Qin Gengyun stepped into Chenshi and walked into Lingdanfang.
The owner of the workshop has not come back today, and the workshop is still deserted.
Even Yang Fengshan, who was the most diligent when the owner was there, didn't arrive.
Qin Gengyun shook his head, picked up the broom and cleaned the yard. He also cleaned the alchemy room and the low-grade spirit-gathering furnace commonly used by the owner.
While there was no one around, Qin Gengyun sat cross-legged in front of the spirit-gathering stove, gathered his mind, and soon his consciousness left his body.
He tried to control his spiritual consciousness and slowly penetrated into the Soul Gathering Furnace.
However, the material of this low-grade spirit-gathering furnace is thicker than an ordinary bronze furnace, and Qin Gengyun's consciousness, which has just entered the third level of Qi training, cannot completely penetrate the furnace wall.
Only a small head penetrated.
It is difficult to clearly see what is going on inside the furnace.
Only a vague glimpse of a formation on the bottom of the furnace could be seen.
This is the spirit gathering array.
An ordinary bronze furnace requires about one to two hundred spirit stones, while a spirit gathering furnace often requires thousands of spirit stones.
Apart from the material, the main difference lies in the spirit gathering array.
The alchemy furnace engraved with the spirit gathering array can gather the elixir fire more effectively. At the same time, it can be greatly improved in various stages such as chemical preparation, refining, fusion, spirit infusion, and elixir making, so that the final refined product can be greatly improved. The purity and grade of the elixir are better.
The spirit gathering array is also divided into levels according to its effectiveness.
This is also the difference between the three levels of Soul Gathering Furnace: lower, middle and upper.
That's why there is a saying, "Every alchemist's dream is to marry a spiritual planter and an array master."
If the alchemist can really find a Taoist companion who is a formation master, he will be like a fish in water, and good luck will come from heaven.
Qin Gengyun has always been unlucky, but he has never had such a dream. At this time, he withdrew his consciousness, stood up and walked to this low-grade spirit-gathering furnace.
Pick up the furnace cover and open the medicine door in the middle of the alchemy furnace to check.
Some high-quality spirit-gathering furnaces have spirit-gathering arrays engraved on the furnace lid, medicine entrance door, furnace bottom, and even the outer furnace body. However, the owner's one is obviously not that high-end and only has a spirit-gathering array at the bottom of the furnace.
This is the second-hand product that the shop owner spent 600 spirit stones in Fuyuan Pavilion after reaching the fourth level of Qi training and becoming a second-level alchemist.
Of course, the owner of the workshop also gave strict orders to the medicine attendants in the workshop. To the outside world, it must be said that this spirit-gathering furnace is a high-end product with thousands of spiritual stones.
Qin Gengyun sat back in front of the alchemy furnace again, recalling how he usually peeked outside to watch the master of the workshop refining alchemy. With a wave of his hand, he began to simulate refining "Qingfeng Powder" by himself.
"Madam, put some medicine into the furnace."
"Madam, light the elixir stone."
"Madam, please fan your husband hard."
"Madam, your husband has already become a pill, please take it out."
"Madam, uh..."
Forget it, Fellow Daoist Qiu probably won’t do this for me.
"Qin Gengyun, what are you doing?!"
A scolding sound came from the door, and Qin Gengyun quickly stood up, only to see Yang Fengshan striding in and looking at him sternly.
Qin Gengyun said: "Manager Yang, I've finished cleaning the alchemy furnace, let's take a rest."
"Go to the side to rest. Is this where you can sit?"
Yang Fengshan looked coldly and pointed at the futon Qin Gengyun was sitting on just now.
This was the place where his master could only sit when he was refining elixirs.
"I'm sorry, Manager Yang, I'll be out right away."
Qin Gengyun said calmly and walked out quickly.
"stop!"
Yang Fengshan stopped him coldly:
"The old alchemy room is under renovation for the past two days, and you are not allowed to go in. Do you hear me?"
Qin Gengyun was confused: "Didn't the owner of the workshop say that day that he would turn the old alchemy room into a reception room? Why is it being renovated again?"
Yang Fengshan walked up to him and sneered:
"What does the boss want to do? Do I still need to explain it to you?"
Qin Gengyun waved his hand quickly: "Manager Yang, I'm going to do something."
He walked out of the alchemy room and saw Wang Ping and Xu Li pretending to be sweeping the already clean yard with brooms. He shook his head and laughed, stepped forward and said:
"Fellow Daoist Wang, Fellow Daoist Xu, did you two go to Yihong Tower to listen to music last night?"
