Chapter 122: Sequence 8 "Xiangshi" (Seeking the First Order)
I bought a set of experimental instruments such as heaters, crucibles, distillation flasks, measuring cylinders, droppers, etc. from the School of Biochemistry of Anhui University of Technology and went to the factory of Zhouyu Machinery, closed the door, closed the curtains, and Xiao Yi took a few deep breaths to calm his mind.
There was silence for a few more minutes, and it felt like I could start.
Xiangshi, sequence 8, has been waiting for a long time.
On the huge workbench, there are experimental instruments on one side and potions materials on the other.
Among them, the most eye-catching is a palm-sized turtle shell, the whole body is dark in color, but from time to time there is light flickering, if you deduce carefully, the light is flowing in the shape of the nine palace gossip.
This is the main ingredient of the "Xiangshi" potion.
The ancients believed that the sky was round, and the tortoise's back carapace was bulging like the sky, and the belly carapace was flat, like the earth, and the tortoise seemed to carry the heaven and the earth. Therefore, the turtle is considered to be a spiritual creature that can know astronomy and geography, and the turtle shell is used to predict the rise and fall of existence and death, as a mascot for divining evil and asking for good fortune.
During the Yin Shang period, the emperor's diviner used a charcoal fire to grill the tortoise shell, and according to the cracks of the tortoise shell, he divined the emperor's fortune divination for the emperor, predicting state affairs, wars, weather, disasters, etc. The origin of the word "Bu" is because after the fire burns the turtle shell, it is easy to have cracks like the word "Bu", and the scholars use these cracks to predict the destiny of heaven.
Legend has it that the inspiration for the pattern of Bagua also comes from the tortoiseshell pattern of the tortoise.
The use of the spirit tortoise shell as the main material of the "Xiangshi" potion, the reason is exactly this.
Next to the turtle shell was a small glass vial, in which a small pinch of white-gray powder was in it, and in the sealed environment, the powder actually flew up from time to time, as if something was blowing them.
Slowly unscrewing the cap of the glass bottle, suddenly, a mysterious and strange sound came from the vial.
Hahaha......
It's cheerful laughter.
Woowoo......
It was a low cry that overflowed from the throat......
After all, it is the soul ashes after the death of the ghost, which is very weird.
With the vial as the center, illusory laughter and weird cries are intertwined, and ordinary people will be creepy and send chills down their spines when they hear it.
But for the awakened, this is nothing, I saw Xiao Yi quickly pour the gray-white powder carefully on the weighing paper of the electronic balance, and even saw a little gray floating in the air, transforming into the appearance of a skull.
A complete piece of spirit tortoise tortoise shell, 0.1 grams of dust after the death of the soul, and the main materials of the "Xiangshi" potion are complete!
Xiao Yi's slightly invisible jaw quickly opened the attribute panel, and then brought up the sub-page of the potion.
"100 ml of pure water, 1 gram of patina of the last copper coin, 7 drops of the user's blood, 3 new shoots of old trees that have been struck by lightning......" Xiao Yi looked at the formula, and then went through the detailed configuration process in his mind, this process he had recalled many times these days, in his current memory, there was no possibility of mistakes, but he still demonstrated it again in his mind.
After all, the turtle shell of this spirit turtle can't get a second piece in a short period of time, so there is no room for mistakes.
He took a breath and exhaled slowly.
Do it!
Pure water, that is, distilled water, has already been made.
But it was cautious to distill it again.
The instruments were also cleaned with distilled water.
After all, I have been in the School of Biochemistry for four years, and although I have always been a scumbag, this experiment is not less.
Therefore, Xiao Yi methodically and skillfully began to prepare potions according to the prompts.
1 gram of patina was added to the distilled water in turn, 7 drops of blood were dripped from the pierced index finger, 3 new shoots of the old tree struck by lightning, and heated in a water bath. The water in the water bath was already boiling, and even the distilled water in the flask began to bubble slightly, and no significant change in the liquid in the flask was noted, as there was no catalysis from the extraordinary material.
After boiling for nearly 10 minutes, Xiao Yi also grinded the spirit turtle shell into powder, carefully collected it, and said secretly in his heart: "It's finally the most critical time, the hand must be stable, the heart must be big, the luck must explode, do not seek immortals, do not seek Buddha, the black technology system bless me ......"
After calming down for a few seconds, Xiao Yi picked up the 0.1 grams of dust after the death of the soul and carefully poured it into the flask.
As soon as the strange dust touched the liquid, it immediately made a sizzling sound, as if it had fallen into hot oil, and in an instant, the laughter was gone, and the illusory cries around it became more and more sharp: Woo woo!
Xiao Yi didn't delay at all, and quickly poured all the freshly ground spirit turtle shell powder into the flask, his hand was very steady, and the mouth of the flask was not stained with a little powder.
Burst!
At the moment when the turtle shell powder was poured into the flask, the scalp-tingling cry suddenly disappeared, and the bits of ash floating around it quickly shrank into the flask.
Xiao Yi breathed a sigh of relief at this time, and looked down, only to see that the liquid inside was dyed with colorful colors, and they were intertwined with each other but extremely clear.
Whether it's all kinds of powders, patina, or tree buds, they all melt into the liquid in just a few seconds.
It's not scientific, but it's occult.
