"People from Baodan Residence?"
Su Changkong nodded slightly, the Sun Yun in front of him was somewhat similar in appearance to the Sun Fu he had seen before, but his temperament was completely different. That Sun Fu was a talented person, while this Sun Yun was decadent and overdone.
Sun Yun introduced himself, then rolled his eyes: "Just now you came to Baodanju to ask my grandfather to help me in alchemy, right? I'm not talented, but I have learned alchemy for 20 years, so I can give you a little discount !"
Su Changkong sounded a little funny. He didn't even trust Sun Yinian, let alone the Sun Yun in front of him. Sun Yun's alchemy skills are definitely far inferior to Sun Yinian's.Even if he didn't charge for free, he wouldn't be willing, it was a waste of money!
"Forget it, if there is nothing else, I will leave first." Su Changkong refused directly.
"Wait a minute! I heard you want to learn alchemy?"
But Sun Yun immediately stopped Su Changkong.
"Huh? Can you teach me alchemy?"
Hearing this, Su Changkong stopped and looked back at Sun Yun.
This Sun Yun is Sun Yinian's grandson. He followed Sun Yinian to learn alchemy since he was a child. Sun Yinian no longer accepts apprentices, so it is not impossible for him to learn alchemy from this Sun Yun!
However, Sun Yun sneered and said, "I have limited skills, and I don't have the patience to be a teacher, but... I can give you books on alchemy, you just need to learn from the above."
Saying that, Sun Yun took out a thick book that was half the width of a palm from his arms, and he smiled and said, "This is the Bao Dan Lu compiled by my grandfather, which records the refining process of some commonly used medicinal pills. It also introduces the basic techniques of alchemy in detail, which is the book that grandpa used to teach us disciples alchemy, if you want to learn alchemy, just follow the above."
Su Changkong's heart moved, indeed, if there were books on alchemy, it would be the same!
"How much money do you need?" Su Changkong was also moved when he heard the words, and he asked directly.
Knowing that Sun Yun came to sell this book, it must be for money.
"Mr. Li is happy! For 1 taels of silver, this Baodanlu will be sold to Mr. Li!"
When Sun Yun saw Su Changkong being so eloquent, he immediately smiled and said directly.
And Sun Yun is undoubtedly the lion's big mouth, opening his mouth is 1 taels of silver!
Su Changkong was expressionless: "Are you joking with Li?"
Alchemy, 1 taels of silver?It’s not Baojiaobaohui. It costs 1 taels for just one book to learn by yourself?
Sun Yun still smiled and said quickly, "If you think it's expensive, you can get a discount, 9000 taels!"
Su Changkong did not speak, Sun Yun gritted his teeth: "8000 taels! This book was compiled by my grandfather for decades. It is difficult for outsiders to see it, and it is absolutely impossible to buy it with money!"
"7000 taels! It can't be any lower!"
Sun Yun exclaimed.
But Su Changkong was still unmoved, just looked at Sun Yun and said: "My money is all in exchange for my life, your treasure pill record is at best a guide to getting started with alchemy, and there is no famous teacher to guide, I may buy it. I can’t even read it, I’m really interested in alchemy, but it’s not worth it if the price is too high!”
Sun Yun was helpless, and said a little discouraged: "Then how much do you think you can give?"
"2000 taels, one or two more won't work!" Su Changkong thought for a while, and finally gave his bottom line price.
At the Zhao Family Auction, a very exquisite Chihuo Kungfu was sold for more than 1000 taels of silver. Rare things are more expensive, and books on alchemy are hard to find, but 2000 taels of silver is already what Su Changkong is willing to pay for. It's paid off!
"Okay... okay, how stingy... 2000 taels is 2000 taels, if it's not for lack of money... I won't sell you, and you can't tell others that I sold it to you. If grandpa finds out, he must call Break my leg!"
Seeing that Su Changkong couldn't agree, he immediately turned around and left, Sun Yun finally broke down, waved his hands weakly and agreed, and repeatedly told Su Changkong not to tell others about their transactions.
Sun Yun was Sun Yinian's grandson, but he was idle and extravagant on weekdays, owed a lot of debt outside, and he didn't dare to tell his grandfather that he overheard Su Changkong and Sun Fu's conversation outside the door today, so he moved. Mind, followed, and wanted to sell a large sum of money with Baodan Lu to pay off the foreign debt.
However, Su Changkong doesn't care about this. He just wants to get this treasure pill record and study it. As long as he can learn the alchemy technique, he can be self-sufficient.
