Chapter 17 Stunned
"Of course, it's hard for people to believe my words." Hong Jun also mentioned this very critical issue in his diary. "If you want to verify it, you can burn this note and extract a golden elixir according to my method."
Jindan? Chen Mingluo immediately scratched his head and looked at this notebook. It was obviously a big deal. During the special period, there were too many hard-crusted notebooks. How could it be that Jindan was burned?
Chen Mingluo weighed the amount of the notebook, but it was not too heavy. He turned the paper inside and found nothing special. He carefully observed the paper with a magnifying glass and saw the pulp patterns inside. Obviously, this was a very ordinary notebook.
However, Chen Mingluo was obviously bored. Anyway, he was the only one at home, so he just burned it. It would be easy to verify that this guy is a lunatic and is also a liar.
Hong Jun specifically explained in his notes that he must use a ceramic container to burn this note, otherwise it will be easy to make mistakes, and what he gets may not be a golden elixir.
Chen Mingluo walked around the house, then slapped his head, ran to the kitchen to bring over the ceramic basin that my mother used to knead dough, then found a lighter, opened the notebook, lit it, and threw it into the basin, watching the flames swaying and gradually getting bigger, igniting the entire notebook.
"Oh my God--" Then Chen Mingluo discovered the problem. The flames in the basin suddenly became larger and rose more than one meter high. The fire was very fierce, and the color of the flame also changed. It was a golden yellow. If you observe carefully, you can see some other colors in it. He paid attention to it. The green, yellow, red, white and black are the colors of the five elements.
Chen Mingluo was not too surprised because he set off artillery during the Chinese New Year and the flames also had such a color. It was just that some metal compounds were added selectively, which was not a rare thing.
But the following situation made him feel a little weird.
The flame that had already expanded a lot suddenly turned into a spherical shape, more like a golden ball of light containing five-colored strange light.
"This--" Chen Mingluo was stunned.
According to Hong Jun’s notes, he should add his essence and blood at this time to condense the flame into a golden elixir.
However, Chen Mingluo looked at the spherical flame in front of him, but he couldn't make up his mind. The feeling of biting his middle finger must have hurt. However, he soon thought of the probe he used to take blood when he was doing an experiment in the school biology laboratory last time, and it happened to be useful.
So Chen Mingluo took the probe as fast as possible, burned it on the flame to disinfect it, and then pressed the button on his left middle finger, feeling like he was bitten by a bug. A bleeding point had appeared on his middle finger. He squeezed it hard and a drop of blood appeared at the top of his middle finger.
He looked at his middle finger with a little hesitation, and Chen Mingluo inserted it into the spherical flame.
Well? The spherical flame did not change at all? Just when Chen Mingluo was a little disappointed, the star flame suddenly stopped as if it had stopped. Then he saw the flame in front of him begin to collapse inward.
It seemed like something was evacuated in his head. When he saw something in front of him, Chen Mingluo fainted.
When Chen Mingluo woke up, he found that the hand had pointed at five o'clock in the afternoon, and it had been two full hours since he burned the paper.
"Ouch--" Chen Mingluo felt a little pain on his forehead. He touched it with his hand. When he looked at it, he found that there was blood on his hands, but it was already sticky and scabbed.
When he ran to look in the mirror, he found that a piece of his forehead had been broken. He had to go to the medical box at home to find a bandaid, and then found alcohol and wool. He first washed the head and face with clean water, then wiped it with alcohol wool, and finally put the bandaid on it.
When he went back, Chen Mingluo was a little confused. The scene just now was really strange. He didn't know why the spherical flame suddenly collapsed, and he had no impression of what happened afterwards.
"Oh, you have to put the basin back in the kitchen first, otherwise my mother will be back soon-" Chen Mingluo remembered this matter, so he went to clean the basin, but he was stunned immediately.
In the basin, I thought there should be a lot of ashes after burning paper, but I didn't expect it to be clean and there was no trace of burning.
A round golden elixir as big as a little finger was lying quietly in the basin. In a trance, there seemed to be a slight fragrance overflowing, giving people a very magical feeling.
"There is really a golden elixir!" Chen Mingluo was speechless and his mind was blank.
Chen Mingluo picked up the Jindan. When he was about to take a closer look, he heard the sound of his mother Dai Xuan talking to others in the yard. So he quickly put the Jindan away and sent the basin back to the kitchen.
When Dai Xuan came back from get off work, she encountered several neighbors standing in the yard talking about the relocation of the Education College. She couldn't help but say a few words. To be honest, Dai Xuan also felt a little contradictory about the relocation of the Education College.
Although she does not work in the education system, she is quite familiar with this matter and knows that there are many benefits of relocation. But an important point is that once Chen Tongda follows the School of Education from Huzhou to Mingyang, her job transfer will be more troublesome.
She is now a deputy section-level cadre of the Health Bureau and often serves as a doctor in some major surgeries in municipal hospitals. Although her level is worse than Chen Tongda's deputy section-level cadre in the School of Education, local cadres, especially those in municipal hospitals, are always more affordable, which is far beyond the level of the college system.
If you abandon everything you have now and follow Chen Tongda to Mingyang, you will feel a little distressed. After all, this is the result of relying on your own hard work.
After chatting with the neighbors for a few words, Dai Xuan went home, but found that her son Chen Mingluo didn't know what he was busy with.
"What's wrong with your head?" Dai Xuan immediately noticed the band-aid on her son's forehead and asked.
"I fell off the bed while I was sleeping-" Chen Mingluo lie casually.
"A man of this big age can even fall off the bed-" Dai Xuan shook her head, then hugged her son with heartache, "Let me see if you have to get a tetanus injection?"
"It's okay, it's just a skin trauma. I've dealt with it." Chen Mingluo immediately shook his head and refused.
