fifth form

There is a word difference between magic weapon and magic weapon, and the status of the two is completely different.

Utensils are utensils, and treasures are treasures.

Compared with the latter, the former is more like a tool than a treasure to be used against the enemy.

Most of the magic tools have their own magical functions, but few magic tools will be used to fight.

Zhang Xuezhou had an extra practical magic weapon, and he didn't even think about using it to hit people. A magic weapon like a balance obviously couldn't be used to deal with the enemy.

The biggest function of this scale instrument is to measure the weight.

For an alchemist who is difficult to grasp the weight of medicinal materials by hand, this is an artifact of proportioning.

"Your alchemy method is really rare!"

Dong Zhongshu has seen many people making alchemy. Most alchemists consider the age and effect of the medicine. No alchemist has ever been so concerned about the weight.

Everyone stretched out their hands to grasp, and after a rough estimate in mind, they completed the ratio of medicinal materials.

But Zhang Xuezhou is different.

Watching Zhang Xuezhou carefully grind the medicinal materials into powder, measure out the amount of the medicinal powder, and then store each one separately, Dong Zhongshu only felt that Zhang Xuezhou's steps were too cumbersome.

When he was idle in the Sheriff's Mansion, he couldn't help joking a few words.

"I said that I only know a little bit of alchemy, and I can't be as casual as an alchemy master." Zhang Xuezhou said helplessly: "The bigu powder that Wang Ermazi gave me is only three parts, and the remaining seven parts will have to wait for a while. , I can't afford to waste these herbs."

"in this way?"

Dong Zhongshu looked at it for a while, and then thought about this guy's character.

In the end, he felt that it was better for him to go to bed earlier, lest Zhang Xuezhou fail to refine Bigu San and blame him for the reason.

In case the refinement fails, maybe an interrupted sentence, maybe a gust of wind when walking, or maybe his attention makes Zhang Xuezhou physically and mentally tense.

In short, as long as the refining of Bigu Powder fails, Dong Zhongshu feels that Zhang Xuezhou will definitely blame him.

He pondered for a moment, then went back to his room lightly, leaving only Zhang Xuezhou refining medicine in the kitchen of the Sheriff's Mansion.

"This weighing tool is really convenient. With the accurate ratio, as long as I cook it slowly on a low fire to form a ball, this bigu powder will be ready!"

The most primitive method of alchemy is rubbing with hands, and then gradually transitioned to various utensils, and finally to magic weapons such as alchemy furnaces.

It's not outrageous for Zhang Xuezhou to cook the elixir in a copper and iron kettle in the kitchen. He has also used a pressure cooker to perform similar operations in reality.

At this time, the ratio is very accurate, and Zhang Xuezhou feels that he will succeed in refining.

After all, he was only refining Bigu Powder, and he was not looking for high-level Bigu Pill.

"Perfect!"

From grinding to brewing, until the watchman in Shu County City beat the gong to beat the watch, Zhang Xuezhou looked at the yellowish ointment in the copper and iron kettle, and he was extremely satisfied in his heart.

With the weighing tool, he finally succeeded in refining the fourth bigu powder.

From the color point of view, this bigu powder is a typical three-day bigu powder, which is the lowest grade.

But this can ensure that people will not be starved to death within three days after taking it, and still have relatively sufficient energy and physical fitness.

One serving is guaranteed for three days, and the interval between taking it is also three days.

Combined with the bigu technique, this may barely allow Zhang Xuezhou to survive seven days.

After the bigu powder cooled down, Zhang Xuezhou rubbed it into a round ball shape suitable for the mouth.

He looked at the pill that was half the size of a fist, and then carefully put Bigu powder into the wooden box that he had prepared.

But the fifth part that continued to cook was not so lucky, and the flame burning on the firewood was not stable.

Even though Zhang Xuezhou was extremely careful, the bigu powder made from the fifth ingredient also turned brown.

He took a sip in suspense, and his mouth was full of bitter taste. After adding a scoop of water to pour the dregs of the medicine into his stomach, Zhang Xuezhou began to simmer the sixth ingredient.

"What about boiling medicine?"

A voice came from behind, Zhang Xuezhou's hands trembled, and then he started stirring slowly again.

It was related to his life for the next seven days, even if the emperor and the emperor knelt behind him and shouted, Zhang Xuezhou felt that he had to wait.

In the copper and iron cauldron, the medicinal powder was constantly tumbling under the action of water, and was continuously turned into a paste with the stirring of the wooden spoon.

The color changes gradually from gray and white, then gradually turns to gray yellow, and then slowly approaches light yellow and slightly yellow.

"You are not serious about making medicine without returning home!"

The voice was slightly dissatisfied, but fell silent again, just standing in the cold wind and waiting.

It wasn't until the paste in the copper-iron kettle turned slightly yellow that Zhang Xuezhou quickly lifted the copper-iron kettle away from the fire source.

He took a wooden spoon and shoveled and rolled continuously to finish the finishing work of Bigu San.

At the same time, Zhang Xuezhou finally had the leisure to glance at the figure at the door.

I haven't seen him for two years, but Kong Ning still looks the same.

For these big monsters, having a lifespan of hundreds of years makes growth extremely slow, which also makes aging extremely slow.

Zhang Xuezhou felt that after his life was over, Kong Ning's appearance might not be much different from now.

"Why are you here, left envoy Fei Yu?"

Zhang Xuezhou carefully looked around before asking questions.

"One of his legs was crippled by lightning, and now he is looking for medicine to heal his injury," Kong Ning said bored.

"I didn't expect Left Envoy Fei Yu to be as miserable as me," Zhang Xuezhou sighed.

"He was struck by lightning, but I have been listening to the corner of the Sheriff's Mansion for the past few days, and you seem to have been drowned after falling into the water?" Kong Ning wondered.

"Do you think I'm the one who will be flooded?" Zhang Xuezhou said angrily.

"Yes!"

"You've made me unable to communicate," Zhang Xuezhou said, "I was also struck by lightning with Feiyu Zuoshi on the way to perform the task, which caused extremely serious sequelae, and my body experienced paralysis from time to time, which led to falling into the river." , that can only be called suffering from illness, not falling into the water and being flooded!"

"And then?" Kong Ning blinked.

"Then can you help me go to the Venerable and ask him to be kind enough to give me some bigu pills, so that I won't starve to death when my body is affected by the thunder and lightning and I can't move?" Zhang Xuezhou said.

"If you can't do something, don't do it!"

"what?"

"This is what His Majesty said, and what he asked me to tell you!"

Kong Ning shrugged, and finished his task with his mouth first, conveying the content of His Majesty's narration.

Kong Ning's nonchalant attitude made Zhang Xuezhou tremble.

He also wanted to get some wool from His Majesty, but he didn't do anything after two years. It seemed that His Majesty was really dissatisfied with him.

"Why can't I do it? I'm doing well. I recently got close to a big man and found news about His Majesty Jingdi from him," Zhang Xuezhou said.

"Oh!"

"You pass the news back to Your Majesty, I am very reliable in handling things for him, and I got the inside information in just a few days!"

Zhang Xuezhou thought about it, and felt that it was really inappropriate to only invest but not produce.

If he wants to get help from His Majesty, at least he needs to prove his worth.

Coincidentally, Dong Zhongshu gave relevant news to Emperor Jing.

This is also the information that His Majesty is most concerned about at present.

As His Majesty guessed, Emperor Jing was indeed insane.
