Chapter Twenty-Six: A Song of Condolence
Chapter 26: A Song of Condolence
The snowflakes in the air are falling, fluttering and sprinkling, people can't help but want to add a few more clothes to resist the cold, but the oriental sun is shining, shining brightly, directly hitting the earth, the snowflakes do not care, they still fall on their own, and then accumulate on the ground, such a peculiar picture only covers a radius of ten miles, but it seems to affect the whole world.
The old man's face was serious, unmoved by the wonder of the clear sky and snow, and took out a jade slip from his arms, which was used to store important and large amounts of information, "You memorize the characteristics of each medicine plant in the medicine field, the parts used, and the method of picking, I will breathe for half an hour, and then start alchemy." The old man seemed to be uneasy, and said again, "Be serious, maybe you will have to do this kind of thing often in the future." ”
After speaking, the old man glanced at Ling Yu with a smile, and sat cross-legged in front of Da Ding.
Ling Yu didn't care, but he got serious, threw away all the restraints, and used all his thoughts on memory, a wisp of aura entered the jade slip through Ling Yu's palm, and then a large amount of information poured in, seeing such a large amount of information, although Ling Yu was prepared, he also took a deep breath of cold air.
"Come on, one plant at a time. Ling Yu moved, he wanted to grasp every moment, "Let's start with you first!"
In front of Ling Yu is a plant with two leaves, the leaf veins are clearly visible, and you can faintly see the flow of medicinal liquid in the leaf veins, "The two-leaf associated grass has two leaves, but there are differences, one yin and one yang, the vein of the Chinese medicine liquid swirls and flows for yin, and the straight flow is yang, and the yin leaves are wrapped in aura and can be picked in the palm, so as to avoid the loss of the liquid medicine, the yang leaves need to be burned into a liquid medicine by flame and then wrapped in aura to be preserved, leaving the rhizome to regenerate after a hundred years." ”
The more Ling Yu looked at it, the more frightened he became, just the most common "two-leaf associated grass" in this medicine field had such a cumbersome introduction and picking method, and it was also necessary to identify the flow trend of the medicinal solution, which was not something that a human could accomplish at all.
But Ling Yu didn't give up because of this, he didn't want to be an escapist person, on the contrary, he hoped that such a test would be more difficult, otherwise life would be much less fun.
"Second ......" Ling Yu looked at the strange elixir in front of him, the bright red torso, although it was only half a person tall, gave birth to more than twenty blood-colored children's fist-sized fruits, the most peculiar thing was that the whole tree did not have a single leaf, "Leafless Blood Fruit!"
"It is extremely poisonous, it must be wrapped in a strong aura and picked, and only one can be picked at a time, and the color is the most vivid!"
Ling Yu chuckled in his heart, the skin of the twenty fruits in front of him was bright red and smooth, and there was no difference in color at all......
"No, the color here is not the skin, but the internal ......" Thinking of this, Ling Yu squatted down and lay on the ground, and the sunlight passed through the "Leafless Blood Fruit" Ling Yu smiled slightly, "Sure enough, that's the case! It turned out to be you little guy......" Ling Yu stood up, remembered the location of the fruit, and walked towards the next elixir.
The shock in Ling Yu's heart was already indescribable, he didn't expect alchemy to be so difficult at all, I'm afraid it's not easy to get started, and there are thousands of elixirs in this world, and even new varieties of elixirs appear every moment...... It's really profound!
Ling Yu thought that his memory was very good, he clearly remembered the location of each spirit stone in the Spirit Gathering Array laid by the pheasant, but he couldn't achieve the purpose of gathering the Spirit no matter what, maybe Ling Yu didn't know the essence of it, thinking about the child who ran away when he saw him, he smiled bitterly in his heart, could he have no chance with the formation in his life?
The medicine garden is not big, it is only about twenty plants, Ling Yu finally wrote them all down with his super memory, and there was still time to review it once, after it was completely correct, Ling Yu sat cross-legged and continued to consolidate his memory.
