Rebuilding the Xiuxian family

Chapter 8 Alchemy



Ginseng stewed chicken, crystal roasted pork, wine shrimp, five treasure soup... twenty-seven recipes unfolded in front of the two people in turn, and the prices ranged from one hundred to five hundred spirit stones.

‘Arui, which cookbooks do you think we should buy? ’ Li Shiren secretly transmitted the message.

'Ginseng stewed chicken, crystal roasted pork, wine shrimp, five treasure soup, Sanxuan fish balls...' Li Zhirui reported more than a dozen recipes in a row, which he carefully selected based on the eight kinds of spiritual animals that his family currently breeds. of.

Li Shiren nodded secretly in his mind. This was pretty much what he was thinking. He raised his head and asked, "Is there a first-order spiritual wine recipe?"

The monk's smile became even stronger and he said repeatedly: "Yes, yes, please wait a moment, senior."

"Wait a minute, please help me take some samples. I want to see the recipe for water-based elixir refining." Li Zhirui said quickly when he saw this.

"Okay!" After saying that, the man walked out of the room.

Li Shiren frowned slightly and said disapprovingly: "I have no objection to your choice of alchemy, but why did you choose the most difficult water method to make alchemy?"

"Uncle Ren, have you forgotten that I don't have fire spiritual roots?" Although not having fire spiritual roots does not mean that it is impossible to make elixirs, but Li Zhirui has the dual spiritual roots of water and wood!

One suppresses fire and the other fears fire, which means that Li Zhirui cannot control the flame well. However, alchemy has very high requirements for flames, and this path is impossible for him.

"Then why don't you consider other skills? Your talent in beast control is very high." Li Shiren's brows still did not loosen. It was obvious that he did not approve of Li Zhirui's decision.

Refining alchemy is not a simple matter in the first place, but refining alchemy using water method is even more difficult and relatively unsophisticated. High-level elixir recipes are very rare.

If Li Zhirui takes this path, after breaking through to a higher realm, he will have to modify the elixir recipe himself, which is a waste of time and energy!

Li Zhirui was silent now. It was impossible for him to tell the second person about his personal space, even if that person had a very good relationship with him, that wouldn't work!

Li Shiren had a headache. His nephew was obviously a thoughtful person, but he seemed to be extremely stubborn on certain things.

"Two distinguished guests, here are the wine and elixir recipes." Fortunately, at this moment, the monk came back and broke up the weird atmosphere between the uncle and nephew.

Li Zhirui couldn't wait to check the jade slips to see if he could find the elixir he wanted.

Seeing how eager he was, Li Shiren sighed silently in his heart.

The Huangya Pill and Jade Spirit Pill that increase mana, the Nourishing Pill that nourishes the soul, the Blood Replenishing Pill that restores Qi and blood... There are thirty-six kinds of first-level water magic pills. Li Zhirui's eyes lit up when he saw them, and he wished he could use them. Take them all.

It's a pity that Li Zhirui only has more than 300 spirit stones in his body after practicing for many years, and he can only choose two pill recipes at most.

Fortunately, Li Zhirui knew the importance, so he chose two of these elixirs, which were most beneficial to him at the moment, and there were elixirs corresponding to the elixirs in the space, including the jade elixir that could be taken by monks and spirit beasts, and the elixirs in the market. An elixir that is in high demand.

The former can speed up the cultivation speed of himself and Daqing, and the latter can be used to sell and earn spiritual stones.

After paying off the money and goods, Li Zhirui only had dozens of spiritual stones left in his hand.

Li Shiren ignored Li Zhirui's choice and chose Quzhuo Liquor and White Shaojiu from the spiritual wine recipes. Together with the spiritual recipes he had chosen before, Li Shiren paid a total of 5,500 spiritual stones.

But before leaving, the store gave Li Zhirui several packs of first-level spiritual seeds, which in total did not exceed twenty spiritual stones.

After leaving the shop, Li Shiren did not leave in a hurry. Instead, he led Li Zhirui towards a corner of Fang City. Neither of them spoke on the road, just walking in silence.

Soon, a scene lined with street stalls on both sides of the road came into view.

"Don't you want to learn the water method to make elixirs? The elixirs and spiritual waters here are cheaper than those in the shops, but it's up to you to identify whether they are real or fake." Li Shiren said lightly.

Li Zhirui's face lit up and he said, "Thank you, Uncle Ren!"

"The family still has a few alchemy furnaces, so don't buy them." After saying that, he reached out and handed over a storage bag and said: "Here are a hundred spirit stones. Remember to return them to me as soon as possible."

Li Zhirui thanked him again, and then walked happily towards a stall with a large number of elixirs.

"Jade Root Grass, Hidden Spirit Fruit..." A total of five kinds of elixirs are needed to refine the Jade Spirit Pill. The store sells one piece for twelve spirit stones, but here only eleven are needed.

Li Zhirui spent one hundred and ten spiritual stones to buy ten herbs, and another twenty spiritual stones to buy a gourd of spiritual water.

In fact, such a small amount of materials is not enough for practice. Li Zhirui bought them mainly to cover the elixir in the space. After all, he could never master alchemy just by looking at the recipe, right?

At the same time, Li Zhirui also noticed that there were several eyes that had been following him since he bought the elixir. But when he returned to Li Shiren, these eyes instantly went away.

Li Zhirui had no expression on his face, but he remembered the matter in his mind and warned himself that if he came alone next time, he would never be so ostentatious again.

"Are you ready?" Li Shiren asked. If not, he can still visit the market now.

Seeing Li Zhirui nodding, Li Shiren took him out of Fangshi.

After returning to Darong Island, the two handed the recipes and wine recipes to the clan leader, "Does Fangshi and his party have any ideas?"

"There are many monks coming and going in the market, and it is very lively. Although there are several restaurants in the market, I found that they mainly provide accommodation for monks, so there is a big market for selling spiritual food, and the family breeds spiritual animals. This is our Advantages." Li Zhirui talked eloquently, telling everything he observed and thought.

Li Shiqing did not express an opinion, but said: "Well, I understand, you have had a hard day running around, go back and rest first."

Li Zhirui saluted the two elders before turning and leaving.

"Do you agree with Zhirui's words?" Li Shiqing asked.

Li Shiren nodded, "Zhi Rui observes very carefully, and what he says is correct."

Li Shiqing knew what he was doing, so he changed the topic and asked, "You also know the current situation of the family. The resources for cultivating spiritual chefs are limited, so we can only train them intensively. Which clan members do you think are more suitable?"

Li Shiren thought about it seriously, named a few names, and then explained: "The requirements of a spiritual chef are no lower than those of an alchemist, so the most important thing is spiritual awareness and control of the fire."

As for the tribesmen Li Shiren mentioned, either they have fire spirit roots, or they are in the late stage of Qi training and have relatively strong spiritual consciousness, there is always one condition that they meet.

"Well, just them." Li Shiqing thought about it and felt that these people were quite suitable. As for the two spiritual wine recipes, it would be easy to deal with them because the Li family has a winemaker.

Li Zhizhun, the eldest brother of the Zigzag generation, his contracted spirit beast is a second-level wine monkey. In order to meet the needs of his spirit beast, he tried it with the family's only wine recipe, and in the end he succeeded!

The main reason why the family did not train Li Zhizhun to continue his career as a winemaker was because the price paid by Yushou Sect for purchasing spiritual wine was too low and there was almost no profit, so the family gave up on this idea.

Friends are welcome to catch bugs and provide comments. I will correct the former and try to modify the latter! Thank you for your support!
