Chapter 52: Master Wu

readx; The next day, Li Zhe began to try to refine ten pills at a time. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Obviously, refining a pill in four hours is too inefficient. Li Zhe has completely mastered the entire refining process, and there is not much difference in the process of refining one pill and ten pills.

The only difference is that the Ning Dan process is slightly different. After all the elixir liquid is melted, refining one pill may directly condense the pill, and refining ten pills requires using divine consciousness to divide the dissolved elixir liquid into ten equal parts, and at the same time condense the pill.

Ning Dan is to calcine the mixed elixir liquid with a spiritual fire to remove the water, solidify the elixir liquid, and finally condense into an elixir. The process of Ning Dan has a great impact on the quality of the pill, because only the completely solidified pill will stop the loss of efficacy, so the secret of the Ning Dan is the word "fast", and the faster the Ning Dan is completed, the more the loss of medicinal power can be reduced. In order to reduce the time of condensing the pill, of course, the stronger the firepower, the better, but the refractory power of the pill has a limit, and too strong the fire may directly burn the pill into coke. Of course, if the firepower is too weak, the curing time of the pill is too long, which will cause a great loss of medicinal power, then the quality of the obtained pill will be greatly reduced, and it may make the refined pill fall to the level of ordinary pill. The firepower intensity of Ning Dan is extremely difficult to master, and it is extremely challenging to control fire, but it can be said to be the most difficult part of the entire alchemy process.

The technique of condensing pills is also an important difference between Cangyan alchemy and ordinary alchemy.

In ordinary alchemy, the mixed elixir liquid is divided into ten parts and calcined together, which causes a problem, each pill is at a different distance from the fire source, the fire power is not exactly the same, and the quality of the condensed elixir is also different. Under normal circumstances, only two or three pills at the optimal distance can retain the best medicinal properties, and the quality of the rest will gradually decrease, and even two or three pills will become waste pills due to poor quality, which is often said to be the pill rate. Generally, if one furnace can refine seven pills, he is a good alchemist.

Cangyan alchemy is different, when condensing the pill, he still uses his divine sense to control the ten spiritual fires to calcinate the ten pills alone, and he can also adjust the fire power by himself based on the slight difference between the pills and the pills, so the quality is guaranteed to the greatest extent, so the pills will not be lost in the pill condensing stage, and the quality of the refined pills is almost the same.

Refining ten pills at a time not only increased the medicinal materials tenfold at one time, but also increased the complexity of the condensing pill tenfold, if it was just refining ordinary pills, of course, there would be no problem, but now that he wanted to refine the pills, Li Zhe was a little worried about whether he could perfectly control the whole process.

Sure enough, the results of refining also confirmed that Li Zhe's worries were not superfluous, the complexity of the refining process, especially after the complexity of the Ning Dan increased, the stability of Li Zhe's refining of the Spiritual Pill has decreased significantly, and the success rate of refining the Spiritual Pill has dropped to about fifty percent. The six furnaces of medicinal materials refined thirty low-grade elixirs and thirty ordinary elixirs.

In the face of such a result, although Li Zhe shook his head again and again, it was not unacceptable. If Li Zhe is allowed to turn back for the sake of the success rate, he still refines one grain at a time, Li Zhe will definitely be unwilling, it is too inefficient to do so, and Li Zhe doesn't want to do anything else except alchemy. Fortunately, the medicinal materials for raising the elixir are really cheap, so there is no need to care too much. Of course, if you want to refine any rare pills in the future, you can refine them one by one, which can increase the success rate and is also very effective.

After refining all the medicinal materials in his hand, Li Zhe counted the results, there were more than 30 low-grade spirit pills, more than 40 ordinary spirit pills, and most of the quality was about eighty percent eight, which can be said to be a high-quality product in the ordinary spirit pill.

A day later, an uninvited guest arrived at Vanilla House. The visitor was an old man of about eighty years old, with white hair, white eyebrows and white beard, who seemed to have enough qi and blood, but unfortunately he was already a little old in his actions, and he was cultivating in the middle of the spirit. This old man was conjured up by Li Zhe with Yi Yan Zhu.

