Chapter 28 Immortal Gourd
In the alchemy furnace, nine round and flawless blood-colored elixirs, like pearls, lay there.
Mr. Xu rushed to the Dan stove and was stunned on the spot when he saw the situation in the stove.
Lin Mu had no time to pay attention to Mr. Xu.
After opening the furnace lid, he quickly put on silk gloves and put all the elixirs into the jade bottle that had been prepared nearby.
Opening the furnace and sealing the bottle can better preserve the medicinal properties, which is common sense in alchemy.
"What a shame."
Lin Mu's heart was full of regrets and he sighed secretly, "If this hadn't been my first time refining elixirs, I would be relatively unfamiliar in many places. With the experience passed down by my teacher, it would take at least ten, or even twelve, pills to refine such low-level elixirs. "
"Nine pills, actually nine pills, a nine-tenths chance of becoming a pill..."
Not far away, Mr. Xu stood there in a daze, muttering to himself in disbelief.
Fortunately, he didn't know Lin Mu's thoughts, otherwise he might have vomited blood. For him, a nine-tenths rate of elixir formation was astonishing enough.
"Be content and take nine pills. It's much better than before when I couldn't even afford one pill."
Lin Mu was not a greedy person. He regained his composure in an instant, looked at Lin Xiaowan, and said with a smile: "Shopkeeper, the elixir is ready, I will take my leave for now."
Although he still wanted to talk to Lin Xiaowan a few more words, he could only endure it with an outsider like Mr. Xu around.
"etc."
Seeing Lin Mu was about to leave, Mr. Xu finally came to his senses and hurriedly stopped him.
"What else can Mr. Xu do?" Lin Mu turned his head in surprise.
"that……"
Mr. Xu rubbed his hands and said with an embarrassed look on his face: "Can you show me the health elixir you refined?"
"Here." After hearing this, Lin Mu threw the medicine bottle over.
After taking the medicine bottle, Mr. Xu breathed a sigh of relief. He was really worried that Accountant Lin Mu would not give him the medicine because of the previous incident.
Then he gathered his thoughts and carefully opened the bottle cap, and a scent of elixir suddenly came out, making his pores relax.
"Good Dan."
Mr. Xu became even more impatient, quickly poured out a pill, and observed it carefully.
"Um?"
After a moment, Mr. Xu's eyes suddenly shrank, with a look of disbelief on his face, "This...is this a pill pattern?"
"This pill seems to have fine lines on it."
Lin Xiaowan also looked over curiously.
"How is it possible that one of the nine pills has pill marks?" Mr. Xu said in disbelief.
Lin Xiaowan blinked: "Mr. Xu, there seems to be more than one. The pills in the medicine bottle also have pill patterns."
Hearing this, Mr. Xu suddenly felt excited all over, and he quickly poured other elixirs into his palms.
"One, two...nine..."
Mr. Xu's hands were shaking uncontrollably, "All nine pills have pill patterns. It's impossible. How is this possible..."
"Is it difficult to refine the pill pattern?" Lin Xiaowan asked in surprise.
"Disaster?"
Mr. Xu looked excited, even fanatical, "It's not only difficult, it's simply unbelievable."
"Shopkeeper, do you know that in addition to grade, elixirs also have textures. The higher the quality of elixirs, the better the efficacy."
"Alchemy-level elixirs are definitely holy elixirs. Their efficacy is usually more than three times that of ordinary elixirs, and their value is also inestimable."
"To be honest, I have never seen pill patterns even in the entire Tianyuan Mansion, let alone Xichuan City. This is the first time I have seen them."
Lin Xiaowan was dumbfounded when he heard this. I just saw the young master making this batch of elixirs easily. How could they be so powerful?
"Ahem..."
Lin Mu coughed a few times and said, "Mr. Xu, have you seen enough? If you have seen enough, just return the elixir to me."
Mr. Xu's reaction made him realize that he seemed to have gone too far this time.
He didn't expect beforehand that a few pills he randomly refined based on Wu Qingyun's memory would have such a big impact on Mr. Xu.
"It seems that I have far underestimated the teacher's level of alchemy. In the future, I will never make alchemy in front of outsiders until I have sufficient strength."
After learning this lesson, Lin Mu couldn't help but feel a little more cautious.
"No, you can sell me this bottle of elixir. You can ask for whatever price you want." Mr. Xu held the bottle tightly.
Lin Mu subconsciously wanted to refuse, but then he thought about it. He owns the immortal gourd. As long as he has ready-made elixirs and enough materials, he can copy them infinitely.
Now that you have the opportunity, why not take the opportunity to ask for more medicinal materials?
As for the elixir, just keep one for yourself!
Thinking of this, Lin Mu laughed: "Okay, except for one I want to keep for myself, I can sell the other eight to you."
"But you don't need me to tell you how precious the pill pattern is. If you want it, just ask for it yourself, otherwise there will be no other way. As for the price, I advise you to think about it before making an offer. Otherwise, I believe that the auction house will also welcome these. It’s the elixir.”
Mr. Xu was not surprised but overjoyed when he heard this. He originally thought that it would take some convincing to persuade Lin Mu to sell this batch of pills.
After all, elixirs with elixir patterns are hard to come by. Many alchemists may only refine elixir patterns a few times in their lifetime. Once they are refined, they are regarded as treasures.
Now that Lin Mu is willing to sell, the next thing will undoubtedly be much easier to handle.
After pondering for a long time, Mr. Xu gritted his teeth and stretched out five fingers: "How about five hundred gold coins for each pill?"
Five hundred gold coins is equivalent to fifty thousand copper coins, and nine coins are four hundred and fifty thousand. With this amount of money, you can be considered a small rich man.
