Chapter 72
After receiving the gift from Mr. Fang, Yu Lie immediately wanted to enter the state of retreat and study Dan Fang Dan method.

But in the next period of time, things were complicated. The Danfangzhong was originally hosted by Yu Lie, and the middle-ranked Taoist boys who had eaten plain rice began to invite Yu Lie in turn, asking Yu Lie to be a guest in the other party's mouth.

Yu Lie had just become a top leader, so he couldn't avoid this kind of communication, so he had to go out to socialize, lest others think that after he got close to the head of the Medicine Prescription Hall, he would start to look at no one.

After half a month of communication.

Yu Lie in the alchemy room, it can be said that he has familiarized himself with his appearance in other places.Except for some important places, he doesn't even need to take out the signboard, he can swagger in and out of various openings.

Even the life of the Taoist boys in the poisonous mouth where he is located is much better than usual. Whether it is handing over the medicinal materials or asking for help from the brother's hall, the other party will look at Yu Lie's thin face, with a kind attitude and a good attitude. Some face.

The emergence of this kind of situation not only made the poisonous Taoists happy, but also made Yu Lie feel more docile and obedient to Yu Lie.

Because after he "approached" a hall master, Dukou's situation has improved so much. Doesn't it mean that Du Liang was still in a bad situation in the alchemy room? People waiting to see?

"Violent words are not welcome. It must be that even if Du Liang has something to do with him, it probably doesn't have much to do with him. He is far from being able to make others show his favor."

Yu Lie can rest assured that he no longer has to worry about getting tainted by the powerful person behind Du Liang.

this day.

Yu Lie stood in front of the door of the poisonous mouth, beckoning at one person with a warm smile: "Fellow Daoist Lu, I really troubled you today, and sent someone here again, and really helped me to the poisonous mouth! I will reward you well when you are free." You."

Opposite him was a young Taoist boy, estimated to be about the same age as Yu Lie, and he was the same Taoist boy who was responsible for guiding Yu Lie when he first entered the alchemy room - the roadside.

The reason why this person came to Dukou was nothing else, but he brought a group of nearly ten Taoist boys, who were assigned by Danfang to supplement Dukou.

There were also smiles on the side of the road, and good things were said immediately:

"Where is the matter, Yu Daoyou is being polite. Since you took office, not to mention the entire alchemy room, at least half of the alchemy room, all know that the poisonous mouth has made a terrible move. In less than half a month, the poisonous mouth will be punished." He is well-organized, his business is superb, and there is no delay in handing over tasks. He is obviously a poisonous person, but the people under him seem to be living a life like a prescription, nourishing!"

Jishou on the side of the road returned the gift: "I'm going to send someone to you now. I don't have to give it away. Someone is willing to pay for it. I have to establish a good relationship with you so that you don't accept it."

Yu Lie showed surprise on his face: "Huh! Really?"

People carried people in flowery sedan chairs, and the two stood in front of the opening, and after a few more words of flattery, they just said goodbye.

After sending off the guest, Yu Lie stood in front of the poisonous mouth, reckoned the arrangements for the past few days, and breathed a sigh of relief:

"This person should be the last one. If I have to go out to receive him, he will not be considered negligent."

He guessed, looking at the disappearing back of the road boy, he also had strange eyes.

Over the past few months, his Yu Lie cultivation base has improved, and he was promoted to a middle-rank Taoist boy, and the roadside who was also a low-rank Taoist boy that day was also unobtrusive, wearing a three-pattern Taoist robe, matching With the median waist card, someone can follow you when you travel.

Even Yu Lie looked at the other party's behavior, and the day when he was promoted, perhaps before him, was considered a wonderful person.

"In the huge town of Heishui, I'm not the only one who can improve in cultivation!"

Yu Lie thought about it in his heart, and with a firm mind, he immediately turned around and walked into the poisonous mouth.

On the way, he called the old Hutou and told him that he needed at least half a month of retreat, so that he could make up his own mind first.If you can't take it, be safe first, and make a decision after he leaves the customs.

Having become a middle-ranked Taoist boy and the most vicious person, Yu Lie is now practicing in seclusion, and he no longer needs to find some reasons, or try to make excuses, just say it.

The old Hutou had 1 supportive hearts for Yu Lie's retreat practice, and he immediately grinned and nodded: "Don't worry, boss, I will leave the chores to the servant!"

Hands over to the old beard, Yu Lie completely put aside distracting thoughts, and stepped into the quiet room of the poisonous mouth.

inside the house.

He flipped the switch to seal the heavy stone door, and there was silence in his ears without any noise.

Yu Lie turned around and looked at the black jade altar in the center of the quiet room, with a look of satisfaction in his eyes.

This object is exactly the Dharma altar he arranged. Its whole body is based on Chinese ink jade, cut and piled up. It is half an arm thick and shaped like a gossip. ——"Qing Jing Jing", every word is Zhuji.

There are also banners, bells, porcelain vases, flowers and fragrant fruits, etc., which are placed on the altar without any irregularity. The whole body looks delicate and graceful, full of Taoist demeanor.

