Chapter 78
Seven days later.

Yu Lie stayed in the house he rented. Inside the stone house stood a bronze tripod as tall as others. He was covered in black, and the blazing charcoal fire was constantly licking the body of the tripod.

With his upper body bare, Yu Lie walked around the bronze tripod with a serious face, constantly checking the heat of the tripod.

He is concocting alchemy, but the elixir he is concocting is neither Qiangxue Pill nor Jiangbeast Pill, but a special elixir formula that Yu Lie took back from a miscellaneous shop after meeting Lao Yutou that day. .

On the table far away from the copper tripod, a golden-red alchemy book was being opened, and the words "Lead, Mercury, Flying Fire and Supreme Treasure Collection" were mentioned on each page!

Among the opened pages, the words lead, mercury, saltpeter, sulfur, fine charcoal, sugar, etc. appeared repeatedly, and there were also strangely shaped utensils branded on the pages.

This book is the pill book that Yu Lie fell in love with when he saw it in a miscellaneous shop. It is a pill recipe for making various gunpowder!

Gunpowder is something familiar to alchemy Taoists, and it is an old skill.

Especially the lowest grade of black powder, its formula has already been simplified by the Taoists to the point where it can no longer be simplified.

When Yu Lie first started learning alchemy, he also thought about starting from refining gunpowder, but gunpowder was classified as the school of Jinshi alchemy, and it was very dangerous. Except for the most basic kinds of alchemy, other Even more powerful formulas are not accessible to Taoist boys at will.

What Yu Lie didn't expect was that he saw the book "Lead, Mercury, Flying Fire and Treasure Collection" in the miscellaneous shop.

This book is very famous for alchemists!

It contains alchemist Qingxuzi's "Taishang Shengzu Jindan Secret", in which the "Volume Fire Alum Method" records the formula of early gunpowder, which is the earliest written record about gunpowder in the world of mountains and seas.

The book discloses in detail the preparation methods of various gunpowder, and also gives the most suitable firearm manufacturing drawings for the corresponding gunpowder, which has not been changed for thousands of years.

Even a mortal who has obtained this book, as long as he is not afraid of death, can read characters, and has enough materials, may be able to make gunpowder and firearms that can blow up a Taoist boy with copper tendons and iron bones to death, and seriously injure an eighth-rank Taoist.

It is precisely because of this that after causing many tragedies, although "Lead, Mercury, Flying Fire and Supreme Treasure Collection" is a classic work of Dan Dao, the content of the entire book is not qualified to be accessed by mortals and Taoists. Only those who have the eighth grade of Taoism are eligible to buy and read.

Fortunately, the rules are the rules, and the reality is the reality. After all, "Lead, Mercury, Flying Fire and Supreme Treasure Collection" was a classic work that was popular all over the world at that time. The Dao Court only restricted this book in regular bookstores and government-run shops, and did not reach the goal of hiding it. The book is about to be killed.

Its specific content is still circulated in the hands of some Taoist boys and mortals.

The book in Yu Lie's hand was taken from a Taoist boy by the two old Yutou.And Old Yutou and the others are not selling it as a prescription, but buying it as an antique.

Because this "Lead and Mercury Flying Fire Supreme Treasure Collection" is an engraved version of Hei Di's early years, although there are no differences, it is not a cherished version.

But it is also an ancient book about 3000 years old. It can be sold for tens of thousands of dollars. If you meet someone you like, it is possible to sell it for 10,000 dollars or [-]+ dollars.

After Yu Lie fell in love with this book, Lao Yu thought about it for a while, and thought that Yu Lie was from the alchemy room, and most likely he wanted to refine gunpowder to protect himself.

The other party did not show any reluctance, and generously asked Yu Lie to take the ancient book home directly, and remember to return it when the time comes.

Old Yutou just reminded Yu Lie: "Gunpowder is dangerous, black powder is fine, but for those who refine other gunpowder according to this recipe in private, three out of ten will be blown to pieces, and two more will be broken." You will be killed on the spot. Brother Yu, although you have already built a strong and strong body, you are not afraid of being bombed, but you have to take it easy!"

After being reminded, Old Yutou added: "Besides, the most important thing about refining gunpowder is not the formula and craftsmanship, but the material. Basically, the purer the material, the greater the power it will produce, but now the official The control is very strict, and you can't buy it at all. Although there are some for sale in the black street, but the price is really deceiving, it's better to prepare more talisman paper..."

The other party said a lot of nagging, meaning to ask Yu Lie not to spend too much time on "The Integration of Lead, Mercury, Fire and Fire", and wait until he has free time to think about it slowly, so as not to delay other preparations .

Yu Lie agreed at the time, saying that he was just trying to think about it first, and promised to return the book after half a month, and there would be no delay.

Seeing that Yu Lie was sensible, Old Yutou said nothing more.

The other party didn't seem to want to dampen Yu Lie's enthusiasm for alchemy too much, and decided to sell the raw materials such as saltpeter and refined charcoal in the miscellaneous shop directly at cost price, so that Yu Lie could take as much as he needed.

If it is not enough, when the middle-aged Fangzheng comes back, let him lead Yu Lie to go directly to the Qiyuan to buy. Anyway, Qiyuan has been blasting mines all year round, and the consumption of such things is really large. The way of Qiyuan The children also worry about the lack of trustworthy buyers who give them money.

When Yu Lie learned this, his face showed no fluctuations, but he was happy in his heart.

The step of purifying raw materials would cost a lot of money for other Taoists, and if it was prepared privately, the cost might exceed the price of finished products in the world.

