While Concubine Wu Hui was hesitating, Bai Gui left the Furong Garden early to avoid the opportunity to meet Concubine Wu Hui.
With Bai Gui's martial arts skills, when he was in the main world, he could wake up before the autumn wind moved.
Someone was following him deliberately, and the person following him was just an ordinary maid.
How could he not be aware of it at all.
Although Concubine Wu Hui was beautiful, Bai Gui avoided her like a scorpion. With his current identity and status, he had no shortage of confidantes, but Concubine Wu Hui, a harem concubine with such a strong purpose, he would never dare to touch.
Leaving aside Li Longji's appreciation and trust in him, just talking about the consequences of touching this person will be harmful but not beneficial.
It took half a quarter of an hour after Bai Gui left.
Concubine Wu Hui figured it out.
Quietly and his confidant maid came to the wing where Bai Gui had rested for a while.
But the building was already empty of people.
…
In Jiannan Road, there were governor Shi Yang Xuanyan and Sima Lin Tiannan to help handle government affairs, so Bai Gui had free time and was able to stay in Chang'an for a long time.
Although Li Longji, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, has determined his rewards, titles, appointments, etc., the court has not yet made a final decision on the military exploits of the people in Jiannan Road, so Bai Gui also needs to stay in Chang'an to supervise this.
thing.
When it comes to rewards for meritorious service, logically speaking, it is not his turn to intervene, but if someone intervenes, there is definitely a huge difference between the reward if no one intervenes.
For example, if Bai Gui himself did not come to the palace to intercede for mercy with the help of Princess Jinxian, Li Longji thought of the relationship between brother and sister and gave him as high a reward as possible. He would definitely be promoted, but would there be a title, reward, and such trust...
...If the entire Jiannan Road and Jingnan Protectorate were handed over to him, that would not necessarily be the case.
Only with strength and connections can you go further. Only strength, without reward for high achievements, only connections will make you unstable.
Fortunately, he is now somewhat shy in the court, so the old rewards given by the officials to his generals are quite good, and the rewards are in place, without neglecting their merits.
During this period, Bai Gui and Princess Jinxian also collected the medicine for refining the outer elixir.
You can start refining the external elixir.
Chang'an, Baoningfang.
Haotian view.
Bai Gui had no experience in refining external elixirs, so he had to ask his master for help.
"Bright sand, this is the color of the highest quality..."
"High-quality bright sand, Chuchen, among the Jinshan rocks, on the white stone bed, twelve pieces form a single stone, and the color is like a red lotus that has not bloomed, bright and bright. There are also nine living ones. Twelve pieces, nine
The most powerful piece is the most powerful, followed by the rest.”
"There is a big one in each building, which can be the master, weighing more than ten taels. The four small ones weigh seven or eight taels..."
"Purple spirit sand, cinnabar, horse tooth sand..., although these are not top grade, they are still among the middle grade."
Hou Shaowei, the leader of the Zongsheng Temple, looked at the various colored cinnabars in front of him and said in slight surprise.
"Junior brother is a dignitary of the imperial court. It is normal to get these top-grade and medium-grade cinnabar by searching all over the world."
The eldest disciple Zhou Wenxuandao.
"This is all the credit of the two princesses. Although I am in charge of the Jiannan territory and have a little power, I can collect cinnabar from all over Shuzhong, but it is difficult for me to collect so much cinnabar with such a complete range of categories.
Done..."
Bai Gui shook his head and said.
He still has some prestige in Jiannan Road, and can use a lot of manpower and material resources to help him mine sand. But outside the territory, it is difficult to do anything outside.
As for these cinnabar, Guangming sand comes from Yanzhou, Ziling sand comes from Daibei, and other sands are probably similar.
"This is what the Alchemy Scripture says..."
"The bait used by Fu Lian is like getting the highest grade of immortality. In the center of the throne is a piece of monarch sand. If Fu Lian eats it, he can easily become a top immortal."
"If you practice it with medium-grade sand, it will be much worse."
Hou Shaowei sighed.
Although it is only the difference between high-grade and medium-grade, the high-grade cinnabar is all spiritual energy without any impurity. After practicing the outer elixir and taking it as a Taoist, it is equivalent to taking an elixir. It is said that it will not be able to ascend during the day, but it will definitely be shortened by an unknown amount.
time.
