Yang Tianhong is not talking nonsense, the pharmacological properties of tortoiseshell paste are indeed similar to those of purple bamboo algae, and it can be used as a substitute. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

It's no secret that many alchemists are well aware of the differences between different medicinal herbs. The key point is that the two medicinal materials with the same function do not require the same amount of ingredients in the refining process of the elixir. Taking the Blazing Pill as an example, the purple bamboo algae required to refine a pill is seventeen yuan. However, if tortoiseshell paste is used instead, I am afraid that no alchemist knows the specific amount required.

Dispensing medicine is an extremely tedious and complicated process. One more dollar, one less dollar, can lead to unpredictable consequences. The elixir may become poison, or the cultivation of the person who takes it may be abolished.

Zhang Yan and Xu Jinhui were not familiar with the way of alchemy, and naturally they did not understand the mystery. Yang Tianhong has the "Dan Book" in hand, and he only needs to collect all the medicinal materials according to the recipe, and he can open the furnace for alchemy.

With the threefold time increase of the Linglong Treasure Lock, as well as the huge amount of discarded medicinal materials, Yang Tianhong's alchemy technique had been trained very proficiently. He crossed his hands and quickly sent out fire marks, and the Tongding Dan furnace was quickly surrounded by flames, and the temperature rose sharply.

Two hours later, Yang Tianhong, who was full of exhaustion, slowly walked out of the Dan room with two jade bottles containing the Blazing Pill and the Life Pill respectively.

Xu Jinhui couldn't wait to pull off the cork, approached the bottle and sniffed it, his face was suddenly full of surprise, and he blurted out: "Shengxi Pill, this is indeed Shengxi Pill." ”

The bottle contained three pale green pills, and the extremely rich wood spirit qi exuded a fragrance, just by smelling it, Xu Jinhui already felt energetic, and the previous anger and darkness were swept away.

He didn't believe that Yang Tianhong would be able to refine the Life Pill. Especially under the premise of missing the important ingredient of purple bamboo algae.

However, the facts before us speak more convincingly than any speculation.

Xu Jinhui couldn't help but feel a little ashamed: the hall master had already said that "Yang Tianhong is worth associating", but he was suspicious.

Zhang Yan had a straightforward temperament, saluted Yang Tianhong with a fist, and said bluntly: "Senior Brother Yang, I will go back to the master of the Ming Palace." The three junior disciples who have been trapped in the realm for a long time in this hall must be grateful to you for receiving such a favor. Zhang Yan thanked me in advance. ”

Pills are a rare thing. If the quantity is large, it is naturally worthless.

With Yang Tianhong's current fire control methods, the Dan rate is as high as more than 80 percent. The two furnaces of Blazing Fire and Breathing Pills, the number of Cheng Dan is more than ten. However, he gave three pieces of each at most. The rest, of course, is kept for yourself.

"Senior Brother Zhang, don't be busy yet!"

Refining these two pills was extremely energy-consuming, Yang Tianhong slowly adjusted his breathing, calmed down, and said slowly: "When I was refining the pill just now, I found a very strange thing. ”

As he spoke, Yang Tianhong took out the Blazing Pill and the Breath Pill that Zhang and Xu handed over to him, exchanged them with Zhang Yan and Xu Jinhui respectively, and said seriously: "I know that the pills of each hall are secrets. But without the comparison between the two pills, I wouldn't be able to see the difference. Two senior brothers, please take a closer look, what is the difference between the two recipes of this Blazing Pill and the Breathing Pill?"

Xu Jinhui's face was a little unhappy. As Yang Tianhong said, the Danfang of each hall is confidential, and it is impossible to make it public no matter what. Since it involves the cultivation techniques of the attribute disciples of the main hall, even if they are also members of the Guiyuan Sect, the Aoki Hall still can't leak a single bit. Otherwise, for this kind of Breath Pill, the Aoki Hall could completely hand it over to the Purple Furnace Hall to be responsible for refining, instead of getting the herbs from the medicine garden, and then the exclusive Dan Master of the main hall would complete the refining.

The same is true of the Temple of Flames.

It's just that out of trust in Yang Tianhong and what Zhang Yan did first, Xu Jinhui was not easy to be talked about, so he had the idea of giving it a try and handed over the Shengxi Danfang to Yang Tianhong.

However, he never thought that Yang Tianhong would actually put the two Danfang together and let him and Zhang Yan watch it casually.

It's something that belongs to the Aoki Temple, and it's the secret of the Aoki Palace.

