Chapter 5: First Refining Medicine
Looking at the medicine cauldron, Lin Feng nodded with satisfaction.
Although the medicine cauldron obtained from Liu Xi is only the lowest two-mouth medicine cauldron.
But for a novice like him, it is the most suitable.
Taking a deep breath, Lin Feng picked up the alchemist's introductory book he got from Liu Xi and looked at the techniques for using the medicine cauldron recorded on it again.
Then, according to what was said above, place your hand on the flame of the medicine cauldron, and circulate your fighting energy to reach the palm of your hand.
As soon as the fighting spirit reached the palm of his hand, the medicine cauldron instantly issued a suction force, sucking the fighting spirit in Lin Feng's palm into it through the fire port.
"Pfft"
With a muffled sound, the vindictive air flow was suddenly transformed into a red flame after passing through the fire mouth.
In the medicine cauldron, it is constantly churning and burning.
The palm suddenly spurted fire, which startled Lin Feng and almost caused him to withdraw his hand reflexively.
But fortunately, he remembered what the book taught and suppressed his panic.
Looking at the flames churning inside the medicine cauldron, he closed his eyes and slowly calmed down.
The powerful soul perception constantly scans the shallow wood power back and forth in the body.
Nearly ten minutes later, Lin Feng finally found the slightest trace of wood power in his body.
Stretch out a finger and tap on the other fire port.
A very thin stream of green air was slowly poured in.
As soon as the green air flow entered the medicine cauldron, the red flame inside suddenly became quiet as if a chemical reaction had occurred.
At this time, even Lin Feng has not yet controlled the flames.
It can also be noticed that the violent factor in the flame has been neutralized by the power of wood.
And because of the principle of wood making fire.
The flame at this time is obviously more durable and controllable than before.
The palm of his hand left the medicine cauldron, and he picked up a volume of prescriptions called "Huichun Powder" and started reading it again.
Huichun Powder is an unpopular prescription. It can be sprinkled on wounds to stop bleeding and prevent infection. However, it can only be used for external injuries. The required materials are: blue blue flower, Huanchun grass, and Baobaovine.
As for the medicinal materials needed for refining the medicine, he has spent 20,000 gold coins to buy one hundred copies at Miter Auction House, which is enough for his practice.
After reading it, I lit the fire again and flicked my fingers on the ring.
A glimmer of light flashed, and a green medicinal plant appeared in Lin Feng's hand, and then he threw it into the medicine cauldron.
As soon as the green flowers entered the medicine cauldron, before Lin Feng had time to control it, the flames flew up.
In an instant, it turned into a handful of pitch-black ashes, and was finally driven out of the cauldron by the special settings in the medicine cauldron.
“Uh”
Lin Feng looked at the black ash inside the medicine cauldron, scratched his head in embarrassment, picked up a green flower again and threw it in.
This time, the blue and blue flowers persisted in the flames for a while longer, but still turned into pitch black ashes.
“The temperature seems to be a bit high”
After going back and forth more than a dozen times, Lin Feng carefully controlled the flame, and his soul perception firmly compressed the temperature of the flame.
My eyes were peering through the ice mirror, staring at the green flower suspended above the flames.
After tumbling in the medicine cauldron for a while, the blue and blue flowers gradually began to shed their outer skin.
The juice contained in the grass leaves is gradually smoked and roasted into green powder.
After a while, Lin Feng got a portion of cyan powder with scattered black spots.
Looking at the finished product in his hands, Lin Feng had a smile on his face.
Although the temperature control this time was still somewhat lacking, it was considered a success.
An hour later, Lin Feng looked at the more than 20 pieces of powder refined from blue and white flowers beside him, and nodded with satisfaction.
He then picked up a piece of rejuvenation grass, threw it into the medicine cauldron, and began to refine it.
After extracting more than 20 parts, we began to refine the Hundred Treasure Vine.
After the Baibao Teng was refined into 20 parts, Lin Feng's face turned slightly pale. He could no longer hold on, stopped refining the medicine, and collapsed on the ground.
Although his skill is at the intermediate level of Xuan level, controlling two medicinal cauldrons for nearly four hours is already his limit.
“It seems that refining medicine is not an easy job!”
Lin Feng sighed as he felt that the fighting spirit in his body was almost exhausted.
Quickly sit cross-legged next to the medicine cauldron, run the exercises, and start practicing.
Cultivation at this time has the best effect.
After practicing with his eyes closed for a period of time, the whirlpool in Lin Feng's body that had become dim due to exhaustion of fighting energy once again emitted a bright luster.
And this time, the halo seemed a little brighter than a few hours ago.
Slowly opening his eyes, the numb and numb feeling throughout his body has mostly dissipated.
He twisted his neck, and the sound of bones colliding made Lin Feng let out a sigh of relief.
Then we started to work on the most difficult and critical step of refining medicine, medicine fusion!
The reason why it is the most difficult is because each medicinal material requires different amounts of firepower.
Fusion medicine requires multiple medicinal materials to be put in at one time, and the firepower of each medicinal material needs to be accurately controlled.
Take a deep breath, skillfully light a fire, and throw the juice of the Baibao Vine into the medicine cauldron.
A few minutes later, he picked up the rejuvenation grass essence on the side again and threw it in.
After the two are combined, quickly throw in the blue and white powder.