When using middle-grade cinnabar to make elixirs, even if the elixir is made with great skill, the elixir after it is completed will be far different from the elixir produced from high-grade cinnabar.
"Since you brought this Alchemy Book and these cinnabar..."
"Louguan Taoism has a tradition of taking bait..."
Having said this, Hou Shaowei paused and glanced at Zhou Wenxuan and Bai Gui again, "It's just that in Louguan Taoism, we rarely accept disciples with low qualifications, and the general bait is not as good as our Qi collection."
The methods of guidance are very different, so I have never taught you how to refine foreign medicine and use it as bait."
"This alchemy sutra has a great background, and the bait contained in it is unusual, so it can be used."
The Fuyi School is an early Taoist school.
The most famous one is Xu Fu's search for the elixir of immortality for Qin Shi Huang Ying Zheng.
"I took care of Shuhe, I took advantage of the bait and had few skills. From spring to summer, the three infants gathered together." - "Book of Wei·Wenyuan·Pei Bomao".
The three babies refer to the essence and spirit of the human body.
The most common baits include gold stone medicine, cinnabar, realgar, mica and the like.
The "Medicine Methods of Immortals Taking Bait Danshi" written by Mr. Jingli of the Sui Dynasty contains the preparation and administration methods of cinnabar, realgar, stalactite, stone fat and other single ingredients. Among them, 21 pieces of cinnabar are used as bait, and realgar is used as bait.
Eleven parties.
Pills, diet, and food are also common forms of food.
"Thank you, Master!"
Bai Gui and Zhou Wenxuan said in unison.
At this moment, Hou Shaowei mentioned Lou Guan Tao's inheritance about taking bait, which was a warning to the two of them not to take any shortcuts. Ordinary taking bait is not as good as them guiding and gathering Qi. Instead of focusing on external things, it is better to cultivate internal strength diligently.
The purpose was definitely not just to introduce the Fuying Sect or some secrets of Louguan Taoism to the two of them.
Both of them were carefully selected disciples, so they quickly understood the meaning of Hou Shaowei's teachings.
"Well, as long as you two know this, that's fine."
Hou Shaowei was very pleased.
The two disciples were neither arrogant nor impetuous, and behaved calmly. They were both excellent cultivators.
There will be success in the future.
"What this Alchemy Sutra contains is exactly the cinnabar in gold and stone medicine..."
"To refine this cinnabar, three tripods are needed. The first is a gold tripod, the second is a silver tripod, the third is a copper tripod, the fourth is an iron tripod, and the fifth is an earthen tripod. The earthen tripod is also made of porcelain."
"For gold cauldrons, take eight taels of gold and make it into a round cauldron...and use two taels of gold to make the lid of the cauldron..."
"Put the cinnabar into the cauldron and use the fire to fly down..."
"Five days are one period, three periods are one Qi, and eight Qi are used for twenty-four periods. After one hundred and twenty days, the sand will fall."
"Each Feifu lasts for five days, with the Kan hexagram used on the fourth day and the Li hexagram used on the first day. The Kan hexagram is boiled by water, and the fourth day Li hexagram is used by the Yang Huo... If there is mercury and frost gas coming out, that is
Mix the sand in a bowl and grind it with your hands with a jade hammer..."
Hou Shaowei said slowly.
Everything he said is a secret that is not passed down in the sect, and it is also the true inheritance of the sect.
For example, there are five types of cauldrons used for practicing external elixirs, and the heat of elixirs also has various hexagram positions. During the process of refining elixirs, if you encounter any emergencies, how to deal with them.
He explained everything very carefully.
"Mercury, cinnabar..."
"Frost..., that is, arsenic..."
A strange look flashed in Bai Gui's eyes.
According to the science of the main world, they are refining poison, and it will kill people if they take it. However, his weird look is fleeting, and the experience of one world cannot be used to judge another world. This is not called science.
It is an error that violates empiricism.
For example, cinnabar, there is absolutely no such high-grade cinnabar in different colors in the main world. He can feel abundant inspiration from that bright sand.
