Chapter 165 Fairy Waste 27
Time flies so fast, more than half a year has passed before I know it.
Xi Ning has already refined ten furnaces of elixirs, some of which have a high yield rate and can be passed in one go. No matter how careful some of them are, they still only produce three or four out of ten out of ten in each furnace, sometimes only one or two, and there are a few times when all are lost.
Then it must be refined again until at least five pieces are produced in each furnace to be considered qualified.
Alchemy is also like refining qi. It is made up of stairs. The higher you go, the harder it becomes. At present, only Palace Chief Liu in the Tianshi Palace can refine the best elixirs with purple cloud patterns. There are only one or two in one furnace. His apprentice, Senior Brother Zhao, may have one or two in ten furnaces.
This elixir is worth hundreds of yuan, and the best quality spiritual stone is even worth thousands of yuan.
The elixirs she concocted are generally good for strengthening the body, dispelling diseases, and prolonging life. For monks, it is useless, but for mortals, it is an elixir.
Wuling Mountain has a Taoist temple at the foot of the mountain, which accepts incense and sells some small elixirs like this. The money sold, after deducting the cost of the Taoist temple and the monthly salary of the Taoist workers who watch the fire at night, is divided into 50 and 50 with the alchemist. According to the price, a full spiritual stone is collected for the alchemist.
Xining already had twenty small spiritual stones in his pocket. It is said that these spiritual stones can buy a courtyard with three entrances and exits in the mortal world, or a small shop with a second floor that can open a teahouse or wine shop. No wonder they all want to become immortals, it’s so profitable.
Among the disciples who entered the school at the same time, Xining was considered a self-reliant little rich woman, but she still couldn't afford a storage bag to store things. As for storage belts, bracelets, rings, and other storage instruments with higher value, don't even think about it.
The Suzaku Palace is not jealous of making utensils. Even a small brocade bag needs to be cut and sewn, and then the charms are embroidered on the cloth, so that a small space can be created inside to hold more things.
If you don't have any ingenuity, you can't do it at all. Thinking about the fact that the owner of the body cannot read, and she can crawl like a crab when she picks up a pen to write, there is no way she can even think of drawing the talisman, let alone embroidering the talisman on the brocade bag perfectly.
Han Xuan came to see her less and less often, and he was often not even where he lived. In half a year, Han Xuan made rapid progress. It took others five to ten years to go from the early stage to the middle stage of the Golden Elixir. It only took him half a year.
In the sword arsenal full of good swords, I chose a sword that suits me. Originally, the sword he had been using also had spiritual energy, so he used two of them together, but he didn't expect that this would work.
According to the existing talismans, I used my spiritual energy to draw cinnabar on yellow paper and learned to draw talismans.
The grandson had recovered his spiritual root and had such a high talent. The Han family was naturally overjoyed and sent many good things to Wuling Temple, as well as many auxiliary items to Han Xuan.
Comparing people to each other makes people angry. But there is no way, who calls me the hero, the proud son of heaven.
It’s better to make alchemy properly. Xining went to get a larger alchemy furnace and started to make better elixirs, such as Jie Jie Dan, Qing Yun Dan, and Shennong Jiedu Pills, which are necessary for ordinary monks to detoxify, cure diseases, and heal wounds when they go out. of elixirs.
The yield rate of these elixirs is even lower, and seven or eight out of ten furnaces will be wasted. Seeing the medicinal residues that were refined into black charcoal, powder, or even nothing left, Xi Ning felt very sorry for these medicinal materials. The money for the elixirs sold is divided 50-50 after deducting the cost of the medicinal materials.
So much so that not only was there no money for the first month, but the alchemist's monthly silver of two spiritual stones per month was also included.
Besides refining alchemy, Xi Ning insists on practicing in the spiritual energy pool every day. But in the past six months, there has been no progress. I have been sitting in the same place without moving. Every time I go in, I feel unbearable cold.
