Chapter 19: The Great Dan and the Essence Blood! [Ask for follow-up!] Ask for a referral ticket! 】
in the room.
Couples take their seats.
"Amnesia?"
"No wonder!"
Zhao Xiaoshuang was surprised for a moment after listening to Meng Nan's talk about amnesia and regression in cultivation, but soon accepted it as quickly as in the previous life.
Meng Nan must record every time he encounters something.
From Yinlian Village to Angming City, and then from Angming City to Qingtian Mountain.
I carried all those notes, and I didn't want to leave one behind. Even if there is a miss, it will be quickly supplemented from memory.
Along the way, it was inevitable to get into trouble with these, but Meng Nan always insisted.
From time to time, I will go back and do some integration and combing.
Others only thought that this was a way for Meng Nan to practice.
Zhao Xiaoshuang also asked, but Meng Nan never said, only asked her to insist on recording her cultivation experience. Not only him, but he also asked of the three Meng Xing and those disciples.
Everybody has to keep a record.
So more than sixty years down.
Meng Nan's diaries and notes had been piled up in three rooms.
Zhao Xiaoshuang's cultivation notes also have thousands of volumes.
Half of the room is used for these things.
I didn't understand it at first.
It wasn't until now that Zhao Xiaoshuang finally understood-
"You knew you were going to have amnesia?"
"Now I only have memories of before I was eighteen?"
Such a surprise, Zhao Xiaoshuang couldn't help laughing again-
"So I'm not talking to an eighteen-year-old doll right now?"
"I should be eighteen years old in your memory now, when I was just pregnant with Meng Xingzhi, I was still young, and I was tender out of the water. Now that I look at it again, I've become like this, I'm an old woman, are you disappointed? ”
"Little doll, are you afraid?"
"What does it feel like, tell my mother-in-law about it."
The two have been together day and night for more than 60 years, and Zhao Xiaoshuang and Meng Nan get along more casually, although they are in their eighties, their temperament is more lively than in the previous two lives and in reality.
actually teased Meng Nanlai.
This was not the case in the previous two lifetimes.
"You're much more indecent than you were when you were eighteen."
Meng Nan also laughed.
Zhao Xiaoshuang was not ugly when she was young, and she was not ugly when she was old, after all, the foundation of cultivation is here, clean and plain, and there are many flavors precipitated over the years.
looked at Zhao Xiaoshuang's appearance, and then looked at his gray hair and slightly withered hands.
Meng Nan felt strange for a while.
I haven't experienced the years, but I came directly to the end of the years, and when I came to the old age of the two, this feeling was amazing.
The two chatted for a while.
Not only did Meng Nan find it strange and wonderful, but so did Zhao Xiaoshuang.
When you are seventy or eighty, your wife becomes eighteen years old, what is this feeling?
Old cows eat tender grass?
Back to the second spring?
Most people don't have this kind of experience.
Zhao Xiaoshuang enjoyed it.
The old couple seem to be talking across time and space, each with a novelty.
But Meng Nan didn't forget to get down to business.
For the next ten days, he was looking through his diary while talking to Zhao Xiaoshuang and asking about some information from her.
This is the case for most of the month.
Meng Nan finally learned more about the more detailed things of the past sixty-four years.
……
This life.
Meng Nan's alchemy failed to succeed quickly.
Without alchemy as a foundation, it is naturally impossible to talk about cooperation with Qian Yu.
Everything can only be done step by step.
Fortunately, Meng Nan had no bottleneck before the end of the week, and it was successfully achieved around the end of the year.
In the future, while cultivating, he pondered alchemy.
After the cultivation reached the Inner Qi Xiao Zhou Tian, the progress suddenly slowed down, like a turtle crawling.
Alchemy was difficult from the start.
There are two difficulties.
First, there are technical difficulties.
The analysis of the medicinal properties of various medicinal materials, the combination of the main and auxiliary materials, the mastery of the heat, and so on, are very detailed, and they are a hundred times more difficult than the chemical experiments of the previous life.
If it wasn't difficult, that person wouldn't have sold it to Zhao Xiaoshuang at the beginning.
Meng Nan is patient and persevering, and he is unwilling to give up.
But that's just one of the challenges.
The second one lies in cost.
One failure and two failures, each failure will waste a furnace and waste many medicinal materials.
In the 18-year silver chain village of Xianli, ordinary couples can earn about four taels of silver a year, which is equivalent to about four or five thousand copper coins.
The ordinary internal qi period can earn about twenty taels a year.
Meng Nan used to work as a carpenter, and he could earn more than a dozen taels a year, which was a lot.
In the "Alchemy Codex", only the lowest cost of a hemostatic drug called 'hemostatic powder' costs more than one or two pairs.
failed ten times, and Meng Nan's income for a year was lost.
Who can afford to burn?
In the first two years, Meng Nan didn't dare to let go of the mess at all, and he did more theoretical research.
Two years later, after the theory was more solid, he was more sure, and he figured out which of these potions was easier to use, Meng Nan began to really refine the medicine frequently.
I saved some money in the first two years, but of course it wasn't enough.
But in those two years, Meng Nan and Qian Yu had more frequent contacts, and two years later, Meng Nan secretly used 'Suo Luozi' to persuade Qian Yu to change his career to do the medicinal materials business.
The two hit it off.
