Chapter 199 Dancheng Xiao Zhoutian

   "Master." Lu Xiangyi saluted respectfully.

   "Come here because of your sister?"

   "Yes, after taking the elixir from Faxing Temple, my sister's condition suddenly deteriorated, Mr. Liu and the others were helpless." Lu Xiangyi told the truth.

   "When it comes to the ability to cure diseases and save people, they are masters of Chinese medicine, above me. I have nothing to do with the people they can't save. When Siying went up the mountain, I once measured her birthday. She had a catastrophe in her life, which was a matter of life and death. I think it was this time." Li Daochang sighed slightly.

   "Then can my sister survive this disaster?" Lu Xiangyi asked hastily.

   "It's the calamity of life and death. Naturally, it is extremely difficult to overcome, and it requires great fortune. I have been thinking about it these days, and Siying's calamity still needs the help of your friend."

   "Wang An?"

   Li Daochang nodded.

   "Last time I saw him with the appearance of a heavenly man, such a person must have a great opportunity and a great fortune."

   "Isn't the Taoist chief trying to take away his fortune?"

   "Take good fortune, haha, how is it possible! How can good fortune be so easy to snatch, let alone heaven and man." Li Daochang smiled after hearing this.

   "It's not about stealing, it's about borrowing. As the saying goes, "One person ascends to the sky when he attains enlightenment." He has a great fortune, and the people around him will also have great opportunities, such as you. His cultivation base is improving, and you will also receive benefits, but sooner or later, what you have to do now is to help him as much as possible."

   "Can he save my sister?"

   "The abilities of heaven and man are beyond your imagination, and the beauty of qi is also beyond ordinary people's imagination." Li Daochang said.

   "Back then, my master had been enlightened for nearly sixty years before he understood the mysteries of it. Your friend is only a few years old, and his cultivation has reached the level he is now. What will happen in the future? Although your sister is destined to die, she doesn't look like a short-lived person. Don't be too anxious."

  Although Li Daochang said so, Lu Xiangyi was still very anxious.

   "My master used to like to sit here and watch the clouds and enlightenment. It can be seen for decades. I have been here for thirty years, but I still haven't realized my way. Xiangyi, what do these clouds look like?" The old Taoist pointed to the clouds floating in the mountains in front of him.

  Lu Xiangyi looked at the cloud in front of him, how could he be in the mood to look at the cloud now!

   "It's like life, the world is impermanent, and this cloud is also impermanent."

   "Yes, yes." Li Daochang nodded.

  On Yuxiao Mountain, Wang An has already tidied up the cave, and some tools for refining medicinal materials have also been moved over.

  He set up a pot in the cave, lit a fire, and prepared to boil medicine.

   The refining of "Yiqi Pill" does not require the kind of alchemy furnace described in the novel, but uses ancient methods to fuse the effects of various medicines and make pills.

  Some medicinal materials need to be ground into fine powder, some medicinal materials need to be boiled to make ointment, some medicinal materials need to be boiled, and only the soup is taken, and all kinds of medicinal materials are fused together to make pills.

  The water used to make elixir should be mountain spring water, which must not be polluted. During the process of making elixirs, it should not be contaminated with gold or iron, that is, it should not touch metal.

  The pots used for refining medicine can be made of ancient methods such as casserole pots and clay pots, because some Chinese medicinal materials may react with iron pots and aluminum pots during the cooking process, affecting the efficacy of the medicine.

  It would be better to use jade vessels for grinding and mixing or storing some medicinal materials. Wang An has asked Li Xinzhu to help him prepare some grinding tools made of jade.

   Li Hsin-chu was confused when he received the call from Wang An, "I've heard of jade bracelets, jade pendants, jade Guanyin, and jade Buddha. This is the first time I've heard of this jade pot. What do you use it for?"

   "Pharmaceuticals."

   "Pharmaceuticals? What kind of medicine, it requires such a high standard, tell me the size."

  Wang An agreed with Li Hsinchu on the size, and then began to process Polygonum multiflorum.

   It is not the 120-year-old Polygonum multiflorum he bought, but the large-scale breeding Polygonum multiflorum bought from a general medicinal material dealer. He plans to use these medicinal materials to practice his hands first.

  Wash with clean water first, then soak for 12 hours, wash again, wash away the impurities, drain the water, cut open, cut into pieces, dry it and then boil it with licorice, dry it after cooking, and then steam it.

  During this process, Wang An took ordinary ginseng, clasped his palms together, and stimulated his strength. After a while, he opened his palms and saw that the ginseng was broken into pieces, and some ginseng juice dripped into the bowl.

