Chapter 256 Practice makes perfect, success will come one day
In desperation, and in order to be able to go to the treasury to search for treasures, Si Nansheng decided to teach Elder Dan how to make elixirs.
Elder Dan did not delay and took Si Nansheng to the Dan Pavilion. He prepared all the necessary medicinal materials and told others not to approach his private alchemy room.
"Senior, please refine the pill first for me to see." Si Nansheng looked at Elder Dan. Elder Dan did not feel annoyed at being ordered to do work by a junior, but started to refine the pill obediently.
Si Nansheng watched him operate step by step. When it came to the critical part of removing the poison, he actually skipped it. Si Nansheng raised his eyebrows, said nothing, and continued to watch him operate.
After a batch of pills was refined, Elder Dan looked at Si Nansheng with burning eyes.
"There is nothing wrong with the steps, but why don't you get rid of the poison?" Si Nansheng looked at Elder Dan in confusion, and Elder Dan looked innocent.
To remove erysipelas?
Which step is to get rid of erysipelas?
"Perhaps, he simply doesn't know when to go to Dandu." Zhang Ju spoke slowly from the side, and Si Nansheng understood.
"Let me refine it once, and you can see how it differs from mine." Si Nansheng walked forward, processed the herbs, lit the fire and started refining.
Elder Dan watched quietly. At the beginning, the refining steps were the same as his. But after all the herbs were refined, Si Nansheng suddenly increased the heat.
Moreover, it was not in an instant. It took almost a cup of tea before Si Nansheng began to condense the pill.
After the pill refined by Si Nansheng came out of the furnace, she handed the pill directly to Elder Dan.
"There is no poison, there is really no poison." Elder Dan was so excited that he almost jumped up.
"Don't just be happy about it. Have you noticed something is wrong?" Zhang Ju said, and Elder Dan immediately put away his excitement.
"Is it when you just increased the heat?" Elder Dan looked at Si Nansheng and asked. Si Nansheng nodded, motioning him to continue.
“…” But Elder Dan knew what Si Nansheng did when he increased the heat, but he didn’t know what it was exactly?
"High temperatures can separate the toxins from the liquid medicine. When controlling the temperature to separate the toxins, you also need to use your spiritual power to protect the efficacy of the liquid medicine. If the temperature is too high, it will also damage the efficacy of the liquid medicine.
If you can't guarantee the efficacy of the medicine, then when separating the toxins, don't insist on completely eliminating them."
Si Nansheng looked at Elder Dan and spoke slowly. Elder Dan understood what Si Nansheng meant and continued to refine the elixir.
As a result, when they tried to separate the toxin for the first time, the furnace exploded. Fortunately, Si Nansheng, Zhang Ju and the others were relatively far away, otherwise they would have been affected.
"The fire is too big." Si Nansheng shouted. Elder Dan used a cleansing spell to clean himself and the furnace, and then continued refining.
Although the refining was successful this time and the poison was reduced, it cannot be considered a success.
"You're being too cautious. You haven't controlled the heat to its limit. Also, the time is too short. Increase the heat a bit and allow for a longer separation time to better feel the changes in the herbs."
Si Nansheng walked over, took a pill, looked at it, and spoke to Elder Dan.
"Okay, I'll try again." Elder Dan began to continue refining the pill.
Si Nansheng looked at it with great boredom and fell asleep without knowing when.
Nan Qingge looked at Si Nansheng leaning in her arms, then looked at Elder Dan who was still immersed in refining the elixir, sighed, and waited obediently.
Although most of Elder Dan's pills were successful, the amount of poison in them varied and was completely unstable. Fortunately, he was very patient in refining pills.
If it doesn’t work once, try it twice, three times, four times…
Practice makes perfect, and you will succeed one day.
When he finally refined a batch of pills that contained no more than half the poison, he looked so excited that he was even happier than a child who had eaten candy.
"Although I still haven't refined a completely poison-free pill, this is still a big improvement. I can teach the disciples of the Dan Pavilion to practice together."
Elder Dan wiped the sweat from his face. He was indeed old. He was so tired in just a short while.
If Nan Qingge and the others knew what he was thinking, they would probably start scolding him.
What Elder Dan meant by a while is a day and a night?
Elder Zhang Ju had already left. Bai Ye and Shang Ming waited for Si Nansheng for a whole day but he didn't come back, so they came to find him. If Si Nansheng hadn't been sleeping, they would have left long ago.
"Elder, you have been busy for a whole day and night. Take a rest. Let's take Shengsheng back first." Nan Qingge stood up, and Bai Ye also stood up and picked up Si Nansheng.
"Hey?" Elder Dan looked at them, wanting to keep them for a while longer, but when he saw Si Nansheng sleeping soundly, he could only swallow back what he was about to say.
As Bai Ye was leaving Dan Pavilion with Si Nansheng in his arms, Si Nansheng jumped out of Bai Ye's arms, scaring Bai Ye.
"Junior sister, aren't you asleep?" Bai Ye asked in confusion.
"I fell asleep. I woke up when you said you were leaving, but I didn't open my eyes. Otherwise, do you think we could have gotten out?"
Si Nansheng drooped his shoulders weakly, and Nan Qingge held back her laughter and remained silent.
This little girl is really smart!
Walking all the way back to the residence, Si Nansheng was fully awake. He sat in the yard and took out the box that contained the magic seed.
Si Nansheng: I always feel that absorbing demonic energy at this time will scare other people, or I will be regarded as an alien!
"Junior sister, do you think Elder Dan can refine a pill without poison?" Bai Ye looked at Si Nansheng, who frowned.
“Although he has a talent for refining pills, he is not good at controlling fire, so it is difficult for him to refine pills without poison.
However, it would be nice to be able to refine a pill with less toxicity, right? "Si Nansheng said it implicitly, and Nan Qingge sighed.
If Elder Dan heard this, he would definitely cry, right?
However, Nan Qingge did not know how to refine pills, so he did not know how difficult it was to refine a non-toxic pill.
However, when she saw Elder Dan was very excited because the elixir he refined was less toxic, she felt that Si Nansheng was very powerful.
"By the way, Shengsheng, Elder Dan asked you to go to his medicine field to pick some necessary herbs. When you are free, I will take you there." Nan Qingge looked at Si Nansheng, and Si Nansheng put away the box in his hand.
"Go now!"
"Let's go." Nan Qingge smiled and led the way.
Si Nansheng, who had just returned to the yard, went out again in high spirits.
Bai Ye and Shang Ming looked at each other and followed helplessly.
At the foot of the mountain behind Dan Pavilion, there is a very simple courtyard. Surrounding the courtyard are patches of medicinal fields, covering a large area.
"Senior Sister Nan?" The little herbalist who was guarding the herb field saw Nan Qingge and her men coming over, and hurriedly put down the herbal scissors in his hand and walked over.
"What are you doing?" Nan Qingge looked at the other medicine boys busy in the medicine field in confusion.
"There are bugs in the herb fields, and they're catching them. Master has already informed me. Senior Sister Nan, just go and pick any herbs you need."
The medicine boy spoke to Nan Qingge embarrassedly. Nan Qingge nodded, and the medicine boy went to get busy.
Si Nansheng watched them checking each medicinal herb one by one and felt tired for them.
Can't we think of a way to save both energy and time?
