Chapter 167: Catching the Toad

The best elixir, the second-grade Dan furnace, refining the first-grade upper-grade "Qi Gathering Pill", which is the weight that can refine a hundred, Lin Luoran finally received 35 pills.

It seems that there is only a 35% exit rate, but it is enough to make Lin Luoran happy.

This is her first alchemy, the Qi Gathering Pill can make the aura gather in the body and not disperse, which is most suitable for Lin Dad and Bao Jia, who are not even full of the initial stage of Qi cultivation, and can often absorb the aura, but they can't keep the aura of cultivation. Of course, for today's irritable aura cultivation environment, the peaceful and pure aura carried by the elixir itself is the most precious place.

One pill has a limited aura, but what about a hundred?

To refine such an elixir, it would take Lin Luoran two days. In this way, when exchanging, how much should be used as the base? Because it is a thousand-year-old shou wu, the medicinal effect is better than Lin Luoran expected, although she has not seen the previous "Qi Gathering Pill", but guess that there is twice the medicinal effect.

This is the reason why Lin Luoran is still very satisfied even though the Dan rate is not high. After all, this is her first alchemy, and there is still a long way to go, isn't it?

It's just that there is only one kind of Qi Gathering Pill, isn't there too little variety...... Lin Luoran set his sights on another elixir. It is the second-grade "Xiao Huan Dan", which is different from the Qi Gathering Pill, which focuses on the healing effect.

It is naturally useless to treat Guo Lao's old injuries, but if it is used by monks who have not yet built a foundation, it is not impossible to pull back a life from the Ghost Gate. There are not many Qi Gathering Pills that can be used for a long time, and "Xiaohuandan" should sell well.

But there is a medicine in Xiao Huandan, which is not a spiritual herb, nor an ordinary Chinese herbal medicine, but a toad crisp, but Lin Luoran needs to collect it himself.

What is recorded in the Danfang is "bitter oyster liquid", and Lin Luoran checked the information and knew that it was toad. Bitter beetle, originally another name for the toad. It's summer, and the most important thing in the Qingcheng Mountains should be frogs like toads, right?

When Lin Luoran arrived at night, she quietly carried a small basket, brought a glass bottle and changed her long clothes and trousers, and saw that Lin Dad was almost the same dress, standing at the gate of the villa waiting for her.

"I guess you're going to go secretly, what's the matter, dislike your father's old bones?"

said that Lin Luoran's little face was slightly red, and then his young father, in Lin Luoran's memory, it was always him and Lin's mother who were tired and white in order to study for themselves. At that time, she was incompetent, and now she naturally hopes that her parents can live a leisurely life every day...... However, looking at Dad Lin's blaming eyes, Lin Luoran couldn't help but reflect on whether he had gone too far.

In the past, Dad Lin often collected medicine for his livelihood, and he would not be a stranger to Toad Crisp, so it was better to go with his father, even if the speed was slower, but it made Dad Lin also have a sense of accomplishment of "I am useful", wouldn't it be better?

The father and daughter were bathed in the starlight, each carrying a basket on their backs, and entered the back mountain.

The moonlight is good tonight, and Lin Luoran can actually distinguish things clearly on the mountain path, but Dad Lin intimately brought a firewood knife and a flashlight. Watching Dad Lin cut down weeds and dead branches with a firewood knife in front to open the way, he seemed to forget that his daughter is now a capable monk, but a young child who needs his protection - when she was a child, she often followed Dad Lin up the mountain like this during the summer vacation, so Lin Luoran did not say that she used spells or anything like that, she did not show off her skills, but meekly followed Dad Lin, and on this night she turned back into the little girl who needed her father's protection.

"Girl, look!" Dad Lin suddenly stopped, pointed to the bottom of a pine tree and said.

Under the light of the flashlight, on the ground covered with thick pine needles, there are some umbrella-shaped mushrooms growing sporadically, brown with a hint of red, in a half-open state - "It's a pine umbrella!" ”

Even Lin Luoran, who is now, couldn't help but exhale softly. The pine umbrella is a kind of wild mushroom that grows in the pine forest, the taste is particularly delicious, Lijia Village is backed by the mountain, Lin Luoran knows a lot of wild mushrooms, but this kind of pine umbrella, she has only picked two or three times at home since she can remember, because it is scarce and more delicious, Lin Luoran has a deep impression of it, and after going to college, I also went to check the information, only to know that the original scientific name of this thing is "blood red rivet mushroom", which is one of the specialties of Changbai Mountain, no wonder it is rare in Shu.

"It's still Dad's vision!" Lin Luoran was happy to pick mushrooms, and at the same time patted a little fart, telling Dad Lin that although he would not shake his head, he was obviously very proud when he saw his expression!