There are tens of millions of elixirs recorded in the jade slips, including many heavenly spirit fruits, yellow spring grass, grass fruits, etc., which make many powerful people go bankrupt to find life-prolonging things, and it is also a record of the legendary elixir ghost face flower, although there is no detailed record, not even the appearance, but its "immortal dies when he hears it" six words are enough to shock Ling Yu, the immortal is a legendary figure, such a character can not resist the medicinal effect of the grimace flower, enough to see its magic, but the jade slip does not record the appearance of the grimace flower...... I'm afraid the old man hasn't seen it himself.
Half an hour was a very short time for a cultivator, Ling Yu's mind was calm, without half a minute of fluctuation, and he devoted all his thoughts to the elixir.
"Are you ready?"
The old man didn't know when he stood up, the whole person stood in front of the big ding, his body was no longer rickety, the whole person looked a lot younger and taller, Ling Yu was shocked, at this moment the old man gave him the feeling that it was even more powerful than the dragon, and faintly it was perfectly integrated with the surrounding avenue, as if the power of the whole world could be mobilized between the hands.
"Ready!"
Ling Yu stood up, his eyes were full of seriousness, and the old man glanced at Ling Yu, his face was full of seriousness and unfazed.
"Three geocentric flowers, one geocentric flower leaf, half a spirit swallowing fruit, two leaves associated with grass shade leaves, green spirit fruit peeled ......"
The old man's series of medicine names, quantities and treatment methods were reported one after another, Ling Yu's subordinates did not dare to slack off, this was a challenge for Ling Yu, not to mention the complexity of various elixirs, just turning the aura into tangible and qualitative things was enough to give Ling Yu a huge burden, and he had to manipulate multiple aura at the same time, otherwise he would not be able to catch up with the old man's speed at all, it could be said that this was a test, and it was also an opportunity to increase Ling Yu's ability to control the aura......
Ling Yu's five fingers came out, each finger exuded an independent aura, and then scattered in the medicine garden, each wisp of aura has its own task, that is to say, Ling Yu has to divide his attention into five parts at the same time, constantly control the operation of the aura, and can not make any mistakes, this is not the first time Ling Yu has done such a thing, he has been able to do three things when he was chased by the mammoth, and it is still a state of semi-sleep, now Ling Yu's consciousness is unprecedentedly awake and serious, despite this, Ling Yu's forehead is still sweaty.
The old man didn't seem to see these at all, one hand kept taking the elixir handed to him by Ling Yu, and the other hand burned with a two-color flame, Ling Yu understood that this was the combination of the earth fire and the sky fire in front of the house, after all, no alchemist would carry the flame with him, but separated a wisp of flame into his body, and took it out when he needed it, besides, the earth fire and the sky fire had already given birth to spiritual wisdom, if you want to take him, he still doesn't want to!
The old man still reported all kinds of elixirs in his mouth, and even some were repeated, but the picking method and the refining method were different, Ling Yu's forehead was sweating non-stop, in order to keep up with the old man's speed, he even opened his fingers, which was very difficult for him, but Ling Yu kept gritting his teeth and insisting!
Finally, the old man stopped talking, the dozens of elixirs in front of him were turned into liquid medicine under the refining of the two-color flame and stayed in front of him, the old man's eyes were solemn, this would be the rare and most important alchemy in his life, so he had to be extra careful to control the medicinal effect of the elixir, and to refine it to the extreme to reduce the unnecessary impurities in the elixir.
Ling Yu was as if he had gone through a big battle at this moment, and he was physically and mentally exhausted!
"Tired, this is just the beginning!" After speaking, the old man's eyes moved, and a bunch of jade boxes appeared in front of Ling Yu's body, the corners of Ling Yu's mouth twitched, and these jade boxes contained all kinds of elixirs, "You still have half an hour!"
The old man's eyes never left the liquid medicine in front of him, his palms turned, the flames were strong and weak, and the essence was constantly refined.
Ling Yu looked at the hundreds of jade boxes in front of him, gritted his teeth fiercely, and immediately began to remember!
What made Ling Yu relieved was that the elixirs in these jade boxes were not complicated, they were all relatively common elixirs, but there were a lot of them, there were one hundred and eighty-eight!
