"Are those two little ones in there now?" asked Ahn asked.

"Still in a coma, does Elder An want to go in and have a look?" Zhong Wuji said.

"Look. ”

An Zai'er followed Zhong Wuji, entered the inner room, and saw two sleeping teenagers lying on two small beds. His gaze lingered on He Ding for a moment, and then turned to Long Li.

"Is this the half-human, half-dragon kid?" Ann approached, carefully examining Long Li's face.

"Exactly. ”

"It's not bad, but these two little horns are quite distinctive. Ann commented on it.

"Isn't Elder An going to take a look at the other little guy?" Zhong Wuji said.

"That human? what's so nice, humans all look the same. Ann waved her hand in her ear.

Zhong Wuqi took some small medicine bottles in the room, held them in his hands, and then turned to An Zai'er and said, "If Elder An has nothing else to do, please go back, I am going to refine the marrow and bone cutting pill for this little guy now." ”

An Zai'er nodded, he knew that the most taboo thing for the alchemist when refining the pill was that someone was disturbing him, otherwise it would easily lead to the failure of alchemy because of distraction, he said: "After three days, all the new disciples who have entered the mountain will go to the Sansheng Cave to participate, don't forget." ”

Zhong Wuji nodded.

After Ann left, Zhong Wuji moved to another room, where there was a huge furnace ding, similar in appearance to the small ding in the main house, with the same lines on it. There was a raging fire under the stove, and the whole room was filled with a scorching air current.

Zhong Wuqi took out the medicinal materials in the bag, there were dozens of medicinal materials, but unlike other alchemists, there was only one copy of each medicinal material. Ordinary alchemists will prepare several copies of each medicinal material when refining the elixir to prevent the embarrassment of having no medicinal materials after refining failure. But at the level of Zhong Wuji's seventh-grade alchemist, refining a fifth-grade pill is more than enough, and this is also a manifestation of self-confidence.

"It's almost over. Zhong Wuzhi carefully felt the temperature inside the furnace, as an alchemist, controlling the temperature is a skill that must be mastered. To refine the elixir, the temperature must be precise, a higher or less will increase the failure rate of alchemy exponentially, and even if it is refined, the effect of the elixir must not be the best.

Zhong Wuji secretly activated his true qi, and then his two hands slowly glowed with a white glow. If you look closely at Zhong Wuji's hand, you will find that this hand is smooth and delicate, with slender fingers, without a trace of scars and rough places, and it is fairer and more beautiful than many women's hands.

Because hands are to alchemists what swords are to swordsmen. Some swordsmen value their swords as life, and so do alchemists. Alchemists need a pair of flexible and sensitive hands to strengthen their control over the more detailed parts of alchemy.

For example, if you feel the temperature with your hands, the temperature felt by the thick skin and smooth and delicate skin is already far away, not to mention alchemy. The alchemist must have a thorough grasp of the pharmacology of each herb, so that he can manipulate the herb with his fingers and know how to extract the most essential part.

I saw Zhong Wuji move his slender fingers slightly, and a slender herb tree was surrounded by white light, slowly rising from the pile of herbs. Then with a flick of his finger, the herb flew into the furnace.

"First of all, the blood grass. ”

Zhong Wuzhi stared intently at the changes in the herbs inside the furnace, his fingers beating flexibly, and the herbs in the furnace were constantly being kneaded, rotated, and tumbled under Zhong Wuzhi's long-distance control.

As the water evaporated, the essence of the Living Blood Grass slowly seeped out under Zhong Wuji's control, and finally became a drop of brown liquid, suspended in the furnace.

"Next, Spirit Bone Flower. ”

At the moment when that drop of essence was formed, Zhong Wuzhi controlled the next herb and flew into the furnace without staying for a moment.

The amount of essence of each medicinal material is different, and the time to form the essence is also different, if the essence is not protected too early, the slightest delay, the essence will be instantly evaporated by the high temperature, and everything in front will be lost.

