No taboos

Chapter 247: Alchemy in the External Furnace
Baibinggui and Liangxincheng had been waiting for Xu Yuan. As soon as they saw him, Baibinggui started jumping with excitement, and Liangxincheng kept circling around Xu Yuan.

Xu Yuan secretly told them: "She has been rescued and is still recovering from her injuries. When she is well again, I will bring her to you to meet her."

The two craftsmen repeatedly reminded him: You must remember this and don't delay.

Then Xu Yuan asked for medicine for Xiao Loufang.

The scale was so angry that he raised the scale bar and wanted to hit someone... He managed to restrain himself with great difficulty.

The two craftsmen really wanted to kick Xu Yuan out.

You're going too far.

But for the sake of the master, let it go.

Baibinggui explained to Xu Yuan that this was different from the situation of the founder, and said a lot of things in a long-winded way.

Xu Yuan didn't understand whether these words were true or false.

But I felt too embarrassed to force them, so I had to go back in shame.

When Aunt Wang saw Xu Yuan again, she took out a prescription and said, "I have an antidote. Go to Sanniang Hui and buy some herbs. I will tell you how to make it."

I'll take this opportunity to promote you to the sixth rank."

Xu Yuan didn't want to run away, so he gave the prescription to Lang Xiaoba.

Lang Xiaoba made another trip and came back after more than an hour.

"Some of the herbs were very rare and not even in the Sanniang Society. They sent people all over the city to buy them, and they finally managed to gather them all. That's why they were delayed."

Xu Yuan asked Aunt Wang: "We are pressed for time, it would be faster if you come to refine it."

Moreover, Xu Yuan was worried that his entire furnace of pills would be wasted, and it would be difficult to gather all the herbs again.

Aunt Wang shook her head: "I'm not in a good condition to make pills now."

If this pill is used to save Xu Yuan and Lin Wanmo's lives, Aunt Wang will do it herself even at the risk of her life.

Xu Yuan nodded: "Okay, I'll give it a try."

Sixth-rate, can it succeed?

The middle third rate and the bottom third rate are completely different concepts.

Apart from other things, the sixth-level alchemist will gain a new ability: re-melting.

The external elixir that has been refined can be returned to the furnace for a second refining to improve its "quality".

For example, an external elixir contains some kind of "strange skill", which was originally only at the seventh-rate level, but can be upgraded to the sixth-rate after being re-refined!

An eighth-rate artifact is sealed in the outer elixir, and re-melting it can upgrade it to the seventh-rate!
However, each alchemist has different abilities. Some are good at refining "medicine" pills, while others are good at refining "craftsman" pills. They are all different.

Xu Yuan and Aunt Wang went to the alchemy room together.

Lin Wanmo was worried, so he followed them.

Aunt Wang first explained to Xu Yuan the steps and key points of refining the elixir in the furnace.

He also talked about several commonly used techniques during the operation.

This lecture lasted more than two hours.

It was only a general statement.

"You are short on time, so that's all I have to say for today." Aunt Wang said, "Now you start working, and I'll guide you. Let's refine this batch of pills first.

If I really want to finish telling the whole story, it will take several months at least."

"Okay." Xu Yuan agreed.

First, check the objects, and carefully check the alchemy furnace, medicine grinder and other items one by one, especially the alchemy furnace, and make sure there are no foreign objects left.

Then comes the selection of medicine, preparation of medicine, and initial treatment.

After everything is done, start using fire.

Under the guidance of Aunt Wang, Xu Yuan slowly injected the "fire in his belly" into the alchemy furnace.

Unlike ordinary alchemists, he does not need coal or firewood to make medicine, but relies entirely on the fire in his own stomach.

Aunt Wang stood behind Xu Yuan to protect him, as if she was facing a great enemy, with an expression of "risking everything", but Xu Yuan did not see it.

Aunt Wang only told Xu Yuan the basics, but in fact, refining elixirs in an alchemy furnace involves many dangers for alchemists.

Those medicinal pills are extremely tempting to the mysterious existence hidden in the secret!
They would suddenly appear from unknown places, attack alchemists, and steal their medicinal pills.