Su Changkong took out 2000 taels of silver from his pocket and handed it to Sun Yun. Sun Yun also handed the Baodanlu to Su Changkong, and at the same time put aside the relationship and said: "If you follow this Baodanlu, you won't be able to learn alchemy." Art, that's none of my business! It's because you don't have that day!"
Su Changkong was too lazy to tell Sun Yunduo that if there was no problem with the Baodan Record, it would naturally be his problem whether he could learn the alchemy technique, but if he found out that the Baodan Record was falsified, it would cost him both money and energy. , then Su Changkong will definitely not make Sun Yun feel better!
After completing the transaction, Sun Yun shrank his head and walked out of the alley.
"I want to study alchemy with just one book? It's a fool's dream! I have been taught and directed by my grandfather since I was a child, and I don't know much about alchemy!"
As Sun Yun walked, he sneered secretly.
An accomplished alchemist not only needs theoretical knowledge, but also needs a lot of practice and experience to accumulate, spending money like flowing water, otherwise in this huge Molinfu city, those alchemists will not be so rare, and they are all from big families. Only members have the ability and resources to build an experienced alchemist!
Therefore, from Sun Yun's point of view, Su Changkong's attempt to learn alchemy by relying on a book was not very likely. He would probably learn it for a few days, suffered several setbacks, and decided to give up after suffering heavy losses.
Naturally, Su Changkong didn't know Sun Yun's thoughts. He recorded Baodan and returned to the manor he rented in the XC area.
"Look at this treasure pill record."
Su Changkong took out the Baodan Record and read it carefully.
Su Changkong still had certain confidence in whether he could learn alchemy. His potential value was as high as 15 points, and his aptitude and understanding were not comparable to ordinary people, and it was not only effective for martial arts.
Like Su Changkong's forging technique, it is because of his potential that he can reach a level that others can't reach in a few years!
Su Changkong carefully read the Baodan Record word by word, and the more he looked, the more amazed he became.
"This alchemy technique is indeed a technical activity, and it is more complicated than forging. Alchemy technique is to refine various medicinal materials and substances into alchemy through the two major categories of fire method and water method, so that these The material exerts the most extreme or even beyond the extreme effect!"
"The fire method generally includes calcining, refining, roasting, melting, pumping, flying, and volting, and the water method includes melting, drenching, sealing, boiling, boiling, brewing, etc..."
Su Changkong was a little fascinated by it. This "Bao Dan Lu" is indeed not a masterpiece of alchemy. In fact, if it is really the work of alchemy master, Su Changkong has no basis and is impossible to understand.
But this Baodan Record is the work of an old alchemist for decades. It records the basics of alchemy. It is indeed very suitable for alchemists to get started!
Su Changkong spent a day and a night reading this treasure pill record completely, and he also had a general understanding of alchemy in his heart.
"No matter how rich the theoretical knowledge is, it is only on paper. I have to get started and summarize experience and lessons through practice and failure."

Su Changkong decided to practice it himself and start alchemy!
Alchemy is not enough for one pill furnace.
There are a lot of tools needed for alchemy, such as a still for distillation, a grinder for grinding, a dan furnace, a cauldron, a cooking pot, a pump and so on.
Su Changkong immediately started to buy these tools. Fortunately, these tools can be bought with money. Su Changkong spent two days to set up a dedicated alchemy room in the manor.
"Let's refine the living qi pill for hand training recorded in the Baodan Record first."
Su Changkong was flipping through the books. There were several common medicinal pills in the Baodan Record, Jinchuangdan and Huoqi Dan.
Among them, this live qi pill is to accelerate the recovery of vigor, and it is effective for warriors to restore physical strength and infuriating energy. It is a quite practical pill!
"Sawgrass needs to be boiled for a long time, and the flower needs to be roasted until there is no moisture, and then ground into powder."
Su Changkong followed the steps in the Baodan Record and started the preparation of materials before alchemy. These medicinal materials are relatively common and can be bought with money, but the price is not cheap!
Su Changkong was busy for two hours before he finished preparing and concocting the materials, and then it was the official alchemy.
In front of Su Changkong, there is a pill stove with a diameter of half a meter and a height of one foot. It cost Su Changkong a full 500 taels of silver.
Su Changkong started to make a fire. He used high-quality coal with extremely high density and carbon content. This coal is smokeless and can emit a high temperature!
call!
