Standing together through thick and thin

Chapter 174

"Could it be that person who just made it again?" Shao Qiu had seen a lot of pills just now, but now the shadows of the herbs were nowhere to be seen.

"To buy so many pills, how many people do you need?" Shao Qiu sighed.

"It has nothing to do with us, why are you talking to him?" Li Xiuye ​​didn't like Shaoqiu always talking about this stranger, so naturally he was even more unhappy.

Shao Qiu didn't talk about that person anymore, and continued to walk forward. He was dazzled by the dazzling array of treasures around him. He bought a few. Some of the treasures he didn't have could not be exchanged, so he had to give up and walk. Shao Qiu came to a booth. , with three prescriptions on it.

Shaoqiu's eyes lit up, and he immediately stepped forward and asked, "How do you change these three prescriptions?"

The front of the stall was very deserted, and there were almost no people there. There were three pill recipes. The owner of the stall was a white-haired old man in his 70s or [-]s.

He half-closed his eyes and looked at Shao Qiu slowly and indifferently.

"As long as you can refine the elixir according to the elixir formula, the elixir formula will be rubbed for you for free."

"Huh?" Shao Qiu looked at the old man in shock, "Is this true?"

If this is the case, this pill formula is too cheap.

No, maybe there is something wrong with this recipe?

Perhaps there is no pill formula that can be refined at all.

"Believe it or not." The old man didn't seem to want to explain.

Shao Qiu didn't know the usefulness of the pill formula, but he nodded in agreement because of the rare opportunity.

There was no expression on the old man's face, as if he was used to it. Anyone who knew a little about alchemy felt that he could refine such a pill. Facing those who came with the attitude of giving it a try, no matter how well he refined it , the old man also behaved calmly and calmly.

When Shao Qiu agreed to him, the old man took Shao Qiu and Li Xiuye ​​to the teahouse not far behind him.

A private room in the tea house is very spacious inside and in a good location.

The old man asked Shao Qiu a few questions, knowing that he had nothing, he was just learning alchemy, and he didn't have his own pill fire, so he took out a pill furnace, pill fire, and the ingredients for refining pills.

"There are three copies of each Danfang material. You have three chances. If you fail three times, the Danfang won't print it for you."

Shaoqiu nodded, took the pill formula given to him by the old man and looked at it.

The three pills are Dihun Pill, Wangchen Pill, and Yiqi Pill.

There is only one kind of pill that Shao Qiu has seen, and that is Huiyuan Pill.

He may or may not have heard of the other elixirs, but he definitely didn't know about them. Therefore, after seeing the elixirs given to him by the old man, he didn't feel anything wrong with the types or quantities of ingredients needed.

Seeing Shaoqiu's calm expression, the old man narrowed his eyes even more, and finally said nothing.

Shao Qiu studied the three alchemy recipes, and none of the three alchemy recipes seemed particularly difficult.

Shao Qiu didn't think there was anything strange.

The pill fire given by the old man is an ordinary earth-level pill fire, which can be manipulated at will as long as the mental power is sufficient. Shaoqiu is not so worried about controlling the pill fire. Accurate aspects are still quite trustworthy.

As for the collocation order of the materials, it is written in Dan Fang.

Seeing that the old man had been watching from the side, Shao Qiu didn't hide anything.

He received a special punishment for handling materials. Shao Qiu asked the old man, "Can I take out the writing tools myself as a spare?"

The old man looked at Shao Qiu and nodded, "Yes."

Shao Qiu took out his own tools. Seeing those strangely shaped tools, the old man frowned, unable to understand what they were, moreover, these tools could be connected together.

There is also a place on it that seems to be able to sense Yuanli.

But since he had been allowed to make alchemy, the old man didn't ask any more questions, just let him see what he could come up with.

Shao Qiu started with the simplest one, Yiqi Pill.

Yiqi Pill is a pill that can quickly increase the energy in the body during cultivation. It means that after eating Yiqi Pill, the speed of cultivation will be accelerated, which will be three times the speed of previous cultivation.

