Chapter 9 Beauty is gracious
"You. Tell me, what is the most important thing in alchemy?" After the white-haired old man finished his lecture, he suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed at Mo Chong. Mo Chong was stunned for a moment, but the surrounding monks all turned their eyes, and he had no choice but to stand up and say, "This ...... The most important thing in alchemy should be aura, right?"
"Hahahaha!" As soon as Mo Chong said this, the audience suddenly burst into laughter. Bai Shibo also said before, 'Alchemy is fire control', this kid is good, and directly came up with a sentence 'The most important thing in alchemy should be aura'. At this time, everyone looked at Mo Chong with gloating eyes, waiting for the white-haired old man to be furious.
But unexpectedly, the white-haired old man not only did not get angry, but also nodded slightly and said, "Not bad." Reiki is essential for alchemy. Not only alchemy, but also aura is equally important for refining tools and talismans. ”
When everyone heard this, they suddenly became silent, but they couldn't help muttering in their hearts: "Uncle Bai, is this different from what you said before?" Of course, no one would really say this idea, but they all held their breath and waited for the white-haired old man's next words.
The white-haired old man looked around at everyone for a week, and then asked, "What is alchemy?"
'Alchemy, of course, is refining medicinal herbs into pills. The thought came to the minds of all the people almost instantly, but they all kept silent in a tacit manner.
The white-haired old man sighed and said, "Of course, alchemy is to refine medicinal materials into pills, what have you learned all these years?" After speaking, he sighed again, and then continued: "The materials needed for alchemy are often decades, hundreds of years of elixir. Let the medicinal materials with different or even opposite medicinal properties be fused into pills, not only the year of the medicinal materials is strict, but the weight of each other must not be different in the slightest. But one thing, have you ever thought about how much heaven and earth aura was contained in the elixir of the previous year?"
"In the process of alchemy, the elixir constantly volatilizes the aura under the firepower, which is the biggest obstacle to the formation of the elixir. Because the aura in the outside world is much thinner than the aura in the Dan furnace, the aura will naturally continue to escape from the Dan furnace. But we can't seal the Dan furnace, because another purpose of alchemy is to use fire to smelt out the toxicity of the medicinal materials that are not suitable for the body, if the Dan furnace is sealed, the toxicity of the medicinal materials will continue to remain in the elixir, which is not much different from taking the elixir alive. ”
Some of the words said by the white-haired old man were what everyone had thought, and some were unheard of. At this time, the white-haired old man went deep into the dissection, and everyone was excited, today's lesson may improve his alchemy level by a large level.
The white-haired old man paused, and then said, "The greater the difference between the aura in the outside world and the aura in the Dan furnace, the more unfavorable it will be for the formation of the pill. However, it is well known. Even in the places where the aura of the Southern Liang Kingdom is the strongest, the aura is only seventy percent higher than that of ordinary regions. This little difference in aura can't stop how much aura leaks out. Therefore, we can only settle for the next best thing, starting from the heat of alchemy and the timing of opening the furnace to take the pill. ”
"Uncle Shi, what if you set up a spirit gathering array outside the Dan furnace!?" This time, the white-haired old man had just finished speaking, and someone immediately stood up and asked.
The white-haired old man shook his head and said, "You haven't opened the Dan Furnace and seen it, have you?" No matter what kind of Dan Furnace it is, there must be a small Spirit Gathering Array inside, which is used to prevent the spiritual energy in the Dan Furnace from leaking out and gathering the spiritual energy around the Dan Furnace. Therefore, it will not be useful to set up a spirit gathering circle again. ”
The questioner touched the back of his head and sat down dumbfoundedly. The heart said, 'The price of the Dan furnace is not cheap, who is such a loser, take it apart and look at it?'
The white-haired old man glanced around at everyone, and when he saw that no one stood up and asked questions again, he immediately waved his sleeves and floated away. When the figure of the white-haired old man disappeared from the hall, everyone in the hall immediately exploded with a 'boom' and began to discuss what the white-haired old man said just now. These people's words are naturally full of all kinds of special nouns, and Mo Chong doesn't understand it, and he doesn't bother to listen to it. A young man in white with a long and jade body came to Mo Chong at this time and said with a smile: "Senior Brother Mo, right?"
Although Mo Chong didn't recognize the young man in white, he guessed from the eyes of the people around him that this person's identity must be different, and he hurriedly bowed down and said, "Yes, Mo Chong is in Xia." ”
The white-clothed young man shook his head with a smile and said, "Senior Brother Mo doesn't need to be nervous. I am Xiang Tianyuan, the chief disciple of the Alchemy Hall. Since Senior Brother Mo has joined our Alchemy Hall, he naturally has to register. Uncle Bai has never asked about these trivial matters, and he can only take care of them in the future. As he spoke, he took out a red roster from his bosom.
"Oh, I see. I'm tired of my brother. Mo Chong breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately took out his identity token and handed it to Xiang Tianyuan.
Xiang Tianyuan saw that Mo Chong handed over a bronze nameplate, and was slightly stunned, revealing a look of astonishment. However, his self-control was clearly good, and the look of astonishment disappeared only for a moment, and then a friendly smile appeared on his face again. In front of Mo Chong, he opened the roster in his hand, and wrote on it: On a certain day, a certain month, a certain year, Mo Chong, a bronze disciple, joined the Alchemy Hall.
