Zhang Qian picked up one of the jade bottles, opened the seal, and smelled a strong medicinal fragrance.

Although he is not good at alchemy, but he is proficient in medical science, and the furnace is different from ordinary people, extremely sensitive to external things, it is such a simple sniff, he can distinguish the efficacy and quality of this elixir, and the medicinal properties can be classified as the primary class A, and there are very few impurities, not like Wang Shu Lian Pei Yuan Dan, there is a feeling of smoke and fire in the inhalation of the medicinal incense, although he doesn't care much about this, but it can be seen that Xu Zhao has a lot of intentions.

"This bottle is the Gushou Pill of Guben Peiyuan, the cultivator can take it to nourish the essence of Qi Haiyuan, mortals can take it to strengthen their lives and even increase their longevity, so it is called Gushou Dan, the medicinal properties are extremely mild, and it is harmless to take it for a long time, but it is a three-point poison of medicine, and it is necessary to pay attention to the cycle when taking it, and you can take one pill every ten days. Xu Zhao explained very seriously, and then there was a hint of pretentiousness between his eyebrows, "My Gushou Dan is different from what others have refined. ”

"How is it different?" Zhang Qian asked casually.

"It has been forty-seven years since the beginning of the old decay, and he has been intoxicated with alchemy for nearly thirty years, although he is limited to cultivation and cannot practice high-level elixirs, but refining this kind of primary-level elixir has incomparably rich experience and experience, and has his own set of methods to degrade medicinal poison impurities. ”

Xu Zhao stroked his beard and said proudly, but saw Zhang Qian's face calm and seemed to be unresponsive.

"The Gushou Pill refined by others has a lot more impurities and toxins than mine, and it takes more time to refine one piece, so the taking cycle may be fifteen or twenty days. Xu Zhao directly pointed out the key to it, but seeing that Zhang Qian still had no reaction, he simply said more bluntly: "This means that people can only take two Gushou Pills a month, while junior brother you can take three pills a month, wouldn't this realm improve faster?"

"But it doesn't mean much to me. Zhang Qian said bluntly.

"Ugh. Xu Zhao was speechless by his words, but he couldn't understand it, the medicinal poison impurities can be said to be the key to determining the value of a pill, second only to its grade, the same pill, because of the different impurities it contains, the value may even be several times different, how can it be said that it is not meaningful? He was still a little unwilling to be denied like this, and continued: "My pill is exchanged on the market, and one pill can be exchanged for two ordinary Gushou pills. ”

"Oh?" Zhang Qian raised his eyebrows slightly, "Are you talking about the mutual market at the foot of Tianlu Peak?"

"Is there anything else?" Xu Zhao glanced at him puzzled.

Zhang Qian didn't say much, he was a little impressed by this Xu Zhao, his system was strong, and the residue of refining medicine poison was as easy as eating and drinking, so he didn't think that his ability was of any use before, but after mentioning this, he found that this person had a lot of use value, but he had already said it before, but at this time, he didn't regret it, and he didn't think about it anymore, and continued: "How much medicinal materials do I have left that I gave you before?"

Xu Zhao waved to the dear disciple, who handed over a list.

Zhang Qian took a look at it, knew it in his heart, and said casually: "It seems that there are still a lot left." ”

When Xu Zhao heard this, his expression seemed to be a little abnormal, and he said in a low voice: "A furnace has been refined." ”

"Only one furnace broke?" Zhang Qian was a little surprised, but when he saw Xu Zhao's face pale, he knew that he would be wrong about what he meant, and continued: "A total of eight furnaces of pills were refined, and only one furnace was broken, this success rate should be quite high, I naturally won't blame you, if you want the horse to run and the horse not to eat grass, there is no such reason in the world." Although his tone was calm, he was already impressed by this Xu Zhao in his heart, and this person was also a genius.

The entire Xiaowei Mountain is afraid that he will not be able to find him like this, his qualifications are a mess, but he is so obsessed with alchemy, and he has been obsessed with it for thirty years.

The cultivation of the six arts is not like cultivation, it requires qualifications and temperament, as long as you can endure loneliness, you can have some achievements.

And if you want to have great achievements, in addition to the need for a relative realm as the foundation, time, hard work is essential, the world has not heard of a step to the heavens, no more than the Tao, the qualifications of the outstanding by the heavens, and even have a standing epiphany, so the six arts attainments are extremely rare, can even be said to be precious, after all, the six arts are different from the avenue, no matter how refined the cultivation is and can not be considered life, few people are wasted on it.

