After school on Monday morning, Xia Haoran said to Tian Yuan, the fat boy at the same table: "I have something to do and I won't have class in the afternoon. If any teacher asks, please excuse me." The fat boy agreed.
After leaving school, Xia Haoran went straight to the small commodity wholesale market and bought more than five hundred 100 ml small glass bottles. Then he hailed a taxi and went straight to the abandoned factory in the suburbs.
He knew that the process of refining alchemy was similar to that of making talismans, and it could explode if you were not careful. Therefore, it was better not to do this learning process at home.
Then, the only place that is suitable for you to toss is the abandoned factory where you went to learn talisman seal last time. It is a remote place with sparsely populated areas, so you won't be disturbed by others, and you won't have to worry about others discovering your secrets.
It's still the same place where I practiced Talisman and Seal last time.
Xia Haoran thought, and a three-legged cauldron over one meter high appeared out of thin air on the cement floor! Good guy, is this the complete form of Shennong's cauldron?
However, it is no longer surprising to him that treasures can be big or small. Things in the world of cultivation are not comparable to those ordinary objects and iron that ordinary people come into contact with. Xia Haoran put his hand on the alchemy furnace and immediately released a trace of
The real energy was slowly transported into the cauldron. At this moment, a surging and active heat wave hit his face, but this heat wave had no effect on him at all. Xia Haoran knew that this was the fire in the stone!
Generally speaking, only the top alchemy furnaces in the world of cultivation have the possibility of storing fire, let alone famous artifacts like the Shennong Cauldron.
Xia Haoran took his hand back and looked at the Shennong Cauldron in front of him, his eyes flashing with thought, "If we can activate the fire in the stone, we can get twice the result with half the effort when making alchemy in the future!"
After thinking for a moment, Xia Haoran once again released a trace of true energy and sent it into the alchemy furnace with a ray of his own consciousness. As soon as that ray of consciousness entered the alchemy furnace, he felt as if he had entered a world of fire.
There was a flaming sea everywhere, and there were beating flames everywhere. Violent, violent, destructive, hot...all kinds of feelings poured into his mind.
Unknowingly, Xia Haoran felt as if he had become a flame in the sea of fire, unleashing the power of fire in the world of fire.
As Xia Haoran merged more and more into the sea of fire, the fiery red color of the five-color true essence droplet in his dantian became brighter and brighter, and then the other four colors of gold, green, blue, and yellow also began to glow, driven by the fiery red color.
become brighter.
The five elements are interdependent and mutually reinforcing each other, over and over again!
I don’t know how long it took, but Xia Haoran finally took his hand back, and his consciousness also returned to his body. Without enough time to detect the changes in his Dantian, Xia Haoran pinched a magic formula towards the Shennong Cauldron, and saw that the Shennong Cauldron was faintly glowing red.
It was as if there was a flame burning inside the furnace wall.
"The ten-thousand-year spiritual stone is hidden in the fire! I really didn't expect that the fire in the stone was sealed in the Shennong Cauldron. Although the long years have obliterated its consciousness, it undoubtedly shows that this Shennong Cauldron is a rare treasure."
Xia Haoran couldn't help but feel that he was lucky enough to obtain such a treasure. He believed that with the help of the Shennong Cauldron, his rise was already vaguely visible.
In addition, although the consciousness of the Shennong Cauldron has been wiped out and its level has dropped a lot, Haoran firmly believes that as long as it is in an environment containing spiritual energy, this fire will continue to grow. Moreover, as his cultivation level improves, as long as the opportunity comes in the future
, there is no possibility of recovery. After all, refining elixir is not the same as boiling medicine. If you have the help of the cauldron spirit, you can get twice the result with half the effort!
After adjusting his breath to calm down his excitement for a while, Xia Haoran took out a lot of medicinal materials. These were just the most common medicinal materials purchased on the market. They had no aura at all, but they were all without any surprise.
It is a good product for tonic, strengthening the body and improving the vitality. He plans to use the method of alchemy to purify it.
Use the method of alchemy to simply refine the medicinal materials, purify the efficacy, and maximize the effect.
