Chapter 483: Starting to refine alchemy
The next day, Zhang Xiaohua still felt no difference from her previous practice of the Beidou God Fist. However, when he finished practicing boxing and was about to return to the alchemy room, he saw Lord Nie Gu and Elder Zhang coming from the inner valley excitedly, and while walking, he was also talking happily.
Zhang Xiaohua touched her nose and looked at the sky blocked by the mountain walls. She was speechless. The sun seemed to have just risen from the east. We are still dark here. You don’t have to be so anxious if you want to squeeze labor! The chicken didn’t even cried. Cough cough, I forgot that there were no chickens in the inner valley of Huichun Valley, only the chirping of birds.
Seeing Zhang Xiaohua standing in front of the Danfang, Master Nie Gu walked a few steps and bowed, "Nephew, you're getting up so early."
Zhang Xiaohua returned the gift and said, "There is no way. She is tired and can't sleep until dawn. She always thinks about what to do today."
Master Nie Gu laughed and did not respond. Elder Zhang raised the jade box in his hand and said, "No matter how early the young man got up today, it was not as early as me and the Gu master. The classics of Huichun Valley record that it is best to pick herbs before the dew disappears, so we both got up before dawn..."
Zhang Xiaohua was stunned and said, "Is there such a specialty? Why don't I know?"
"How many days have you just started? There are still many things I don't know." Elder Zhang attacked without any mercy.
Master Nie Gu said: "This is a rule passed down from Huichun Valley in which era. It is just passed on by word of mouth, and there is no record. It is normal for nephew to not know it."
Zhang Xiaohua nodded, but felt a little strange in her heart: "Yes, I have read a lot of alchemy recipes and classics, but after all, there is no systematic study, and many things are pieced together. I don't know anything about the secrets and tricks of word-of-mouth, and these subtle things are often the key, and they are the true knowledge obtained by predecessors through practice."
Seeing that Zhang Xiaohua had some thoughts, Master Nie Gu asked keenly: "Nephew Rich, is there anything wrong with picking this herb?"
Zhang Xiaohua was stunned and smiled, "I just learned your trick of returning to Chungu again. How could there be anything wrong with it? Let me see this herb before talking about it."
Zhang Xiaohua didn't believe in the skills of returning to Chungu, but she didn't use everything herself, and she felt extremely uneasy. Alas, she was not a good source of material for being a valley owner at first glance.
Elder Zhang understood and didn't say anything, but just handed the jade box in his hand. Zhang Xiaohua took it and looked carefully. It was a jade box of similar size to his own, but the color was white. When he saw that the texture of the jade was not as good as his. His spiritual sense swept over, and there was no fluctuation of vitality on the jade box. Zhang Xiaohua was about to open it when he heard Master Nie Gu say, "Nephew, let's go to the elixir room and open it again. The herbs have been picked from the ground. If it is opened now, it will affect the medicinal properties."
Master Nie Gu is also an old expert in alchemy, but he is still a little too cautious when it comes to Jiangyan Pill, a elixir that has never been refined.
Zhang Xiaohua thought for a while and said, "Bao Nie is very reasonable. It will not be too late to open it when we refine it."
When the three of them arrived at the alchemy room, Zhang Xiaohua put the jade box in her hand on the grooved table and asked, "Father Nie, how many jade boxes are there for preserving herbs like this, we have Huichun Valley?"
Master Nie Gu thought for a while and said, "There are many more that were helped to refine the weapon refining sect and the weapon casting sect. However, they were all from many years ago. In recent years, advanced elixirs like Jiangyan Pill have not been refining Huichun Gu for a long time."
Then, hesitated for a moment and said, "If there is a need for advanced elixirs, we will propose it when the disciples of the Incense Sect return to Chungu and provide them with the corresponding rare herbs, so that they can help refine them, and bring them back when they come next time."
"Huh?" Zhang Xiaohua said strangely: "If you want to refine pills like Jiangyan Pill, Chuanxiang Sect will also help you refine them?"
Master Nie Gu smiled bitterly and said, "How is that possible? My nephew still overestimates the generosity of Chuanxiang Sect. There are many types of advanced elixirs. I think the elixirs that can improve internal strength like Jiangyan Pill, how could they refine it for us? It's just some other elixirs. Besides..." Master Nie Gu hesitated for a moment and continued, "I guess Chuanxiang Sect also has elixir skills like Professor My nephew, and I have never seen them teach me the Huichun Valley."
Elder Zhang also said angrily: "If they can help refine, we two old men will not have to work hard for the young hero."
Zhang Xiaohua blushed a little. Knowing that he was a little concerned about what he said yesterday, he bowed and said, "The two elders are very good to me, and I have also learned from Huichungu..."
Seeing this, Elder Zhang waved his hand and stopped Zhang Xiaohua, saying, "Stop talking about Young Master Ren. I just feel uncomfortable, but the rules of the sect of your sect cannot be violated, and we will never make it difficult for the young master to make it difficult. However, the refining process is best for us to take a look at it. The refining of the Crimson Flame Pill should also be left for us more."