Ling Yu was really going crazy, these elixirs looked very ordinary, but there were many similar existences, such as the two plants that Ling Yu was carefully identifying in front of him, one with dense rhizomes and oval leaves, with serrated edges, a total of six leaves, and the flowers were light blue! Then the other one, at first glance, the two were exactly the same, but Ling Yu knew that they were different, one leaf had a more rounded tooth, but the other was as sharp as a sharp blade, if it wasn't for the clear explanation of the identification method in the jade slip, if Ling Yu himself could distinguish it, even after a few months, these two plants would still be exactly the same in Ling Yu's eyes, and the names of these two plants were almost the same, one was called Blue Fennel, and the other was called Blue Heart Flower......
Ling Yu complained bitterly in his heart, this was simply inhuman treatment, and he couldn't help but feel that Ling Yu's admiration for the alchemist in his heart was like a surging river, flowing from west to east, flowing for three thousand miles!
In half an hour, Ling Yu's heart was broken, these elixirs were arranged and scattered by him in a certain order, although Ling Yu was already sure in his heart, but he had to take time to recover his spirit, otherwise it was estimated that Ling Yu would faint before he was halfway through, you must know that fainting is impossible for a cultivator, not to mention this kind of exhaustion fainting, it is even more impossible, but Ling Yu is likely to become the first person who has never been seen before or since, but Ling Yu has confidence in his heart, his belief is infinitely powerful, as long as he has faith, then even if he faces absolute death, there is also the possibility of escaping!
"Golden vein leaves, void vines, tiger vines, half-moon flowers, quicksand grass, eight-pole fruit ......"
As soon as Ling Yu recovered a little, the voice of the old man came from his ears, and Ling Yu did not dare to slack off and immediately handed over those elixirs to the old man.
The old man didn't look at Ling Yu's tired appearance at the moment, now that the alchemy had entered the second stage, the medicinal properties of these elixirs were mainly used to alleviate the fierceness of the first few herbs, and as the introduction to the last three herbs.
Although Ling Yu is physically and mentally exhausted, he is meticulous in his work, focusing his mind on twelve points, not letting himself make mistakes, this is also a kind of cultivation, although he doesn't know what he will cultivate in the end, but only exercising willpower is enough to benefit him a lot in the future, cultivators don't have a great will, how to do it against the sky!
A full hundred and eighty-eight flavors of elixir, the old man received all of them, each medicinal herb in the old man's hands will turn into a liquid medicine and continue to roll, every tremor of the old man's fingers changes the temperature of the flame, when the one hundred and eighty-eight flavors of elixir are all melted into liquid, two balls of liquid medicine appear in the old man's hands.
"Half an hour, the last three flavors. ”
The old man looked at him again, and three blood-red jade boxes appeared in front of Ling Yu, Ling Yu was not surprised, after all, the strength of the old man had long been unpredictable, and there were some legendary "things in the sleeve" and "world in the palm" It is not surprising that such a secret method is not surprising, but the three jade boxes in front of Ling Yu made Ling Yu's eyes light up, such a jade box is probably not an ordinary jade box, faintly emitting a strange energy fluctuation, Ling Yu looked at the jade box as if he had seen a strange beast, he was puzzled for a while, and then he was relieved, this kind of thing has no substantive effect on him, probably only the alchemist will use it to seal the elixir, elixir and the like.
The first jade box, Ling Yu opened, and a faint fragrance instantly diffused, "This! This! This is the ...... of the Star Fruit."
Ling Yu stammered in surprise, in the jade slip given by the old man, there was an introduction to the star fruit, born on the top of the mountain, absorbing the power of the stars for thousands of years, ripening a fruit, like a star, with a strange fragrance......
The limit of a cultivator's life is a thousand years, and it will take a thousand years for this fruit to ripen once, so Ling Yu can't help but be shocked, he is only close to thirteen years old now, and the difference between this thousand years is not very far, Ling Yu can't help but be shocked by the elixir that the old man has practiced.
As soon as the second jade box was opened, a cold air emerged, Ling Yu couldn't help but shiver, and the temperature around him instantly dropped a lot, "Oh my God! This is the Tianshan Snow Lotus! How many years have I counted?"