"Mr. Xu, you are really cheating. Nine pills cost more than 4,000 gold coins. You actually wanted to buy the entire prescription for 1,000 gold coins before." Lin Xiaowan said dissatisfied.
Mr. Xu's face turned red: "How do I know that this kid can actually produce elixir patterns by refining elixirs?"
Lin Mu didn't blame Mr. Xu. Although he himself knew that the recipe for the health-preserving pill cost more than a thousand gold coins, he didn't expect it to be so valuable.
Moreover, the price of five hundred gold coins per pill is indeed not low.
"Deal." Lin Mu made a decision immediately, "But you will also give me an additional 100 health elixirs. Is that okay?"
"No problem, haha, of course no problem." Mr. Xu was so excited that he spoke incoherently.
While Lin Xiaowan was helping Lin Mu grab the medicine, Mr. Xu casually threw a jade token to Lin Mu: "Here, this is the VIP jade from the Wind Chime Medicine Pavilion. With it, you can enter and exit the Wind Chime Medicine Pavilion at will."
Half a quarter of an hour later, the transaction was finally completed, and Lin Mu quietly returned to the Lin Mansion with a hundred health elixirs.
Close the door.
Lin Mu's mind moved slightly, and the Immortal Refining Gourd suddenly appeared in his hand.
"Immortal Gourd, I hope you won't disappoint me."
After all, this was his first time using the Immortal Gourd, so he was inevitably a little nervous.
"call."
After taking a long breath and calming down a little, Lin Mu opened the bag of medicinal materials and took out a pair of medicinal materials.
First, he put the prepared health elixir into the gourd, and then poured in the medicinal materials. Then Lin Mu stopped moving his eyes and stared closely at the inside of the gourd.
I thought it would take a long time to wait, but unexpectedly, just a moment later, a burst of white mist filled with the fragrance of red rose floated out of the gourd.
"impossible?"
Lin Mu couldn't believe that the elixir was prepared so quickly. No, it should be said that it was copied.
However, when the white mist dissipated, three bloody elixirs in the gourd appeared in Lin Mu's field of vision extremely eye-catching.
"With just a few breaths, the elixir was successfully copied, and a pair of medicinal materials actually produced two elixirs."
With shock, Lin Mu poured three pills into his palm.
One of the pills had a pill pattern, and Lin Mu could tell at a glance that it was the one he had refined himself.
What shocked Lin Mu was that the other two replica pills also had pill patterns, and there were two of them.
In Wu Qingyun's memory, there is also information about Danwen.
The number of elixir lines is usually one to nine. The greater the number, the better the quality of the elixir.
In the past, Lin Mu might not have taken the elixir pattern seriously, because in Wu Qingyun's memory, it was very easy to refine the elixir pattern.
But Mr. Xu's reaction made him know that he should never use the vision of an alchemy master to measure things.
Perhaps the elixir pattern is indeed nothing to the master Wu Qingyun, but in the eyes of ordinary people, it is obviously an extremely precious thing.
"One pill with a pill pattern is worth five hundred gold coins. Aren't those two pills more expensive?"
Lin Mu secretly clicked his tongue.
But he was just thinking about it, and it was impossible to actually sell it. First, it is easy to be exposed and very dangerous, and second, he is not short of money now.
"Strength, the top priority is to improve it. I worry so much. In the final analysis, I am not strong enough. I am afraid that I will not have the strength to keep it after the secret is exposed."
Lin Mu's eyes quickly became firmer, "Continue to refine the elixir, and then go practice."
His idea was to copy dozens of elixirs at a time, so that he would not have to worry about lack of elixirs in the future.
But half a quarter of an hour later, he knew that he was too naive.
When ten pills were copied, his spiritual power became weak and his head ached.
"There is no such thing as a free lunch."
Lin Mu smiled bitterly, "It turns out that the Immortal Gourd's copying of the elixir requires my spiritual power, which will also be overdrawn."
"I can only rest and sleep tonight, and practice again tomorrow."
the next day.
Lin Mu got up early in the morning and started practicing "Vajra Subduing the Tiger Fist" again.
Before practicing, he took a "health pill".
boom! boom! boom!
In the yard, the sound of Lin Mu's boxing practice continued to echo.
With every punch, his muscles and bones were put under tremendous pressure, which was why he failed before.
But this time, he took the "Health Pill", and the medicine's power continued to spread out, penetrate into his body, and quickly repair the damage to muscles and bones.
Three days later, Lin Mu had taken nine "health pills."
"It's still a little bit worse."
Lin Mu clenched his fists. Since yesterday, he felt that he was almost at the first level of the Vajra Fuhu Fist.
But to this day, I am still stuck in that state, unable to break through, as if there is always a thin layer of paper between me.
"Lin Mu, are you here?" At this moment, Lin Yun's voice came from outside the door.
Lin Mu raised his head and said nothing.
This Lin Yun isn't going to ask me to teach him some knife-throwing skills again, is he?
"Don't worry. After I went back that day, I thought about it carefully. The key to things like flying knives is to rely on your own perception. I won't bother you anymore."
Hearing no response, Lin Yun seemed to have thought of something and quickly explained.
Lin Mu breathed a sigh of relief, then stepped forward and opened the door: "What's the matter?"
"I knew you were here." Lin Yun smiled proudly, "The martial arts training hall is open today, don't you plan to go practice?"
"Martial arts training hall?" Lin Mu's heart moved slightly.
The martial arts training hall is an important place of the Lin family. It contains martial arts puppets and other various martial arts training props. It is only open twice a month and is usually closed.
"My 'Vajra Subduing the Tiger Fist' happens to be stuck in a bottleneck. Maybe with the help of the pressure of the martial arts puppet, I can make a breakthrough."
As soon as he thought this, Lin Mu immediately said, "Let's go."