"Hey, fellow Daoist Qin is really our confidant!"
The two of them laughed, their legs were trembling, but their faces were flushed. Wang Ping stepped forward and whispered:
"You, Daoist Qin, don't know something. Yesterday, Yihong Tower had a new trick. It was really interesting."
Qin Gengyun smiled helplessly: "What new tricks are there?"
Xu Li looked into the alchemy room and came over dragging a broom with his eyebrows dancing:
"Those prostitutes all dyed their hair half fiery red and one half white, put on black gauze cloud pattern robes, danced enchantingly, and let you pick and choose. It is really breathtaking and has endless aftertaste!"
Qin Gengyun heard this interestingly and asked puzzledly: "Why do you dye your hair half red and half white, and wear a black gauze cloud pattern robe?"
Wang Ping patted him on the shoulder: "Fellow Daoist Qin, you don't know? Doesn't that Demon Sect Saint Xia Qinglian have long hair that is half fiery red and half snow white, and likes to wear black gauze and cloud pattern robes?"
Qin Gengyun suddenly asked: "Are they role-playing?"
"Role playing?" The two of them were startled, then they raised their hands and exclaimed:
"Fellow Daoist Qin, this is an apt description, it's role-playing!"
Xu Li shook his head: "Recently, the destruction of the Demon Sect has become a hot topic, especially the death of the Demon Sect Saint Xia Qinglian, which makes people sigh. Yihonglou's move is quite like the ancients!"
Qin Gengyun sneered: "You have coveted Xia Qinglian for a long time, but you only dared to secretly speculate when she was alive. Now that she is dead, can you finally reveal your thoughts?"
Wang Ping said sternly: "Fellow Daoist Qin, how can you accuse someone of innocence out of thin air? We are Yaxiu cultivators, and although Xia Qinglian has done many evil things, she is still considered to be unparalleled in beauty. We are only doing this out of regret for the beauty's fate."
Qin Gengyun was too lazy to talk nonsense with them and asked about the renovation of the old alchemy room. Xu Li looked at Yang Fengshan in the distance and whispered:
"This is strange to say. The owner of the shop didn't mention the renovation of the old house before he left, and..."
Xu Li hooked his fingers towards Qin Gengyun, motioning for him to come forward, and then whispered:
"I sneaked in and took a look just now. No one was repairing it, and the old alchemy furnace and spiritual fan were gone!"
...
night.
Qin Gengyun came to the night market.
"Hey, Fellow Daoist Qin, are you here to see Fellow Daoist Mo again?"
Huang Daoyou, who had just sold a yellow jade dragon, said to Qin Gengyun with a smile.
"Friend Huang Dao, business is booming."
Qin Gengyun responded with a smile. Mo Xiaolan, who was wearing a plain robe, was greeting the guests, while Qin Gengyun stood aside silently.
After a while, after selling two magical talismans, Noila Mo turned back and smiled brightly at Qin Gengyun:
"Fellow Daoist Qin, the seller has sent the alchemy furnace over. Let's go."
She asked fellow Daoist Huang to help take a look at her stall, and then took Qin Gengyun to the remote stall at the end of the East Market.
This time, the sloppy Daoist Zheng didn’t sleep. When he saw the two people arriving, he immediately said:
"follow me."
Qin Gengyun and Mo Xiaolan followed him into a nearby alley and walked along the winding path.
"By the way, Fellow Daoist Qin, Fellow Daoist Zheng helped us negotiate the price with the seller, and the seller is willing to drop three more spirit stones."
Noila Mo suddenly said.
"Really?" Qin Gengyun was overjoyed and said quickly:
"Fellow Daoist Mo, Fellow Daoist Zheng, thank you very much."
Twelve spiritual stones can buy a second-hand alchemy furnace and a low-grade spiritual fan. This is simply pie in the sky!
Fellow Daoist Zheng glanced back at him, then at Mo Xiaolan, and smiled:
"Fellow Daoist Qin is really lucky, haha!"
After walking for a while, we finally came to a dilapidated house. Fellow Daoist Zheng said:
"The seller didn't want to come forward, so I made an appointment with him. He would put the things in here, and you can check them out first."
Qin Gengyun nodded, and the three of them went in. A familiar bronze furnace appeared in front of him. Qin Gengyun was stunned:
"This is......"
