He and Jin Lanning chatted and laughed in the yard outside the house and waited for more than half an hour. The sky was already getting dark. * Seeing that Xuan Zhuzi hadn't come out of the alchemy room yet, Gu Yu couldn't help but become a little anxious.
"Lan Ning, it's been so long, why haven't you seen Senior Xuan Zhuzi come out?"
Jin Lanning, who was leaning in Gu Yu's arms, twisted her body and said nothing.
Gu Yu lowered his head and glanced at the girl in his arms, and couldn't help but laugh. The girl actually fell asleep in his arms. Seeing the peaceful look on her face, Gu Yu couldn't bear to wake her up. But at this moment, he was thinking about the room.
Due to the situation inside, she had to be gently patted awake.
"Lan Ning, wake up, it's so late, why hasn't Senior Xuan Zhuzi come out of the room yet? Is something okay?"
After being woken up by Gu Yu, Jin Lanning rubbed his sleepy eyes and murmured: "What time is it now?"
Gu Yu pondered for a moment and said, "Well, it should be almost eight o'clock. We have been waiting here for more than an hour."
Hearing what Gu Yu said, Jin Lanning got excited, turned over and jumped out of Gu Yu's arms.
"I have been refining this furnace of elixirs for several days. Senior Xuan Zhuzi said that the furnace should be opened at eight o'clock on time and asked me to go in and help. I almost forgot about it." After saying that, Jin Lanning walked quickly to the alchemy room.
After walking a few steps, she turned back to look at Gu Yu and said, "How about you go in and help?"
Gu Yu hesitated for a moment and said, "Is that okay?"
Jin Lanning smiled and said: "As long as it doesn't disturb Senior Xuan Zhuzi's alchemy, it will be fine."
Hearing what Jin Lanning said, Gu Yu's face flashed with joy, and he nodded quickly and said: "Okay, then I will go in with you to help. I just want to see how Xuan Zhuzi makes elixirs."
As he spoke, Gu Yu quickly followed Jin Lanning, and the two quickly walked into the alchemy room.
As soon as he stepped in, Gu Yu felt a wave of heat coming from the floor. It was not much lower than the temperature in Master Wu's forging room. However, for Gu Yu, who had experienced the training of the flame cave, such heat was nothing to him.
A huge cauldron in the middle of the room was emitting scorching heat, and streaks of fiery red light shone out from the cauldron, illuminating the surrounding area red.
Next to the cauldron, Dou Xi was fanning the fire vigorously. As he waved the fan in his hand, the fireworks in the furnace also jumped and became brighter and brighter.
"Whoops!"
The gas holes on the top of the furnace continuously sprayed out steam with a strong medicinal fragrance. The steam filled the air and enveloped the entire alchemy roof.
Gu Yu looked around and found that Xuan Zhuzi was sitting on a futon next to the cauldron, his eyes closed, his mouth opening and closing, mumbling something.
Gu Yu didn't bother him, he just walked to Dou Xi and made her smile and nod.
Seeing Gu Yu's arrival, Dou Xi's face flashed with joy and he responded with the brightest smile.
Gu Yu pointed to the fan in Dou Xi's hand, and then pointed to himself. The meaning was self-evident.
Dou Xi hesitated for a moment, nodded, and handed the cattail leaf fan in his hand to Gu Yu.
Gu Yu took the cattail leaf fan and started fanning it at the frequency Dou Xi had fanned before.
I don't know how long it took, but Gu Yu felt that his swinging right arm began to feel a little sore. However, Xuan Zhuzi, who had been silent all this time, suddenly opened his eyes, and his eyes were filled with light. He turned over and jumped up from the futon. He stretched out his hand.
He violently lifted the lid of the cauldron, and with his left hand, he took out a gourd filled with water from nowhere. He quickly unscrewed the lid of the gourd and poured the water in the gourd into the half-opened medicine furnace.
.
Bah...
The cold water was poured into the hot medicine stove, and there was a sudden roar, and then a pale mist rose from the medicine stove, and a stronger medicinal fragrance spread out.
Xuan Zhuzi jumped away and shouted: "Dou Xi, there is no need to fan." Xuan Zhuzi thought it was still Dou Xi who was fanning him, but he didn't know that someone had changed.
Although Xuan Zhuzi called Dou Xi, Gu Yu took away the cattail leaf fan in time.
As Gu Yu stopped fanning, the flames in the cauldron became much dimmer, and the temperature also dropped.
Xuan Zhuzi looked at the steam dispersing above the cauldron with bright eyes. After a while, he took out a pair of gloves of unknown material from his arms, quickly put them on, and said to Jin Lanning who was waiting at the side: "
Lan Ning, prepare to collect the pills."
Jin Lanning hurriedly agreed, rushed to the wooden cabinet aside, and took out two red wooden boxes. She handed a wooden box to Dou Xi, and the two of them came under the cauldron, holding the wooden boxes high.
Just stand still.
Seeing that Jin Lanning and Dou Xi were ready, Xuan Zhuzi swayed and jumped up to the alchemy furnace. He reached out with his hands that were glowing with golden light, and smashed out a ball of black mud from the alchemy furnace. He rubbed his hands quickly.
The golden light suddenly appeared, and dark brown medicinal pills appeared in his hand. He threw it away, and the pills in his hand jumped straight into the wooden box in Jin Lanning's hand.
I saw that the elixirs thrown into the wooden box had already taken shape and were rolling in the box. The elixirs were still emitting a dark light, and they were not ordinary objects at first glance.
