5, Bupleurum ginseng with Pinellia
"There are pharmacists in the world who mix various medicinal materials to cure patients. There are also poison masters who mix various medicinal materials to harm people. And we alchemists mix these medicinal materials together to make elixirs.
Use it as an aid in spiritual practice.”
Holding a herb in her hand, Dan Yunzi looked like a master and talked eloquently.
"For example, if you are a secular pharmacist like this herb, the most you can do is mix it into a prescription for stimulating the meridians and activate meridians, and then make a decoction. However, we alchemists can extract the medicinal power from it through the alchemy furnace.
As the main ingredient for refining menstruation pills."
Looking at the menstrual grass, Chen Tianhao, who had a family history and knew some knowledge about traditional Chinese medicine, really couldn't listen to the lecture as attentively as the other Shangxuanzong disciples.
Isn't this Bupleurum? It's something that can be found all over the mountains and plains. It sounds like a treasure.
"Now, let me demonstrate how to extract the power of this medicine."
Hearing this, everyone stared with wide eyes. Chen Tianhao also quickly calmed down and looked at Dan Yunzi.
I saw my alchemy furnace floating out of Dan Yunzi's sleeves. The alchemy furnace became more than half a foot high, like a hot pot.
With a gentle push, the alchemy furnace fell onto the ground fire.
"Controlling your own alchemy furnace so that it can understand your own thoughts is a necessary condition for a qualified alchemist."
As Dan Yunzi spoke, he controlled the rotation of the alchemy furnace, and soon felt the scorching heat on it.
When Dou Shou threw the medicinal herbs over, the lid of the alchemy furnace opened automatically and swallowed the medicinal herbs into the furnace chamber.
"This single medicinal material is very easy to refine. You just need to feel the changes in spiritual power."
With that said, Dan Yunzi stretched out his hand and took back the alchemy furnace. Then he lifted the lid of the furnace and found a ball of light green juice the size of a fingernail hanging in the air.
Is that all? Three times five divided by two, chirping?
"Okay, you can try it yourself now."
Chen Tianhao looked at a group of disciples pretending to be confused and couldn't help but sigh. In a backward semi-feudal and semi-fantasy society, education is all in the form of "the master leads the door, and the practice depends on the individual."
If this could be practiced, it would be nothing short of metaphysics.
"Buzz——"
Chen Tianhao was dumped. No, he was sent to the underground fire.
No matter how the ground fire burns, he can no longer feel it. The pitiful heat storage is better than nothing. But he is a little strange. It seems that he can sense some heat changes in the furnace and even control it slightly.
Unfortunately, there is no one who can communicate with me, and I don’t know if I am very good at it.
More than a dozen alchemy furnaces were undulating and spinning on the ground fire, but no one took action.
The furnace lid cannot be opened.
"Ahem, I just showed you the process of refining medicine. You can place the alchemy furnace nearby and use your spiritual power to open the lid of the furnace."
Chen Tianhao is sure that this Dan Yunzi is definitely a swindler and does not have a teaching qualification certificate. If he uses this trick, he will simply mislead the students and may cause a teaching accident.
After hearing Dan Yunzi's words, everyone quickly took back the alchemy furnace, wrapped the lid of the furnace with spiritual power, and put the herbs into the furnace.
Chen Tianhao looked at the handful of Bupleurum that was thrown into the furnace and didn't know what to do.
Fat girl, it’s not that I won’t help you, it’s actually that I can’t help you either.
Looking at the disciples who were also at a loss, Chen Tianhao just wanted to laugh three times.
A mediocre teacher misleads people!
Dan Yunzi, who was a little embarrassed, simply ignored it, closed his eyes and started meditating.
"Junior Brother Sun, in fact, you don't practice enough. You can touch the alchemy furnace with your palms and transfer spiritual power into it."
The tall disciple who had been standing behind Dan Yunzi stepped forward a few steps, walked to Sun Maolin, stretched out his hand and patted his alchemy furnace gently.
"Pah, pah, pah -"
"Junior brother, do you want to try too?"
