Chapter 46: The Birth of the Tool Man
In the room, White Snake looked at the "Fire Bending Technique" and "Qi Guiding Technique" placed on his tail, one with three heads.
A snake demon whose talent is to control wind and rain has to learn the fire-bending skills of human monks. It is simply more uncomfortable than killing it.
What's more, there are two little guys who can't stop chasing it around and fighting each other.
The white snake couldn't bear it any longer. It curled its tail, and each of the two little guys' heads trembled violently. Then it finally calmed down.
Continuing to read, the two little guys saw that White Snake was really angry and did not dare to make any more trouble.
He carefully moved to sit next to White Snake.
Xiao Chiyi bit her finger and looked at "Fire Bending", and then looked at White Snake with a pained and affectionate face. She couldn't figure out what White Snake was struggling with.
The next day, it was still dark.
White Snake stood in front of the hall and closed her eyes tightly. At a certain moment, her vertical pupils opened wide and spiritual power surged in her body.
Firebending!
The aura between heaven and earth was drawn by the magic, and the fire elements quickly gathered in the mouth of the white snake...
Poof, a puff of black smoke came out.
The firebending spell failed, and the white snake was so angry that it almost stamped its feet, if it had feet.
This is the most basic introductory spell of the fire system, which can be used by Taoist priests who have not even reached the Qi refining stage. However, it took a sparkling stage monster a whole day and a night to practice it, which is really annoying.
Kan and Xiao Chiyi on the side looked at it and giggled, almost losing their breath.
White Snake rolled his eyes at the two little guys: "Hiss, hiss, hiss, hiss..."
If you have the skills, come here. You think this is just playing house. How can magic be so easy to learn...
Halfway through his words, White Snake couldn't continue.
Xiao Chiyi babbled a few words, and a red flame suddenly lit up in his hand.
The flame burned for a while, then turned into a fiery snake and began to circle around Chiyi's arm. The snake looked somewhat similar to the white snake.
Flame transformation is nothing if not firebending.
Bai Snake was dumbfounded. After staying with Xiao Chiyi for more than thirty years, Xiao Chiyi definitely didn't know any magic. The only explanation was that Xiao Chiyi learned it after watching the exercises with him last night.
It's strange to say that after all these years, Xiao Chiyi still hasn't shown any signs of growth.
Except for possessing a powerful talent that can destroy a country, he is almost the same as an ordinary child.
As for the origin of Xiao Chiyi, White Snake also asked the other party.
But Xiao Chiyi couldn't remember who he was or where he came from.
All I know is that as long as she can remember, she has been staying in a cave. There is yellow sand everywhere outside the cave. When she is very hungry, she will catch scorpions and lizards to eat. When she is thirsty, she will dig in the ground until she can find water.
Sometimes they are stung by scorpions or buried in sand.
However, Xiao Chiyi survived by relying on her tenacious vitality.
After an unknown amount of time, a man in a robe found her, took her away, sealed her, and stayed in a small room ever since.
Someone fed them food and water regularly, and they were much better off than in the desert.
It just felt even more lonely, with not even a living thing around me.
I don't know how much time passed, but it wasn't until I was brought to Kan State by Sima Jin that I finally had contact with the outside world.
In other words, after all these years, the only memories Xiao Chiyi has are the few years he spent in Kan Country.
As for White Snake's speculation that Xiao Chiyi is the emperor's concubine, it is naturally impossible to find out or verify it.
But no matter what, Xiao Chiyi seems to be very compatible with fire spells, at least much more powerful than White Snake.
Xiao Chiyi's firebending skill is as good as the fingers of his arm.
White Snake patted Xiao Chiyi's head. From today on, you will be my gas stove.
Taking out a Xinli lollipop is a reward.
Little Chiyi, who didn't know that he had turned into a tool man, happily licked the "lollipop".
White Snake turned to look at Kan.
For no apparent reason, the little Qilong felt a cold air rushing from his anus to his forehead. He was about to run away but was entangled by the tail of a white snake.