However, if you take too much of this kind of pill, you will be immune, so if you use too much Yiqi pill, it will become tasteless, but there are still many people who like Yiqi pill, especially those with poor qualifications. It can only stay at the warrior level, but with Yiqi Pill, you may be able to advance to generals and martial kings.

Regarding the impact of pills on the future, cultivators with poor aptitude would rather take Yiqi pills to advance to the next stage than stay in the warrior stage for the rest of their lives.

The Yiqi Pill is suitable for martial arts below the Martial King. Once promoted to the Martial King, the effect of the Yiqi Pill is basically gone, and a higher level of pill is needed.

The ingredients of this Yiqi Pill are all common, and Shaoqiu didn't know or have any doubts, so he didn't have to study the properties and characteristics of those unknown herbs.

Every time you refine a elixir or potion, you must figure out the medicinal properties and characteristics of the herbal medicine, otherwise, if there is a mistake in any link, the success will be in vain!

Shao Qiu processed the non-heatable materials first, because he knew that some substances would evaporate immediately once they were set on fire, so Shao Qiu first used his own tools to extract the essence to prevent and preserve them.

This step is very important, and he needs to use his strong mental power to separate the essence of the plant one by one.

After the three ingredients of the Yiqi Pill were processed, Shao Qiu was already sweating profusely and took out a top-grade Huiyuan Pill to eat, and Shao Qiu's fatigue was greatly reduced.

So, he began to refine Qi Yi Pill.

Controlling the pill fire to burn in the cauldron.

The old man saw every step of Shaoqiu clearly, carefully, and suddenly found that this young man's control over soul force and elemental force had reached a state of perfection, with no deviation at all. .

He has been using his soul to scan the young man's alchemy process, so he can naturally feel his precise and error-free control.

It's really hard to imagine that he, a person who started refining alchemy, could do this to such a degree. He can't give way to those so-called masters. The old man wondered if Shao Qiu was lying to him by saying that he just started refining alchemy?

However, his reaction to these prescriptions told him no.

If it is really a person who often refines elixirs, how can he not know the problems of these elixirs?

The old man didn't continue to think, but watched the young man start refining the elixir.

Compared with other people's refining elixir, the boy's refining elixir has a unique charm, just like dancing, but it is not dancing, but contains a mysterious and elegant temperament .

The old man nodded and looked at the young man: The shape is there, but I don't know if it can be refined into a shaped pill.

Shao Qiu was refining the elixir, and when it was about to take shape, he put away the elixir fire and stopped heating it.

The old man looked a little sluggishly, but it hasn't taken shape yet?Why just turn off the fire?

It is true that the fire is turned off, and the pill that is about to form becomes a liquid medicine and cannot be formed.

The medicinal liquid was lying quietly in the alchemy furnace. After cooling down, Shao Qiu added the medicinal liquid that had been extracted before, poured down the medicinal liquid that could not be heated, and fused it with the medicinal liquid in the alchemy furnace.

Afterwards, refine a herbal medicine into a film, and then wrap the medicinal liquid together with the medicinal film. The medicinal film wraps an unknown number of layers until the medicinal liquid the size of a thumb is wrapped into the size of a fist. Come out and burn.

The membranes covering the liquid medicine began to swell, and then it seemed that something was about to break through the membranes and fly out. After that, the membranes were destroyed layer by layer uncontrollably, but the speed of the impact became smaller and smaller. In the end, the swelling became smaller and smaller, as if the medicine had been squeezed flat.

But in fact, the medicinal liquid has become a pill, wrapped in layers of membranes.

At this final stage, Shao Qiu withdrew the elixir fire and asked Li Xiuye ​​to cast an ice spell, and the elixir cooled down.

Layers of brittle coatings that couldn't be any more brittle were knocked lightly and immediately shattered.

A crystal-clear milky white elixir exudes bursts of pure vitality, forming a white mist that surrounds the Yiqi Pill.

The old man looked shocked, even unbelievable.

