Chapter 152: Sugar Man
;
For a week, Chen Cheng would only put the puppy outside at noon and evening every day, and stay in Linglong Tianfu the rest of the time, because the first thing the little sister did after school was to tease the puppy to play, Chen Cheng regretted that he shouldn't have told his family in the first place, and he even wanted to buy one back for experiments, and he was really tired of hiding for the two puppies, and he thought about leaving again in a few days, so he dispelled this idea.
After a week of feeding, the two puppies seem to have changed compared to when they bought them back, not because of their body shape, but because of their muscle strength and agility, and their comprehension of Chen Cheng's instructions has reached an unbelievable level.
Anyone who has raised a puppy knows that because it is too small and the body is not fully developed, it is very distressing to cultivate a puppy to excrete at a fixed point, but after Chen Cheng's training, as long as he tells it in advance, of course, it is only limited to Chen Cheng's orders.
In addition, the attachment of the two puppies to Chen Cheng also made Chen Qian and Chen Jingwen jealous, and they were not happy to hug each other, but Chen Cheng asked them to go wherever they wanted, so they ran over strangely, which was simply smart against the sky.
The outstanding performance of the two little guys is naturally not deliberately trained by Chen Cheng, he has no spare time to take care of the puppy, and it takes a lot of time to practice and alchemy every day, and Lin Wanru is also responsible for taking care of the space, and he likes Chen Cheng mainly because of the role of the master-servant contract.
Although the power of the contract is strong, but the puppy still has to comprehend it, this is the wonderful use of the Lingcao Pill, through a week's * test, Chen Cheng can already confirm that the effect of the Lingcao Pill is not a problem at all, even if there is a deficiency, it is because he has just learned alchemy, and his level is limited.
This time. Chen Cheng's proficiency in firepower control and the use of Danjue has made a qualitative leap, but he wants to improve his speed and enhance his skills. It's going to be changed to a more complicated elixir, after all, Baicao Dan only uses three elixirs, and there are many places where you can't accumulate experience.
The second pill that Chen Cheng chose was the Pei Yuan Dan that Qi refining period cultivators usually took, and he had two bottles on hand, which was the largest number of pills that Lieshan Jin gave him when he left Sunlight City. Three bottles were consumed in two months, and only the last two bottles remained.
With the aid of elixir, the cultivation speed has been greatly increased. If it weren't for the delay in recuperating from his injuries, it is estimated that he would have broken through to the ninth level of Qi refining and cultivation, and his speed would have increased but the number of spirit stones consumed every day had not increased, which meant that he had saved spirit stones. Chen Cheng chose Pei Yuandan to practice. Once successful, there will be no more worries about the pill for a period of time in the future.
Pei Yuan Dan needs thirteen kinds of elixirs, and the requirements for the year are not too high, as long as it is a mature elixir, after Chen Cheng compared, he was not lacking, so he told Lin Wanru to increase the cultivation of these elixirs, and Chen Cheng also began to study the pill.
Before alchemy, you must carefully scrutinize the Dan prescription. Not only to be familiar with the spirit herb, but also to be familiar with the pharmacology of each elixir. There is also the time when the elixir is put into the furnace, and the order before and after is exquisite, and finally the role of truly comprehending the principle of Danfang collocation.
This is based on the process of reverse deduction of the Dan Fang, through reasoning, the alchemist's understanding of the Dan Fang is more thorough, and the talented alchemist can also fine-tune the Dan Fang according to the need, and the medicinal effect may be more effective.
Different doctors will have different understandings of pharmacology, and the dosage of drugs will be different, and the same is true for Danfang, the same Peiyuan Dan, different alchemists, the medicinal effects of refining will also be different, uneven.
Chen Cheng is just thinking about this, if he wants to reach that step, it is simply a fantasy to not have a few years or even decades of experience accumulation, and the cultivation of alchemists is slow to improve, because after indulging in alchemy, the cultivation time is compressed, and it is precisely this reason that fish and bear's paws cannot be both.
It's not without exceptions, if you have a good understanding and luck against the sky, there are people who don't delay, but it's too rare, at least it doesn't exist among today's monks, otherwise the influence of the Elixir Mountain will be even stronger.
In addition to alchemy, Chen Cheng took the time to reorganize the harvest of the medicine garden, first of all, the elixir, after reading the records in the jade slip, the elixir in the medicine garden, most of them can be identified, and those few spirit fruits and spirit tea trees are also among them, even so, there are still nearly two hundred kinds of elixir that cannot be confirmed, so I can only find an opportunity to talk about it.
The unknown elixir included the magical little tree that was moved from the Su Hongye Cave Mansion, and what made Chen Cheng puzzled was that the small tree had produced countless grapes-sized fruits soon after it was transplanted to the Linglong Heavenly Mansion, but until now there was no sign of ripeness.
The growth of the small tree is gratifying, the vitality is vigorous, and there is no fault with it, Chen Cheng sometimes wonders if this is the fairy fruit that blooms for thousands of years, bears fruit in 10,000 years, and can only ripen in a few years.
In addition to the harvest of a large number of elixirs, what surprised Chen Cheng the most was those ice crystal piths, Arthur once held a little ice crystal pith the size of a perfume bottle and felt distressed, Chen Cheng was still distressed by the small amount after getting it, but now he has more than one amount in his hands.
