"Except for kelp ash, it seems impossible to exist."
Patisipachio thought for a while, then cast his gaze on a wall: "Impolita, take me to see that Paracelsus."
Yin Polita responded, straightened her clothes and stood up. She led Patisipaccio around the mansion several times, and finally came to an inconspicuous room. She took out a bunch of keys, selected one from them, and opened the door to the room.
There were many discarded clutter piled up in the room, covered with dust. There was a slightly damaged bed in the corner of the room. Yin Polita cleared away the clutter, and then moved the bed to the cleared space. The entrance to the cellar was hidden on the floor exposed after the bed was removed. Yin Polita chose another key and opened the cellar door. Then she lit a candle in the utility room and led the Governor down to the cellar.
The cellar is much larger than expected. After turning a few corners downward, a huge alchemy laboratory appeared in front. All the alchemy equipment that alchemists can think of is available here. The only drawback is that the lighting here is not very good. Except for the candle in Yinpolita's hand that was on, the candlesticks fixed on the walls around the laboratory were now extinguished, which made it difficult for Patisipaccio to see clearly what was going on in the laboratory.
"What about Paracelsus? Doesn't he need lighting?"
"Who knows, maybe he just turned into a mouse."
Impolita mocked Paracelsus before lighting the candlesticks around the room. While lighting the last menorah, she noticed Paracelsus lying in the corner.
"Fat pig, get up quickly."
Imperita sneered and dripped the hot wax oil towards Paracelsus' face. Paracelsus screamed, covered his face and woke up.
Patisipachio squinted his eyes and asked, "Paracelsus, it's daytime, and you're sleeping here?"
While Paracelsus wiped away the candle oil dripping on his face with his clothes, he glared angrily at the maid who poured candle oil on his face: "It's so dark here that you can't tell whether it's day or night." night!"
Patisipachio snorted: "That does make some sense."
During this time, Impolita brought him a chair, and Patisipaccio sat on it, causing the chair to squeak. Patisipaccio pressed his body against the back of the chair, and the chair made another unpleasant sound.
Due to excessive exercise, Patisipaccio's face was sweating profusely. Yinpolita took out her handkerchief again and wiped it off for him. Patisipachio sat on the chair and took a few breaths, and then continued: "As for the scandal, although your illegitimate daughter has been temporarily released, the accounts have not been purchased and sold. If you can't make it on time, She will become the fire of the ocean, I can’t guarantee what she will encounter!”
"Made on time?" Paracelsus pushed back, "You can't even raise all the raw materials for me, so how can I prepare Ocean Fire?"
"I heard Yinpolita say that the raw materials you asked for are flammable water, suffocating air, and cold fire." At this point, Patisipaccio's voice suddenly became louder, "Water extinguishes fire. , how can it burn? With air, how can people suffocate? And fire, how can it be cold? The adjective you used and the noun that followed it are completely contradictory, just like the square circle and the tall dwarf , like ugly beauties, completely meaningless! Are you treating us as fools?"
"A wise man knows he knows nothing, but an ignorant man thinks he knows everything. Fortunately, I have prepared some flammable water and suffocating air myself, which should be able to dispel your doubts."
As he spoke, Paracelsus picked up a cup from the table and shook it towards the governor and the maid. The cup contains a transparent liquid that looks exactly like water from a distance.
"This is the essence I distill from wine. It is the essence that gives wine its strength and nature. It is as eternal as the stars. You can try to immerse the flesh in this water, and the flesh will be preserved for a long time and will not rot anymore." - Because it is the water of life."
Patisipachio glanced at the liquid in the cup suspiciously: "Is this the 'flammable water' you call it?"
"Yes." Paracelsus replied, "It is flammable. And it is drinkable like water. Do you want me to take a sip and show you?"
"Let me try it!"
Impolita snatched the cup from Paracelsus without any explanation. She tilted the beaker slightly and held the candle over the liquid. There was a "hoo" sound, and a ball of fire came out of the cup - the transparent liquid began to burn.
The eyes of Yinpolita and Patisipachio seemed to have seen a miracle.
"Although the maid is cruel, I still want to gently remind you that the cup will be burned very quickly. If you don't want to burn your hands, just put the cup down."
Yinpolita hurriedly put the cup on the table.
"Originally, if the maid wanted to try it, she should have poured out a little bit." Paracelsus said slowly, "Pour it out now. The whole glass of water of life has been ignited. It takes a lot to prepare this large glass again. It will take a lot of effort, so don’t blame me if the construction period is delayed by then?"
Yinpolita cast a panicked look at Patisipachio asking for instructions. Patisipachio stared at her and yelled: "Idiot! What are you looking at me doing? Go and put out the fire!"
Yin Polita quickly scooped up a large glass of water and poured it towards the burning cup. Unexpectedly, when the flame touched the water, there was no sign of extinguishing at all. Yin Polita was anxious, grabbed a big bucket and was about to throw it on the fire. But I heard Paracelsus gloating on the side: "Be careful, if the water of life overflows, the fire may burn outside the cup!"
Patisipaccio hurriedly picked up a cup and threw it at Yinpolita: "Idiot! You added ordinary water, can this cup of flammable water still be used?" Then he turned to Parra and whispered to Parra. Celsus said: "Master, please put out this fire quickly, don't really burn it out..."
Paracelsus shook his head, took a lid and put it on the cup. When he took the lid off the cup again after a while, the fire had gone out.
"By the way... isn't this already indestructible when exposed to water?" Patisipaccio patted his head, "Is this the secret of the ocean fire?"
"It's still very early," Paracelsus said. "I said, this is just one of the necessary conditions for preparing ocean fire."
