h2> "Brother Dongyuan, are we about to start?" Hearing Qin Dongyuan's voice, Qin Feng could no longer talk to Meng Lin and quickly returned to Qin Dongyuan's house.
"It will take another hour..." Qin Dongyuan shook his head, pointed to a wooden bucket placed next to the alchemy furnace, and said: "Put the liquid in the bucket evenly into the inner wall of the alchemy furnace..."
"What is this used for?" Qin Feng walked to the barrel strangely, sniffed hard, and immediately understood, and said: "Brother Dongyuan, is this the juice of a medicinal material?"
"Well, this is the juice from the rhizome of Bai Cao Xian. This plant is rather weird. It has no effect of curing diseases or saving lives..."
Qin Dongyuan nodded and said: "However, after grinding the rhizome of this kind of white grass fairy into juice, it can withstand high temperatures and can effectively prevent the loss of other medicinal properties of the herbs in the alchemy furnace. You are lucky to have harvested this stuff.
came back……"
Originally, Qin Dongyuan did not expect to find a plant like White Grass Immortal in this space, but Qin Feng's backpack gave him a surprise. With the help of White Grass Immortal, Qin Dongyuan became more confident about successfully refining the elixir.
Some.
“The sap from the rhizomes of plants can withstand high temperatures?”
Qin Feng smelled the juice and found that it was indeed a herb that he had picked before. However, Qin Feng did not recognize this medicinal material when he picked it. He picked it after seeing how old it was.
Qin Feng had more than a dozen kinds of indistinguishable herbs in his backpack. With the intention of killing the wrong ones, Qin Feng swept through almost all the plants of previous years in the canyon.
Qin Feng thought for a moment and said: "Brother Dongyuan, I have never made an elixir before, otherwise... you should apply the juice of the White Grass Immortal?"
In fact, strictly speaking, Qin Feng once refined elixirs for Peng Hong in Baku Town, but the equipment at that time was so crude that Qin Feng himself felt that he was lucky enough to successfully refine it, so he has been refining it since he came back.
I was too embarrassed to mention it to Qin Dongyuan.
Moreover, the elixir refining this time was used to treat Meng Yao's condition, which was of great significance to Qin Feng. He did not want his negligence to affect the final elixir, so he wanted Qin Dongyuan to do it himself.
"You are a martial artist who can't even do this little thing well?" After hearing Qin Feng's words, Qin Dongyuan curled his lips in dissatisfaction and said: "Is it possible that what the alchemy boy I recruited over there can accomplish?
You can’t do it?”
"Brother Dongyuan, I'm sorry, do you think I'm an alchemy boy?"
Seeing Qin Dongyuan's smug look, Qin Feng suddenly understood and said immediately: "Okay, let alone the alchemy boy, I have also done it. As long as Brother Dongyuan can make the elixir,
Refined for me, I can do whatever I want..."
As he spoke, Qin Feng picked up the wooden bucket, dipped some juice on the brush on the side of the bucket, and spread it evenly on the inner wall of the alchemy furnace.
This kind of juice dries very quickly after leaving the barrel. After Qin Feng applied it once, the front part was basically attached, and then he could apply it a second time. In this way, Qin Feng applied it five times.
That's when all the juice in the bucket was used up.
"Come, follow me to worship the ancestor, and bless our alchemy success this time..."
After Qin Feng finished smearing the alchemy furnace, Qin Dongyuan pulled him into the main room. Above the Eight Immortals table, a picture was hung at some point, which showed a Taoist with a Taoist and immortal temperament.
"Brother Dongyuan, who is this?" Qin Feng knew at a glance that this painting was written by Qin Dongyuan, but he had never seen the Taoist in the painting. He had read the ancient Taoist classics several times, Qin Feng didn't even figure out who it was.
"This is Immortal Master Ge Hong..."
Qin Dongyuan said with a respectful look: "Although there has been alchemy since the pre-Qin Dynasty, only Immortal Ge Hong's alchemy is authentic. His method of alchemy without cinnabar is his own. Legend has it that Immortal Ge Hong once practiced immortality. The elixir can be used to ascend and break through the realm..."
"Brother Dongyuan, I only know now that you are a fan of Ge Hong..." Seeing Qin Dongyuan's serious expression, Qin Feng couldn't help laughing. He had known Qin Dongyuan for so long, and this was the first time he saw Qin Dongyuan. So much respect for a person.
"What are fans?" Although Qin Dongyuan has worked very hard to learn the knowledge of this world, he still doesn't know the meaning of some words.
"You can go back and check this yourself..."
Qin Feng said: "How come the records I saw about Ge Hong are different from what you said, Brother Dongyuan? His alchemy in the inner chapter of Baopuzi is more about how to refine gold. Silver, there is no content about using plants as medicine?"
Qin Feng is also familiar with Taoist classics and has read all the works of Baopuzi, also known as Ge Hong. However, the records in them are somewhat inconsistent with what Qin Dongyuan said. Ge Hong's alchemy and modern chemical knowledge are not the same. Somewhat similar.
