Descendants of Pangu in the Great Desolation

Chapter 151 Teaching Alchemy
"This is really a miracle." Chang'e let go of my wrist and said in amazement: "I didn't expect that the five elements of the true essence combined with the energy of the lunar sun and the mysterious yellow energy would allow you to break through the shackles of the golden elixir and cultivate into a nascent infant. However, this element The baby is formed by various energies, you may have to retreat for a period of time to integrate all the powers for the cultivation of the Nascent Soul." I nodded and replied: "I know, I will retreat for a while first. By the way, Why do I only see you and Xi'er, where are the others?" Chang'e said, "In order to help you restore the golden elixir, everyone has consumed too much energy, so they are all in retreat." After hearing this, I felt a little guilty: "It's all because of me. It has dragged everyone down." Chang'e shook her head and said, "How can you say that? If it wasn't for saving everyone, how could you have detonated the golden elixir and survived this catastrophe? Do you know that if it wasn't for the Buddha Mother sending fellow wooden Taoists to help you, You may...forget it, don't talk about this. The matter has been successfully concluded, so there is no need to talk about that." I asked: "Buddha Mother, are you talking about the Peacock Daming King Bodhisattva?" Chang'e nodded and said: "Except for her , who else dares to use this honorific title. There is something I have always wanted to ask you, but I have no chance to talk to you alone." I asked, "What is it? Sister Chang, but it's okay to say." Chang'e paused and said: "Ah Hai, why does Yan'er, who is the Buddha's mother, follow you? Why did the Buddha's mother go to the Anning Valley to borrow the sacred objects of the Three Palaces for you? What is the relationship between you and the Buddha's mother?"

"Relationship? If there is a relationship, it doesn't really matter. If it doesn't matter, there is a little relationship." I just said something, and Chang'e was stunned. "Talk twister, let's focus!" I rubbed my forehead. Said: "Actually speaking, I don't even know what the Buddha's mother looks like. I don't know why Yan'er followed me. I don't understand why the Buddha's mother helped me this time. Everything starts with traveling..." I told Chang'e all the stories that happened on Peacock Mountain, including what I experienced and what I learned from my childhood, and I didn't even miss the taste of Zhu Guo. .After hearing this, Chang'e sighed softly, and said casually: "So it's like this. It seems that the Buddha mother trusts you very much, otherwise she would not let Yan'er follow you. By the way, the person sent by the Buddha mother seems to be you." That Mu Qing’er just mentioned.” When I heard that, I said happily, “That’s right! It seems that Qing’er has entered adulthood, that’s why he was sent down the mountain by the Buddha’s mother.” Just as he was talking, Xi’er ran outside He came in and yelled at me: "Brother Hai, I have finished washing your clothes and hung them out." I smiled at him: "Thank you, Xi'er." Xi'er pouted at me and sat down.Seeing Xi'er sitting down, Chang'e said: "Xi'er, Ah Hai may have to retreat for a while, you can meditate with me first, and give him the stone room where you meditate." Xi'er nodded and said: "That's no problem, then I'm going to clean up first," he said, getting up and walking outside.Seeing Xi'er leaving, I hurriedly shouted: "Xi'er wait for me" and got up and left with Xi'er.Seeing me leave, Chang'e said to herself, "Buddha mother, what exactly did you spy on He Tianji, and you would spend a lot of trouble for a young man. Could it be that there will be another catastrophe in the Three Realms, and Ah Hai is the key to resolving this catastrophe? It seems The alchemy successor I was looking for should also be on him..." Chang'e gradually fell into deep thought.

After two months of retreat, I have integrated all my powers and my skills have greatly increased.After leaving the customs, I asked Chang'e to teach me the art of flying the imperial weapon, and Chang'e nodded in agreement.After half a month of practice, I finally mastered the method of the imperial flute, and I was able to stand on the flute lightly without falling down. Chang'e then began to teach me how to fly the imperial flute.Because I don't have a sword in my hand, I have to use the purple jade flute to practice. Although the utensils are different, the effect is the same, so there is no difference between the sword and the flute for flying the imperial weapon. I have to practice even if I burn a fire stick to fly.It's just that I can't travel far because of beginners, but it's not a big problem to go from Qingsong Mountain to the capital.

"Qing'er, Xiaoyou has been in seclusion for more than three months, why hasn't he come out yet?" Just after jumping off the flute after practicing that day, he happened to meet Mu Qing'er coming out of the cave, so she went up to him and asked Xiaoyou about the situation. Case.Mu Qing'er said: "I don't know why he stayed in seclusion for so long, but you can rest assured that nothing will happen to him." Mu Qing'er promised Xiaoyou never to mention the word "His Highness" in front of outsiders, and they are considered friends.I put my heart down and said, "As long as he's fine. Then I'll go back and take a shower first. I'm sweating all over, and it's really sticky." Mu Qing'er nodded, turned and walked out.After he left, I went into the stone room in the cave, took a change of underwear, and walked out of the cave to Xishuitan.

