Chapter 56 Refining Bigu Pill
Chapter 56 Refining Bigu Pill
"Jiu Bogong is absurd, grandson is not as good as you said."
Han Changming said modestly that he knew himself. Han Changlu had studied alchemy with Han Daozhen for many years. Although he failed to become a key member of the family, Han Changlu's alchemy level was not comparable to that of Han Changming, at least not now.
Han Daozhen waved his hand and said: "You don't need to say those modest words. The patriarch told me that from today onwards, I will teach you alchemy, but if you have no talent, you are not allowed to be horny. Speaking of which, there are many people in our clan Few people want to learn alchemy, and not many succeed, so you have to be mentally prepared for this."
The Han family handed down weapons to the family, and the number of alchemists has always been very small. For alchemy, there must be a famous teacher to guide them. The Han family is just a small family. Very good.
"The patriarch has already said it, and the grandson understands." Han Changming honestly agreed.
Han Daozhen nodded and said: "From today onwards, you will live in Bailing Temple. I will teach you alchemy, starting with basic alchemy knowledge, teaching for three days and resting for seven days. The patriarch said that you should not delay your cultivation. For some time in cultivation, don't learn from Uncle Jiu, if I had listened to my advice back then, I wouldn't have fallen to where I am today."
At the end, Han Daozhen had a remorseful expression on his face. He was too stubborn back then and didn't listen to persuasion at all. As a result, he missed the best foundation-building age and failed to advance to the foundation-building stage after taking the foundation-building pill.
Generally speaking, the best foundation building age for a cultivator is before the age of forty, and the older, over forty years old, the meridians are solidified, the qi and blood are exhausted, and the success rate of foundation building is getting lower and lower.
Han Changming wanted to change the exercises immediately, but after hearing what the patriarch said, he changed his mind. He built the foundation first and then changed the exercises. During the period, he could learn the art of alchemy without delay.
Han Daozhen took out a thick ancient book, handed it to Han Changming, and said: "This "Compendium of Thousand Spirits" records thousands of commonly used elixir. , smell, and color must be recorded clearly, and the assessment will be made tomorrow."
"Yes, Uncle Jiu."
Han Changming stayed in a side hall of the Bailing Hall, looked up the "Compendium of Thousand Spirits", and memorized it thoroughly, and he concentrated on reciting it in a day.
To be honest, Han Changming had already started to consult the elixir classics, but it was not as complete as the "Compendium of Thousand Spirits".
"Compendium of Thousand Spirits" records very detailed, in addition to text introduction, there are also images.
On the second day, during Han Daozhen's assessment, he casually mentioned the names of dozens of elixir, and asked Han Changming to tell the efficacy, color, shape, and smell, or to name the color, efficacy, and smell of an elixir, and asked Han Changming to tell the name of the elixir. The name of the medicine.
Han Daozhen not only asked about the elixir commonly used in the Qi refining period, but also the commonly used elixir in the foundation building period, and Han Changming answered most of them correctly.
"Didn't I ask you to memorize the elixirs commonly used in the Qi refining period? How come you even remember the elixirs commonly used in the foundation building period so clearly?" Han Daozhen was a little surprised.
Han Changming looked normal, and replied truthfully: "Uncle Jiu didn't say anything, but if grandson wants to become an alchemist, he should memorize the elixir in "Compendium of Thousand Spirits"."
Hearing this, Han Changlu blushed. Han Daozhen told him the same way at the beginning. He memorized the elixir commonly used during the Qi refining period, so he meditated and practiced. Later, Han Daozhen scolded him.
A look of approval appeared in Han Daozhen's eyes, and he said, "Chang Lu, do you see that? Learn more from your ninth brother. Only in this point, your ninth brother is much better than you."
"Grandfather's lesson is that grandson has written it down." Han Changlu blushed and responded.
Han Daozhen looked at Han Changming, and said with a stern expression: "I will give you three days to memorize the entire "Compendium of Thousand Spirits" without making a single mistake. When will you recite it backwards, I will teach you about alchemy. I want to become an alchemy master." Master, it's not that easy."
"Yes, my grandson will definitely memorize "Compendium of Thousand Spirits" by heart." Han Changming agreed confidently.
Strict teachers produce high-quality apprentices, the stricter Han Daozhen's requirements, the happier he is.
Back at the residence, Han Changming took out the "Compendium of Thousand Spirits" and looked through it carefully.
He divided the entire "Compendium of Thousand Spirits" into three sections, and memorized one section every day to make sure he got a word right.
Three days later, Han Changming accepted Han Daozhen's assessment. This time, he did not make a single mistake and recited it fluently.
Han Daozhen was very satisfied with Han Changming's performance, and taught Han Changming the basic knowledge of alchemy.
Alchemy is actually throwing all kinds of elixir into the alchemy furnace and refining it into pills, which is easy to say but difficult to do.
Three months passed quickly.
Early in the morning of this day, Han Changming came to the stone room where Han Daozhen was.
The walls of the stone room are engraved with patterns of fire attributes. The stone walls are made of a kind of fiery red ore. The fiery red ore is Huoyang Stone, which is often used to build alchemy rooms and tool refining rooms.
"You have almost learned the theoretical knowledge of alchemy. From today on, the old man will teach you alchemy. You must study hard and don't slack off. Do you understand?" Han Daozhen's eyes were stern.
"Yes, grandson must study hard." Han Changming looked a little excited. After three months of theoretical knowledge, he was finally able to make alchemy.
With a flick of Han Daozhen's sleeve, a light blue alchemy furnace flew out, instantly swelled to a height of Zhang Xu, and landed in front of them.
A gourd pattern is engraved on the surface of the cyan alchemy furnace, and the word "green gourd" is engraved next to it.
"This Green Gourd Cauldron is a first-grade middle-grade alchemy furnace. I have used this alchemy furnace before, starting with the simplest Bigu Dan. I will give you two ingredients first, and I will guide you." Han Daozhen took out a cyan alchemy furnace. Pass the storage bag to Han Changming.
There are two materials for refining Bigu Dan, and a piece of red wood the size of a palm. The red wood feels warm to the touch.
Chiyang wood, a kind of fire-attribute spiritual wood, is very resistant to burning if it is more than ten years old. Qi refining monks who are new to alchemy will use Chiyang wood.
Qi-refining monks need to use flames generated by foreign objects to learn alchemy. The most common one is ground fire, but HLD does not have ground fire. , It is more appropriate to use Chiyang wood.
Han Changming first cleaned the inner wall of the alchemy furnace, then lit the Chiyang wood and placed it under the alchemy furnace.
Not long after, raging flames enveloped the alchemy furnace.
After a while, he felt that the preheating was almost done, and he threw the materials into the alchemy furnace one after another.
There are four materials for refining the Bigu Pill, the blood essence of the first-order monster clam, inner alchemy, five-year-old golden apricot fruit, and a bottle of spiritual water.
That's right, the monster resources in the East China Sea are rich, and they rely on the sea to eat the sea. The alchemists in the world of cultivating immortals in the East China Sea usually use monster inner alchemy and spiritual water for alchemy. Spiritual water is mainly to promote the fusion of various materials, and alchemists often use it When it comes to spiritual water, most of the spiritual water is the water from the spiritual well, and the better one is the water from the spiritual spring.