"Unexpectedly, can it really be refined into a pill?"

He checked the pill carefully, and it was exactly the kind of pill he wanted. He took a deep breath, and suddenly smiled kindly, "Young man, what's your name?"

"Shaoqiu."

"Shaoqiu? Yes, very good! These three prescriptions are all yours."

Shao Qiu was taken aback, and looked at the old man puzzled, "But, aren't there still two kinds that haven't been refined yet?"

"You consumed too much soul power today, so it's not suitable to refine it again. Since you have already refined one kind of elixir, it doesn't matter whether you can refine other elixirs. I also know the answer."

Shaoqiu couldn't understand what the old man said.

Soon, the old man took out three pill recipes from the interspatial ring, "These three pill recipes, together with the third-grade cauldron and pill fire, are my presents to the young man, please keep them."

Feeling flattered, Shao Qiu took the other three prescriptions from the old man, and was about to thank him, but when he looked up, the old man had disappeared.

"Where are people?" Shao Qiu asked.

Li Xiuye ​​shook his head, "This place is full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers. Look at a stall operator, he is very capable!"

It was a pity that Shao Qiu didn't thank the old man properly, but the gift the old man gave him was exactly what he needed most now.

He couldn't wait to open the other three pill recipes.

Dihun Pill, Wangchen Pill, Yiqi Pill.

Shao Qiu was taken aback, "Why is it the same pill? No, it's different..."

Shao Qiu compared the two same Yiqi Pills, and found that the medicine ingredients given by the old man later were more perfect and more, but the steps were very complicated, while the medicine medicine given at the beginning was much simpler, with almost no Herbs.

Shaoqiu refined only one Yiqi Pill according to the later Yiqi Dan recipe, but found that the quality was not as good as the first pill recipe, or in other words, the pill refined from the first pill recipe was a top-grade Yiqi pill, As for the later pills, it is not only troublesome to refine, but there are many steps, and the quality is also much lower. The same refinement of Yiqi pills is inferior, and it is more laborious and wastes more time.

Shao Qiu had a feeling that the pill formula in the back was the popular pill formula in the market.

The alchemy that the old man asked him to refine, I am afraid it is not known whether it can be successfully refined.

So is he sitting there looking for an alchemist who can refine the alchemy formula or is there any other purpose?

Shao Qiu couldn't figure it out, so he stopped thinking about it.

"Why, is there a problem with Dan Fang?" Li Xiuye ​​looked at Shao Qiu and asked.

Li Xiuye ​​didn't know how to make medicine, nor did he know how to make alchemy. He watched Shaoqiu make the elixir and thought it looked good, so he just stood by the side and didn't make a sound.

"It's not that there is a problem, but the alchemy he made for me may be made by an alchemist, but he couldn't make it out, but I don't know why he took it out for others to make it? Now I have made it successfully He probably felt that this chapter of Dan Fang was true, so he left. As for the other two, I also looked at them. They are all about the same, either there are a few more unknown herbs, or there are more herbs that can counteract each other. Just now When I refined the Yiqi Pill, the Yiqi Pill also had an additional herb with volatile medicinal properties." Shao Qiu looked at the pill formula in his hand, feeling a little helpless, "I don't know, what exactly does he want to do?"

"You can do whatever you want? I can't see his background, since he gave it to you for free, then take it! We don't believe in the pie in the sky, but who doesn't pick up the pie?"

"You, what the hell is this metaphor?" Shao Qiu glanced at Li Xiu.

I didn't expect to come out and have such an opportunity. It is impossible to say that Shaoqiu is not excited.

But just like what Li Xiuye ​​said, how can there be such a thing as a pie in the sky?

But the alchemy formula, the alchemy furnace, and the alchemy fire have already been obtained, so is he really going to spit it out?

Even if he wanted to spit it out, he couldn't spit it out now, that person had already left.

"I refined a elixir and got so many treasures, this trip is still worth it!" Shao Qiu said with a smile.

Li Xiuye ​​nodded and said, "That's right."
