There are mountains and water, wind and meat, hot pot and beauties, mostly young people, having a lively time together, and it is easy to forget the trouble of not being able to go home.
In fact, after more than half a year of experience, many previous concepts are slowly changing. Secondary school in the mundane world, laziness, anger, male silence and female tears, workplace rivalry, etc., in this new era, they are like children playing around.
The buttocks sit higher, and the vision is naturally higher.
Everyone had a very happy New Year's Eve. Xiao Zhai still didn't come back, so he sent a message saying that he was on the other side of the East China Sea. Gu Yu didn't even have time, so he kept tinkering with the materials of Qi Ju Pill.
Only Xiaoqiu and Xiaojin showed up and said a few words casually, then ran to Cuanyun Peak with a few jars of wine, and chatted quietly all night...
After the end of the year, Gu Yu kept his promise and designated a large piece of land at the eastern foot of Fenghuang Mountain to grow new rice.
Nowadays, with the construction of urban agglomerations, the space is infinitely compressed. In the past, the farmland was either polluted or occupied by exotic animals. Except for the large-scale planting fields in the agricultural base, the surrounding urban agglomerations can only be planted at random.
Liaodong is a large grain-producing province, and there are many disasters. Baicheng is the most comfortable, so it undertakes part of the province's food supply. The government clearly stated that if rice is grown, it must be purchased at a high price.
whispering sound!
Gu Yu is so dumb, do I need your little money? It's just this trick, which makes people very uncomfortable.
Time passed by, and around mid-March, a message came from Qi Yun, saying that Liuyini had been blended.
Tianzhu Mountain, a Taoist temple.
Gu Yu followed Lu Yuanqing and others around the main building complex, and arrived at an open space halfway up the mountain. He looked at a strange house and wondered: "Is this the legendary alchemy house?"
"Exactly."
"It's a bit too small. You guys aren't afraid of fryers or carbon monoxide poisoning?"
"Just kidding, this is built under the guidance of Senior Wu himself, so it must be safe and worry-free." Lu Yuanqing said.
No wonder Gu Yu complained that the house was 3 feet long, 1.6 feet wide, and the windows were 4 feet wide. And in the center of the alchemy room, there is a pit stove 8 inches high and 24 inches wide, which is used to place the alchemy stove.
So, this is a rectangular room, the space is cramped, and you can't use your feet at all.
"The younger generation is ignorant, our alchemy chambers are all like this, so what is carbon monoxide poisoning?" Wu Shan couldn't help but reprimanded him.
"it's okay no problem."
That guy waved his hand, he didn't want to explain what carbon monoxide was to a Ming Dynasty man.
"Layman, this is the Liuyi mud we blended, please have a look."
Shi Yunlai carefully held a lump of stuff and approached it, Gu Yu took a look, it was white like dough, very soft and sticky to the touch.
The most special thing is that it has no weight, and it is a complete body, which cannot be torn apart.
"Liuyi mud was first seen in the "Huangdi Jiuding Shendan Jing". Six plus one material, one is the number of heaven, and six is the number of earth. It means that the sky is full of water, and the earth is 60% of it."
Wu Shan is very conscientious in popularizing science, and introduced: "The refining of Waidan must be equal to the number of heaven and earth, so six plus one mud is used as raw material. .”
Oh I got it!
Gu Yu understood that the most important thing about the pill furnace is not the material of the body, but how to seal it tightly so that the essence of the pill can be kept in the cauldron during the refining process and cannot be leaked out.
Liuyi mud has this function.
"That's it, Senior Wu, what kind of alchemy furnace do you want to refine, do you have a sketch for me to see?"
"Come inside!"
Wu Shan led him into the alchemy room, followed by the phantom, and released a burst of spiritual consciousness. Gu Yu also poked out one, reluctantly making friends with it, and receiving information.
The two entangled for a long time before he fully understood, nodded and said: "There is no skill, it just takes a little time."
"That's why I asked you to help, their mana can't support it at all."
Xu Yingte took an abstract glance outside and asked, "When did you start?"
"Just now."
"Okay! The materials are here, take them at will."
Wu Shan was very happy, he went out to drive everyone away, while he flew around the alchemy room, as if he was protecting it.
Gu Yu ignored him, sat next to the pit stove, first checked the materials, and then sat quietly to adjust his breath. When the energy and spirit reached a state of fullness, he picked up a piece of green wood and threw it into the stove, pointing it with his finger.
puff!
A cluster of flames rose and quickly engulfed the entire log. And with a movement in his heart, he took out two red flame fruits and threw them in.
call!
The red flame fruit contains a powerful fire aura, and the fire is fierce in an instant, like a red snake dancing wildly, and the indoor temperature is also soaring.
He increased the melting power of the flame little by little, from red to blue, from green to white, followed by a small transport technique, and sent the pile of materials into the stove.
On the one hand, the high temperature must be ensured, and on the other hand, the material must be wrapped with spiritual consciousness, and slowly shaped, which consumes unimaginable mana. His spiritual power is self-generated, and he can still handle it. He still has the leisure to take out the gourd and drink two sips of spiritual wine from time to time.
This practice lasted for five full days.