Meng Nan exchanged 'Suo Luozi' for medicinal materials and delved into alchemy, while Qian Yu quickly refined his cultivation with the help of 'Suo Luozi'.
Ten years.
Qian Yu was successfully promoted to the True Yuan Period, and Meng Nan mastered the refining of a total of four potions, including 'Hemostatic Powder', and was finally able to break even.
And at this time.
Meng Nan's cultivation also reached the Great Zhou Tian of Internal Qi.
Another twenty years.
By the time Meng Nan, Zhao Xiaoshuang, Qian Yu and others fled from 'Angming City', Meng Nan had finally broken through to the True Qi Period.
True Qi Accumulation.
True Qi washes the body.
The True Qi period is a period that consumes a lot of time.
For example, Wang An.
He was promoted to the True Qi Stage at the age of twenty, but at the age of forty, he had not been able to complete the True Qi Period and failed to be promoted to the True Yuan.
Visible difficulty.
However, after Meng Nan was promoted to the True Qi period in the 50th year of the Immortal Calendar, he quickly broke through the 'True Qi Accumulation' in the next 30 years, reached the 'True Qi Cleansing Body', and quickly completed the four stages of 'meat', 'tendon', 'skin', and 'bone'.
The year before last, when Meng Nan was 80 years old, he successfully cultivated the 'five organs', and he was only one step away from 'exchanging blood' to be promoted to 'True Yuan'.
But at this time, his deadline is approaching, and there is no time.
In the end, he died at the age of 82, at the peak of 'True Qi Cleansing'.
……
"There are only memories left before the age of eighteen, so you should remember that you killed Zhou Boren that year and got an iron medal with the image of the 'eight-armed demon god'. This iron card is weird, it can absorb the essence of the dead people's qi and blood, and then condense the essence blood. Essence blood contains aura and can help people break through. But you don't dare to swallow it, so you only use the essence and blood into the medicine and refine it into the 'Great Dan', wanting to reduce the anger and impurities in it. The effect is a little worse, but this way with the 'Suo Luozi' and 'Xingqi Dispersion', the true qi period is also stable. ”
"But the general true qi period can live about a hundred to one hundred or twelve years old, but you are only eighty years old, and you already feel that the limit is approaching and your life is short, and at that time, it was guessed that it should be the hidden danger of this essence blood being refined into medicine into the 'Great Dan'."
Zhao Xiaoshuang took out a so-called 'Da Dan', Meng Nan took it and took a look, and saw that the Da Dan was fragrant and delicious, round and jade, but there were a few blood streaks on the surface, which was a little weird.
"Great Dan."
"Iron Plate."
Meng Nan didn't see these records in his diary, and when Zhao Xiaoshuang looked through them, he found that all the research on the 'iron plate' was recorded in a notebook.
It is feared that it will be leaked, in order to maintain secrecy.
No one else told it, but Zhao Xiaoshuang was the only one who knew.
"The 'iron card' is weird, and the root of it is still unknown."
"Holding the 'iron card', there is a 'nameless magic skill' in it, and you can cultivate the true yuan in just a few years."
"But this magic skill is weird, it can affect people's minds, you don't want to practice this method, and you have put it on hold."
"However, the 'essence blood' is extremely useful, even if it is not used to practice magic skills, it can be used to perform the 'Blood Arrow Secret Technique'. Relying on the 'essence blood' and the 'blood arrow secret technique', we narrowly escaped death several times. ”
"Even now, with this 'essence blood' and the 'Blood Arrow Secret Technique', although you are only in the True Qi Stage in front of you, you can threaten the True Yuan Stage."
Zhao Xiaoshuang took out another vial, opened the mouth of the bottle and looked inside, it was the bright 'essence blood'.
This is what Zhao Xiaoshuang used to support herself.
The urging of the normal 'Blood Arrow Secret Technique' needs to consume its own essence and blood, and it is difficult to recover afterwards.
However, if it is replaced by the 'essence blood' condensed by the 'iron plate', it is not only more powerful, but also better than not hurting one's own body.
Since Yijiazi, 'essence blood' and 'blood arrow secret technique' have always been the couple's trick to press the bottom of the box.
There has been no news before.
It was not until he arrived in the period of the founding of the city that it was taught to Meng Xingzhi, Meng Jian, and Meng Santan.
"The three of them—"
Still born.
Among them, Meng Xingzhi died unexpectedly in the fourth year of coming to Qingtian Mountain.
Meng Jian left in the tenth year, looking for an opportunity to break through.
Meng Santan stayed for two more years, and then left to find immortals.
More than ten years have passed, and the brother and sister have not returned.
I don't know if I live or die.
"If people are still alive, they should come back for more than ten years."
"Probably dead outside."
Zhao Xiaoshuang sighed, this is not a parent's complaint, but her speculation based on the actual situation.
The demon beasts lurk in the Ghost Mother Mountain, and they are infested with scattered cultivation, and there have always been many dangers.
The brother and sister are not the pride of the sky, and they haven't come out for more than ten years after entering, so it's easy to guess what the situation is.
It's just that I can't see anyone alive or dead, and I still have a little bit of thought.
……
Meng Nan thoroughly sorted out the situation after 64 years, and all kinds of things in the past 64 years.
There was a moment of silence.
A moment of emotion.
In the end, there was only one sigh -
"The years are merciless."
"It's not easy to cultivate immortals!"
