Chapter 9 Progress

Soon, the fish soup on the campfire began to boil and squeak, and the tender flavor of the fish soup slowly wafted into the air.

Put on a cotton cloth, carefully take the fish soup from the bonfire, blow it gently, and take a small sip, the slightly cold stomach in an instant, a trace of warmth, the brain that was originally tense because of thinking, also began to get a trace of relaxation.

After eating the fish soup and the fish, Xiao Hong's mental state also got some recovery, and then, getting up to extinguish the bonfire with only embers left, Xiao Hong returned to the room, sat at the desk, and continued to rummage through various books, trying to find a way to achieve his previous idea.

Xiao Hong's family has a lot of books, all kinds of strange, all kinds of things, it can be said that as soon as he graduates from the college, Xiao Hong will wait at the gate of the college, as long as it is not the same, basically pick up the book when he sees it, and the older the better, because the new book often means that this book is a mixed student, there is no record of knowledge points in it, and there are not many things that can be used for reference.

The time had come to the middle of the night, and at this time, Xiao Hong's desk was already full of all kinds of books, there were more than 20 books, at first it was a pharmacopoeia, and then it was a detailed explanation of the magic pattern materials.

On the papyrus paper on the desk, there are also dense herbs and materials, as long as he finds them useful, Xiao Hong will record them all, and then use them as clues to try to construct reasonable ideas to achieve his own goals.

Suddenly, just as Xiao Hong was about to throw down the book and prepare to sleep, he suddenly found a material called the bark of the Bai Ying tree in a book called "The Fun Use of Materials".

The bark of this tree was originally used to relieve cough and expectoration, but the book introduces that the bark of this plant burns very slowly, and the smoke formed by burning can absorb a large amount of oxygen.

"The combustion is slow, if it is tightly wrapped on the incense and reduces the contact between the incense and the air, can it be promoted to burn not so fast, and there is a lot of oxygen in the smoke, then is it possible to find a way to strip out the oxygen in its smoke......" With such a discovery, a series of ideas began to linger in Xiao Hong's mind.

Countless strange ideas kept popping up.

The hand holding the tip of the pencil also began to write and draw on a new piece of papyrus.

After three hours, Xiao Hong wiped the sweat on his head, and finally prepared a brand-new prescription again, there are only five kinds of materials needed, all of which are very common things, not to mention Bai Yingshu, there is one not far from his house.

After completing the prescription ratio, Xiao Hong's body was almost exhausted, and he directly held the pencil head and fell asleep on the desk.

And there is only one thing he is doing now, that is, to cure himself of the terminal illness in the eyes of others and live well.

A day passed in a blink of an eye, Xiao Hong did almost nothing else on this day, and almost put all his thoughts on transforming the incense, collecting materials everywhere in the morning, and starting to mix and develop in the afternoon.

It wasn't until three o'clock in the afternoon that the improved Yuxiang was finally born, and the outside of the original Yuxiang had been wrapped with a thick layer of white substance, which looked like sandwich noodles, coiled into a palm-sized plate.

Then Xiao Hong didn't delay too much, and sat at the head of the bed as he did yesterday.

After lighting the incense, Xiao Hong could clearly see that the burning speed of the incense had slowed down significantly, and the original gray smoke had also turned into light blue.

"It looks like it works. Xiao Hong whispered to himself, and then didn't dare to pause too much, so he closed his eyes slightly, relaxed his whole body, and began to continue to use the breath training method to train his strength!

As the breath entered his body, Xiao Hong could clearly feel that the smoke in his body was no longer as restless as yesterday, but slightly mild, with a hint of freshness.

In terms of the current effect, it is not bad, and the smoke has not been deposited in the body, which is the most important.

This time, the improved Yuxiang burned for half an hour, which was three times higher than before, and the smoke formed by slow combustion could also be fully absorbed by Xiao Hong, so as not to dissipate in the air and be wasted.

Slowly opened his eyes, although there was still a slight dizziness in front of him, but it was much better than before, this time after half an hour, Xiao Hong's control power had increased by fifteen shares, and now it has become 158 shares.

At today's rate, it is expected that it will only take three or four days to upgrade to the second level of Yuli.

As soon as he thought that he would be able to make a magic pattern when he reached the second level of mastery, and he could control a higher level of magic pattern, Xiao Hong's whole body was filled with a sense of excitement, and he couldn't wait to practice another round immediately, but this was no longer allowed.

Because training the harness will also consume the harness in the body, there is not much available harness in Xiao Hong's body now, and Xiao Hong himself is also very clear that he can't rush for quick success, and now he has to give the body a buffer time.

