Chapter 19 Chapter 19 Two Entering the Peach Blossom Spring

Compared with the time it takes to adjust the mood, alchemy seems simple. Generally speaking, it takes two to three days for the three-turn pill to finally become a pill. I don't have to worry about starving my stomach for alchemy in the next three days, because only three "Flower Bee Pills" are enough. All the things needed to refine the "Plum Blossom Pill" have been moved into the alchemy cave.With my mother-in-law watching over me, I started alchemy without distraction. The emerald gourd cauldron gradually grew in size, and I programmatically threw various medicinal materials into the cauldron one by one, while calmly controlling the fire.Perhaps because of the influence of Xiaohu, a super-intelligent robot, after more than 20 years of practical alchemy experience, I have been able to skillfully identify the temperature in the cauldron according to the color of the fire and control it.

However, the difference from before is that 80% of my dark energy has been transformed into pill energy, and the remaining 20% ​​dark energy is not enough to control the temperature of the furnace, let alone supply the pill in the cauldron. Because my dark energy is full of plant-based dark energy that symbolizes vitality, the quality of the pills I refine every time is particularly good, and the efficacy is much better than that of pills of the same level. However, my mother-in-law had already anticipated this situation before, so she told me that Dan Qi can also achieve the effect of dark energy.It’s just that Dan Qi, I’ve only been in contact with it for two months, so controlling Dan Qi is obviously much more difficult than controlling dark energy.

Pieces of medicinal materials were thrown into the cauldron by me, and the dregs that gradually fully released their medicinal properties sank to the bottom of the cauldron, and the liquid gradually became viscous. At this time, some medicinal materials have released their medicinal properties, and some medicinal materials have just been put in. So control it with care. Sweat began to form on my forehead, and I was not proficient in controlling Dan Qi, which caused the fire to become slightly unstable.I smiled wryly in my heart, who can maintain a happy mood at this time, if only Xiaohu can convert the alchemy into dark energy.

Xiaohu suddenly said: "Master, do you want to perform energy conversion?" I was surprised and said: "I haven't fully cultivated my heart, can I convert my qi into dark energy?" Xiaohu said: "I have recorded the process of the automatic conversion of dark energy into qi, so according to the normal reasoning, we only need to reverse the conversion to convert qi into dark energy, but the dark energy will lose 100% Sixty." "The loss of this conversion is too great, it is really not worth the loss." After thinking about it in my heart, I denied the reverse conversion.Because Xiaohu's smart program has an energy conversion subroutine, I wondered if it could convert Dan Qi back to dark energy, but I didn't expect such a large loss of dark energy.If I do a reverse transformation, it means that I wasted most of the pill energy I have accumulated over the past few months.

This alchemy is not only important to me, but even more important to Dao Dao.So I no longer stick to my mother-in-law's teachings to me, but let Xiaohu help me scan the temperature of the flame, and at the same time help me control the flow of Dan Qi in my body.In an instant, a three-dimensional flame temperature map appeared in my mind, and I could see the temperature of each flame at a glance. I took a breath, and Xiaohu's joining immediately made me feel at ease. I put my energy into the cauldron, and evenly adjusted the properties of the medicine in the cauldron. New medicinal materials were continuously put into the cauldron, and new medicinal residues continued to settle to the bottom.

After going back and forth, the smell of the medicine gradually became more intense. I reconcile the properties of the medicine without any distractions, and I don't allow any mistakes in the steps.The elixir gradually showed a crystal quality, and the next step is the most important step. I picked up the "Plum Blossom Essence" that had been ground into powder in my hand, and the powdered form is easier to release medicinal properties. Although there is only a handful of powder in my hand, it is related to the overall victory or defeat, and whether I can make a pill in the end is all in my hands, the "essence of plum blossoms".

