Chapter 12 Pills and Broken Cauldron
Using materials from monsters, making inner armor is more important, Li Gan dare not take it lightly.
The next day, he sent Li Zheng to find Li Kun in person to make inner armor together. He himself began to prepare various herbs to prepare for the pills.
After three days of busy work, he picked an auspicious day and began to prepare for the medicine.
"Dad, how do you make pills? Is it like boiling medicine normally?" Li Yi asked curiously.
He knew how to boil medicine and had boiled it before, but he didn't know much about making pills from spiritual medicine.
"It's almost the same, but there are some differences. You can't boil it in a casserole, you need a medicine cauldron."
As he said that, he walked under the eaves and took out a small blue-black cauldron filled with some rainwater. The small cauldron stood on three legs, with a small mouth and a round belly, about three inches high.
There should have been two cauldron ears, but for some reason, they were lost. There were two gaps on the cauldron ears, and there were dense patterns on the surface, and the surface was rusty.
There were even some traces of knife and axe. It looked like a piece of rags. It was inconspicuous. Even if it was thrown on the ground, no one would be willing to bend down to pick it up.
Looking at his son's puzzled expression, he knew that his idea could make his son, a cultivator, misjudge him. He was still very proud.
In the past year, he felt useless in front of his son in this old world. Now he was a little proud to show off his skills in front of his son.
So he said: "Xiao Yi, don't underestimate this small tripod, but it is definitely a rare treasure. My master used this small tripod to brew elixirs in Yaowang Villa. At that time, Yaowang Villa was burned to ashes by a fire, and everything inside was destroyed.
I found this small tripod in the ruins. This small tripod was not damaged at all. And look at the water here. It fell in about a month ago when it rained. Now the water inside is still very clear, and there is no peculiar smell, and there is no reduction."
After listening to Li Gan's words, Li Yi also felt incredible. He took the small tripod and began to observe it carefully. There was nothing on it except the complex patterns.
Even if he used the spiritual eye technique, he couldn't see anything, and he didn't even see a trace of spiritual energy on it.
"There are more powerful ones, watch out."
As he said that, Li Gan took out a dagger with a cold light from his arms and slashed it hard on the small tripod. The small tripod made a crisp sound, and a gap appeared on the dagger in Li Gan's hand, but there was no damage on the surface of the small tripod.
This scene shocked Li Yi a little. You know, his father is a first-class master in the world. The knife just now also used internal force, but the small tripod was completely intact. At this time, Li Yi had already suspected that this thing might be something used by a cultivator.
"Okay, let's boil the medicine first, and you can study it slowly in the future. After boiling the medicine, this thing will be yours in the future." Li Gan said.
"Give it to me." Li Yi was a little happy.
"Why not give it to you? It's useless for me to have it. I've had it in my hands for more than ten years, but I haven't discovered the secret of this small tripod. You are a cultivator, take it back and take a good look at it, maybe you can find the secret." Li Gan said, he was very satisfied to show off his skills in front of his son.
"Okay, thank you, Dad."
"Okay, we father and son don't have to be polite, now go and deal with the spiritual herbs! Refine the pills to avoid the loss of medicinal power and reduce the efficacy. You can study the small tripod carefully later."
After that, the father and son began to get busy nervously. They set up a fire, put some mountain spring water in the small tripod, and then put the chopped herbs into the small tripod one by one.
When one herb was boiled into juice, put another one. Seeing that the medicinal materials on the table were getting less and less, only the blue spiritual grass was left. At this time, Li Gan did not continue to put herbs.
Instead, he took out a piece of white gauze and began to filter the liquid medicine. When there were no more impurities in the liquid medicine. Continue to boil the medicinal liquid, and finally throw the blue spirit grass in.
After half a day, there was only a layer of medicinal mud left in the small cauldron. When the medicinal mud was about to dry, Li Gan dug out all the medicinal mud, and then rubbed it into small light blue pills with his hands.
Looking at the small pills with lingering fragrance, Li Gan's face showed joy, and then he used his inner strength to dry all the pills and put them into a small porcelain bottle.
Li Gan kept some for himself, took some to Li Yi and said: "Xiao Yi, this pill is called Blue Spirit Pill! Try it and see if it works for you."
"Okay, I'll try it."
Holding the pills, Li Yi returned to his place of practice, then took a Blue Spirit Pill and began to practice "Dead Wood Gong". After practicing the technique, he felt a stream of spiritual power released from the Blue Spirit Pill and flowed into his meridians.
"It actually works." Looking at the increased mana in his body, Li Yi was very surprised. The effect of using the Blue Spirit Pills was very good. Li Yi felt that the effect of using the Spirit Stones was even better.
Except for eating and sleeping, Li Yi now spent all his time on cultivation. The mana in his body was also rising steadily, and he was about to break through to the second level of Qi Refining.
A few days later, Li Zheng returned with Li Kun and some tools. When he saw the giant python skin, he said excitedly, "What a treasure!" For martial artists like them, a piece of armor is often more precious than a magic weapon. Armor can save lives at critical moments.
"It is indeed a good treasure. This python is a demon beast. Its leather armor is very hard. The magic weapons and blades in the world can't damage this python skin at all.
Xiao Yi has tried it before, and even the weapons of immortal cultivators may not be able to break it. With this thing made into inner armor, you can almost walk sideways in the world." Li Gan said with a little excitement.
In order to keep it secret, Li Kun and others did not let other people participate in the production of leather armor and daggers. The three of them did it themselves, and Li Yi hid in the room, swallowing pills to practice.
However, he still came out several times during this period, because Li Kun and his team had no way to split the giant python skin, so Li Yi used his silver flying sword to split the giant python skin bit by bit, and then cut it into the size that could make leather armor, and drilled some small holes.
Li Kun and his team used black gold silk to sew the python skin into inner armor. The processed python skin has a dark surface, fine scales, toughness and softness, and is very comfortable to wear.
As for the python's fangs, Li Gan installed the handle on it and made it into a pair of daggers, and then made a leather sheath with python skin and wrapped it up.
The giant python skin made five sets of inner armor, almost enough for each of them, and some scraps were made into leather boots, leg guards, arm guards and other small items.
While Li Kun and his team were making inner armor and daggers, Li Yi's cultivation also broke through to the second level of Qi Refining.
