Chapter 121: Alchemy Matters
After the banquet was dispersed, Li Xuandu first went to see Yan Feiqing alone, and after the two had an open and honest conversation, there was no need for Li Xuandu to ask for help, Yan Feiqing took the initiative to give Li Xuandu a jade box that had already been prepared, which contained a precious vermilion fruit with no price.
After Li Xuandu collected the Zhu Guo, he went to see Nan Kezi again.
At this time, Nan Kezi was already preparing to return to Donghua Sect, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised to see Li Xuandu coming alone.
The two sat down separately in the guest room, Nan Kezi pondered slightly, and asked, "I don't know ...... Mr. Li is here?"
Li Xuandu looked solemn and said, "I want to refine a pill, I don't know if the chief can recommend it on my behalf?" or directly the Taoist master personally opened the furnace for alchemy. However, before alchemy, I also wanted to ask the Taoist chief to refine 'Xuanhuang' and 'Jinghua' for me, but I don't know if the chief agreed. ”
Nan Kezi was taken aback and asked, "'Xuanhuang' and 'Jinghua' are easy to refine, but I don't know what pill Mr. Li wants to refine?"
Li Xuandu took out the "Wuqi True Pill" pill given to him by Yu Qingning from the "Eighteenth Floor" on his wrist, put it on the table, and then pushed it in front of Nan Kezi.
Nan Kezi took a closer look at this Dan Fang, and was immediately taken aback: "This is the Dan Fang of the 'Five Qi True Pill', Mr. Li wants to refine the 'Five Qi True Pill'? You must know that the five main ingredients required for this 'Five Qi True Pill', except for 'Xuanhuang' and 'Jinghua', are all very rare things, even our Donghua Sect, I am afraid it will be difficult to get together." ”
"This is not a matter of worry. Li Xuan unhurriedly took out two jade boxes and a jade gourd from the "eighteenth floor".
Nan Kezi is proficient in the way of Waidan, alchemy for many years, just by taking a look, he immediately recognized the origin of these things, became more and more shocked, and muttered: "The blood chalcedony of the Xuannu Sect, the immortal spring of the Cihang Sect, and the Zhu Guo of the Zhengyi Sect, Mr. Li was able to find these three things, it seems that Mr. Li really has a great friendship with Yan Zhangjiao and others." ”
Li Xuandu just smiled slightly and didn't say much.
Nan Kezi finally pulled his eyes out of these things, and said, "Since Mr. Li has gathered a few main ingredients, the 'Wuqi True Pill' has already been refined. ”
Li Xuandu asked, "Daoist Chief, is this an agreement?"
Nan Kezi smiled and said: "At the beginning, outside the summer palace, if it wasn't for Mr. Li's righteous action, Lao Dao's old bones would really have to be explained in the hands of the tree demon, and now Mr. Li has a request for Lao Dao, how can Lao Dao shirk it?"
Li Xuandu thanked him.
Nan Kezi waved his hand and said: "But there is one point, alchemy is a meticulous work, different pills need different Dan furnaces, and the fire of the Dan furnace is different, there are more than ten of them, plus various fire control techniques, even if Lao Dao wants to help Mr. Li alchemy now, it will not be possible." There are also dozens of materials needed for a blind 'Wuqi True Pill', 'Xuanhuang', Jinghua', Blood Chalcedony, Changsheng Spring, and Zhu Guo These five things are just the main ingredients, and there are many auxiliary materials. ”
Li Xuandu smiled: "This is nature. ”
When he first explained the corpse pill to Li Xuandu, Nan Kezi fell in love with the book bag, and was hooked up at this time, and then said: "There is also a saying about refining the 'Wuqi True Pill', the pill made of the same material may be divided into upper, middle and lower three grades, as for why this is so, it is because the alchemy should also pay attention to a time, place, and people, if all three are there, then the Dan becomes the top grade, but the difficulty is too great, and it can only depend on luck, which is what we often call the word 'chance'." ”
Nan Kezi touched his goatee, and his eyes flashed: "But a top-grade 'Wuqi True Pill', the effect is also extraordinary, if Mr. Li takes it, not only can he repair the realm, but also can go to the next level, maybe he will rush to the heaven and man realm with the help of medicinal power, of course, such a heaven and man realm obtained by relying on foreign things, there is a lot of worry, and the old Tao does not agree with Mr. Li to act like this." ”
Li Xuandu nodded slightly, agreeing with Nan Kezi's words, and then asked, "What about the middle grade and the lower grade?"