The ice crystal essence is precious, but Chen Cheng doesn't know how to use it, Arthur killed himself when he used it, Chen Cheng is neither an ice spirit root nor an ice spell, this treasure can only wait for Lao Jin and the hairball to wake up before making plans.
There is another gain in the medicine garden, that is, the fire spirit has devoured some kind of treasure, and now his power is beyond Chen Cheng's thoughts, anything thrown to the fire spirit will melt in an instant, and if Chen Cheng is willing, he can even make a stone mist disappear in the blink of an eye.
Chen Cheng couldn't understand why the fire spirit couldn't hurt himself after being refined by him, where did the temperature of the flame go, he couldn't explain this phenomenon in a scientific way, but it didn't affect his love for the fire spirit, and the alchemy plan had to be completed by the fire spirit, which was already Chen Cheng's indispensable helper.
As for things like jade slips, they still need to be digested slowly, and they can't chew it if they are greedy, and they will talk about it when he has gained something from alchemy.
The first furnace of Pei Yuan Dan failed as expected, and Chen Cheng did not continue to refine the Dan, and began to summarize the gains and losses, and did not move the Dan furnace for three days, no
It was the waste of the elixir that he was distressed about, but it was impossible to succeed until the problem was solved.
On the fifth day, Chen Cheng refined Pei Yuan Dan for the second time, but unexpectedly succeeded, but the Cheng Dan rate was too low, and one furnace of spirit pills theorized that there were twelve pills, and he only harvested three pills, which meant that the Cheng Dan rate was only two and a half percent.
No matter what, it always succeeded, Chen Cheng had more confidence in his heart, and understood that he still had those shortcomings, and after thinking about it, he successively refined the second and third furnaces, and these two times were not so lucky, all of them ended in failure, and the excitement that had just been ignited was ruthlessly extinguished.
"The wrong place has obviously been corrected, why did it fail?" Chen Cheng was a little puzzled, he didn't believe in evil and tried again, but still didn't succeed.
Looking at the scorched pill in the Dan furnace, Chen Cheng's heart was full of unspeakable bitterness, but he was not discouraged, he wanted to continue but had to stop because of time, the little sister was about to get out of school, he also needed to calm down, and it was not too late to figure out the key to the problem again.
After cleaning the Dan furnace, Chen Cheng left the space with the two puppies and came to the front yard, Chen's mother had already gone home in advance to prepare dinner, because she was not used to outsiders disturbing, so the family has not asked the maid to help, the housework is Feng Jingyi and the third aunt are responsible for taking care of it, Chen Cheng will occasionally do what he can when he is at home, and he doesn't feel hard when he gets used to this kind of life.
After dinner, watching his family play with the puppy, Chen Cheng walked out alone, he just wanted to go out for a walk, although the failure of alchemy was not a blow, but he always felt uncomfortable in his heart, and it was also a good thing to come out and adjust his mood.
Chen Cheng rarely came out at night, and after walking for a while, he found a small temporary stall painting candy figures on the side of the street, and two children, accompanied by their mothers, were watching a master pour patterns on a marble slab with boiled syrup.
The master has a good memory, the small spoon scoops the syrup and paints it in one go, there is no slightest stagnation in the middle, after the syrup is quickly cooled on the slate, I see the master gently shoveling with a shovel, and the sugar man is easily scooped.
Walking to the front, I was tired of watching the old man boil sugar, apply oil, paint, stick bamboo sticks, and shovel candy people, until nearly an hour later, the customers gradually decreased, and after the last customer left, the old man looked up at Chen Cheng and smiled: "Is there a sugar man?"
"Look at how many things you only make, do you have any other patterns?" Chen Cheng had been thinking, and suddenly heard the question, and asked a little embarrassedly.
"Hehe......" the old man said with a smile, "I've seen you here for a long time, I'm afraid I don't want to buy candy man!"
"Not before, but now I'm a little interested, but I just want a special pattern, if I can......" Chen Cheng chatted with the old man with interest.
Without waiting for Chen Cheng to finish speaking, the old man replied: "It depends on what pattern you need, if it's not complicated, it's not that it can't be done, but the price is twice as expensive." ”
A sugar man has five yuan and eight yuan, even if it is ten yuan a piece, it is only twenty yuan more than twice as expensive, Chen Cheng agreed casually, and said his request.
The old man nodded without saying much, and boiled the syrup again, Chen Cheng's requirements are not complicated, but they are by no means simple, according to him to make a portrait, it is not difficult to outline the character pattern with lines, but it is not easy to meet the requirements.
If it's a comic, I guess many students can do it, but if you can't break it with syrup, you need a certain level.
Five minutes later, Chen Cheng dropped a hundred-yuan bill, carefully took his sugar man and returned home almost all the way, without bothering to talk to his family, after giving the sugar man to his sister, he ran back to the room alone, and explained not to disturb for the time being.
The sugar man's painting was not expressive, but Chen Cheng seemed to have thought of something, and he hurried back because he was worried that the hard-won inspiration would disappear.
Dodging into the space, calmly making all preparations, Chen Cheng firmly believed that this time the Pei Yuan Dan would definitely be able to be refined.
ps: I'm so tired! I have to catch up with tomorrow's draft, don't say it, hurry up and code words!
