Chapter 82: Alchemy
Out of the Feng Shui Specialized Shop, Fatty loaded the Dan Furnace in the car, something as precious as this, he didn't dare to load it into the trunk, this is something that Ye Jiannan still approves of, now Ye Jiannan realizes that Fatty is more meticulous than the average person at certain times.
"Master, there are other materials, I see that feng shui specialized stores also have them, why don't you buy them all at once?" Fatty asked as he sat on the car.
He was just about to praise Fatty for a couple of sentences, but ended up asking such a pedestrian question, Ye Jiannan could only bitterly reply, "Because those who do our line of work must maintain a sense of mystery, even if they are peers!"
"So esoteric, do you then run to buy other items elsewhere so that you are mysterious!" Fatty asked.
Qin Shuang also laughed and explained, "If you buy all the materials in one place, do you think others will guess what kind of dan you want to refine?"
"En, like this, then didn't Master say that our secret formula is the only one in the world, so how can others guess it?" Fatty continued to pursue.
"Hehe, fatty, if others can guess it, there's nothing mysterious about it!" Ye Jiannan glanced at Fatty, "Drive, I'll tell you what's going on on the way!"
On the road, Qin Shuang and Ye Jiannan together helped the fatty solve his doubts, and when the fatty learned about it, he marveled, "So it's because you're afraid of others being curious to follow, I know!"
But just then, Ye Jiannan suddenly raised his head, swept a glance from the rearview mirror and laughed, "Fatty, out of the city!"
"Ah, aren't we going to the Taoist Culture Center?" Fatty said in astonishment.
Qin Shuang glanced at Ye Jiannan and saw Ye Jiannan's grave expression, so she pinched Fatty, "If you're told to go, you go, why so much nonsense!"
"Oh, oh!" Fatty answered the promise, he looked at the navigation, found a more remote road, and flew all the way out of the city.
Arriving outside the city, Ye Jiannan got off the car, stood on the ground, looked at the sky, pinched a hand trick in his hand, and silently recited an incantation in his mouth, "Break!"
Right at this moment, a paper man suddenly appeared in the sky, the size of a fist, with flames rising from its body.
Qin Shuang sucked in a breath of cool air and looked at the slowly falling paper man, "We're being followed!"
Fatty blinked his eyes and didn't say anything for a long time, in fact, he only realized now that Ye Jiannan was already far from being comparable to him and Qin Frost, just like this time, the paper man tracking, he didn't find it, even Qin Frost didn't find it, enough to see Ye Jiannan's strength, He began to admire Ye Jiannan in his heart.
"Master, then where are we going next?" Fatty asked.
"To Clothing City, to buy you a set of clothes, giggle, it's cheap!" Ye Jiannan said and got into the car.
"Buy clothes?" The two were surprised for a while, and followed into the car.
Once in the car, Qin Shuang skimmed her lips and asked, "Brother Jiannan, how did you find the paper man?"
Paper man tracking is one of the eighteen types of tracking in the Maoshan Tuji, generally tracking ghosts, not people, except that a person will be tracked by a paper man if they have Yin blood on their body.
"Yin blood again, could it be on Fatty's body?" Qin Shuang covered her mouth and laughed when she recalled the old Tang family mansion.
"Exactly, when we were leaving, Fatty took the box from me, at that time we were already outside the door of the Feng Shui specialized store, then that young lady ran out to help Fatty take the box, when she took the box, she tapped on Fatty's shoulder, at that time I suspected that something was wrong… … "Ye Jiannan explained.
Fatty suddenly braked sharply, and Ye Jiannan and Qin Frost were momentarily unprepared and almost hit their heads.
Qin Shuang roared, "Fatty, can you say hello before braking?"
At this time, but see the fat man did not say a word, hands and feet, took off the cotton coat, threw out of the window: "Grandma, how can I be so unlucky?"
Ye Jiannan laughed loudly, "Fatty, that thing can't be gotten off unless you take it all off!"
"Take it all off, what's the big no here!" Fatty said, the wool sweater also took off, then, the only remaining threadbare clothes all off, threw out of the window.
"Hahaha ……" Qin Shuang laughed up and down, paralyzed in the car.
Don't think that Ye Jiannan is teasing the fat man, in fact, this kind of processed, as a tracking powder Yin blood, as long as the contact with the clothes, can be drilled in, soon it is a large area of the location stained with Yin blood, washing can not be washed off, unless the clothes are thrown.
Qin Frost almost laughed for ten minutes, about to enter the city, she only gritted her teeth to hold back, just there is still a little puzzled, then asked Ye Jiannan: "Then how do you see the paper doll ah?"
"Although the paper doll cast a spell, but every ten minutes interval, it will appear once the figure, as long as pay attention to the point, how can you not see it?" Ye Jiannan returned.
……
After entering the city, Qin Frost helped the fat man to buy a set of clothes, not to mention Qin Frost's eyes, actually even the fat man's clothes are looking for so personalized, wear it both fit and handsome, Ye Jiannan can not help but sigh: "Qin Frost, you really good eyesight, some other day to help me buy a set of it too?"
"Uh…… have to ask for a tip!" Qin Frost said back.