In this way, it is a rare supplement not only for ordinary people, but also for Xia Haoran who has a foundation-building level of cultivation! Although the effect is very low, it is better than nothing. This is also the best solution he can think of at present.
Throw in the medicinal herbs one by one, cover the cauldron, observe the overall situation with your spiritual consciousness, and control the heat with your true energy.
"Buzz..."
After a moment, the cauldron can be heard humming slightly, and the medicinal materials have begun to be refined.
Xia Haoran felt that it was almost done, so he opened the lid of the cauldron and put in another batch of medicinal materials.
"Bang..."
When a medicinal plant is put in, a ball of flame immediately rises, and all the medicinal materials in the cauldron are burned to ashes.
Or the use of the true essence is not skillful enough, and there is a deviation in the control of the heat. The purification of medicinal materials requires extremely precision, and the consequence of deviation is that the medicinal materials will be wasted.
This is just a simple purification of ordinary medicinal materials. If those great monks refine high-grade elixirs, the medicine cauldron will explode frequently. What's worse, it is common for the cauldron to explode and people will be involved and die.
Xia Haoran was aware of this situation, his expression remained unchanged, and he was already prepared in his heart.
After closing the lid of the cauldron, Xia Haoran extinguished the flames with his hands and poured out the burned residue. Then he cleaned the cauldron and started refining it again.
"Bang..."
A moment later, the same situation occurred.
Slowly, smoke began to fill the small yard. Xia Haoran ignored it and continued to focus on refining.
fail!
fail!
After failing again and again, he saw that most of the medicinal materials were wasted, but Xia Haoran still had a calm face and a calm heart. Because, in this repeated failure, he gradually became more proficient in controlling the heat and practicing the purification techniques.
Success is getting closer.
You must know that the purification step is the most important step in the process of alchemy.
This includes: the order in which the medicinal materials are put in. If the order is wrong, it will definitely not work. Alchemy pays attention to the monarch and ministers as the main assistant; the second is to remove the waste and retain the essence, remove impurities and leave the essence; the third is the fusion of medicinal liquids.
Among them, it is necessary to test the alchemist's mentality, fire control ability, alchemy techniques, as well as the understanding and understanding of the medicinal properties of medicinal materials, etc.
"Buzz..."
Finally, after another medicinal plant was put in, the medicine cauldron trembled slightly, and a ray of glow seemed to emit and passed away in a flash. It was so slight that if an ordinary person saw it here, he would even wonder if there was something wrong with his eyesight.
Then, the strong medicinal fragrance fills the air, whetting one's appetite.
Xia Haoran's eyes flashed with joy, and he knew that he finally succeeded this time!
After pinching the magic weapon to extinguish the flame, Xia Haoran opened the lid of the cauldron. Unexpectedly, so many medicinal materials were thrown in. In the end, there was only a palm-sized puddle of medicinal liquid at the bottom of the cauldron, which was crystal clear.
"The fragrance of the medicine is so strong, and the glow is blooming. The quality of this medicine is much better than I imagined!"
Xia Haoran was extremely happy. He leaned close to the liquid, took a deep breath, and felt extremely comfortable. He quickly poured the liquid into the small glass bottle that had been prepared.
After holding the small glass bottle and being excited for a while, Xia Haoran finally calmed down and took out all the medicinal materials collected twice from the space in the cauldron.
Strike while the iron is hot!
Two hours later, Xia Haoran looked at the glass bottles placed on the floor beside him, and burst into laughter with joy. Unexpectedly, after the pile of medicinal materials was finally refined, 29 bottles were filled.
That is nearly 3,000 ml of medicinal liquid essence!
These are all treasures!
They were all put into the space inside the cauldron, and the Shennong Cauldron was also put into the sea of consciousness. Xia Haoran stared at a glass bottle in his hand, observed it for a long time, opened the bottle cap, raised his head, swallowed a drop into his mouth, and quickly sat cross-legged on the ground.
Carefully feel the changes in your body.
Although the amount of this drop of medicine is very small, it is the purified essence. When the medicine is taken in, it turns into spiritual power. With Xia Haoran's cultivation level in the foundation building period, there is no problem at all. However, if it is for ordinary people, then
It is absolutely unbearable and cannot be swallowed directly!
