Chapter 5
The pharmacy of Lieyang College.

"What did you say? Duan Chen wants to make alchemy? What are you kidding? If that trash can make alchemy, sows will climb trees."

As soon as Duan Chen was mentioned, Gongsun Lieyan became very angry. He helped him out of kindness, but Duan Chen didn't appreciate him. Instead, he said that he was not a qualified alchemist. Now that Xiao Shuang came to borrow money for Duan Chen Dan furnace, Gongsun Lieyan is like hearing the funniest joke in the world.

"Sister Lie Yan, the current monster pig can not only climb trees, but also hide in the ground. Just lend me a pill furnace, and I promise to return it to you as soon as it is used up." Xiao Shuang begged bitterly.

"You...you girl, what can I tell you? What kind of ecstasy soup did this Duanchen use to make you turn to him like this? If he says a word, you will be desperate, and if he farts, you will die. ?” Gongsun Lieyan said.

"Sister Lieyang, don't laugh at me." When Gongsun Lieyan said this, Xiao Shuang blushed immediately, her head drooped, and she didn't dare to look up at Gongsun Lieyan.

"Hey, forget it, I'll lend him one." Gongsun Lieyan reluctantly took out an exquisite alchemy stove from the Jiezi bracelet, and said, "This is my spare alchemy stove, first lend it to him and take it."

"Thank you Sister Lieyan, don't worry, I'll return it to you immediately when it's used up." Xiao Shuang took the cauldron of pill furnace with both hands, and said gratefully.

"We sisters, do we need to say thank you? Go, I still have things to do." Gongsun Lieyan said.

……

"Hmph, if you know how to make alchemy, I will give you the cauldron alchemy furnace for nothing." Just as Xiao Shuang left, Gongsun Lieyan said angrily.

"Lie Yan, who are you angry with?" A vicissitudes of voice came from the room.

As soon as the voice fell, a stooped old woman came out from behind the screen. The old woman was wearing a black robe, the hair on her head was already graying, and there was no aura in her body. She is like an old man, but anyone who knows her knows how terrifying this person is. This person is Yu Jianglan, the master of the medicine hall who was promoted to a third-grade alchemist not long ago, and Gongsun Lieyan's master.

"Master, isn't that trash Duan Chen, a dying person, who came to ask me to borrow the alchemy furnace and said that he wanted to make alchemy. Do you think this is ridiculous?" Gongsun Lieyan said with contempt.

"Duan Chen? The Duan Chen who gave you the list of medicinal materials and asked you to help him find them?" Hearing that Gongsun Lieyan mentioned Duan Chen, the old woman's eyes flashed brightly, and she asked eagerly.

"That's right, it's that trash, what's the matter? Master." Gongsun Lieyan looked at Yu Jianglan's eyes and asked uncertainly, thinking to himself, does the master know this trash?But it shouldn't be, Yu Jianglan has not been out of the medicine hall all year round, and has been researching how to refine higher-level pills, how could she know Duan Chen, a waste?
"That's right, I'm sure, he can make alchemy, and he is an alchemist of high rank, maybe alchemy is not inferior to me." Yu Jianglan said excitedly.

"What? His alchemy is not inferior to his master's? Master, did you make a mistake? He is just a trash who is notorious in the academy. How could he be better than the master?" Gongsun Lieyan looked at him with an incomprehensible expression With Yu Jianglan.

"Lie Yan, people should not be judged by their appearance. Maybe this young man has some difficulties, and he is right. You are not a qualified alchemist. Although you have a badge issued by the guild, you have too little knowledge. , I know too few medicinal materials." Yu Jianglan said.

"Master, you...why are you talking to him?" Gongsun Lieyang looked dissatisfied, what happened today?Why are they all helping Duan Chen, this trash?

"Lie Yan, do you know what the medicine he asked you to help find is for?" Yu Jianglan asked.

"Who knows? Make a lot of non-existent medicinal materials to embarrass me, and... hey, forget it, I don't want to talk about him, I just get angry when I talk about it."

"Let me tell you, those medicinal materials exist, but you haven't seen them before, and he will use some medicinal materials to refine a second-grade elixir called 'Quixing Pill', if I'm not wrong , his body may have been poisoned by Xingnongcao toxin and needs to be refined and detoxified by Quxing Pill."

As a veteran alchemist, Yu Jianglan had already guessed Duan Chen's intentions based on the medicinal materials needed for the investigation.

"This... how is it possible? Is he so powerful?" Gongsun Lieyan still couldn't believe that Duan Chen was an alchemist, and at least he was an alchemist above the second rank.

There are also grades of alchemists. Those who can refine first-rank pills are called first-rank alchemists, those who can refine second-rank pills are called second-rank alchemists, and so on, those who can refine ninth-rank pills are called ninth-rank alchemists Masters, of course, there are also legendary god-level alchemists who can refine god-level pills.

"It's useless to talk too much, Lie Yan, didn't he come to borrow a pill furnace from you just now? Let's go and have a look, won't everything be clear?" Yu Jianglan said with a smile.

