Chapter 14 Green Bud Dan

If we compare based solely on the level of spiritual veins, the three spiritual mountains in Longya Valley are almost on par with each other, making it difficult to distinguish between them.

However, perhaps because Taixuan Mountain occupies a smaller area, the spiritual energy in the mountain is stronger than that of the other two.

It is precisely because of this situation that hundreds of acres of spiritual fields have been opened in the mountains, most of which are planted with low-level spiritual grasses and spiritual grains.

The output of these spiritual fields is now Taixuan Mountain’s annual daily revenue source. Except for a small part that is refined into elixirs and sold by Xiaoshan, the rest of the spiritual herbs are purchased by merchants and stores at extremely low prices.

It's just to earn some hard work money.

Some time ago, Taixuan Mountain suffered a mass exodus of its disciples. Most of the low-level spiritual grass was destroyed, and the spiritual fields were almost deserted.

Nowadays, Taixuan Mountain cannot make ends meet, and there is not much money left. The only remaining spiritual stones can be saved thanks to the sale of Xiaoshan Alchemy.

Ever since they returned from Chaogu Ridge, Xiao Shan had never left the alchemy room. All his thoughts were focused on alchemy, and he hardly had much rest.

When Xiao Zhen came to the alchemy room, he happened to see Chen Ru running out of it crying, and faintly heard Xiao Shan's furious voice.

"Brother Headmaster."

As soon as she saw Xiao Zhen's figure, Chen Ru immediately stopped crying, but big tears kept dripping from her eyes.

"What happened? Why are you still crying?" Xiao Zhen comforted softly. Although Chen Ru is just a girl who has just turned sixteen, she has a very mature and stable temperament. She is not the kind of young lady who gets emotional after being slightly wronged.

.

"It's my fault. I ruined a batch of elixirs and made Uncle Shan angry again." Chen Ru seemed a little tired and in a daze.

Among the few remaining disciples, only Chen Ru had previous experience in assisting in alchemy, so Xiao Shan called her over to help look after the flames in the alchemy furnace and take care of some chores in the alchemy room.

In order to refine this batch of second-grade mid-grade Qingya Dan, the two of them have been working here for almost ten days. When they were tired, they took a nap to rest. They were really tired.

Just in the morning, Xiao Shan asked Chen Ru to take care of the firepower in the alchemy furnace. This furnace of elixirs would then be slowly baked for about two hours with the residual heat of the alchemy furnace, and the elixir would be collected and refined.

Unexpectedly, Chen Ru was not paying attention and accidentally let the fire rush into the alchemy furnace, destroying more than half of the alchemy base in an instant, and the entire furnace of elixirs was destroyed.

Because Xiaoshan uses a slow fire alchemy method, it often takes two or three days to refine a batch of elixirs. Therefore, you must be very careful in every step of the alchemy. A small flame can lead to final failure. Chen Ru's

One oversight means two days of work have been wasted.

This is the dilemma faced by individual alchemists from a small family with no alchemy inheritance.

Could such a result not make Xiao Shan furious? He scolded her on the spot.

"It's okay. It's just a furnace of second-level mid-grade elixirs. It's not a big deal. You've been working hard these past few days, so just go back and take a rest. Leave the matters here to me."

After some good talk by Xiao Zhen, Chen Ru was finally coaxed away.

Then, he walked into the alchemy room and came to Xiao Shan.

At this time, Xiaoshan was busy cleaning the alchemy furnace, shaking his head and sighing.

Originally, there were not many spiritual herbs stored in the mountain gate, and I was still hoping to refine the elixirs in exchange for some spiritual stones, but I didn't expect that some mistakes were made that shouldn't have been made.

Because he made five medicinal materials together, for such a small mistake, hundreds of spiritual stones were lost.

"Uncle, you have worked hard." Xiao Zhen praised sincerely.

"Oh, the leader is back." Xiao Shan looked back and saw Xiao Zhen standing aside. He looked around and asked in a low voice, "Did the trip go well?"

