(Just three are about to be oversed, urgently ask for a monthly pass, today on the 23rd, maybe everyone's monthly pass in the second half of the month will come out, please vote for the heavenly official, plead)

The Dan room is different from the storage room, and as soon as you enter, you feel the heating rushing to your face.

Seeing this, the Taoist idiot couldn't help but rejoice, fortunately it was already October, and the weather was getting cooler, if the prince thought of alchemy in July or August, it would be a cup.

The temperature in Dan's room was much higher than outside.

In the Dan room, there is a two-foot high altar, two three-stone furnaces are set on the altar, and the large and small copper tripods are placed on the middle and the north furnace. On the other side of the main furnace, various metal pipes turned out to be an ancient distillation device.

On one side of the door, there was a three-foot-high and six-foot-long strip, on which were placed various tools for concocting materials, knives and grinding supplies, various plates and empty jade boxes.

Seeing Dao Idiot and Lu Bing coming in, Shizi beckoned the two of them to come forward and handed Lu Bing a two-and-a-half-foot-long pipe, which was used to blow fire.

The fire here is watched by a special person, and it will not be extinguished for many years, but it is just not extinguished. Lu Bing's errand is responsible for blowing up the small flames.

The errand of the Taoist idiot is to follow the son of the world to learn to concoct Dan materials.

Dansha, alum, and stone alkali have to be ground into powder, and ginseng contains water, which is more troublesome, first sliced and dried, and then crushed and ground into fine powder. Both astragalus and atractylodes are dried, and they are directly sliced and ground.

The materials are not mixed, and after being ground into a fine powder, they are finely sieved three times, and the finest sieve is made of palace yarn. After sifting powder, delicate and tender.

Lu Bing puffed out his cheeks and blew up the small flames in the furnace. Put the charcoal on it, and proudly communicate with the son.

The prince took a closer look, and the idiot also looked at it twice.

The so-called coal is coal, and the coal prepared here is not ordinary coal, but mostly after preliminary combustion, which means a bit of coke. Such coal fires quickly and produces less smoke.

The so-called alchemy is really based on refining.

The first thing the prince used was the distillation device, and what was put in was dansha powder. After two quarters of an hour, the result is mercury.

Looking at this silver-white liquid, Shizi smiled, obviously this step was very successful.

The Taoist idiot sat behind the prince, holding his breath and concentrating, but he was stunned in his heart. This is mercury, whether it is liquid or vaporized, it is toxic.

This simple distillation utensil, who knows that the bottom leaks without leakage.

Lu Bing looked at the mercury, and his eyes brightened: "Your Highness, this is practicing alchemy?" Can you practice gold? ”

Shizi said: "If you want to practice gold, you need gold and stone, but what you refine is also golden sand, let you see that another day." ”

Lu Bing nodded, his face full of excitement and anticipation.

The Taoist idiot was also a little interested. Immortal magic is illusory, but hundreds of years ago, it was quite novel to see a reaction similar to the chemical experiments of later generations.

After the mercury was made, the prince then used a small copper tripod, first put the mercury, and then put in the alum and stone alkali in turn.

The temperature in the Dan room was getting higher and higher, and several people's faces were red.

Shizi stared at the hourglass, waited until an hour later, poured ginseng, atractylodes, astragalus and other powders into it, and cut off the fire source after refining for half a while. It is not taken out directly, but then simmered.

Half an hour later, the prince of the world opened.

There is an inch and a half square red cake mud at the bottom of the ding, and the prince takes out the bingmu, places it on the jade plate, and divides it into nine parts with a jade knife, and then kneades each one into a balls the size of a thumb cover.

Then nine balls were baked in an oven for a quarter of an hour.

Nine reddish grains with a silvery-white luster, steaming Yiqi Pill are baked.

Lu Bing's eyes were straight, and the face of the idiot was also undisguised "shock".

It turns out that this is alchemy, a mixture of mercury as the mother. Even if there is no gold and stone, all the herbs are used, but the mercury alone is the bottom, and this pill cannot be eaten. If you eat too much, you will have mercury poisoning, and there will be problems in the digestive system, nervous system, urinary system, and blood system. The consequence is that the body is full of holes, and even if you can't die, it's hard to survive.

But as far as he knows, it seems that most of the Dan prescriptions recorded in ancient books use Dansha, and mercury is indispensable after refining. It seems that if you want to influence the hobby of the prince, it is not easy to put Dansha aside.

What's going on? History clearly records that Jiajing has been an emperor for more than 40 years, and he has been obsessed with alchemy for more than 20 years. This thing eats for twenty years and doesn't die, that's really magical. Did you eat it or not, or did you just practice it? The current history has not happened, and there is really no place to verify it.

Where could the prince have thought that the Taoist idiot was "afraid of Dan like a tiger" in his heart, and thought that Erxiao was fascinated by Cheng Dan.

He frowned, struggled in his heart, and said, "Okay, look at the two of you who have no interest, and I will give you a pill each." With that, he put his fingers together and divided one for each.

He was also secretly proud in his heart, alchemy is not always a Dan, it is good to be able to become a Dan three or four times out of ten, today he didn't think about becoming a Dan, but he was just going to try it twice, so that Dao Idiot and Lu Bing could see the process.

I didn't expect to be out of Dan once, and the condition was not bad.

The Taoist idiot held the elixir with residual warmth in both hands, his face was full of excitement, and said: "Thank you, Your Highness, for the reward, the solar terms have changed, and the grandmother is not feeling well, so you can honor the grandmother." ”

If you don't get excited, if the prince asks them to try Dan on a whim, it will be a cup.

