Chapter 31: The Pill is Released
"Qin Xian, why are you here?" Qin Wen had just turned around, when he suddenly heard someone calling him behind him, and when he looked up, he saw that it was the Feng monk he saw in Baicaozhai.
I didn't expect to meet him here, so I smiled and said, "It turned out to be Brother Feng, are you also preparing to go out?"
Monk Feng waved his hand at the caravan behind him and said, "This time, I am following an old caravan to prepare to trade some items, and Qin Xian is also going to travel to the tribe?"
Qin Wen nodded, he was looking for the kind of spirit stones that made the tray and had already communicated with the Feng monk in Baicaozhai, and he didn't hide it: "I'm going to find some of the spirit stones that Brother Feng identified last time, and I don't know if I can find them, just try my luck when I get out of the customs." ”
At this time, Monk Feng was a little puzzled and said, "Then why did Qin worship stop here? Are you still waiting for your friend?"
Qin Wen hesitated a little and said: "This time I came in a hurry, some of the rules for going out of the customs have not been clarified, and the seal letter required for leaving the customs has not been prepared, it seems that I will have to wait until the deputy general who issued the seal letter comes back before leaving the customs." ”
Monk Feng said with a smile on his face: "This doesn't matter, the caravan I am in often comes and goes here, so it's better for Qin to follow the caravan and just say hello to the sergeant guarding the door after a while." ”
Qin Wen nodded and said, "Then there is Brother Lao Feng." ”
Monk Feng waved his hand, called a young man from the caravan, and then said: "Qin is polite, come, let me introduce you, this is the young owner of the Jin family's firm, Jin Ya." ”
Some dusty young people came to Monk Feng and asked, "Uncle Feng, is there something wrong?"
Monk Feng introduced Qin Wen to him and said: "Come, Jinya, this is the Qin worship of Duanwang Mansion I told you the day before yesterday, Qin worship is going to go out of the customs now, you can arrange it in a while, and report the number of people in the caravan." ”
After Jin Ya and Qin Wen saluted each other, they said with a full promise: "It's no problem, Qin worships you and Uncle Feng to follow the caravan, and I will deal with the affairs at the pass." ”
As he spoke, he walked back to the front of the caravan, and then greeted the soldiers guarding the gate, who also smiled and opened another closed gate, allowing the caravan to pass through the city gate in a carriage.
Qin Wen and Feng Monk sat in a carriage and smoothly walked out of Qingyu Pass, and the two of them met again in the carriage, Qin Wen also knew that Feng Monk's name was Feng Xi, who used to be a cultivator in the Great Qi army, but now he has long since left the army, and he travels around on weekdays, and goes to the Luhoro tribe in the northeast more.
Because he was a high-ranking monk and his popularity was relatively good, many caravans to and from the Northeast were willing to travel with him, and this time the owner of the Jin Merchant House was an old friend of his.
Feng Xi already knew the purpose of Qin Wen's visit to the Ring Tribe, so he took out a map from his storage bag, pointed to the location on the northwest corner and said: "Qin Feng came out this time to prepare to go to the Lingshan Tribe, the spirit stones that I saw that day were the most produced in the Lingshan Tribe, you might as well follow the caravan, although we didn't go to the Lingshan tribe this time, but we got here together, as long as Qin Feng went straight to the northwest, we would arrive, so as not to inquire about the road." ”
Qin Wen followed his finger and saw on the map that the caravan was going all the way north, and then there were several forks in the road at a node, Feng Xi's finger was pressed on the fork in the road, and then the four words Lingshan tribe were marked not far in the direction of the northwest.
Although it was a little slower with the caravan, it did save Qin Wen a lot of effort, Qin Wen thought for a while and nodded in agreement: "Then it's bothering Brother Feng." ”
After more than half a month on the road, the caravan stopped and walked, and the nomadic tribes would trade some goods, and gradually the tea, silk and a lot of salt on the carriage were replaced with felt, tanned skins and some unique spirit animals, and the caravan was warmly welcomed everywhere it went.
Qin Wen in the caravan not only appreciated the scenery of the early spring, but also learned a lot of rules for dealing with these tribes, the only thing that made him feel a little difficult was the language of the tribe, the caravan was equipped with some translators, Qin Wen was now a little worried that if he went to the Lingshan tribe alone, how to communicate with the people of the tribe at that time.
The carriage walked north from a medium-sized tribal station, and these days Qin Wen also saw that there were not many monks in the Xuanshi period in this caravan, there were as many as five or six in total, so he asked Feng Xi next to him with some doubts: "I see that there are many monks in this Jin Clan's trading house, they all carry storage bags on them, and it is too troublesome to form a caravan now, why don't they let these monks directly bring items to trade, in that case, they can also save a lot of time." ”
Feng Xi shook on the carriage and replied: "If it is a monk who comes to trade alone, there will be problems in terms of safety, forming a caravan first, high-level monks usually do not attack ordinary people, and secondly, if a large number of horses and the like are traded, they can also be brought back to the customs by hand, so most of the trading houses now trade with ordinary caravans." ”
The caravan traveled for another three or five days, and came to a valley, the location of the valley mouth was facing several intersections, Qin Wen checked from the map that here to the northwest will be the Lingshan tribe, and the north of Zhizhi is the largest tribe in the northeast, the Luhoro tribe, which will also be the place where he and the caravan are separated.
