Volume 1: Shine on the Mountains and Rivers Chapter 51 Dan Dao Attainments
"Tonight, thank you Mr. Xu for your help!"
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Ji Yuan first thanked him, and then raised his head and drank all the wine in the bowl.
The liquor entered his throat, although he did not cough his face red as before, but in fact, it was not much better, and a few wine burps came out, and the whole person was in a trance.
Zhao Yuansong also raised the wine bowl, and he didn't say anything, just drank it very simply.
Xu Liuqing, who was watching, shook his head helplessly, saying that this guy was cheating on drinking, but after all, he also raised the wine bowl and drank it dry.
Only the scholar Shen Lang, who looked like he had nothing to do with himself, although the fragrant meat in the casserole had been eaten, he still swept a little side dish with relish.
"Since I've done you a great favor, do you have to show it too?"
After the three of them put down the wine bowl, Xu Liuqing's fingers tapped the table and took a deep look at the little Taoist priest sitting in front of him.
Hearing this, Ji Yuan sighed secretly, he was already prepared in his heart, and he also knew that the other party would not help him impermanently just by relying on one side, even if it was just a trivial matter for others.
But it's okay to do this, and only leave a little incense, which will be beneficial to everyone in the future.
So he straightened his back and waited for the other party's next words.
On the other side, after pondering for a while, Xu Liuqing said: "Actually, the matter is also very simple, it is a kind of elixir that I sent people to you many times before, hoping that you can help refine it. ”
He paused, and when he saw that Ji Yuan wanted to stop talking, he continued to speak: "I don't hide it from you, in the early years, in order to break through the realm, I used some side doors, and because of this, my body fell into hidden dangers, only this pill can get me out of the current predicament." ”
Xu Liuqing bluntly said that although he is still at the peak of his martial arts now, because of the side door he has used, he has no hope of going further in this life.
Not only that, but that kind of side-door left path also made him physically deficient, and the loss of yang qi and qi and blood in his body was serious, and he had to swallow great supplements every day.
But even if you eat tonic and medicinal food every day, plus the help of fragrant meat and spirits, you will still have to endure the piercing pain every once in a while.
"Mr. Xu's situation, Poor Dao already knows, it's just ......"
Ji Yuan sighed, thought about it and said directly: "It's really that this pill is too important to Mr. Xu, and the medicinal materials needed are very scarce, and the people you sent here a few times ago also said that it has cost a lot of money for several years, and it is only four materials that have been gathered." ”
Although he didn't know how to refine this pill, the other party had a detailed pill recipe in his hand, but at that time, he had a general glance and understood how difficult it would be if he wanted to refine this pill.
And a pill that had never been practiced, coupled with the fact that it was extremely difficult, only four materials, Ji Yuan did not dare to guarantee that it would be able to refine it successfully.
Even more than 70% of the probability will only make these materials wasted.
Xu Liuqing's expression darkened, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly: "The rest of the Dan masters in the city, and even the Dan masters in other places, I have asked a lot over the years, but no one has been able to refine them. ”
Among them, even an old Dan master with decades of experience in alchemy has made it clear that if there are only four materials, he can only guarantee a probability of 30% of the Dan, and if he can have a few more copies, he can increase the success rate.
It's just that these four materials alone have exhausted almost all of his continuation, and he still owes a lot of debts outside, so it is really difficult to make up even one more.
And if he hadn't been able to take this pill in the past few years, even if he continued to take the great tonic every day, he would lose all his yang energy and qi and blood, not to mention that his martial arts realm could not be saved, and even his life would be worried.
"You can just say that you are more or less sure."
Xu Liuqing gritted his teeth and looked at the little Taoist priest in front of him expectantly.
Hearing this, Ji Yuan suddenly looked entangled and groaned for a long time before he said a number with some hesitation.
"Probably...... About 50% of the certainty. ”
He reserved a little, fearing that he was talking too much.
In fact, if there were three materials to practice, when the fourth alchemy was made, he would be sure that the success rate would be controlled at six or seven percent.
It's just that this Dan is used by Xu Liuqing to save his life, if he is not ninety percent sure, with his temperament, he will never take this matter, after all, it is a good thing to become a natural thing, if it is not successful, it is equivalent to cutting off the other party's way of life.
"What's that? Fifty percent? ”
However, after Xu Liuqing heard the sound, he jumped up directly from the stone bench, and repeated with wide eyes: "You said fifty percent?!" ”
Even Zhao Yuansong, who was on the side, was stunned at this time, and looked at the little Taoist priest beside him dumbfounded.
For a moment, he even thought that he had drunk too much wine and had auditory hallucinations without paying attention, but listening to Xu Liuqing's constant repetition, he finally resisted the urge to put the wine bowl in his hand on the man's face.
This person really doesn't know, what does it mean to grasp fifty percent of Cheng Dan?
"It's ...... Is it an exaggeration? ”
Ji Yuan frowned slightly, not understanding why the two of them were so excited.
With half of the probability of failure, it is already a great risk for him, and he will never choose to open the furnace for alchemy.