Yu Li walked to the edge of the altar, took off his shoes and socks, washed his feet and washed his hands, and stepped on it barefoot.

The jade altar is deep in color, like a deep pool, and its surface is icy cold. A coolness seems to enter Yu Lie's body and mind through his feet, making him feel much calmer.

Yu Lie sat cross-legged on the gold and silver thread futon in the center of the altar, let his mind go blank, and then recalled the prescription of "Fish Belly Peizhu Qiangxue Pill".

Words and pictures popped up in his mind immediately, clearly and clearly.

In the recent half month, Yu Lie was entertaining during the day, but the night was not too wasteful. He was mostly taking the time to think about the altar and set up the altar with his own hands.

Now, not only has the altar been successfully arranged, but he also knows the five alchemy recipes in his hands like the back of his hand, and he only needs to practice alchemy!

After a moment of turmoil, Yu Lie sat cross-legged, and immediately took out the corresponding ingredients for refining medicine from the belly of the blood clam. He also took out the bronze wine glass and put it aside, so that the medicine could be processed at any time.

First, two sides of fine black snake fish eggs were placed on the altar, one of them was dark in color, the grains were like black beans, and the mucus from the belly of the fish remained on the surface.

The other one is smaller in size, the grains are like black sesame seeds, but they are crystal clear, exuding a jade-like luster. At first glance, they are more aura than the fish eggs in the first party.

These two fish eggs are exactly what Yu Lie wants to use as a comparison. The former was not soaked in the bronze wine glass, while the latter was soaked in the bronze wine glass, and the aura was purified a little.

Yubel Peizhu Qiangxue Pill is a pill method that imitates parasitic Gu worms.Although there is no specific reason mentioned in the prescription, there must be a reason for choosing fish eggs as the embryos of the elixir instead of other places.

Yu Lie speculates that it is very likely that the fish eggs are alive. Although they are not fertilized, they are not purely dead.

But the rest of the bronze wine cups can only wash dead things, and cannot swallow living things. He doesn't know if the washing of the wine glasses will destroy the vitality in the fish eggs, so he has to conduct experiments separately!

Fortunately, most of the medicinal materials other than fish eggs don't have to be so troublesome.

A few days ago, he had already concocted several medicinal materials.

And because Yu Lie was refining the Qiangxue pill for his own use, the more refined the medicinal material, the stronger the success rate and efficacy of refining the medicine, so he refined all of them.

And also specially used a booklet titled "Fish Belly Peizhu Qiangxue Pill", which recorded the best time for refining various medicinal materials in secret words, and it is also convenient to record other experiences and lessons.

Yu Lie didn't believe that he would succeed in alchemy for the first time, even if he had an introduction to alchemy as a basis, it was impossible.

Fortunately, Yu Lie also has an extra bit of self-confidence in his heart. In addition to the external conditions such as the bronze wine cup, he has Su Hui. When dealing with alchemy, his ideas are not so subtle, but compared to most Taoist boys , He has his own set of research methods.

Yu Lie is confident that as long as the pill formula is correct and he is given a few more qualified medicinal materials, he will be able to reproduce the pill.

next moment.

Yu Lie bowed slightly and started the formal alchemy practice.

However, unlike many Taoist boys, Yu Lie's first step was to take out a delicate medicine scale from the belly of the blood clam and adjust it carefully.It is different from a small medicine scale that is weighed by hand, but both ends can be tilted, and it is placed on the table and weighed with weights.

Although the shape of this medicine scale, carved with insects and snakes, was rather weird in Yu Lie's eyes, but he still secretly called it "Tianping" in his heart.

This object was not given by Mr. Fang, but Yu Lie went to the Qiyuan to find a scale weighing tool, and bought it back after spending [-] yuan, which was worth two black snake fish.

Fortunately, its effect also amazed Yu Lie, it can even weigh the weight of a strand of hair coiled up!
In addition to medicine scales, Yu Lie also took out a complete set of precision water bowls, which were exquisitely fired by the Warehouse, and the sizes were divided into equal ratios. The price is a bit cheaper, but it is not comparable to ordinary porcelain and pottery.

Taking out the medicinal bowl for grinding, Yu Lie held his breath, put the medicinal materials into the medicinal bowl in strict accordance with the ratio on the prescription, and began to grind them finely.

During the grinding process, he pricked his fingertips from time to time and dripped his own blood into it for concoction.

It took three or four hours for the rest of the preparation of the first batch of medicinal materials. Some of the medicinal materials were wasted on the spot due to unfamiliar movements, and could only be melted into the wine glass.

Of course, in the three or four hours, most of the effort was spent by Yu Lie on record comparison.

After the ointment was prepared, Yu Lie pinched the formula, put the special ointment into the water bowl of the black snake fish eggs, and used a specific method to use his own body temperature to stir fry and mix.

After another careful configuration, he finally finished frying the fish eggs, so that nothing wrong with the fish eggs could be seen from the appearance alone.

Next, Yu Lie was excited, jumped off the altar, and took out a black snake fish from a wooden box in the quiet room.

