70. Master and apprentice in the alchemy pharmacy

On the medicine mountain of Huang Yaoshi. There is a small medicine stove that can be operated by one person. Ah Rong has also had a deep understanding of the heat of medicine refining recently, after all, she has read a lot of pharmacists' codexes and has a deeper understanding of medicine refining and pharmaceutical.

The easiest experience in the world to obtain is the wisdom of predecessors, but it is also these experiences that are easiest to deceive people into it, so Ah Rong must verify the experience of his predecessors by refining his own medicine, and then turn it into his own experience.

Therefore, for this medicine refining, Ah Rong is very serious, from the charcoal selection used for the furnace to the water used for refining medicine, she made all the requirements one by one, which made the head of the medicine boy waiting in the pharmacy big: "Medicine girl, charcoal is easy to do, but the water you want is not easy to do." ”

"Is water in the stone hard to obtain?" No mistakes, no word skipping. The water in the stone is the water that flows out of the stones at the bottom of the mountain on a sunny day after the dew, rain and fog in summer, and the people in the countryside call it "mountain water".

In the medicine book of the Wei Dynasty, it is believed that the mountain squeezes water through the earth, wood, mountains and stones, and the aura of Zhongtiandi is more suitable for refining medicine. In Ah Rong's view, this is because the water is purer, filtered by the soil and sand. The water that flows out at the end is the most free of impurities, and the more impurity-free the water, the more it can contain the medicinal properties of all medicinal materials.

But I didn't expect the medicine boy to be so embarrassed, so I only heard the medicine boy say: "It's not that it's difficult to obtain, but it's that I'm not prepared for a while, and I haven't used mountain water to refine medicine for many years." Master Huang Yaoshi has always used the spring water of Feiyun Spring to refine medicine, so there is no preparation for the medicine mountain here, why don't you use the Feiyun Spring water for the time being? ”

"That's okay, you don't need to prepare water from Feiyun Spring, just scoop me up with a tank of water anywhere, I'll prepare the dew first." The so-called dew water is distilled water, and Ah Rong thought that distilled water should be much purer than the "mountain water", so he decided to open the furnace first and refine the dew.

The medicine boy smacked his tongue when he heard this, and said in his heart: "This medicine refining is really not afraid of trouble, even more than Master Huang Yaoshi, refining a small ordinary furnace pill, and preparing dew in advance, if you refine the life pill in the future, you must not trouble the dead." ”

While preparing to melt the dew, Ah Rong happened to try the control of the furnace fire that he had learned from the pharmacists' codex, so as not to try it later when refining the medicine, and instead destroy a furnace of elixir.

The medicine boy saw her there for a while to fan the storm and smoke charcoal, so he didn't worry about her: "Medicine girl, or I will refine the dew for you, so you won't have trouble here." ”

Actually, the medicine boy felt that refining dew should be attacked violently, and this one tossed like this. I don't know when I'll be able to refine enough dew. At that time, Huang Yaoshi came to take a look, yo, my own good apprentice does not refine pills, and he is tossing and turning dew here, what are the people waiting in your alchemy pharmacy doing.

As soon as I thought of where this medicine boy could still be seen, I had to volunteer.

Unexpectedly, Ah Rong turned around with a smile and said: "No, no, I just learned how to control the heat, and it is also a matter of the way, I have never touched the fire by myself before, and this is the right time to try the feel." ”

This said that the medicine boy was sweating profusely, he was waiting for the fire in the alchemy pharmacy, and from Ah Rong's request for charcoal just now, he felt that this was a veteran of alchemy, but he didn't expect that people were still learning to control the fire. But when he looked at it again, the medicine boy muttered again: "This is obviously well controlled, the fierce fire and the real fire can only be completed in a moment, and this hand has to work hard to find out......"

So the medicine boy came to a conclusion, the apprentice in front of him, who is worthy of Master Huang Yaoshi, is easy to learn and understand.

It was already noon after refining the steamed dew, and Ah Rong was eating in the medicine mountain, and what he ate now was the best food, all small stoves. It's very different from the one delivered from the main mountain canteen. Ah Rong thought of the similar treatment in the Chunhua Pavilion in the past, and seemed to think of something while eating, but he didn't catch it.

When I went to the alchemy pharmacy after eating, Huang Yaoshi was also there, and the fire was lit, and Huang Yaoshi heard the footsteps that she was coming, so he shouted casually: "Ah Rong, come on, come on, I rarely take you with me, just stop by to show me how to control the heat of alchemy." ”

Ah Rong, who had been playing all morning on fire, was a little shocked when he heard this, and said in his heart: We have been playing all morning, will we continue to play in the afternoon? But there was no way, Huang Yaoshi shouted and still had to pass, so she went over and squatted.

"Most of the pills are real fire, but some pills, such as the furnace I am refining right now, need to be combined with four fires, the fierce fire to raise the soup, the simmering decoction of the soup, the real fire to draw the soup, and the false fire to produce the condensed soup." Huang Yaoshi said, and his hand did not stop, and the technique of controlling the fire could be called a smooth flow.

Just as Huang Yaoshi was about to throw the charcoal in his hand into it, Ah Rong hurriedly reached out to stop it: "You can't let it go, just let it go again, Master Pharmacist, what you want now is a real fire, not a fierce fire." ”

"Yo, it seems that you even understand this. Then I won't tell you so much, come, just watch this fire for me, I'm still refining pills at that end, change to a false fire after a cup of tea, and withdraw the fire after half an hour. Huang Yaoshi was simply this person, he didn't ask where Ah Rong learned it, and directly threw a furnace of pills to Ah Rong to finish.

