Volume 1: Brothers, Brothers Chapter 14: A Warning, The Future Will Be Blessed by Carelessness (Part 2)
Mo Chou watched quietly.
She was cooking, and Zhang Qi was reading; she was eating wild wheat cakes with wild vegetable soup, and Zhang Qi was reading in one hand and holding the cake in the other; she was cleaning up the mess after the meal, and he was still reading; now that she had finished everything, she sat down
Looking at him from the side, he was still reading.
She had nothing to say: "Brother, those people are so careless, they even missed such a precious Sumeru ring!"
"Yes, yes!" Zhang Qi replied absentmindedly, his eyes still not leaving those small jade pupils.
"This can be considered as the predecessors were careless, and the descendants will be blessed. Big brother is really blessed, such good luck!"
"Yes, yes!" Zhang Qi stared at Jade Eyes, his hands seemed to be dancing unconsciously, and he seemed to be drawing some kind of seal.
Mochou endured the pain in her nose and stood up: "Brother, I'm leaving. Please be careful on the road."
"Yes, yes!" Zhang Qi nodded casually and frowned again, as if he had encountered some difficulty.
Mochou looked around with some reluctance, and seemed to want to say something, but she didn't. Instead, she sighed softly, turned around and left.
Zhang Qi still didn't look up.
It wasn't until half an hour passed that he reluctantly raised his head and shook his sore neck: "Well, this alchemy technique is really profound and profound. If you really want to understand it, I'm afraid it will cost you who knows how much energy and time. Mochou...
…”
But the cave was empty, and there was no trace of Mochou.
Zhang Qi smacked his lips, but didn't take it seriously: "It seems that she left first. Yes, she wants to leave, can I still stop her..."
He shook his head and turned his gaze to the jade eyes again: "Alchemy is a good craft. I heard that it can be quite profitable."
Logically speaking, elixirs are something that every warrior wants to obtain. However, there are very few warriors who possess elixirs.
The elixir is made by combining various medicinal materials with a certain formula using certain techniques and refining it in the elixir furnace. The raw materials for refining the elixir are various medicinal materials, plus auxiliary materials such as paste. In addition, elixir refining also involves
You need to use elixir recipe, charcoal and elixir bottle.
The price of elixir is very expensive, mainly because it is the crystallization of knowledge.
There are flowers and plants everywhere in the mountains and forests. To outsiders, they may be beautiful or weak, and there is nothing surprising about them. But to an alchemist who is familiar with alchemy, they are valuable elixirs.
, a good material for refining elixirs.
Once you have the materials, you have to combine them according to the proportions specified in the elixir recipe. You also have to use certain techniques to gunpowder, combine the medicine, and make the elixir. You also have to be patient enough to warm the elixir slowly, and finally you can refine each individual elixir.
Here comes the elixirs each with their own magical effects.
In this entire process, if any link is not done properly or perfectly, there will only be one result, and that is the failure of alchemy!
Therefore, alchemy is not a simple matter. According to the "Encyclopedia of Alchemy", if you want to become an alchemist, you must have three major conditions: First, you must have the blood of the fire-attribute god. This is the foundation. Without the fire-attribute blood, you will not be able to make alchemy.
Possibility to mobilize and control flames.
Flames must be used to make elixirs. If you cannot mobilize and control the flames, how can you still make elixirs?
The second is to have strong financial support: whether it is to buy elixirs or obtain elixirs, a large amount of money is needed; and a large amount of money is required to be continuously invested: when you first learn to make alchemy, the failure rate is quite high.
Only with a continuous supply of elixirs can we slowly gain experience from failures and slowly increase the success rate of alchemy: in the beginning, alchemists lose money.
Thirdly, it is necessary to have a master and the master's careful guidance, so that the alchemist can avoid detours and grow as quickly as possible.
According to the "Encyclopedia of Alchemy", alchemists should be trained from an early age: when they are about five or six years old, once they are tested for their fire-bearing bloodline, they can be sent to the master.
Apprenticeship. However, you cannot immediately learn alchemy after becoming a disciple. You must first follow the master and practice alchemy.
Three years as a handyman, responsible for making fires, fanning fires, picking medicine, washing medicine and other chores; after three years, you can take care of the alchemy furnace and help; after another three years, you can help with gunpowder and warming elixirs; in this way, you still have to live for three more years.
Years are needed to try to make alchemy alone: so it takes a full twelve years to train an apprentice who can make alchemy independently!
The original owner of this "Alchemy Encyclopedia", Wen Renlu, probably has not yet reached the level of being able to make alchemy independently.
However, Zhang Qi did not meet any of these conditions. He only had a copy of "The Encyclopedia of Alchemy" in his hand.
But he made up his mind: "I want to learn alchemy, not only to become an alchemist or master, but also to become an alchemy boy. I will be able to have enough food and clothing in my life. Besides, with the elixir, I will be able to do it as soon as possible."
Grow up!"
Pills are divided into levels, and alchemists are also divided into levels: those who can refine first-level elixirs are alchemy boys, and those who can refine second-level elixirs grow into alchemists; alchemy masters can refine third-level elixirs.