Qin Wen and Feng Xi got out of the carriage, and Qin Wen arched his hand and said: "Thank you Brother Feng for your guidance along the way, if Brother Feng returns to the capital after a while, be sure to go to Duanwangfu to find him, Qin Wen will definitely invite Brother Feng to drink for a few days." ”
Feng Xi also arched his hand and said: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say, I also wish Qin worship a smooth journey here, after arriving at the Lingshan tribe, Qin worship will not march to the northwest again, there will be a border with the Hu tribe, and there is still hostility to the monks of Daqi." ”
Qin Wen nodded and wrote down Feng Xi's words, and then said goodbye to the Jin Ya who rushed over, and then walked in the direction of the Lingshan Tribe.
The mountains were covered with snow, and although there was no caravan to guide them, the approximate geographical location was still marked on Xiang Hao's map, and Qin Wen would not get lost.
Five days later, on a mountain peak that was about to approach the Lingshan tribe, Qin Wen unexpectedly found a naturally generated earth fire mouth, which made him immediately excited, and hurriedly took out a Dan furnace he carried with him, put it on the earth fire mouth, and then used the yuan fire to ignite the earth fire and check the heat of the earth fire.
The quality of the earth fire is not bad, enough to refine the Xuan-level high-grade elixir, Qin Wen took out the simple wooden box containing the Flame Blood Lotus, these days Qin Wen also often used his divine sense to probe the wooden box, and found that there was no spiritual energy escape, but he was not too sure in his heart, how long this wooden box could hold the Flame Blood Lotus.
Therefore, after seeing an earth fire mouth, he couldn't wait to refine the Flame Blood Lotus into a semi-finished pill, which would also help to preserve, and when he needed to refine the pill in the future, he could directly take out the pill and then dispense it.
After the Dan furnace was preheated, Qin Wen first took out all the elixirs to be prepared, and after the preparation was completed, Zuihou opened the quaint wooden box, and saw that the flame blood lotus was still full of spiritual energy inside, Qin Wen's slightly nervous mood eased down, it seems that the material of this wooden box is indeed not ordinary.
After Qin Wen took out a Flame Blood Lotus, he carefully put the quaint wooden box containing another Flame Blood Lotus into the storage bag, and then put all the dispensing into the Dan furnace with a technique, which required refining the semi-finished Pill and the Xuan-level high-grade elixir, Qin Wen was going to stay in the cave for a few days, and it was not too late to go to the Lingshan tribe after the Pill was refined.
This mountain peak is not far from the tribe, but in this spring and winter season when the snow covers the mountain, there are no shepherds and hunters going up the mountain, and the spirit beasts are not close to this area, so the cave where Qin Wen is located is not disturbed.
Until the sixth day, after the Flame Blood Lotus Pill was baked, Qin Wen had just put all the pills into the jade bottle, when he suddenly heard footsteps outside the cave, and then a girl's crisp voice said: "Brother Batu, I seem to smell a fragrance." ”
Qin Wen couldn't help but be slightly stunned when he heard that this accent was very similar to the voice of the Hu tribe, but his vitality in refining pills had not yet recovered, and it would be troublesome if he encountered a monk who snatched treasures and killed people like the Xuelan Mountain Range again, so he quickly put the Dan furnace into the storage bag, and then walked down the deep part of the cave to the inside.
This cave had already been explored by him at that time, it was a cave that was as transparent as a corridor inside and out, and the outside led to the other side of the mountain, so Qin Wen walked inside with confidence.
Just as Qin Wen turned a corner, he heard the voice of a young man of the Hu tribe saying, "I smelled this fragrance in Abba's tent, it is a pill refined by Dan Master. ”
Qin Wen heard the young man's voice at this time, and immediately understood, this place is far away from the Luhoro tribe, but it is relatively close to the Hu tribe, so the accent of his speech is also biased to this side, which also makes Qin Wen no longer entangled in the problem of how to communicate with the Lingshan tribe.
The footsteps of the two people came to the place where Qin Wen was refining the pill, and the girl sniffed a few times the residual fragrance of the pill in the cave and said: "The mouth of the earth fire here is still hot, it seems that the alchemy master has just finished refining the pill, are we disturbing him refining the pill?"
The young man said with some caution: "The aura of this elixir is very strong, the person refining the elixir must be a senior, he should not want to meet with us, originally I also wanted to exchange my spiritual object with my predecessor for some elixir for your cultivation, and the transaction here must be much cheaper than those monks in Daqi." ”
The girl's voice said softly, "Brother Batu, you are so good to me. ”
As he spoke, Qin Wen heard the sound of clothes hugging and rubbing against each other, and couldn't help but show a faint smile on his face, he didn't expect that he could meet two little lovers who had a tryst here when he was alchemizing.