Xu Jinhui's previous good impression of Yang Tianhong disappeared most of the time, but for the sake of that bottle of Shengxi Pill, it was not easy to attack. His face was gloomy, and he took the Blazing Pill from Yang Tianhong's hand with a stiff attitude, and glanced at it sullenly.

The moment his eyes made contact with the words on the Dan Fang, Xu Jinhui felt as if he had been caught in the legendary immobilization spell that only Ascending Immortals would use, his body suddenly tightened, his pupils shrank sharply, and the whole person was stunned for nearly half a minute, before he quickly turned his gaze to Zhang Yan and Yang Tianhong, and exclaimed in his mouth: "What, how can this be?"

Zhang Yan's expression is similar to Xu Jinhui's, but because his face is full of meat, he looks more and more hideous. He glanced at the emotional Xu Jinhui, looked down at the Shengxi Danfang in his hand again, clenched his left fist hard, his eyes were firmly fixed on Xu Jinhui, his voice was low, and he said very quickly: "It's not convenient to talk in detail here, first follow Senior Brother Yang to the Danfang, and then discuss it in detail." ”

"Yes, yes, yes, it is true that you should go to the Danfang first. ”

Xu Jinhui, who reacted, wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and without saying a word, he pulled his feet and ran towards the alchemy room not far away.

The three of them walked into Yang Tianhong's exclusive room, Zhang Yan and Xu Jinhui set up several prohibitions inside and outside the Dan room with extreme agility, and after making sure that no one was eavesdropping and snooping outside, they pulled the futon from the corner of the wall and sat down, staring at Yang Tianhong with puzzled and anxious eyes.

"The two senior brothers are both smart people, and this Life Pill and Blazing Pill can understand the problem at a glance. ”

Yang Tianhong's voice was still flat and clear. He put two pieces of Danfang jade on the ground and said seriously: "In addition to purple bamboo algae, the main ingredients of the two Danfang medicinal materials, there are also ginger red grass and white filigree vines. Other than that, the difference is only in the excipients. The Shengxi Pill has added fragrant peach leaves, and the Blazing Pill is a three-leaf liding. ”

Zhang Yan and Xu Jinhui were silent, occasionally glancing at each other, and in each other's eyes, they both saw extreme shock and fear, and even the rhythm of breathing became a little chaotic.

Yang Tianhong's voice continued: "Two pills, the three flavors of the main medicine are exactly the same. Purple bamboo algae and ginger red grass are the fourth grade of medicinal herbs, and the grade of white filigree vine is as high as the fifth grade. The maturity period of the main drugs of the three flavors is more than 100 years, which is difficult to plant and time-consuming to cultivate. As for the fragrant peach leaves and three-leaf lied two-flavor excipients, they are extremely common and the most common medicinal materials. In addition, the amount of the two Danfang for the main drug is also very large, and it is as high as one cent (ten yuan). On the other hand, the excipients are no more than three cents. ”

Xu Jinhui only felt that his body stiffened, and extremely bad thoughts appeared in his mind at the same time. He frowned and pondered for a moment, then asked uncertainly, "Could this be a coincidence?"

The main ingredient of the two Danfang is the same, and even the amount is not much different. Except for the blind excipients, it can be said that there is almost no difference. The word "coincidence" is also the most suitable word that Xu Jinhui can find when searching his intestines, but it is obviously inappropriate to use it here.

Zhang Yan glared at Xu Jinhui, who looked embarrassed, and let out a cold snort from his nostrils, then turned his gaze to Yang Tianhong, and asked seriously: "Senior Brother Yang, what do you see from these two prescriptions?"

"My worries are the same as those of the two brothers. ”

Yang Tianhong took out a copy of the Guiyuan Sect Medicine Garden Record from the Qiankun bag, and said calmly: "The consumption of the three flavors main medicine is too large. Since five years ago, the number of purple bamboo algae, ginger red grass and white filigree vines in the medicine garden has begun to decline significantly. So far, there are only a few dozen strains left, and the stock of the other two medicinal materials has also increased from tens of thousands five years ago. It has fallen to the present in the thousands. ”

Xu Jinhui frowned slightly, and stared at Yang Tianhong intently: "I only obtained about two thousand copies of pharmaceutical materials in the medicine garden before and after my Aoki Palace, and with the consumption in the refining process, there are only eight hundred Shengxi Pills in total. Senior Brother Yang, could the records of the medicine garden be mistaken, how could the stock of the four medicinal materials be so different from before and after?"