Then Ah Rong of the pill furnace was a little crying and laughing, and muttered: "I knew that I wouldn't squeak!" ”

Huang Yaoshi is not good for people to help in refining medicine, and Ah Rong is also not good for people to help in refining medicine, the reason why Huang Yaoshi let Ah Rong take over the furnace is also because he intends to carry his own apprentice, but Ah Rong doesn't know that he naturally mutters.

But Ah Rong didn't do what Huang Yaoshi said, and the false fire was withdrawn after only half an hour, and the old rule was to seal the medicine mouth and use the residual temperature to nourish the ointment. This black sand pill furnace is also peculiar, if no one touches it, the residual temperature can at least last until the next day.

If Ah Rong really wants to refine the medicine, Ah Rong feels that it is the most suitable time to be baked at that time, but it has never been implemented, and it has been taken out in about an hour. After removing the fire from the medicine furnace, Ah Rong began to refine his own medicine, and the Lord Zhou was still waiting for her medicine.

Control the fire while administering the medicine. Ah Rong completely forgot that a Huang Yaoshi might pop up behind her at any time, but it was okay to remember, she was already old and strong now. You must know that she used to be in the main room, surrounded by dozens of people, and those days have come here, and now there is just a small battle in front of her eyes.

"When you smoke the soup, you can change it every quarter of an hour, do you want to try it!" Try it, Ah Rong is reluctant to take the medicine, and she is unwilling not to try it, but in the end she decided to try, how can she know that it is useless if she doesn't try. This can only be tried by refining medicine.

Just as Ah Rong was happily replacing the fierce fire, Huang Yaoshi walked out from behind another medicine furnace, carrying two glass medicine bottles in his hands, which contained freshly refined pills. Seeing that the medicine furnace that Ah Rong was looking at had also been withdrawn, he walked behind Ah Rong and asked, "Ah Rong, have you taken out the pill in the furnace?" ”

Ah Rong, who was looking at the fire, heard the voice, and couldn't react for a while, but after understanding it, he quickly got up and said, "Master Pharmacist, it hasn't been baked yet, it should be ready to be taken at this time." ”

It has been more than two hours since the time was calculated, and Ah Rongxin said that this time it was longer than before.

Huang Yaoshi frowned when he heard her words, in most of the medicine books of the Wei Dynasty, the medicine was not simmered well in the furnace for a long time. But Huang Yaoshi still didn't say anything, he planned to wait until he got the medicine and let the girl see for herself where the medicine was, and what he found was always more profound than what others told.

So when he arrived at the medicine stove, Huang Yaoshi asked Ah Rong to fetch the medicine by himself, and Ah Rong didn't feel anything wrong, so he took the medicine spoon to get the medicine. At this time, the furnace was still steaming with medicinal gas, and as soon as the medicine port was opened, a white gas spewed out, and after the medicine gas dissipated slightly, Ah Rong took out the medicine.

When taking the medicine, Ah Rong pinched it, smelled it again, and found that the medicine was not refined, and the smell of the medicine was positive, so he took it and put it in the medicine tray and handed it to Huang Yaoshi.

And Huang Yaoshi was waiting there for the elixir that had been refined, and when he took the elixir and looked at it, he said "Huh" in his heart, it looked quite normal, the color of the elixir has not changed, and the smell is also positive, which means that the medicine is refined: "Why don't you take out the medicine earlier, in case the medicine is scorched for a long time, the furnace medicine will be wasted." ”

In the past, no one said this about Ah Rong, it was because Ah Rong was a senior apprentice of Huang Yaoshi, and the medicine that was refined in the end was even better, of course people didn't have to say a word. There is only Huang Yaoshi, as a master, of course, even if the medicine is refined, he can teach a few words, and he is also in the spirit of being good for Ah Rong!

"But. This method has been used many times, and now the Medicine Master and the Medicine Order Master are refining medicine like this. In fact, it would be better to put it tomorrow when the furnace temperature is not hot, but few people can wait. Ah Rong answered now as a matter of course, anyway, this black cauldron has already been carried by Pharmacist Guo, and Pharmacist Guo seems to be going to be back for three years and five years, so let's carry it for the time being.

"That's ......" Huang Yaoshi thought for a while, and said in his heart that the pharmacist in the mountains is able to endure it now, and he even dares to try this. No, he had to try it quickly. But it was troublesome for him to open another furnace of medicine, so he looked at the medicine furnace where Ah Rong was refining medicine and said, "You stay, I'll come to this furnace." ”

……

Gotcha, just now I gave her the stuff of his medicine stove, and now I snatch the medicine stove from under her hand, it's really done! Fortunately, the fierce fire has run out, and now it is almost the virtual fire: "Master Yakushi, you can withdraw the fire now." ”

Huang Yaoshi only thought that the time had come, so he quickly withdrew the fire, and then Ah Rong sealed the medicine mouth at the other end. Huang Yaoshi nodded when he saw it, and thought in his heart with understanding: "If the medicine is sealed at the mouth of the medicine, the medicinal qi will not come out, and the medicinal gas and water can nourish the pill, and this method is really ...... I hadn't thought about it before. ”

Master Huang Yaoshi, there are many things that your old man didn't think about, so slowly dig them out of your master disciple in the future!
