After the investigation bureau learned of the situation, it did not dare to act rashly, and for the sake of safety, it drove away from the farm, preparing to wait for Liu Zhendong to come out and continue to follow and observe Liu Zhendong.

After arriving at the farm, Liu Zhendong found that Lao Wang was already sitting in the hall, Zhang Zhen warmly received Liu Zhendong, and then took Liu Zhendong to a room, looking at the shelves densely placed with medicinal materials, Liu Zhendong said: "No, Director Zhang, are you trying to exhaust me?"

Lao Wang said slowly from behind him: "Do you think that's all? I'm sorry, this is only a small part of it." ”

Liu Zhendong's eyes widened, and he pointed to the shelves and said, "No, the medicinal materials I refined last time were at most one-third here, Director Zhang, how many medicinal materials did you enter this time." ”

Zhang Zhen patted Liu Zhendong on the shoulder and said: "Although there are so many medicinal materials this time, in fact, with your refining speed, it won't take you more than a few days to refine them all, don't forget that you are also paid, refining pills is very costly, I know this very well." ”

Liu Zhendong sighed and said, "It's too vulgar to say that money, the main thing, I just like to refine pills, and it doesn't have much to do with money." ”

Zhang Zhen took out a list and handed it to Liu Zhendong with an expression that I understood, only to see that the name of the pill was densely written on it.

Liu Zhendong counted them and said: "My God, the types of pills refined this time are complete, there are all kinds of effects, fortunately they are all primary pills, Rao is so, and he is also quite responsible, you are going to eat it for three years at a time!"

Liu Zhendong is really not wrong, the profit of the primary pill is very thin, even if Liu Zhendong can produce a large number of 1 perfect pill, the profit obtained is still not enough, if you want to make up for the deficit of the Eagle Country Office, you need a large number of pills, as for the one-time sale of so many pills, it is bound to affect the sales of next year, but Zhang Zhen has some of his own plans, next year will not engage in primary pills, and begin to pursue the boutique route, mainly sell intermediate pills, and even reduce the shipment of pills, so that the stimulated Eagle Kingdom pill market feels the fear of running out of goods, so as to produce the effect of hunger marketing, high-profit sales of pills, rather than the current 'small profits but quick turnover' business model.

The refining of pills is boring and boring, especially refining these low-level pills that do not challenge the 'difficulty', Liu Zhendong does not feel happy and rewarding, if it weren't for Zhang Zhen's mention, these pills are sold, he can also get a part of the profits, he can't persist at all, refining these medicinal materials that have piled up into a 'mountain'.

On the first day, Zhang Zhen was overjoyed, and immediately contacted the channel merchant to deliver the goods, Liu Zhendong came to the roof at this time, and began to refine the Soul Returning Pill again.

Liu Zhendong has already seen the difficulty of the Soul Returning Pill, so this time Liu Zhendong's heart is very calm, and he keeps making psychological hints to himself, such as everything is difficult at the beginning, there is nothing difficult in the world, only people with a heart are afraid, as long as the deep iron pestle is sharpened into a needle and other words.

From dusk to the early hours of the morning, Liu Zhendong has failed ten times in a row, not only physically and mentally exhausted, but also has not enough spirit in his body to support the high-intensity alchemy process.

Early the next morning, Liu Zhendong went downstairs to have breakfast and began to devote himself to the refining of low-grade pills.

In the basement of the Dadan furnace room, Liu Zhendong has been distracted thinking about the Soul Returning Pill during the purification process and the alchemy formation, and has almost exploded the furnace several times, but fortunately, Liu Zhendong's reaction speed is too fast, and he corrected the mistake in time to avoid the embarrassing scene of the scrapping of the fryer.

After turning off the fire, Liu Zhendong opened the Dan furnace, looking at the pills lying in the Dan furnace, as well as the fragrant fragrance of the medicine, Liu Zhendong did not rush to take out the pills and walk out of the room, but closed the Dan furnace, sat on the futon and meditated with his eyes closed.

On the one hand, in restoring the essence and energy consumed by refining, in order to facilitate and also think about some guidance from Luo Li on Yunshu Mountain before.

