qi said disdainfully, "If you really want to be a qualified or even excellent alchemist, try to control the heat yourself." You must know that the experience belongs to others, and the practice is your own. It's like this is a chili pepper, don't talk about a bunch of horns, it's better to take a bite yourself. ”

"I didn't expect you to be so cultured," Jiu Wentian said with a smile: "A bowl of hot and sour soup, what you hear and talk about, it's better to understand it in person." ”

Gu Qi laughed and said, "That's a bit interesting, that's all I want to say." ”

After chatting, Gu Qi continued to say that although the control of fire is important, there is another way hidden in it. Time, what kind of color the pill in the equipment is, I don't know, I can't see it, I can't touch it. In this regard, an alchemist is different from a chef, and an alchemist needs to keep an accurate grasp of time.

When a chef is cooking, he can see that his ears, nose, mouth, eyes, and even his sense of touch and taste are focused on this dish, and he knows exactly when to put salt and when to put condiments. But the alchemist is different, the elixir is naturally formed in the equipment, just like nature shapes the mountains.

You don't know what her inner changes are, you only know what the finished product looks like, if a place used to be a plain, and then it became a mountain due to various factors, what you see is like a mountain now. You can't see what it went through, but you can do it as it was formed.

In other words, the heat during alchemy can be adjusted by time. It's like this Qi Qingjing Pill, first of all, you have to refine it with a low fire, so that their properties will be soft together first, and then grasp the moment when it takes shape, and replace it with a large fire, so that the medicinal properties will be more perfect if they are quickly wrapped. It's also a science, so you have to work on time and heat, because these can't be compensated for by external objects.

Another thing is that this is not something you can control, but it varies from you to you.

Speaking of this, Jiu Wentian was stunned for a moment, and then said, "What do you mean?"

"Tinder. Gu Qi stretched out a branch and scratched his crown, and then continued: "There are several types of fire in this world, namely body fire, open fire, external fire, dark fire, and divine fire, and what you use is body fire. ”

Body fire doesn't require much physical strength, as long as you're still alive, then your body fire is burning. Alchemy equipment is also called an alchemy device because it is supported by external fire, and it can continue to burn inside. It can also be said that this is a weapon structure, so the level of fire also determines the success or failure of the elixir.

Jiu Wentian also learned from this time that there are several types of fire, and his current body fire is also a very ordinary fire, not even comparable to real fire, that is, the fire produced by combustion. A person's body fire is of course low-level, but if it is a person with strong force, the body fire is also very powerful, so this is also linked to force.

But Jiu Wentian is a congenital meridian closure, and he has no force at all, so he only has the body fire of ordinary people. If you give it to Nian Siqi to practice, it can be raised to the level of lighting firewood.

Jiu Wentian asked, "Then I want to do alchemy now, where can I find such a powerful fire?"

"I do have some dark fire here, but the dark fire level is too high, and it is not suitable for you," Gu Qi said: "In this way, it is a waste to give it to you, and when you can refine such a simple formula into the best, it will mean ......"

"Can I use the Dark Fire?"

"No, that means you're just getting started. ”

After a long time, Wentian was speechless, and said helplessly: "Is alchemy so difficult? I guess I will become an old man if I learn it." ”

Gu Qi smiled again when he heard this, and said: "I think I can still send you away if you become an old man, I have lived for so long, and I didn't say that I am an old man, you are good, just look at yourself." Obviously, the ...... who thinks you're a good seedling"

Jiu Wentian hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Who is the one you are talking about?"

"Oh, an old friend, don't mention it. Gu Qi's face slowly disappeared, "Let's go." ”

Jiu Wentian felt the powerful power again, but he was also used to it, and he didn't have the fear of the first time, but felt that it was like swinging. When Jiu Wentian saw the closed door, he was still wondering what kind of character "that one" was, and even he couldn't stop being curious.

However, after thinking about some things about the elixir, Jiu Wentian didn't think about "that" anymore, and Jiang Qiufang came out soon. Now there is a burst of fragrance on her body, which makes Jiu Wentian feel that this fragrance is very fragrant, but Jiu Wentian has a very peculiar feeling, this fragrance is not like an ordinary fragrance.

It was a little ugly, a little seductive, Jiu Wentian smiled bitterly, and thought to himself, is it because this is the reason for the Qinglou? This kind of thing is indeed a little uncomfortable for Jiang Qiufang, but after all, it is also in this place, and it is difficult for people not to think about it. Jiu Wentian was embarrassed to say it, anyway, it was just this time.

Jiang Qiufang looked at Jiu Wentian, who was sitting on the ground, and said, "How about brother, doesn't this smell very good?"

After a long time, Tianxin said don't ask me this question, I just finished thinking about it, and now I don't know how to answer you. I thought so in my heart, but Jiu Wentian still said: "It smells good, it's very fragrant." ”

"Yes, I think so too," Jiang Qiufang sniffed his arm, and then smiled with satisfaction, "When I go back, I must ask my father to prepare more of this spice for me, it smells so good, ah—it smells so good." ”
