Chapter 1504 I Just Like Your Shameless Look
"Senior brother, how many pills can you get for these?" Jiang Hao looked at Yu Heng expectantly.
"Yanfeng, Shao Yi, you are responsible for handling these genius treasures. Leave the snake tendons, snake skins and red scorpion shells to your junior brother, and keep the rest." Old Taoist Yu Heng ordered his disciples.
"Yes, Master." Two middle-aged Taoist priests stepped forward and responded.
After Master Yu Heng finished his instructions, he looked at Jiang Hao and said, "Junior brother, come with me."
Jiang Hao knew that the climax was coming, and followed Yu Heng happily. Not long after, the two of them arrived at the backyard. Yu Heng waved his sleeves gently at the stone wall in front, and a passage appeared in the stone wall. He stepped in. Jiang Hao followed closely.
Jiang Hao discovered that they had arrived at a huge cave with luminous pearls hanging on the walls. The cave was divided into many stone chambers. The stone chambers were engraved with seal scripts, which said alchemy room, medicinal materials room, elixir room, etc., to name a few.
Old Taoist Yu Heng took Jiang Hao to the elixir room. Jiang Hao saw several rows of wooden shelves with many jade bottles placed on them.
"Junior brother has read the alchemy book, so he should know the functions of various elixirs. I will introduce these elixirs to you one by one now."
Jiang Hao knew that Master Yu Heng was teaching him, so he immediately concentrated his attention and listened carefully.
"What is placed here is the Spirit-Gathering Pill, which is suitable for monks in the foundation-building period to improve their cultivation. This is the Bigu Pill. If you take one pill, you can go without eating for ten days. This is the Spirit-Feeding Pill, which is specially used to raise and cultivate spirit beasts. This is Healing pills are used to heal injuries. This is the Zhuyan pill, which can keep a person's appearance. Although it cannot maintain youthfulness, it can delay aging. "
"This is the Hundred Poison Pill. This is not for eating, but for attacking. The pill I refined is made from hundreds of poisons. It is extremely toxic and can poison a strong person in the Golden Pill realm."
Jiang Hao's eyes lit up and he thought this was a good thing.
Old Taoist Yu Heng kept introducing them to Jiang Hao. Jiang Hao took out the elixirs to check their color and smell, and he had a more intuitive understanding of these elixirs.
"Senior brother, what kind of elixir can I get in exchange for those things?" Jiang Hao asked with a smile.
Old Taoist Yu Heng turned around and looked at Jiang Hao with a smile on his face, "Junior brother, if you need anything, just take it yourself."
Jiang Hao was stumped for a moment. He wasn't afraid of bargaining, but he felt a little embarrassed when he was so easy to talk to.
Jiang Hao is a reserved person.
"Senior brother, you also know that I am learning alchemy. Can you give me some of each so that I can use it as a reference? Commonly used elixirs such as the Spirit-Gathering Pill and the Bigu Pill. Please give me more of them. High-end elixirs such as the Great Return Pill. Just give me one." Jiang Hao looked at Yu Heng with a smile.
Old Taoist Yu Heng looked at Jiang Hao, a smile suddenly appeared on his face, and he said leisurely, "Most people who practice Taoism follow their nature and have few desires. If they follow their nature, they will not fight, and if they don't fight, they will have no desires. Peace is the right thing for the world. The way of peace is the way of nature. , so conducive to practice.”
"But there are drawbacks to not fighting. The Dao sect is not the only one in the world who does not fight. How can the Tao sect prosper and how can we get rid of evildoers? The Tao sect really needs people with the character of Junior Brother."
How could Jiang Hao not understand the meaning of Yu Heng's words?
In a simple sentence, what Yu Heng Lao Dao means is, ‘I just like your shameless look’.
Jiang Hao bowed slightly and said, "Thank you, senior brother, for the generous gift."
Old Taoist Yu Heng smiled and said, "I will instruct Yanfeng and the others to prepare for junior brother later. Since you want to learn alchemy, I will prepare a furnace of pills today. Junior brother will come with me and I can explain the process of alchemy to you."
Jiang Hao suddenly became interested. On-site observation is the best opportunity to learn, "What kind of elixir do you want to refine, senior brother?"
"Huanglongdan is a kind of elixir that is used by Golden elixir realm monks to enhance their cultivation. I can open this elixir. I have to thank my junior brother. The giant python sent by my junior brother is the main material for refining Huanglongdan." Yu Heng The truth is true.
Old Taoist Yu Heng was preparing for elixir refining. Jiang Hao followed closely and observed carefully. Refining elixirs is a very tedious matter. All kinds of medicinal materials must be prepared first and all ready for use. However, this process only took two days. .
In the past two days, Master Yu Heng explained to Jiang Hao a lot of knowledge about preparing medicinal materials, not just Huanglong Dan. Jiang Hao benefited a lot from talking about whatever came to mind.
Two days later, he started refining the elixir. Taoist Yu Heng continued to explain while refining, how to activate the flame, the strength of the temperature, the order of administering the elixir, how to extract the spiritual energy in the medicinal materials, how to condense it into elixirs, etc.
Seven days passed in a flash. On this day, a puff of white smoke was seen popping out of the alchemy furnace. Master Yuheng immediately woke up from the state of meditation with his eyes closed. His body sitting on the futon flew up, and with a fierce wave of the fly whisk in his hand, the alchemy furnace was The top lid popped up with a bang.
Swish, brush, brush~!
A stream of yellow elixirs the size of marbles flew out of the cauldron. The old Taoist had a gourd magical weapon in his hand. He sucked on the elixirs, and all dozens of elixirs were sucked into the gourd.
"Done!"
The top cover of the alchemy furnace fell back automatically, and the old Taoist smiled and said to Jiang Hao.
