"Hmph!" Although Wen Xiang was not happy that Taoist Wuwei was picky, he went to the kitchen and fried a poached egg for him, "Hey, eat it, eggs and soy milk are the most nutritious."

"Well, thank you." Taoist Wuwei narrowed his eyes with a smile. He had already discovered that Wen Xiang is the typical hard-faced and soft-hearted person who speaks duplicity. He clearly says no, but his body is very honest.

"Just saying thank you is useless, you wash the dishes."

"Okay, okay, no problem." Taoist Wuwei is not the kind of person who "a gentleman doesn't go near the kitchen". He also has to work in Sanqingshan, so there is no psychological pressure at all.

After Wen Xiang arranged tasks for Taoist Wuwei, she patted her ass and left. Today she will start making incense.

Before, when Wen Xiang stayed at Changqing Temple, he found that the Taoist temple used low-grade incense made of Polygala, Baihua, and Osmanthus fragrans, which was very common.

Therefore, Wen Xiang intends to make a high-end incense for Taoist temples, Buddhist halls, and studies——semi-determined.

It is rumored that lighting this incense when meditating and cultivating the Tao can greatly increase the probability of the meditator entering meditation, just as the name is semi-settling.

The production process of semi-set is simple, but the preparation of raw materials is quite labor-intensive.

The first step is to select the plump dendrobium, soak it in warm water to make it soft, and then use savage force to pestle the dendrobium into a mud.

At this moment, Wen Xiang was struggling to grind the dendrobium, but the voice of "dog skin plaster" came from the window: "What are you doing?"

Wen Xiang looked up and saw Taoist Wuwei half leaning against the window, watching with relish.

When did this guy come?Wen Xiang dropped the mortar and stick, and decided to take a rest.

"You thought this was your backyard, wandering around if you have nothing to do."

"Your brother said, you must make me feel at home. From this point of view, isn't this my backyard?"

Never seen such a brazen person before, Wen Xiang choked speechlessly: "Why don't you contact the king?"

"Compared to the king, I care more about you."

"Hmph, glib tongue." Wen Xiang didn't believe it.

"What do you do with this medicinal material?" Wuwei Taoist will not stop until he achieves his goal.

"Make incense."

"You really know how to make spices? Who taught you? Could it be a dream technique?"

"Bingo, you got it right."

"Hehe." Now it was Taoist Wuwei's turn to be speechless.

Seeing that Taoist Wuwei couldn't be driven away, Wen Xiang had no choice but to recruit the young man on the spot: "You came at the right time, you will do this job."

"I'm a guest, why should I do it?"

"Then do you want to eat?" Wen Xiang hit the snake seven inches.

"You're ruthless." Daoist Wuwei reluctantly took over the work of Dendrobium.

In fact, Taoist Wuwei is still a little interested in making incense. He found that there are too many incredible things about Wenxiang, so wouldn't it be more interesting to observe closely?

Wen Xiangcai didn't care what Taoist Wuwei had in mind, and started processing other raw materials instead, grinding the crystallized and purified dipterocarp and the shaved agarwood into fine powders.

"Could it be agarwood?" Taoist Wuwei was very familiar with this fragrance.

"It's agarwood and dipterocarp."

Taoist Wuwei knew that agarwood and dipterocarp were precious spices, not something that ordinary people could afford.

So the curious baby asked again: "Where does this fragrant wood come from?"

It's time to make things up again, how should we make it up to be reasonable? Wen Xiang's worry, why don't you just pretend that you don't hear it.

She turned around and mixed the two spices in a certain proportion and poured them into the iron medicine mill, then pushed the iron wheel back and forth vigorously, pretending to be busy.

It's true that Wen Xiang is going to pretend to be deaf and stupid, but unfortunately, her opponent is Taoist Wuwei.

Wuwei Taoist is the kind of person who "even if you are buried three feet in the ground, I will dig you out", how could he let her get away with it: "Hey, what do I ask you?"

"Why are you asking so much? Is it related to you with a dime?" Wen Xiang was upset.

"Hey, of course it has something to do with it. Not only does it have something to do with it, but it also has a lot to do with it. For example, is this something stolen? If so, wouldn't I be responsible for reporting it?"

Hehe, I have never seen a person who can slander so freshly and refinedly, Wen Xiang was convinced: "Stop slandering good people, there is nothing good on this Yunxi Mountain, a few fragrant trees are nothing."

"I picked it up on Yunxi Mountain again?"

"In the first place." Wen Xiang's righteousness was inviolable, and then he quickly changed the subject, "Hurry up, I'm waiting to use it."

Taoist Wuwei pounded the mortar mechanically, with a thoughtful expression on his face, not knowing what he was thinking.

With the help of Taoist Wuwei, who has been single for 18 years, Dendrobium was successfully crushed into mud.

Wen Xiang then wrapped the dendrobium with gauze to filter out the sticky juice, and instructed Taoist Wuwei to dry the dendrobium in a casserole over a slow fire and grind it into a fine powder.

Finally, the dendrobium viscous juice, dendrobium fine powder, agarwood and dipterocarp are thoroughly mixed and fully stirred to make a semi-finished product.

The last step is to fill the semi-finished product into a moiré-shaped tubular mold, press it tightly into a column, and then demould it to complete the finished product.

The two worked hard for a day, and finally harvested ten tubes of semi-fixed incense, each about an inch high,
Judging from the appearance alone, there are auspicious clouds lingering around, which is quite auspicious.

How is it actually?I have to smell it and smell it. At this time, the incense burner I bought before will come in handy.

Light a small corner of the semi-fixed incense, place it firmly on the base of the incense burner, and then close the lid.

After a while, wisps of white smoke curled up from the furnace, and the semi-fixed fragrance slowly dissipated along with the white smoke, filling the entire space.

The first smell is a faint sweetness, which penetrates gently from the nasal cavity, slowly condenses and extends to the root of the tongue, and then gradually rises to the brain. The fragrance is strong enough to refresh the sleepy person.

Smelling it again, the sweetness is mixed with a sense of tranquility and coolness, like the aroma of grass under the dew in the morning, fresh and cold, it makes people feel peaceful and calm.

As the fragrance becomes stronger, you can also gently turn the stove cover to adjust the gap. By controlling the entry of air, you can stabilize the volatilization of semi-fixed fragrance.

In addition to the unique fragrance of semi-fixed incense, another special feature is the addition of precious spices.

The agarwood and dipterocarp it uses are rare and precious fragrant woods. Their aroma comes from their own resinous components, as well as the alcoholization reaction produced after contact with various fungi in the air.

This quiet and elegant fragrance is not only a olfactory feast, but also a spiritual carnival. When one is on the scene, the whole body and mind are immersed in the indescribable joy and quiet pleasure, as if the lost soul has been found. Temporary salvation.

Wen Xiang closed his eyes, let his body and mind be bathed in the smoke, and quietly felt the charm of Ban Ding.
