After I came back from Liang County, it took another two days for the glass house to be built. Wen Qingshan requested the use of the most transparent crystal glass. The light transmittance of this crystal glass reached more than 99%.
Inside the house, there was almost no obstruction to the sunlight. This was the first time Wu Chenzi saw this kind of glass house, and he was amazed. He thought it was perfect to refine Qi Ling Dan in this glass house.
When everything was ready, we took out all the materials needed to make the Resurrection Pill, including the fragrant yellow-brown spar we got next to the underground Yin Lake. After Wuchenzi identified it,
That thing is Dragon Yin Sand.
Wen Qingshan originally planned to use a mixer to puree all the materials, but was stopped by Wuchenzi. He said that these are rare materials, and gold cannot be seen, otherwise it will affect the material itself, so it must be made of wood.
The utensil mashes the material into puree.
Under the guidance of Wuchenzi step by step, after almost a whole day of hard work, the pills were finally kneaded. Perhaps because of the addition of fire dansha, the whole pill was brownish red. It was a coincidence that there were just forty-nine pills.
And each one is almost an inch in diameter.
I have never seen such big pills, and I couldn't help but curiously asked: "Senior Wuchenzi, how come these pills are so big?"
Wuchenzi replied: "My benefactor did not know. After the elixirs are formed on the 7749th, these elixirs will be condensed and become smaller. Then it will be just right."
Then I suddenly realized that the pill contained water, so it would shrink due to evaporation of water.
We put all the pills into the Qi Gathering Yin and Yang furnace according to Wu Chenzi's instructions, and then we have to wait patiently. However, we can't just put the alchemy furnace in this glass house and call it a day, Wu Chenzi
He said that someone still needs to stay to guard the furnace and protect the elixir to prevent external evil spirits from corroding the elixir, thereby affecting the effect of the elixir after it is completed.
But the question is who will stay to guard the furnace and protect the elixir. I definitely can't do it, because I can't sit still at all. If I stay in this glass house for seven or forty-nine days, I will probably go crazy.
No. Wen Qingshan is not suitable either, because the Qi Gathering Yin and Yang Furnace will absorb people's Yuanyang. People who practice Taoism know how to use luck to protect the essence in their bodies, but he is not a person who practices Taoism after all.
I'm afraid he will inevitably be affected by the Qi Gathering Yin and Yang Furnace, not to mention that he doesn't know how to guard the furnace and protect the elixir. The only one who really knows how to guard the furnace and protect the elixir is Wuchenzi. But the problem is that now he is a ghost body.
Moreover, he also possesses an extremely powerful Yin evil aura. If he were to guard the furnace and protect the elixir, I am afraid that the refined elixir would have too much Yin aura and lose its intended effect.
We were feeling embarrassed about this matter when Wuchenzi suddenly made an unexpected suggestion, which was to let the silver dragon guard the furnace and protect the elixir. On the one hand, the aura emitted by the dragon body is closer to that of the human body.
And it has an aura that is more powerful than the human body. On the other hand, the dragon can sit still, not to mention seven or forty-nine days, even if it does not eat or drink for decades or even hundreds of years, there will be no problem.
After listening to Wuchenzi's suggestion, Wen Qingshan and I were a little surprised. I said with some worry: "But the aura emitted by the dragon body is too strong, will it affect the aura of the alchemy furnace?"
Wuchenzi replied: "My benefactor is not aware of it. It is said that when the immortals make elixirs, they summon dragons as guardian beasts. Moreover, when the ancestors refined the supreme elixir, there was also a saying that when the elixir was completed, the dragon and tiger appeared. I thought that the ancestors
It is very likely that a dragon was summoned as the guardian beast back then! So letting that silver dragon guard the furnace and protect the elixir might achieve unexpected results."
After listening to Wuchenzi's words, Wen Qingshan muttered to himself: "Is it possible that this dragon is the key to making the heaven-defying elixir!?"
The speaker has no intention of listening, but the listener has the intention. Wen Qingshan’s words made me startled. I suddenly thought that Long Jiu once refined the elixir of immortality according to the secret recipe, but it was not really refined. I couldn’t help shouting: "Hey! Don’t say that there is such a thing.
Maybe, Master Jiu said that he strictly followed the secret recipe to refine the elixir of immortality, but he always felt that something was missing. Could it be that the achievement was due to the lack of a divine dragon to guard the furnace and protect the elixir!?"
Wuchenzi nodded and said: "I think this is indeed possible! In the Longhu Sect, only the founder refined the elixir and became an immortal. Although his subsequent disciples obtained the method of refining the elixir,
, but no one has ever refined it. I’m afraid it’s because it’s protected by a real dragon!”
I couldn't help but feel a little excited, and hurriedly said: "In that case, let's ask senior Wuchenzi to summon the silver dragon and let it guard the furnace and protect the elixir."
Without saying a word, Wuchenzi immediately turned into a black mist and escaped into the stone tablet on my chest. After a moment, with a flash of silver light, the silver dragon appeared in front of us, above our heads.
