Chapter 140 Mystery
Zhao Yu did not expect that Zhao Ji wanted to learn alchemy, but this was not a bad thing.
It seems that because the demand for pill pills is increasing, Zhao Yu spends more and more time refining pills.
However, for Zhao Yu now, he has no interest in refining pills suitable for mortals such as Jingyuan Pill, Yangyuan Pill or Bone Forging Pill. Not only is there no interest, it is also useless. The earlier refining of these elixirs was to lay the foundation for refining high-quality elixirs suitable for monks in the future, but this foundation was already solid enough.
Now making alchemy is like an alchemy machine.
How shameful is it that a dignified monk has become an elixir refining machine for refining inferior elixirs?
Originally, Zhao Yu planned to wait until the talents for alchemy were trained, that is, Hua Tuo, who was sent to another hospital by Cao Mengde last month, and more than a dozen other famous doctors learned the art of alchemy, and then just let it go. But now that Zhao Ji and Da Qiao want to learn, Zhao Yu is happy to teach them.
At any rate, Zhao Yu no longer had to endure boredom to refine the pills needed by the other hospital in the future.
Zhao Yu already fully understood the method of refining pills without entering Pindanwan, and there was no secret at all. If there are enough materials, Zhao Yu can now start refining high-quality pills, which are pills suitable for monks to take to increase their magic power or to weaken their body.
However, it is a pity that even with the Chaos Bead Small World, Zhao Yu is still struggling to study high-grade elixirs.
To develop any kind of elixir, it is necessary to have an extremely deep and comprehensive foundation of medicinal properties of relevant grades of medicinal materials. Although several elixir-level medicinal materials have been cultivated in the small world of the Chaos Bead, they are not enough. For example, if a person wants to cultivate immortality and become a monk from the ordinary world, he needs the same talent. For a medicinal material to become a panacea, it must also have corresponding potential.
It is incredible enough to be able to cultivate several elixirs from common medicinal materials.
More often than not, as Zhao Ji said before, there is a hint of medicinal properties of a panacea, but it is still not a panacea. No matter how much you evolve, there is a limit, and you will always be under the magical medicine.
It does not mean that ginseng has been cultivated for 10,000 years and becomes 10,000-year-old ginseng, which means it is a panacea. That's impossible. The medicinal properties it contains are limited, and the quality of the medicinal properties is only at the ordinary level.
The scarcity of elixirs made Zhao Yu unable to do anything even if he had some true and false experiences in Tian Yanjing's illusion for reference. If there are more than ten kinds, you can give it a try. But just two or three kinds are not enough.
Therefore, the research on high-grade elixirs was temporarily suppressed.
"The basic art of alchemy, at least in the ordinary stage, lies in the combination of medicinal properties."
Zhao Yu asked for advice and spoke eloquently: "In ancient times, Shen Nong tasted a hundred herbs, which was a process of understanding the medicinal properties of the medicine. After knowing the medicinal properties of the medicine, he then experimented with the combination method to find the most reasonable way to maximize the medicinal properties. .”
The two women were extremely serious and kept every word in their hearts.
Zhao Yu said: "But to refine the elixir, knowing its properties is the foundation. The refining process is equally important. How many medicinal materials should be matched with which medicinal materials, who has more and who has less, the ratio of cold and heat, the control of heat, and the timing of everything. It can stump people." "For example, when I refine the Jing Yuan Dan, I need to refine thirty-three pills in one furnace. I need various medicinal materials. What medicinal materials should be put in first? How many breaths of refining does this medicinal material need to be put in? Two kinds of medicinal materials. Whether the heat is civilized or martial, when to switch, etc."
Zhao Ji and Da Qiao looked embarrassed after hearing this.
Zhao Yu laughed: "But it's not difficult for you."
Da Qiao blinked: "Husband, do you have any ideas?"
"certainly."
Zhao Yu smiled and pointed his fingertips, and there were bright lights, clearly two thoughts in his soul. It contains all the knowledge of basic alchemy. The reason why the Immortal Family is an Immortal Family is naturally different from ordinary people. If a mortal wants to become a person who is proficient in alchemy, he may not be able to achieve success after decades of study. But here in Zhao Yu, it's much simpler. All knowledge can be taught in an instant.
The two women are his inner sanctum, so naturally they are not the same as other people.
Even when teaching his disciples, Zhao Yu only guided him with the sound of Taoism. But in Zhao Ji and the others, they don't use it at all.
Two thoughts of divine souls entered from between the eyebrows of the two women, and Zhao Yu immediately spoke: "These two thoughts containing the knowledge of alchemy will not be dissipated automatically, because the amount of knowledge contained in them is very large. If they are dissipated in an instant and impact the souls, It’s unbearable. So I put a seal on it, and when you delve into alchemy, this knowledge will be gradually released bit by bit.”
"My husband just said it was so difficult, I almost scared me away." Zhao Ji snorted softly: "Is this a surprise?"
Zhao Yu smiled and said: "I just want to let you know how difficult it is to make alchemy."
Then he said: "When you learn how to make alchemy, I will be free."
The two women laughed out loud.
In the following days, Zhao Yu spent a lot of time instructing Zhao Ji and Da Qiao on alchemy.
And because of this, Hua Tuo and other doctors took advantage of it.
When they came to the other courtyard, except for the first time, when Zhao Yu briefly explained the knowledge of alchemy, at other times they studied on their own by borrowing files. And because of Zhao Yu's identity, he hesitated to ask for advice. Therefore, it has been more than a month now. Except for Hua Tuo and a few others who have some experience, others are still exploring the basics.
To be honest, Hua Tuo and others were excited to be able to go to another academy to learn alchemy. Why?
Because the alchemy files of other hospitals recorded the exact medicinal properties of many medicines. You know, in this era, many drugs have not yet been used in medicine. Because I don’t know, or the properties of the medicine are not yet clear.
But the dossier on alchemy is an encyclopedia.
Zhao Yu tried all the medicines, knew all their medicinal properties, and recorded them one by one. It can be said that the alchemy dossier is to Chinese medicine what the Tao Te Ching is to Taoism. Its importance is self-evident.
Even if you can't learn alchemy, this volume of basic medicinal knowledge is enough for any doctor to become a famous doctor.
However, compared to this, alchemy is undoubtedly more profound and magical.
A doctor who doesn't want to learn alchemy is not a good doctor, and it makes the same sense here.
But self-study is difficult after all. Now, while Zhao Yu was giving instructions to Zhao Ji and Da Qiao, they watched and learned a lot.
Hua Tuo, a famous doctor whose reputation has been passed down through the ages, actually made the first Yuan Yang Dan in a few days. Although only a few good elixirs are produced in one furnace, success is success.
The name of the miracle doctor is indeed well-deserved.
This also aroused the competitiveness of Zhao Ji and Da Qiao. As Zhao Yu's inner chamber, they could directly receive knowledge from their souls, but they were no better than a self-taught one. Although Zhao Ji and Da Qiao have gentle and peaceful temperaments, it does not mean that they have no desire to win.