The previous steps are perfect, just like an artist draws a lifelike dragon on the wall. To make the dragon fly out of the wall, it is only the finishing touch. My finishing touch is the "plum blossom" in my hand. The essence of "powder. My mother-in-law's words stuck in my head: "Put your love and compassion for Dao Dao into Dan." Feng Judao: "Go to alchemy with a happy mood." Immediately, countless interesting pictures of Dao Dao and the little monkey playing in the snow replaced my mother-in-law and Fengrou. I suddenly found that giving Dao Dao the health it deserved is my greatest wish.

I gladly sprinkled the powder of "Plum Blossom Essence" into the Jade Cauldron, and the transparent crystals were immediately stained with a layer of pink, and the strange fragrance gradually rose, so pure and so alluring, it was the fragrance of plum blossoms, but it was more A bit of warmth that plum blossoms don't have.Smelling this strange fragrance, my heart was suddenly filled with happiness. I sniffed this wonderful fragrance that made me feel happy. The pink color gradually began to precipitate, and the crystals began to split. A large piece of crystals split into dozens of small oval crystals, and the pink "plum blossom essence" was deposited on it. in.

When I opened my eyes, the flames under the cauldron were also extinguished, and my heart was full of excitement, I knew that the "Plum Blossom Pill" was done!I looked back at my mother-in-law, who also showed happiness and pride in her smile. She was proud of my success. Outside the cave, Fengrou and Wangziniu are working hard to kill countless poisonous insects and monsters trying to rush into the cave, but fortunately, there are many pet animals who often come to exchange pills with us to help. I couldn't help but said: "Hey, is it morning again?" The mother-in-law smiled and said, "You have been practicing alchemy for four days and four nights."

"Ah, it's been so long, no wonder I feel a little hungry. Forget about it, let me see what the 'Plum Blossom Pill' looks like." I excitedly went to pour the "Plum Blossom Pill" from the emerald gourd tripod. It took me a lot of energy for this pill, so of course I have to feast my eyes first.Although there was a feeling of hunger in my stomach, I still felt refreshed. Four or five grains of "Plum Blossom Pill" rolled into my palm, still exuding warm heat.When I first saw the "Plum Blossom Pill", I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, no wonder Fengrou used art to describe alchemy, but it was really right.

