Chapter 466 Simplifying the Recipe

Chapter 466 Simplifying the recipe

It is true that the Immortal Way has been annihilated for thousands of years, and alchemy has also gradually disappeared. Various alchemy techniques have been reshaped to suit the rules of martial arts. In the past ten thousand years, the changes in medicinal herbs have also been huge. Just the names are completely different. What Zhang Xiaohua now gets The jade slips are the authentic alchemy technique used by immortals. The contents are of course directly passed down, and the herbs that can be used are completely different from the current system.

Therefore, if Zhang Xiaohua did not have this "Compendium of Herbal Medicine", even if serious medicinal herbs were placed in front of Zhang Xiaohua, he might not be able to know that these were the medicinal herbs specified in the elixir.

This "Compendium of Herbs" came just in time, and delivered what Zhang Xiaohua had been dreaming of. Originally, he wanted to ask Elder Zhang for more information on the ancient and modern names of various herbs. Now he only needs to follow the diagram to find the correct herb, what is the name? It's just a title.

The jade slips of "Baicao Compendium" are very thin, but the content is very vast, recording countless medicinal knowledge, which is enough for Zhang Xiaohua to learn. Seeing that it was still early, Zhang Xiaohua began to slowly memorize and learn.

The next day, Nie Qianyu came to the alchemy room on time and brought a lot of herbs. When she saw Zhang Xiaohua, she had already lost yesterday's boredom and said with a smile: "Brother Ren, I heard from daddy that you and Elder Zhang yesterday Dabai had a fight?"

Zhang Xiaohua scratched his head and said: "What are you talking about, Nie Xiaoyu'er, how can you talk like this? How can I, this young hero, be as knowledgeable as a little white wolf? If Elder Zhang hadn't appeared in time, I would have punched him three times It was flattened with just two feet, so where is the 'fighting' attitude you mentioned?"

Nie Qian pursed her lips and smiled and said: "Brother Ren is really powerful. Dabai is also a tyrant in the valley. He always bullies other animals. He is also Elder Zhang's pet, always pampered. How did you deal with it yesterday?" , I guess it will be honest for a while.”

Thinking about it, it is true that Dabai was so powerful yesterday, that is, Zhang Xiaohua was very strong in martial arts and did not suffer under the wolf's claws. If it were someone else, it is really unlikely; but think about Dabai's tragic failure yesterday, and the way he wanted to die together, Zhang Xiaohua Xiaohua secretly nodded in appreciation.

After chatting with Zhang Xiaohua for a while, Nie Qianyu blushed slightly and said, "Elder Zhang is the same. He called me to my father last night and said a lot of things for no reason..."

Zhang Xiaohua said with a smile: "Really? He must have passed on his many years of experience digging herbs in the valley to you."

"Bah" Nie Qianyu couldn't help but spat: "I wanted to ask Elder Zhang for advice, but he was obsessed with the method you taught dad. After telling me about it, he pestered dad with questions."

After hearing this, Zhang Xiaohua's heart moved and she said seriously: "Nie Xiaoyu'er, that technique is very important.

You must remember that except for your father's instructions, no one else can speak, especially..." After thinking for a moment, he smiled bitterly and said: "I didn't want to say more about your affairs in the Valley of Rejuvenation, so don't blame me for talking too much. , never tell your two sisters. "

"Sister?" Nie Qianyu exclaimed: "Brother Ren, do you have any prejudice against my sister? You have only met my sisters once. Oh, do you think it's not okay for your eldest sister to ask you to compete on stage? willing?"

This question was rather childish. Of course, Nie Qianyu just wanted to ask Zhang Xiaohua the reason. This was just to attract others.

Zhang Xiaohua shook her head and said: "As you said, your two sisters and I just met once, how can we have any prejudice? It's just that both of them are married outside the valley. They may keep secrets, but they can't speak strictly. , maybe it will spread, which will be very bad for the Valley of Rejuvenation."

"But," Nie Qian stared at Zhang Xiaohua and said, "If this technique belongs to your Beidou sect, you are just leaking the sect's technique. When the time comes, I will ask my father to stake the family property of Huichun Valley. The noble sect may not be able to forgive you. But I remember you didn’t say that that day. Could it be that this technique..."

It has to be said that Zhang Xiaohua's repeated instructions finally aroused Nie Qianyu's suspicion and thought of the origin of the technique.

Zhang Xiaohua's expression turned stern and she said: "The origin of this technique is somewhat unknown. However, since it can bring fundamental changes to the alchemy of Huichun Valley, do you think Valley Master Nie can refuse? Do you think I can?" Won’t I tell you this?”

Nie Qian sighed and said, "That's right. Thank you, Brother Ren. Even though I know it's poison to quench my thirst, my father can't refuse it. And Brother Ren is also extremely kind. I understand, I..."

Hearing that she was about to show off again, Zhang Xiaohua quickly waved her hands and said: "Yesterday I told Valley Master Nie and Elder Zhang that this technique is only for making elixirs and other people will definitely not be able to see it. Just don't let people know about this technique. .I am telling you today just because I want you to keep it confidential."

"I know, last time Senior Brother Lu from the Weapon Refining Sect came to provoke me, I was wary. If someone hadn't said something deliberately, how would he know to compete with you? I just want you to know that this time Chungu is not It’s not a paradise, I just want you to leave early.”

