After Qian Chao crossed the gate, he found that this was a very large courtyard, flat and wide under the high walls, and the ground was flat bluestone, and on top of this bluestone were rows of small houses, and there were also rows of small sheds, although they were dense and turned, but they were neat.

"Senior Brother Lu," Senior Brother Cheng called.

A monk about the same age as Cheng Qiantang got up from a small shed and walked over.

"Senior Brother Cheng, what's the matter?"

"Senior Brother Lu, this is Senior Brother Qian Chaoqian, although the entry is not long, but he works hard, I will continue to teach him alchemy here, if he comes in the future, don't stop him, even if I am not with him."

When Senior Brother Lu heard this, he couldn't help but look at Qian Chao curiously, and Qian Chao hurriedly saluted when he saw it.

"It seems that Senior Brother Qian must be very attentive, generally speaking, a disciple who has just started will not be able to enter this courtyard without more than half a year of effort, okay, in the future, Senior Brother Qian will come to refine the weapon, just come in, ah, this is for you, the gate is over there, and you don't have to go through this small gate in the future, if I don't have someone to ask you to show him."

What was handed over was a small dark green sign, the material should be green copper, and there was a hole on the sign, which seemed to be used to string the belt and hang it on the waist.

Qian Chao only noticed that the jade plate on Senior Brother Cheng's waist was this little green plaque.

"Senior Brother Qian, don't hang this sign first, just make a certificate to enter here, otherwise if you hang it on your waist, someone will see it and want to ask you to help refine a spiritual weapon, and you won't, wouldn't it be embarrassing, and you can hang this small sign after you can refine the spiritual weapon completely by yourself."

I see, Qian Chao looked at the small brand in his hand again and put it in the storage bag.

After Senior Brother Lu gave him the brand, he said goodbye and left, and Cheng Qiantang took Qian Chao to find a small shed and sit down at random.

There was a case and a futon in the shed, and a large wooden barrel filled with water, but the most attractive thing was a place on the ground of the shed that was as protruding as a well, and a stone slab was also covered on it. However, Qian Chao felt that there were obviously not so many people in this courtyard at this time, and it was quiet.

"There are not many people today, this courtyard seems deserted, you will be different tomorrow, today is Senior Brother Xu Kexu teaching in the Chengqi Hall, this courtyard is full of people all ran to listen, well, I have heard what Senior Brother Xu said today, you must not understand it, or listen to me tell you."

"Senior Brother Cheng, is it true that Senior Brother Lu just now said that a new disciple can't enter this courtyard without half a year?"

"Half a year? He said less, this time when the master asked me to take you junior brothers and sisters, he told me that the control should be stricter than in previous years, otherwise the good and bad in the Chengqi Hall will be uneven, and it will not look like a look. I don't know if I'll see the ones you showed me today in half a year. ”

"Okay, don't gossip, Senior Brother Qian, your current art is acceptable, you still need to practice diligently in the future, the art of things is the foundation of alchemy, but what I want to teach you today is the foundation of alchemy, the material."

As he spoke, Cheng Qiantang took out a piece of green copper ore from his storage bag and a green copper ingot.

"The average green copper ore sent to Chengqi Hall is so big, and after smelting, you can only get such a green copper ingot."

When Qian Chao heard this, he looked at the green copper ingot, which was much smaller than the inkstone.

"I'll do it first, you watch, how?"

Qian Chao nodded.

Cheng Qiantang first used the spirit sword to cut the ore into four parts, and then removed the stone slab that covered the fire eye, revealing a black and swarthy hole the size of a sea bowl, and used fire control techniques to lure the earth fire out of the fire eye, and suddenly the hole the size of the sea bowl came out with a tongue of fire a foot high, and the scorching breath made Qian Chao feel like he was burned, and he felt that his cheeks were hot and his tongue was dry.

However, the senior brother didn't care at all, and put his hand closer to the tongue of fire to test the temperature of the fire, and after being satisfied, he used the magic to hang a piece of cut ore on the tongue of fire.

I saw that the ore gradually became dark red in color with the scorching of the flame, soft and glutinous like sticky rice porridge, and after the ore color became whiter and brighter, it turned out to be like magma, and this magma gradually became a red ball under the control of Senior Brother Cheng's Imperial Technique, and there was a walnut-sized bright white ball hanging there above the magma ball, which was the green copper that was melted in the ore.

The magma ball was thrown directly into the hole by Senior Brother Cheng, and the remaining bright white and blazing green copper ball was put into the big wooden barrel full of water, and the white vapor steamed with a "snort", and the water in the bucket boiled and tumbled.

When refining the second piece, when the magma ball stabilized, Senior Brother Cheng asked Qian Chao to try to hold the magma ball with the Imperial Technique, Qian Chao tried it, only to feel that the ball was extremely hot, although he didn't touch it with his own hands, but the heat perceived by the spiritual power also made him empathize.