Sun Maolin also extended his hand.
"Pah, pah, pah -"
"Junior brother, please be gentle."
"Bang!"
There was an explosion in the alchemy furnace of a disciple next to Sun Maolin.
"Oh, this junior brother, you blew up the furnace."
The tall senior sister turned around, looked at the somewhat bewildered disciple beside her, and chuckled.
"Exploded, exploded?"
The disciple looked confused. He had just glanced at the figure of the senior sister next to him, and he didn't care about the stove.
The others quickly imitated the demonstration given by the tall senior sister just now, reaching out and patting the alchemy furnace to transfer spiritual power into it.
"Snapped!"
Chen Tianhao felt a warm spiritual power coming from the furnace wall, making him feel warm all over. But the spiritual power was too weak, and it was not enough to fill the gap between the teeth of the agile little dragon.
Have some more.
As if receiving his call, "Pah, pah, pah!"
Several times in a row, another stream of spiritual power came. It was just that the spiritual power was getting less and less each time.
Hey, looking at the fat girl's pale face, Chen Tianhao knew that she must have insufficient spiritual power. Looking at the other disciples, they all looked the same.
What should we do? In the furnace, the herbs are still in the form of herbs. They have not turned into water like Danyunzi.
Wai, little guy, why don’t you turn into water quickly!
Chen Tianhao stared at the herb and shouted loudly.
Hey, it understands!
Although there was no sound, Chen Tianhao clearly felt a sense of fear and trembling.
Mom, there are bad people here!
"Bang!"
Chen Tianhao looked at the herbs that turned into ashes in front of him, feeling a little ashamed in his heart.
Hey, do I look like a bad person?
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
…
As if there was an infection, there was a roar in the medicine hall and the whole furnace exploded.
No, there are still people who don’t have an oven.
Sun Maolin carefully opened the stove cover, stretched out his hand, and a ball of mung bean-like juice was drawn out.
"Sister, it's done."
Mo Yun smiled slightly, and Dan Yunzi, who was sitting cross-legged, opened his eyes and nodded.
At least the whole army was not wiped out.
"Extracting the medicinal power is the most basic first step. You can figure it out carefully from now on."
As if he didn't have the patience to communicate carefully with the disciples, Dan Yunzi went directly to the topic of alchemy.
"Three strains of menstrual grass, one root of soul-protecting grass, one penny of blood-purifying seeds, extract the medicinal power from the alchemy furnace, and then stir and combine."
I saw Dan Yunzi waving his arms, and the alchemy furnace rotated and danced accordingly.
"Bang!"
It wasn't a furnace, but the furnace lid was opened, and three large earth-yellow soybean pills were photographed on a sapphire plate.
"Have you ever taken these menstrual pills? They look exactly the same."
It was still Sun Maolin, who took a few steps forward and looked at the pills in the jade plate.
"Replying to Master, these three menstruation pills are full in color and round in shape. They are the best pills at first glance."
He wears a lot of clothes, but he never wears flattery. Dan Yunzi waved his hand very helpfully.
"I have practiced this Tongjing Pill too many times, so I am just familiar with it."
As he spoke, he stood up and waved his sleeves.
"If you can't make three furnaces for each of you, you will have to listen to the lecture outside the medicine hall next time."
After saying that, he turned around and left with the tall senior sister, leaving behind a group of slumped disciples.
Three furnaces? Thirty furnaces is about right!
"Brother, you have to help me."
Junior sister Yue Rou looks exactly like Teacher Youya, but her body is not attached to Sun Maolin.
Tsk, as he is, he can't even do it by himself. Do you think that extracting the medicinal power just now was his own skill?
Seeing Sun Maolin's changing expression, Chen Tianhao felt happy.
Just this Bupleurum ginseng and Pinellia ternata, senior Dan Yunzi, these things can make elixirs, are you serious?
Seeing the fat girl picking out the medicinal ingredients through gritted teeth, Chen Tianhao looked forward to it.
Come on, my alchemy life is about to really begin.
Chapter completed!