I already have a gas stove, but I still need a spoon. White Snake thinks that Kan is quite suitable.
Qi-entraining technique, as the name suggests, is a technique that guides the flow of qi. When making elixirs, qi-entraining techniques are needed to bring the power of the medicine together to form the elixir.
The temperature in the alchemy furnace exceeds thousands or tens of thousands. It is difficult for ordinary objects to stay for a long time, and materials that can withstand high temperatures will affect the texture of the elixir. Therefore, the alchemist uses the air-entraining technique to throw in the medicinal materials, adjust the potency of the medicine, and guide the medicinal essence.
Kan was originally transformed into dragon qi, and he has a natural affinity for qi. Although he has become a living dragon after being fed by Xinli, qi transformation is Kan's innate ability. Logically speaking, he should not be afraid of high temperatures...
…Bar?
Kan knew something was wrong, so he turned into a wisp of dragon energy and was about to run away, but the white snake was the master of the dragon energy, so there was no way he could escape.
As soon as his mind moved, Kan could only float in place with his head downcast, waiting for disposal.
The white snake holds the pot, and the little red clothes light the fire.
I grabbed a handful of Kan and threw it into the iron pot. I stewed the dragon in the iron pot.
The temperature gradually increased, and the iron pot made ping-pong noises, and after a while it stopped responding.
White Snake opened the pot lid with some worry and took a look, only to see that in the red-hot iron pot, the dragon energy turned into flying freely, unaffected by the high temperature.
Seeing Xiao Chiyi and Bai Snake looking at themselves through the gap, they stuck out their tongues to express their dissatisfaction.
Okay, let's live together.
Although Kan was extremely dissatisfied and wanted to yell at White Snake for being shameless and murdering Dragon.
But White Snake gave him too much, and a trustworthy group as big as a basketball fell on Kan's head, and all grudges were resolved.
It slaps its chest with its stubby front feet to ensure the task is completed.
With the two tool men joining in, White Snake directly threw the "Huang Lao Alchemy Sutra" to the two little guys. As for itself, it only needed to learn to read Qi.
Drawing on the experience of educating illiterate little Green Snakes, this time the two little guys, White Snakes, learned how to read and write early, and now they really come in handy.
Now it's up to Li Wenzhi to take charge of the Dan Furnace.
In the past, there was also an alchemy furnace in Guoshi Temple, which was built by Sima Jin.
But for one thing, the alchemy furnace had been damaged by the border army's battering ram, and then burned down, leaving only an iron ingot.
Furthermore, the pill furnace was used to refine poisonous pills for living people. White Snake couldn't handle them, and Li Wenzhi couldn't eat them.
Therefore, if Li Wenzhi wanted to obtain the alchemy furnace, he had to find another way.
One day, King Li Wenzhi came to the Holy Beast Hall again.
This time, he did not come alone. There were Yu Linwei in front of him to clear the way. In the middle, there were eight large sedan chairs with all kinds of gold, silver, jewelry and expensive utensils. There were eight maids and eight servants behind him.
These are all rewards for the holy beast White Snake Fairy.
Of course, among the eight sedan chairs, there is an alchemy furnace placed on one of them.
After entering the Holy Beast Hall, all the other rewards were sent to the warehouse of the Holy Beast Hall, but this alchemy furnace followed the monarch's sedan through the front hall, into the inner courtyard, and was placed at the door of White Snake's bedroom.
This alchemy furnace is not a treasure, but it is the most entry-level alchemy furnace in the monk world. It is called: Three-Legged Swallowing Gold.
But it was Li Wenzhi who spent a lot of effort and went around in circles to buy it from a small sect behind the back of the entire North County officials, people, and monks.
Although the quality of the alchemy furnace was average, Li Wenzhi spent a lot of energy and effort to buy it.
At least the emperor paid off, and this alchemy furnace was sent to the Holy Beast Hall as a canonization item.