The "Plum Blossom Pills" in front of me are like crystals that have been carefully carved and polished by many masters, exuding unspeakable beauty, I thought to myself that I really couldn't bear to eat them.What's even more strange is that "Plum Blossom Dan" is different from other Dan. It is covered with a layer of tough but soft Dan skin, and the inside is a viscous liquid, which reminds me of honey. The mother-in-law took out a small bottle and poured all the "Plum Blossom Pills" into the bottle. There were thirty pills in total, although compared to the one or two hundred pills I made for the first and second turn pills, it was already very little. , but I am also satisfied. My mother-in-law said to me: "It takes ten pills to wash your body with a knife. Take two pills in the morning and evening, and you will be cured in a month. Of the remaining twenty pills, you have to take ten pills to the Taohuayuan to give to someone, because this It was I who asked someone else for the spirits and agreed, and whether the little beast king’s leg can heal also depends on this person, so you must be respectful when you see him. You can dispose of the last ten pills as you like.” Because it was related to whether the dog and wolf could recover from the leg injury, I asked about the specific situation of that person. My mother-in-law said that the person was an important person in Taohuayuan, the elder of the Guardian Temple, and his name was Beiqianshan.If there is anyone in the world who can cure the little beast king's disability, he is the only one.Then my mother-in-law introduced some of his living habits to me.I kept them in mind one by one. After talking with my mother-in-law for a while, the poisonous insects, birds and beasts that smelled the fragrance from outside gradually dispersed.The Michen forest is really vast and boundless. Almost every time my mother-in-law and I make alchemy, hundreds of poisonous insects and monsters will be attracted. These poisonous insects, poisonous snakes, strange birds, mosquitoes and ants will gradually recede after about 80% of the deaths and injuries. But the next time it will be hundreds or even thousands. Feng Rou and Wang Ziniu rushed into the cave with sweat all over his face, and Wang Ziniu yelled: "It smells delicious, this time it must be a success." It's better, with a nonchalant expression on her face, Feng Rou felt a little hairy in her heart, but fortunately it was in the morning when Dan Cheng was there, and there were many pet animals to help, otherwise they would be in a hurry. I glanced out, and the pet beasts were eating the corpses of the poisonous ant beasts on the ground, and the ground would be "cleaned" by them soon. I stretched out a few "Plum Blossom Pills" in my palm to their eyes and said, "It's done!" "Wow, the 'Plum Blossom Pill' is so beautiful, mother-in-law, when did you start teaching me how to make alchemy?" Prince Niuyan said eagerly. The mother-in-law smiled slightly: "After half a year, I will start teaching you and Fengrou alchemy." Wang Ziniu said regretfully: "It will take so long, it seems that our qualifications are much different from Lan Hu's." Apparently Feng Ruan and Wang Ziniu are concerned about different issues. When she saw the crystal clear "Plum Blossom Pill", she couldn't hide her joy and said, "Let's hurry up and treat the disease." The mother-in-law smiled and said: "There is no need to be so anxious. Before treating the disease with a knife, you need to soak the 'Plum Blossom Pill' in spirits for a day. The medicinal effect will be the best." Open the wine jar in the alchemy cave, throw ten "plum blossom pills" into it, and after a burst of ripples, bursts of wine scent mixed with plum blossoms will come out.The little golden monkey scratched his head while watching, as if he was intoxicated by the aroma of wine. It seems that this guy has become addicted to drinking since he became the Monkey King. After the mother-in-law covered the wine jar, she said: "At this time tomorrow morning, the pill and the spirits will be completely integrated. At that time, the knife and knife can be used to treat diseases. Remember to scrub it with spirits first." Body, after half an hour, soak the knife in the hot spring to remove the residual spirits on its surface." In the next few days, under our careful care, Dao Dao gradually regained his health, and his rough buckskin gradually became shiny. Fortunately, we took strict care of him, otherwise Dao Dao would have almost become an alcoholic. I am afraid that no one or any animal can refuse the fragrance of this strong wine. Even the little dog wolf who has always been indifferent has the idea of ​​tasting it. Dao Dao kept rubbing it with his tongue when we scrubbed its body. Lick the wine on your body. Gradually, a month passed, and Dao Dao fully recovered. Every day, he and the little golden monkey pet led a group of monkeys to make troubles in the forest, looking very energetic.However, it is still a little afraid of the little dog wolf, probably because the little dog wolf exudes the breath of the beast king. Falcon will fly to the sky to patrol every day, mainly because he is afraid that the new alliance will not give up on us, so he will send experts to look for us. The days passed gradually like this. During this period, I practiced pills a few more times.It may be that I have absorbed enough dan qi, all the dan qi in my body gathered at the heart, dyeing the