Generally speaking, only when Cheng Dan is sure of seventy or eighty percent, he will decide to 'take a risk' and give it a try, otherwise the price of failure is too great, enough to make his heart ache for a long time.
"Do you know that for a Dan Master, if it is an elixir that has never been refined, it can guarantee a 30% success rate within ten times, it can already be called 'experienced'?"
Zhao Yuansong couldn't help but explain: "Even if it is a perennial refining pill, some Dan masters can guarantee it, but the probability of success is about fifty or sixty percent, and this is enough to be regarded as a guest of honor by many sects." ”
Among the Nine Xuanmen, most of those Dan masters whose eyes are above the top can only guarantee that the pills they are familiar with can have a probability of success of four or five percent, so they can already be regarded as guests in the door.
An elixir that has never been refined, but it can guarantee a fifty percent success rate, which is already close to the attainment of the Great Dan Master, and it is almost impossible to achieve it without tens or hundreds of years of study.
But is this guy in front of him fifteen years old this year?
Even if you start studying Dan Dao from your mother's womb, it will be almost impossible to reach this level in more than ten years.
And as far as Zhao Yuansong knows, the young man in front of him has only been practicing for less than two years!
"The other three Dan masters in our city, the one with the highest Dan Dao attainment, only dare to guarantee a half-percent probability of the pill I want to refine."
Xu Liuqing also said loudly: "According to what I know, the success rate of their own best elixir should not exceed about thirty percent!" ”
The last sentence, he almost gritted his teeth, and looked at Ji Yuan's eyes as if he could eat people.
And after listening to the words of the two, the little Taoist priest realized for the first time that his Dan Dao attainments seemed to be ...... Pretty high?
"Please also ask the Taoist chief to help Xu refine the pill!"
Xu Liuqing took two steps back, he had always been the most disgusted with red tape, and at this time he clasped his hands into fists and bowed heavily.
Seeing this scene, Ji Yuan hurriedly got up and dodged, not going to accept this salute.
But after thinking for a while, he finally sighed heavily and nodded his head, which was regarded as agreeing to refine this furnace of elixir for the other party.
"When Mr. Xu turns around, he can send someone to send the medicinal materials and pills to Xuantian Temple, and after the poor Dao is familiar with the recipe, he will try to start refining, but whether he can become a pill in the end, the poor Dao cannot guarantee it."
Ji Yuan shook his head, looking very helpless.
This can be regarded as a kind of duck on the shelf, but after all, he owes the other party a favor, and he happens to be the one with the highest alchemy attainment among the Dan masters Xu Liuqing has encountered.
In addition, the atmosphere has been set here, and he can only nod and agree, otherwise he really doubts that he will be able to walk out of this place tonight.
And after seeing him agree, Xu Liuqing was also in a good mood, swept away the haze in his heart for several years, and at this moment, with a wave of his hand, he asked Weng Yang to take his treasured good wine, saying that he would not get drunk with everyone present and not return.
Although Ji Yuan was a little uncomfortable with this kind of scene, he still sat down hard, but what surprised him a little was that in addition to a few bottles of good wine on the table, the old man actually served a pot full of fragrant meat.
This makes him, who doesn't know how to drink, really eat a little bit.
Until he walked out of the Three Knife Meeting, Ji Yuan couldn't stop burping, and as for Zhao Yuansong beside him, he also had an extra spice recipe for an incense pot in his hand, as well as the places that need to be paid attention to when cooking.
"This new head of the three associations is a very heroic person."
When the Three Swords Club Mansion was no longer visible behind him, Zhao Yuansong swept the drunkenness on his face, and commented with a flickering gaze.
Although the monk's physique is often inferior to that of a martial artist in the realm, he is also a master in the late stage of the Enlightenment Realm, coupled with some immortal secret techniques, it is naturally impossible to really be a little drunk.
Ji Yuan nodded and said thoughtfully: "Most of the comments about this Sanhui leader in the city are also chivalrous and courageous, or some kind of real man. ”
This Xu Liuqing is not a local, it is said that his family used to be a big family in the county, but in the end, the family fell into the middle of the road, and he had to take the old servant Weng Yang to wander around the rivers and lakes.
In the end, I didn't know what was wrong, so I chose to settle in Qianyu City, and finally by chance, I joined the Three Swords Society, and in just a few years, I managed to become the new head of the Three Societies.
And in the city, everyone who has crossed paths with him is full of praise for him, even if it is a person from a hostile force, when he mentions Xu Liuqing of the Three Swords Society, he can't help but sigh 'true hero'.
"Let's talk about you, why did you have a conflict with the Three Knife Society, and you are so disproportionate, you really don't have the best face in the rivers and lakes!"
As soon as the conversation changed, Ji Yuan turned to look at the scholar on the side, and asked with a slight frown.
In his impression, although this guy is a little axial and behaves a little weirdly, he is not a person who does not know how to measure.
On the contrary, these young people have learned some truths about how to behave in the world from each other, otherwise he may not be much different from yesterday's wisdom.
Hearing this, Shen Lang tied up his long hair again, looked at the front with a somewhat blank look, and replied casually: "Inside the Hundred Flowers Building, there is a powerful ghost thing hidden. ”