There was only a small pile, which was put in a back basket and just filled the bottom, Lin Luoran was unwilling to search this pine forest again, the pine umbrella was not found, but he found some "horse ears" similar to black fungus, which were edible anyway, and they were all looted!

Dad Lin looked at his daughter with bright eyes, shook his head helplessly, since Lin Luoran was a child, he loved to follow him into the mountains, he always felt that his daughter, usually don't like to talk, once he arrived in the mountains, it was fun to watch everything, and he was really talented in finding medicinal materials to eat...... Finding food is also a talent? Dad Lin hesitated for a while, and decisively added this "advantage" to his daughter.

The father and daughter walked and stopped like this, tossing and turning until midnight, only to find a puddle, and when they heard the sound of frogs, Lin Luoran and Lin Dad laughed - this is it!

There are still some skills in catching toads, and it is naturally not possible to jump into a puddle and do it. At night, when frogs and toads eat, they generally hide in the water and grass on the shore to catch insects and eat, at this time, as long as you walk along the small pond, where you hear the sound of frogs, you suddenly shine with a flashlight-

Most of the frogs will suddenly fall stupid, lie motionless in the grass, and quickly grab them and throw them into the bag. The difference between the sound of a toad and a frog, Lin Luoran couldn't hear it when he was a child, but Lin's father was an expert, obviously it was a similar sound, and where his flashlight shone, most of the people lying on his stomach were a toad.

Dad Lin is responsible for catching the toad, and Lin Luoran was divided by Dad Lin to take the toad liquid, as for the toad? That's the Chinese patent medicine processed from toad liquid.

Lin Luoran has been doing this kind of work since he was a child, but compared to when he was a child, he is now a monk in the foundation building period, isn't he? Washing toads is such a thing, and finally there is no need to catch the sticky and ugly toad in person, a water-based spell will quickly wash a basket of toads clean.

The thumb was placed on the neck of the toad, the rest of the fingers grabbed its body, and then a copper tweezer was used to pick up the gland behind the ear, and soon the white pulp juice would overflow, and Lin Luoran felt that he was catching the white pulp with the glass bottle prepared in advance.

It is not necessary to kill the toad liquid to take it, Lin Luoran who has taken it is all put aside in the basket, ready to be released together at the end. In this way, she and Dad Lin grabbed one by one, and took the liquid one by one, and in less than an hour, there were a lot of toad liquids in the glass bottle, but Dad Lin grabbed hundreds of them before they were filled.

"Dad, that's enough!"

The toad in the nearby pond had almost been caught, and seeing Dad Lin's figure walking farther and farther away in the night, Lin Luoran hurriedly beckoned him back.

Dad Lin shook the light of the flashlight, and Lin Luoran beckoned again and again: "It's really enough, let's go back!" Lin Luoran saw that his pants were almost wet, and said angrily: "I knew that I was going to catch it, why did you still go into the water." ”

Dad Lin waved his hand: "What is this, now your dad is very powerful, what is it to catch two toads!" Lin Luoran pursed her lips and smiled, and released the toads who had taken the toad liquid, but she still quietly dried Lin's father's pants before leaving.

When the two of them returned to the Lin family's villa, the sky was already slightly bright.

Others don't say it, at least Mother Lin has already gotten up, opened the door and saw the dewy father and daughter standing at the door, rubbing her eyes: "Where did you two go so early?" ”

Dad Lin raised his right hand and shook it in front of Mama Lin's eyes, it was two fat hares, which were caught by the way back by the way. Who doesn't love game? Mother Lin raised her eyebrows: "Okay, the father and daughter quietly entered the mountain, right?" ”

Dad Lin scratched his head, Lin Luoran slipped into the door early, leaving the nagging Mother Lin to the honest Dad Lin to deal with - for so many years, the two people with different personalities naturally have their own way of getting along, why should she, who is a daughter, be a light bulb?

Not to mention that the Lin family had delicious rabbit meat and wild mushrooms at noon, and even Wang Miao'e and his wife came to eat again, Lin Luoran was also very fast in extracting toad crisp with toad liquid because he was a cultivator.

By the next night, the medicinal materials she had refined for "Xiao Huandan" were also ready.

Mother Lin specially fed her daughter to her heart's content, and only then did she allow her to enter the basement that was used as a temporary Dan room.

This refining took two days and two nights.

Lin Luoran looked at the 20 "Little Returning Pills" lying in the jade box, and was so tired that he wanted to do it, and finally the child lost his temper, and thought hatefully: I have to set the price of these pills a little higher to be worthy of her hard work!