That is already an extremely rare expert.
Beyond the alchemy masters, there are alchemy masters, alchemy kings, alchemy masters, alchemy sages, alchemy emperors, and even alchemy gods!
It is said that there is a "Herb God King" in the God Realm, who is the supreme Alchemy God in the Five Realms of the Holy Heaven.
Of course, Zhang Qi still doesn't dare to imagine such legends. He still needs to solve too many problems if he wants to refine elixirs.
There is no alchemy furnace, no master, just a boring book and a dozen alchemy bottles piled in a corner of the Hidden Ring.
"Don't be afraid. I can't make elixirs for the time being, so I'll learn to identify and collect medicinal materials first." Zhang Qi was very calm, not worried about the uncertainty of the future: "Anyway, I know that I am a fire attribute, although I don't have the blood of God.
, but I think the immortal energy can also be used to refine elixirs, right? As long as I go all out and take my time, one day I will be able to refine elixirs - I have to find an elixir furnace first."
Zhang Qi clapped his hands and was ready to go: he would strive to become an alchemist as soon as possible.
But just after taking two steps, a "beep" sound attracted him.
First, I looked around and saw nothing unusual. The "beep" came from him. Then I searched carefully and found that it came from the Wuqi Ring: it was uploaded from a blood sacrifice order.
On the blood sacrifice order, a few lines of small words have appeared: The Holy Blood Sacrifice has prepared many adventures for everyone. If you can get the harvest, it will greatly help the growth of all blood sacrificers, because each adventure point has a large number of skills and equipment.
Elixir and other treasures. Actual
Go up, Wan Zhang Mountain is an ancient secret realm, and there are a lot of adventures waiting for you in it. Now, the first adventure spot has been discovered, which is Qishu Lake deep in the Qishu forest. Now, you all are invited to go
Try your luck!
Behind the small characters is the location of Qishu Lake, which turns out to be not too far from the small cave where Zhang Qi was.
But Zhang Qi didn't want to try his luck.
He is a cultivator of immortality, and his cultivation system is different from that of other blood sacrificers. Although he can mutate the fire seal into a fire gang, which makes people think that he is also a cultivator of gods, he still wants to minimize contact with other blood sacrificers.
It can reduce the risk of him being exposed: if anyone knows that he is an immortal cultivator or a heretic, the temple will definitely send him to the stake.
So he casually threw the blood sacrifice order into the no-abandonment commandment, walked out of the small cave casually, and continued walking deep into the Qi forest.
Qishulin covers an area of hundreds of miles, and it is difficult to get out without two or three days.
What's more, he didn't walk wholeheartedly, but walked a few steps. Suddenly he lowered his head and pulled up a small grass from the root of the tree: "Oh, it turns out to be fish bile grass, a first-class medicinal material that can clear away heat and detoxify. Look at the color.
, I’m afraid it’s been hundreds of years, right?”
Medicinal materials depend on their age. The longer the age, the better the efficacy of the medicinal materials; and some medicinal materials can be upgraded to a certain level after a certain age. These are all described in detail in "The Encyclopedia of Alchemy", Zhang Qizai
Connect knowledge with practice.
Naturally, the only fish gallbladders in the woods are fenugreek. Zhang Qi walked all the way and picked some: Atractylodes, Ganoderma lucidum, Angelica sinensis, Di Dingzhi, Tougulan, etc., and all of them were about a hundred years old, at the first level.
Among the medicinal materials, it is also considered outstanding.
So he walked for a whole afternoon after climbing over this small mountain peak, which was only tens of feet high. When it was getting late, he walked to the north of the hill and found a rocky nook to shelter from the wind, where he spent the night.
We continued on the next day, still collecting herbs while walking. By noon, the herbs had piled up into a hill in Wuqijie.
Before I finished eating a piece of Lingmai cake, a flock of black crows suddenly flew across the sky.
This group of flying birds is very complex, including sparrows, wild pigeons, orioles, woodpeckers, turtledoves, owls, etc. They are flying all the way, and they are still calling, and the sound is quite alarming, as if there is some evil beast behind them.
Chase.
Zhang Qi stood up suddenly. He didn't finish swallowing the Lingmai cake in his mouth and almost choked to death.
The birds fluttered away, but a group of small animals rushed over along the mountain bend. They were all rabbits, pheasants, squirrels and other herbivorous first-order monsters. They were also making various noises.
He yelled and ran past, but didn't even look at Zhang Qi.
Zhang Qi smoothly held the spear in his hand: This was a warning to him. There must be some danger behind these little birds and beasts!
However, this warning seemed to come a little late. He had just been running along the path down the mountain for half a quarter of an hour when he heard a loud roar behind him!
This long roar was distant and violent, but for the moment I couldn't tell what kind of roar it was from a monster.
The hair on Zhang Qi's body stood up. He could hear that this monster was approaching him quickly!
There was no way to escape! He looked around quickly, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he ran all the way to the side of the road and hid behind a big rock.
It turned out that the location he was in was a clearing in the forest, and there were a few large rocks taller than a person standing beside the path.
Just after hiding it, I heard another angry tiger roar!
