Chapter 109: Alchemy and the Cook
In the stone cave where the spirit grass was placed, Bu Fan and Xian Yun sat cross-legged opposite each other, because they were afraid that Bu Fan would burn those precious spirit grasses in the furnace if the alchemy failed, so the two of them consciously came to a place far away from the spirit grass.
"Are you ready? Xian Yun looked at Bu Fan in front of him with a serious expression and said.
And Bu Fan looked at the little guy who was swimming in the sea of spirit grass with an envious gaze as if he hadn't heard it at all.
This damn second generation of medicine actually made Bu Fan feel jealous, and ate the spirit grass as a weed, why didn't he kill you?
Originally, Bu Fan was only amazed at these spirit grasses, but seeing what the little guy was doing at this moment, Bu Fan felt more and more that the little guy was deliberately showing off.
"Ahem. Seeing that Bu Fan hadn't responded to him for a long time, Xian Yun followed Bu Fan's gaze and saw the little guy too.
Bu Fan's feeling, how could Xianyun not know, how much she hoped that the person in the position of the little guy at the moment was her.
Alas~~~
sighed in my heart, man is worse than beast, the more he compares, the worse he is.
coughed, waking up the envious, jealous and hateful Bu Fan, Xian Yun spoke.
"When refining pills, it's better to concentrate on it. ”
"Uh... Well. As soon as Xianyun said this, Bu Fan nodded awkwardly and continued.
"How are we going to do it?"
"As for alchemy, it's best to have an alchemy furnace, except for some rare pills, most of the pills don't have the assistance of the pill furnace, and there is no way to refine them. ”
As he spoke, Xianyun took out a dark green Dan furnace from the storage ring.
This Dan furnace is about the height of a five-year-old child, the diameter is about half a meter, the dark green furnace body of the Dan furnace is depicted with patterns that look like some spirit animals, although the entire Dan furnace is depicted with the pattern of spirit animals, but the appearance of this Dan furnace is very smooth to the touch, without the slightest roughness.
At the four angles at the bottom of the Dan furnace, there is a statue that looks like a dragon and a snake with its mouth open, and from the open mouth of the statue, you can faintly see that the inside of the Dan furnace is not empty, but rather meanders and twists, and finally communicates with the open mouth.
Under each statue, there are two legs of the Dan furnace standing firmly on the ground, and between the two statues there is a round hole for the alchemist to set fire to refine, but at this moment this circle is in a fan-shaped closed state.
The top of the Dan furnace was sealed by something similar to a stone tablet, and some mysterious characters were engraved on the stone tablet that Bu Fan could not understand.
"How can I refine this? I didn't even leave a crack when I wanted to put the spirit grass in it. ”
Looking at the stone tablet on the top of the Dan furnace, Bu Fan put his hand on it and lifted it vigorously, but he didn't move at all.
"Do you want me to shove it in from underneath?"
"Do you think the old lady can use those low-end goods?"
Hearing Bu Fan's words, Xian Yun glanced at Bu Fan angrily,
"The old lady's Dan furnace is really made of red iron and cold mountain stone crystal, but it cost the old lady 100,000 high-grade spirit stones, if it weren't for thinking that this is a guy to eat, you will have to use it in the future, when you sold this Dan furnace, the old lady will not be mixed to the point where she is penniless now." ”
"The alchemy furnace is so expensive?" Bu Fan said in surprise.
He had some impressions of the Red Xuantie and Hanshan Stone Crystal, which seemed to be a relatively special material, but when he heard that such a furnace was actually worth 100,000 high-grade spirit stones, he couldn't think of it.
"That's it, can the old lady use the things cheap? You have to know that the Dan furnace is like a sword in the hand of a sword cultivator to an alchemist, it must be a good thing to work, can I be stingy with myself in this regard? If I don't want you to succeed as soon as possible, I am reluctant to let you touch it." ”
After speaking, Xianyun then pointed to the stone tablet above the Dan furnace.
"When you want to put the materials, you can touch it with your spiritual sense, and you can experience the rest for yourself, try it first, familiarize yourself with this Dan furnace, so as not to explode directly after a while, I'll go over there and find you some spiritual grass to come over, and after a while, you will practice your hands first." ”
With that, Xianyun stood up and walked in the direction of the spirit grass pile.
