Those Who Engage In Chemistry Go To Cultivate Immortality

Chapter 161: The Real Elixir

Leng Rui dissolved the Linglong sand with acid and turned it into a paste.

Leng Rui tried it again with the calcination method, heating it at high temperature, and then putting it in rootless water to turn it into powder.

Compared with the two, the obvious acid dissolution method preserved much more mysterious factors, and the calcination method lost at least half of it, leaving only a weak point.

As for the mysterious factor, Leng Rui has never been able to figure out what it is?

The first time he saw the word "mysterious factor" was from a classmate's thesis of the feed factory.

That is an unsolved mystery of the feed factory. The growth rate of chickens and pigs is significantly accelerated when the feed added with Peruvian fishmeal is used.

However, if other bone meal is used, whether domestic or imported, the growth rate of the animal is much slower.

Leng Rui sat in the room without moving, the incense burner next to him emitted a wisp of smoke, and the whole room was filled with a faint fragrance.

This fragrance has the effect of calming the mind and calming the mind, which can quickly calm people's minds.

Leng Rui is thinking about how to extract the mysterious factor to the greatest extent.

Thinking of the mysterious factor, Leng Rui felt a little heartbroken.

There are mysterious factors on the earth. In fact, not only Peruvian fishmeal, many things contain mysterious factors.

Leng Rui clearly remembers that when he was seven or eight years old, someone gave his father a small piece of wild ginseng wine, which was dry and uglier than dried radish, like a piece of dry firewood.

My father was also a little curious, and picked up a few thin ginseng whiskers, chewed them, and ate them.

As a result, the next day, my father started to suffer from nosebleeds, which startled the whole family.

Changbai Mountain in the northeast must have a mysterious factor, which can explain why the longer the age, the better the effect of ginseng.

Like Peruvian fishmeal, due to the extremely small amount of mysterious factors in the earth, it must accumulate over time to reach an effective concentration.

The technology tree of the earth is somewhat crooked. Everyone blindly believes in Western science, and dismisses unexplainable things as unscientific and superstitious.

Leng Rui was a little puzzled back then, since according to expert theory, ginseng is ginsenoside that works, in fact, this kind of conclusion is not rigorous and incomplete.

When Leng Rui was in college, a classmate who lived in Changbai Mountain brought back a bag of ginseng when the school started.

A few students in the dormitory went to the teacher's dormitory to steal a chicken and came back. They put three ginseng in it and stewed it for two hours. They ate up all the meat and soup.

However, apart from the smell of raw potatoes, nothing happened.

Leng Rui worried for a while at night, not to mention blood in his nose, not even snot.

Looking back now, the magic of ginseng is not ginsenosides, but the mysterious factor in it.

"Earth can be cultivated, why there is no Spiritual Qi, that is nonsense! What is Spiritual Qi? It is nothing more than the energy between heaven and earth, which is never lacking. What is missing is the mysterious factor!" Leng Rui shook his head and sighed.

It would be great if the mysterious factor could be extracted!

"It would be great if there were equipment on Earth!" Leng Rui remembered a set of sophisticated extraction equipment used on Earth.

The name of the equipment is "Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Extraction". The function is powerful, just adjust the temperature and pressure, and you can extract whatever ingredients you want, which is very convenient.

"Supercritical, supercritical,..." These three words kept recurring in Leng Rui's mind.

The so-called supercritical extraction of carbon dioxide is actually to make carbon dioxide in a supercritical state at a specific temperature and pressure, which is neither a gas nor a liquid. At the same time, it has high permeability of gas and high solubility of liquid, which is especially suitable for extracting the essence of natural substances. Moreover, precise extraction can be achieved, that is, only one component can be extracted by adjusting the temperature and pressure.

Before Leng Rui left the earth, all major wineries installed this device to extract aroma substances from the tail of the wine and add them to the wine, which significantly improved the quality of the wine.

After the Chinese medicine factory uses this technology, the production of Chinese medicine does not need to go through cumbersome processes such as crushing, distilling, boiling, and filtering. It only needs to put the medicinal materials into the equipment, and extract whatever ingredients you want. Simple, fast, efficient and harmless.

After contacting and feeling the effect of the mysterious factor, what Leng Rui wants to do most is to extract the mysterious factor.

Thinking about it, Leng Rui realized that he had entered into a misunderstanding. The technology tree of the earth was crooked. He grew up under this crooked neck tree since he was a child, so he naturally followed the crooked thinking.

"I can only see the trees, but not the forest. If you have a headache, treat your head, and if your feet hurt, treat your feet." A string of words popped up in his mind.

Modern people don't understand why traditional Chinese medicine is processed. They think that it is enough to simply extract the active ingredients, but the result is that the prepared medicine is useless, and then everyone scolds Chinese medicine for its uselessness.

A flash of inspiration flashed in Leng Rui's head, and he completely understood.

Many of the prescriptions and processing techniques of traditional Chinese medicine should have been handed down by people who practiced immortality in ancient times.

Traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions are not simply boiled together with various medicinal materials.

The medicinal materials should pay attention to the place of origin, year and collection time.

why is that? It is the people who cultivated immortals in ancient times knew that these medicinal materials contain mysterious factors, and the content is different in different places of origin and years.

There is also a lot of attention to the processing of medicinal materials, some must be dried, some must be fresh, some must be candied and salted, and so on.

The processing techniques of boiling, soaking in wine and foaming are also different.

Only after being processed by many processing techniques can the prepared Chinese medicine be effective, and the medicinal ingredients and mysterious factors in it can play a role.

After the technology tree is crooked, the Chinese medicinal materials are all grown in the vegetable field, and then they are simply cooked according to the recipe.

"Oh! I don't know why, but I hurt others and myself!" Leng Rui sighed for a long time.

He feels sad for the people on earth, a group of people who grow under the crooked neck tree will never understand the true meaning of traditional Chinese medicine.

Sighing for a long time, Leng Rui collected his mind, meditated for a while, and put himself in the best state.

He wants to open the furnace for pill refining, to refine a real elixir.

Instead of the two hundred and five elixir that Yunhuo Daoist refined in Tongshantang back then.