whole heart golden yellow.The mother-in-law said it was a sign of loyalty. When green came out from under the snow layer, my mother-in-law told me that the sacrificial ceremony in Taohuayuan would start in a few days, and it was time for me to leave.At the same time, you can use the few days before the sacrificial ceremony to find Bei Qianshan and ask him to treat the little dog and wolf. Immediately I bid farewell to the three of them, and left the cabin to go to Peach Blossom Spring.Fengrou and Prince Niu haven't formally learned alchemy, and it is impossible to refine the second-turn alchemy, so they are not eligible to participate in the sacrifice ceremony of Taohuayuan, and her mother-in-law stayed in order to continue to guide the two in alchemy. So I was alone on the road. The sun is shining, the snow in the forest is gradually melting, and there is the sound of gurgling water in the distance.The hibernating animals also woke up from their slumber, and there were squirrels jumping on the branches above their heads from time to time along the way. One man and two beasts walked in the light grass, looking a little lonely in the quiet forest. Since I saw Yan Lie in Huangtu Town last time, I haven't seen him again. I don't know if he forgot to invite me to participate in the sacrificial ceremony, I was bored thinking. But I immediately thought of Duguqi, he appeared in Huangtu town in a big way, it seems that the fairy master Li Sheng was entangled in other things, otherwise how could Duguqi be arrogant here?This guy's strength has risen so much, I'm afraid I'm no match for him.But as long as I can master Danxin, which is a higher-level energy than dark energy, I should be able to surpass him. After thinking for a while, my mind returned to the sacrificial ceremony. I don't know what the sacrificial ceremony is like. I should ask my mother-in-law before coming here. Now I have the strength of three-turn inner alchemy. According to my mother-in-law, it is very easy to get a spirit cauldron. The key depends on the level of the spirit cauldron. A low level of spirit cauldron will affect the development space of alchemy in the future.Feng Rou and Wang Ziniu will start formal alchemy in half a year, and it would be the best thing if this trip can help them each get a spirit tripod. Two days later, I arrived at the entrance of Taohuayuan. Because the snow melted and the road was difficult, I arrived one day late.When I walked to the stone wall and just removed the cover and was about to step into the cave, a man suddenly appeared from the cave and asked seriously, "Who is here?" The visitor was wearing a black samurai uniform, blending himself into the darkness well. If he hadn't taken the initiative to make a sound, it would be difficult for people coming in from the outside to find him. I stood at the entrance of the cave in astonishment, and blurted out, "Who are you?" There was a slight anger in his eyes, obviously dissatisfied with my rhetorical question.I looked him up and down. He was dressed in a samurai uniform with a flower embroidered on his chest. I wondered how a man would like to embroider his own clothes. He was about twenty years old, about the same age as me, with a sword stuck in his ribs, a bow on his back, and a quiver on his back where he could easily draw out. There were more than a dozen arrows in it. He was dressed like an old warrior. But when he pulled out the lightsaber under his ribs, I realized that his weapon is not ancient, but very modern. It is a high-tech product of ancient human society, and even in the market, it is not something that ordinary people can own. , in other words this is a military product. He looked at me dismissively and said: "According to the regulations, if the visitor does not reveal his identity, I have the right to kill him. Your contempt for me will make you pay for it." An extraordinary power rose from him, and the coercion generated by the powerful force made me take a step back involuntarily.At the same time, a thought arose in my heart, this guy in front of me is not an ordinary person, is he also from Taohuayuan?I hurriedly looked at his neck, but to my disappointment, I didn't see Qiqi's spirit tripod worn around his neck. He watched me take a step back, with a mocking look in his eyes, and said casually: "Not everyone can participate in the sacrificial ceremony." My eyes suddenly sank, and I said: "How do you know that I am here to participate in the sacrificial ceremony?" "Everyone who enters through this gate during this time is here to participate in the sacrificial ceremony. Although everyone is invited, as the greatest sacrificial ceremony in the world, we guardians cannot allow an incompetent Someone entered the Holy Land of Peach Blossom Spring. Tell me, who is your referrer?" He said proudly. He revealed that he is the guardian of Taohuayuan. Although I still have doubts about his identity, I still held my breath and said, "My recommender is Yan Lie." I wanted to say it was my mother-in-law. , but when I think of my mother-in-law participating in the sacrificial ceremony in Taohuayuan, the young guy in front of me has not yet been born, so he may not know her name.So I said Yan Lie's name, Yan Lie, he should know him. Sure enough, when he heard Yan Lie's name, his expression was obviously startled, and he said: "Are you Duguqi?" "Ah, is he also invited?" Hearing that this guy was also on the list of being invited to