Retracting his gaze, Bu Fan didn't think much about it, sat down in front of the closed fire inlet, stretched out his hands forward, and probed his aura into it.
After the aura came into contact with the closed fire inlet, the originally closed fire inlet slowly opened, allowing Bu Fan's aura to flow into it.
Then, before Bu Fan's aura entered the most central position, this fire entrance was like coming into contact with some man-eating beast, and Bu Fan's aura was shattered at once.
Feeling this strange feeling, Bu Fan frowned deeply.
After a while, Bu Fan, who had no clue at all, shouted loudly in line with the principle of asking if he didn't understand anything.
"Sister, my aura is broken?"
"Don't use your wind attribute aura, use your spiritual fire, otherwise what will you use to burn the spirit grass?"
After a while, Xianyun walked over to Bu Fan, threw a few handfuls of spirit grass on the ground, and spoke.
"Oh. Hearing Xianyun's words, Bu Fan nodded suddenly with realization, he did use his own wind attribute spirit root just now.
Thinking of this, Bu Fan then tried again.
This time, Bu Fan did not inject spiritual energy into it like last time, but directly used his own spiritual fire.
But fortunately, Linghuo is an "adopted son", and Bu Fan doesn't have to go out of his way to find a fire attribute exercise or something for it, as long as the consumption keeps up, you can use it if you want to.
This time, the golden-red flame entered every corner of the Dan furnace very smoothly, and the original dark green Dan furnace suddenly began to glow.
The statues on all sides also instantly seemed to come to life, and their eyes lit up with the same color as the spiritual fire.
The open mouth was faintly red, as if it was about to breathe fire.
"It's a spiritual fire!"
Xianyun, who was standing on the side, felt the high temperature coming from the spiritual fire, and couldn't help but sigh.
Fortunately, her alchemy furnace is of high quality, if it is a little bit more subordinate, it is estimated that not to mention the alchemy furnace, it is estimated that it will have to be fried before the refining begins.
After a while, seeing that Bu Fan had withdrawn the spiritual fire, Xian Yun asked.
"How?"
"This stove is a good thing. Bu Fan touched the Dan stove with his hand.
After burning for a long time, even the heat in the air has risen by some means, but this Dan furnace does not feel half hot at all, and there is even a trace of coolness transmitted to Bu Fan's hands after touching it.
"No matter how good it is, that's my sister and mine. ”
Xian Yun smiled slightly, gently knocked Bu Fan's hand off the Dan furnace, and said.
"I haven't even used you many times with my sister, and I have to use it for you now, alas~~~"
After sighing, Xianyun said again.
"Let's get down to business, what about this alchemy, you've read a lot in the previous books, and you've learned a lot about spirit grass, but if you want to become an alchemist, it's still not enough. ”
"Alchemy requires not only knowledge, talent, but also one thing..."
"Hard?" Bu Fan replied.
Glancing at Bu Fan, Xian Yun continued.
"Almost, that's experience. ”
"Let's just compare it to you, this alchemist is the same as a cook. ”
"A good chef can keep the best parts of each ingredient, and he can also make this part not only not lose its own flavor in the blend with other ingredients, but become more and more delicious. ”
And the alchemist is the same, refining the essence of the spirit grass little by little, and then slowly blending them together, and then it becomes a pill. ”
In addition to what I said above, the most similar and important thing about these two is that they both have to look at the fire, this fire is big, everything will be burned out, this fire is small, then you can't refine anything, about this, you can only look at experience. ”
"Anyway, the alchemist and the cook... Almost, don't be nervous, just stir-fry the alchemy at the beginning, you don't need to copy how delicious it is, as long as it's not mushy, it's completely okay to fail a few more times, anyway, we don't lack materials now. ”
Looking at Xianyun beside him with a smile on his face, he wanted to use words to relax and not be nervous, Bu Fan thought helplessly.
Comparing an alchemist to a chef and lowering alchemy to the level of stir-frying, when this word spreads, aren't you afraid that those alchemists who think highly of themselves will come to you and fight hard?