Recalling the skills taught by Luo Li, Liu Zhendong found that his general direction was not wrong, as for why he couldn't make the Soul Returning Pill successful, I am afraid it still lies in the basic skills.

The changes in the Soul Returning Pill are fierce and there are conflicts between multiple groups of medicinal materials, but in essence, they are still not out of the basic category, and the changes contained in it, through the accumulation of this time, Liu Zhendong has basically figured out the permutations and combinations of changes, as well as the chronological order of conflicts between medicinal materials.

The problem now is that the Soul Returning Pill shows that it wants to 'mess around'! Liu Zhendong couldn't hold him down, so he could only let it slip through his fingers, like a firework, and explode brilliantly inside the Dan furnace.

Liu Zhendong shook his head and stood up from the ground, opened the pill furnace and walked out of the room with the pill, feeling in his heart that he was still too weak! If he could break through to the level of a layman, it would not be so difficult to refine the Soul Returning Pill.

This is a wrong point of view, refining the pill requires a certain amount of essence and spirit, but it is not that the more essence and spirit, the better, the more the success rate, first of all, after the medicinal material itself is purified, the essence is relatively fragile, and it does not need too much essence to wrap it, but refining the pill is definitely not as simple as throwing the medicinal materials into it in order, pinching the time point to increase the temperature, or reducing the temperature, the things contained in it are very cumbersome, and the low-level pill may still be able to read the book according to the script, and the mechanical refining according to the steps on the pill, once it rises to the intermediate pill, it is not so simple, such as the current Soul Returning Pill, the difficulty of refining alone, far beyond the ordinary intermediate pills, so that the intermediate pill pharmacists smell the tiger and avoid it.

This truth Luo Li emphasized countless times, the purification stage may have an advantage for a strong monk, but when it comes to the refining stage, the situation is not like this at all, the famous pill masters in history, nine times out of ten, the cultivation is not too high, at least compared with their pill path, the level of cultivation is much lower, of course, there are very few, the pill and cultivation go hand in hand genius pill master, this is a special case, and it cannot be summarized by universal rules.

Suppressing the mood of refining the Soul Rejuvenation Pill, after delivering the pill, Liu Zhendong began to write the roof of the building, writing down the specific process of encountering changes in the refining process, as well as the corresponding methods for his own thinking.

This belongs to the dead end of poverty, it seems that there are not many changes after the conflict of medicinal materials, there are only more than 20 kinds, but it is necessary to consider that this is a number of groups of medicinal materials alternating with each other, so that the magnitude of the change is not as simple as dozens, and the final changes that can be presented are as many as a cow's hair, and it is basically impossible to perfectly estimate all the schemes.

However, the benefits of this are also obvious, at least the changes in the first layer can be solved in this way, and as for the changes in the second layer, you can rely on the first layer to make a reference, after all, everything is inseparable, and it is definitely a good thing to study and think more.

Not to mention the changes in the first stage, Liu Zhendong has been able to control it smoothly, and he can basically get through it nine times out of ten, but the second stage is more difficult, he almost survived several times, but he failed at the door, these bad experiences made Liu Zhendong's mentality almost explode.

In this way, another 5 days have passed, and the primary pills refined by Liu Zhendong have been piled up in a small room, and the Soul Returning Pill still has not survived the second stage, and the cumulative number of failures has reached 50 times! Such a terrible number makes Liu Zhendong doubt his life, and he can't understand why this Soul Pill is so difficult!

During this period, Liu Zhendong has refined more than ten level 4 pills, although the quality of the furnace is very average, it belongs to the quality of the 6th grade, and it can be regarded as a successful baking, but this time the soul pill still has no progress in the refining process, Liu Zhendong suspects that even if he can skillfully refine the 5th level pill, or even the 6th level pill, this time the soul pill still cannot be successfully refined, this is to despise himself, but the soul pill is really too difficult!

