Chapter Seventy-One: The Great Monk Fights the Alchemist
In the corner of Yecheng, in the courtyard where the big explosion occurred, Yuwen Wen was standing by and watching, looking at a little Taoist boy in front of him with great interest, this person with a big head, big eyes and a small body, living out of an alien.

"Qingfeng, come and help pick up things for the teacher." The bull-nosed Taoist priest shouted, walking among the chaos in the courtyard himself, bending down from time to time to pick up something.
et... Xiao Daotong responded when he heard this, and then ran over to help his master clean up the mess, looking at the little guy's swaying appearance, Yuwen Wen was really worried that the neck would not be able to bear the weight of his head, and suddenly it was broken.
He looked away from Xiao Daotong and looked at a wooden box beside him, which contained the remains of an alchemy furnace, which, according to the Bull-nosed Taoist priest, was as big as a rice jar, but now it had turned into pieces of scrap copper and rotten iron.
There are a total of three people in the courtyard, Yuwen Wen and the master and apprentice, and there is a circle of soldiers outside the courtyard, and it is strictly forbidden for the onlookers to enter the crowd to watch, but in order to avoid wanting to cover up, it is claimed that it is the Taoist alchemy to disturb the people, and now the government is assisting the Taoist chief to "move".
However, some people are not convinced; "My yard has been rented to this old Taoist priest for less than five days, and now there is a big commotion, and many things in the yard have been damaged.
"You said this courtyard is yours, but what proof do you have?"
"Ouch, the neighbors can testify, isn't there still a lizheng?"
"Always money, don't make a noise!" One soldier said, sending the hapless landlord away with money.
Yu Wenwen listened to the movement outside, looked at the master and apprentice in the courtyard, and couldn't help but shake his head: This Daochang Liu is really a veteran of "wandering crimes".
Fang was in the prison of Qiuguanfu, and he was about to teach the other party to be a man, but there were priorities, Yuwenwen decided to clean up the mess first, and then "talk about the Tao" when the situation stabilized, so he came back with the Niubi Taoist priest to pick up things.
The bull-nosed Taoist priest claimed to be forty and three this year, I don't know where he came from, and he was picked up by the master and followed by the surname Liu, because he was picked up by the old Liu Daochang under the poplar tree on the side of the road, so he got the name Liu Yang, and became a Taoist boy to follow the master to alchemy, and his parents had never seen it.
Time passed, Liu Daotong also became Liu Daochang, the old Liu Daochang drove the crane to the west, he continued to refine the pill, and also adopted an abandoned baby, which is now the little Liu Daotong, also called "Qingfeng".
The old Liu Daochang did not have a Taoist temple, so Liu Daochang naturally did not have a Taoist temple, anyway, alchemy can be refined anywhere, so Liu Daochang has been wandering around for decades, mainly near the city rich in products, which is convenient for collecting all kinds of alchemy materials.
Yecheng is the capital of Qi country, rich in products and powerful people, not only is it easy to find alchemy materials, but also convenient to find a job to support themselves, so Liu Daochang took his little apprentice to settle down in the village outside Yecheng.
A few days ago, Liu Daochang found a dilapidated alchemy furnace in the Yecheng market, and after buying it, he felt that it was difficult to carry it, he and his apprentices couldn't carry it, and they were unwilling to hire laborers to carry it out of the city.
Today, he gathered the materials according to the Dan recipe he conceived, and set up the alchemy furnace in the courtyard to make a fire, and after a while, something happened, the sudden explosion was quite terrifying, and it was also thanks to Liu Daochang who went back to the room to get something, and Qingfeng went to the outside of the city to pick up firewood, so he escaped a catastrophe.
Liu Daochang saw that the neighbors came to watch, saw that the courtyard was in a mess, and was worried that he would lose money if he was caught by the landlord, so he hurriedly ran out, and ran head-on to a group of people who rushed over with fierce spirits, and turned around and ran away as thieves.