After the experiment of refining the in-grade Nourishing Spirit Pill was successful, Li Zhe decided to sell all the ordinary Nourishing Pills that he couldn't take, and then sell a few lower-grade Nourishing Elixirs to earn some spirit stones for later use. Li Zhe's biggest distress is that it is really difficult to sell the low-grade spirit elixir, even if this thing is only sold in a very small amount, it may attract the attention of people with a heart. Once the secret of his ability to refine the pill is exposed, his fate will be determined, and he must have let a certain super sect capture him as a slave specializing in alchemy.

This is a secret that cannot be divulged even if you die, except that Shen Zhoutian took the initiative to ask, otherwise anyone who asks will be killed and will not say, Li Zhe decided in his heart.

The image of the old man Li Zhe is also carefully designed, what he wants to sell is a low-grade elixir, if Li Zhe still goes to Vanilla House in his original appearance, it is estimated that the shopkeeper Tang will directly have a bad heart. A rookie who had just bought an alchemy furnace refined a low-grade spirit pill in less than a month, what a powerful talent this is, and I don't know how many spirit stones I can earn by selling Li Zhe to a super faction.

Li Zhe designed himself as an alchemist in the middle stage of the spirit introduction who was about to end his life, and he was addicted to alchemy all his life, and the cultivation of the middle stage of the spirit introduction could only refine the low-level elixir of the spirit cultivation pill. After refining the elixir for a lifetime, he finally perfected the refining skills of the elixir, and with the help of luck, it was acceptable to occasionally refine a few low-grade elixirs.

Li Zhelai Vanilla House also has a meaning, that is, to try the effect of Yi Yanzhu, to test whether it can really make people unable to see through their own illusion. Li Zhe entered the store, and the guy who ran the hall greeted him again and asked, "Guest officer, what are you doing?"

Li Zhe stroked his long white beard and asked with a smile, "I wonder if your store has purchased the Spiritual Cultivation Pill?"

The guy inadvertently showed a somewhat contemptuous look and replied, "Receiving is receiving, but the Raising Spirit Pill is only the lowest level of the elixir, the price is cheap, and there is no profit." Therefore, our store has high requirements for the quality of these low-grade pills, and we do not accept more than eighty percent of the quality. As for what price to buy, we have to appraise your pill before we can decide. ”

It's not that the guys in Vanilla House don't know the rules of not offending the alchemist, but the alchemist in front of him, the longevity is almost exhausted, and he can only sell the lowest-level elixir, the elixir, and the potential is exhausted, so he doesn't care too much.

Li Zhe didn't say much, took out a high-quality elixir, and threw it to the guy. The guy took the elixir and took a look, obviously the quality was above eighty percent, and hurriedly handed it over to the shopkeeper Tang. The specific quality of the pill still needs to be personally identified by the shopkeeper Tang, and the level of the guy is only half a bottle of vinegar.

When the shopkeeper Tang appraised the pill, the guy continued to greet Li Zhe, and his attitude also changed greatly, and the alchemist who could refine such a quality pill was still worthy of respect. After the shopkeeper Tang finished identifying the pill, he walked up to Li Zhe and asked politely, "I don't know what to call you?"

Li Zhe replied modestly: "The little surname is Wu." ”

Shopkeeper Tang held Li Zhe's elixir with two fingers and said, "Wu Daoyou, an ordinary elixir is worth two and a half lower-grade spirit stones, I don't need to explain this more." The quality of your elixir has reached eighty percent, which is already a boutique that is very close to the quality of the elixir, but unfortunately it is not a real elixir, and the value cannot be compared. That's it, I'll give out eight lower grade spirit stones, I don't know what Daoist friends think?" The price is fair, and Li Zhe didn't object, so he nodded.

Shopkeeper Tang asked again: "I don't know how many pills Wu Daoyou wants to sell to this store?"

Li Zhe took out a large porcelain vase and handed it to the shopkeeper Tang and said, "A total of forty grains, please ask the shopkeeper Tang to identify it." ”

Forty pills is not a small number, according to the calculation that only two or three pills in a furnace can maintain the highest level, it will take at least nearly twenty furnaces to refine forty pills of such a high-quality pill. Taking over the porcelain vase, the shopkeeper Tang couldn't help but glance at the old man surnamed Wu in front of him, refining a high-quality spirit pill may be luck, and refining it so many times can only be due to strength.