"The master stipulates that the number of medicinal materials entering and leaving must be recorded in detail. Regarding this point, Senior Brother Xu does not need to be suspicious. ”

Yang Tianhong said in a steady tone: "Senior Brother Xu is a righteous man and a gentleman, of course it is impossible to speak and deceive in this kind of matter. Aoki Hall asked for 2,000 materials before and after, and of course there is no mistake in this number. But Senior Brother Xu, don't forget, you have seen Senior Brother Zhang Yan's Blazing Pill Formula, the materials listed above are not much different from the Shengxi Pill, and the main medicine with the largest consumption is exactly the same as the Shengxi Pill. ”

Without waiting for Xu Jinhui to answer, Yang Tianhong continued: "This is just the elixir consumables needed for the second hall of Agni Fire and Aoki. If the three halls of Lingshui, Houtu, and Gengjin are all like this, what will be the result?"

Xu Jinhui only felt a "boom" in his head. That was the first thought that came to him when he saw the Blazing Pill just now. It's just that now it comes out of Yang Tianhong's mouth, it is more weighty and shocking.

If the five major halls of the Guiyuan Sect all had such a Dan prescription with exclusive attributes, and the required materials were exactly the same, what would be the result?

Yang Tianhong accentuated his tone, and the next words went straight to the core of the question: "Purple bamboo algae and ginger red grass are the main medicines that are indispensable for refining the Yuan Qi Pill, and the white silk vine is one of the main ingredients for refining the Pei Yuan Dan. Fortunately, Senior Sister Zhang Xuanru of the Lingshui Hall and Senior Brother Chai Ning of the Luotu Hall won back a large number of Yuan Qi Pills in the Spring Competition, and the disciples of this sect did not have to worry about the pills in the next few years. But in any case, there are very few purple bamboo algae left in the medicine garden, and according to the normal consumption in the past, I am afraid that even the number of Yuan Qi Pills for a month of inner disciples is not enough. ”

Zhang Yan's reaction was extremely intense, and he stood up from the futon with a "whoosh", looking excited: "You mean, the Danfang, the unique attribute of the five major branch halls, has exactly the same main ingredients and consumables?"

"That's just my guess. ”

Yang Tianhong's expression was solemn, and he said slowly: "However, according to the normal consumption rate and the number of medicinal materials, the actual situation should be like this. ”

It was an unexpected discovery.

Yang Tianhong never thought of looking for the problem through the comparison of two Dan prescriptions. The reason why he agreed to refine the elixir for Zhang Yan and Xu Jinhui was because of the wonderful induction that the Linglong Lock had on the Flame Palace.

Zhang Yan is the first disciple of the Agni Temple, and if he befriends him, he will be able to enter the Agni Hall and find the hidden treasures in it.

The unique attributes of the five major halls are the main consumables of the Danfang, and the Danfang is the secret of each hall. In the eyes of the monk, there is nothing more important than ascension. For the sake of an elixir, it is very common to kill people and sell goods, not to mention disputes between disciples of the sect.

Yang Tianhong is very clear about his identity. Although he was exceptionally granted the status of an inner disciple by the sect master, his cultivation was only in the qi refining stage after all. The task of finding the secret and finding the root cause must fall on the leaders of the branch hall like Zhang Yan and Xu Jinhui. This is the same as when the spring competition, they did their best to help Zhang Xuanru and Chai Ning win the championship, this favor will always be remembered in their hearts, no matter what kind of conditions and help they put forward in the future, they will do their best to meet it. You must know that becoming the champion of the big competition also means becoming the target of many participating cultivation sects. Although Zhang Xuanru and Chai Ning were richly rewarded, they also had to stand in front and become the focus of many hateful eyes. In contrast, although Yang Tianhong received fewer rewards, they were very practical and had a long-term view.

Except for the master and the sect master, no one knew that he was behind everything behind it.

The same is true now. The stock of medicinal materials in the Guiyuan Sect Medicine Garden has shrunk sharply, and there is obviously an extremely deep conspiracy behind this kind of thing. Of course, Yang Tianhong can directly find Master Chen Zhengjian or Sect Master Zhong Yuanyu and make his discovery public. However, in this way, he will offend the five major halls in disguise, and may even be noticed by the conspirators hiding behind the matter, bringing danger and trouble to himself.

As long as Zhang Yan and Xu Jinhui find the root cause of the problem, as one of the discoverers, their own credit will definitely not be less. Moreover, the names and brilliance of the leaders of the two halls of Agni and Aoki were enough to conceal their existence.