   Poria cocos is boiled into a paste by adding mountain spring water in a casserole.

  …

  [After a period of study and practice, you have gained a lot. ]

  Alchemy Alchemy (beginner and first practice): 9/999.

  "New skill?" Wang An was slightly taken aback when he saw the prompt.

  Five days later, Li Xinzhu came to the mountain with a wooden box. I found Wang An who was refining medicinal materials in the cave.

   "Are you doing alchemy?" Li Xinzhu was very curious looking at some tools in the cave. "Hey, why didn't I see the alchemy furnace?"

   "I haven't reached the point of using an alchemy furnace, and not all pills need an alchemy furnace." Wang An said with a smile.

   "I brought you what you asked for." Li Xinzhu next got a big box. After opening it, there were two small pots made of sapphire. "

"two?"

   "Does good things come in pairs? This is what you want in a hurry. If the time is shorter, if the time is longer, I can find better jade. Make this pot more beautiful."

   "That's good enough, thanks."

   "Why are you being polite to me, there are also two jasper knives, given by the master of the carving."

   Li Xinzhu was talking and looking at the pots and pans in Wang An's cave.

"What's this?"

   "Poria cocos paste, you can eat it."

   "What does it do?"

   "Strengthening the spleen and promoting dampness."

   Li Xinzhu reached out and picked a little bit to taste.

   "It's tasteless, you need to add some sugar, honey, etc."

   "This is medicine, not a dish. You can't season it at will, otherwise it will affect the efficacy of the medicine." Wang An said with a smile after hearing this.

   "Are you still ready to practice sword?" Li Xinzhu looked at the ancient sword standing aside.

   "I don't have this plan for the time being. I picked it up when I was outside." Wang Andao.

   "I picked it up, and it looks very valuable." Li Xinzhu danced a sword flower in his hand, and stabbed towards a rock beside him. The thick ancient sword tip sank into the rock without much effort.

   "Hiss, this, this is a precious sword!" Li Xinzhu looked at the ancient sword in his hand and said in surprise.

  Wang An responded, and went not far outside the cave to wash the utensils made of jade with mountain spring water.

   "It's almost ready, and then we can start preparing to make the pill."

   "When you refine the elixir, don't you have to retreat and refine it for seven to forty-nine days like Taishang Laojun, and no one can disturb you?"

   "It doesn't take that long, it's really necessary to avoid disturbance as much as possible." Wang Andao. Refining elixir requires meditation.

   "How long do you estimate?"

   "It won't take too long, maybe ten days or so will be enough." Wang Andao.

   "Then you must have a good meal before retreating to practice medicine."

   "No need, normal mind." Wang An said with a smile.

   Li Hsin-chu left without staying on the mountain for too long.

  Wang An continued to practice in the next few days. Through practicing Wang An's concocting medicinal materials during this period, his skills in refining pharmaceuticals are constantly improving and becoming more and more proficient.

  He felt that he should be able to try to make a real "Yiqi Pill".

  Before making the elixir, he prepared the firewood for the fire, dug a small pool next to the mountain spring next to the cave, and piled stones around it for easy access to water.

  After he was ready, he went down the mountain to have a full meal, bought some things, rested for a day, and then went to the mountain, and began to refine the "Yiqi Pill" according to the prescription.

  The medicinal materials used this time are all bought by him at a high price, such as wild ginseng for a century, fleece-flower root for a hundred and twenty years, Poria cocos, and Cistanche.

  He has been practicing how to handle these medicinal materials these days, and this time he handled them as carefully and seriously as if he was doing it for the first time.

   Not only because the combined value of these medicinal materials has exceeded two million, the principle of refining medicine and practicing kung fu is the same, you must be serious and sincere.

  Practice is to strengthen the body and to surpass oneself; refining medicine is to cure diseases and save lives, so there must be no sloppy.

  The first thing to deal with is the 120-year-old wild Polygonum multiflorum. This medicine needs to be processed, and it needs nine steams and nine suns, which takes the longest time.

  It is better to wash with spring water first, soak for a period of time, then wash, cook with licorice, and then steam in a pot.

   Fortunately, the sky today is very gracious and the sun is shining brightly all day long.

   After preparing the Polygonum multiflorum, he then processed the Poria cocos, cut the Poria cocos into small pieces, took the best part and boiled it slowly to make a paste.

  Fortunately, Wang An meditates on a daily basis, and his mind has long been tempered to be calm. Sitting for several days is not a problem, and there is no problem in brewing medicine.

  The ointment is temporarily stored in a jade box, and will be compatible with other medicinal materials later.

