Immortal Formula

   Chapter 291 The troubles of the girl Zitong

Yuban stopped abruptly when he wrote this, Gu Yan frowned, it seems that Bixia Zong has a lot of ancient alchemy recipes, it is not a lie, the alchemy concept mentioned above is also mentioned to her by Rong Lao In the same line, but what does the "leave" mentioned above mean, did he succeed in transforming into a god, or did he enter extinction, or was he killed by a catastrophe? Why did this Pill Stove, which he made with his own hands, be lost outside the Bixia Sect? It seems that this Bixia ancestor has left a lot of confusion for future generations.

Looking at what he wrote on the jade plate, the alchemy sect at that time was not in the same position as it is now, but now it is listed in the forest of the nine major sects in Cangwu, presumably the domineering concept of alchemy has created a lot for them. It is a master, but this will inevitably leave hidden dangers in the later development of the sect. It seems that it is really difficult to tell what is right and wrong for thousands of years.

After reading these historical grievances and grievances, Gu Yan carefully read the alchemy technique he talked about. In fact, after listening to what Mr. Rong said, and then looking at the alchemy technique above, it was not shocking to the world, but the alchemy technique he talked about was not shocking. , It is very difficult to cultivate, and the alchemist must be able to use various flames of different attributes at the same time, so that the various impurities in the spirit grass can be perfectly blended during the alchemy process. This alone is not enough. Now the fire control technique of those alchemists can do it. Moreover, the flames of various attributes are used at the same time, so what should he do to prevent the fire poison from being produced in the medicine pill?

Seeing the back, Gu Yan was amazed. The idea of ​​this Bixia Sect patriarch is really not something that ordinary people can speculate. The secret lies in this jade plate. He did not use the ordinary method of suppressing fire with gold, but The countermeasure of making fire with ice!

This jade tablet is a thing left by the monks in ancient times. It looks like ice but not ice, like jade but not jade. It is a cold fire. With it as the center, it can reconcile the conflicts between various attributes of flames. Wonderful way of thinking, but the jade plate is not something that everyone can control. It must be able to control the flame of the ice attribute to be able to use this jade plate.

   Gu Yan smiled when she saw this, this kind of alchemy furnace, this kind of alchemy technique, was prepared for him by nature. In this world, who can be like himself, who has both chaotic spiritual veins and fire spirits with different attributes?

   As early as in Guanque City, when she and Ming Wuwang were learning alchemy, Ming Wuwang said that her unique fire control technique made her very suitable to be an alchemist. But what Gu Yan learned from him was a wild way after all. Although he often had fantastic ideas, it was not as broad and profound as Taoist alchemy, and Lin Jiaxiu was not very proficient in alchemy. Until today, Gu has Yan Cai found the most suitable way of alchemy for her. With her unique fire spirit possessing four kinds of flames, coupled with the unique fire control technique of the fire spirit root, her own condition was even more than the one who founded this. The Patriarch Bixia Sect, who cultivated the technique of alchemy, also set her on an incomparably splendid Golden Elixir Avenue.

   After reading this jade tablet carefully, Gu Yan decided not to open the furnace to refine the Snow Melting Pill first, but to study the alchemy techniques recorded on the jade tablet carefully, and then open the Pill furnace until he was fully mastered. Since then, apart from completing the daily compulsory homework, Gu Yan has not stayed at home. Even Wei Zhaoyi and others came to play with her. She also deduced that the practice had reached a critical moment, and it was inconvenient to travel, so she put all her thoughts into it. Used on the jade plate.

   The alchemy technique mentioned above is easy to say in concept, but in actual practice, the complexity of it is simply impossible to calculate. How to use the flame in a subtle and precise manner, how to combine the medicinal properties of various spirit herbs, where to be fine when a fire starts, and where to be strong, all have to be predicted before the furnace is opened. Gu Yan couldn’t help sighing: No wonder this kind of The art of alchemy has not been passed down, so it is so troublesome, how many people are willing to learn it?

She abandoned the old alchemy method and used the new method to refine the most common and common Qi nourishing pill, but she failed to open the furnace three times in a row. The flame was not fully grasped, so that the erysipelas was too strong, and she finally discarded it. With just one furnace of ordinary Qi Yang Dan, she finally succeeded after refining it on the head for the fourth time.

And the success rate of this pot is not high, there are only a dozen pills, and the rest are leftovers. Gu Yan carefully put the dozen or so Qi nourishing pills into the jade bottle, and took out one more to eat. , After tasting it carefully, it is indeed different from the medicinal pills refined before. Spiritual energy appears more harmonious in medicinal pills, and when eaten in the body, it is easier to integrate with the spiritual veins in the body. Unlike the common Qi nourishing pills on the market, although the spirit energy in it is abundant, it actually wastes more than half of it. Gu Yan's heart was overjoyed. At least this method of alchemy has been mastered by himself. The next step is how to use it more proficiently, how to master more complex medicinal properties, how to arrange the combination of spiritual herbs more reasonably, and control fire during alchemy. The problem of the method, this is not achieved in a day. So instead of practicing hard every day, she turned it on and off.