Xiao Zhen had already informed him in advance that he was going to auction the Moon Covering Token. He had even tried to persuade him to know that this kind of token was enough to be included in the heritage treasures of a small sect, and how could it be pushed out.

However, after all, he was not the leader of a sect, and he was not the one who made the final decision. Since Xiao Zhen insisted on doing this, he could only nod in agreement.

"Well, everything went smoothly. Next, we don't have to worry about others coveting the treasure." Xiao Zhen smiled casually.

"That's fine. You just stay in the mountain gate and try to practice more spells. Then you will be able to deal with various situations. I heard my ancestor say before that it is not a peaceful place.

Killing people to seize treasures is commonplace."

Xiao Zhen could only nod in agreement.

"By the way, since you're back, come over and help me first." Xiao Shan felt that the atmosphere was a bit heavy, so he called Xiao Zhen over to help, and by the way, he checked to see if his alchemy skills had deteriorated.

Over the past few decades, he has successively taught more than a dozen apprentices Dantong. There are really only a handful of people who can learn a few tricks, and Xiao Zhen is one of them.

If the alchemy is handed over to the other party, Xiao Shan is really worried and not optimistic about it. However, it is more than enough to just ask him to come and help.

"Okay, let's get started." The purpose of Xiao Zhen's trip was to verify the newly learned things, so he was naturally happy.

As a result, Xiao Zhen collaborated with Xiao Shan, from the initial arrangement of the elixir to the warming of the alchemy furnace, everything was done in an orderly manner without any mistakes.

Xiao Shan saw all this in his eyes, and the look in his eyes showed that he was very satisfied with Xiao Zhen's performance at the moment and praised him highly.

Xiao Zhen on the side was also astonished in his heart. He didn't expect that his alchemy skills had improved so much all of a sudden, because he felt that there was no hindrance when he was doing this, and his movements were extremely smooth.

Is it possible that after only a few days of preliminary understanding of the elixir formula, I can make such great progress?

However, with his current level, he could only help Xiao Shan. When the alchemy was officially started, he would have to wait and see.

Compared with the alchemy of martial fire, it pays more attention to the word "stable". As long as it is done step by step and roasted slowly with slow fire, it is not easy to fail. However, it is also because it cannot completely remove the impurities in the elixir when it is first tempered.

, so the quality of the elixir refined from it will be relatively low.

Generally speaking, most casual alchemists like Xiao Shan, who can only cross the river by feeling their own way, use the slow fire alchemy method.

Therefore, Xiao Zhen waited for another two days before the furnace of elixirs finally reached the stage of accumulating elixirs.

As long as the remaining heat in the alchemy furnace is slowly baked for two hours, the twenty-two alchemy pieces in the alchemy furnace will be completed. If you are lucky, you may be able to produce four or five medium-quality second-level elixirs.

Enjoy Qingya Dan.

Pills of the same grade are divided into high-grade, medium-grade, and low-grade pills. As the name suggests, the classification between them is mainly based on the amount of residual impurities in the pill.

When these impurities enter the body of a monk, they will turn into erysipelas, which will not only affect the absorption of the medicine, but may also block the meridians in the body. For monks, there is no one who is not afraid of erysipelas.

Therefore, the price of high-quality elixirs is much more expensive than that of low-quality elixirs. It is said that some alchemy masters can refine the best elixirs, and the impurities in such elixirs are almost negligible.

Although Xiao Shan can refine second-level high-grade elixirs, due to his poor elixir refining techniques, the final elixir production rate is not high, only about 45%.

In order to earn more spiritual stones, you can only work hard on the quality of the elixirs.

Perhaps it was because Xiao Zhen's participation made him feel more at ease, so the quality of the elixir he refined this time was much higher than the previous ones.

After Xiao Shan handed Yun Dan to Xiao Zhen, he couldn't help but feel happy.
