Chapter 33: The Three-Year-Old Pharmacist (Part 2)
Fame and fortune are in danger, and wealth is in danger.
What's more, there is no danger now, at most the refining fails, and the explosion makes a fool, and the Seven Immortals seize the opportunity to laugh at it.
Xiao Nan's thoughts were set, and he immediately calmed down and adjusted himself to the best state.
Although there is no momentum of "the Great Sage stepping on the South Sky and never returning", he also has the belief in a decisive victory.
I don't know why, Ye Wen looked at the thin boy in front of her, and suddenly felt that he seemed to be tall, like a lonely fierce general, blocking the mountains in front of him, reflecting the sky in his back, and only fighting.
Xiao Nan lit the firewood and carefully controlled the fire to spread. He didn't have the cultivation of Uncle Seven Immortals to control the fire, so he could only use the earth method to constantly adjust.
In refining medicine, heat is the top priority, which is better than the introduction of medicinal materials, and is the key factor in the conditioning of medicinal properties.
The fire is in place, and the medicine stove is warm.
He carefully recalled the words and deeds of the Seven Immortal Uncles, compared the secret scrolls of the Danshu in the Inheritance Palace, and put the various medicinal herbs into the furnace one by one.
Due to the different properties of various herbs, the requirements for heat, temperature, quantity, ratio and catalysis are different, and the delivery of medicinal materials is also the same technical activity.
It is necessary to control the heat to different degrees at the same time, and consider the situation in the furnace.
He finished the herbs as he pondered, immersed himself in the world where the herbs melted. He is attentive and distracted.
Ye Wen and Ye Chengcheng, who were watching from the side, looked at it in their hearts, for fear that he would accidentally give up his efforts.
They just watched Uncle Seven Immortals go all the way, and they didn't feel that there was any difficulty in the process of refining medicine, but at this time, when they watched Xiao Nan's refining, they found that it was extremely difficult to take one step at a time.
"This step has passed...... It's over! It's great, come on!" the two little girls clenched their little fists tightly, and couldn't stop shouting in their hearts, as if they were a hundred times more nervous than Xiao Nan.
In the blink of an eye, when it was time to melt the medicine, Xiao Nan had not heard the detailed explanation of the Seven Immortals on the Yipin Dan technique, only based on the description in the Dan book, the key to melting the medicine was catalysis and temperature.
He stared intently at the off-white medicine in the furnace. This is brook windweed. He remembered very well that the brook wind grass was one of the pharmacological knowledge that he memorized when he entered the grass house that day.
"Creek wind grass, born in the damp land by the riverside, is mostly associated with the reed, has the wonder of reconciling yin and yang, and is mostly used as an auxiliary material to refine all kinds of elixir. ”
Xifeng grass is the catalyst among the many herbs of the Blood Coagulation Pill, and it has the magic of harmonizing medicinal properties.
He gently adjusted the heat so that the liquid swirled along the bottom of the furnace, keeping his eyes on the stream wind herb in it, allowing it to slowly blend into the other liquids.
In this way, after two rounds of aggregation and fusion, the liquid medicine finally differentiates into small grains. Xiao Nan was calm, there were no joys and sorrows, he sat down facing the stove, listening to the subtle sound of firewood and medicine stove.
"Hey, good fellow, is the old man still underestimating you?" said Shichitoma's hand as he stroked his beard, unable to believe that he had successfully completed the steps of melting the potion.
After a while, the medicine stove fell silent. Xiao Nan got up and watched the counting time before gently pushing the medicine stove to turn it on.
The liquid condensed in the wind, turning into pills that seemed to be gently shaken by the flames.
"Channeling spirits, is it to make the tremor frequency of the pill close to the invisible rule frequency between heaven and earth, so as to resonate?" Xiao Nan hesitated for the first time, and repeatedly observed the breath of the pill.
"It's tricky, isn't it?" Nanama smiled, couldn't help but pick up the ebony fan and sit down comfortably, "Hehe, don't let you encounter some setbacks, but teach you to underestimate our alchemists!"
