Chapter 15: Alchemy (Part 2)

"Glowing white grass, damp and cold, born in the muddy land, the juice is yellowed and has a strange fragrance, and has the effect of dust and decontamination. โ€

"Plain flowers, open to the sun, like warmth, flowers are divided into three colors, its powder is white, and has the effect of whitening and moisturizing. โ€

"Panshi root, for the rhizome of Panshan vine, Panshan vine is born according to the mountain, the rhizome likes to wrap around the stone and grow, gray and white dry wrinkled, ground into powder but has the effect of lubrication. โ€

......

Xiao Nan talked eloquently, explaining each herb clearly. For the unforgettable self, these are pediatrics.

"Well, that's a good point. Qifu nodded with satisfaction, and then scolded angrily: "Since this is the case, why don't you quickly pick out the medicinal herbs!"

"Hehe!" Xiao Nan laughed secretly, and hurriedly pulled Ye Tingcheng to pick up the medicinal herbs together.

After a while, the medicinal materials were prepared, and Qifu brought a small alchemy furnace with a width of a few feet and set it up on the open-air stove in the courtyard.

"Finally, there is the third point of the alchemistโ€”fire! If you want to talk about fire, you have to start with fire. โ€

He squinted his eyes and paused before he said leisurely, "Not all the fires in this world are the same. You make a fire every day to cook and keep warm, which is just the most ordinary ordinary fire. In addition to this, there are all kinds of spiritual fires and strange fires, which can be encountered but not sought, all of which are of great help to the alchemist!"

The concept of heat is easy to understand, but ...... Xiao Nan was a little puzzled and asked, "Uncle Seven Immortals, what is a spiritual fire and a strange fire?"

Qifu raised the ebony fan, shook it slightly, his eyes were deep and far-reaching, and he sighed: "Born in the world, there is no wood and burns...... It is for the spiritual fire, the alien fire. โ€

After saying these two words, he stopped talking, but lit the stove and began to put the herbs in place. Spiritual fire and strange fire, for them, are tantamount to a castle in the air, out of reach.

"You pay attention to the order, timing and proportion of my medicinal materials...... The simmering fire is mild, the martial fire is violent, and there is no fixed rule for the heat of each refining, but according to the refining situation of the medicinal materials, you see!"

He suddenly increased the firewood, and the flame "Teng" rose, quickly burning and melting the herb.

After a while, herbs such as glowing white grass and plain flowers turned into juice, and they were in a state of semi-melting and unmelting.

"Creek wind grass. Qifu put in this catalytic herb at the right time, and then closed the lid of the furnace and burned it with a simmer, "You maintain the heat, and in a moment of time, the white dust pill can be completed." โ€

Looking at the Seven Immortals' step-by-step movements and techniques, Xiao Nan's mind was tumbling endlessly.

He has been reading all the medical books and works in the grass recently, but he can't understand many of them because of his lack of practical experience.

At this time, compared with Uncle Seven Immortals' operation, a string of knowledge points was separated from the messy content, arranged according to some strange law, and was quickly digested and understood by him.

โ€œ...... Observe the movement of yin and yang, and it is easier to use the fire, then the fire has the purpose of priority and urgency, and the opportunity to start and stop when waiting for the fire to stop......"

Xiao Nan seemed to have suddenly opened his mind, his mind was clear, many difficulties were solved, and his understanding of medical skills and alchemy reached a new level.

"The path of an alchemist is very difficult, this is only the simplest non-tasting elixir, but if you want to learn it, it is not easy to maintain a certain rate of becoming an elixir. โ€

While explaining, Qifu opened the Dan furnace, only to see a drop of liquid medicine flowing, and as soon as it came into contact with the stimulation of the outside air, it immediately condensed into a round white pill.

"Eighteen in all...... I don't know what the rate of Cheng Dan is?" Xiao Nan counted silently.

"Okay, this is the White Dust Pill. "Qifu recuperated for a while before taking out the pill, "According to the records of the Dan Fang, the Baichen Pill can become a maximum of twenty pills in one furnace, and the old man is eighteen pieces this time, and the rate of ninety percent of the pills is ninety." โ€

Ninety percent of the Cheng Dan rate? Xiao Nan gasped!