That's enough.

Yang Tianhong's gaze became deep, and his voice became long and guided: "If there is no Yuan Qi Pill, the cultivation of the disciples of this sect will stagnate. If there was no Pei Yuan Dan, it would also be difficult for the Jindan Grandmasters of the various halls to cultivate. The consumption of three drugs, such as purple bamboo algae, is too large, and this situation is extremely abnormal. ”

Zhang Yan's muscular face showed an extremely fierce expression, and he roared in a low voice: "Someone must have done this deliberately behind his back." They deliberately wanted to consume the medicinal materials of my Guiyuan Sect, causing us to fall into the predicament of having no pills available. ”

"It's more than that. ”

Xu Jinhui thought of more aspects than Zhang Yan. He shook his head and looked serious: "This is a well-set game. Senior Brother Yang's guess should be true, the formulas of all the attribute pills of the five major halls of this sect, the main consumables should be three precious elixirs such as purple bamboo algae. There is no medicine alchemy, and the only solution in the short term is to ask for it from other sects. My Guiyuan Sect is rich in ores, and the other party will definitely open his mouth and get a huge amount of concentrate from my sect at a very low exchange price. In addition, if they are ruthless, they may even take advantage of this opportunity to attack in a big way. ”

The effect of the Yuan Qi Pill and the Pei Yuan Pill is not just to increase cultivation. They can also be used in battle, quickly replenishing depleted psionic energy for Tsukiki and Jindan Monks. It acts like the fuel that keeps a car running.

Zhang Yan's face changed suddenly, he grabbed two jade slips that recorded Danfang, turned around and was about to walk towards the door of the room, and kept shouting: "The stakes are very high, and the master and the sect master must be presented immediately." ”

Xu Jinhui shouted: "Wait first, things are not as simple as you think." ”

Zhang Yan turned around abruptly, his eyes glaring at Xu Jinhui: "Then what do you say you want to do?"

Xu Jinhui glanced at Yang Tianhong, who was sitting next to him, and said seriously: "Senior Brother Yang also said just now, this is just his personal speculation, and there is no evidence. Zhang Yan, it's not that you don't know about the secrecy between the five major halls. To be honest, if it weren't for Senior Brother Yang helping you and me alchemy, I'm afraid no one would ever know what it was. For the sake of their respective attribute pills, the relationship between the major halls has become very tense. I am afraid that it will backfire if I report the matter to the sect master like this. ”

Zhang Yan thought for a moment and frowned: "You mean, first find the other three halls and see the attribute pills in their hands?"

Xu Jinhui nodded: "There must be sufficient evidence before we can move the other hall masters." ”

A wry smile appeared on Zhang Yan's arrogant face: "Even people like you and me have to keep a Danfang from the other party, let alone the disciples of other branch halls." This kind of thing, it is impossible for them to make it public, let alone come to the door to beg for viewing. ”

Yang Tianhong, who had been silent, said: "I have a good relationship with Senior Sister Zhang Xuanru, and I can try it in the Lingshui Palace." As the saying goes, the three of them are in a crowd, even if the two halls of Houtu and Gengjin do not agree to make the Danfang public, as long as there is a comparison of the Danfang of the three halls of Agni, Aoki and Lingshui, things will be much clearer. ”

Xu Jinhui glanced at Yang Tianhong deeply, suddenly stood up from the futon, saluted him respectfully, and said sincerely and seriously: "If there is no mediation between Senior Brother Yang this time, the two halls of Agni and Aoki will be like fire and water. Xu is not talented, and I would like to thank Senior Brother Yang here. Without you, the crisis of the sect would be difficult to detect, and I would never have thought that I would inadvertently become a sect sinner because of the competition for medicinal materials. ”

Yang Tianhong hurriedly stood up and saluted back, but was stopped by the stubborn Xu Jinhui who stretched out his hand and bowed down stiffly.

Xu Jinhui was indeed frightened into a cold sweat by Yang Tianhong's meticulous analysis.

In a sense, the sect is actually the protection and support of the monks.

If the sect is destroyed, the monk will become rootless duckweed.

Xu Jinhui was furious at the moment, and he was extremely angry at the conspirators who deliberately consumed the medicinal materials of the Guiyuan Sect behind his back, and he also felt extremely grateful to Yang Tianhong.

When you were about to fall into the abyss, someone suddenly reached out from the side and pulled you, this is what Xu Jinhui really feels at the moment.
