So, for several days, Shen Jianxin was studying this book.
Shen Jianxin was originally a person who liked to read books, but this research made him see many ways in the book.
This book is an introductory book for Taoist alchemy. It not only introduces the basic knowledge of alchemy, but also teaches the methods of alchemy.
After being refined, this elixir not only has the effect of strengthening the body, but also can make the Qi flow smooth and improve the sense of Qi.
If you leave, you will leave yourself and resonate with the heaven and the earth. Qi sense is the first step for a warrior to enter the room. Only when you practice Qi can you have the theory of internal skill.
It seems that the slovenly Taoist is still rough on the outside and delicate on the inside. He taught himself how to practice this little Li Dan in the hope that he could make a further progress in the martial arts.
Thinking about this, Shen Jianxin's affection for Taoist Zhang Danfeng increased.
Strange to say, since Shen Jianxin fought that fight and was called by Zhang Danfeng alone, the attitude of the daotong and Taoist priests in the whole Danding palace has changed.
At least no one actively provoked him, and the chores that used to be imposed on him disappeared.
Many of the disciples of the Danding palace seemed to know that this fool was favored by Zhang Zhenren, and they were polite to him. Many people would take the initiative to say hello when they saw him.
After all, in the past few years, those who went out of the Danding palace were always bullied on the dragon and tiger mountain. Finally, a bold man came out and beat several beloved disciples of the Heavenly Master. Moreover, there was nothing wrong with him. His chivalrous behavior naturally made his companions admire him and even more reluctant to provoke him easily.
Shen Jianxin alone occupied a room of alchemy. After reading and understanding Xiaoli alchemy, he tried to make alchemy.
"The maiden on the river is the most spiritual. She flies when she gets the fire. She doesn't see the dust. The ghost is hidden and the dragon is hidden. She doesn't know where she is. She wants to make it, and the yellow bud is the root..." Shen Jianxin recites the prescription of Dan, and then throws the materials needed for alchemy into the cauldron in turn.
There are plenty of materials in this Dan room, not to mention the little Li Dan. There are all kinds of materials such as alchemy jade tongshou Dan, but no one can be sure to refine them.
Shen Jianxin is also very curious. He secretly contrasts the two things of alchemy and medicine.
The skill of refining medicine is quite handy for me, but it seems that there is a word refining in this way, but the result is quite different.
The purpose of refining medicine is very obvious. The purpose is to cure the disease. The ultimate goal of alchemy is to live a long life with heaven and earth. This is the difference between a temporary cure and a permanent cure.
Diseases can be cured by medicine and stone, but longevity has never been seen.
According to the records of the Sutra of Dan, there are generally two ways of alchemy. One is to act on the human body and take longevity as the ultimate goal. However, in this process, many categories of physical fitness have been derived, and even evolved into the purpose of promoting the martial arts to strengthen their physique.
As for another way, it is to turn stone into gold. The ancients hoped that through alchemy, the ore would be refined into precious metals headed by gold and silver. Explosives such as gunpowder are the products of this school.
Shen Jianxin doesn't want to blow himself up in the pill room, so he is more inclined to take longevity as his goal and act on the cultivation of pills in the human body.
Although the truth is clear, the success rate of alchemy is much lower than that of medicine.
Shen Jianxin used the medicine King tripod to refine medicine. He almost succeeded, but rarely failed. However, after several rounds of refining, he was meticulous in accordance with the prescription, but the result was that all of them were discarded, and none of them was made.
However, this also aroused Shen Jianxin's competitive heart. He had to be patient and went to the danfang library to read the books and study the reasons for his failure.
For example, it is recorded in the book shentongqi wuxianglei miyao that alchemy is closely related to the principles of Li, Qi and number.
Although the probability of failure in alchemy can be attributed to negligence in the process of alchemy, it can also be attributed to fate, which is the other side of number. According to this book, a man must be destined to be immortal in order to become a golden elixir, or he will fail.
This kind of mysterious and mysterious statement made Shen Jianxin confused and disapproved.