Xu Zhao naturally didn't know what Zhang Qian was thinking, and he was still thinking about his own value, and continued: "Actually, the medicinal materials I spent now are just ordinary things, and there are still a few precious ones left in the batch of medicinal materials you gave, and I keep them." ”

"Why not?" Zhang Qian asked.

Xu Zhao said: "I once got an ancient prescription, called Hengdu Dan, although the grade is only the intermediate level C, but no matter what the previous cultivation realm is, taking this Dan can immediately attract the bitter sea heart demon, if you can cross, then the Dao heart is stable, the Yuan Jing gathers, and enters the realm of Yuan Jing Yunbu, and the few remaining medicinal materials are the things needed to refine this Heng Dan, but now I have not made up my mind." ”

"Hmm, is there such a strange pill in the world?" Zhang Qian had a trace of doubt in his heart and asked, "Where did you get it from?" ”

"This pill recipe was given to me when Wang Shicheng begged me to refine the pill. After Xu Zhao finished speaking, he saw that Zhang Qian didn't seem to understand, so he explained: "The first common name of the true biography is Wang Yongxin, this Wang Shicheng is his younger brother, the head of the inner disciples, but unfortunately he is obsessed with spells, pursues the improvement of combat power, and the realm of Taoism has not been able to go up, so he asked for this Danfang from nowhere, and asked me to refine it for him, but unfortunately he couldn't get through the bitter sea of demons and died." ”

"It's hard to overcome the demons in your heart, and there are many ordinary people who can't hide, how can there be such a disaster, and death is not wronged. Zhang Qian said casually.

Xu Zhao was afraid that he would misunderstand, so he hurriedly explained: "You don't necessarily have to take this pill in person, there are really few people who can see it like you, junior brother, there are many people who are so ambitious, as long as you tell the effect of this crossing pill, someone will definitely offer a high price in exchange." ”

"Why are you so eager?" Zhang Qian's fingertips gently scratched the corner of the table, and suddenly spoke, with a hint of doubt in his indifferent eyes.

He had agreed with Xu Zhao before, as long as he helped him refine the pill well, he would let him go after the matter was completed, as for the judging standard of the word "good", it was not harsh, what Xu Zhao had done before was enough, and even made him a little surprised, this old man would do his best, and now he offered to help him refine the Heng Dan, which was purely to cause trouble on himself, and his previous attitude of wanting to draw a line with himself was like two people.

Xu Zhao was shocked by a word, looked panicked, got up and stretched to the ground, and said respectfully: "I have now sacrificed blood to refine this Hell Fire Pill Furnace, and the first one will not spare me in the future, so I hope that my junior brother will protect me well and keep me by my side to be an alchemist." ”

"I'm a mud bodhisattva crossing the river, it's hard to protect myself, how can I protect you?"

Zhang Qian's tone seemed to be joking, but there was no smile on his face, and he looked very serious.

Xu Zhao was a little cramped by this question, he didn't know how to answer, he actually didn't dare to believe that Zhang Qian would be able to win the game with the first seat in the future, this was just a bet without a choice, but he didn't dare to say what he really thought in his heart.

I can only deal with it vaguely," the junior brother laughed. ”

Zhang Qian was as calm as ever, but his attitude had taken a 180-degree turn, nodded, and said, "Then you can help me with alchemy, I just need your ability." With that, he kept silent, just looked at him quietly.

If he is suspicious, he will kill this person directly, and it is the most troublesome thing to deceive.

Of course, he would not think that his current judgment must be right, if this person really has other plans, it will not be too late to kill him in the future.

Of course, Xu Zhao didn't understand his unusual way of thinking, and he was furious when he saw it, and asked tremblingly, "Nothing else?"

"Hmm. He nodded, and then seemed to think of something, and said: "Don't be so shy back, if there is anything in the future, just say it simply, don't let me bother guessing and guessing, and you will go back and forth from where I am annoyed, in addition, I have clear grievances, I will naturally give you a reward for your alchemy, of course, if you harm my heart and let me find out, then you will kill yourself and complain about me." ”

"Don't dare, don't dare. Xu Zhao shook his head again and again.

Zhang Qian didn't think about how credible his words were, so he changed the topic and said to himself: "Then if you want to refine the Hengdu Dan, then you can refine it." ”

Xu Zhao didn't expect Zhang Qian to be so free and easy, and his trust in him was even more evident, he was a little moved for a while, nodded again and again, and said: "Yes, I will definitely refine this crossing pill for my junior brother, and I will ensure that there will be no mistakes, but there is still one thing missing." ”

"Come on. Zhang Qian said casually, since Xu Zhao was talking, then he could probably find this thing by himself.

"Hooked snake gall. Xu Zhao said word by word.