As a result, he bumped into Yu Wenwen in a Taoist robe, mistaken for a "Taoist friend", and wanted to "run together", but the two were arrested together.
Qingfeng who went out to collect firewood came back, and Qingfeng who followed the master's character didn't have any scheming, seeing a group of people pointing around the yard, and he didn't think about anything and wanted to "go home", but he was caught by the angry landlord, but he was controlled by the soldiers who followed.
Later, Yuwenwen took Liu Yang back to clean up the mess, and also brought the breeze back, he saw the garbage all over the yard, and waited a little impatiently, so he asked Liu Yang to pack up the important things, and then beckoned the soldiers to come in and clean up the mess, and the other party's treasures that were no different from rags were all loaded and transported away.
"Daoist Liu said that he has been alchemy for decades, and he wants to be proficient in alchemy?" Yu Wenwen began to stir up the topic, and then wanted to teach the other party to "be a man".
"I don't dare to be proficient, but I have a lot of experience." Liu Yang twisted his beard and replied, quite complacent, Yuwenwen sneered in his heart when he saw this, so he continued to ask: "Do you want to come to the Taoist to watch "Hug Puzi"? ”
"Is what Lang Jun is asking about the inner or outer chapter?"
"Naturally, it's an inner story, but I heard that Hug Puzi Youyun 'Dansha is burned into mercury, and it accumulates and changes into Dansha', I don't know if there is such a thing?"
"This is indeed the case, and I have also seen this phenomenon when I was refining the pill in the poor way."
"I wonder how you explain this phenomenon?" Yuwen Wen pressed forward step by step.
"This has to be converted from the Five Elements..."
"That's a fallacy!" Yu Wenwen suddenly interrupted the other party, and regardless of the rudeness, he directly came to the head and drank, "Dansha, that is, mercury sulfide, after heating, a reduction reaction occurs, and sulfur escapes to leave mercury, that is, mercury, and mercury plus sulfur undergoes an oxidation reaction, and mercury sulfide is generated, which is black at first, and then turns red, that is, Dansha." ”
Liu Yang almost ripped off his beard, he looked at Yuwenwen as if he was looking at a ghost, he seemed to be able to understand every word the other party said, but he basically couldn't understand it.
Sulphur painting mercury? Also round reflection? Reflection of the words? What's that? What are you talking about?
His mouth opened and closed, he wanted to say something but couldn't say it, if the other party said alchemy, he naturally had the confidence to refute it, but now what he said was confusing, and he didn't know where to start if he wanted to refute it.
"Lang Jun, I don't know where to start with the sulfur painting mercury I just said, the reflection of the circle, and the reflection of the Yanghua?"
Yuwen Wen glanced at Liu Yang, he saw the other party's expression, and he couldn't see the suspiciousness of the traverser, so he continued: "Dao Chang is quite proficient in alchemy? I don't know what kind of pill I'm practicing? ”
As soon as it came to alchemy, Liu Daochang immediately came to his senses, and he didn't care about the terms of Fang Cai, he said that the nine pills of Hupu Zi had been tried, and I don't know what Lang Jun wanted to know.
Yuwenwen only knew that Bao Puzi was the famous Taoist Ge Hong of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, but he didn't know what Jiudan was, so he humbly asked for advice: "Jiudan only hears its name, why don't you explain one or two?" ”
""Hug Puzi Inner Chapter" has clouds, nine pills, the key to immortality, and what extraordinary people should see and hear..."Liu Yang began to talk eloquently, without seeing the stupid appearance in prison at all.
He said that the first Dan of the Nine Dan is called "Danhua", and he should first make Xuanhuang, with realgar water, alum stone water, Rong salt, brine salt, Yu Shi, oyster, red stone fat, talc, Hu powder each dozens of catties, thinking that 61 mud, 36 days of fire, 7 days of service.
and with the ointment pill this pill, put it on the fierce fire, and it must be turned into gold. and 240 baht and 100 catties of mercury were lit and barbecued, which also became gold. The gold becomes the medicine also. If the gold fails, then seal the medicine and continue to grill it with fire, the number of days required is the same as before, and it will be refined in the end.
