Chapter 119: Refining the Pill

"Brother Xu, has my father told me how many raw materials for Bigu Pill we need to buy this time?"

At the entrance of a spiritual medicine shop in the market, Liang Waner, who accompanied Xu Feng to purchase, asked in a low voice.

Xu Feng, who was in a daze, came to his senses after hearing the question and answered softly:

"Master didn't tell me about this. He just left it up to me. I think I still want fifty copies, right?"

Seeing that he was not in a good mood, Liang Waner persuaded him softly:

"Brother Xu, don't be too anxious. You have only been learning alchemy for half a month, and it is already amazing to be able to condense it.

I believe it won't take long before you can actually refine the finished elixir. "

"Then let me lend you some good advice. Let's go in."

Xu Feng responded with a smile, then took Liang Wan'er's hand and walked into the medicine shop called Baicaotang.

"Two guests, please come in. How can I help you?"

A young monk at the third level of Qi Refining was waiting at the door. When they entered, he immediately saluted and asked.

"Buy some alchemy materials."

The one who spoke out was Liang Wan'er. In the past, she helped buy the spiritual herbs needed for his father to refine the elixir. She can be said to have rich experience in this regard.

When the young man heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up and the smile on his face became wider. He led them directly through the lobby and to the second floor, where they were personally entertained by an elderly deacon from the seventh level of Qi Refining.

"I, Bi Yun, I just heard from Xiao Liangzi that you two are going to buy some elixirs.

I don’t know what kind of elixir is needed? How much is the serving size? I can also ask my clerk to make arrangements for you two. "

The three of them were seated as guests and hosts, and after Butler Bi ordered the waiter to serve tea to the two of them, he asked enthusiastically.

"A total of fifty copies of the raw materials for Bigu Pill are needed. I'd like to thank the deacon for your trouble."

"It's easy to talk about. I'll arrange for the guys to prepare for you two."

After Xu Feng finished speaking, he kept staring at the other person's face.

I found that the other party's expression did not change at all, and he was still cheerful when he heard that even the raw materials of Bigu Pill were the cheapest.

This shows that the other party is not too snobbish and can cooperate again if there is a chance in the future.

"Wait a minute, Deacon Bi, we haven't negotiated the price yet? It's not too late to let the guys prepare it after we finish the negotiation."

"What does this fellow Taoist mean by price?"

Deacon Bi was not annoyed at being stopped. He still looked at Liang Wan'er with a smile, and then asked.

"A portion of the raw materials for the Bigu Pill was originally five spiritual stones per portion, but the quantity we need is large, and I hope the deacon can give us a discount. How about four and a half spiritual stones per portion?"

"Fellow Taoist, it seems that you are a knowledgeable person when you bargain like this.

If it were normal times, it wouldn't be a big deal to offer half a piece of spiritual stone, and I could make the decision myself.

But it’s no longer possible. The price of perilla rice has risen too much.

If we sell you four and a half spiritual stones, our shop will basically have no profit. "

Seeing the embarrassment on the deacon's face, which didn't look like he was faking it, the two of them became interested and began to inquire about the reason.

“In fact, you will know about this matter in a few days, but our owner’s identity is unusual and he knew it in advance through special channels.

Our Tianyunfang City has strange mountains and a relatively hot climate, which is not suitable for growing perilla rice. We mainly rely on imports from other places.

The Tiangang sect had been in charge of importing goods before. They came back every half month and there had been no mistakes.

But unexpectedly, a month ago, the Tiangang Sect's transportation team did not arrive on time. The Tiangang Sect sent people to investigate, but no clues were found.

It wasn't until yesterday that the transport team was attacked again, and the Tiangang faction sent a foundation-building expert to investigate all the way, and it was confirmed that they had been attacked by demonic cultivators and the entire army was wiped out. "

When he said this, Deacon Bi had a worried look on his face.

After hearing this, Xu Feng and Liang Wan'er were no longer interested in arguing over half a piece of spiritual stone. They paid two hundred and fifty spiritual stones and left in a hurry with the raw materials for alchemy.

Walking on the street, looking at the still noisy scene, Xu Feng sighed softly:

“I don’t know how long this prosperity can last?”

"Yeah, it's getting more and more chaotic. First, the Demon Cult ambushed the monks who joined the demon hunting team, and now they've attacked the transport team of the Tiangang Sect. I really don't know what will happen in the future!"

The two of them returned to the small courtyard with deep thoughts. Liang Waner continued to practice, while Xu Feng continued to refine alchemy.

First, he took out ten portions of the alchemy materials he had just purchased and put them aside, then lit the spiritual charcoal to preheat the alchemy furnace, and then used his experience to control the size of the firepower.

While doing this, Xu Feng held his breath and concentrated, not even daring to make a sound for fear of affecting the fire.

When the temperature was about the same, he opened the alchemy furnace, put the white jade ginseng inside, and then closed the furnace lid.

He started to control the alchemy furnace and the firepower with his hand seals, so that the elixir in the alchemy furnace turned into liquid essence under the high temperature quenching, and the impurities inside were constantly removed.

This is the most difficult step in the elixir refining process. Only when the impurities are removed thoroughly can the medicinal liquid be condensed into an elixir. Otherwise, what you will end up with is a ball of gray medicinal dregs.

Then Xu Feng put in the perilla rice and Huang Jing one after another, and then repeated the previous actions.

In the past half month, Xu Feng has basically been able to complete this step perfectly because of his strong spiritual consciousness, and there were no mistakes this time.

As all the spiritual medicines turned into juice essence, the three will fuse together. This is the last step of alchemy, and you must be especially careful.

It is not good to fuse too fast or too slowly, and the timing of fusion must be accurately grasped. If you are not careful, all the previous efforts will be wasted and the alchemy will fail.

He had failed at this step before.

Xu Feng controlled the temperature and carefully controlled the three groups of medicine liquid rotating at high speed in the alchemy furnace to slowly approach each other, and then began to fuse and condense.

As the three groups of medicine liquid slowly condensed into one group, there was no distinction between you and me. Xu Feng stared at the alchemy furnace, then pinched the alchemy formula with his hand and shouted softly:

"Condensate!"

A scent of alchemy came from the alchemy furnace. Xu Feng couldn't suppress his inner joy, so he opened the lid of the furnace, took a deep breath, and looked into the furnace.

I saw two light brown bigu pills lying quietly at the bottom of the furnace, with a lot of residue around them. The two pills were not round and covered with lines, which could only be regarded as defective products.

Although it was just this, Xu Feng was still ecstatic in his heart. He finally made his own pills.

Xu Feng gently took out the two memorable pills from the pill furnace, put them in his palm and looked at them for a long time, then found a jade bottle to put them in.