But Xu Yuan was striving for the sixth level, and Aunt Wang didn't want to distract him.

Aunt Wang is ready to take this risk for Ayuan herself.

If she told him, Xu Yuan would definitely not allow her to protect the law.

A Yuan might fail if he were promoted to the sixth level. If Xiao Mo were to be the guardian, she would be a craftsman, not as familiar with the ways of alchemy as Aunt Wang.

It was just a furnace of sixth-rate external elixir. Aunt Wang was confident that she could prevent all "accidents" and would never let those evil spirits disturb A Yuan.

By helping Ayuan get promoted to the sixth class, Aunt Wang’s wish was fulfilled.

Even if there are door gods posted on the alchemy room, it cannot keep out those evil spirits.

From the moment the elixir was refined in the furnace, the protection of the door god disappeared.

A third-rate alchemist once speculated that alchemy was equivalent to stealing certain "authority".

Not pleasing to God.

Therefore, the door gods no longer protect us.

The elixir is being refined inside the body, and God cannot detect it.

If you use the alchemy furnace to make elixirs, you will be exposed immediately.

……

Lin Wanmo had been waiting outside the door, pacing back and forth with her head lowered, her two worried hands clasped in front of her.

After turning around twice, I suddenly realized that there was a small thing next to me.

Da Fu was just like her, swaying and pacing back and forth.

"When did you follow me out?" Lin Wanmo suddenly laughed.

Lin Wanmo sat down in front of the door, placed the big fortune beside him, and said to himself, "That's good. I have a companion. I won't be anxious when I'm alone."

But then he suddenly remembered: "A Yuan received guidance from Aunt Wang, so does that count as inheriting the tradition in the alley?"

She groaned, "Master, this mess you left me is really hard to clean up."

Lin Wanmo waited outside for more than an hour. It was almost dark and he was worried...he was extremely panicked.

Suddenly I heard the door open, and I quickly turned around to see Aunt Wang walking out with a strange look on her face.

Lin Wanmo's heart skipped a beat: "Didn't it work?"

"It's done." Aunt Wang replied.

Lin Wanmo felt relaxed all over, as if a huge burden had been lifted from his shoulders.

"Then why do you look so unhappy?"

Aunt Wang started to scold him, "Ayuan was born to be an alchemy practitioner! Xu Huanyang has delayed Ayuan. If he had learned alchemy from me since he was young, he might have been a fifth-rate or even fourth-rate practitioner by now!"

Lin Wanmo's eyes lit up: "Ayuan's talent in alchemy is so good?"

"Of course not! When refining the elixir in the furnace, it is most likely to attract strange things.

Either those unclean things that crawled up from the Yellow Springs Road, or those unknown things that were born from the evil of the mortal world, these things are the biggest obstacles to alchemy in the furnace.

But during the entire process of Ah Yuan refining the elixir, not a single evil spirit came to disturb him!"

Aunt Wang stared at him, "Do you think this is a natural Dan cultivator?"

Lin Wanmo asked in confusion, "Will those things definitely appear while the alchemy furnace is refining the elixir? Could it be that I'm just lucky this time?"

"It will definitely appear!" Aunt Wang continued, "And A-Yuan's control over the heat is perfect. Although his technique is still a little rusty, this feeling is innate."

Xu Yuan also came out.

Xu Yuan blushed a little at Aunt Wang's praise.

Xu Yuan knew that the evil spirits did not come because of his "no taboos" policy.

As for the control of the heat...

This might really be a talent.

It may also be the credit of "Five Ding Cooking".

Xu Yuan felt that he was only worth 30% of Aunt Wang's praise at most.

The stepmother came forward joyfully, patted Xu Yuan on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "It's already sixth-rate. I can finally explain this to my master."

"Go back to the government office and give Xiao Loufang the medicine."

Dafu looked back every few steps and kept looking at the alchemy room.

I feel that the medicinal residue inside is so fragrant, I really want to eat it...

As the three of them arrived at the door of the South City Patrol Office, they heard Lang Xiaoba shouting from inside: "He's running away again, stop him..."

Immediately afterwards, Xiao Loufang rushed out like a mad wild dog, pushing aside the two captains who were blocking the way!