Nan Kezi said: "The time, the place, the people, in addition to the people, can get more time and the place of the two one, is the Chengdan in the product, the effect of the medicine is not up or down, the rules are decent, if the purple mansion is taken, you can repair the realm, and then help you return to the realm of the year, that is, in one step." And Dancheng is the next product, it is said that when Dancheng is only human, there is no time and place, and most of the medicinal effect is wasted. ”
"If there is no harmony, then it will be a waste of refining, at least there will only be a pile of medicinal residue left, or at worst, even the Dan furnace will be blown up to the sky. When Lao Dao was a teenager, there was a senior in the sect who also used this Zhu Guo to refine the pill, and one accidentally caused the fire in the Zhu Guo to leak out, so that it blended with the Dan fire, but in an instant, not only the Dan furnace exploded, but even the Dan Hall was engulfed by raging fire, and finally the fire spread to half of the sect, and it was too late to extinguish, and it was almost a catastrophe. ”
Li Xuandu listened very carefully, and after listening, he said: "Although the Taoist is relieved to refine, as long as he does not directly refine and waste, whether it is a high-grade, a medium-grade, or a low-grade, I can accept it." ”
Nan Kezi Zhengse said: "Lao Dao is obsessed with alchemy for half a life, these are rare materials, since you want to refine it, you naturally have to refine it to the best, if it is just to refine it into a low-grade pill, it is also a waste of these things." ”
Li Xuandu smiled, did not refute, and asked instead, "I don't know how much it costs?"
Nan Kezi said: "Li Gongzi is kind to me, the pills and medicinal materials are all ready, Lao Dao only needs to contribute, and this matter is also very beneficial to Lao Dao's Wai Dan Dao, where do you need any cost." ”
Li Xuandu shook his head and said: "The account is not calculated like this, even if the Dao Chief is willing to contribute for free, then in addition to a few main materials, there are also various auxiliary materials, these auxiliary materials also cost money, in addition, there are also 'Xuanhuang' and 'Jinghua' refining also requires silver money, these can not be paid in advance." ”
When Nan Kezi heard Li Xuandu say this, he no longer insisted, and said: "Our Donghua Sect makes a living by refining pills and various medicines, because we want to make a profit, there must be a lot of water in the price, and many of the auxiliary materials used in the 'Wuqi True Pill' are not too precious, and the price itself will not be too high. In addition, Lao Dao still has a little bit of thin noodles in the sect, and if you remove the moisture in it, you can buy it at the lowest price, and even a few points lower than the original price. ”
Li Xuandu nodded, knowing that these accessories were by no means as simple as a thousand Taiping dollars, Nan Kezi should have deliberately lowered the price, but he was not good at refusing the kindness of others, so as not to seem too deliberate and reject people thousands of miles away, so he also agreed: "Then there is the labor chief to bother." ”
As he spoke, he took out a peace ticket from the "eighteenth floor".
The Taiping ticket can be regarded as a type of silver ticket, which is different from the ordinary silver ticket, which is issued by the Taiping Money Village under the name of the Taiping Sect and can be exchanged for Taiping money. In order to prevent counterfeiting, the Taiping ticket is made very finely, made of the rune paper of the best talismans, and the surface is painted with a variety of Taiping Sect's secret talisman patterns, only in the middle is written the four words "Tianxia Tianping", and the same is true on the back, but the four characters of "Tianxia Taiping" have become "Taiping worry-free".
A Taiping ticket is fixed for 1,000 Taiping coins, which is 100 worry-free coins. If it is converted into silver, it will be 30,000 taels of silver, which is really not a small amount.
Li Xuandu originally had 4,000 Taiping money, and gave Zhou Shuning 1,000, which was used by the second senior brother for 1,000, and the last 2,000 remained, and 1,000 was exchanged for red money, which was placed on the "18th floor", and the other half was exchanged for this brand-new Taiping ticket.
So this Taiping ticket is already half of Li Xuandu's net worth.
Li Xuandu pushed it in front of Nan Kezi.
Nan Kezi was not hypocritical, and included both the Danfang and the Taiping Ticket in his Sumeru, and then asked, "I wonder when Mr. Li plans to leave for Donghua Sect?"
Li Xuandu said: "I still have some personal matters to deal with, maybe a little later, probably in the spring of next year, I can't go with the Taoist leader." ”