Wu Shan stayed outside all the time, paying attention to the movement inside the house. Lu Yuanqing and others also came to watch from time to time.
"It should be almost there."
He estimated the time and said, "No accident, it will be done tonight."
"Then let's wait together." Lu Yuanqing said.
Wu Shan guessed right, the pile of materials was not what it used to be, it had turned into a pill furnace embryo, wrapped in fire like a baby and sleeping.
Gu Yu was exhausted, but at the most critical moment, he dared not be careless. He stared at the slowly rotating embryo, grasping the best timing, when suddenly he raised his hand, and the ball of mud flew into it.
call!
The flames flickered wildly, and suddenly shrunk, concentrating around the embryo, forming a white outline.
I saw that the Liuyi mud gradually melted and thickened, and slowly flowed on the embryo, filling the tiny gaps between materials, making the pill furnace round and complete.
After an unknown amount of time, when he was almost unable to hold on anymore, he suddenly heard a shout from outside: "Take it!"
Gu Yu subconsciously weakened the fire, and heard another sound, boom!
The alchemy room trembled, and the alchemy stove flew up high, then fell slowly, and slammed into the pit stove.
"It's finally over!"
He let out a breath and looked at his work carefully.
This is different from the one in Tianshi Mansion, which is a three-story, round-bellied tripod. This statue is two tripods of water and fire, with a circumference of twelve inches to correspond to the twelve months and twelve news hexagrams, and a length of eight inches to correspond to the eight festivals.
The water cauldron is on the top and the fire cauldron is on the bottom. This is called "Jiji furnace", which comes from the name of the sixty-four hexagrams in "Book of Changes". The fire cauldron is used to place materials, and the water cauldron holds water, which plays the role of cooling and sublimation, and there are pipes connected.
The body of the vessel is yellow-brown, as if made of brass, with a faint luster.
"Layman?"
"Layman?"
There were a few calls from outside, so Gu Yu had no choice but to stand up, push the door out, and said with a smile: "Fortunately, the furnace is ready."
After being affirmed by the other party, Lu Yuanqing and others all showed joy, and saluted together: "Thank you!"
"No, it's just an equivalent exchange."
"Oh, that's what I said, but you don't have to help."
Lu Yuanqing smiled, presented a jade slip, and said: "This is the formula of Liuyi Ni and the materials needed for refining the alchemy furnace."
"Um."
Gu Yu was not worried that the other party would be deceived, so he took it and kept it.
Immediately, those people went in to check the alchemy furnace, and Wu Shan said: "How do you feel, can you hold on?"
"Can."
"Okay, go back and talk."
The two left the alchemy room, returned to the Taoist temple, and entered the small courtyard. Gu Yu sat down on the stone bench, and said directly: "Let's not bother, what exactly do you want from me?"
"No hurry, listen to me."
The phantom floated above the wine cup and said: "I have been in Tianzhu Mountain for eight months, and I have a more or less clear understanding of this era. I have spent more than five hundred years in emptiness, and the familiar things are gone. This environment I don't like it very much, but I have to cater to it. The only benefit of it is the revival of spiritual energy, and it is the opening of a prosperous age of cultivation. You may have guessed that I am committed to the Taoist monastery because the power here is weak. I join I will get the most convenient conditions. I think Guangyao Lushan's lintel, but there are too many constraints, and I am in this state of mind and soul, and I can't do anything about many things. After thinking about it, I only have to reincarnate. Further…”
Xu Ying waved his hand, interrupted the opponent, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, before I reincarnate, I will definitely lay all the foundations, so as not to worry about the future."
"So you came to me?"
"That's right, you're the only human immortal, and I need to borrow your strength in many places."
"..."
Gu Yu pondered for a while, and said: "You have figured it out. It is always good to have a goal. You must have investigated me. I have always adhered to the principle of exchange and shared interests. You know what I want."
"Hehe, I'm already a human being, and everyone wants to go further. Although I've lost my soul, I still have some understanding of the way of the gods."
With a flash of red light, it suddenly flew close and asked, "Do you know what this world is made of?"
Um
Gu Yu was stunned, and replied: "According to modern science, it is made of matter. We live on the earth, and the universe is outside the earth, and the universe was formed by the big bang.
According to my personal understanding, it is composed of four realms.
The first is Tao, the origin of the universe.
The second is qi, that is, time, space, nothingness, yin and yang, five elements, etc. derived from qi.
The third is the soul, that is, the realm of the soul, soul, consciousness, gender, thought...
The fourth is people, that is, the place where we live.
The Tao produces all things, and the Tao is in all things. These are all part of the great cycle of the universe. "
"..."
After he finished speaking, Wu Shan was also taken aback, and sighed: "You can explore this level by yourself without relying on the teacher's guidance. It is opposite to heaven, earth, gods, and people. These four realms are handed down from generation to generation, and they are improved step by step. Transforming Qi is infinitely close to Dao, but it is still not Dao.”
Wu Shan whirled around, and continued: "If you want to understand the way of the gods, it's actually very simple. Remember one sentence: the god of the valley is immortal, it is called the mysterious female. The gate of the mysterious female is the root of heaven and earth. If you save it, don’t use it diligently... "