For a moment, he couldn't find any ideas, so he wandered to other danfang, hoping to find some inspiration.
"Yes! Yes! ha-ha! I made it
At this moment, in front of Shen Jianxin, a Taoist with yellow robes is dancing wildly, because the cauldron of pills in front of him is sending out a gurgling fragrance, and the whole Dan room is full of fragrance.
They are almost the same danfang. Some people succeed and some people fail. Is it true that there is a theory of good character? Shen Jianxin's face was full of doubts, and he thought to himself.
Maybe it was a flash of inspiration in his mind that Shen Jianxin suddenly had an idea and quietly used the technique of observing Qi in wuliuzhenjing.
This look, as expected to see some clues.
Just now that a furnace of Dan Cheng, Dan furnace purple dense, is a good omen. However, the Yellow robed Taoist himself was weak and weak, just like he didn't sleep well for several days and nights.
Shen Jianxin secretly remembers the example of this furnace of Dan Cheng, and changes another Dan room.
This time, in front of this furnace Dan floating above is a light white gas, powerless.
Sure enough, the furnace was destroyed when it opened, leaving only one furnace of slag.
Shen Jianxin changed another room. The furnace in front of him was filled with black gas. Without waiting for Shen Jianxin to be surprised, he only heard a loud noise. The furnace exploded, and the air wave would lift the alchemist directly. If Shen Jianxin hadn't put his hand on it, he might have hit his head on the wall and died.
After seeing all kinds of alchemy methods and results, Shen Jianxin knew more and more well.
Back in his small Dan room, Shen Jianxin starts the fire again, puts the materials for refining xiaolidan into the furnace evenly, and then sits in front of the Dan furnace with his knees crossed.
Concentrate on the tranquil Qi, quietly release one's own Qi, control it in the minimum range, activate the vitality of heaven and earth in the Dan room, and slowly inject it into the Dan furnace.
Shen Jianxin is very cautious. He doesn't want to expose his Qi on the dragon and tiger mountain. He just tries to see what will happen if he introduces the vitality of heaven and earth into the Dan furnace.
At the same time, Shen Jianxin, with the skill of observing Qi, has been paying attention to the changes of qi movement above the Dan furnace.
With the gradual injection of the vitality of heaven and earth, the Qi above the Dan stove first turned from white to green, then from green to purple, and finally the purple became deeper and deeper, and changed to purple and gold.
Shen Jianxin saw that this had changed, and cut off the input of the vitality of heaven and earth.
All of a sudden, the cauldron was buzzing and the hearth was shaking.
Then, the whole floor also seems to shake with the furnace, followed by rhythmic shaking.
At this time, a figure rushed into the Dan room quickly, with a palm on the stove cover.
Bang! I only heard a crisp sound, like the broken glass, and like the collision of ice in the clear spring on the high mountain.
The strange sound lasted for about a cup of hot tea until the fire went out.
Shen Jianxin retreated to one side for a long time, just observing each other's technique quietly.
Because the man who rushed in was Zhang Danfeng, the chief Celestial Master of Danding palace.
Zhang Danfeng's face was full of surprise. He grabbed and sucked out more than ten round pills like pearls.
The whole danfang immediately spread a refreshing fragrance.
"What is this? Little Lidan Zhang Danfeng asked hesitantly.
Shen Jianxin certainly won't answer, because he hasn't even seen Xiao Li Dan himself. This is the first time for Dan Cheng.
"Hell! Boundless heaven! What did you do? " Zhang Danfeng's eyes were bright and bright. He asked in a deep voice.
Shen Jianxin opened his mouth and quickly shook his head.
"Do you know what this is?" Zhang Danfeng asked again.
Shen Jianxin shook his head faster and more determined.
I don't know what it is! But look at this slovenly Taoist's eyes, you can see that he must have become, and it's still a very successful one. But why is he so scared? Did you go too far?
"Of course you don't know what it is! Genius! You are a real Dandao genius! You've taken out such a fine little Lidan! " Zhang Danfeng's face was full of amazement.
"Why don't you try another furnace?" Zhang Danfeng thought about it and said.
