Chapter 13: Fooling Through (II)

Putting aside the worries about the changes for the time being, even if there is a big change in the outside world, I am powerless to interfere as a small magician, not to mention that I have no interest in interfering. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 Info thinks that back then, about a hundred years ago, the outside world was also changing almost every day, and I still lived almost half of my house until I was abducted by the mysterious Sister Purple to this poor and remote land called Gensokyo, and the advantage was naturally the pristine natural landscape that was preserved due to poverty and seclusion.

"Miss Alice?" Suzu reached out and shook it in front of my eyes.

"Huh? Oh, and it's still during the interrogation," I snapped back to my senses, glancing around, "Do Patchy and Aqiu have any more questions?" Ah, and Acupuncture Pills. ā€

"Because it's small, it's incidental......" Akinmyomaru

"I didn't." Patsy.

"Not yet." Ahkey.

"Looks like Suzu is about to pass," I said, "so I won't continue to embarrass you." ā€

"Thank you, Your Excellency! I am also grateful to all the prosecutors for their kindness! "Kanban Niang behaved quite earnestly.

It is true that justice and grace are not contradictory sometimes, but if they were to be fair this time, I think that the daughter of the audacious bookstore would probably have been put in a cage and paraded around the streets, and I thought about it and decided to give up scaring her, in case she dragged me into the water - in fact, I had little to do with this incident other than verbal orders to the three spirits, and one of the important reasons why I gave up holding her accountable was also for the sake of preserving the fragile reputation of the Witch of Hakurei.

"But, let's talk about what the 'elixir' you configured this time to clear everyone's stomach and intestines?" That's where we get to business.

It seems that because there are no worries, Xiao Ling's explanation is no longer rambling, she opened the illustrated book, pointed to a plant with flower buds on the top, long serrated leaves on the thin stems that stretch from top to bottom, and the whole dwarf seems to be a herbaceous plant, "It is the most easily recognizable grass on the illustrated book, I have also seen it in the ravine outside the village, so I will use it to practice first." ā€

Since I couldn't understand the text introduction, I could only continue to look at her and wait for the answer.

"I've also carefully chosen, oh, the nomenclature of this grass is a bit strange, I don't know how to translate it into Japanese or Chinese for the time being, and because I don't know the pronunciation of the youkai script, I can't even transliterate it. The illustrated book is concise and vague about its efficacy, but I didn't see any side effects, so I dared to practice it. ā€

If there are no side effects, why are you afraid to try the drug yourself? I didn't raise the question.

"It is true that as an illustrated book, it is possible to keep the explanation as concise as possible," I said, "but wouldn't that be a medical book in its own right?" ā€

"Oh, I forgot to tell you," Xiao Ling hurriedly added, "these two books," she pointed to the Compendium of Materia Medica and the Illustrated Book, "this is called the Compendium of Materia Medica, and this is the companion Compendium of Materia Medica." ā€

"It's just a set, no wonder you got carried away with excitement just now."

"Eh, yes, is that so......"

"That's why we can easily suspect you." Aqiu mends the knife.

"......" Kanban Niang hurriedly returned to the state of explanation, "Ah, in short, the main effect of this grass that I don't know how to pronounce is to condense qi, calm the nerves, nourish the primordial spirit, and so on." ā€

"Seems good, where did you pick it?"

"Well, although I have seen it in a ravine not far from the village, but the illustrated book also indicates that it must be a grass that grows for more than ten years to exert enough spiritual effect, and the method of judging seems to be to look at the color of the flower bud, yes, the flower bud blooms once a year, and it withers in a few days, and the flower bud that grows from the beginning is light pink, and the color of the flower bud that grows out after it deepens year by year, and it becomes orange when it goes up to the tenth year, and the picking period is between May and July every year. When the buds are about to bloom, it is the best time to pick the most potent and undissipated. ā€

"It's so troublesome...... "It seems that you have to wait for the flowers to bloom?"

"This time, in order to try to refine medicine," Xiao Ling winced again, "I—I gave and picked most of the herbs that could be used in medicine." ā€

"What mud?" I slapped the table and stood up, scaring the little bell who was already a little frightened and had a tendency to be a little frittered little animal, lying on the table with her head in her hands, so I sat back down, "Ah, forget it, I don't plan to learn alchemy anyway." ā€

"Hoo ......"

"Why are you relieved? Even the bad behavior of making everyone eat bad stomach will not be investigated, can you still be held accountable for destroying a little ecological balance? ā€

"Anyway, I know I'm wrong, please spare me!"

"Okay, I won't stimulate you with words."

"Thank you so much."

Patchy leaned close to me and whispered, "Alice, why do you seem to be more like a professional shrine maiden than Reimu?" ā€

"Isn't this the first time I've patronized Renli since I became a temporary shrine maiden, so I deliberately made myself look more majestic."

"Oh." She deliberately looked me up and down again, which made me a little uncomfortable.

After the vignette, Xiao Ling continued to explain: "The medicine part, including flower buds, long leaves, stems and roots, can be matched according to the proportion to become the 'Jun' part of the finished elixir." ā€

"What?"

"The traditional classification of medicines, including titles such as Junchen Zuo Envoy, Jun is the main ingredient that exerts its medicinal effect."

"Ah, please continue."

"I really didn't mess around, I chose the ingredients for the first time according to some of the pills provided in the appendix of the illustrated book, in addition to the unknown grass, including the more common rhubarb, plantain, desmodium, and so on."

Ah Qiu interjected: "The part that causes everyone to eat bad stomach must be rhubarb, right?" It is an ingredient that is commonly used to defecate the intestines. ā€

"Uh...... Maybe. In general, that's all for the above ingredients, sorry for the inconvenience again. ā€

"It doesn't sound like a poison," I said in my own superficial opinion, "is it really an elixir?" ā€

"I've got some left!" Suzu seems to be planning to offer treasure.

"Oh, there's still left? Just in case, you have no problem with all the confiscation, right? ā€

"No, no, all of them are filial to the shrine maiden."

Nice girl.,Although there are some dog-legged looks under the original form.,But which girl doesn't have a little flaw.,As long as you don't mess around, you can still be saved.怂

I saw her run to the counter and take out a small wooden box from underneath, purple in appearance, as smooth and translucent as a layer of paint.

"It's all in it, but it's a pity that I haven't practiced the legendary pills, they are all in the form of medicinal powder."

I opened it and looked at it, the powdered "immortal medicine" revealed several colors, it seemed that it was a rough mixture of various medicinal materials after grinding, Xiao Ling was just an approximate ordinary person who didn't have many magical means, and it was indeed impossible to use the legendary method to refine the medicine into an elixir, "I'll go back and study it." ā€

Seeing that the situation had been completely relaxed, Ah Qiu said: "The big thing is solved, come and run the business for me, Xiaoling help me find a few materials, I'll wait to go home and use it urgently." ā€

"You say, I'll look for it right away."

Miss Suzu will have to continue to play the role of dogleg for a while, and Patsy and I, including the villain, will be next to each other and look through the illustrated book to pass the time for a while.
