"Nothing happened!" Yun Hao said decisively.
Ying Ying's expression flickered as she said, "Ying, ying, she went to take a bath …"
Xiao Yi touched the bag on his forehead, and said in disbelief: "It never happened! My head was so swollen, I just feel like I'm at a loss …"
"Cough, cough, cough …" Yun Hao quickly changed the topic: "That is Yan Yan, we still need to go to the hospital tomorrow morning, do we have time to refine pills now?"
The herbs they picked from the Little Qing Mountain had already been spat out and were placed on the table. Xiao Yi looked at the pile of herbs that looked like a small mountain and said: "We'll have to see if the pressure cooker can concoct pills now."
"I'll go find a pressure cooker for you right now!" Yun Hao ran towards the warehouse in a hurry.
Usually, Yun Hao cooked rice in a rice cooker, he did not cook soup or stew, the pressure cooker had long been placed in the warehouse, it's surface area had long ago turned gray, he still had to temporary take the pressure cooker out of the warehouse.
He took the key and walked to the small wooden house in the backyard. This was the warehouse for the Yun Hao's Family, and other than some items that he normally used but didn't want to part with, Yun Hao's father Yun Han had even used it as a place to store antique junk.
Yun Hao pushed open the warehouse's door, and the wooden door let out an obscure sound.
"Creak ~ ~"
He had not been in the warehouse for more than half a year, and he had already eaten a nose full of dust in an instant.
"Cough, cough …" As Yun Hao fanned the dust with his hands, he turned on the light in the warehouse.
After moving all the junk away, he finally found the pressure cooker, and just as he was about to leave, a wooden chest suddenly fell down on top of the pile of junk. Luckily Yun Hao reacted quickly and hid to the side to avoid getting smashed by the box.
He looked at the wooden chest and knew that this was something from his father's study. He also opened it and saw that it was filled with some random things, such as a broken watch, a pen, his father's diary, and some other stuff like envelopes. Yun Hao did not have the intention to pry into his father's private life, so he had never touched these things.
But this time, the box fell in front of him. An envelope opened and the paper inside came out.
When he was about to put the envelope back into the wooden chest, he accidentally saw a line of words written on it: The node of the moment will be wrong, and in my prime, there will be a mystery surrounding my father's attack. I will pay Yun Hao back at the shop, and I will truly be uneasy.
In the end, Yun Hao's Family was an antique shop, and Yun Hao's university also specialized in history. With regards to this half white piece of content, he naturally understood what it meant.
This was a letter his father wrote to a friend called Brother Qing before she died. He said that the time node was going to become chaotic and he did not comprehend the mystery left behind by Grandpa Yun Hao, saying that he would not be able to rest easy if he handed over the antique shop to Yun Hao, so he hoped that Brother Qing could help him take care of Yun Hao.
Usually, Yun Hao's father looked like an ordinary middle-aged man who was a little eccentric. Yun Hao had never seen any of his close friends or neighbors who drank and played chess. However, in this letter, his father's trust towards this Brother Qing could be seen between the lines.
Yun Hao was confused, who was this Brother Qing? Was it the person who gave him the money every year? And what was the mystery her father had inherited from her grandfather?
Yun Hao picked up all the envelopes on the floor and was about to read them carefully. Maybe from these letters, Yun Hao could understand why his father would carefully tell him to guard the antique shop when he was about to die, and maybe even know some of the secrets of this ancient shop.
Just then, Xiao Yi's voice came out from the kitchen, and he shouted out loud: "Yun Hao, haven't you found the pressure cooker yet?"
Yun Hao hurriedly put the letter back into the chest. For matters concerning the letter, he could only come back when he had the time.
"Coming, I found it."
He took the pressure cooker and ran to the kitchen. He placed the pressure cooker on the stove and said, "See, can this be used?"
Xiao Yi weighed the pressure cooker in his hand, and suddenly laughed at himself.
"What are you laughing at?"
"I'm just smiling, in my storage ring, there is a thousand year old black iron refined into a Pill Furnace, but now I need to use a pressure cooker to concoct pills. Damn, I really started a new school." Xiao Yi said.
"It doesn't matter if the white cat or the black cat is able to catch a mouse, it's still a good cat. Do you care if it's a Pill Furnace or a pressure cooker, as long as it can refine a pills, it's fine."
"You're right, let's begin." Xiao Yi said.
He placed the medicinal herbs that were sorted and placed in a convenient place. After adding some water into the pressure cooker, he ignited the fire on the stove. Then, he slowly added the medicinal herbs into the pressure cooker according to the order and quantity.
After all the medicinal ingredients were added, Xiao Yi covered the pressure cooker.
"That's it?" Yun Hao stood at the side, somewhat astonished, and said: "Isn't this a little too simple? It looks just like a stew in soup."
"It would be great if concocting pills was really that easy. This is only the first step, and I can use the high temperature to extract the medicinal properties of the medicinal herbs."
"But isn't high temperatures damaging the drug's properties?"
"From the beginning to the end, my battle qi will be entangled to protect the medicinal properties."
"Alright, alright. You are the one who specializes in pill concocting. Do whatever you want." Yun Hao could not figure out anything from staying in the kitchen, so he left the kitchen, leaving Xiao Yi to deal with it all by himself.
Yun Hao waited in the living room for a long time, feeling that his stomach was a bit bloated. He ran to the bathroom only to find that the bathroom's door was shut tight.
"Ying, ying?" Yun Hao shouted, and said: "Are you inside?"
"Ah!?" There was a trace of panic in her moaning voice as she quickly said, "Yinyin, Yinyin is bathing."
"Yinyin, you've been bathing for more and more time now. It's been almost an hour, are you still not done bathing?" Yun Hao said.
"Th-this …" Female, girls always have to bathe longer than boys, what's the matter, Brother Yun Hao, do you need to go to the toilet? "
"No rush, you go ahead and wash first, I'll hold it in."
She quickly went to the door of the bathroom and opened it, saying, "Brother Yun Hao, you can go in to the bathroom."
Yun Hao looked at Ying Ying in astonishment. She was still wearing the clothes she had worn during the day, and her body was extremely dry. There wasn't even a drop of water on her body.
"Did you really take a bath?" Yun Hao asked in confusion.
