Chapter 128 Bigu Pill

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh."

Between moments.

Huaying went from rolling all over the floor, to holding her head in her arms, to crying silently, until finally, lying motionless on the ground.

Alchemy is too difficult.

a long time.

Bai Mao lying on the ground finally moved his body, rubbed his face blackened by soot, and got up with a bitter face.

She looked at the firewood ash and Linggu porridge scattered all over her body, and said with a sad face:
"This spirit firewood is too unstable. You have to fix the stove. If you fry the stove a few more times, who can bear it!"

He straightened the crooked cauldron, cleaned the inner wall with water, and then found a few bricks to clamp the three legs of the furnace. After it was completely stable, Huaying lit the firewood again, and continued with the previous steps Come.

This time she had a good memory, and she didn't add too much firewood at one time, but only put a few small pieces of firewood at the bottom of the furnace, so as not to cause the fire to grow hot later, and the previous situation would not happen again.

The so-called alchemy is nothing more than refining various raw materials in the alchemy furnace, removing impurities, retaining the essence, and finally condensing the essence, which is the elixir.

In this step, Danfang played the most critical role.Many main medicines and auxiliary materials included in the prescription are extremely important and indispensable.Moreover, the ratio of various materials also needs to be properly grasped. If a certain raw material is added too much or too little, it may affect the final almond formation rate.

Huaying again followed the instructions in the Bigu Dan Dan recipe, re-equipped a furnace of Bigu Dan raw materials to grind into powder and juice, and put them in one by one after the cauldron was heated up, and carefully stared at it after confirming that the fire was stable. Guard up.

Alchemy is a very time-consuming task. From the official opening of the furnace to the final alchemy, it takes several hours at the shortest and more than a few days at the longest.During this period, the alchemists must be strictly supervised, and they must not be careless at all times. If something goes wrong and the success falls short, then their losses will be great.

Refining the common low-level spirit pills is okay, the raw materials of the spirit pills are not hard to find, if one furnace is useless, at worst it will be refined again, at most it will delay a little time.

But if it is to refine those rare high-level panacea, the raw materials often need to use the top-grade pills of hundred-year-old or thousand-year-old spirit grass. The chances of making pills are slim, and the raw materials are scrapped due to carelessness. No one can afford this kind of loss. .

Therefore, generally speaking, those mature alchemists who have decades of alchemy experience, when they are alchemy, they will equip themselves with several alchemy boys who are responsible for looking after the fire, so as not to be careless and make mistakes.

As for Huaying, it was impossible to invite a few alchemy boys, or in other words, her own level of alchemy was only at the level of alchemy boys.Therefore, she can only take care of the alchemy furnace herself, and she can't walk away at all times without talking, and she can't even be distracted to meditate.

As the lowest-grade elixir, Bigu Pill only needs to be prepared with a few raw materials for refining, so it does not need to be refined for too long.

The firewood under the furnace was burning fiercely, and the sound of scalding and boiling could be faintly heard from the sealed furnace.

Two hours later, Huaying counted the time and felt that it was almost time to open the furnace to congeal the pill, so she stopped the supply of spirit firewood, and continued to warm it with a small fire after the fire at the bottom of the furnace turned from strong to weak. After a period of time, the preparations for condensing the pill were slowly carried out.

"Success!"

Finally, it's time for Dan Cheng.The fire was already extinguished, Huaying rubbed her little hands, opened the lid excitedly, looked inside little by little, looking forward to the arrival of the golden light.

It is said that when the furnace is opened, the more golden light in the furnace, the more it represents the high quality of the panacea.

Impurities are removed, the essence is gathered, and the medicinal liquid is condensed, which is called Dancheng.

Hey!
Vaguely, Huaying seemed to see a ray of light coming, and as the furnace cover slid down, the whole situation inside the furnace came into her eyes.

"Cough cough."

The expected golden light did not appear, but a puff of pungent black smoke billowed out, and the strong burnt smell instantly made Huaying burst into tears and cough continuously.

"This smoke is poisonous"

After several hours of refining, only one furnace of useless pills was produced. No matter how good-natured Huaying was, she would inevitably feel hit. She squatted there and stared blankly at the smoking furnace, and it took a while to regain her composure.

The waste pill is useless, it is a layer of charred black paste, it is poisonous if swallowed, there is no other way but to throw it away.

Lifting her spirits and not being troubled by failure, Huaying picked up the small tripod and knocked it on the ground, getting out a pile of charred impurities and throwing it aside.

Afterwards, she cleaned the cauldron furnace again, prepared the raw materials of Bigu Pill, and prepared to strike while the iron was hot and make it again.

"I didn't fry the stove this time, but it seems that the fire is still too big, so I need to add more firewood."

The reason why the first pot of elixir was refined was useless. After reviewing and summarizing the incident, Huaying came to some conclusions.

She believes that the addition of firewood in the early stage this time caused the fire to be too strong, and most of the medicinal liquid in the furnace had been boiled dry during the refining process.

The fire continued unabated, and the medicinal liquid was probably scalded to coke by the overheated furnace wall before it condensed into a pill shape. By the time the fire weakened, it was already too late, and the medicinal liquid had long been boiled away. It can't be condensed.

Therefore, Huaying decided to refine again this time, and only added the minimum amount of firewood, even if the fire was too weak to condense the pill in the end, as long as the refining was not wasteful.You have to refine something that looks good first, you can't always refine a furnace of waste, right?

She firmly believed that as long as she persevered and practiced a few more times, she would definitely be able to master the most suitable heat.

So, in the next few days, Huaying kept refining the elixir in the jade pendant space.

Turn on the stove, turn off the stove, fry the stove.

so repeatedly.

One stove after another, and one stove after another was scrapped. I was so busy that I didn't rest, I didn't meditate, and I even forgot to feed the chickens.

Finally after three days.

Huaying held a handful of white pills in her hands, knelt on the ground with an excited expression, and said to herself repeatedly with trembling mouth:
"It's done. It's me. I'm done. I'm an alchemist. I've made it. I've made Bigu Dan."

After several days and nights of unremitting efforts, she finally concocted a batch of white pills full of medicinal fragrance, with distinct grains, round and plump.Counting, there are more than a dozen pills, each pill is the size of soybeans, the appearance is very round, just a light sniff, the aroma will come out.

"."

These days, Huaying at least said that there were more than ten or twenty furnaces of Bigu Dan refined, most of which produced only a pile of scrapped black furnace ash, and a small part was semi-finished medicinal powder that had not condensed into a pill shape.

Only today's last furnace successfully produced a pill that is exactly the same as the Bigu pills sold in the market.

The hardships involved, only those who have experienced it personally know a thing or two.

After the excitement, holding the dozen or so bigu pills, Hua Ying twisted one and began to observe carefully.

The more she looked at it, the more she felt that the pill was very beautiful, and she couldn't help swallowing a mouthful of saliva, and swallowed it in one gulp.