He weighed the weight of the fish, stripped off the sawdust from the fish, cleaned it, and placed it neatly in the center of the altar.

No need to use a knife, I hooked my fingers, and my fingertips were like razor blades, and gently slashed across the belly of the fish, exposing the internal organs, and took out the freshly prepared fish eggs from the side, and put them into the belly of the black snakefish .

This step may be the most difficult for the rest of the Taoist boys, but for Yu Lie, it is easy to do.

Put the fish eggs into the belly of the black snakefish, Yu Lie did not put them back into the wooden box, but tied the head and gills of the fish with a straw, and hooked them together with the tail to form a bow.

This so-called "bow fish technique" can force open the fish's gills, so that even if it is out of the river, it can still survive for a long time, even longer than being stored in a bucket, and it is also convenient for Yu Lie to apply ointment next time .

He hung the bowed fish on a corner of the edge of the altar, on a banner, and pinched a kind of dense salt in his hand, and spread it evenly on the fish.

After finishing these, the rough refining process is considered complete.

The next "heating" and "progress" depends on Yu Lie's vision and experience. If the fish eggs are placed too short, the Qiangxue Pill will fail to be refined. If the time is too long, the Qiangxue Pill may not be made The bulge bursts open, and a pill will not be made.

Only by choosing the right time, can we refine the Strong Blood Pill as much as possible.

And the more accurate the timing, the more blood pills a black snakefish can breed.

The specific time is related to the temperature, humidity, the size and type of fish, and even the blood mixed in by Taoists, etc., and it is by no means easy to grasp.

Therefore, after Yu Lie hung up a fish, he sat cross-legged in the center of the altar, biting a charcoal pencil, and racked his brains to think about the factors that could affect the success of alchemy...

He went up and down from time to time, and wrote all the factors, big and small, in the booklet, and recorded the situation at this moment, such as the temperature of the quiet room, the size of the fish, the amount of dense salt, the amount of fish eggs, and so on.

Yu Lie's idea is that as long as there is a success, he will use the various conditions of that time as a template, eliminate them one by one, and strictly control the size of the factors, so that it can be reproduced again.

Although there is no specific statement on the pill formula, Yu Lie privately thinks that he can figure out the law of pill formation and the optimal environment for pill formation from it.

Yu Lie raised his head, certain in his heart: "There should be nothing wrong with this line of thinking."

The next moment, he took out a second live fish.

This fish is no longer a black snake fish, but a flat-bodied bream called the small cattail bream. It is also a blind spirit fish, but it is not as common as the black snake fish near Heishui Town.

One after another, fish eggs were concocted, and one after another, live fish were hung around the altar.

But the next day.

Yu Lie frowned, unfolded the refining notes, and recorded the lesson:

"The first tail, black snake fish, bow fish lasted for twelve hours and three quarters and 120 breaths. The skin of the fish was as dry as bark. The medicine was taken by laparotomy, but no pills were found. After careful investigation of the cause of the failure, the fish eggs turned blue, suspected to have impurities and poisons mix in."

"The second one is the small cattail bream. The bow fish lasted twelve hours and three hundred breaths. The scales of the fish turned white, and no pills were found after taking medicine from the laparotomy. The fish eggs turned white, and it was suspected that the incision had caused salt seepage and damaged the eggs."

After summarizing some lessons, Yu Lie started refining medicine again.

On the third day, holding a charcoal pencil in his hand, he continued to write:

"The third tail, black snake fish, failed. The fish eggs have not changed, and it is extremely suspected that the fish eggs cannot be soaked in a wine glass."

"The fourth and fifth fish are fat fish. Make sure that the fish eggs cannot be soaked in the wine glass."

On the fourth day, the notes were added:

"The sixth tail, the seventh tail..."

No. 11 days:
"At the end of No. 18, the temperature has changed drastically today, and the mercury column has increased by five and a half quarters. The medicine was taken by laparotomy, and I saw a strong blood pill, the color is bright red!"

"On the same day, I retested it and got a strong blood pill, the color is red! Daxing!

"Take the medicine and swallow it, it tastes bitter, the qi and blood are violent, it can't be used, it melts into a wine glass. Take the medicine with water, the taste is fishy, ​​the qi and blood are slightly swelled, it is not as good as the prescription said."

Another detailed refinement, No.17:
"The mercury column is 21 quarters and a half, and the humidity is optimal. The medicine is astringent and sweet, just like the prescription says, the blood is surging, like waves!!"

On this day, Yu Lie was slightly happy.

No.19.

In the quiet room this day, Yu Lie's hair grew rapidly and was already long. His hair was disheveled, and his hands were full of fishy smell.

Yu Lie held the pill he had just taken out from the belly of a black snakefish, and wrote carefully:
"No.20 Bawei, Black Snake Fish, successfully reproduced, three and a half pills, all red in color, good in taste...

Great success in refining medicine! "

After writing, the charcoal pen fell down, Yu Lie's eyes were in a trance, his face was startled, and then he showed joy!

　Four thousand five hundred words.