Grunt!
Colorful bubbles tumbled and surged up in the liquid, but they could not escape out, but could only shatter.
Gradually, the liquid in the flask became like liquid, like smoke, even if the light above the head was not very strong, but it still emitted a scorching light, which looked colorful and psychedelic, and at the same time, if you look closely, you can actually find that there seem to be countless tiny bubbles in it that are constantly living and dying, and even make people feel that life is also continuing in this continuous birth and death, which looks amazing.
And it tastes good......
Pinching the time, Xiao Yi quickly transferred the colorful liquid to a clean flask.
It is a potion that can make people achieve transcendence, and everything changes in an incomprehensible process, resulting in a mysterious reaction......
Otogawa raised his right hand and looked at the potion in his hand at the light, staring at the colorful and dreamy liquid.
It seems to have worked.
At least it seems to have worked.
Drink it, and I will be able to become a transcendent evolutionary in Sequence 8, that is, a "Xiangshi", and I will be able to control the power of destiny......
The thought flashed, Yi Xiaochuan pressed the impulse and used the "transcendent identification" to identify, there was no problem, no longer hesitated, raised the flask, raised his head slightly, and drank the potion.
Suddenly, Xiao Yi's face twitched.
What kind of fetters is this?
Is this what people drink?
Bitter!
It's bitter!
Ten times more bitter than yellow lotus and bitter gourd!
Everyone knows about Devil Fruits!
It is a fruit that can obtain certain superpowers after eating, and it is covered with spiral patterns from the skin to the flesh, which is mysterious and extraordinary.
This potion is just like the "Devil Fruit", it looks good on the outside, but it is actually unpalatable, worse than, and Xiao Yi only feels that his sense of taste has completely collapsed.
Not only is the tongue bitter, but the heart is even more bitter.
Tears.
This extreme negative emotion comes from nowhere, and it is very worrying.
People have their own sufferings.
There are the sufferings of life, old age, sickness, and death, and there are the sufferings of being poor and lowly, without food and clothing, and without food.
There is a desire for a thing in the heart, and it is bitter to ask for it, but it is even more bitter to be afraid of gaining it and losing it.
Also, love each other cannot be combined, love each other deeply but are not loved by the other party, or the person you love dies suddenly, so the suffering of life is the most tormenting, and the suffering is even more bitter!
Bitter bitter!
Since the world is a place where people live, it is natural that it is full of all kinds of suffering.
There is suffering in the world, countless and endless!
There is bitterness in my heart, it is overwhelming, and I am suffering from it!
The bitterness of the taste and the bitterness of the heart retreated slightly, and Yi Xiaochuan keenly found that his face was flushing and his body temperature was rising.
He was very sure that he was now like a hairy crab in a steamer, suffering from the baptism of potions, both physically and mentally.
In the closed room, the central air conditioner was blowing a cool breeze, and the thick curtains were drawn outside the window.
Otogawa sat cross-legged on the clean floor with his eyes closed, his expression calm.
But he was already sweating profusely, and he was already wetting the floor beneath him.
At the same time, mysterious whispers and shouts rang in his ears.
Piercing the pain of the soul and the torture attached to the body, the double whipping is on Otogawa's body.
This kind of mysterious babbling and shouting, even if you block your own ears, will not help. I heard hallucinations in my ears, like the roar of a car, like the murmuring of water, the sound of the wind, and like thousands of sparrows chirping in my ears, and the whole mind was always a chaos. Sometimes I feel like I'm back to a long time ago, the place called home, still lying in my mother's warm arms, sometimes I feel like I'm standing on the corner of the street, watching the hustle and bustle of traffic, and sometimes I feel like I'm fighting the murderer, the knife is cutting inch by inch on my body, cutting thousands of knives, and only bones are left.
An iron rod stirred in the brain, stirring from ancient times to the end of the world, stirring into a pot of porridge and sprinkling a handful of salt. Eventually, the mysterious whispers and shouts fell silent, and all illusions vanished.
Yi Xiaochuan opened his eyes blankly, his eyes were snow-white, his ears were buzzing, and his mind was empty. In a daze until a long time passed, his dull gaze still did not change, and even his pupils were gray-white, looking like a blind man.
Whew, suddenly let out a long sigh of relief.
At this time, he clearly knew that he had been promoted successfully, and he knew that he was the "Xiangshi" of Sequence 8.
Throughout the ages, who are the "Xiangshi"?
Yuan Tiangang in the early Tang Dynasty, Xiangshi also!
Legend has it that he is good at "wind appreciation", that is, depending on the sound of the wind and the direction of the wind, he can judge the good and the bad, and he is proficient in physiognomy, six and five elements. and Li Chunfeng co-staged the push back map, breaking the rise and fall of the national fortunes and the chaos and humanitarian changes in the three thousand years after the Tang Dynasty.
The mud bodhisattva in the "wind and clouds", the Xiangshi also!
Because of the prophecy of "Jin Lin is a thing in the pool, it will turn into a dragon when it encounters the wind and clouds" unveiled the prelude to the story of the wind and clouds, and the last two sentences of the prediction "The dragon of the Nine Heavens is shocking, and the wind and clouds will swim in shallow water", which also ruined the hegemony of the hero.
This is Xiangshi!