Came to the desk and stuffed a few red safflower fruits into his mouth, Xiao Hong picked up the book about making magic patterns and studied them, Xiao Hong had read such books before, but he was just curious at the time, but now it is completely a preview, and he will record all the knowledge points about magic patterns as much as possible.

Then take out a piece of wood, and use the tip of the knife to continuously slide on the board, in fact, to make the magic pattern, there is a special carved knife, he can make the power in the body, intact to convey to the magic pattern, using ordinary knives, can not be completed at all.

Xiao Hong did this, just to practice the feel of carving.

As the sun set, the sky darkened, and Xiao Hong, who was leaning on the creaking wooden chair, was still fiddling with the two mysterious magic beads in his hands.

While carefully observing the lines above, he guessed their use, however, the lines on it were too complicated, with Xiao Hong's current understanding of the knowledge of the magic pattern, he could not fully understand it at all, every turn, every cross, and every arc in the lines seemed to have a mysterious effect, just like observing this vast and boundless starry sky, deep and fascinating.

"What are these two magic beads for?" Xiao Hong still muttered to himself, Shuangguang stared at the two magic beads, and with one hand, he casually touched a safflower fruit from the small bowl, threw it into his mouth, and chewed it with relish.

Three days have passed in a blink of an eye, and the power in Xiao Hong's body has already owned 188 shares, and during this period, he went to the forest again and collected some herbs.

At this moment, Xiao Hong is sitting upright on the dilapidated wooden bed, his eyes slightly closed, and the bamboo tube between the incense and his nostrils has been fixed by a small temporary shelf.

With every breath, the faint blue smoke would penetrate into Xiao Hong's nostrils.

And Xiao Hong's expression also seemed quite focused, his brows were slightly retracted, his lips were opened just right, and he suppressed the waves in his heart as much as possible, this time, it is very likely that he will reach the second level of the apprentice, which is definitely a metamorphosis breakthrough for Xiao Hong, once he reaches the second level, then he can not only control the higher-level magic pattern, but also learn to make the magic pattern he needs.

This is something that Xiao Hong craves all the time.

Fifteen minutes, the incense has been burned halfway, and the power in Xiao Hong's body has been derived from 195 shares.

"Looks like it should be enough. Xiao Hong, who tried his best to calm his mind, muttered to himself in his heart, estimating time has always been Xiao Hong's strength, and this is also a small skill cultivated in the four-story mine.

As all the incense in the wooden box turned into ashes, half an hour was just over, and at this time, the power in Xiao Hong's body had increased to 202 shares.

It has completely reached the level of the second level of the apprentice!

"It worked. Slowly opening his eyes, Xiao Hong stared at his hands and muttered to himself, his expression was excited, joyful, and a little unexpected.

Once upon a time, being able to have his own magic pattern and treat his own illness has always been Xiao Hong's great desire, but unfortunately, at that time, the devastation of illness and the oppression of life made his little dream seem out of reach.

At this moment, he finally succeeded, for a while, Xiao Hong was a little unbelievable, and repeatedly confirmed it through his breath several times, before he jumped up from the bed, opened his arms, clenched his fists, and said in a high-pitched voice: "It's successful, I won't sit still for the disease! I can finally make magic patterns!"

Undoubtedly, this is the truest voice in Xiao Hong's heart.

After a short venting celebration, although his heart was still fluctuating, Xiao Hong's whole person had calmed down and moved his body, Xiao Hong found that his body was much lighter than before, and his energy seemed to be a little more energetic.

There is nothing surprising about this, as I have said before, the harness is the source of supporting physical strength and energy, and the harnessing has improved, and the physical strength and energy have naturally improved.

Half an hour passed, Xiao Hong completely kept himself calm, and now Xiao Hong should think about how to make magic patterns and continue to improve his strength.

Of course, the top priority at the moment is to purchase the materials needed to make the magic pattern, which is indispensable for the carving knife and the carrying stone, as for the pattern liquid, which needs to be specially made by yourself, which is also a relatively important test for the pattern maker.

Carrying stones, Xiao Hong is not too worried, he can casually take out a few pieces of the mine, take them back to cut and polish, and then they can be used, and now what Xiao Hong needs most is a complete set of carved knives, which are made by a special process, which can transfer the power to the stone.

Of course, the value is not cheap, Xiao Hong has heard Li Le talk about it before, the cheapest, I heard that it also costs dozens of silver coins, in addition, it also needs messy things, such as some graphite, magic pattern bags, and so on.
