Chapter 637: Finding Mercury Mine
"Since you say so, then what can you do so that I can get mercury?" Fang Hong smiled, wanting to hear this person's thoughts.
"Young master, I have heard people say that this mercury can not only be practiced, but also underground, as long as you can find a mercury mine, directly extract the mercury, and then burn it in a sealed pot over high heat, you can quickly get mercury. This subordinate told Fang Hong what he knew.
"Is there a mercury mine underground?" Fang Hong was a little stunned, he didn't know about this, he had always thought that mercury was refined by Taoist priests.
"Yes, but it's not easy to find the mercury mine, maybe we can ask the merchants of Taiyuan City, they may know some news. Seeing that Fang Hong seemed to be a little unconvinced, the next person nodded affirmatively.
"Alright, you go down and get busy first. In the future, the things on the list will be purchased as usual, and the silver will not be enough, tell me. Fang Hong waved his hand, wanting to let this person go down.
"By the way, in the afternoon, you prepare a carriage, and we will go out of town. Before the man left, Fang Hong stopped the other party and added. The subordinate answered, and walked briskly.
It turns out that this mercury is also natural, so it is much more convenient. Others were still worried about the fact that this mercury mine was hard to find, but here in Fang Hong, it was not a problem.
After this person left, Fang Hong's thoughts instantly expanded and went in all directions. His flesh is as calm as a mountain, true as immovable, and the inner evolution of the heavenly court, while his divine body sits cross-legged in the middle, as if he is the master of this world.
His thoughts poured out, and every thought turned into the appearance of a god. Their appearance is really strange, some of them have the body of an eagle head and a tiger, with two wings on their backs, some look like a human form, but they give birth to three heads and six arms, and some of the gods, turning into the appearance of a graceful goddess, the sky is full of flowers, and the lotus is born step by step, as if entering the heavenly realm.
Fang Hong himself became the Emperor of Heaven, and all his thoughts turned into gods. These thoughts have already initially taken on the appearance of gods, but they are not enough, they have truly cultivated to the depths, and every god has become a real life, at that time, Fang Hong will have an endless incarnation, as long as there is a trace of thought escaping, he can be immortal and immortal.
These deities are centered on Taiyuan and go in all directions. Fang Hong planned to look for a mercury mine, as long as he could find one, he would be able to save a lot of money in the future.
After leaving Taiyuan City, all the gods disappeared into the earth. It stands to reason that these thoughts are formless and substantial, just a piece of spiritual power, and they should not be bound by the earth. But in fact, after Fang Hong's thoughts escaped into the earth, his speed suddenly slowed down, and it was like an ordinary person falling into a quagmire.
Heaven and earth are supreme. There is a gang in the sky, and there is a evil in the center of the earth, and these two things are a great threat. Tiangang can reduce your spirit and blow out your will. The Earth Evil will defile your soul and null your Dao heart.
With Fang Hong's current strength, he only dared to walk within fifty zhang underground, and if he went any further, he couldn't stand the thought. Fortunately, such a deep distance was enough for Fang Hong.
Although his thoughts were blocked by the earth, Fang Hong's thoughts were still moving extremely fast, at least much faster than the speed of a bird's flight. He spent nearly two hours searching the boundaries of thousands of miles, but he didn't find a single hair.
"Could it be that this mercury mine is extremely rare, and it is difficult to find it in the territory of the Ming Dynasty?" Fang Hong frowned, even if the mercury mine is difficult to find, but this is inevitably too little, even his thoughts can't be searched, and ordinary people are even more difficult to find.
Fang Hong continued to expand the scope, he made a decision in his heart, if he couldn't find it again this time, then he could only go to those Taoist priests to buy mercury, or he could steal the method of refining mercury himself.
His thoughts expanded for nearly a hundred miles, and by this time, it was almost his limit. Many scenes have become blurred.
Just as he was about to give up, suddenly, his mind moved, and at the foot of a barren mountain, he found a familiar aura.
"Mercury?" Fang Hong's thoughts quickly gathered together, and after such a long time, he was finally found. This thing is really hard to find, and it was only in Tatar territory that traces were found.
It's just that when Fang Hong saw it clearly, he was a little dumbfounded. The so-called natural mercury, which is only the size of a washbasin, is in a reddish-brown rock.
He originally thought that the natural mercury mine would be like a great lake, and the mercury would be inexhaustible, and he could ask for it. I didn't expect to find such a little after looking for most of the day.
"What is this?" Fang Hong quickly turned his attention to the reddish-brown ore on the side, the texture of these ores was relatively loose, and it was harder than ordinary stones.
"It's kind of like cinnabar. He probed his thoughts into a piece of ore and came to a conclusion. Cinnabar is still relatively common, it can be used to draw talismans and write, and it can also be used as a medicinal material, and it is widely used by the people, and Fang Hong also knows it.
However, this cinnabar is of no use to him, and he doesn't need to use cinnabar to cultivate, no matter how large the quantity is, it is just a waste.
It took so much effort to find only such a small piece of mercury, which made Fang Hong have no intention of continuing to look for mercury mines. Because there is no mercury mine within thousands of miles here, even if mercury ore is found in a farther place, the transportation cost alone is a large sum, so it is better to find a Taoist priest to refine it.
"Young Master, the carriage is ready, it's time for us to go. In the afternoon, the servant came over again in the morning and said to Fang Hong.
Hearing this, Fang Hong slapped his head suddenly, he originally thought that with his magical powers, he could easily find the mercury mine near Taiyuan City, and he planned to go to the field to investigate. Who would have thought that only so little was found, and it was far away in Tatar, and the plan could only be nullified.
He was about to refuse, when suddenly something came to mind, "Okay, let's set off, go to Taipingguan, and find those Taoist priests to buy a method for refining mercury." ”
He was also annoyed by buying mercury every once in a while, so it was better to spend some money to buy the recipe directly, and find someone to refine it himself, as long as there was no shortage of mercury, his cultivation speed could also be accelerated.
The man answered, and led the way. The two of them left the Lin Mansion together, sat in a carriage, and quickly walked in the direction of Taipingguan.