"There is a fire control technique in the fire control technique, which is used at this time, otherwise you will definitely not be able to stand such a high temperature."

Senior Brother Cheng said.

Qian Chao suddenly realized, and when he used the fire technique to try again, it was really much better.

After trying the magma, Senior Brother Cheng asked him to try the molten green copper, and after Qian Chao finished trying it, he put it into the bucket to cool down.

When it came to the third piece, Senior Brother Cheng asked Qian Chao to try it himself, while he watched from the side.

Qian Chao thought it was a simple thing, but it turned out that it was not like that.

Although he had a knack for fighting the fire, it was still very hot to sit in front of this fire eye, and soon he felt that he was about to be roasted into a piece of dried meat. And then there is the ore and the green copper in it are burned into juice, under the high temperature to use the magic to separate them is extremely difficult, Qian Chao has tried many times, can not be like Senior Brother Cheng to divide them into two clear balls, but he also saw that Senior Brother Cheng threw the molten magma directly into the eye of the fire, so he controlled this magic to drip the magma into it bit by bit, and when the magma was much less, he separated the two, and put the molten green copper into the barrel.

Senior Brother Cheng thought that when he got here, this Senior Brother Qian would definitely not be able to support it and ask for help from himself, but he didn't expect him to do it, so he couldn't help nodding secretly.

At this time, there was only one last piece of ore left, and Senior Brother Cheng asked Qian Chao if he wanted to continue, and of course Qian Chao did not miss any opportunity to practice.

The fourth piece is smoother than the third, Qian Chao already knows where the difficulty is, so the time is faster than the last time, but the senior brother did not let him throw the green copper into the barrel, but asked him to take out the three pieces of green copper in the barrel and put it on the fire eye to burn, after all the burning and mixing into one, Qian Chao under the guidance of Senior Brother Cheng, the green copper juice was restrained into the shape of a square ingot with the magic and then put it into the barrel.

After a while, when the water in the bucket stopped boiling, Senior Brother Cheng took out the piece of green copper, and the cooled green copper was no longer bright white, but a dark green that Qian Chao had seen.

"Senior Brother Qian, it seems that your spiritual root is good, you can last so long, it's not a secret, when I first learned this material, I had to divide this whole piece of ore into more than a dozen pieces, and the spiritual power of the whole body was almost used to melt one piece at a time, and I had to meditate for a while before I could continue, Senior Brother Qian really impressed me!"

After watching Qian Chao's performance, Cheng Qiantang sighed again, he expected that Qian Chao's spiritual root must be very good, and he couldn't help but be even more envious.

Of course, Qian Chao knew why he was able to smelt two ores in one go, but those were what he thought about hard, and he had just started dating with this Senior Brother Cheng, and he couldn't get along, so he didn't say anything, just changed the topic and asked:

"Senior Brother Cheng, this fire eye won't be blocked by us, right?"

"How can it be, this fire eye is an underground river of fire, the further down it goes, the hotter it gets, and the ones that melted just now don't know where they flow after they go in, and they can't be stopped."

"Senior Brother Qian, do you know what this piece of green copper ingot is worth?"

Qian Chao naturally didn't know, so he shook his head.

Senior Brother Cheng took the green copper ingot in his hand and said, "Two spirit stones." After speaking, he threw it to Qian Chao, "As long as you junior brothers and sisters are qualified to enter this courtyard, everyone will have a piece, and this piece is yours." ”

Qian Chao looked at the green copper ingot in his hand, then looked at Senior Brother Cheng, and said: "Senior Brother Cheng, I have just learned how to make materials now, and it is estimated that there will be a long time before I really start refining weapons, I don't need this green copper ingot very urgently, can Senior Brother take back this green copper and give me another piece of ore for me to refine?" ”

After listening to that, Cheng Qiantang seemed to expect Qian Chao to say this, so he smiled and said: "This fast green copper is given to you according to the rules of the master, I won't take it back, well, Senior Brother Qian seems to want to lay a good foundation, okay, then you might as well do me a favor, I recently saved some ore, thinking about melting them into ingots, but I haven't been able to spare time, if Senior Brother Qian is willing, help me melt them." ”

After speaking, Senior Brother Cheng took out a storage bag from his body and handed it over, Qian Chao looked at it, there were more than 20 ores in the bag, and he couldn't help but be very happy, and secretly said that these were enough to refine himself for a while, so he said to Senior Brother Cheng: "No problem, I will specialize in refining these ores in the past few days." ”

"Senior Brother Qian, in the future, you will be in this Chengqi Hall, have more eyes, those who are here are too busy to help, and those who can help can also learn a lot of things, at least you can get a good popularity, at this time it is a blessing for you to suffer, do more and you will be able to have more knowledge, of course, if someone bullies you, you can come to me."

"Yes, thank you, Senior Brother Cheng."

"Oh, by the way, you should take a look at that "Six Fu True Meaning", you will definitely use it in the future."

"Yes"