After hearing this, Zhang Xiaohua laughed and said, "Elder Zhang is right. When the elixir is made, I will only take three pills, and the rest will be left for Huichun Valley. What do you think?"
Elder Zhang then said, "What if it is not enough three pills? Or it is not enough six pills?"
Zhang Xiaohua said without hesitation: "If there are not enough three, I won't take one of them. If there are not enough six, I will leave three of them first in Huichun Valley!"
Lord Nie Gu was about to speak, but Elder Zhang said in a long voice: "Young Master Ren is ready, that's it!"
However, Zhang Xiaohua waved her hand and said, "Elder Zhang, don't worry, you have a reluctant request."
Elder Zhang said strangely: "What else do you have to say? Didn't say enough yesterday?"
Zhang Xiaohua touched her nose and said, "I carefully studied the recipe of Jiangyan Pill last night and found that refining Jiangyan Pill does not require the whole red flame grass and Jiangzhu grass. Even half of the other ingredients are enough. I have a request, that is, to refine the half of the herbs first. If it is successful, according to our discussion just now, please leave the remaining general herbs to Master Nie Gu and Elder Zhang. Can you please see?"
"This?" Elder Zhang was a little embarrassed. Looking at Master Nie Gu, he didn't dare to take his own initiative.
Master Nie Gu frowned and said, "What if the refining fails?"
Zhang Xiaohua pursed her lips and said, "Of course the remaining half of the nephew was accepted by Wuyan."
Then he continued: "I will try to refine the remaining half."
Elder Zhang laughed and said, "Young Master Ren has a good plan and will not suffer any loss at all. Do you want to use my red flame grass back to Chungu to refine it twice?"
Zhang Xiaohua was not polite and smiled and said, "That's better than the incense sect. They won't refine it for you at all."
While the two of them were talking, Master Nie Gu finished thinking and nodded, "Dead things are not as good as living things. If a nephew can refine them into pills, what's the point of giving away the remaining herbs in Huichun Valley? Moreover, the nephew should not have any ideological burden. Even if it fails twice, it's okay."
Zhang Xiaohua was overjoyed and said, "Per Nie's father is worried about this. My nephew is still somewhat sure. He will not waste his resources and let Elder Zhang's years of hard work be wasted. Oh, by the way, these jade boxes are also given to my nephew."
"Bang" Lord Nie Gu staggered after hearing the last sentence, and said in his heart: "This guy's habits are indeed as Xiao Yu said."
Before Master Nie Gu answered, Elder Zhang waved his hand first and said, "Anyway, whatever, there are many such things in Huichun Valley. If you like it, it's okay to let your father-in-law have more than one."
This time it was Zhang Xiaohua's turn to be full of black lines.
As soon as the matter was discussed, Elder Zhang and Master Nie Gu put the jade box they had on the table, and Zhang Xiaohua could simmer fire and refine the alchemy.
Zhang Xiaohua hesitated a little, walked forward, took down the cauldron placed on the ground fire, and placed the immortal elixir furnace placed next to him from Elder Zhang's elixir room on it, and then opened the mechanism and raised the ground fire.
Seeing this, Elder Zhang immediately stopped him and said, "Young Master Ren, do you want to use this strange cauldron to refine the alchemy?"
Zhang Xiaohua smiled and said, "That's exactly what it is."
"But I have tried this elixir furnace, and I can't control the temperature at all. How can I refine elixirs?"
"Elder Zhang didn't know where you moved here a few days ago. When I was fine, I just thought about it and encountered a technique from this sect that could control the cauldron very well, and the effect was much better than the original one. Therefore, I only thought of using this technique when I refining this important Crimson Flame Pill."
"So that's it! This is the fundamental reason for his different attitudes before and after." Lord Nie Gu and Elder Zhang both showed a sudden enlightenment. No wonder they couldn't watch the whole process. Of course, the secret method of the other sects is forbidden to spread it.
When Zhang Xiaohua raised the earth fire and heated the alchemy furnace, she stood there and did not add medicine. Elder Zhang said strangely: "Sister Ren, please input internal force quickly to increase the temperature?"
Zhang Xiaohua looked at him and smiled without saying a word.
Master Nie Gu pulled his sleeve and said, "Let's go, Elder Zhang, let's go outside to avoid it first, and wait a moment for Young Master Ren to call us."
"Ah? I haven't given the medicine, so I won't let you see it?"
Elder Zhang was so depressed.
Even though he was depressed, he had already agreed, Elder Zhang could only get up and follow Lord Nie Gu out of the alchemy room.
In his spiritual sense, seeing the two of them standing helplessly outside, Zhang Xiaohua could only say sorry in her heart.
Zhang Xiaohua waved her hand and opened the lid of the jade box placed on the table. The jade box with red flame grass immediately overflowed the extremely lively and extremely lively heaven and earth vitality, while the jade box with red pearl grass overflowed the gentle and quiet heaven and earth vitality. The heaven and earth vitality of the other herbs was also somewhat different, and the concentration was also different.