After going around in a circle, the body quickly grew in size to about two feet long.
Wuchenzi also flew out from the stone tablet. He pointed to the Qi-gathering Yin-Yang furnace and said to Yinlong: "This furnace is refining the supreme elixir. It is up to you to guard the elixir furnace to prevent the invasion of external evil spirits.
"
The silver dragon seemed to understand. He raised his head and let out an ear-splitting roar, then turned into a ray of golden light and flew straight towards the Qi Gathering Yin and Yang Furnace.
Before I could react what was going on, I felt a flash of silver light in front of my eyes, and the silver dragon had disappeared.
I was startled and asked quickly: "Where did this silver dragon go?"
Wuchenzi pointed to the lid of the Qi-gathering Yin-Yang stove and said, "My dear friend, look over there!"
I took a closer look and discovered that there was a dragon coiled on the furnace cover. This dragon looked like it was carved out and was completely integrated into the furnace cover.
I couldn't help being surprised: "Could this be the silver dragon!?"
Wuchenzi nodded and said: "The five elements of the silver dragon belong to gold and can be integrated with the metal, so at first glance, it looks like it was carved. But now that it is guarding here, no external evil will dare to invade.
, my benefactor can rest assured."
Looking at the silver dragon that had been integrated into the furnace cover, I still felt a little uneasy and asked, "Then what else should we do?"
"No need. Since there is a silver dragon to protect you, my benefactor just needs to wait. In seven or forty-nine days, the elixir should be ready."
Wuchenzi has already said this, so we can only wait patiently.
In the days that followed, I was always thinking about alchemy, but Wuchenzi also said that we had better not enter the glass room, so as not to affect the aura around the alchemy furnace. So I could only look through the glass every day.
I looked inside the house, but after all, there was some distance, and the Qi-gathering Yin-Yang furnace was just some hollow holes. I couldn't see clearly what the condition of the pills inside was, and it felt like there was no change.
Before you know it, more than half a month has passed. Although the resurrection elixir has not yet been refined, Jianjian who came back from Liang County brought good news. He said that Uncle Zhai took the anti-cancer medicine I sent him.
After that, my body seemed to be much better. I went to the County People's Hospital for a checkup a few days ago and it was said that the cancer cells had not spread compared to before, but had actually decreased.
When I heard the news, I was surprised and happy. I didn't expect that the effect of the special medicine given by Long Jiu was so obvious. This made me very relieved. I was originally worried that Uncle Zhai would not be able to make it until the day when the resurrection pill was refined.
, now I can feel relieved for the time being.
A few days later, Jianjian and I were playing chess at home. Suddenly there was a knock on the door in the yard. I thought it was Fatty Niu coming back, so I hurried to open the door. When the door opened, I found that the person standing at the door was actually
It’s Professor Dong and Dong Xiaodan.
Speaking of Dong Xiaodan, she has been uneasy since she was kidnapped by a cult member last time. Professor Dong happened to participate in a large-scale cultural relic inspection project organized by the State Administration of Cultural Heritage, so Professor Dong took her with him as a
I took her to relax. The location of the inspection was in Lop Nur, Xinjiang. They went there for more than half a month. It happened that during this time, my mind was almost entirely focused on alchemy, so I didn’t know when they would come back.
Know.
Looking at the two people in front of me, I couldn't help but be a little surprised: "Xiao Dan! Uncle Dong, why are you here?"
Dong Xiaodan raised her lips slightly and said, "What are you talking about? We went to your store first and found that it was not open. We asked the uncle of the sesame cake shop next door and he said that you haven't opened for more than half a month. What's going on!
?”
Professor Dong took Dong Xiaodan's words and said with a smile: "I originally thought you must have gone out of town, but Xiaodan insisted on coming over to take a look. I didn't expect you were really at home. Could it be that you just came back from out of town?"
I hurriedly let them into the hospital and answered honestly: "No! We haven't gone anywhere in the past ten days, we just stayed at home."
When Dong Xiaodan heard this, he immediately asked: "Since I am staying at home, why don't I open a shop? Didn't you ask me to go to the shop to help? The shop is closed, how can I help!"
When she mentioned that she came to the store to help, I felt my cheeks heat up slightly. In fact, it was just a joke made by Jianjian, asking her to come to our store to be the boss lady. I didn't expect that she would still remember it.
I quickly explained: "I have something going on at home these days, so I didn't open the store."
When Professor Dong heard this, he thought something had happened and hurriedly asked: "What, could it be that those people from the evil cult are here again?"
"That's not true. Uncle Dong, don't worry. Nothing happened. I'm just practicing in seclusion recently." To avoid unnecessary explanation, I didn't say it was for alchemy, only that I was practicing in seclusion.
"Practice in seclusion?" Both of them had surprised looks on their faces, and while we were talking, they had walked into the living room from the courtyard, and saw the chessboard placed on the coffee table and Jianjian, Dong Xiaodan, sitting next to the chessboard.
He immediately turned to look at me and said: "Mo Shiyu, the seclusion practice you mentioned is actually practicing chess skills here!"
