"It's too difficult to become an alchemist!" Bai Xiuwen suddenly said in a low voice.
"You need a secret method. Even if you have a secret method, refining the magic talisman is still a big challenge."
"This is not over yet." Bai Xiuwen stiffened his neck and stared.
"The alchemy furnace has three, six, and five hot and cold seasons."
"But in the secret method of alchemy, I will only tell you a range."
"If you don't have anyone to guide you and you don't know the tricks, you can only make three or five pills out of a hundred ingredients."
"If you continue to practice, you will lose everything you have!" Bai Xiuwen looked as if he could not bear to look back.
Chen Mu's heart also skipped a beat.
The secret method of alchemy he obtained was indeed vague in its requirements regarding the prohibitions on cold and heat.
If you practice blindly, the consequences...
"No one in the pavilion is teaching?"
Chen Mu couldn't help but think of the Sutra-Channel in the Lower House.
Shouldn't this model of private tutoring where students are paid for teaching be unique to the House of Commons?
"Yes, but do you have any Taoist skills?" Bai Xiuwen glanced at Chen Mu.
Chen Mu's heart sank.
It's troublesome.
"Fortunately, there is always a way out." Bai Xiuwen suddenly smiled.
"Brother, do you have a solution?" Chen Mu's eyes lit up.
"Hey! This brings us to Senior Brother Qi Huiqi."
"He is one of the six alchemists in Danbao Pavilion, and is particularly proficient in the Bigu Pill."
"Just a few words of advice in daily life can benefit us a lot." Bai Xiuwei shook his head with a proud look on his face, indicating that he had received advice before.
"Of course, nothing comes easy."
"Fortunately, Senior Brother is kind and doesn't ask for any Taoist merit or money. He only asks us to help absorb the essence of the five grains to assist him in refining the elixir."
"How about it? Isn't it a good deal?"
Chen Mu's heart skipped a beat.
Help absorb the essence of grains and assist in refining elixirs?
Does that mean you won’t give me any money?
This is making us do hard labor for free!
The look in his eyes when he looked at Bai Xiuwen suddenly became playful.

Chapter 313 Try
"Junior brother, don't think we are working in vain." Bai Xiuwen said as if he could see what Chen Mu was thinking.
"In the secular world, whether you study medicine or ironwork, don't you have to work as a laborer for your master for several years?"
"Think about what you'll get once you become an alchemist."
"This little bit of effort is not worth mentioning!" Bai Xiuwen consoled earnestly.
Makes sense!
Chen Mu suddenly realized something and asked hopefully, "I wonder how many alchemists did Senior Brother Qi teach?"
Bai Xiuwen froze for a moment, then returned to normal: "It's not that easy to learn how to make pills."
Chen Mu looked at Bai Xiuwen with a smile without saying anything.
"It seems that Junior Brother has a misunderstanding about Senior Brother Qi." Bai Xiuwen regained his composure and said meaningfully: "After a while, you will know Senior Brother Qi's methods."
What? Persuasion failed, so you want to force me?
Chen Mu narrowed his eyes immediately.
Bai Xiuwen was calm and composed: "Senior Brother Qi and I have an appointment to meet tonight. Do you want to go with me?"
"Once I see Senior Brother Qi's heroic appearance, I'm sure I'll change my mind."
it's a pity.
Chen Mu sighed and dispersed the Five Ghosts Possession Technique that he had prepared.
It seems like I should kill this guy.
We can't let this guy cause trouble endlessly.
Chen Mu's eyes rolled and a hesitant look appeared on his face.
"Brother Qi can really teach people how to make pills?"
Bai Xiuwen was cheered up, this means he has surrendered!
"Of course!"
"As long as you can extract a certain amount of the essence of the five grains, I can sell you the method of refining the Bigu Pill without even using any Taoist skills!"
A certain amount?
No need for Taoist power?
What a fool.
The essence of the five grains can actually be exchanged for Taoist merits.
This Senior Brother Qi is just collecting the money in a different way!
Chen Mu pretended to be eager and asked, "How about 100 kilograms of grain essence per month?"
One hundred pounds?
Are you kidding me?
Bai Xiuwen frowned slightly.
Chen Mu looked embarrassed: "I also know that the number is a bit small."
"But I don't need my senior brother to teach me how to make pills."
"If you can teach me how to absorb the essence of the five grains, I will be very grateful."
What do you mean?
Bai Xiuwen was a little confused.
Chen Mu smiled bitterly: "To tell you the truth, Senior Brother, my identity as an alchemy boy is just a name without substance."
"Master Zhu is generous and allows me to practice slowly."
"But alchemy is something that is really difficult to practice without anyone to teach you."
"Pavilion Master Zhu is so busy, it's not good to disturb him rashly."
"Senior Brother Qi showed up at the right time!" Chen Mu's face was full of excitement.
"You don't know the Five Elements Qi Concentration Technique?" Bai Xiuwen couldn't believe it.
Then how did you become an alchemy boy?
Pavilion Master Zhu knows that you are uneducated and unskillful, yet he still tolerates you.
This……
Bai Xiuwen's face twitched.
Facing Chen Mu's half-smile, my scalp suddenly felt tingling.
Misstep, misstep!
This guy actually has a background!
"excuse me!"
Bai Xiuwen immediately left in disgrace.
Chen Mu stood at the entrance of the cave, watching Bai Xiuwen go away with a smile.
Hey!
Liang Yi’s tiger skin is still very useful.
……
Half a month later, in Chen Mu’s cave residence, inside the alchemy room.
Chen Mu sat on the couch, squinting his eyes slightly.
The Hunyuan Five Qi Alchemy Furnace sat steadily on the low table in front of him.
"open!"
Chen Mu shouted in a low voice.
bass!
A flash of light flashed around the dome.
laugh!
A stream of white smoke gushed out from the gap in the roof.
Chen Mu took a deep breath.
"Smells! It smells so good!"
"It's really a great stove for stewing meat!"
Chen Mu could not wait to open the furnace cover. He reached into the furnace with a bamboo chopstick as long as his forearm and quickly picked out a small square piece of meat as big as a walnut with skin.