Seeing that Nie Qianyu was already conscious, Zhang Xiaohua stopped talking and pointed at a lot of herbs: "It seems that Valley Master Nie wants to make more use of my free labor, Nie Xiaoyu'er, let's What elixir are you going to make today?"

Nie Qian rolled her eyes at Zhang Xiaohua and said with a smile: "If Brother Ren feels unhappy and settles the bill at three cents a day, what do you think?"

"Halo~" Zhang Xiaohua also rolled his eyes and said: "That algorithm of yours is a time-based reward for ordinary people. I am an expert, so I have to be paid according to my work. How about giving me one gold for each elixir I refine?" ?”

"Bah" Nie Qian spat: "You are so beautiful."

Zhang Xiaohua laughed loudly.

Picking out some herbs from the ground, he walked towards the cauldron, shaking his head and muttering: "Pure pressing, pure pressing."

Nie Qianyu pursed her lips and smiled, and followed behind.

Today's elixir refining was still very fast. Although Nie Qianyu had prepared quite a lot of medicinal herbs, more than a dozen elixir recipes were completely refined in one morning.

Seeing the disciples put all the elixirs into porcelain bottles, Nie Qianyu smiled bitterly and said: "Brother Ren, there is something wrong with your practice."

Zhang Xiaohua also smiled after hearing this and said: "So you can see it too, Nie Xiaoyu'er, can you tell me?"

Nie Qian said in confusion: "I know that Brother Ren wants to practice the alchemy technique, but you are practicing pill recipes one by one, just to make pills for me in the Valley of Rejuvenation, and it will not improve your alchemy skills much at all. If If you continue to practice like this, we in the Rejuvenation Valley will really pay you."

Zhang Xiaohua nodded and said: "Yes, at first I also wanted to refine the elixirs one by one, but the plan could not keep up with the changes. Before I finished practicing this elixir, I found something wrong with it."

"That's right. Brother Ren, almost all the elixir recipes in this book are refining methods. As long as you refine a few of them, the others will be refined. There is no need to practice all the elixir recipes!"

"exactly."

Zhang Xiaohua is decisive.

"Then, let's do this." Nie Qianyu hesitated for a moment and said: "I have hundreds or even thousands of elixirs in Huichun Valley. How can you be the leader if you practice like this? I will go back and tell dad tonight. You don't have to practice them all. I will pick out various elixir recipes with different techniques or different preparation methods, and Brother Ren only needs to successfully refine the representative elixir."

Zhang Xiaohua was very moved after hearing this. He almost had the urge to scratch her nose and said with a smile: "Why would Master Nie agree? Is he leaving her to work in vain?"

"Bah," Nie Qian spat, "You think you are being exploited as a coolie."

As he said that, his face turned red first.

Zhang Xiaohua nodded and said: "Then please Xiao Yu'er, take this booklet of elixir recipes away tomorrow. I will look at it carefully and then make some elixirs for myself. I'm sorry, I just gave them to you." People are working on their own land for a while.”

"Puch!" Nie Qian laughed and said, "Okay, Brother Ren, you can make the elixir. I will go back and tell dad that I will find you the elixir recipe for tomorrow this afternoon."

"Okay, I'm sorry to trouble you, Xiao Yu'er, but I still want to see all the prescriptions. You must not hide them."

"Okay" Nie Qianyu said in a long voice: "I remember, my labor in the Valley of Spring..."

After that, his cheeks turned red and he ran out.

Looking at Nie Qianyu's lively back, Zhang Xiaohua touched her nose and smiled bitterly: "Is this young master so charming?"

After closing the door, Zhang Xiaohua was not in a hurry to refine the elixir. She sat cross-legged on the futon and realized the way of heaven. After waiting for a long time, with an unpredictable smile at the corner of her mouth, she got up and came to the place where she placed it in the groove. in front of the alchemy furnace.

After a while, you will need to use this alchemy furnace to refine elixirs. It is best to practice your skills now.

Looking at the alchemy furnace in the groove, Zhang Xiaohua applied the magic formula for shrinking and enlarging the alchemy furnace that he usually used. The alchemy furnace did not respond at all. Zhang Xiaohua couldn't help but frown. He thought that this magic formula was effective for all alchemy furnaces. It's useful.

Fortunately, after he raised the earth fire and inserted the magic formula to control the fireworks, the temperature of the alchemy furnace gradually rose. Then he put in the herbs and put in several common magic formulas. The herbs gradually turned into juice, and Zhang Xiaohua felt relieved. It seems that the method of shrinking the alchemy furnace is unique to my own alchemy furnace, but the method of making alchemy is still universal.

According to the record of the second alchemy technique on the jade slip, Zhang Xiaohua successfully refined more than a dozen kinds of elixirs in a short time.

That is, this second method is used by Immortal Dao to refine top-level elixirs. Zhang Xiaohua's elixirs are not only used by martial arts, but also primary elixirs. Using this method is really... a first-class test.

Later, Zhang Xiaohua recorded the experience of refining these dozen kinds of elixirs, as well as the defects of the five elements, on the jade slips. Then, he took out the booklet of elixir recipes and recorded the remaining ten elixir recipes on the jade slip. In the jade slips, he stopped.

After all, I have just discovered the five elements of elixirs, and only through a lot of practice can I get the final conclusion.