Zhang Zhen looked at the haggard Liu Zhendong and said: "You have worked hard during this time, basically more than half of the medicinal materials have been refined, you go back to the Goose City Gymnastics Hall to recuperate, and after a while, you will come to the farm to refine, and I will spend part of the cost on the purchase of raw materials for the Soul Returning Pill, and I will let Lao Wang call you for the remaining part." ”

Liu Zhendong shook his head and said: "No need, let's store it with you first, it seems that this time the soul pill will consume a lot of materials before it can be successfully refined." ”

Zhang Zhen comforted: "Don't be too anxious, you refine the pills on the list during the day, basically only at night do you have time to refine the Soul Rejuvenation Pill, and it doesn't take too long to refine it when it's full, don't worry, it's difficult at the beginning." ”

Liu Zhendong raised his head, looked at Zhang Zhen and said, "Is the medicinal effect of this Soul Rejuvenation Pill really so effective on ordinary elderly people? I feel that it is really time to eliminate this Soul Returning Pill, for monks, it is like chicken ribs, and it is difficult to refine, so there is no reason to invest so much medicinal materials and time and energy in the Soul Rejuvenation Pill." ”

Zhang Zhen said softly: " In ancient times, the Soul Returning Pill belonged to the emperor's medicine, you will understand it as soon as I say this, this is why I have always wanted to get the Soul Returning Pill, as long as the quality is not too bad, the Soul Returning Pill is a sought-after commodity whether it is at home or abroad, and the powerful and rich who want to get it, I don't know how much, so you try your best, you can be the best, and if you can't do it, there is nothing, the difficulty is there, and there are only a few senior pill pharmacists who can ensure the success rate, and it is normal for you to fail. ”

The value of the Soul Returning Pill is so high, and the reason why the senior pill pharmacist refines less is also very simple, one is that although the medicinal effect of the Soul Returning Pill is very good, ordinary people can't take too much, and the drug resistance is very large, the effect of taking the second and the first pill can be described as a world of difference, which limits the consumption of the Soul Returning Pill, and another reason is that things are scarce and expensive, after refining the Soul Returning Pill too much, it will definitely drop in price significantly, and there is no need for senior pill pharmacists to make money, there is no need to refine the Soul Returning Pill, small profits and quick turnover, pursue that little profit, refining other high-grade pills that are good at selling, isn't it fragrantWhy rob this 'unpopular' business.

Speaking of which, the value of the Soul Returning Pill is 'too low' and not worth the energy of a senior pill pharmacist.

The car outside the door has been parked for a long time, waiting for Liu Zhendong to leave the farm and return to Goose City, Liu Zhendong is leaning on the sofa with his eyes closed, not knowing whether he is thinking about the problem or meditating.

Liu Zhendong opened his eyes and said, "Wait a minute, I'm going to experiment for the last time." ”

Zhang Zhen nodded to show that he understood, Liu Zhendong came to the roof again, I don't know if it was a flash of inspiration, or if the emperor lived up to his painstaking efforts, this time the refining process was particularly smooth, and he quickly passed the first stage and began to develop towards the second stage.

It's a critical moment again, Liu Zhendong has failed in this step dozens of times before, and each time it was a little bit worse, what will be the result this time?

Liu Zhendong's eyes lit up, and the essence of the medicinal materials inside the Dan furnace blended with each other from a boiling state to a calm state, and the second stage was successful! Now there is only the last step, that is, the Plastic Pill, as long as the shaping is successful, the Soul Returning Pill will be considered a successful completion.

has reached the last step, Liu Zhendong can be said to be very careful, normally speaking, to reach the final stage of plastic pills, as long as you are careful, there is no big mistake, at most the quality after molding is poor, basically there will be no scene of failure in the refining of the fry.

The peculiarity of the Soul Returning Pill is that the plastic pill stage is also very difficult, and the phenomenon of reflux will occur if you are not careful, as long as there is reflux, there is basically only a situation of the fryer, even if it is an alchemy master, it is difficult to stop, and you can only watch the originally formed pill rot into a puddle of residue.

