Chapter 45: The Twelve Flavors of True Ingredients
The reason why Lu Ran was interested in this red three-eyed skeleton was because he felt that this thing was very similar to the "nothing" big ghost under the "Water Prison Pass", except for the lack of a few pairs of eyes, the thing in front of him was simply a miniature version of the big ghost in a sense.
And the skeleton was a living creature, bound in chains, and though it had no expression or spoke, its teeth chattered, and its hollow and strange clicking sounds seemed to tell something.
In fact, it is a little pitiful, but it makes people look at it and can't help but be afraid.
What he has seen and heard in the past few days, at this moment, has made Lu Ran have a very strange and reasonable idea, since the turbid sea came out of the cabin, all the way, these strangeness he has seen are actually more or less similar.
But where the similarity is, he can't say.
In short, it can never be just a similarity in appearance.
He Rouyu told him that the red skull was called "Blood Tai Sui", and it was the feces of the real dragon.
Yes, Lu Ran heard it right, so this furnace pill, the core alchemy material, comes from this legendary true dragon.
Not to mention what kind of magical creature this real dragon is, just say that this "food and meat Tai Sui" and "fecal blood Tai Sui" are refined in the same furnace, plus a lot of strange leftovers, it is indeed strange enough.
This is the same as the "four-faced monkey" he saw in the golden hall two years ago, the four monkeys self-harmed, leaving only one monkey representing the south, and then the group drove to the south of the turbid sea, and actually really found the "nothing", and found the stone pill from the "nothing".
All this is like a joke, but it is indeed a certain benchmark and a certain rule for the operation of this world.
Is it the "ruler of heaven" that Mr. Xu Hui Xu said?
Is it also it, which makes Lu Ran inexplicably become a "person of fate", otherwise, he would not appear here at this moment.
It?
A glimmer of light flashed in Lu Ran's heart, and his thoughts were about to continue to explore this light, when he suddenly heard a low roar from the old Taoist priest.
"Fire!"
Bai Yunpiao obeyed the order, took out a red magic bell, and gently shook it three times towards the void position.
Overhead, there was a sudden sound of the mechanism turning, it was the sound of Chi Lian stirring, tightening, and pulling.
It seemed to wrap the fire demon tighter, making it more uncomfortable, even painful.
As soon as the fire swallowing demon ate the pain, it seemed to be asleep, but when he woke up in pain, the scales of his whole body stood up, and then he whined and wailed, and the fire swallowing demon also spit out a mouthful of fierce fire.
This is the fire used in this old way alchemy.
"Wake up, it's time to get to work."
Bai Yunpiao was expressionless like this, and every once in a while, he shook the magic bell in his hand to control the fire.
"To burn it with fire is to move it, to urge it with fire is to change it, to nourish it with fire is to make it form, and to extinguish it with fire is to make it come to pass."
In the old Taoist priest's hand, there was suddenly a red whisk, and his face was finally no longer dark, facing the firelight, the light behind him was sheng, and the essence of light like Xu Hui and Xu Fang miraged.
For a time, inside the Dan furnace, the flames were like a sea, burning so much that everyone did not dare to open their eyes.
"Twelve flavors of real ingredients, one in the oven every half hour!"
The old Taoist priest brushed the dust and separated the sea of flames in the furnace, and sang in his mouth.
"First tasteโ"
"Wait." Lu Ran raised his hand again, and at this time, he sat down on a futon in the south like Huihuan and the others, and asked very seriously, "Do I want to do something?" โ
The old Taoist's face sank, and he instantly collapsed into that unlucky look, he looked at Lu Ran with some surprise, and his tone was sad, "You don't have to do anything, just close your eyes and recuperate, or just watch." โ
Lu Ran nodded, his eyes widened, and he stared at the Dan furnace.
The old Taoist priest had to do it all over again, mobilize the Phantom Sea, urge the Danhuo, separate the Sea of Flames, and continue to chant.
"The first taste, take the ambergris of the earth dragon, which is its bones."
So the shivering red skeleton "Blood Tai Sui" was thrown into the Dan furnace by Bai Yunpiao.
In less than ten breaths, it was burned to a puddle of red debris.
Half an hour later, the red debris faded into the shape of a thumb-length puppet.
"The second taste is to take the flesh of the mountain spirit, and it is its flesh."
Then the unconscious, but always moving "Meat Tai Sui" was also thrown into the furnace, and the whole was burned into a puddle of white water, covering the body of the red puppet, which was the flesh.
Another half an hour, the third taste, is the five sons and mothers of the sword.
It is for the five internal organs.
In another half an hour, six strange insects of different shapes were put in the fourth flavor.
It is for the six intestines.
"The fifth flavor, taking the double horns of Fei Lian, is for its armor."
"The sixth taste, taking the molt of the tiger girl, is for its hair."
At this time, the little man in the furnace had a faint appearance.
Lu Ran secretly thought to himself, now he still has facial features and brains.
Sure enough, the seventh taste, the bright wind and dark sand, rustling, is for the ears.
The eighth taste, the water of the silver sea, the purest in the world, is for the eyes.
The ninth taste, the sweet rat, the misfortune comes out of the breath, and it is for the mouth.
In this way, the sky outside the Danfang was already slightly bright, and the old Taoist priest stayed all night, but his spirit became more and more energetic, and he opened his mouth to sing the tenth true material.
It's the nine soul pots.
People have three souls, and the soul pot contains all of them, which are all souls, that is, a person's thoughts, that is, memories.
That is, what the immortal aperture hides.
The Nine Soul Pots, the Ninth Memory, are the tenth true material, and they are for the soul.
So what are these last two flavors?
Lu Ran licked his lips, feeling a little thirsty, and then looked at Hui Huan Kezhizi still didn't move, and his hair was not messy, so he had to grit his teeth, close his eyes, and ponder by himself.
Finally, after staying up for another half an hour, this eleventh taste of real material really scared Lu Ran.
"The eleventh taste, take the living blood of your loved ones, for their blood."
The eleventh taste is blood.
What is the blood? Whose blood is it?
Lu Ran was still thinking in his heart, but he saw a green figure sitting in the north on the opposite side moved, it was the proprietress He Rouyu.
He Rouyu flew close to the furnace, stretched out her right hand, and the small green sword in her left hand was already in her hand, seeing the old Taoist priest dusting down, without saying a word, a sword slashed her wrist, and a stream of blood spurted out violently, penetrating the Dan fire and straight into the mouth of the villain who was refining in the furnace.
As if he had a feeling, the little man stretched out his tongue and licked it to his heart's content.
At this time, Lu Ran thought that the pill refined in this furnace should be the villain in this furnace, and at this time, he could already see the general appearance of this person, a woman.
The appearance, figure, limbs and facial features have been brought to life.
It's just that she seems to be asleep and doesn't know how to wake up.
"So, what is the twelfth true material, that is, the last real material?"
Lu Ran couldn't help but ask the old Taoist, he was already sure that this last taste must be like the "Awakening Pearl" that Gu Xing took when he was the "four-faced monkey" that year, which made this villain wake up.
This villain woke up, and the Dan was refined.
In this way, Lu Ran stayed up for another half an hour, and it was almost the hour set by the old Taoist priest when he was observing the wind.
The old Taoist priest opened his eyes sharply and chanted one last time.
"The twelfth taste of real material is an uninvited guest, a foreigner, surnamed Lu Mingran, an amateur!"
"What...... Is it? โ
Lu Ran got off the futon and fell down.
