Chapter 13 The alchemy stove does not concoct alchemy but only cooks vegetables
Lin Feng was not disappointed. If there was a skill point, then he could only have chosen the skill point wrongly. Otherwise, he would not be talented in cooking. Once he reached the level of cultivation, he would hit a wall everywhere.
Taking the two medicinal materials left by the senior sister, Lin Feng began to try to cook with these medicinal materials rich in spiritual power.
Because he had never come into contact with it before, Lin Feng was not sure, so he cut a little off and tried boiling it in water to taste the actual taste.
It's just that the leek-like tengyang grass was boiled in water for seven or eight minutes, but there was no sign of softening.
Lin Feng was stunned because it was not cooked properly. This was really confusing.
Yue'er grew up in a cultivation environment. Although she didn't know many medicinal herbs, Tengyang grass was an extremely common medicinal herb. Otherwise, the senior sister wouldn't have given Lin Feng a large handful to try cooking.
She pondered for a while and said, "Is it because the fire is not good? I heard that these materials are rich in spiritual energy, so there is something extraordinary about them."
Lin Feng thought about it carefully and found that it was really possible. After all, it was often written in novels that elixir fire, strange fire, and even Samadhi true fire were mostly used when refining alchemy. I had never heard of using firewood.
Alchemy.
But this would be troublesome. I was just a second-level qi-training rookie. Let alone Danhuo, I couldn't even learn the palm techniques that brought fire qi.
Yue'er's eyes lit up, and she asked Ye'er, "Do you still remember the little alchemy furnace she gave you last time we went to Jiuding Peak to play with Sister Tian?"
Ye'er's eyes also lit up. After all, Jiuding Peak is one of the seven peaks handed down by the way of alchemy. There are not many others, but there are people who make alchemy, elixirs, and medicinal materials.
She hurriedly fiddled with the treasure gourd, and out of it fell a small stove less than half a person's height. The stove had three legs, and the furnace body was partially hollowed out and painted with many patterns.
Yue'er said: "By the way, this is it. Sister Tian also learned alchemy from Senior Sister Six. When she was promoted to alchemy, she got a higher quality alchemy furnace. This one was eliminated and you cried and complained.
I came over here, but in the end it just sat idle since I didn’t know how to use it!”
Ye'er was a little embarrassed. When she got this thing, it was like a pearl covered in dust. Although it was only a first-grade alchemy furnace, it was still very precious to them in the Qi training period.
At first, she was confused, crying and fussing to get back, but Qian Xuefeng was a famous peak in swordsmanship. Apart from the great killing skills, there was no alchemy at all. Over time, her alchemy plan was shelved.
It's a good time to take it out now. After all, the alchemy furnace has a magic circle that can activate the alchemy fire to refine medicine.
When Lin Feng saw it, it was a good thing, and he rubbed the two little lolita's faces excitedly, making their fair and tender cheeks turn red.
Three people, one large, two small, gathered around the alchemy furnace to ponder it. After a while, Yue'er was surprised and said: "It actually needs to be driven by spiritual stones!"
Spirit stones are the hard currency in the world of cultivation. They are used as coins and can also be used for cultivation. They are extremely valuable.
The Xuanji Sect is rich and powerful, Qian Xuefeng is even more pitiful with a small population, and the senior sister is very generous, and she often rewards them with bits and pieces of first-grade spiritual stones.
Most of the spirit stones were used by the two little lolita for eating, drinking and having fun, leaving only a few for emergencies.
When she thought of this, Ye'er's little heart went crazy. She had both of their spiritual stones in her little purse, and there were only four first-grade spiritual stones left. She was planning to do so a few days ago.
I'm going to buy some delicious food when senior sister goes out again.
"Ye'er, take a spiritual stone and try it. This is a first-grade alchemy furnace. It is estimated that a first-grade spiritual stone can activate it for most of the day!" Yue'er said.
Ye'er had a grimace on her face, the future generations of misers would look like her, and she felt so distressed.
Lin Feng patted her on the head and said: "Why are you so confused? Anyway, it's for Senior Sister to eat. Ask her for reimbursement. What's more, if this herbal medicine is successfully developed, we will be the biggest beneficiaries. We can't figure out the cultivation level."
It’s going up!”
When Ye'er heard it, she was right, and she didn't feel bad at all. She took out her small purse and took out a spiritual stone that looked the smallest and put it into the alchemy furnace. In fact, the spiritual stones were all of the same size, but it was just a psychological effect.
Put the spiritual stone into the alchemy furnace, and then pull the mechanism, you will see steam rising from the alchemy furnace and a small fire.
At the same time, a color bar appeared on the surface of the alchemy furnace, which seemed to be the remaining amount of spiritual stones. Looking at this speed, it would definitely be no problem to consume a first-grade spiritual stone for most of a day.
Lin Feng rolled up his sleeves and put in the chopped celery to try.
At the same time, there was suddenly a little more information in my mind. This information had actually always been in my mind, but the information contained in the Taishang Lingbaojian was too huge. Without specific inquiries, it was just like a paste.
As soon as the information emerged, Lin Feng understood it clearly and said immediately: "I will control the flames!"
The mechanism is like a gas stove in later generations. The energy supply can be large or small. It is all controlled by the mechanism. It is very simple.
Simmer on high fire for three minutes, medium fire for two minutes, and then simmer on low heat for four minutes. Suddenly a scent of aroma came out of the stove. Lin Feng hurriedly opened the lid and took out the Tengyang Grass.
The heat was moderate, and according to the guidance of the Taishang Lingbaojian, the Tengyang grass was not turned into a medicinal liquid like an elixir, but was steamed.
Following the same pattern as the gourd, Lin Feng obtained the fire control of the Fengwen grass. Lin Feng also processed the Fengwen grass similar to celery before starting to cook.
Fried eggs with leeks and fried meat with celery are the two main dishes today. I made seven dishes and one soup using the materials on hand. After cleaning up the living room, the senior sister just arrived.
Lin Feng looked nervously at the senior sister who put celery in her mouth and chewed it, not daring to take a bite.
While chewing, the senior sister's eyes lit up and she said with some surprise: "About 70% to 80%."
Lin Feng was also stunned. There were actually so many. He originally thought that about 30% would be good. You must know that swallowing the spiritual grass alive can generally only absorb about one-tenth.
While alchemy making seems cost-effective, in fact, a first-grade Qi-Yi Dan has one main material and twelve auxiliary materials. After smelting, even the best Qi-Yi Dan can only lock in 40% of the potency of all elixirs.
The most regrettable thing is that the elixir is poisonous. Taking too much will be harmful to the improvement of the realm. When the cultivation level is low, the difference will not be visible. It will only show up when the cultivation level is high, adding a lot of trouble to the advancement.
What's even more pity is that only those like Lin Feng, who possesses the Supreme Body Refining Chart and the Supreme Divine Cultivation Record, can perfectly absorb the potency of the elixir in three to seven parts.
When no special means are used, the average person can absorb at most 70% of the potency of the elixir.
Calculating this loss, if Lin Feng made medicinal materials into delicacies, the utilization rate would be almost 80%.
The only pity is that this method cannot be promoted on a large scale, and it is not as convenient as elixirs.
But this is enough. Lin Feng never intended to be the world's cook. It is a great deal for just a few people to use it on a small scale!