But Yu Lie has a bronze wine cup in his hand, he only needs to think a little bit, and he can produce materials that are difficult for Taoists to purify!
This "Lead Mercury Flying Fire Supreme Treasure Collection" fell into his hands, it can be said that he has voted for the master, and it will soon be carried forward!
And this day.

Yu Lie retreated in the stone house, trying to refine the orange gunpowder of "Tribulus thorn fireball" in "Lead and Mercury Flying Fire to Treasure Collection".

This flavored gunpowder is contained in the terrestris sphere, and when it is thrown, it will explode, and dozens of hundreds of spikes will fly out. In a room, it can kill wild boars and bears. , I have to be dumbfounded for about ten breaths.

In the stone chamber, the flames under the copper tripod were raging, and the tripod cover suddenly trembled slightly.

Seeing this movement, Yu Lie's eyelids trembled, and he subconsciously wanted to jump away.

In the past few days he was refining gunpowder, he was bombed three times a day, he had to cover his face and tense his body when the cauldron cover moved.

This is also the reason why he moved back to the small courtyard from the poison mouth.The other people in the poisonous mouth still have to work. If the quiet room is smashed down, or even the medicinal materials in the mouth are burned, the loss will be too great.

It is still cheaper to rent a stone house, and there is a yard, which is also convenient for Yu Lie to run around.

The only ones who suffered were the benefactors of the landlady next door a few days ago.

Yu Lie, because of his inexperienced workmanship, made several noises every day, and occasionally the noise was so loud that the next door thought it was an earthquake. The cowardly benefactor would have weak legs on the spot, and would be so frightened that he would get out naked, and even forgot to pay.

Fortunately, Yu Lie had experience in refining Qiangxue Pills. Although the recipes were different, there were some merits. His progress was rapid, and he didn't make the landlady completely unable to do business, nor did he get kicked out.

"what!"

Yu Lie tensed up, and found that the lid of the copper tripod hadn't lifted into the sky.

He settled down, then walked over, knocked nine places on the tripod body with a special technique, and then lifted the tripod body.

Yu Lie looked inside the copper tripod, and in a burst of smoky smoke of saltpeter and sulfur, he saw a piece of yellow and orange in the body of the tripod.

With joy in his eyes, he stretched out his finger, scraped some powder with his fingernail in the copper tripod, first sniffed and then licked, his face suddenly showed a look of great joy:

"Orange gunpowder, it's done!"

Yu Lie excitedly wanted to pat Ding's body to celebrate, but just as his hand was about to fall on Ding's body, he trembled, stopped, and showed resentment.

Gunpowder, especially those above black powder, don't dare to touch it casually, that's asking for trouble!
Immediately, Yu Lie removed the copper tripod, then took a ox bone knife and a pottery pot, scraped off all the orange gunpowder in the tripod, and filled most of the pottery pot.

After the completion of the work, Yu Lie looked at the clay pot and was overjoyed.

He thought to himself: "Knowing alchemy, it's really amazing! Just this clay pot can make ten or twenty fireballs of thorns."

It is easy to kill pigs and bears, tigers and elephants with a thorn of thorns, and because of restrictions, the price is [-] to [-] renminbi.Most of the jars in the remaining list cost nearly one thousand dollars, but the cost is less than one hundred. When he is skilled in the craft, the cost can be even lower.

And the rest of the ingredients are all purified through the wine glass, and its power is stronger and stronger than the ordinary fireballs of thorns on the market!
After putting away the clay pot, Yu Lie didn't extinguish the charcoal fire, but went to the table again, and flipped through "The Collection of Lead and Mercury Flying Fire Supreme Treasure".

His eyes flickered and his face was excited.

Tribulus thorn fireball is just a second-class firearm on top of firecrackers and fireworks in "Lead and Mercury Flying Fire to Treasure Collection".

Similar to it, but with different uses, there is also the "flying sand white snow fireball", which can be attached to objects and burn violently after being smashed. It can scrape the meat to put out the fire, it is very poisonous!

And there are also "Solo Flying Magic Arrow", "Rainstorm Pear Blossom Arrow", "Miasma Poisonous Smoke Arrow" and so on, which are used with bows and arrows.

As for the higher class, Yu Lie aimed at a firearm called "Shenhuo Flying Crow".

The appearance of this device is like a crow, made of tin iron, and filled with banshed gunpowder inside. Two "fire" cartridges are installed on each side of the tin iron flying crow, and the cartridges are connected to the gunpowder in the crow's body with wires.

Hold this thing, where to hit.

During the martial arts, the Taoist blows a "fire", and the flying crows can shoot three hundred paces away. After landing, it is like a thunderbolt.

On top of the "Shenhuo Flying Crow", there is also a firearm blindly named "Fire Dragon Out of Water", which can fly farther and can be thrown out of the water. It is just easy to break mountains and rocks.

This object is the firearm in "Lead Mercury Flying Fire Supreme Treasure Collection" that can seriously injure an eighth-rank Taoist, or even kill him.Converted to monsters, it is enough to kill spirit monsters of the seventh rank, and it is already comparable to the Qiwu paper man talisman that Yu Lie used back then!

It's a pity that its production is more difficult, more dangerous, and the control of medicinal materials is also stricter, so it is difficult for ordinary people to get it.

But Yu Lie thought about it, gritted his teeth, and secretly said:
"Such a killer weapon! Even if it's difficult to get it, you have to keep two or three in your hand as a precaution!"

He was certain in his heart, and began to think about where to get the raw materials.