After the appraisal of the shopkeeper Tang, he found that except for a few grains that Li Zhe had just refined, the quality was about eighty percent, and there was no doubt in his heart, and when he spoke again, he was already full of smiles, and even changed his name. Shopkeeper Tang said to Li Zhe with a smile on his face: "Master Wu is really a Dan Dao holy hand, and I have received so many high-quality spiritual pills at one time, and it is the first time that I have been running this store for more than 30 years. ”

The shopkeeper Tang took out four medium-grade spirit stones, handed them to Li Zhe, and said at the same time: "Master Wu, according to the price we negotiated, a total of three hundred and twenty lower-grade spirit stones, but after receiving so many pills at one time, the store can also raise the price when it makes a move, so the owner of the small shop will also increase the purchase price a little, ten lower-grade spirit stones for one, I hope the master will not dislike it." "Shopkeeper Tang realized that Li Zhe's alchemy skills were so high, and he was already a rare master among alchemists at this stage, so he naturally wanted to take the opportunity to pull down the relationship, hoping to cover all Li Zhe's pills in the future, so he offered a high price.

Li Zhe thanked him again and again, and accepted the four medium-grade spirit stones with a smile.

In the face of such a warm greeting from the shopkeeper Tang, Li Zhe took out a small porcelain bottle, handed it to the shopkeeper Tang, and said with a smile: "I hit it off with the shopkeeper Tang, so I won't waste time at other houses, and please accept these pills from the shopkeeper Tang." ”

When the shopkeeper Tang heard that there was still a pill, he was overjoyed, he took the porcelain bottle with a smile, and took the porcelain bottle with a strong medicinal fragrance, rushing out of the bottle, and the shopkeeper Tang glanced at the bottle, and the smile instantly solidified on his face. The shopkeeper quickly closed the porcelain bottle and said respectfully to Li Zhe, "Master Wu, please talk upstairs in detail." ”

When he reached the second floor, Shopkeeper Tang asked tentatively, "Master Wu, I don't know if you have personally refined these pills." ”

Li Zhe pretended to be proud and replied, "Of course. After speaking, Li Zhe's face quickly showed a look of loss.

Li Zhe looked unwilling, and then said: "It's a pity, I have been addicted to this Tao for decades, and I didn't achieve anything until my twilight years, and my cultivation realm has been delayed. Seeing Li Zhe's such a realistic performance, Shopkeeper Tang was so bad that he couldn't speak for a while.

After a while, Li Zhe came back to his senses and apologized again and again: "The old man was sad for a while, which made the shopkeeper smile." Shopkeeper Tang laughed again and again.

Back to the topic, Shopkeeper Tang first introduced himself, of course, this move was redundant for Li Zhe. After the shopkeeper Tang identified the five lower grade spirit pills, he said: "The five grains of the lower grade spirit pill are nine out of nine, and the store is willing to purchase one hundred and sixty lower grade spirit stones, regardless of Master Wu's intentions?"

Li Zhe heard that the price was very good, so he nodded happily and agreed without thinking about it. For this master Wu who was so easy to talk to, the shopkeeper Tang was also very comfortable, so he was ready to take the spirit stone to Li Zhe.

Li Zhe waved his hand, stopped the shopkeeper Tang, and said, "Annoyance shopkeeper will prepare forty furnaces of medicinal materials for the elixir of the elixir, and settle the account together." ”

Shopkeeper Tang asked his men to prepare medicinal materials, and he asked Li Zhe tentatively: "Master Wu, your alchemy skills are so exquisite, why haven't you heard of them before?"

Li Zhe made up a story and said: "The old man does not live around Yunmeng Zongfang City, he has never been to this Fang City, and the shopkeeper Tang naturally doesn't know it. If it weren't for the sudden death of an old friend who had been working with me for decades, and his descendants decided to stop running the pill pharmacy, I wouldn't have come out to sell the pill myself. ”

Shopkeeper Tang hurriedly proposed a cooperation plan, and Li Zhe also had this intention, and the two hit it off.