When I came back from the shower, I saw Mu Qing'er and Chang'e sitting in the cave chatting, I went over and sat down and asked, "What are you talking about?" Chang'e replied, "Fellow Taoist Mu said he was going to leave. "I turned to look at Mu Qing'er: "Are you leaving so soon?" Mu Qing'er nodded and said, "Well, just now, the Buddha mother sent me a message, asking me to send the Sangong sacred object back to the Anning Valley as soon as possible. , and take Yan’er back to Lingjiu Mountain.” I nodded and said, “Since the Buddha’s mother is destined, I can’t force you to stay. When do you plan to leave?” Mu Qing’er said: “I plan to leave tomorrow , maybe I can’t wait for Xiaoyou to leave the customs.” I said: “It’s okay, I’ll come to Guzhong as a guest after I’m done. By the way, go back to Lingjiu Mountain to say thank you to the Buddha’s mother for me, and say that I, Situ Hai, will never die. Forget the grace of the Buddha mother." Mu Qing'er nodded and said: "I will convey your thanks to the Buddha mother. When Xiaoyou leaves the customs, you tell him that I will come to the valley to visit him again." I nodded and said: "Don't worry, I will tell him." Chang'e on the side interjected, "Don't be so smudged, both of you. There will always be a chance to meet again."

In the early morning of the second day, Mu Qing'er left the valley with Yan'er, and flew to the west to Yujian.After the two left, Chang'e said to me: "Okay, you have almost learned how to fly the imperial weapon, you just need to practice more in the future. Starting today, I will teach you the art of alchemy, follow me." I was a little puzzled why Chang'e taught me the art of alchemy, but I didn't care too much. Anyway, I would not suffer if I learned more, and I cared about what those people did.Then he followed Chang'e to the stone chamber where she was meditating.

"The art of alchemy refers to the combination of some available minerals, plant medicinal materials, and animal viscera to complement and restrain each other, and to refine a elixir that can cure diseases and save lives or poison people. Those who know how to cure diseases are also capable of healing, and the two complement each other. Today, I will first teach you to identify medicinal herbs, and tell me what it is?" Chang'e briefly introduced it, then stretched out her hand and grabbed a medicinal herb out of thin air. Pass it to me and ask.I took the herb, identified it carefully, and said uncertainly, "This seems to be Houttuynia cordata." Chang'e asked, "How do you say it?" I replied, "I can't say anything else, but this herb It exudes a faint fishy smell, which seems to be the case only with Houttuynia cordata." Chang'e took the herb and said, "Yes, this is Houttuynia cordata. Houttuynia cordata has a faint fishy smell, and the fishy smell is even stronger after crushing. Although it has a very pungent smell, it is very effective in clearing away heat and detoxification, eliminating pain and reducing swelling. Therefore, a small amount of Houttuynia cordata is added when refining elixirs such as promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis. Next, identify this Have a look." Then he grabbed a herb out of thin air and handed it to me.

Half a month later, I could basically tell the medicinal properties and efficacy of common medicinal herbs. I even opened a furnace to refine a elixir under the teaching of Chang'e, but the effect was not very good. pills, one of which was smashed by Lian.Chang'e took the hemostatic pills which were of acceptable quality and said, "It's not bad in terms of quality, but I don't know how effective it is?" I said casually, "Then give it a try." Chang'e smiled and said, "Try it? What do you take?" Come try? How about I cut your arm first, and then apply this pill on the wound to see if it will stop the bleeding?" I shook my head vigorously when I heard it: "That's not what I mean, or I'll grab some How about using a rabbit as an experiment?" As soon as the words finished, Rou'er walked in from the outside, glared at me and said, "Do you dare to use a rabbit to try!" After Rou'er's roar, I suddenly thought that Rou'er's original body was white. Rabbit, I use rabbits for experiments, am I asking for a dead end.I hurriedly laughed and said: "Sister Rou'er, even if you borrow our guts, I don't dare to use rabbits to do experiments." Rou'er laughed and scolded: "If you change quickly, this is for you." Give me a small cage, and there is a little squirrel squatting in the cage, and the squirrel's legs are still dripping with blood.I looked at the squirrel and asked, "What are you doing to my squirrel? It's still an injury?" Rouer slapped me on the head and said angrily, "Aren't you very smart, you don't even understand this?" The side explained: "There is no rabbit to do the experiment, so I use a squirrel. It just so happens that this squirrel's leg is injured. You break open the hemostatic pill you just made and apply it on the wound to see if it will stop the bleeding. If you stop it, you will pass the level." I nodded and said, "Hao Le" and then opened the cage door to catch the injured squirrel, and applied hemostatic pills on it.

After half a stick of incense, the blood on the squirrel's leg stopped smoothly.I happily hugged the squirrel to Chang'e. Chang'e inspected it and said, "Yes, the bleeding has really stopped. But stopping the bleeding is not enough. The squirrel's injury must be completely cured. Now I will leave it to you." The first task is to heal the squirrel's leg injury within three days. I will not teach you how to do it, everything depends on your groping and understanding. Also, this is a silk book for preparing pills, which records the pills in detail The refining process and the efficacy of the finished product. After three days, I will test your results." After speaking, he flung his sleeves and took Rou'er out of the stone room, leaving only me and the squirrel, a human and a beast, and a room full of herbs and emergent substances. The medicine stove that slowly smokes.
