Chapter 20 Farewell to the Beggars

The raw material in the furnace has been completely melted into a liquid state, and according to previous memories, the entire smelting process should have been completed after the bubbles disappeared. So Shao Xi asked Guo Youde to go to the river in advance to fetch a few buckets of ice water and come back.

That's right, what Shao Xi is doing now is making glass, but he still thinks it's better to call Liuli. Of course, no one has seen this in this world yet, and things that have never been rare and expensive, and things that are rotten in the modern world will become treasures in this world.

In order to make the glass, Shao Xi had already booked tools at the tribe's blacksmith shop, so at this moment he was standing in front of the kiln with the iron tongs for taking the crucible. He was a little excited because this would be the first batch of glass to be made in this world.

Shao Xi saw that the time was almost up, so he took out the crucible from the kiln with iron tongs wrapped in a damp cloth, and poured the hot melt in the crucible into the ice water little by little on the ice water bucket. With each pour, he quickly straightened the cauldron to prevent a large amount of molten liquid from entering the bucket. His first experimental works were the legendary "Rupert's Tears." ”

When Shao Xi finished pouring the molten glass liquid in the crucible, several ice buckets were already full of crystal clear, teardrop-like glass.

The crucible is put back into the kiln, the raw materials are refilled, and the next step is to test the results.

Shao Xi washed the glass that had been completely cooled in the water and held it up in the sun to observe. For the first time, he felt that ordinary glass could become so beautiful in his hands. The color of the sunlight is reflected in the glass, which is crystalline, transparent and elegant.

Guo Youde, who had been watching Shao Xi from the sidelines, was deeply attracted by the glass in Shao Xi's hand at the moment, he had never seen something so clear and pure. I couldn't wait to ask, "Little friend, what is this?" Why do people love it so much? ”

Shao Xi originally wanted to tell him that this was "Rupert's tears", but thinking about it, it would be more elegant and connotative to use our oriental name. So he said to Guo Youde: "The thing we are refining is called colored glass, and colored glass can be made into various forms. At this time, what I hold in my hand is the 'Fairy Tears' made of glass. ”

When Guo Youde heard this, he was quite shocked, "This is really a heavenly thing, how can mortals ever see it?" Xiaoyou is really the lower realm of heaven and man, and this way is here to salute. ”

As he spoke, Guo Youde tidied up his robe and bowed deeply to Shao Xi. This made Shao Xi cry and laugh, just a glass bead, I didn't expect to make such a fuss.

Shao Xi handed the "Fairy Tears" in his hand to Guo Youde and said, "I'll pick a few of these and keep them, and I'll give you the rest." ”

"Is this true? Where can this way be endured? ”

"Don't be surprised, there's more beautiful ones coming out of the back. Don't you have some paint here? By adding these pigments, you can also make glass with different colors and patterns. When the time comes, just don't be dazzled. ”

At this moment, Shao Xi had the idea of using the "lost wax method" to make glazed handicrafts.

When Guo Youde heard that he could make something more beautiful, his whole person went crazy, "Oops, oops." In the lifetime of this Dao, it is really worthwhile to be able to see such a beautiful thing! In the coming days, Ben Dao will definitely ask for a lot of advice from the little friends. ”

In the next few days, Shao Xi practiced his mind in the grass hut and made glass. He finally gave up the idea of using the "lost wax method" to make glazed handicrafts, because he found that neither Guo Youde nor Guo Youde knew how to carve and could not make beautiful styles at all. Therefore, you can only make some regular geometry like prisms and glass beads.

Now Guo Youde is like a child who has discovered a treasure, smirking at those glass products every day, and I don't know why he is so obsessed with these things that can't be eaten and used?

Shao Xi asked with a smile: "These things should not be eaten or drunk." I don't know if I can sell it at a good price if I take it to the Central Plains? ”

Guo Youde touched the "fairy tears" in his hand lovingly, and replied: "How can you be willing to sell such a good thing?" Is this something that can be exchanged for yellow and white? If the people of the Central Plains see this thing, they will definitely flock to it. ”

Shao Xi is right to think about it, scarcity is expensive, and the less things are, the more valuable they are. It seems that this thing can't be made again in the future, I and Guo Youde have done a lot in the past few days, and I have the opportunity to sell it in the Central Plains.

Since the time crossing, Shao Xi has been thinking about how to survive. Now the northern grassland is better to say, once you step into the Central Plains in the future, if you don't have real money in your pocket, it will really be difficult to move an inch.

What followed was a more boring period of time. The production of the glass stopped, and there was really nowhere to put that thing if it was too much, and it couldn't be taken away from the dead belt. Shao Xi and Guo Youde tacitly chose to stop work, and now they have enough glass in their hands. Therefore, Shao Xi basically spent the rest of his time cultivating the mental method, and Guo Youde was responsible for correcting him.

