Chapter 17
I don't know how long it took, but when Qin Xiaotian woke up, he found that he had already stepped on the straw mat. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 Shangguan Yuerou on the side of the info had a complicated expression, a little uneasy in her anxiety, and more worried. Seeing that Qin Xiaotian was sober, he hurriedly twisted a handful of linen cloth from the basin to wipe away the tiredness from the corners of his eyes.
"Where have you gone, I'm going to find it. I don't know if people are worried, so I went into the forest by myself, but fortunately I drove away the nest of tigers, otherwise you would have to wade in their belly at this time. Shangguan Yuerou complained in her heart while wiping the dust on Qin Xiaotian's face.
Qin Xiaotian opened his eyes, and in a trance, he could vaguely hear the words that Lao Dao left for him at the end, and listening to his tone, it should be related to his cultivation of the mind method of Qiankun Wuji. The last sentence of Tiangang Yuan Ji should be his Tao number.
"If you have an injury, don't run around, recover as soon as possible to find Shentie and do something good for the villagers. By the way, how did you get into the tiger's den, how dangerous. Seeing that Qin Xiaotian had no intention of speaking with his eyes open, Shangguan Yuerou took the opportunity to express her concern in her heart, so as to shorten the distance between her and Qin Xiaotian.
"Oh, it's okay, I was going to find some herbs to refine some healing pills, but I didn't want to be in the autumn rain, and there was nowhere to hide right now, so I strayed into the tiger's den, but I actually fell asleep. Avoiding Yue Rou's scorching eyes, Qin Xiaotian pointed to the Dan furnace in the corner of the wall and asked. "Can this thing be alchemy?"
Following the direction of Qin Xiaotian's finger, Yue Rou couldn't help frowning, this Ding Furnace has been missing for many years, why did it appear by itself at this time?
"It's just that this furnace needs samadhi true fire to be effective, and ordinary fire is difficult to burn through the furnace body. ”
Hearing the first half of the sentence, Qin Xiaotian's heart was overjoyed, but the samadhi true fire that followed made him a little depressed, he had never heard of such exercises. "What is the true fire of Samadhi?" In fact, Qin Xiaotian wanted to know more about this Ding Furnace.
"Brother Xiao Tian doesn't know, the true fire of Samadhi is still born of the fire of the heart, blended with kidney water, and derived from the principle of the five elements. My master, the Smoke Water Fairy, is in this realm. Yuerou smiled proudly.
"Then what's so special about this ding, why does it have to be samadhi true fire? As for the smoke and water fairy in Yuerou's mouth, he didn't know who it was, and in his opinion, those who could refine the secret method of this sect to such a realm would not be so young, so he didn't take it to heart.
Qin Xiaotian asked this, but Yue Rou didn't answer him immediately, not because she didn't want to answer, but because she didn't know how to answer.
After pondering for a moment, he said: "A hundred years ago, my master participated in the Pindan Conference in Kunlun Mountain, and met a hidden immortal on the road, he gave this tripod to my master, and told me the method of starting the furnace, that is, at that time, the master began the cultivation of samadhi true fire. I heard the master say that using this Ding alchemy pill is twice the result with half the effort, and it is very easy to become a pill, but for some reason it suddenly disappeared more than ten years ago, and today it appears on its own, I don't know if it is auspicious or evil. ”
"There's such a strange thing? I found it a few days ago, but I didn't come forward to look at it because of the etiquette. Could it be that Sister Yuerou has never found out?" Looking at the Ding furnace in the corner of the wall a little strangely, Qin Xiaotian's thoughts flickered inexplicably, could it be related to his appearance.
"It's weird, I didn't notice that meals were delivered every day. Shangguan Yuerou put down the linen cloth in her hand, got up and stepped forward, picked up the stove in the corner, and took a closer look.
According to the master, the three-legged tripod is the male tripod and the four-legged tripod is the female tripod. There are four characters on the yang side of the tripod body, and the font is thick and vigorous, which should not be passed on.
"This Ding is indeed what the master got back then, Brother Xiaotian, come and see. Shangguan Yuerou bent down to open the lid of the dendin after affirming the dan in front of her, and when she saw it, she was dumbfounded, not knowing how to describe the thing in front of her.
Qin Xiaotian was curious, so he got up and moved, only to see a pale golden pill in the ding being wrapped in a layer of misty mist. "Is this an elixir?" Qin Xiaotian was also stunned by the object in front of him, although he heard Zhou Tongmu say that there are immortal masters in this world, and there are many elixirs left in the world, but those who have no immortal fate will never be visible.
