The unlovable Li Qingge didn't help Zhao An in refining the Baohua Spiritual Replenishing Pill at all. Luckily, Zhao An was already familiar with these procedures, if Li Qingge were to come, it would only drag down his speed.
Li Qingge didn't cause any trouble. Zhao An called for her to come over, but Li Qingge didn't act smart to help him do anything. She just handed something over and carefully observed on the side.
"You just casually grabbed it? Isn't a single misstep a thousand miles away, a little more or a little less, would have a huge impact on the medicinal properties of the medicine? " When Li Qingge saw Zhao An dividing the medicinal plants into two parts, he couldn't help but remind Zhao An.
Zhao An pinched a few pieces of rhinoceros' horn and placed them on the small scale beside him. "Five and a half grams, weigh them."
Li Qingge was skeptical. This kind of balance had already been learned on how to use it in junior high school physics class. Li Qingge weighed it and found that it was indeed 5: 5g, no more, no less. Looking at the steady balance, not only was Li Qingge stunned, but what kind of person was this?
He always felt that he had interacted a lot with Zhao An and would no longer be surprised by what he had done. However, from time to time, he would update her impression of him. Although he had seen some old butchers selling pork on TV and he could easily cut a piece in half, his accuracy had reached as high as 0.0 grams!
"A human's potential is very great. If you have a precise and meticulous brain control program, your keen nerves can play a role no less than a high-precision instrument. The bestowment of the heavens was such a skill, to fully tap into the human body's potential … for you to master your body exactly as you would a highly precise instrument to use all parts of your body. " Zhao An tempted Li Qingge. "But the study of the Heavenly Dao's bestowment requires a lot of ingredients. If you really want to learn it well, it won't be an easy matter."
"You've been taking these pills?" Li Qingge was very interested in learning Heavenly Dao Aura, but she wanted to know more about Zhao An.
"Nope." Zhao An shook his head.
"So you making me eat one is actually treating me as a mouse?" Li Qingge shouted.
"A little." Zhao An nodded with a smile.
"I won't eat, dream on!" Li Qingge said angrily. This bastard.
After a busy morning, Zhao An finally placed the medicine cup on the stove and began to suffer.
Li Qingge wiped her sweat as she pointed at the medicine cup and said, "Shouldn't you be using firewood? Then someone will have to fan them with a fan?"
"No need. The times are improving. There are many good things in the ancient methods, but most of them are the restrictions of the times and technology. Having no better way does not mean that using charcoal or firewood is better." Zhao An shook his head. "This prescription is a modified version. The tolerance rate has increased."
At noon, Zhao An cooked two dishes and a soup. Although Li Qingge didn't do anything, she felt as if she had been busy for a long time. Of course, it wasn't because the food was delicious, but because he was hungry.
After eating and resting for a while, the medicine had also simmered down. Zhao An turned off the fire, poured the medicinal juice out of the medicine cup, added honey and peach gum, and rinsed the inner wall of the medicine cup once more. Then, he washed out the remaining medicinal juice and put it into a big bowl with the medicinal juice.
"This small bowl costs 5,000 yuan." Li Qingge sighed with emotion. As she smelled the medicinal fragrance, she actually felt refreshed.
Zhao An stirred the thick medicinal juice. Although it was in a large bowl, it was only a small bowl. As Zhao An stirred it, the medicinal juice became thicker, turning from sticky to a semi-hard and soft solidified substance.
"Try it?" Zhao An took the chopsticks and dipped them in the sauce before passing it to Li Qingge. He then placed it in front of her nose.
Li Qingge shook his head like a rattle drum, "Isn't that some Baohua Spiritual Brewing Pill?" This is not like pills at all, this is clearly an ointment, right? "
"Would kneading the ointment into a pill affect the medicinal properties of the pill? "If you take it out to buy, it would be more suitable to make pills. If you take it out to eat, it can be made into whatever shape you want." Zhao An insisted. He made a circle with his chopsticks and rolled some up. "Have a bite."
"Eat first if you want!" Li Qingge wasn't fooled.
Zhao An nodded. He scooped up half a bowl of soup with a spoon and left half a bowl for Li Qingge.
After seeing Zhao An eat it in one bite, Li Qingge hesitantly dipped a spoon in it and placed it next to her mouth.
The fragrance filled his nose, not the bitter and unpleasant Chinese medicine, but the fragrance that was filled with nature, like the fragrance that was overflowing with spirit energy. Li Qingge looked at that pitch-black look, and wondered what would happen if he ate it? What if he lost consciousness after eating it? What if it was a big trap?
Zhao An pushed her hand forward and shoved the spoon into his mouth. The ointment was immediately applied to his tongue. Li Qingge was just about to get angry when she discovered that the taste … The taste seemed good.
"Why does it look like chocolate!" Li Qingge said in pleasant surprise.
Due to the chocolate's taste, Li Qingge quickly finished the rest. She put down the bowl with some reluctance, feeling her body heat up. It was similar to when she looked at the atlas of heaven.
"Can I start practicing Qing Gong now?" Although he didn't believe it just now, he could clearly feel the change now. Li Qingge couldn't help but look forward to it.
"It's still very early …" If you want to judge a person's talent, you need at least twenty bowls of these kinds of Baohua Spirit Nurturing Pills, and it will also depend on your body's absorption ability. " Of course, Zhao An was much calmer. In fact, this time, the refining process wasn't very successful. The medicinal strength was not pure enough, so the absorption rate of the body was slightly slower. The efficiency was not high.
Twenty bowls, that was one hundred thousand yuan. Although this amount of money was not much in Li Qingge's eyes, it was still not a small amount. Li Qingge was slightly disappointed.
"Five hundred yuan less, I only have two thousand here." Li Qingge took out her purse and gave Zhao An the two thousand yuan.
He didn't care about the money, but if he didn't accept it, Li Qingge would probably never eat it again. "Looks like I'll have to pay for the ride to your house tonight."
"Stingy." Li Qingge knew that he saw her purse just now. She only had a few dollars left in her purse, so it definitely wasn't enough to take a taxi.