After buying the clothes, Fatty put on his new clothes, and the three of them drove to the Taoist Culture Hall.
Taoist Culture Hall is usually a place for warlocks to buy special items, there are always one or two in a city, but in a county or something, it's not a chain store, like this one they went to now, it's a national chain store, with a full range of things used by all kinds of warlocks in it, but Ye Jiannan is also clear that this kind of store won't have any good things, take the dan furnace for example, he chose to go to a feng shui specialized store that's small compared to the Taoist Culture Hall, and also Not going to the Taoist Culture Hall, such a famous place, even if a treasure appeared, it would have long been bought by a warlock, the advantage of a national chain, is that if a certain store has a treasure, the whole country can know about it and can buy it.
And the materials for alchemy, these things go to the Taoist Culture Center, it is more comprehensive, only what you do not know, there is no thing that can not be bought! Of course, apart from secret recipes like Ye Jiannan's, there are very few secret recipes in the world that people know about!
Taoist Culture Center is relatively large, the whole setup and supermarkets, a variety of strange and bizarre things, Ye Jiannan three people picked what they need, I can't imagine yin and yang grass, Yin and yin grass also have, they bought together, but it saves the trouble of going up to the mountains to collect.
Then finally only sheep embryo is left, such a thing in the Taoist Culture Center can not be bought, enough to see the formula of the rare, but it is a common thing, Ye Jiannan three people bought a pregnant sheep, will be killed, to take its embryo, the material so put together the whole, that night, took over the three business, the ghost oil is also enough quantity, just short of the final alchemy of the step.
The next day, Ye Jiannan began to refine pills, closed the door for fear of outsiders coming in and interfering, the three of them followed the steps in the book and began to refine the yin tonic pills.
The first step and the crucial step was the fire, giving this honorable and great task to Fatty.
Fatty carried a box of wooden incense, all of which were air-dried and could be burned when lit, and it was commonly used in general offerings to the gods, with a more fragrant flavor.
Fatty used a lighter to light the wooden incense, which made a crackling sound, and then put it into the Dan furnace.
In more than ten minutes, the entire Dan furnace turned reddish red, Ye Jiannan saw that the fire was almost ready, so he added mercury to it.
Then he put the lid of the alchemy furnace and kept heating it until he heard the mercury boiling up, and the temperature should have reached 356.7 degrees, as this was the boiling point of mercury.
Ye Jiannan tested the temperature with a thermometer just to make sure that there was no problem with the temperature, and the result was also exactly the boiling point of mercury, following which he took out the ghost oil from a box and added it to it.
After putting the lid on, to wait for the mercury to melt all the ghost oil into liquid, after about ten minutes, open the lid, the crystallized ghost oil could no longer be seen.
Took out a glass rod, stirred the mixture of mercury and ghost oil, and then put the sheep embryo into it, and continued to stir with the rod.
At this time, the mercury was already seen to start evaporating, a wisp of smoke, the three of them put on the masks prepared in advance to prevent mercury poisoning, and then added the ganoderma lucidum into it, and after stirring for another ten minutes or so, the liquid in the dan furnace had already become viscous.
After adding the Gathering Yin Grass and Yin Yang Grass into it, its effect is mainly to remove yang and preserve yin, it is the most important part of the alchemy, after adding it, in the process of stirring, there is yang qi constantly flowing out, but the yin qi is well preserved, so a stirring until no more fusion of the solid existence can be seen, and the cover is put on.
"Whew!" Ye Jiannan took a deep breath, the whole process is not very difficult, but because of the first time, some clumsiness, some nervousness, at this time the probability of success is already close to half, just short of the last step, he sat down on the bench and drank two mouthfuls of water.
Qin Shuang had been standing on the side to watch, at this time was recalling the entire alchemy process, as well as the sequence of adding materials.
However, right at this moment, a knock sounded at the door, the three of them were a little surprised at the same time, in this metropolis, they hadn't been socializing with anyone, there shouldn't be anyone coming!
After waiting for about three minutes, the knocking sound remained, it seemed that someone had really come to look for them, Ye Jiannan sighed, "Qin Shuang, follow me to the upstairs to refine the pills, Fatty go and open the door, don't disturb if there's nothing!"
After the instruction, Ye Jiannan picked up the alchemy furnace, Qin Frost carried the box with the wood incense upstairs.
Fatty saw that the two had already entered the house before he went to open the door. The moment the fat man opened the door, he said in horror, "Buy cake, how could this happen?"
In front of him, a teenager was dying, even the strength to make a sound was gone, his whole body was covered in blood, next to him lay a woman, the woman's belly was bulbous and exposed, it looked like she was about to give birth, and there was blood flowing out between her legs.
"Buy cake, about to give birth not to go to the hospital, come to us to do what, we have not a midwife!" Fatty yelled.
Hearing the fat man's voice, the teenager raised his head, "Save her …… Save her ……" said, and then fainted.
The fat man suddenly shocked: "This …… is not Wang Yang, then who is that woman, how so big belly?"
With curiosity, the fat man approached to take a look, stunned: "Buy cake, this is not that Qianer it, this belly grows faster than blowing!"