Lin Feng stared at the medicine cauldron, began to merge with the white liquid of Qingdi, and controlled the flame to start to heat up.
"Bang!"
Seeing that the fusion was about to succeed, Lin Feng accidentally raised the temperature of the flame a little higher, and the medicinal materials inside instantly turned into black ash.
Exhale a breath of turbid air and put in the ingredients again. Fusion begins.
“Bang!”
The heat is too high, failure.
Put in the materials again.
….
After several consecutive failures, Lin Feng felt that he had almost found the right level.
The materials were put in again, and in an instant, the raging flames once again enveloped the various materials and began to fuse.
When the last ray of blue-gray color was successfully integrated, Lin Feng immediately reduced the gunpowder.
When the time was right, he waved his hand fiercely, and a ball of green liquid fell accurately into the jade bottle that had been prepared.
"Hey, from now on, I can be regarded as an alchemist."
Looking at the liquid in the jade bottle, Lin Feng suddenly felt a surge of pride in his heart.
Although it was mixed with a little mottled color because it was too hasty to stop the fire.
But no matter what, this is already a bottle of medicinal liquid that can be sold normally.
“Boom.”
Lin Feng pushed open the stone door of the alchemy room and glanced at the date table updated every day by the Alchemist Guild on the opposite wall.
“It turns out that seven days have passed.”
Lin Feng scratched his hair, which had not been washed for a week and was a little messy.
He had been frantically refining medicine these past few days, but he didn't expect that seven days had already passed.
Back at the inn, I extended my room for another month at the front desk.
Go to the room, wash up, wear the medal of your alchemist apprentice, and then go to the trading market of the Alchemist Guild.
Go there to buy medicinal materials. Not only are they rich in variety, but they are also safer than other places.
After all, anyone who can set up a stall there must be extremely rich.
Unless you have something very rare on you, who would have the time to be a robber?
Entering the Alchemist Guild, Lin Feng walked straight to the east area, which was the trading area specially designated by the guild.
Coming to the trading area, the vendors here are completely different from those outside.
Not only did not shout loudly to attract customers, but they sat leisurely on soft chairs, and some even started to make tea.
If someone asks about the price, I will stand up and talk to them.
Transactions worth hundreds of thousands are often made within a few simple conversations.
After searching in the market for a while, Lin Feng came to a stall that looked rich in medicinal materials and asked the 60-year-old stall owner: "Senior, I want thirty portions of the medicinal materials for the Hemostatic Pill. Do you have any?"
"Haha."
The old man touched his goatee and said with a smile: "It's just the ingredients for a first-class elixir. If you add this much, you still have it. !”
“What’s the price of thirty copies?” Hearing the old man’s affirmative tone, Lin Feng asked again.
“Fifty thousand gold coins, or an elixir of equal value.”
“Senior, this is a second-grade peak elixir, Qi Restoration Pill, which should be enough.”< br>
Hearing this, Lin Feng touched the ring, took out a wooden box and handed it over.
The old man took the wooden box, opened it, and nodded slightly: "Yes, it is indeed the Qi Recovery Pill. Take it."
As he said that, the old man also touched the ring. , the originally empty stall was instantly filled with various medicinal materials.
Lin Feng glanced over it and found nothing wrong.
He put it into the Najie, then cupped his hands towards the old man and said: "Now that the deal is completed, I will retire."
After that, he went to the refining medicine he rented Go to the room.
"Huh, thanks to Liu Xi's rich collection, otherwise I may not be able to buy these thirty medicinal materials by refining the rejuvenation liquid for a month."
Back to the alchemy room, Placing the medicinal materials beside him, Lin Feng couldn't help but thank Liu Xi again.
If this first-grade alchemist hadn't brought him so many things, I'm afraid he would still be worrying about the technique.
After adjusting his condition, Lin Feng immediately released the medicine cauldron. Today, he will try to refine a serious first-grade elixir.
Although he has been able to refine some medicinal liquids, he can only be considered a first-grade alchemist if he can refine elixirs in the shape of pills.
Lighting a fire skillfully, with a wave of his hand, a blood clotting grass next to him was thrown into the medicine cauldron.
“Is this a hemostatic pill? The prescription describes it as blood red, right? This pill seems to have too strong erysipelas. Can it be considered a success?”
Lin Feng looked at the dark red pill in his hand and thought with some uncertainty.
Then he shook his head and finally understood why it was said that only by practicing elixir can one be considered a first-grade alchemist.
Originally, he thought that if he could refine the liquid medicine, it would not be too difficult to refine the elixir.
As a result, I worked hard for a long time and used thirty portions of medicinal materials to come up with this thing.
Thinking of those medicinal materials, Lin Feng could not help but feel a flash of distress in his eyes.
He only got a total of three rejuvenation pills from Liu Xina's ring.
And in this half-day effort, one of the medicinal materials exchanged has been wasted.
Lin Feng secretly thought in his heart: "Should I become a disciple of an alchemist?"
Soon, Lin Feng put an end to this idea.
If he wants to become a teacher now, and there are no special circumstances, he can only stay with this teacher and study until he becomes a teacher.
This is nothing to ordinary people, but to Lin Feng, it is a disaster.
After all, by that time, many of the adventures he knew had already been taken away by Xiao Yan.
Besides, he plans to go to Canaan College in two years. If he becomes a teacher, then wouldn’t it be a slap in the teacher’s face if he went to the college to study again?
