Chapter 8: Wang Shixiong Hao Yun

"Firewood is a great study!"

So, Wang Shixiong Hao began to tell He Pingsheng the truth about firewood.

The firewood used for alchemy is divided into two types.

One is hard firewood!

One is soft firewood!

Soft material is for starting a fire. Generally, there are no special requirements, just use 【Dry Thatch】.

And there are many classifications of hard firewood.

He divides them into Elm wood, Chestnut wood, Jujube wood, Paulownia wood... etc., according to the type of wood.

And each different wood has different specifications, such as large firewood, medium firewood, small firewood.

Refining different elixirs requires different types of firewood!

And when refining the same furnace of elixirs, different periods require controlling the size of the fire. The control of the size of the fire is combined with specifications like large firewood, medium firewood, and small firewood.

"Of course!" Wang Shixiong Hao said: "You don't need to understand how to control it specifically. Burning the fire is my business, your business is chopping and cutting wood!"

"Go and cut wood on the mountain according to my requirements, then dry the firewood and chop it into the size I need!"

"The specific specifications are over there, go and see for yourself!"

He Pingsheng walked out of the hall and went around to the back.

At the back, there is a shed specially for storing firewood.

He took a look, there was a lot of firewood inside, various specifications and types were classified and neatly stacked.

"No one has come to refine alchemy during this time!" Wang Shixiong Hao didn't know when he followed: "You can go to the mountain to cut wood first and familiarize yourself with the work!"

He Pingsheng was curious: "How does Wang Shixiong know that no one has come to refine alchemy recently?"

Wang Shixiong Hao smiled and said: "This is very simple. If the immortals of Xiuzhu Peak refine alchemy, they will notify us a few days in advance to prepare, and also tell me what kind of elixir to refine and when to refine it!"

"Otherwise, if we are not prepared, they can't refine alchemy!"

He Pingsheng was awestruck: "Wang Shixiong is truly amazing, those immortals have to apply to you in advance when they come?"

"Hehehe..." Wang Shixiong Hao laughed and said: "That is... although our status is low, sometimes they also have to beg us, right?"

However, Wang Shixiong Hao's smile was somewhat empty.

After looking around, He Pingsheng took an axe and went up the mountain to start cutting trees.

He also recognized various trees.

This job of cutting wood is no less tiring than carrying water, but there is no fixed task like carrying water, and the consumption of firewood is far less than drinking water.

So overall, it is relatively easy.

At night, after dinner, He Pingsheng locked himself in the small house and took out the remaining 【Jin Gu Dan】, gently placing it in the old pottery basin.

After putting it in, he placed the pottery basin at the head of the bed, staring at it without moving his eyes. He Pingsheng wanted to see how this Ju Bao Pen turned one treasure into two.

But until midnight, the basin didn't move at all.

No way!

He couldn't stay awake, so he had to sleep first.

The first thing when he got up the next morning was to look at the dark pottery basin.

However, what made He Pingsheng dumbfounded was that the elixir in the basin didn't move at all.

Still one!

The quality didn't change either!

Looking left and right at the basin, a trace of disappointment rose in He Pingsheng's heart: Could it be that I judged wrong, this basin is not a Ju Bao Pen at all?

Is this an ordinary basin?

Then how to explain the things before?

Is someone joking with me?

"Why are you absent-minded?"

"He Pingsheng, you have something on your mind!"

Wang Shixiong Hao pushed the bowl on the table after eating and said: "Tell me?"

He Pingsheng quickly said: "No no no..."

"No is best!" Wang Shixiong Hao said: "Wash the bowl for me, and I will tell you a good news!"

He Pingsheng picked up two bowls, went out to wash them clean, and returned to the hall.

Wang Shixiong Hao said: "Five days later, Senior Uncle Elder Yu Xuan from Xiuzhu Peak is coming to refine alchemy... and he is refining Foundation Establishment Elixir!"

He Pingsheng naturally didn't understand what Foundation Establishment Elixir was, but a trace of anxiety arose in his heart.

Because someone said before that this immortal alchemy is the most dangerous.

If alchemy fails, the precious medicinal herbs collected with painstaking efforts and wealth will be gone.

By then, they will be furious, and it is inevitable that they will vent their anger on the pill boy and handyman disciples. Being beaten or crippled is a small matter.

Can it not be worrying?

"Phew..." Wang Shixiong Hao took a deep breath: "Go prepare... Refining Foundation Establishment Elixir requires a lot of Chestnut wood. Prepare well, prepare more!"

"It's best to pray that Senior Uncle Elder Yu Xuan can succeed in refining alchemy!"

He Pingsheng didn't know what Foundation Establishment Elixir was, but he, Hao Yun, knew.

The materials for Foundation Establishment Elixir are so precious. If alchemy really fails... hiss hiss hiss... the consequences are unimaginable!

"Yes... I'll go right away!"

He Pingsheng temporarily forgot about the Ju Bao Pen and picked up the axe to walk up the mountain.

A day of hard work!

But the Chestnut wood is enough.

The next few days are just chopping the firewood into suitable specifications.

Night!

Back in the room!

Saw the black pottery basin again.

He Pingsheng was not reconciled after all, so he fetched half a basin of clear water from outside and placed it at the head of the bed!

He couldn't sleep, paying attention to the situation of this pottery basin all the time.

In the dead of night, the moonlight was like water, projected from the sky!

A ray of moonlight passed through the window lattice of He Pingsheng's bedroom and fell on the bluestone floor, mottled, soft and beautiful.

Just at this time, He Pingsheng suddenly discovered that light particles like particles appeared on the ground illuminated by the moonlight, and then gathered and came towards the black pottery basin.

This...

At this moment, He Pingsheng became excited again.

No problem!

This Ju Bao Pen is indeed no problem.

Moonlight and lunar essence merged into the water.

The water didn't seem to change.

But after He Pingsheng stared at the water for an hour, he discovered that the color of the water seemed to have turned green a little bit.

And it seemed to have increased a bit.

When he woke up the next morning, he looked at the pottery basin with two dark circles and bloodshot eyes, but suddenly discovered that the water in the pottery basin had gathered into a full basin!

Green water.

Green like jade, reflecting the morning sun, presenting an emerald green.

Phew...

Relieved!

It proves that this thing is indeed a Ju Bao Pen!

"Splash..."

He Pingsheng poured this full basin of clear water under the bed at the fastest speed.

No matter what, this thing cannot be kept.

If the thing is gone, it can be condensed.

But if any clues are discovered by others, then it's completely over.

The water poured onto the ground, and a fresh aura immediately appeared in the air.

Smelling it, he felt refreshed.

He Pingsheng thought: I wonder if this thing can be drunk?

But now is not the time for research. Wait until he catches a squirrel later and try it out. ===== CHAPTER 9 =====