After recording it, he put the roster away, and said with a smile to Tianyuan: "There is something that Senior Brother is a little curious, I don't know if it is convenient for Senior Brother to talk about it." ”
Mo Chong was stunned for a moment and said, "Oh, what questions does Senior Brother have? ”
Xiang Tianyuan said: "Speaking of this matter, I think the senior brothers present will be curious. You are the person brought by Zhao Shibo personally, but you are not from the Zhao family. After thinking about it, I can't think of the Mo family in the Southern Liang State, could it be that Senior Brother Mo is from another country? Oh, if it is inconvenient for Senior Brother......" As soon as Xiang Tianyuan's words came out, almost all the people present looked over, and they were indeed very curious.
Mo Chong shook his head and said, "Oh, there's nothing bad to say about this matter. It's not that he was born in a family of cultivating immortals, it's just a casual cultivation. As soon as Mo Chong's words came out, everyone was stunned, no wonder it was a bronze disciple, it turned out to be a loose cultivator. But a new problem arises again. Since Mo Chong was only a casual cultivator, how could he labor Master Zhao to personally come forward to ask for a place for him to be a disciple of the Alchemy Hall? You must know that although Master Bai's cultivation is not high, the level of alchemy is also well-known in the Southern Liang Kingdom, and it is not easy for ordinary people to learn alchemy under him.
Xiang Tianyuan smiled and was about to say something more, but when he saw the passage behind Mo Chong, his eyes lit up, and he said in surprise: "Huh!?Senior Sister Zhao!?Why do you have time to come to our Alchemy Hall today?"
At this time, there was a pink figure at the entrance of the passage walking towards this side, it was Zhao Xuening. Regarding Xiang Tianyuan's question, Zhao Xuening just nodded politely and said, "Oh, good to Senior Brother Xiang." With that, his eyes scanned the crowd.
When Mo Chong saw this scene, he immediately secretly screamed in his heart, and Zhao Xuening also found Mo Chong's figure at this time, and immediately said happily: "Mo ...... Mo Chong! You're here! I've got something to look for you!" After speaking, without waiting for Mo Chong to answer, he took his hand and walked quickly towards the passage.
Mo Chong's heart at this time was mixed. Being held by a great beauty is naturally very pleasant, but the needle-like gazes of the senior brothers behind him make him feel like a man. Especially Xiang Tianyuan. From Xiang Tianyuan's expression at the first glance of Zhao Xuening, Mo Chong knew that this chief disciple of the Alchemy Hall was very interesting to Zhao Xuening, but unfortunately Zhao Xuening at this moment ignored him, and instead pulled Mo Chong up with great enthusiasm. This made Mo Chong invisibly offend this chief disciple of the Alchemy Hall.
Since Senior Brother Xiang is the chief disciple, he naturally has some stomach. Besides, it's not up to me to decide this matter at the moment. Mo Chong silently comforted himself in his heart while looking back. But just this glance immediately made Mo Chong's heart sink, and he saw Xiang Tianyuan staring at him like water, with a pair of eyes flashing with a clear color. Apparently he was already hostile to Mo Chong.
'If you're looking for me, you can look at the occasion and choose the way.' Aside from your peerless appearance, even your identity as a young lady of the Zhao family, that is enough to attract more than half of the male disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect. Mo Chong's heart was full of bitterness. However, seeing Zhao Xuening's excited face, she finally couldn't say anything to blame. After leaving the Alchemy Hall, Mo Chong smiled and said, "Senior sister, what are you looking for me?"
When Zhao Xue Ning heard this, she immediately frowned, stopped and said, "What did you call me just now?"
Mo Chong said: "Senior sister." ”
Zhao Xuening's brows furrowed even tighter: "When did I let you call me Senior Sister?"
Mo Chong said: "You started earlier than me, and your cultivation is higher than mine. Isn't it natural for me to call you Senior Sister?"
Zhao Xuening shook her head again and again: "No, no." When you call out 'Senior Sister', I feel like I'm a few years older. You're obviously older than me. ”
Mo Chong smiled: "This is the rule. ”
Zhao Xuening shook her head: "I don't care." In short, you can't call me senior sister. Either call me Ning'er, or call me junior sister. ”
The name 'Ning'er' Mo Chong didn't dare to call it, so Mo Chong had no choice but to say, "Okay." Senior Sister Zhao. What is Senior Sister Zhao looking for me?"
Hearing that Mo Chong changed his mouth so lightly, Zhao Xuening immediately became happy again, and then reached into his arms, took out a bright silver, round thing and handed it to Mo Chong and said, "Oh, this is for you!"
Mo Chong hesitantly took it and said, "This ...... Is it a Dan furnace?"
Zhao Xuening nodded and said, "Yes." I know from the third brother that he stuffed you here and didn't prepare a Dan furnace for you to use for alchemy. I didn't have a Dan furnace to learn what alchemy, so I got one and sent it to you. ”
Mo Chong touched his nose and said in a low voice, "Thank you." Although he saved Zhao Xuening, it was just an unintentional move at that time. Now Zhao Xuening spares no effort to help himself, which really touches him a little.