Tonight, she had a sudden change of heart and moved to the middle.
After luck, I still couldn't keep out the cold, so I just held on. In order to move as quickly as possible, she moved a little further inside. When Han Xuan happened to go over to practice sword practice and noticed something was wrong with her face, he went into the pond and fished her out.
Her whole body was frozen stiff, her lips were black and her face was almost dead.
Even her internal energy was exhausted and her clothes couldn't be dried. Han Xuan was lucky enough to help her dry her clothes.
"Sneeze~" Xining approached the burning alchemy furnace, but was still shivering from the cold.
"Drink some ginger soup!" Han Xuan went to the small stove to cook a bowl of ginger soup for her.
Senior Brother Zhao, who happened to be looking at the fire, came over and took out a pill: "Take it together, and you will be fine after sweating." Xining took the elixir with the ginger soup, and suddenly a heat came out of his stomach. , and soon my back was wet, but my body felt much better and not so shaky.
Han Xuan said with some blame: "When I saw her, she was not far from the center of the spiritual energy pool, so she didn't freeze to death."
Senior Brother Zhao smiled: "It is better to take your time in the future. If you rush for success, your luck may not be so good every time. Just sleep here tonight. The fire and pure sunshine can dissolve the remaining cold energy in the body. Don't If you are sick and feel cold in Tianshi Palace, you will be laughed at.”
After hearing this, Han Xuan went to get some bedding.
I saw Han Xuan building two floor bunks side by side, although they were two or three meters apart. Xining rolled his eyes: "Why are you sleeping here?"
Han Xuan defended: "It's not that far away, and there are still people there."
The two disciples on the night shift looked at them and continued to cross their legs and look at the fire without saying anything.
Even if monks usually go out and sleep in the wilderness or in the ruins of ruined temples, and they are not taboo about the difference between men and women, this cannot be the case.
Xi Ning persuaded him nicely: "You are now a disciple of Qiankun Palace. If you stay at Tianshi Palace at night, Director Lin will be unhappy."
I come here both during the day and at night. I don’t know which palace’s disciple I am going to be.
Han Xuan lowered his head slightly and sat cross-legged on the floor: "Master asked me to move to the top of the mountain. I will go into seclusion to practice. I may not be able to leave seclusion for half a year."
The thing about cultivation is to rely on resilience. Half a year is considered fast. Some monks spend more than ten years in seclusion in order to break through to the first level.
Looking at Han Xuan, who was already eleven years old and still had a childish face, Xining lay down and said, "Go to rest early. Thank you very much for today."
Han Xuan also lay down, but his face faced her: "Xining, after I retreat, you have to refine more good medicine. The master said that in half a year, I will go to the Immortal Mansion with other disciples to practice."
Xi Ning found it funny: "At that time, Manager Lin and your family will help you prepare high-grade medicine. No matter how hard I work, I can only refine low-grade elixirs in the past six months."
Although Han Xuan's voice was soft, there was still a slight echo in the hall: "The Immortal Mansion is dangerous and there are many monsters and beasts, so there are never too many elixirs. I have a Qiankun bag. I will hold as much as you can give me."
< br>
Xining agreed: "As long as you don't dislike it, I will practice more and bring it to you."
Han Xuan seemed to have a smile on his lips and closed his eyes.
Xining slept until dawn and was woken up by someone. By this time, Han Xuan had already left.
Xining went directly to the warehouse and asked for the smallest alchemy furnace used before.
Senior Brother Zhao, who was supervising the warehouse, was confused: "You still want to refine low-grade elixirs?"
Xining scratched the back of his head: "I keep refining to waste, and all the monthly money was paid in last month. I simply refining the big and small furnaces together, and the medicine produced in the small furnace can be subsidized."
< br>
Senior Brother Zhao thought for a while: "Anyway, the supply of elixirs exceeds the demand. As long as you are not tired, I will give it to you."