Tianshan Snow Lotus and Xingchen Fruit both grow on the top of the high mountain, but Tianshan Snow Lotus is said to only exist on the top of the legendary Tianshan Mountain, where there are known as the forbidden area of life, the climate is harsh and abnormal, and the extremely low temperature will make every practitioner's spiritual energy stagnate, not to mention what spiritual energy is used to protect the body, and the aura on the mountain that day is almost negligible, because the spiritual energy has also turned into ice crystals and is sealed under the earth, so in that place is not at all a place where cultivators can go, not to mention that there are all kinds of spiritual beasts that adapt to the climate......
Ling Yu was already speechless in shock at this time, although these two elixirs did not give birth to spiritual intelligence, and did not know how to attack and protect, but just the characteristics they faintly emitted were enough for him to dare not touch the slightest, especially the cold qi emitted by the Snow Lotus of the Heavenly Mountain, Ling Yu had already faintly felt that his spiritual energy had become clumsy and did not run smoothly in his body......
The third jade box, Ling Yu opened it carefully, there was only a small petal inside, dotted with black markings, compared to Xingchen Fruit and Tianshan Snow Lotus, this petal is too ordinary, it can even be said that it has no characteristics at all, it is even more ordinary than ordinary flowers and plants.
But Ling Yu would definitely not take this lightly, if it was really an ordinary flower and plant, an alchemist like the old man would disdain to use it, let alone use this precious blood-colored jade box!
"Grandpa, I don't dare to touch these three things!
The old man didn't have the idea of letting Ling Yu deal with the last three flavors of the main medicine, he just hoped that Ling Yu could increase his knowledge, as for the last petal, the old man would not tell Ling Yu what it was, once he told Ling Yu, I was afraid that it would make his jaw drop, and that petal was the most precious medicinal material in the old man's life, from the moment he got it, the old man had already set it as one of the main medicines of the pill he was refining today.
"You go to the front of the house, and then I'll do it myself!"
The old man slowly wrapped the medicinal liquid in his hand with aura, and then sent it to the big ding, the big ding flashed a ghostly light, and then the flame in the old man's palm came to the bottom of the big ding, and the third step of alchemy was about to begin.
Ling Yu leaned over and bowed, he knew that he was completely a burden here, I am afraid that the old man with more than two hundred flavors of medicine before had deliberately slowed down, otherwise how could Ling Yu, a rookie, keep up, Ling Yu's respect for the old man was already beyond words.
After Ling Yu left, the old man's body was shocked, just like a human being, he vomited blood, but his mind turned into a form, and it was impossible to vomit blood, but his body was blurry for a while, and it didn't slowly recover until it took a while.
"It seems that it's going to hurry up, people are really useless. ”
The old man's eyes still returned to a serious and cautious state, and with a wave of his hand, the three jade boxes flew in front of the old man, and then the star fruit and the Tianshan Snow Lotus flew out together, and with the control of the old man, they continued to blend on the top of the big ding, as if two people were dancing, constantly rotating and swinging on the big ding, and then slowly fused together.
"The Xingchen Fruit is full of yang energy, and the Tianshan Snow Lotus has more than yin energy, and making up for each other can promote the medicinal properties to the extreme. After saying that, the medicinal liquid formed by the fusion of the Star Fruit and the Tianshan Snow Lotus was contained in the Dingzhong, and at this moment, there were already three pill-like medicinal liquids in the Great Ding, which were constantly tumbling.
"The last petal can counteract the fire poison and poison in the elixir with poison, making this elixir a real miracle elixir without any side effects!"
This is the petals that the old man has collected for many years, and it actually has the characteristics that the alchemists in the world have pursued all their lives, completely eliminating the negative effects of the elixir, and the elixir refined in this way can no longer be called an elixir, but a "dan"!
The old man threw the petals into the big ding, and it was instantly warmed and turned into a small drop of black liquid, which rose and fell in the big ding with the other three drops......
The old man closed his eyes and slowly adjusted his state, and then came the fourth step, the most important step in refining this elixir!
By the time the old man opened his eyes again, a quarter of an hour had passed, but the medicinal liquid in the Great Ding did not show any signs of volatilization, which was enough to see the old man's strong control over the flames.
The old man stretched out the palm of his left hand, and then the momentum of his whole body suddenly dispersed, and an invisible wave swept through the entire medicine field, and then hit the formation on the edge of the medicine field, slowly dissipating.
I saw that many golden words and strange runes suddenly appeared in the palm of the old man's left hand, mixed with aura with a strange aura.