  Century-year-old ginseng was crushed into fine powder with both hands, the soup was collected, and the dry matter was ground into fine powder.

  The processing of medicinal materials one by one,

  After the Polygonum multiflorum is processed, the remaining medicinal materials must be processed within two days, and then refined into pills in the morning of the day.

  The final refining is to mix various medicines in a certain proportion.

   Monarchs, ministers and envoys,

  A variety of medicinal powders are mixed in different proportions with boiled concoctions and ointments, and slowly formed into pills.

  The sun rises and sets, day after day,

  The firewood in the cave was never extinguished for a while, and the flames were always burning.

  Twelve days later, in Wang Anyu's box, there were two elixirs with circular patterns on them, which were the colors of different medicinal materials.

  A lot of medicinal materials, after several days of hard work, only these two pills were exchanged.

   There are no visions such as Dan Chenglonghu appearing, wind and cloud changing color, but there is some unique medicinal fragrance, which floats far away.

   "Two million made of more than two million?"

  Wang An looked at the medicinal materials on the side. Not all of these medicinal materials were used, some only took the juice, and some only took the core.

   "Forget it, these two are enough."

  Wang An sealed the elixir with the pre-prepared plastic wrap, and then stored it in a jade bottle. After packing up the tools and medicinal materials in the cave, he went down the mountain.

  He returned to the mountain village and rested for three days.

  Eat well, drink well, sleep well, recharge your batteries, do Tai Chi during the day, and read a few Taoist scriptures at night.

  Three days later, he set off early, arrived at Yuxiao Mountain before the sun rose, and took the first "Yi Qi Pill".

  After the elixir entered his stomach, he didn't feel anything unusual at first, but after about ten minutes, he felt a little bloated, as if there was a ball of gas and a puddle of water in his stomach, which had nowhere to go, and the amount of that ball of gas and that puddle of water was still increasing.

  Wang An hurriedly practiced and guided, first Wu Qinxi, the feeling weakened a bit after practicing for a while, and then he felt that the true qi in the sea of ​​qi seemed to increase a little, after a while, the feeling of abdominal distension reappeared.

  Then Wang An changed the exercises to the Yi Jin Jing, and then he began to stimulate the true energy in the body to go upward along the human veins, and the true energy went up. After passing through the internal organs, it immediately strengthened.

  The elixir he ate spread out in his body, changed into a cloud, and then turned into raindrops. The original qi was like a small river, which was not even a trickle. Now it rains non-stop. When there is too much water, the stream becomes a small river, flowing happily.

  Wang An took this opportunity to mobilize the true energy to start from the lower dantian, pass through the perineum, pass through the anus, and follow the governor meridian of the spine to the tail, Jiaji and Yuzhen, to the Niwan on the top of the head, all the way up.

  Before, I didn’t have enough qi, didn’t rush in enough, and couldn’t pass the level. This time, I went up all the way, passed several levels, passed the back, came to the neck, passed the Dazhui, and then rushed upwards to open the Fengfu, such as the Baihui acupoint on the top of the head.

  Wang An decided that a stream of qi in his body went straight up from the tailbone and was about to reach the top of the head. This qi was neither hot nor cold, and it was peaceful.

  When he passed Parkway, he felt his head buzzing, and he was in a trance for a moment. He hurriedly stabilized his mind, controlled his true energy, and then went down over the top of his head. Then separate from the ears and cheeks to the bottom, use the tongue as a bridge to connect with the human veins, from top to bottom, and then enter the sea of ​​qi. This is Xiao Zhoutian.

  Wang An trembled all over, feeling an indescribable feeling.

  Before the power of the medicine was consumed, he urged the true energy to circulate again, and repeated it repeatedly. The more proficient she was in the movement, the more the true energy.

  When he opened his eyes again, the sun had already set, and the mountain was still in front of him, but when he looked closely, it was different.

  He saw the veins on the leaves tens of meters away, and he heard the sound of insects walking under the soil.

  Raise the palm of the hand, stimulated by true energy, go up along the meridian, enter the palm through the Taiyin Lung Meridian of the hand, press the palm on the stone wall, and the palm immediately sank into the rock.

  He closed his eyes and calculated silently. According to his usual practice, it would take at least a year for him to cultivate so much zhenqi.

  [After taking Yiqi Pill, the true qi in your body will be improved, your five senses will be improved, and your physical fitness will be improved. ]

  A series of prompts from the system,

   "This elixir is a good thing!"

  He didn't take the second pill while the iron was hot, he planned to wait another two days to see.

   "Suddenly feel a little hungry!"
