Holding the document in hand, he entered the mountain gate of Danlunzong. As soon as he entered, a deacon disciple of the sect asked: "What's the matter with our guest?"
Wu Sheng raised the white silk in his hand. The deacon disciple saw it and nodded: "Turn left, second door, and go up to the high platform."
Wu Sheng was about to ask around and ask what the so-called "Cheng Dan" meant when a nobleman from Chu State rushed in from behind: "Quickly, please see the Grand Master!"
The deacon's disciple hurriedly approached him: "Judge, what's the matter?"
The man said: "It's urgent, hurry up!"
The deacon disciple did not dare to ask any more questions and quickly led him away in another direction.
Wu Sheng looked back and saw that the man was wearing a scarlet robe, which was the official uniform of Dr. Chu. He didn't know what was in a hurry for him, but he came over without even changing his official uniform. He seemed to have seen him vaguely.
Judges?
After pondering for a moment, he suddenly remembered that when he was at Leigong Mountain, he and Shuangcha joined forces to rescue people. At that time, there were two Chu generals standing in front of the Mu Taoren's cave. Shuangcha had introduced that the man with a plain robe and jade belt, named Sun Jiezi, was not Ying.
Master of the capital?
It was far away at the time and I couldn't see clearly, but let alone it, it seemed to be somewhat similar.
Although Sun Jiezi had never seen him and was not afraid of showing up in front of him, he still felt a little pressure in his heart. Wu Sheng did not dare to delay in front of the door any longer, quickened his pace, turned left into the second gate, and followed a stone path in the forest.
Go forward and pass through a half-moon gate, and you will see a five-foot-high platform in front of you.
There were already twenty or thirty people sitting on the high platform, listening to an elder who looked in his fifties or sixties, and there were several disciples waiting at the foot of the stage.
As soon as Wu Sheng showed his head, dozens of pairs of eyes glanced over at him. Wu Sheng's breathing was stagnant, and he covered his face and tried to leave, but it was too late.
The elder shouted on the high platform and asked: "Who is coming?"
Wu Sheng had no choice but to lower his head and answer: "Songyang alchemist Wu Sheng was ordered by the king to present the elixir. I accidentally took the wrong route. I apologize!" As he spoke, he stepped back, preparing to exit the moon gate and run away.
But the elder said: "You are right, it is here...why are you so late?"
Wu Sheng couldn't figure out the situation, so he said bravely: "Songyang County is far away..." He originally wanted to say that he was delayed on the way, but suddenly he didn't know what to say, because he had never heard of where Songyang County in Chu State was.
, and I didn’t have time to ask, what if it’s very close?
The elder frowned and scolded: "The road is far away, but Wang Ling arrived early, leaving enough time! Furthermore, among the counties of Lugao, Lingyang, Juchao and Zhaoguan, which one is closer to you?"
Wu Sheng was Weiwei and did not dare to refute, so he bowed his head and admitted defeat.
The elder said: "Come up to the stage and present the elixir you refined."
Is this what Wu Shengxin said? Why was he presenting it? As he walked up the steps, he pondered over and over in his mind whether to present it with the original owner's elixir or use his own.
Time was tight and I had no time to judge. I quickly came to the elder. He still presented the black ginseng pills and Jingning pills on the original owner. Let's be honest first and don't make trouble by being too clever.
He raised his head and looked at the elder in front of him. Unable to confirm whether he was the great alchemist Kuangtian Mu, he said: "Senior, please test the elixir."
Someone sitting down below to listen to the Dharma interrupted and said, "This is the Third Supreme Master."
Wu Sheng still didn't know what "Third High Master" meant, but he confirmed that this person was not the Great Alchemist Kuangtian Wu, and he couldn't help but feel disappointed: "Yes, meet the Third High Master."
The elder spread out the two bottles of elixir in his palm, glanced at it and threw it aside, scolding: "Is this the elixir you made? Idiot! Idiot! Is this an elixir? This is filth, dried
Filth!"
After scolding Wu Sheng, he turned to the people sitting on the stage and said: "No wonder the war in Jiuzi is difficult and the nobles suffered heavy casualties. Do you alchemists all make elixirs like this? If you use inferior elixirs to support the army, the battle can still be fought well.
