Chapter 98 Alchemy(1/2)
"Fifteen taels of silver together." The pharmacy manager put away his abacus.
Hearing his words, Chu Zheng felt his heart bleeding.
After he came out of the tailor shop, he came to the drugstore to prepare alchemy to make money.
But he never thought that the medicine here would be so expensive. Just buying twenty pairs of Dali Pills and Zengyuan Pills each cost fifteen taels of silver.
You know, these fifteen taels of silver are already enough to cover the expenses of an ordinary family of four for a year or two.
"It's hard to make money." Chu Zheng sighed as he thought about all the things he did while searching for corpses.
Although he could use taboo coins to buy silver on the exchange, Chu Zheng didn't want to do that if it wasn't necessary.
Silver is easy to get, but taboo coins are not so easy to get.
And in addition, the source of a large amount of silver is difficult to explain.
You must know that nowadays, the minimum price for taboo coins is ten.
If he sells ten of them, it will be eight thousand taels.
It would also be troublesome if someone discovered it and took a closer look.
"Here you go." Chu Zheng nodded, took out fifteen taels of silver from his arms, and handed it to the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper took the money, checked it for himself, weighed it on a scale, and then nodded and said, "That's right."
After saying that, he turned around and asked his apprentice to prepare the medicine.
At this time, Chu Zheng was bored and turned over the Forbidden Exchange.
This has now become a pastime for him.
It’s almost like visiting an online mall in my previous life.
Moreover, Chu Zheng did gain some knowledge here.
A lot of strange and weird things appear here.
There are wild treasures, as well as all kinds of weird materials, information, etc.
In addition, Chu Zheng even saw someone committing murder with a clear price tag.
But perhaps because many people still have reason, the exercises on the shelves today are only second-rate at best, and the items are also only second-rate.
"No one will put the Zhenpai Kung Fu on the shelves, right?" This thought came to Chu Zheng's mind.
This taboo exchange is still a real name after all.
If any disciple dares to use the sect's skills, the sect may come to visit him immediately.
"Eh..." At this moment, Chu Zheng let out a sigh in his heart. He had really discovered a first-rate technique.
Broken Moon Technique: A first-class skill, a yin skill, created by Zhou Xingyu, the master of Zhanyue Zhaizhai two hundred years ago. The skill directly leads to the realm of the master. When you reach the upper third level, you may understand the artistic conception of Broken Moon. Price: 1000
Taboo Coin. Listed by: Jiang Huizhen.
Seeing this skill, Chu Zheng fell into deep thought.
He thought of the Moon Lord who died some time ago. Could it be that after the Moon Lord died, some people felt that Zhan Yuezhai was no longer good?
But even though Yue Master is dead, Zhan Yuezhai is still a top sect.
This kind of veteran force has a very strong foundation. Even if the Moon Master dies, he will still belong to other masters.
Today's Zangetsusai is the most dangerous time. Anyone who messes with him may suffer Zangetsusai's crazy revenge.
Chu Zheng thought for a while and shook his head slightly in his heart.
Although the technique he is practicing now is only the second-rate Feihua Jing, the advantage of Feihua Jing in terms of speed is of great help to him.
Stronger than some first-rate techniques.
Therefore, he is not prepared to change to other exercises if it is not necessary.
Moreover, if we go to do this Broken Moon Art at this time, if Zhan Yuezhai finds out about it, we might be in big trouble.
Of course, in addition to this, Chu Zheng also felt that this technique was too expensive and not worth buying.
Shaking his head in his heart, Chu Zheng searched again.
He planned to buy a good alchemy furnace before making alchemy.
Now that he has the conditions, he naturally doesn't want to be like the old man in the Wolf's Shoulder dungeon, using earthen pots to make elixirs.
Later, Chu Zheng saw several good pill furnaces at the Forbidden Exchange.
Most of these alchemy furnaces have already reached a higher level.
The best alchemy furnace is called Jiu Chi furnace, which is a third-grade alchemy furnace and can refine third-grade elixirs.
The price is one thousand taboo coins.
Chu Zheng took a look and gave up this option.
The thing is a good thing, but he has no use for it.
If he were forced to use this kind of alchemy furnace to make elixirs, he might be able to be sucked dry.
Then, he checked on the Forbidden Exchange and finally stopped at an alchemy furnace.
This alchemy furnace is not very good. It is only of eighth grade. Among many alchemy furnaces with mainly fifth and sixth grades, its level is very low.
However, the price of this alchemy furnace is similar to that of some fifth-grade alchemy furnaces.
The main reason is that this alchemy furnace has a special ability, which can generate strange fire by itself.
When this alchemy furnace was being refined, a powerful person placed a fire seed that would make eternal fire into it.
The so-called longevity fire is the sacred fire of a sect called the longevity religion, which has some effects on treating diseases.
The Changsheng Sect once used this effect to gather countless civilian believers in Daliang. In more than 20 years, it has trained many masters, and its momentum has almost surpassed some top powers.
And this also attracted the attention of the court.
Li Qingping, the commander of the Jade Man, personally went to the south of the Yangtze River and killed all the leaders and leaders of the Immortality Sect in just one month.
The huge Immortality Sect fell into pieces.
The eternal fire was also dispersed at that time and turned into many kinds of fire scattered everywhere.
This news was also what Chu Zheng saw recently while reading some miscellaneous articles on the world.
This incident was so big that it was recorded in many books.
However, Chu Zheng didn't expect that he would actually see the day when the eternal fire would be born.
"Guest, your medicine is packed." At this moment, the shopkeeper on the side said.
Chu Zheng came back to his senses at this time and responded: "Oh, okay."
After saying that, he took the packages, large and small, and walked towards his home.
When they arrived at home, Yu Rong was still busy with her work, leaving only two little ones playing in the courtyard.
Because it was approaching the end of the New Year, door couplets and rice cereal were placed on the table in the courtyard.
"Uncle Chu, you're back." When they saw Chu Zheng coming back, the two little ones immediately came forward to greet him. They looked at Chu Zheng expectantly and said, "Do you want to tell a story today?"
Chu Zheng was speechless and said helplessly: "I have some things to do recently and don't have time to tell stories."
After hearing his words, the two children had obviously disappointed looks on their faces.
Seeing this, Chu Zheng smiled and said, "But I brought you something to eat."
After saying that, he took out two bunches of candied haws from the greased paper and handed them to the two of them.
Seeing the candied haws, the two little eyes lit up immediately.
"Thank you, Uncle Chu." Ma Niuer called out sweetly and took the candied haws.
Ma Xiang on the side also shouted and took the candied haws.
Seeing this, Chu Zheng smiled and returned to his room.
After putting down the medicine, he spent 50 taboo coins to buy the eighth-grade alchemy furnace.
Following the purchase, a small one-inch-tall stove appeared in the palm of his hand.
This is a very simple-looking alchemy furnace. There is still some dust on it, and it seems that it has not been used for a long time.
Chu Zheng held the small alchemy furnace with his hand, but felt a slight burning sensation.
At the same time, the wounds on his body were slightly warm, but they were not as painful as before.
Then, Chu Zheng looked at a position on the edge of the alchemy furnace.
Here, there is a piece of white jade inlaid on it.
This is a rare treasure similar to the Fire Heart Jade, which has the function of transmitting spiritual energy. This is also the core of the alchemy furnace, where the alchemist uses true energy to control the fire.
However, in ordinary alchemy furnaces, true energy is collected into them to suppress the temperature outside the furnace.
But this pill furnace controls the burning of the eternal fire.