There are not many records about alchemy in the Junction Grass House, but there is a sentence in it-

Alchemist, Cheng Danyi became the first court, Cheng Dan San became a little smaller, Cheng Dan Wu became a hall and entered the house, Cheng Dan Qi became a perfect fire, and Cheng Dan Jiu became the peak.

"Even if the White Dust Pill is only the simplest non-grade elixir, it can easily reach ninety percent of the Cheng Dan, and it is definitely a mid-grade or above alchemist!"

Xiao Nan secretly glanced at Qima, only to feel that what he saw was only the tip of the iceberg, far from the whole of this mysterious old man.

This Seven Immortal Uncle is not an ordinary hidden uncle!

Although Ye Wen and Ye Chengcheng didn't understand, they showed little stars in their eyes, obviously worshipping them to the extreme.

"Okay, the next twenty materials will be handed over to you to practice!" Nanama pointed to the materials that Fang had just sorted out with an ebony fan, "Little guys, which of you will come first?"

He talked to the three of them on the surface, but his eyes looked at Xiao Nan, and he had the intention to test it, and by the way, he looked at the jokes.

"I'll come first, I'll come first!" Ye Wen didn't see the deep meaning of Uncle Seven Immortals, stood on tiptoe, raised her little hand high, and was eager to try.

Uncle Seven Immortals looked at her little face full of anticipation, and said with a loving smile: "Okay, you come first, the fire is dangerous, Xiao Nan, you take care of it on the side!"

Xiao Nan rolled his eyes, thinking that with you, the big guy, where do I need to take care of it. However, he still sat next to Ye Wen honestly and helped watch the firewood.

Ye Wen rubbed her little hands, her little face was red by the firelight, she stepped on the small bench and threw a few medicinal materials into the furnace step by step, learning from the appearance of the Seven Immortals and constantly observing, carefully controlling the fire.

As the heat changed, the medicinal herbs in the furnace slowly melted, and she showed a cheerful smile, only to feel that success was in sight.

After a while, she threw in the brookweed and closed the lid of the stove.

Uncle Seven Immortals nodded secretly, smiled silently, and then shook his head slightly. Xiao Nan observed the words and looks, and "groaned" in his heart, and suddenly felt that it was going to be bad.

"Bang!"

A muffled sound suddenly exploded from the furnace, making Ye Wen tremble all over, her little face turned pale, "Deng, Deng, Deng", three steps back.

Xiao Nan's eyes were quick, he picked up the sand on one side and threw it on the flame, first extinguished the fire, and then grabbed Ye Wen and threw herself out, protecting her whole body in front of her.

Ye Wen was caught off guard, fell on her back in the herb, and raised her eyes to see Xiao Nan pressing against her body face to face, her eyes coming together like bright stars, and the tip of her nose could easily feel the warm breath exhaling from the other party's mouth.

"Damn......" She was so angry that she forgot her fear for a while, and wanted to push the bastard in front of her away, but she felt that her hands were tightly held and she couldn't break free.

The skin is like condensed fat, the eyes are like cutting water, and the slightest fragrance enters the nose, Xiao Nan can't help but ripple in his heart, and his heart beats faster.

"It's over, am I going to be tempted by a little girl who doesn't have any hair......"

While the two of them were thinking about each other, Uncle Seven Immortals had already taken over the Dan Furnace and stabilized the situation.

"Alright, you two get up. Nanama's voice came slowly.

"Little thief, don't let me go quickly!" Ye Wen snorted angrily, her eyes glaring, "What do you see, and then watch this girl gouge out your eyes!"

Xiao Nan hurriedly let go of his hands and got up, muttering in his mouth: "Fierce, you will take revenge, see how you can marry when you grow up!"

"Hmph, you, what are you talking about! I'm ...... I ......" Ye Wen's ears are sensitive and she can hear clearly, and she is so angry that she stomps her feet!

Ye Tingcheng looked happy, and covered his mouth and chuckled lightly.