In fact, Yu Jianglan herself is also curious, and wants to know whether Duan Chen used the alchemy furnace to refine the elixir, or whether there is an expert behind him to make alchemy for him. In Yu Jianglan's heart, there is still a tendency for an expert to help Duan Chen, but this also means It doesn't make sense, because the average alchemist, who doesn't have his own alchemy furnace?
……

Ever since Xiao Shuang borrowed the alchemy furnace, Duan Chen has been busy. Various medicinal materials have been confirmed for their quality and efficacy. Now Duan Chen has spent a lot of time. There is no way, after rebirth, Not only the physical fitness is weak, but also the mental strength is extremely weak. If you want to judge the quality of a medicinal herb just by mental strength like in the previous life, you still have a long way to go.

Finally, after spending an entire hour, Duan Chen divided the medicinal materials into five parts, each corresponding to one Jinghuasui Pill.

"Let's start." Duan Chen was somewhat looking forward to the first alchemy of his rebirth.

"Boom, boom." The flame under the pill furnace was burning fiercely. After the pill furnace was preheated, Duan Chen put the medicinal materials into the pill furnace in order.

Alchemy is roughly divided into three steps, namely, refining, concentrating, and collecting alchemy.

The so-called refining refers to the process from selecting medicinal materials to extracting the essence of the medicine with the alchemy furnace.Although this process sounds simple, it is not an ordinary difficulty to do it. If this step is not done well, the quality of the whole pill will be greatly reduced, and in serious cases, it will directly lead to the useless pill.

What is extracted is the most essential part of the medicinal material, which requires an alchemist to have a particularly strong perception of the drug, and be able to accurately judge when to start refining and when to finish refining.

The second step is concentration. Concentrate the medicinal essence extracted before, and mix and refine according to a certain ratio of dosage and sequence. This step is the simplest step in the alchemy process. , the dosage can be successful with some understanding.

The third step is to collect the pills. This step requires the alchemist to have astonishing perseverance. Every time he collects the pills, he must use the formula of collecting the pills to stabilize the properties of the medicine in the pill, so as not to let the effect of the medicine come out, so as to ensure the pill The better the quality of the pill, the better the pill collection method, the better the quality of the pill.

In the whole process of alchemy, the most important and crucial thing is to control the flame. Whether it is refining medicine, concentrating, or collecting pills, the requirements for the flame are extremely high. If the alchemy is used, if the flame is too large, it will cause the alchemy to explode. Therefore, if you want to learn alchemy, the first thing you need to do is to learn how to control the flame.

Duan Chen's mental power is always paying attention to the changes in the medicinal materials in the alchemy furnace. Once he finds that the medicinal materials are almost extracted, Duan Chen immediately controls the flame and proceeds to the second refining.

Half an hour later, Duan Chen's body was already covered with beads of sweat, and beads of sweat dripped down his forehead, but this did not affect Duan Chen's alchemy at all.

A full hour passed, and with the pill furnace as the source, bursts of medicinal fragrance wafted out, which was a sign of imminent success.At this point, as long as there is no problem with the method of collecting the pills in the end, then the refining can basically be declared successful.

"Dan Cheng, turn on the furnace." Dan Cheng let out a roar, and quickly stamped a formula with both hands on the furnace, which was Duan Chen's usual way of collecting pills.

"Boom." The pill furnace was opened, and five light green pills were neatly placed in the furnace.

Looking at the five pills, Duan Chen finally relaxed his frown, and said with a smile, "It's finally done."

……

When Gongsun Lieyan and Yu Jianglan arrived, Duan Chen was in the stage of collecting pills, and the two stood watching from a distance knowingly, and did not disturb Duan Chen. When cutting the marrow alchemy, the shock in their hearts was not small, especially Gongsun Lieyan, who never thought that Duan Chen could really make alchemy.

"Master, he... he really practiced the first-grade washing essence cutting marrow pill?" Gongsun Lieyan still seemed in disbelief.

"Haha, Lie Yan, you read that right, let's go over and say hello, he is the one we are worth wooing." Yu Jianglan said, walking towards Duan Chen's yard.

When Yu Jianglan saw the five essence-washing pills in the pill furnace, his heart skipped a beat.

These five pills exude a faint medicinal fragrance, and a medicinal fragrance enters the body, making the whole person feel refreshed. In addition, the body becomes very sensitive to the aura of the air. It seems that as long as you want to Absorb the spiritual energy, and there will be a steady stream of spiritual energy entering the body.

"Refining five pills, there is not a single waste pill, and judging from the quality, they should all be first-rank high-level alchemy pills. This... Duan Chen's alchemy rank must be higher than first-rank advanced, or even second-rank junior alchemists." Now, such a talent must be admitted to the medicine hall." Yu Jianglan thought in shock.

Yu Jianglan's previous plan was that even if Duan Chen was not an alchemist, as long as he had the potential to become an alchemist, he would be hired as an apprentice and be trained. But after seeing Duan Chen's alchemy level, Yu Jianglan just wanted to draw Duan Chen Enter the medicine hall.