"Judging by its color, it should be a top-grade product, Brother Xiaotian,,, or you take it!" Shangguan Yuerou turned sideways, her eyes full of ripples.
"I'm an outsider, how dare I get a glimpse of the Bao Dan, and besides, the Ding Furnace was obtained by your master, and the pill in it must have been refined by your master back then, and it is the best policy to hand it over to your master. Qin Xiaotian's reason for shirking is very in place, as he said, he is an outsider and a poor boy, if it weren't for Shangguan Yuerou sacrificing his life to save him, he would have died under the zombie knife, and when he saw Baodan today, how could he take it for himself and ruin the solar terms.
Seeing that Qin Xiaotian shirked, Shangguan Yuerou did not continue to persuade her, took out a silk scarf and carefully wrapped the pill in the furnace, and then retreated with a smile. "Since Brother Xiao Tian has the intention to make alchemy, this furnace will be handed over to Brother Xiao Tian for safekeeping, and the master said when he was in retreat that he would like to take a thing from Brother Xiao Tian as a token. ”
Although Shangguan Yuerou asked Qin Xiaotian for an item on his body as a condition for borrowing this Danding, Qin Xiaotian could see that the reason why Shangguan Yuerou did this was to let him recuperate here with peace of mind, and asking for the object was just to find a step for him, so that he would have a better reason to stay.
"This is a jade plaque that I got from a cave when I first learned art, and I don't know who it came from, and I have no clue about the effect, if Sister Yuerou doesn't dislike it, I'm willing to hand it over to my sister for safekeeping. When the day comes, I will thank you twice. Reaching out to untie the jade plaque hanging around his waist, Qin Xiaotian handed it to Yue Rou without hesitation.
After Shangguan Yuerou got the jade plate, she smiled slightly, picked up the wooden basin and walked outside the house.
There are no worries, the herbs have also been settled, and the next step is to refine the pill, as for whether it can become a pill, it depends on the will of heaven. Yuerou's master's Smoke Water Fairy obtained the Ding Furnace is a female Ding, once four-legged lifting, four ghosts with hideous faces, long tongues and protruding eyes, limbs like snake belly, hunched back. At first glance, the evil spirits of hell have escaped to the world, and their images are lifelike, as if they are alive, and they are no different from living creatures.
The tripod body is oval, and there are four characters engraved on its sunny side, which bears the sky.
The font should be from the hand of a certain person, its pen is strong, extraordinary, extraordinary husband can imitate. I have heard the teachings of Zhou Tongmu, Wang Xizhi of the Western Jin Dynasty, still deserved to be a book saint, the characteristics of the pen are exquisite Xuanyue, the landing point is chic and elegant, the form is euphemistic and subtle, such as flowing clouds, quiet as a flat lake, and the movement is flying immortals.
The knot is beautiful, the bones are delicate and generous, dotted into a hook, sparse and dense, not impatient or anxious. Its rules are ingenious, as if they were made in nature, and they contain abundant artistic beauty in the land of size. He is admired by talented people in the world and regarded as a god. Regardless of the horizontal and vertical points of the hook and folding, it can really be said that the pen is extremely wonderful.
Qin Xiaotian, who didn't know much about calligraphy, had a sense of transcendent admiration after seeing the four characters of the furnace, and he was afraid that this word was really from the hand of the sage Wang Xi.
The quality of a Dan furnace, in addition to its own material, also depends on the quality of the lid.
For those secular wandering magicians who don't know how to pretend to understand, as long as they don't lose their bodies, they can become pills, for this kind of theory, this is simply absurd. It is important to have damage to the tripod body, but the design of the tripod cover is also very particular, if you only pursue the value of the tripod body and ignore the mystery of the tripod cover, it will become the cutting of the tiger and the tail of the snake.
The design of the lid is mostly sealed by the five elements, and the gas in the furnace will expand when it reaches a certain level, and some drugs will explode due to expansion, so there must be something to restrain it.
Therefore, there are many mysteries in the ding, with the method of Qimen, the secret pass Xun position, and the heavenly gate and auxiliary stars are set up on both sides of it. When the fire was raging, the Kan Palace drew water to make up for the lack of gold. When the air flow in the furnace is difficult to support the suppression of the lid, the yin and yang qi will be discharged in a special way until the air is exhausted, and the pill can be completed.
No one has ever tried the method of alchemy contained in the Lianshan Sutra. Qin Xiaotian also has the idea of giving it a try, even if he can't become a Dan, he can also learn the method of cultivating Dan and refining Qi from it, and if he is familiar with it over time, if he encounters difficult people in the future, he can also talk about it.
