Bai Xuan stood behind Shi Cheng with a smile like a spring breeze. She walked a few steps forward, looked at Wu Tianshi who was hurriedly pressing the "cockscomb" on the top of her head, and couldn't help but smile: "Brother Tianshi, Xuan'er wants to come to help you." Why, can't you? ”

As soon as she said this, her face turned red, and the tone in which she said this sentence just now was quite the way a little girl was coquettish to her lover.

"Shi Daoyou, isn't this inappropriate? I've heard that alchemy is a tiring and tedious thing. ”

"It's just a matter of making a move." Shi Cheng said indifferently: "Besides, Miss Bai will take the initiative to help me for the sake of your face, fellow Daoist, don't live up to the kindness of others." As soon as Shi Cheng said this, Wu Tianshi and Bai Xuan's faces turned red.

"That'...... All right. That's hard Miss Bai. Wu Tianshi said hesitantly.

Bai Xuan waved her hand and said, "It's okay, Brother Tianshi, this is also a filial piety to my grandfather as a granddaughter." I see that my brother's anger has subsided a little, and when I wake up my grandfather today, I ...... I'll plead with my grandfather again, maybe Brother Tianshi, you can stay in our Bai family, it's better than being home from all over the world. No...... I don't know if you want to. ”

Bai Xuan's voice became smaller and smaller, and her two little white hands couldn't help but gently cover her face.

Seeing that Wu Tianshi looked like he wanted to speak and stopped, Shi Cheng smiled and said, "Okay, let's hurry up and start working first." After refining the Dan, you will talk at night. ”

"Fellow Daoist!"

"Shi Gongzi!"

………

After Wu Tianshi complained about Shi Cheng for a while, Bai Xuan, who was a little angry, puffed out his mouth and led the way in front without saying a word. Shi Cheng also felt a little embarrassed, knowing that his joke was a little too much, and after saying humility to the two, he followed behind. The group of three walked in wordless silence towards the place of alchemy.

The place of alchemy was set up in a large house in the Bai Mansion near the residence of the old master of the Bai family, which was also requested by Shi Cheng. The reason he gave was that if the room was too cramped, the fire might set the whole house on fire.

When Shi Cheng and his party came to the house, Bai Gui was already waiting in front of the door, he saluted respectfully, and said to everyone: "Miss, Mr. Shi, Heavenly Master." The alchemy room has been prepared, and Mr. Shi can open the furnace now. ”

"Good work." Shi Cheng nodded, and was about to say something more, but suddenly found that there was a person standing behind Bai Gui.

"Shi Gongzi, I didn't expect us to meet again in Baifu." An old man walked up to Shi Cheng, smiling and twisting his beard, it was Wei Yuan, the chief appraiser that Shi Cheng had seen in the Renxin Pavilion.

"It turned out to be Mr. Wei, and the younger generation heard that Mr. was a pharmacist hired by the Bai family in Renxin Pavilion before, and now it seems to be true." Shi Cheng said with a smile.

"When the son came to our Renxin Pavilion before, he told the old man that he was a Danshi, and the old man didn't believe it at the time, but now it seems that he is really a hero and a young man." Wei Yuan's expression was very respectful, and when he learned from Bai Gui's mouth that Shi Cheng was really a Dan Master, the shock in his heart was indescribable.

"The old gentleman praised it falsely, and today the younger generation will get an axe and make a fool of himself." Shi Cheng arched his hand.

"Where, after refining the pill today, I still hope that the son can deign to talk to the old man to solve some of the old man's doubts in pharmacology." After speaking, Wei Yuan looked around and asked Bai Gui, "Agui, where is your young master?" Today, Shi Gongzi opened the furnace for alchemy, but in order to save his grandfather, why didn't he come over? ”

"Ah, that's right." Bai Gui's face looked a little embarrassed, "My young master is now in the master's room, saying that he wants to accompany his grandfather, and after Shi Gongzi refines the Dan, we will go to the master's room together." Mr. Wei, my young master also asked me to apologize to you for him, he said that he really didn't want to be here today. ”

Speaking of this, Bai Gui looked at Shi Cheng and Wu Tianshi, and then said, "So, please forgive me." ”

"It doesn't matter." Wei Yuan nodded, it seemed that he knew a thing or two about what happened the night before.

"Brother, are you still angry......" Bai Xuan looked worried.

"Then let's get the furnace on the stove." Shi Cheng clapped his hands, "When the old master of the Bai family wakes up, I think any grievances can be resolved." ”

"Yes, sir, please." Bai Gui nodded and led the group into the room.