Before I knew it, it was the season of spring flowers, and Shao Xi stayed in Guo Youde's grass shed for nearly four months. During this period, Muren took Wu Rina to see Shao Xi every once in a while, and every time he would bring some food, and Wu Rina would bring Shao Xi's change of clothes every time, and then take the changed clothes away. Now that they have seen less, they have stopped quarreling.

After months of cultivation, Shao Xi's meridians finally broke through to the second star position. This made him feel very pleasantly surprised, but Guo Youde kept pouring cold water on him, reminding him that the cultivation in the future would become more and more difficult. When the meridians broke through, there was no painful feeling as Shao Xi imagined, but unconsciously.

Since the breakthrough of the meridians, Shao Xi obviously felt that his perceptual ability had been enhanced and his learning ability had improved. Guo Youde's alchemy classics in the grass shed have been turned over by him, but he has learned a lot of alchemy methods. Guo De told him that with the improvement of the meridian star level, his perception ability and learning ability will continue to improve in the future.

On this day, Guo Youde suddenly said to Shao Xi: "Little friend, it's time to leave here." ”

At first, Shao Xi thought that he had heard it wrong, but after confirming, he realized that Guo Youde was indeed saying that he was leaving.

"Why did the Taoist leave?" Shao Xi asked.

"This Tao has traveled all over the world for many years, practicing medicine in alchemy, and now it has been in this place for more than half a year, and it is time to change places."

"Where is the Taoist going to go? Will we ever see each other in the future? ”

For Shao Xi, in fact, Guo Youde is the first real confidant and friend he has met since he came to this world.

His affection for Lao Wu should come more from Feng Yuyan, and he and Guo Youde are really the emotions that have been cultivated after months of getting along. When Lao Wu left, he did feel a little reluctant in his heart. But now, Guo Youde said that he was leaving, but it really made him feel sad and sad in his heart.

The two are also teachers and friends, and get along well. Now that they are suddenly separating, it is indeed a little difficult to accept in Shao Xi's heart.

Guo Youde replied with a smile: "Since I am traveling, then the nature of the world is where to go." As for whether you and I will still meet in the future? It's all about creation! ”

"When the Taoist chief said this, if I want to see the Taoist in the future, I don't know where to look for it."

"Huh! Little friends don't want mother-in-law and mother-in-law. You are extremely talented, and you are still young, so it is time to devote yourself to cultivation and accumulate knowledge. If you achieve something in the future, won't the mountains and rivers of the world be left to you? Why worry about not being able to find your own way? ”

Although Guo Youde is known as the "beggar immortal", he can't see the so-called fairy wind dao bones on his body, but more of it is free and uninhibited.

Shao Xi replied in disappointment: "What the Taoist chief said is that the younger generation is persistent. ”

Guo Youde patted Shao Xi on the shoulder, "After I leave, you must remember to cultivate every day, don't slack off, don't let down the talent given to you by God." This way believes that one day you will achieve something. ”

In all fairness, from Guo Youde's point of view, his cultivation and attention to Shao Xi is not for nothing. Ever since he discovered the difference of Shao Xi's pulse, he had already decided in his heart that he would devote his life's learning to cultivate this child into a talent. It's like a jade craftsman seeing a good piece of jade; The carpenter found a good piece of wood, and in his eyes, Shao Xi was that piece of jade, that piece of good wood. It's just that after such a long time of getting along, there has been an inseparable bond between him and this child, so he is also reluctant to give up at this moment.

On the other hand, since exploring Shao Xi's pulse and discovering that there is a real dragon, Guo Youde has also vaguely noticed that this child's life experience is not ordinary. There must be an unspeakable reason for a child with extreme talent and extraordinary background to appear alone in a desolate place in the north of Hezhou. Later, because they got along for a long time and had a good relationship, they started to love and care, and they kept staying by Shao Xi's side to find out who forced a child here. It's just that I haven't noticed anything after so long, so I can leave this place with peace of mind now.

"The younger generation will remember the teachings and exhortations of the Taoist leader, and will live up to the expectations of the Taoist master. It's just that the Taoist chief opened my pulse and passed on my mental method, but now that the Taoist is leaving, I can't find anything to give away, and I feel very guilty in my heart. ”

In addition to the nine-colored glass buckle, Shao Xi's things on his body are basically given by others, and it is not appropriate to send anything out.

"Huh! Xiaoyou's words are wrong. Although the gunpowder formula you gave me can't be used now, it has also made Ben Dao more insightful, and now there are this 'fairy tears' and many glass objects, which one is not from Xiaoyou, you gave Ben Dao? What's more, when we came out of the tribe on two horses, and now that I'm leaving, isn't one of them a gift to me? ”

Guo Youde put the packed luggage on the back of the horse and turned over on the horse himself. He bowed his hand to Shao Xi and said, "Little friend is cherished, you and I will see you again in the future." ”

After saying that, he turned around and patted his horse away......

From afar:

Red dust accompanies passers-by, and there is reincarnation in the world.

Why should a gentleman ask, who are the dealers?