As the temperature of the mud drops, Xuan Zhuzi rubs his hands faster and faster. In the blink of an eye, a large pile of black mud has turned into pills emitting a dark light. The two red wooden boxes have already been filled with
Full of elixirs.
After rubbing the medicinal mud in his hands, Xuan Zhuzi just jumped down from the stove top. Perhaps because of the high consumption, or perhaps because he was too focused, when he jumped down, his body shook and he almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, he stayed there.
Gu Yu below saw that the situation was not good and reached out to support Xuan Zhuzi, thus preventing him from having close contact with the ground.
At this time, Xuan Zhuzi's face was pale, his eyes were bloodshot, and he was extremely weak. But when he saw that the person holding him up was Gu Yu, a look of joy suddenly flashed across his face.
"You...are here..."
Gu Yu nodded slightly and said, "Senior Xuan Zhuzi, are you okay?"
Although Xuan Zhuzi was very weak, there was an indescribable pride on his face. Gu Yu even saw a look of relief on his face.
"It's okay, I'm just a little tired. I'll be fine after a rest."
Gu Yu helped Xuan Zhuzi sit down on the futon, and then, using his true strength, he gently patted Xuan Zhuzi's head on the heavenly part of his head. A blush appeared on Xuan Zhuzi's originally pale and bloodless face, and he became energetic.
A lot.
Seeing that Xuan Zhuzi had recovered a lot, Gu Yu collected his skills, looked at Xuan Zhuzi with a smile and said, "Senior, what kind of elixir did you make that made you spend so much energy?"
Although Xuan Zhuzi had recovered a lot at this time, his depleted vitality was still not restored. He exhaled a breath and waved to Jin Lanning and Dou Xi who were carrying pills.
The two men nodded quickly and walked over quickly. Then they respectfully handed the two wooden boxes to Xuan Zhuzi.
"Senior, these two boxes are exactly seventy-two, no more, no less."
Xuan Zhuzi nodded with satisfaction, a satisfied smile flashed across his face.
"After working hard for several days, I finally finished it. Lan Ning and Dou Xi covered the wooden box and put it in the box. Let's take it down to the Monkey King tomorrow."
"knew."
Monk Gu Yu already on the side could not figure out for a long time that these elixirs were refined for the Monkey King, and he did not know what the purpose of these elixirs was.
Gu Yu glanced at the elixir in the wooden box and said slowly: "Senior, what kind of elixir is this? What's the use of the Monkey King taking it out?"
Xuan Zhuzi smiled slightly and said: "This elixir is called Jinyuan Dan. It can quickly increase a person's strength several times in a short period of time."
"Jin Yuan Dan!? The reason why Northern Rakshasa suddenly became so powerful is because he took the Jin Yuan Dan refined by the human race?"
Xuan Zhuzi looked at Gu Yu with a cowardly expression and said, "Yes, the reason why Bei Rakshasa suddenly became so powerful is because he took a special elixir made by the human race, but I don't know if it is Jin Yuan elixir.
I think it should be an elixir that has the same medicinal effect as Jin Yuan Dan."
Gu Yu nodded: "Yes, I heard that the soldiers of the Northern Rakshasa also suddenly increased their skills, and it was also temporary. By the way, Senior Xuan Zhuzi, who is better than this Jinyuan Dan compared with the human race's special medicine?
Is the medicine more effective?"
Xuan Zhuzi smiled confidently and said: "I am not boasting, but no one in this foreign land can match my alchemy skills. The elixir refined by the human race is only high-grade and low-grade, and my pill is at least high-grade and top-grade.
The efficacy of the medicine is not comparable at all. It’s just that the time was too hasty, and I only managed to practice seventy-two pills.”
Hearing what Xuan Zhuzi said, Gu Yu was immediately overjoyed: "Senior is truly the number one person in alchemy. He can easily produce this high-grade elixir."
Xuan Zhuzi was in a good mood after practicing the elixir, and was praised by Gu Yu. He was even more happy. He laughed, waved his hand and said: "It's not a big deal. If there are good medicinal materials, I can refine it."
There are higher-level elixirs with better efficacy. And this time something unexpected happened. The Monkey King asked me to refine this elixir for him just a few days ago. If you give me more time, I can still make this elixir.
The quality of the furnace elixir has been improved."
There is no doubt about Xuan Zhuzi's alchemy skills. He was the leading alchemist in the human world. After so many years of training, Xuan Zhuzi's alchemy skills have naturally developed further.
You can even practice medicine, let alone this high-grade elixir.
Gu Yu nodded and said: "Senior, how much can one's skill improve after taking this pill? Will there be any side effects after taking it?" Gu Yu did not believe that such a pill that could temporarily improve one's skill would have no side effects.
Xuan Zhuzi laughed slowly and said: "The reason why Jinyuan Dan can improve a practitioner's skill in a short period of time is actually to trigger the hidden strength in a person's body, causing it to burst out in a short period of time and improve the practitioner's skill.
The consequences of this are also quite serious. For example, a person can only run two thousand meters, but if he exceeds the limit and runs three thousand meters or more, his physical strength will be greatly consumed.
, in the following days, your body will feel weak and weak. It is for this reason that after taking this Jin Yuan Dan, the hidden strength in the body will be triggered in a short time, maybe in the next few days or even longer
, will lose all his power and become an ordinary person."
Xuan Zhuzi's words shocked Gu Yu. If a cultivator loses his skills in this chaotic and dangerous foreign land, wouldn't it be equivalent to waiting for death? Thinking of this, Gu Yu couldn't help but become cautious, and even began to reconsider the human race's conspiracy.