Liu Zhendong 'groaned' in his heart, he had expected it, but he didn't expect it to reflux so soon, because this was the first time to enter the plastic pill stage, and there were too many failures before, Liu Zhendong didn't want to give up, and was still desperately trying to prevent the reflux.

Fortunately, the moment the reflux appeared, Liu Zhendong found it in time, and forcibly pulled the essence of the medicinal herbs inward, preventing the continued reflux, but the general trend was the same, Liu Zhendong could stop it for a while, but he couldn't stop it, and the final pill that was formed leaked everywhere, and a large number of medicinal essence burst out from the top and bottom left and right, and finally the Soul Returning Pill was declared a failure.

Liu Zhendong was so angry that he almost smashed the floor, seeing that he was about to succeed, he actually died at the last step, as long as he insisted for a minute, he could complete the plastic pill.

After coming down, Liu Zhendong said to Zhang Zhen: "There is only the last step of plastic pills left, and I feel that in the next few days, I should be able to succeed." ”

Zhang Zhen said: "Then you can stay on the farm for a few days, I'm not in a hurry, you can stay as long as you want." ”

Having said that, but Liu Zhendong can't stay on the farm for too long, the gymnastics hall in Goose City also needs him, after all, this is a club opened in his name, and Liu Zhendong is also responsible for the work of observing and recording, and now the gymnastics hall is full of newcomers, and if the time drags on for too long, it will affect the accuracy of the data.

In the next few days, Liu Zhendong stayed in the alchemy room on the roof of the building, refining the Soul Returning Pill with all his might, under the scrapping of a large number of medicinal materials, the progress of the Soul Returning Pill became faster and faster, and he was able to appear 7 times in the Ten Soul Returning Pill stages, but after dozens of plastic pill failures, Liu Zhendong still did not succeed in refining even one Soul Returning Pill.

At this time, it is almost the same as Zhang Zhen's agreement of 100 times, Liu Zhendong only then understood, why Zhang Zhen asked for 100 copies of the Soul Returning Pill medicinal materials, only 10 Soul Returning Pills need to be baked, normally 1 part of the medicinal materials can refine 3 Soul Returning Pills, that is to say, 100 times of refining, only need to succeed 3 to 4 times, Zhang Zhen will be very satisfied, and the requirements for the quality are not harsh, as long as it can reach the intermediate quality of 6 grades, Zhang Zhen can accept it.

At present, it is very difficult, the plastic pill stage seems to be the easiest, but in fact it is still very difficult, the problem of reflux appears ten times out of ten, it can be said that it does not fall once, such a terrible appearance rate, let Liu Zhendong wonder if he missed any steps in the refining process, why there is a reflux phenomenon every time, which is not scientific at all.

So, Liu Zhendong began to study in the second stage, wanting to see what the situation was, which led to so many refluxes, and finally let him find the problem.

It turns out that the so-called calm is an illusion, and there are still dark waves surging under the Dan liquid, but the float is small, Liu Zhendong was in a hurry to make the Dan, and did not find this phenomenon, which led to the fact that every time he entered the Plastic Dan, there was a backflow this time.

After finding the problem, Liu Zhendong thought that it was a good solution to the problem, and first thought of making the furnace fire smaller, so that the temperature of the Dan furnace dropped, and at the moment of solidification, the gate was opened, and the fierce flame rose again to complete the plastic Dan stage.

First of all, it is difficult to grasp this temperature, if the temperature is too low, the Dan liquid will directly solidify, that is to say, the essence has lost its vitality, there is no way to shape, and at the moment of opening the floodgate, although the fierce fire is good, it is easy to cause the problem of too high temperature, causing the Dan liquid, which has been calming down, to boil again.

In order to control the rhythm, Liu Zhendong wasted dozens of medicinal materials before he could barely achieve half of the success rate.

In this way, the problem of Dan liquid is solved, only the final shaping is needed, according to common sense, it is enough to gather steadily, and it should not be very difficult to control the temperature a little.

In the end, Liu Zhendong succeeded, but he was very disappointed by the pill after it came out, the pill didn't seem to have any problems, but there was no medicinal fragrance.