"Those things you see may not be those written by Immortal Master Ge Hong..."
After hearing Qin Feng's words, Qin Dongyuan said disapprovingly: "I have a few immortal master's alchemy books at my place. I will show them to you when I get back. This Heavenly King's Heart-Protective Pill is the recipe left by the immortal master Ge Hong. You’ll know it at a glance…”
"Okay, I must take a look when I go back this time..."
Qin Feng nodded when he heard this. He knew a lot of historical truths. It was not as recorded in history books. Maybe it was not impossible that someone actually wrote the book "Baopuzi" in Ge Hong's name.
"Okay, after paying homage to Immortal Master Ge Hong, we will start refining elixirs..."
Qin Dongyuan lit three sticks of incense and respectfully inserted them into the incense burner in front of the portrait. After hearing Qin Dongyuan's words, Qin Feng was no longer so repelled by Ge Hong, and now he respected Ge Hong as well. Three sticks of incense were put on it.
"Can we start?" Qin Feng asked after worshiping Ge Hong's portrait.
"That's enough..." Qin Dongyuan came to the alchemy furnace and said, "Remember, in the first six hours, use low fire to keep the temperature in the alchemy furnace at about 40 degrees, which is conducive to the evaporation of the medicinal properties... …”
"I must have done this job..." Before Qin Dongyuan's instructions, Qin Feng said: "Don't worry, within six hours, I will keep the fire warm and never let the temperature in the alchemy furnace exceed 40 degrees. of……"
"Well, children can be taught..."
Qin Dongyuan touched the beard under his chin, walked straight to a reclining chair in front of the alchemy stove and sat down. He picked up a purple clay pot next to him that had already made tea. After taking a sip, he said: "Turn on the gas stove. You don’t need me to teach you, right? Remember, you can only use warm fire..."
"Okay, just drink tea and have a rest..." Qin Feng really has no temper at all now. In order to treat Meng Yao, let alone Qin Dongyuan, Qin Feng stayed awake for seven days and seven nights to guard this place.
Dan Lu, Qin Feng is also willing to do so.
Six hours was really nothing to Qin Feng and the others. It passed in the blink of an eye. Just when the time arrived, Qin Dongyuan, who had been closing his eyes to rest, suddenly opened his eyes and said: "Put out the open fire,
Use true energy to cool down the alchemy furnace so that the herbs can crystallize..."
Although he didn't understand what Qin Dongyuan meant, Qin Feng's movements were not slow at all. While turning off the gas with one hand, the other palm was already attached to the alchemy furnace.
A layer of frost suddenly appeared on the surface, but it was formed by the condensation of Qin Feng's true essence.
"Keep it for three hours. After the herbs crystallize, bake them over high fire immediately..." Qin Dongyuan was very satisfied with Qin Feng's performance. He crossed his legs and said, "If I had an alchemy boy like you back then, I wouldn't have ruined my life."
I have prepared a very precious elixir..."
Real alchemy is not just as simple as controlling a furnace fire, but requires the complementation of yin and yang. This means that except for Huajin warriors who can transform the attributes of true energy, no one else can perform alchemy.
When Qin Dongyuan was an alchemy boy, he could at best help him clean the herbs and clean the alchemy furnace, but he couldn't help him at all when he was actually refining alchemy. Qin Dongyuan had to do it all by himself, and there was no room for any mistakes.
Moreover, it takes a long time to refine a furnace of elixirs. Sometimes it even takes seven or eight days. Even a powerful warrior would find it too much. This is why Qin Dongyuan often fails in refining elixirs.
At that time, Qin Dongyuan used firewood to make elixirs. He needed to constantly add fire or pull out burning firewood to control the temperature. But now that there is gas, controlling fire has become easier. Qin Feng therefore also
A lot more relaxed.
But even so, Qin Feng was ordered around by Qin Dongyuan. After the fire baked for three hours, it turned to a warm fire, and then he needed to use his true energy to cool down. This process went on over and over for seven or eight days.
Second-rate.
For three whole days and three nights, Qin Feng was almost sleepless. On the fourth day, Qin Dongyuan finally took over and started the final refining work of the elixir. He had completely given up on using gas for fire, and
He is consuming his own real energy to heat or cool down the alchemy furnace.
This process lasted for nearly ten hours. Even if Qin Dongyuan's cultivation was profound, there was steaming heat coming out of his head at this time. It was obvious that the consumption in his body was very great. Although Qin Feng, who was resting next to him, wanted to help, he was unable to intervene at this moment.
Got started.
"Damn, so this is how alchemy is made?"
Qin Feng couldn't help, but his spiritual consciousness could observe the situation in the alchemy furnace. He found that Qin Dongyuan's true essence seemed to have turned into a pair of big hands, constantly stirring in the alchemy furnace, and the material that was originally refined was
The herbal medicine that was squeezed into a ball that looked like crystals actually formed pills the size of longan during the rolling process. r1152