participate in the sacrificial ceremony, I felt unhappy, and I said lightly: "I am Lanhu." He immediately put away his hostile gaze, looked at me with curiosity and slight contempt, and said, "Are you the Beastmaster of the New Humans in the outside world? I heard that every Beastmaster in the New Humans is a very powerful character." Woolen cloth." I could hear the contempt for me in his words, but I knew that unless I could grasp the power of Dan Xin as soon as possible, I might not be this guy's opponent.I said angrily: "People in the world are spreading rumors. I am not as powerful as the rumors say. Can I go in?" He smiled and said, "Go in, since you are brother Yan Lie's friend, you will also be my Ling Zhigao's friend in the future." Listening to his tone, it seems that he and Yan Lie have a good relationship, I sighed in my heart , clasped his fists at him and said, "I'll go ahead." He chuckled and didn't care about my indifference.From his eyes, I feel the law of the jungle of nature, he is a person who pursues force, and only strong strength can win his respect.After I figured this out, the dissatisfaction in my heart disappeared. The purpose of my trip is to obtain the spirit tripod, condense my heart, and strengthen my strength. He said: "You came very early, and the sacrificial ceremony will be held for half a month. Go straight through the tunnel behind me, and when you get out of the cave, someone will take you to rest. Don't worry, as long as you Friends who are Big Brother Yan Lie will be treated very well." I thanked him and went straight into the cave.His tone was much more polite, but I felt a little more uneasy.He said that Yan Lie's friends would be well received, so from another perspective, people who were not recommended by Yan Lie must be treated much worse. The gods and people of Taohuayuan have multiplied and lived in the Michen Forest for thousands of years, and have been silently guarding the Cauldron God. Why does this place that has always been indisputable from the world suddenly have differential treatment from the outside world?It's really intriguing. I have experienced many things, and I have been with Wang Ziniu, a veteran of the world, for a long time. I have gradually become more sophisticated in observing things and thinking about problems.But I still can't grasp the core of things at once like Wang Ziniu. Through the long tunnel, I entered the Peach Blossom Spring for the second time. It was already early spring, and my eyes suddenly opened up, which gave me another sensory shock. In the distance, the mountains are undulating and stretching, with lush vegetation and picturesque scenery. The forest surrounded by Peach Blossoms on the left and right has towering trees, and the rays of the sun are transmitted from the tops of the trees with thick leaves and shades. The colorful lights are colorful and indescribably beautiful. A woman also wearing a black samurai uniform appeared in front of me, with a characteristic accent of Taohuayuan, she smiled and looked at me and said, "Are you a guest here to participate in the sacrificial ceremony?" A very polite girl, I immediately defined her in my heart, retracted my gaze from the scenery, and said in a gentle and polite way like her: "Yes, I was invited by Yan Lie to participate in this sacrificial ceremony .” "Ah, so it was invited by Big Brother Yan Lie." The good-looking girl made no secret of her affection for Yan Lie.I muttered in my heart, Yan Lie seems to be very popular among young people in Taohuayuan. "Please come with me, I'll take you to the resting place, you can call me Yudie." She introduced herself and led me to the valley. "Well, my name is Lan Hu." I quickly introduced myself. At the bottom of the valley, at a glance, there are hundreds of acres of fertile land, where various vegetables, rice and millet are planted. Among the fruit trees, huts are hidden.As she walked ahead, she introduced the situation of the grand ceremony to me: "Lan Hu, our grand ceremony won't start until half a month later, besides you, there are more than 20 invited guests Come here before the ceremony. You can take a look around here before the ceremony, the people in our Taohuayuan are very friendly." Speaking of this, she turned her head and smiled at me, and then continued: "Of course, except for a few You are not allowed to trespass outside the restricted area, and no one will care about you if you go to other places." I was stunned and said: "There are still restricted areas, can you tell me which ones are restricted?" She smiled and said, "That's not necessary. If you enter the restricted area by mistake, someone will come out to stop you. As long as you obey the other party's words and leave there, no one will embarrass you." I nodded, but after seeing the savage Qiqi and the arrogant gatekeeper just now, I didn't take Yudie's words seriously. Yudie said: "You don't have to worry about food and lodging. The clan attaches great importance to inviting people from outside to participate in the grand ceremony this time, so we have assigned special people to prepare food for you and meet your requirements. If you If you have any questions, you can still contact me, and I will try my best to help you." In a vast open space, a row of wooden houses was erected.Judging from the color of the wood of the house, I am afraid that this row of wooden houses has just been built, and it should be prepared for outsiders like me.
