Don't stand in my way

Chapter 63 Alchemy Fire Room
Early the next morning, in Jingzhou City.

Wei Changsheng was strolling along Chengxi Street, looking for something. Suddenly his eyes lit up and he saw a rather exquisite three-story attic. People were coming and going, business was booming, and there was a faint scent of medicine coming from the small building. .

Baidanfang!
Looking up at the signboard, Wei Changsheng strolled in.

The layout in the attic is simple and clear, with four or five long counters divided into categories.Some were displaying various herbal elixirs, while others were displaying bottles and jars. There were some customers surrounding each counter. In a short time, four or five transactions were completed.

Wei Changsheng glanced around and walked towards the most deserted counter. Compared to the others, this counter had almost no one visiting it.

Boom boom boom!
He knocked on the counter, and a young man in gray robe emerged from under the counter. When he saw someone coming, his eyes suddenly lit up and he said with a smile, "This guest, how can I help you?"

Wei Changsheng looked at the young man. There was still some dust on his head and his eyes were groggy, as if he had just woken up. He nodded and said, "If you have a better alchemy furnace, take it out and have a look."

The young man was a little surprised, "This young master can actually make alchemy!" He said, turning around and taking down several cauldrons of different sizes from the shelf behind him.

Bang bang bang!
A row of antique and strange-looking alchemy furnaces were placed on the counter by the young man. The furnaces were heavy in weight and immediately made a crisp collision sound.

"These ding tripods are all high-quality goods collected by our store, and they are not comparable to ordinary goods." The young man's tone was quite complacent.

"This Red Yuan Cauldron has a mouth of one foot and five inches, a height of one foot and eight inches, and weighs 87 kilograms. It is made of the best red copper. Red copper is the best at conducting heat, so it is perfect for making pills."

Every time Wei Changsheng glanced at a cauldron, the young man would remember all the treasures he had learned and listed the materials, specifications and advantages one by one.

Wei Changsheng looked at these alchemy cauldrons one by one, nodded, pondered for a moment, and suddenly asked, "Can these alchemy furnaces be used to refine elixirs?"

"This," the young man's tone paused, and he said in a deep voice, "Not to mention these cauldrons, even in the entire Jingzhou City, there are not many that can be used to refine elixirs. Even if there are, most of them are treasured by major aristocratic families. "

"Why is this?!" Wei Changsheng was a little surprised.

"The firepower and pressure required to refine the elixir are very high, and the material of the elixir furnace is also very demanding. It is often made of precious spiritual materials, and the weight is astonishing. It is no different from a magic weapon, and the price is naturally ridiculously expensive. .”

The young man is a good talker, "Moreover, this kind of alchemy furnace often requires strong cultivation to heat it. When the warrior's inner energy is poured into it, it is like a mud cow pouring into the sea."

"Guests may wish to take a look at what you have in front of you. Even if you can't withstand refining elixirs to withstand earth fire, and refining some essence pills, it is definitely more than enough."

Wei Changsheng couldn't deny it, and chose the one that was neither big nor small, but the most pleasing to the eye, "That's it. In addition, there are twenty ingredients each for Jingyuan Pill, Jingqi Pill, Huiqi Pill, Buqi Pill, and Yangshen Pill. "

"The guest has good eyesight. This Ziyun Cauldron is made entirely of purple gold. Although its thermal conductivity is not as good as red copper, its ductility is definitely one of the best and can withstand stronger pressure in the furnace. Among all the alchemy furnaces in our store, It is also second to none." Seeing this, the young man was shocked, spit out lotus flowers, and praised the purple-gold alchemy furnace from the inside out.

"As for the medicinal materials, do the guests need processed semi-finished products, or unprocessed raw materials?" Seeing Wei Changsheng's expressionless expression, the young man changed the topic.

This was the first time Wei Changsheng had heard that the alchemy book obtained in the secret realm was about to be included, and he never mentioned that there was still a semi-finished product.

"What is this semi-finished product?" Puzzled, Wei Changsheng asked bluntly.

The young man was somewhat accustomed to saying, "These herbal medicines are not like elixirs. If the elixir is broken, the potency of the medicine will be greatly reduced. Herbal medicines are not the same. They are not very good-looking at best. The so-called semi-finished products are actually pre-processed and processed by various herbal medicines." Medicinal powder saves customers the time of processing it themselves.”

Wei Changsheng shook his head. It is better to learn alchemy from scratch, step by step. "There is no need for semi-finished products, and all kinds of medicinal materials can be used as they are."

"Come on, a good alchemy furnace, 3000 copies of various medicinal materials for common elixirs, and I will charge you [-] taels of silver." The young man took out his abacus, tapped it, and smiled.

"Well, there is one more thing, please let me know." Wei Changsheng nodded and said, "I wonder if there is a place in the city that provides alchemy?"

"Hey, the customer has asked the right person now. Our store is a property of the Bai Mansion, and we know everything about alchemy."

"My guest, if you go out from the west city gate and walk thirty miles, you will see a hill. Here are the alchemy places of the major families in Jingzhou City."

An hour later, Wei Changsheng, carrying large and small bags, looked at the hundred-meter-high hill in front of him.

As soon as I got close, I felt a heat wave coming from the surface. The climate in this mountain was much higher than elsewhere. According to the young man, this place was penetrated by major aristocratic families a hundred years ago, and a fire was drawn from the underground. Provide alchemy to various families.

Wei Changsheng walked very fast, and soon he reached the mountainside. A huge cave entrance came into view, more than ten feet high and four or five feet wide.

In front of the cave was a stone table with a width of [-] feet. Sitting there was a middle-aged monk, communicating with several old men one after another.

Several old men took what looked like a token from the middle-aged monk and entered the cave one after another.

Wei Changsheng's eyes flickered and he walked forward, "I've met senior."

"Huh? It turns out he is a descendant of the Wei family. No need to be polite, just call him Uncle Shi." The middle-aged monk looked at the dark patterns on Wei Changsheng's sleeves and said with a smile.

"Yes, Uncle Shi!" Wei Changsheng nodded in agreement.Looking at the middle-aged monk's clothes, he was obviously from the Bai family.

"Uncle Shi, my nephew heard that people can make elixirs here. I wonder what the process is like?"

The middle-aged monk touched his beard and said in a calm tone, "This mountain is called Chilian Peak. One hundred and eight fire chambers were dug into the peak, divided into four grades: A, B, C and D. The higher the grade, the higher the fire chamber. The higher the firepower, the more stable it is. Of course, the cost is also more expensive. If you are refining the elixir, you have to get A, B, or B to meet the demand."

Wei Changsheng waved his hand and said, "My nephew just wants to try his hand and see if he has any talent. It's enough to trouble Uncle Shi to arrange a C-grade fire room."

The middle-aged monk in the Bai Mansion looked at Wei Changsheng's large and small bags and nodded, "In that case, Fire Room 66 is still empty and unoccupied. What do you think?"

"Just follow what Uncle Shi said. I don't know how the fee is settled." Wei Changsheng raised his head and asked.

"The third-class fire room is charged on a daily basis, with one thousand taels of silver per day, and can be rented from ten days. Children of six aristocratic families can get a [-]% discount with their seals. How many days does the nephew need to rent?" The middle-aged monk's eyes lit up, why? They all look a bit money-obsessed.

Wei Changsheng was a little dumbfounded and said with a smile, "My nephew doesn't bring much materials, ten days is enough." After that, he handed over his personal seal and eight essence pills.