   The next day, when Gu Yan reported the matter to Rong Lao, Rong Lao looked at her and said, "I see that your eyebrows are stretched today, not like before. Could it be that you have made a breakthrough in your practice?"

  Gu Yan respected the old man very much, and did not hide it from him, and replied, "The disciple is lucky to have made some progress in the study of alchemy."

  Rong Lao smiled: "The cultivator's knowledge of alchemy is extensive and profound. I can't understand it. I only know some medicines. If it is useful to you, you can ask me."

Gu Yan thanked him respectfully. Although she still doesn't know the origin of this long-lived old man and his identity in the sect, he does not have ordinary people's sectarian views and paranoid views on himself. He teaches wholeheartedly. Thinking of being able to pass on the skills she has mastered, this also makes Gu Yan respect him very much. This is the first person to treat her as an elder since she came to Cangwu.

Rong Lao also talked about the medicinal properties of cultivating spirit herbs, so she let her go, Gu Yan saluted again and stepped back. As soon as he reached the gate of the spirit garden, he saw a few people walking in front of the spirit garden. . Seeing her standing in front of the door, he smiled and said, "I said I want to come and have a look. Sure enough, Sister Yan is here, right?"

  Gu Yan smiled and waved to them: "Are you going to the back mountain today?"

The people who came were two men and two women, namely Lin Zitong and the Wei brothers and sisters, plus Zhang Daniu. These people often travel together, and Gu Yan always travels with them. It's just that he has been studying the study of alchemy in the past few months. , It's been a long time since we got together again. At this time, when Wei Zhaoyi shouted, he couldn't help but feel itchy, and said, "Wait for me!"

A few people talked and laughed and went up the back mountain, sitting on the ground under a hillside, not far from the foggy red maple valley. At this time, the weather was gradually entering autumn, the grass was still a little green, and the leaves had begun to be stained with autumn frost. , green grass and red leaves, reflecting the clear water and blue sky, do not have a happy scene.

Zhang Daniu took out the medicinal wine he got from his master as usual, and the three girls rushed to share most of it, Wei Qing took out half of the yellow deer like a conjuration, and said, "This was called from Houshan two days ago. , keep it specially, and ask Junior Sister Gu to make it with her skillful hand."

Gu Yan smiled and took it over. Wei Zhaoyi built a simple stone platform with rubble and placed the yellow deer on it. Gu Yan flicked it with his hand, and the flames flew out, surrounding the half of the yellow deer. Bake endlessly. She roasted the deer with the method of controlling the fire spirit, and the natural fragrance penetrated into the body. Within a short while, the aroma had spread to make people drool. Everyone would divide it between you and me. After eating the deer meat and drinking wine, in this late autumn Under the setting sun, don't have a lot of fun.

   Wei Zhaoyi was asking Gu Yan curiously at this time: "Senior Sister Gu, what have you been busy with recently? Why haven't you come out recently?"

  Gu Yan said: "I've been studying alchemy recently, and I'm so fascinated that I can't even take care of my usual homework. Fortunately, I have a little income now, and I probably won't need to be so tired in the future."

Zhang Daniu nodded with a deep feeling, "Sister-in-law said very well, the way of alchemy is broad and profound, and you may not be able to see the door through your whole life. I know that you have suffered from old injuries and have not been able to fully heal. Dan, when it's refined, I'll go ask you for a bottle, which will probably be good for your injury."

  Gu Yan shook his head, "Elder Yang concocts alchemy, it is for the disciples in the sect, I went to the door to ask for no reason, and I want you to take favor. It's really bad, I'll find a way myself."

Since Elder Yang is Zhang Daniu's master, he has to open the furnace three times a year as usual to refine the medicinal pills that are commonly used by disciples in the sect. Qingyun Pill is the most suitable medicinal pill for qi refining disciples to heal wounds. How much, how many pills are made, there is a certain number, Zhang Daniu spoke for her, and most of the time he still had to give his share to Gu Yan, which made her feel very sorry, so she insisted on declining.

Lin Zitong was leaning against the hillside, with his hands crossed behind his head, he said lazily, "Ayan, you are so strong, I even said that I would ask Master for pills for you, but you didn't agree, in fact, I know What do you think, do you think that the outer disciples should bow their heads? Don’t worry, we will help you find a way sooner or later to become inner disciples. Isn’t it better for us to cultivate together?”

Gu Yan could feel the concern of several of them, thinking that she was hiding a lot of things from them, she felt a little embarrassed, so she changed the topic and said, "Last time I heard Senior Brother Wei say that you are often running around outside. Is there anything important to do in the teacher's sect?"

   After hearing this, Lin Zitong's brows furrowed, "Hey, don't mention this, it's really annoying!"

   Wei Zhaoyi said quickly: "Senior Sister Lin is now being entangled, she has a headache now!"

   "What the **** is going on?" Gu Yan asked curiously, knowing that Lin Zitong was the direct disciple of the Sect Leader, even if the elders usually cared about her very much, is there anyone in the Bixia Sect who would dare to trouble her?