?”
He pointed to the last row and said to Wu Sheng, "Take a seat!"
Wu Sheng sat at the end with his head lowered and a confused look on his face, and continued to listen to the lecture from the Third Master: "Your Majesty is wise, so I have ordered you to go to the Ancient Dragon Mountain to listen to the Dharma and learn elixirs. I already know all about the elixirs you presented.
It lasts for three months. If you can't improve the quality to at least the first level, don't even think about me. From now on, Sikong Mansion will issue instructions to all counties that the elixirs you refine are not allowed to be purchased. Do you understand me clearly?"
Everyone was dejected, and they all said in unison: Improving the level of the elixir is not easy, and the deadline is three months. If you can't do it after three months, your job will be ruined. What should you do then? People present asked themselves, at least once
Most people feel hopeless.
Wu Sheng did not have this problem. Instead, he listened attentively with his ears pricked up. What this Third Master taught today was the most basic thing, that is, how to distinguish and judge elixirs. I guess he was extremely disappointed with the people here.
Only then did the most basic common sense become popular again, but it gave Wu Sheng an advantage.
Wu Sheng accidentally entered this field, and it can be said that he is an out-and-out wild man. The distinction between elixirs is only the most superficial top grade, middle grade, and low grade. The Third High School Normal School popularized this theoretical basic course, which was right for him.
So I listened with great interest.
Until today, Wu Sheng didn't know that among the three grades of elixirs, they were divided into three grades. After the same elixir was refined, the characteristics of the elixirs were classified into which grades. The three senior masters described it one by one.
Based on this, Wu Sheng compared the elixirs he had refined one by one, and was very pleased to find that they were basically all first-rate. Of course, there were also second-rate or third-rate elixirs, but that was due to the elixir recipe, plus he had deliberately done it.
.
For example, Winter Bamboo Shoots Pill, well, it is now called Sheng Gu Dan. Sheng Gu Dan No. 1 and No. 2 correspond to the second class and third class respectively. The reason why Sheng Gu Dan No. 1 is second class is because of the inherent limitations of the elixir.
This kind of spiritual elixir will never be of the first level. After subtracting the spiritual materials, the No. 2 Bone-Making Pill will be of the third level.
At the same time, in the process of explaining the grades, the Third High School Teacher also quoted from other sources and rambled on, allowing Wu Sheng to understand the whole story of the presentation of the elixir and the identity of the Third High School Teacher himself.
The root cause of everything was the Battle of Jiuzi. The battle lasted too long, and the Chu army had obvious problems with the supply of elixirs. A large number of third-grade and even inferior elixirs flooded the military camp, causing the army's sergeants and soldiers to complain.
Therefore, Yin Quwan sent a letter to the King of Chu to summon the alchemists from the eastern counties of Chu State who were making elixirs for the Chu army this time to Yingdu to join the alchemy sect and improve their alchemy skills. Some counties came with three or four people, and some counties only had
Everyone is recommended by the county and gathered here.
Alchemy is the foundation of an alchemy master or even a sect of alchemy. He is willing to teach alchemy to the stupid eastern alchemists. The great alchemist Sangtian Wu is really devoted to the benefit of the Chu country. From this, we can also know that the alchemy sect
How close are the connections with the upper echelons of Chu State.
The person in charge of teaching is the third master. The third master is the third master of the Alchemy Sect, named Jing Yue. He is the third disciple of the great alchemist Sang Tianwu. He is an alchemist in the realm of refining gods. His two
The two senior brothers are called the Grand Master and the Second Master.
Although it sounds like Jing Yue, the third high school teacher, has not yet reached the advanced level of god refining, Wu Sheng was deeply impressed by what he said today, and it can be said that he has gained a lot.
Therefore, when the lecture was over, Wu Sheng prostrated himself respectfully, and together with the "idiots" from other counties, thanked him loudly - no matter what others thought, at least he was sincere.
Thanks to Go Early, Go Late, Go Early and Late, Xin Xitang, Cloudman, Shu Chi Bu Yan, 20190310 for the reward, and thank fellow Taoists for their monthly tickets and recommended tickets.