The inside of the room was very spacious, and in the center was a Dan furnace rented by the Bai family from Renxin Pavilion. To the left of the Dan furnace is a long table with various medicinal herbs on it. Shi Cheng glanced at the medicinal herbs on the table and seemed to be very satisfied. He nodded, then took out four bowl-shaped Baoyu from his coat pocket and placed Baoyu in the four directions of southeast, southwest, northeast, and northwest. After all this was done, Shi Cheng took out another packet of medicinal powder and instructed Wu Tianshi: "Fellow Daoist, please soak this packet of medicinal powder in water, and then pour the soaked potion into these four pieces of water jade." After doing this, I will put all the herbs on the table next to me. ”

Wu Tianshi nodded, turned to leave, and Bai Xuan hurriedly followed.

After seeing Shi Cheng take out four pieces of jade, the solemnity on Wei Yuan's face immediately disappeared, he snorted lightly, and whispered to himself: "I thought this young man was really a Dan Master, but it turned out to be nothing more than that." I'll just say, how can a young man who is not yet thirty years old condense Danhuo. ”

Bai Gui was very close, and was a little surprised when he heard this, he hurriedly asked, "Mr. Wei, how do you say this?" ”

"Do you recognize those four pieces of jade, that thing is called water jade, and the medicinal powder should be a powder ground from cold spring grass. The Dan Masters who have just condensed the Danhuo are difficult to control the Dan Fire in the time of alchemy, so they often fail to control the fire, so that the Dan is burned by the Dan Fire before it becomes a Dan. In order to solve this problem, individual Dan masters came up with a way to use the combination of Cold Spring Grass and Water Jade to help control the fire, so as to successfully become a Dan. ”

After speaking, Wei Yuan looked at Shi Cheng, who was meditating and pranayama in front of the Dan furnace, sighed, and continued: "However, an ordinary beginner Dan master only needs one or two pieces of water jade to assist, but this Shi Gongzi uses four pieces. I think the so-called Danhuo here is mostly the same as me, just a specious half-finished product. Thinking about it, he was worried that he would not be able to control the fire at a critical point and be seen as flawed, so he placed so many water jades nearby. ”

"But at this age, having such achievements is enough to be proud, but it's a pity that he has to pretend to be a big-tailed wolf, maybe he still thinks that the old man can't recognize him and makes these twists and turns, so he can laugh and be generous."

"Probably not, the flame that Mr. Shi displayed in front of me that day is obviously the same as the description of Danhuo in the classics?"

"Ah Gui, you only know one and don't know the other, it's not impossible to dress up a half-finished Danhuo as a Danhuo in a short period of time, although this method is relatively rare." Wei Yuan twisted his beard and continued: "But even so, I still said that, this Shi Gongzi's talent and attainments on the way to refining medicine still make the old man admire. ”

While the two were talking, the preparations by the Dan furnace had been completed. Bai Xuan poured the water soaked in the medicinal powder into the four pieces of water jade, and Wu Tianshi on the side also placed all the medicinal materials neatly in front of Shi Cheng.

Shi Cheng nodded, signaling Wu Tianshi and Bai Xuan to retreat far away, and the alchemy began.

Shi Cheng held his breath and concentrated, and suddenly his palms slapped out, and the scorching flames erupted from his hands, enveloping the entire Dan furnace like two fire dragons. The water jade surrounding the Dan furnace also emitted a faint blue light, calming the restless flames like flowing water waves.

"Up!" Shi Cheng let out a low shout, and an internal force shot out, stirring up the furnace lid. Then he grabbed the medicinal herbs around him one by one, and threw them into the furnace one by one.

Wei Yuan, who was in the distance, shook his head again and again, "Sure enough, as I expected, the flame is a half-finished product, and the refining technique is also a little clumsy and impatient. However, this young man's 'Dan Fang' is very mysterious, and I can't see what kind of Dan he is refining, and it is not convenient to ask for advice at the moment, I hope that the pill he refined can cure the illness of the old master of the Bai family. ”

Bai Gui on the side also seemed to see that something was wrong, and his face turned a little blue.

After about half an hour, Shi Cheng, who had been silent, suddenly opened his eyes, and with a loud shout, the lid of the furnace was stirred open again, and a black "elixir" flew out of the furnace and landed accurately in Shi Cheng's hand.

Shi Cheng looked at the "pill" in his hand, smiled, turned around and said to everyone: "It's already done, let's go to the old master." ”

"Wait a minute, let me see." Wei Yuan hurriedly walked over, and after seeing the pill in Shi Cheng's hand, his expression became a little incredible.

"How?" Bai Gui gently pulled Wei Yuan aside and asked in a low voice.

"Residence...... actually became a pill, although it should be the lowest grade pill. Wei Yuan's eyes were a little dazed, "The flame that this young man cultivated should be very close to the Danhuo, but I don't know what method the forces behind him taught him, and he was actually able to make a pharmacist who had not yet completely condensed the true Danhuo refine the lowest grade elixir." What is the origin of this son......."