There are dozens of medicinal materials needed to refine the Bone Cleansing Pill, which means that Zhong Wuji needs to keep in mind the moment when the essence of each medicinal material is formed, and there is also the order in which the medicinal materials are put in, which shows how powerful the memory and concentration are required to refine a pill.

Therefore, not just anyone can become an alchemist, and those who can become an alchemist are often those who are diligent, hardworking, tenacious and hardworking, and talent is never the most important.

Two hours passed, and there was only one herb left on the ground at this moment, and a black pill gradually formed in the furnace.

Even if it was Zhong Wuji, a few beads of sweat appeared on his forehead at this time.

This is the last and most critical herb, and if it fails here, then all the efforts made in the past will be in vain.

Zhong Wuji's eyes were fixed on this last medicine, his hands did not hesitate or tremble at this time, as if everything had been rehearsed, his fingers waved rapidly, and the herb swirled in the furnace, stretched, and finally turned into a drop of essence and fell on the black pill.

The surface of the black elixir became smooth, as if emitting a faint faint light.

"Whew. Zhong Wuji let out a long breath and took out the black elixir. With his other hand, he wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead, and he looked at the pill in his hand, showing a smile of relief.

First time!

Even if it is a five-rank pill, for a strong person like Zhong Wuqi, the energy consumption is huge. He flipped the marrow cleansing pill over and over again, and said, "This enhanced version of the marrow washing and bone cutting pill should be enough for him." ”

Then Zhong Wuzhi put the pill in a wooden box, and turned around and entered the inner room with a tired expression.

"Whew, it's been a long time since I've been so tired. ”

The effect of this marrow washing and bone cutting pill that he specially refined for He Ding exceeded the past, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a six-pin pill.

Even if it's as strong as him, he needs to rest.

A day later.

He Ding, who had been in a coma for nearly two days, finally opened his eyes, his head was still a little swollen and painful due to the terrifying pressure of Qidao's prohibition, and the wounds and broken bones on his body had long since healed, he supported himself and sat up from the bed.

"Where is this?"

He Ding looked around, he was sitting in a room made of bamboo, there were a few wooden tables and chairs in the room, the air was filled with a faint fragrance, he took a deep breath, and found that the swelling pain in his head was much better.

"You're finally awake. A middle-aged man He Ding had never seen before walked in from the door, he was wearing a cyan robe, his face was quite white, his skin was smooth, and he looked like he should be well maintained.

"Who are you?" He Ding asked instinctively vigilantly.

"Don't be nervous, I'm not a bad person. The middle-aged man was gentle and smiled, "You shouldn't know me yet, so I'll introduce myself." I am the elder of Niu Qishan, Zhong Wuji, you can call me Elder Zhong. ”

"Elder Zhong?" He Ding frowned, he didn't know much about Niu Qishan before, he only knew the names of the two elders.

Zhong Wuqi took off a jade token from his waist, put it in front of He Ding's eyes, and said, "Look, this is my elder token. ”

He Ding looked at it, the token was engraved with a bell character, and the word elder was engraved on the back, and he secretly thought: "This guy doesn't look like a bad person, let's believe him first." ”

"The bell...... Elder, where are we now?"

"Naturally, it is still on Niuqi Mountain, and you were too seriously injured on Qidao that day, so I took the two of you to me for cultivation. Zhong Wuji said.

"The two of us?" He Ding was stunned.

"Well, look behind you. ”

He Ding only realized that there was a constant sound of snoring behind him at this time, and when he looked back, he saw a red-haired boy lying on the bed in a large shape, snoring like thunder, and sleeping soundly.

"Long Li?" He Ding called out.

"You were much more seriously injured than him, but I didn't expect you to wake up before him. Zhong Wuzhi said, "The broken bones are connected in one day, which is not something ordinary people can do." ”

When He Ding heard this, he looked back at Zhong Wuqi and found that there was a hint of inscrutable meaning in his eyes when he looked at him. He Ding, who looked at him with this look, was a little panicked, and said in his heart, could it be that his secret was discovered?