"Congratulations, senior brother." Jiang Hao smiled and congratulated.
The old Taoist took out a jade bottle from his sleeve, poured two Huanglong Pills from the gourd into the jade bottle, and the jade bottle flew towards Jiang Hao.
"I'll give you these two. You already have all the pills I have in my hand now. You'll learn here for the time being. You can leave and come back to me if you have any questions in the future." Old Taoist Yu Heng said.
This old man was so straightforward that he immediately drove people away.
However, Jiang Hao has completed his plan and gained a huge harvest. He has obtained all the more than 20 kinds of elixirs refined here by Lao Dao, and it is time to say goodbye.
"Thank you, senior brother, for teaching me the elixir. I will leave first," Jiang Hao said with cupped hands.
"Go!" The Taoist closed his eyes.
After leaving Yuheng Courtyard, Jiang Hao returned to his own courtyard and spent two days sorting out the knowledge of alchemy in his mind. When he got up this morning, he planned to go to Uncle Kaiyang to learn about refining knowledge and see if the remaining materials could be exchanged for a few magical instruments.
Just as Jiang Hao was about to leave, he suddenly had an idea and looked at the sea of clouds in the distance. Not long after, a paper crane flew through the sea of clouds to him and circled around him twice. Jiang Hao stretched out his hand and the paper crane landed in his palm.
The paper crane immediately made a sound when he activated his spiritual power.
"My dear, I miss you so much"
It was the voice of the little fox. Jiang Hao smiled. The little fox told Jiang Hao that she missed him very much and hoped that he would return soon. She heard that Jiang Hao was practicing in the Laoshan Immortal Gate and hoped that he would practice with peace of mind and not delay his practice for her. The contradictions and entanglements revealed the woman's mentality.
There was nothing important in the letter, just a love letter, and the flying crane expressed his longing for love.
Put the paper crane into the space and keep it well. As long as the paper crane still has spiritual power, it can be kept for a long time. Love letters cannot be thrown away.
Then Jiang Hao flew to the mountain where Brother Kaiyang was and visited him. The old Taoist Kaiyang was still cold and indifferent.
"What do you want to do?"
"Learn to refine weapons."
"Some of my disciples have studied with me for decades. You can ask them first. If they don't know, come to me again."
"Brother, I want to exchange some magic weapons." Jiang Hao said, putting out the miscellaneous things in the space and piling them on the ground again.
The old Taoist Kaiyang looked at these things and nodded, "Yes, there are indeed many good things. What do you want to exchange?"
"Is there a purple gold gourd?" Jiang Hao asked.
He was going to exchange a few purple gold gourds, not for himself, but for the City God's men. The City God mainly faced ghosts, and the purple gold gourd was specially used to capture ghosts. If the people in the City God's mansion could be equipped with purple gold gourds, their work efficiency would definitely be greatly improved.
The old Taoist Kaiyang looked at the materials and said lightly: "You can exchange three purple gold gourds."
Jiang Hao nodded immediately, "Changed."
"Okay, you go find Liu Kuo, he will take care of the basics of refining and changing magic weapons." The old Taoist said and turned to look at the formation behind him.
Jiang Hao smiled and left.
As soon as he left the middle courtyard, a middle-aged Taoist priest came up and bowed to Jiang Hao, "Liu Kuo greets Master Jiang Hao, Master has just sent me a message, I have prepared it for Master Uncle." He took out three purple gold gourds from his sleeves.
These purple gold gourds are exactly the same as Jiang Hao's small gourds, the only difference is that these purple gold gourds are brand new, but Jiang Hao's is already covered with patina.
"If you want to learn how to refine weapons, why don't you go to the weapon refining room and practice refining yourself? That's how our master taught us." Liu Kuo said respectfully.
Practice makes perfect, and refining weapons is hands-on knowledge.
From that day on, Jiang Hao walked into the weapon refining room and started with low-level magic weapons. Liu Kuo, as a mentor, carefully guided him.
In this way, Jiang Hao stayed in the weapon refining room for a month or so. In this month, he learned a lot.
He was able to refine some simple magic weapons and understand the basic principles of refining. Although he wanted to continue studying, he knew that he couldn't be too obsessed with these things.
After saying goodbye to Senior Brother Kaiyang, Jiang Hao walked on the mountain road and found that snowflakes were falling from the sky. Soon, the distant mountains were covered with a layer of silver.
Jiang Hao summoned the flying sword and stepped on it. He flew to the Wanghai Pavilion, which was the mountain pavilion where Xuanji Taoist invited Jiang Hao to join Laoshan.
He put out a cushion and sat on it to enjoy the snow, looking at the distant mountains. In the snow, the whole Laoshan Mountain seemed a little hazy. The buildings were looming in the rolling clouds and mist, making it look like a fairyland.
Slowly,
Jiang Hao entered a state of being and not being, like a dream, and his spiritual power began to run wildly.
The snow was falling.
The clouds were flying.
The sky gradually darkened, the snow stopped, the clouds dispersed, and a full moon was revealed. The moonlight was bright and shining on the pine forest on the top of the mountain covered with white snow. The mountains and rivers became so holy.
It was dawn.
Purple air came from the east.
The sun rose to the sky, and the snowflakes melted. "The cold air was frozen like pearls, and it disappeared when it saw the sunlight."
Jiang Hao sat in the pavilion motionless, and three days passed in a flash.
Taoist Xuanji came here, and Taoist Yuheng came here too. They just told others not to disturb him, and didn't care about him. Practicing Taoism is his own business, and others can't help at this time.
Another two days passed. On this day, Jiang Hao suddenly stood up from the futon, shook his clothes, and a smile appeared on his face. His cultivation had improved again, and his mind was more perfect. He had reached the state of great perfection in foundation building.
He could prepare to condense the golden elixir.