All kinds of strange golden words gathered together, faintly turned into a golden elixir, if Ling Yu was still here, his worldview would definitely be refreshed again, this is simply a divine skill, out of thin air, gratuitous, without the help of any foreign objects, it can actually refine a pill, and just by looking at it, people have the illusion that they are deeply trapped in it, as if this elixir condenses the rules of the whole world......
After a full hour, the golden words began to stop slowly, and the golden elixir gradually became the size of an egg, constantly rotating in the palm of the old man's hand, and each rotation contained a unique mystery.
The old man looked at this pill and smiled, this is the only pill in the world that belongs to him!
At this point, only the final step of the final formation of the pill remains.
"Condensation!"
The golden elixir in the old man's hand came to the big ding, surrounded by four drops of medicinal liquid, the four drops of liquid medicine seemed to have the wisdom to see delicious food, and wanted to rush forward to devour it, with the old man's "condensation" word exit, the last step of the elixir began!
Ling Yu before the grass house has not been able to calm down and cultivate, and the same is true of tomatoes, as if something bad is about to happen.
The snow in the sky was getting heavier and heavier, obscuring the sky and the sun, and the light of the sun star was obscured by the heavy snow.
In the secret realm of Bagua, in a very ordinary blacksmith shop in "Hexagram" City, a tall and muscular man is holding a sledgehammer and constantly beating the unformed blade in front of him.
Suddenly, as if he had a feeling, the man's eyes were full of disbelief, and he looked at the depths of the secret realm with a bitter face......
"Hey! Master's weapon, you should fight quickly! If you fight well, Master will be rewarded!"
A young man in a jade robe with gold thread and brocade said to the man, looking arrogant and domineering.
"No business today......"
The man put away his sledgehammer and withdrew from the fire, ready to close the door.
The young man naturally wouldn't agree, in this "hexagram city", he is above 10,000 people under one person, as long as he wants something, no one dares to slack off, even if it is this old blacksmith shop that has been operating here for three generations, "No, if you don't beat out the big sword of the master today, the master will make you unable to eat and walk around!"
After speaking, the young man's momentum suddenly pressed towards the man, and after carefully feeling that this young man actually had the strength of the sixth order of the Yellow Realm, it was not bad.
The man turned a blind eye to all this, closed the door, and walked out of the shop!
"Master, I'll talk to you!" Where did the young man suffer such a disregarded anger, and immediately grabbed the man with a wisp of aura!
But in the next second, the young man was stunned, and he saw that the man's figure flew up quickly, and he actually flew out of thin air...... The speed is extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, only a small black dot remains.
"Immortal...... Immortal...... Man, immortal ......"
The young man could not have imagined that the man who met almost all of his requirements on weekdays would be able to fly out of thin air, which is an ability that only the legendary immortals have, and he couldn't help but freeze in place, and his intestines were blue......
It is no wonder that young people are short-sighted, after all, "Hexagram City" is not as able to communicate with the outside world as "Kuncheng".
The same thing happened three times in the Bagua Secret Realm, but at this moment, there were seven terrifying breaths coming towards the old man's cottage, and the same was true for the dragon, at this moment, he was dressed in green clothes and turned into white clothes at some point, and there was an indescribable meaning in his eyes.
Suddenly!
From a large hall in the center of the secret realm, the music of the condolences of ordinary people came out!
The music is sad, the sound is not loud but it spreads throughout the entire secret realm, whether it is a brute beast or a human being, there is a faint trace of sadness in their hearts at this moment, and they all look sideways, looking at the depths of the secret realm from a distance of thousands of miles......
Ling Yu was stunned, Tomato was stunned, Brute, Mammoth, Big Fire and Xiaohuo were all stunned.
Tomato didn't hold back at first, two lines of clear tears fell, and ran to the backyard like crazy.
Ling Yu, Manniu was in a heavy mood, and slowly got up and walked towards the backyard.
Mammoth and Xiaohuo cried directly.
Dahuo's eyes looked at the grass house, as if he had seen the scene in the backyard through the grass house, and then shook his head, his eyes full of memories......
(The night is long, the loneliness is unbearable, give everyone a shot, crowd out and exclude.) )