Seeing that the prince seemed to be reluctant to give up the meaning of the pill, and the number of pills was not much, the Taoist idiot hurriedly raised the filial piety out with great righteousness.

Hearing him say this, before the prince could react, Lu Bing began to be entangled.

Dao idiot, there is only one elder in the family, and his parents are both, which one is filial piety in this pill?

The prince himself is a very filial person, and he is very satisfied with the first thing he hears about filial piety, and he is already thinking about how to divide the remaining seven Qi Pills.

Lu Bing's face was full of confusion, and he carefully held the pill pill and said, "Your Highness, can this pill be divided into two halves?" ”

Shizi nodded and said, "Use silver and jade to separate, don't use iron." ”

The Taoist idiot is thinking about how to persuade the prince to give up dansha alchemy, but the history of Taoism that has been handed down in China for more than 1,000 years uses dansha, and his empty mouth and white teeth are too unconvincing.

If you don't enter the tiger's den, how can you get the tiger?

The Dao idiot thought about it for a while, and his face became more and more curious and yearning, as if he was fascinated by alchemy.

Seeing that the two of them were impressed by their "alchemy", the prince was very nervous, but when he thought of the princess, he said with a little helplessness: "Dan Dao's father is passed on, and his mother is disgusted, how can I be alone?" ”

Today's alchemy is to make the people around him come over without telling the princess. If there are many times in the future, it will always reach the ears of the princess.

Lu Bing frowned and said, "What can I do then?" His Royal Highness is always not good at upsetting the princess. ”

Dao Idiot pondered for a while, and said: "The princess doesn't like Dan Dao, and she doesn't know why it's wonderful, so Your Highness can slowly figure it out." When the princess sees the magic of the pill with her own eyes, she will no longer stop His Highness. ”

When he said this, he thought of the princess in his heart.

However, the temper of the son of the world, filial piety is again, and the word can not be talked about. In addition, Shizi is fourteen years old this year, which is the period of rebellion. The more the princess stopped the alchemy, the more he was afraid that he would have to indulge in this.

Shizi listened to the words of the Taoist idiot, picked up a pill and said, "See it with your own eyes? Looking for someone to try Dan to show your mother? But many pills are things that nourish qi, what can you see? ”

Dao idiot thought for a while, and said, "Your Highness, is there any Dan Fang that can give birth to white bones and live dead after being corroborated by predecessors?" Even if it's not so magical, it can have a special effect on a certain disease. If that kind of pill is refined, won't it be able to witness it to the princess? ”

The prince listened and fell into deep thought.

The Danfang on this side of the Danfang is collected by the prince for more than 20 years. However, when it comes to the Dan Pill mentioned by the Dao idiot that can be seen with the naked eye, there are many Dan Fang mentioned, but Shizi has not seen it.

Lu Bing listened to the pill and remembered what the two of them had just said in the storage room, and then said, "Your Highness, what Second Brother Wang said is exactly. The reason why the princess doesn't like His Royal Highness's alchemy is that she feels that the Taoist Inner and Outer Dan is ethereal, and she doesn't want Her Highness to be obsessed with it. If the princess saw it with her own eyes, the alchemy pill that Her Royal Highness had made was a really good thing, and there would be no reason to stop it. ”

Shizi was quite moved, nodded, and said, "Okay, starting tomorrow, I will try to find a curative pill." ”

It took three hours for this furnace to come down, and if the second furnace was refined, it would be night.

Shizi "got off to a good start", he was already satisfied, got up and said: "Go back first, and then accompany Gu Alchemy tomorrow afternoon." Speaking of this, he looked at the clothes of the two and said, "This dress was changed from the Qiyun Palace, and it was worn to the front, and it was a little swaggering." ”

Dao idiot and Lu Bing got up and responded.

Shizi glanced at the idiot again and said, "This Danmaru Erlang will be put away first, and the others don't need to tell them for the time being." After waiting for more alchemy in the future, it is not too late to know. Although it is nothing, it is not good to suffer from inequality, and it is not good for them to think too much. ”

The Taoist idiot bowed down, solemnly put the pill into the purse, and put the purse close to his body.

Shizi shook his head and smiled: "It's not a good pill, why is it so?" In the future, I will refine myself into a good pill and share it with you, and it will not ......be too late for you to be a baby."

Several people laughed, left the Danfang, returned the same way, and returned to the Qiyun Palace, Dao Idiot and Lu Bing went to the side hall to change their clothes and go back separately.

Before the two parted ways, the Taoist idiot whispered to Lu Bing: "The book says that alchemy has erysipelas. This pill is still ready to be tried in the future before entering. ”

Lu Bing was surprised: "Is that really the case? ”

The Taoist idiot said: "I read few Taoist books earlier, and I forgot where to remember this sentence." Since His Royal Highness likes alchemy, let's read more Taoist books in the future, and we must always read it clearly, and it is better to accompany the prince to alchemy. ”

Lu Bing is a person who doesn't like to read, and when he heard this, he hurriedly said: "Good second brother, dear second brother, this job of checking the classics belongs to the second brother, I am really impatient with this." ”

The Taoist idiot said: "I can check it out, but my family cultivates and reads heirlooms, mostly Confucian books, Taoist books, and I have to help me change them." ”

Lu Bing nodded and said, "Okay, I'll look for a book." The prince is good, up and down, this house is really not bad Taoist books, I will find it for the second brother when I go back today, and bring it to the second brother tomorrow morning......"