Frequency, temperature, furnace pressure, air, centrifugal ...... Xiao Nan's mind was full of thoughts, and if he had something, his right hand suddenly pressed towards the void, as if he had grabbed some kind of qi and sent it to the furnace.
Ye Tingcheng closed his eyes tightly, not daring to look at it, for fear of seeing a bad scene, he bit his red lips and prayed. Before long, she looked up, only to see that the pill slowly stopped spinning, but the surface was smooth and unchanged.
"Could it be...... Did you really fail?" she was shocked in her heart, it seemed that everything was taken for granted, after all, Xiao Nan had not learned a complete one-grade alchemy technique, and it was the first time to try, and failure was inevitable.
She looked at the young man she was thinking about, and the other party's face was a little pale, and she couldn't help but feel a faint pain in her heart, and couldn't help but pray again.
"Is it finally about to fail?" Nanama's face smiled.
"Really...... Did you fail? In the end, what is the spirit induction?" Xiao Nan couldn't figure it out, and he had to accept the end of failure.
At this moment, the Natal Spirit Gu, which had not moved for a long time, suddenly probed from the sea of knowledge, and flicked the tip of its fiery red tail in the direction of the medicine furnace.
There seemed to be an invisible qi machine falling in the sky.
"Could it be ......" Xiao Nan hurriedly looked into the furnace, only to see that the pill that was already on the verge of failure had a faint change on the surface.
After a while, the pill stabilized, and I saw the dark red surface of the mountains undulating, and a picture of the Dan pattern appeared.
The Natal Spirit Gu rolled mischievously and retracted into the depths of the Sea of Knowledge, leaving Xiao Nan standing on the spot in a daze: "This ...... Is it the inducing spirit? Born with a Dan pattern, a pill?"
"Cheng ...... Yes...... It worked!" Ye Tingcheng stammered and couldn't say clearly.
Ye Wen opened her mouth wide and subconsciously shouted, "Change...... Perverted!Big ...... Perverted!"
"This ......" Nanato's smile froze at the corners of her mouth, turning into a twitch. He blew his beard and glared, and checked the medicine stove up and down: "This ...... How is this possible?"
"Uncle Seven Immortals, did I succeed?" Xiao Nan came back to his senses and smiled, "That's ...... Do you still count the ten herbs that you said?"
"Zuo...... The old man is full of words, and he naturally counts!" He gritted his teeth, said word by word, and then sighed: "It's really the back wave pushing the front wave, the front wave is dead, and there are many talents!
Xiao Nan jumped up happily when he heard this, and hurriedly picked up the medicine basket and picked up the herbs one by one, for fear that Uncle Seven Immortals would regret it after a while in the evening.
"Brother Anan, you are so powerful! Can you teach me?" Ye Chengcheng walked to his side and helped him pick out the herbs together, speaking softly, revealing admiration.
"Okay, okay! However, I may just be lucky! I still need to practice more, practice more!" Xiao Nan seemed to let go of the knot, no longer thinking about the big and small problems, and touched his head and laughed twice.
"It's a pity that we are only a small branch of the River tribe in the south, and there is no medicine pavilion to be stationed. Otherwise, the old man can take you to the official certification!" Although Qifu did not take advantage, he was still very happy to mention a few words.
"Medicine Pavilion, what is that?" Ye Wen heard this, and leaned over to Uncle Seven Immortals to ask. Xiao Nan and Ye Tingcheng also looked over together.
"The Medicine Pavilion is a medicine refining organization that stands in our wilderness, collecting and selling all kinds of herbs and pills, and is also in charge of the investigation and identification of the alchemist level. "Nanama shook the ebony fan and popularized the basics to a few people.
"The Medicine Pavilion is all over the world, and its reputation is outstanding, although it is not explicitly stated, it can be said that only the alchemists who have obtained the approval of the Medicine Pavilion will be recognized by everyone as alchemists!"
"Doesn't that mean......" Everyone then remembered, "Xiao Nan, you can already become an official alchemist!"
"Moreover, it's a three-year-old first-grade alchemist!"