Under the pill stove, the flame rose, but the pill stove heated up. Su Changkong poured clean water from the water outlet of the pill stove, and then added a variety of materials, before and after, adding more than ten kinds of medicinal materials.
"Increase the heat!"
Su Changkong pushed the bellows, causing the flames under the Pill Stove to rise.
The most important part of alchemy is of course the process of alchemy. It is necessary to grasp the heat perfectly, and the time to open the furnace must be perfect, not too early or too late!
Su Changkong has experience in forging, he is very patient, and sometimes adds water from the water outlet of the pill furnace.
Above the whole mouth of the Pill Stove, there is dense smoke rising from the air outlet, and there is a smell of medicine in the air!
"Crack!"
Everything seemed to be going very smoothly, but as time passed, after an hour, there was a slight sound coming out of the pill furnace, and at the same time a smell of burning lake came out.
"Failed..." Su Changkong had a hint of helplessness on his face, knowing that his first attempt at alchemy ended in failure.
Sure enough, Su Changkong opened the lid of the Pill Stove, and he saw the object sticking to the coke lake on the barrier of the Pill Stove. This time, nearly a hundred taels of silver were lost in the alchemy!
Fortunately, Su Changkong was mentally prepared, he cleaned the inside of the pill furnace, washed it in a small pool, and restarted the second pill refining.
"Last time, the heat was not well controlled." Su Changkong learned from his experience.
Alchemy (17% for entry)
After a busy day, Su Changkong failed to refine a pot of vital energy pills. He spent several hundred taels of silver, but it was not all in vain. In the skill column of his attribute panel, in addition to forging, there was another pill refining. technique!
"The next step is to continuously refine the living qi pills to practice hands, and when the proficiency and success rate come up, refine the qi and blood pills."
Su Changkong was full of energy.
It is naturally impossible to practice with Qi and Blood Pill. The material for a Qi and Blood Pill is 3000 taels of silver, not to mention Su Changkong, even the richest family in Molin City cannot be so prodigal and extravagant. .
Facts have proved that Su Changkong's potential value of 15 points is not a decoration. It only took Su Changkong a week to achieve his alchemy technique from the entry level to the realm of the first glimpse of the door!
At this time, Su Changkong already had a chance to succeed in refining the Living Qi Pill!
"Successful refining?"
Beside the Pill Stove, Su Changkong's face was full of joy as he looked at the Pill Stove, which had already been burnt dry, and there were a few medicinal pills with residual warmth on the top of the stove.
There were ten pills in total, and Su Changkong took them out one by one with a jade spoon and checked them carefully.
"There are a total of 10 Living Qi Pills, only two are Cheng Pills, and the other eight are all waste Pills!"
Su Changkong discovered that of the ten medicinal pills in this pot, only two of them were of qualified quality, and the other eight had either a burnt lake smell or a mellow mass that would dissipate when touched!
But in any case, this got off to a good start and made Su Changkong more motivated!
If the people at Baodan Residence knew that it only took six or seven days for Su Changkong to go from ignorant of alchemy to successfully refining it into a living qi pill, it would definitely be a shock!
Although Huoqi Pill is a pill used to practice hands, it is not too difficult, but ordinary people have to practice hard for several months or even half a year to have the opportunity to make the finished product alone. Su Changkong only spent a week, this is definitely a genius level!
"continue!"
Su Changkong forgot to eat and sleep, completely immersed in the alchemy technique, just like his first martial arts practice and his first forging, when he had a goal and direction, he kept going!
Time has passed, and it has been three months since Su Changkong came to Molin Mansion City. During these three months, apart from his daily practice of martial arts, most of his energy was devoted to alchemy.
Alchemy (3 levels of integration and penetration 5%)
In three months, Su Changkong's alchemy technique leapt forward, from the original entry to the 3rd realm, a little success!
The astonishing talent brought by 15 potential points, this progress is undoubtedly jaw-dropping to ordinary people, but correspondingly, Su Changkong is also quite heartbroken: "In three months, it cost me almost 3 taels of silver..."
In order to quickly master alchemy, Su Changkong practiced alchemy every day, and he had to spend about 300 taels of silver a day. After three months, he spent 3 taels of silver. This undoubtedly caused Su Changkong heartache.
In Qingshui City, Su Changkong risked his life to hunt down the disciples of the Black Lotus Sect. In order to make amends, Wang Yun, the magistrate of the county, took out all his family assets. Su Changkong accumulated nearly 5 taels of silver.