After cutting the pill, Liu Zhendong's face was very ugly, the epidermis was successfully solidified, but the inside was liquid, which is the so-called pseudo-molding! This is still a waste pill, it has no medicinal effect at all, but it is toxic.

Seeing such a result, Liu Zhendong's heart couldn't calm down for a long time, and after adjusting his mentality, he refined a few furnaces, some of which failed and some succeeded, but all the pills after the furnace was opened had no medicinal fragrance, which means that all the pills that Liu Zhendong successfully refined were waste pills.

With a "snap", Liu Zhendong slapped the table and shouted: "In the future, I will refine the Soul Returning Pill, and I will be a puppy!"

Liu Zhendong, who left the Dan furnace room, urged Zhang Zhen to arrange a vehicle, he wanted to return to Goose City immediately, leave this 'sad place', and didn't want to stay for a moment.

So, in the middle of the night, Liu Zhendong left the farm in a car and rushed to Goose City.

Zhang Zhen didn't keep it, knowing that Liu Zhendong was in a bad mood, he could only shake his head and send someone to clean the Dan furnace room.

took out his mobile phone and looked at the amount of money notified on the text message, Zhang Zhen was very happy, no matter what, Liu Zhendong was very good at refining ordinary pills, and the speed was fast, and the quantity and quality of the production were very high, which made him make a lot of money!

With this large amount of money, the Eagle Country Office finally reversed its loss, and at the same time, a large number of Yipindan pills flowed out of the Eagle Country area.

The monk naturally looked down on these pills, even if these pills were in perfect condition, but for ordinary people, especially those who had used pills, they were very interested in these pills.

The pill merchant in the Eagle Country is also a special thief, and he has taken the way of making an appointment to sell, obviously the pill boxes in the warehouse have been piled up into a hill, and he still refuses to supply them in unlimited quantities, so as to raise the price of the pill, Zhang Zhen doesn't care about this at all, how to sell it is not his business, and he will not cut off the financial route of the channel businessman.

It was already morning after returning to Goose City, Liu Zhendong went straight to the gymnastics gym after getting off the car, and there were still several people in black behind him, Liu Zhendong was very helpless, and told Zhang Zhen before setting off that he didn't need the protection of the people in black, but Zhang Zhen disagreed.

After all, there had been an attack before, and although these men in black were not monks, they all had weapons, and they could help Liu Zhendong block it and assist him in the battle.

In addition to the fact that Liu Zhendong is a special person specially advised by the ancestral family, Zhang Zhen doesn't want Liu Zhendong to have an accident, saying that Liu Zhendong is now his pill pharmacist, or the kind that can make money, Zhang Zhen is even more unlikely to expose Liu Zhendong to a dangerous state.

Before he reached the door, he found that someone was arguing, Liu Zhendong took a closer look and found that Chengzi and Xiao Li actually pulled each other's clothes and scuffled.

Liu Zhendong shouted loudly: "What are you doing! What are you two doing! I just came back early in the morning, and I saw you fighting!"

Chengzi pulled Xiao Li's cuffs and said, "Defa, you're finally back! This kid actually molested a female student! Caused others to call the police to arrest him, but fortunately, Director Zheng came forward, otherwise, our gymnastics hall would have been sealed." ”

Xiao Li hurriedly said: "It's all a misunderstanding! If I really harassed others, do you think the police would release me so quickly?"

Liu Zhendong separated the two and shouted: "No matter what you say, you can't use your hands to scuffle! Don't forget, we are all compatriots! Since the police put Xiao Li back, it proves that Xiao Li has no problem, and Chengzi, don't look at Xiao Li with colored glasses." ”

Xiao Li straightened out his clothes and said, "What the curator said is right! The police didn't convict me, but you sentenced me first!"

Seiko gritted her teeth and said: "Because I know that girl! I know that she won't lie, let alone call the police for no reason, but you are very old-fashioned and have not left evidence! This does not mean that you have not molested and harassed others!"

Xiao Li was not convinced, and shouted at the top of his voice: "What age is it now, do you want to understand the evidence? Chengzi, do you like that girl, speak for her like this!"