The best way is, of course, to use it as a medicated diet or medicated bath. Let’s not mention medicated baths for the time being. The pain is unbearable for ordinary people. So, now only medicated diet is the best choice. Let the medicinal solution
When blended into food, the potency is still the same, but after it is diluted and diluted, it is no longer so violent and ordinary people can withstand it.
"This is a good method, yes, just do it!"
Just do it if you think of it.
On the way back to the city, Xia Haoran passed by a shopping supermarket and walked in.
After a cup of tea, Xia Haoran walked out with his hands full of large and small bags of things. There were pork butt meat, chicken legs, bream, lettuce, green peppers, lettuce... What's even more exaggerated is that Huai
There was also a casserole jar that was only used for boiling Chinese medicine.
When I got home, I looked at the time. My parents were going to get off work in about half an hour, so I had to get started quickly. Xia Haoran rarely cooked at home before, but as the saying goes: Don't eat pork, but you have seen it.
A pig walks. After all, he has grown up with more than ten years of food. He rarely does anything, but it doesn't mean that he doesn't know anything.
Wash the large casserole clean and place it on the gas stove. Throw the chicken legs you just bought into it, add water, without adding any seasonings, boil it first and then blanch the water. Then, put the blanched chicken legs into the large casserole
Add star anise, ginger slices, bay leaves, salt and other condiments and an appropriate amount of water. Finally, take out a bottle of liquid medicine and pour out seven or eight ml, cover it and start stewing.
Pick vegetables, wash vegetables, and cut vegetables.
Xia Haoran held a kitchen knife for the first time, but he felt not guilty at all! With the help of his super plug-in, everything was no problem.
Start cooking.
It's good to have two stoves in one, one stove is used to stew chicken soup in a casserole, and the other stove is used for stir-frying.
Quickly, stir-fry is done! Stir-fried lean meat with green pepper, stir-fried shredded lettuce, braised fish, garlic and lettuce.
Four dishes and one soup, a combination of meat and vegetables, simple and hearty! Red peppers, green vegetables, golden fish... The colors are rich but not messy, making people look full of appetite, not to mention the smell that makes people greedy.
It smells fragrant. Of course, this is why Xia Haoran will put two drops of liquid into it every time he stir-fries a dish.
What? You asked me about soup?
Of course it's the chicken soup simmering in the casserole.
The aroma in the casserole began to fill the air. Xia Haoran looked at the time, turned on the rice cooker, cooked the rice, and then stood in the kitchen, closely monitoring the movement of the casserole.
After the chicken soup is simmered, the lid of the casserole is opened, and the fragrant chicken soup comes out of the pot. Because of the addition of that part of the medicinal liquid, there seems to be a trace of liquid leaking out of the chicken soup when it comes out of the pot. The rich aroma is almost irresistible.
Xia Haoran licked his lips, picked out a small piece, and swallowed it without caring about burning it, and then his eyes lit up! This was the first time he had enjoyed such a delicious thing when he was so big!
What's more important is the medicinal power contained in it. As the food enters the stomach, it instantly penetrates the whole body and nourishes the blood vessels.
Cool!
It’s so cool!
It was as if every pore was opened.
Now he is waiting for his parents to come back from get off work and enjoy dinner together. Xia Haoran is afraid of something unexpected happening and does not dare to leave. He just stays in the living room and keeps an eye on the kitchen.
You know, these four dishes and one soup actually used up almost ten milliliters of medicinal solution! This is all money. I spent nearly a million on two purchases of medicinal materials! There were only 29 bottles of medicinal solution, counting each bottle
More than 30,000 yuan, so the cost of this meal is as high as more than 3,000 yuan!
However, this small amount of money is just a drop in the bucket for Xia Haoran now, not to mention that it is a treat for his parents and relatives. In order for them to have a good health, no matter how much he spends or invests, it is worth it.
When his consciousness scanned the area and saw that his parents had walked into the gate of the community, Xia Haoran wiped the dining table and started serving dishes and rice.