The second pill is called a rune, and it will become an immortal after taking it for 100 days, and then it will be able to walk in water and fire, and use this elixir to smear the soles of the feet to walk on the water. After taking the three swords, the three corpse gods and the nine insects will all dissolve and die, and all diseases can be cured.
The third Dan is called Shendan. Take a knife and become an immortal in a hundred days. If you swallow it for six animals, you can also live forever. And invulnerable. After taking it for 100 days, the fairies and jade girls, the mountains, rivers, ghosts and gods all came to serve, and they all turned into human forms.
The fourth Dan is called Huandan. Take a knife and become an immortal in a hundred days. The vermilion bird and phoenix flew overhead, and the jade girl also came to her side. Mix a pound of mercury with a knife, grill it with a fire, and make it gold.
If you put this pill on your money, you can return it to your owner on the same day even if you use it. With this elixir, it is smeared on the eyes of mortals, and the hundred ghosts dodge.
The fifth Dan is named Bait Dan, and he becomes an immortal after taking it for 30 days. The ghosts and gods came to serve, and the jade girl came to the front.
The sixth Dan is called Alchemy, and he becomes an immortal after taking it for ten days. It was also mixed with mercury and roasted over a fire, which became gold.
The seventh Dan is named Roudan, and if you take a knife, you will become an immortal after a hundred days. After mixing with the juice of the missing pot, the ninety old man can also give birth to children, and the golden prince is mixed with the fire to barbecue, that is, it becomes gold.
The eighth Dan is named Fudan, and he becomes an immortal on the day he takes it. Take the elixir the size of a jujube pit in your hand, the hundred ghosts dodge, and write the elixir on the portal, so that all the evil spirits dare not go forward, and you can let the thieves and tigers and wolves avoid it.
The ninth Dan is called Handan. Take a knife and become an immortal in a hundred days. The fairy fairy comes to serve, and flies lightly, without wings.
"This Nine Dan, you only need to practice one of them to become an immortal, after taking it, if you want to ascend to heaven, if you want to stay in the world, or enter and exit the two worlds, come and go freely." Liu Yang said.
'So many famous halls, it sounds very powerful, but in fact, these things that have been refined, mercury, lead and other heavy metals are seriously exceeded, and those who eat light ones become brain dead and become chronic poisoning, and the heavy ones will hang up directly..."Yu Wenwen complained in his heart, as a person who has received modern education, he naturally does not believe in the elixir.
The one in front of him, a serious alchemist, is undoubtedly the kind that has decades of experience in alchemy, and many of the drug terms he said are different from the terms of later generations, Yu Wenwen doesn't understand it very well, except that he knows that "Daogui" is a tool for measuring medicine, and "Jin Gong" is lead, some of the terms don't know what they refer to at all.
But it doesn't matter, he has a trick, and the reason why he let the other party say so much is to refute it as worthless and ruin his 'three views'.
"The nine pills that the Taoist chief said, have you ever refined them into one or two?" Yu Wenwen asked nonsense.
"I'm ashamed, the poor Dao is not very perceptive, and I haven't practiced one so far."
"Dao Chief, there are many mistakes in what Hug Puzi said, haven't you just learned the secret method, why don't you learn a thing or two?"
"What kind of secret method did Lang Jun learn?" Liu Yang became interested when he heard this, just like a hungry man seeing a cooking cake, and looked at Yu Wenwen with glowing eyes.
"This method is different from the Central Plains Alchemy, it is called chemistry..."Yu Wenwen entered a state of recollection, and began to recall the few other remaining junior and senior high school chemistry knowledge, "If you want to learn this method, you must become a monk." ”
"To learn this 'chemistry', you have to shave and become a monk?" Liu Yang was surprised when he heard this.
"This monk is not another monk, and listen to me slowly..." )
