Chapter 73: Dream Inquiry
Sweet and spicy grass, a special spice, due to its small production area, it is rare to see the sweet and spicy grass that is dried and ground into powder in the ordinary market, and most of it is directly sent to the upper class, and the aristocracy and capitalists can't stop it.
As for why it's so popular, there's a reason for that.
Ordinary people only know that adding sweet and spicy herbs to meat dishes, stir-fried or stewed, can add a special flavor to the food and increase the appetite.
Knowledgeable people often mention another effect of this sweet and spicy herb when they talk about it - sleep aid.
Simply adding the taste of food, this is a substitute, other spices or seasonings as long as the ratio is correct, the same can be done, the key lies in the effect of the back.
Mix sweet and spicy herbs into the soup, after drinking it will have a great sleep aid effect at night, generally speaking, you only need to drink a small bowl to sleep comfortably, even if the storm outside, will not wake up.
This is better than any medicine for those upper-class people who are busy with work and socializing, and have a very poor sleep due to heavy thoughts.
Drinking soup is always more acceptable than taking medicine, at least it doesn't make people feel like they're sick.
The above two effects are still only one-sided.

Donald felt sleepy not long after dinner, but today's meditation and spell skills training was not over, and he thought of the tea that Kann Antoine had given him and made himself a cup.
The effect was indeed good, just a few sips, the drowsiness was dispelled, and he turned back to make sure that the door was locked, and took out the things he had obtained from Oguf's hand from the lower level of the wardrobe where he had placed his underwear, the talent scroll, and three bottles of potions that were helpful for meditation.
I learned this method from Miss Audrey Bartlet.
Agile thinking, this is indeed a talent for wizards, and of course, as with the previous Clock Meditation Method, it also has limitations.
The first condition is similar to the clock meditation method, that is, the existence of mental power must be ensured, the reason is different, the above mentioned is that the brain of ordinary people cannot accept the blessing of agile thinking, and forcibly activating the talent will cause great brain damage.
It's like an ordinary car with a supercar engine in it, which is not to improve performance, but to destroy the car.
Wizards are different, after meditation, their brains can withstand more, and they can distribute part of the effect to the operation of mental power, so as not to cause too much load, and then their thinking ability can also be strengthened.
For wizards, this talent is undoubtedly very useful.
As for the other conditions, they are not so important under the premise of mental strength, and in the details, Donald confirmed that it does not conflict with himself.
The remaining key is how to make this potion, there are more than a dozen nouns in the material column and the state when they finally enter the potion, and they can't make a mistake, otherwise the final finished potion, not only is it ineffective, but there may also be side effects.
"So it seems that Sherlock must have been working on a talent potion during this time, where did he get the formula?"
Copying the materials into the notebook he had with him, Donald doubted that he would be able to collect all the items he had now, as well as the utensils that needed to be used, and that if he brought them home, he would surely attract Infinetta's attention.
After all, in the eyes of others, Donald is a religious scholar, and he has nothing to do with scientific experiments.
Put away the scroll and pick up the meditation potion on the table instead, a conical glass jug with a simple flip lid on top.
You can see that there is some light blue liquid in it, but the amount is not much.
At the time of the transaction, Oguf specifically mentioned the use of these potions, and each time he took a sip before meditation, it was about half a bottle.
Donald didn't think that the other party would dare to deceive him on such details, so he drank it without hesitation, and then took advantage of the time when the effects of the drug gradually took off, took off his clothes, and lay down in bed.
The scroll of the Clock Meditation Method was in the quilt, and now he couldn't meditate alone from the clock drawing on the scroll, and he didn't want to lie on the table all night.
Forget it once or twice, once a day, I'm afraid that while his mental power is growing, his neck will have to protest first, so he thinks of sleeping on the bed first, and then touching the meditation scroll.
In this way, it is possible to ensure that sleep can appear directly on the bed after the deep meditation, and the material of the meditation scroll is flexible and will not be damaged by unconscious body pressure.
Donald was sure he didn't have the habit of nibbling in the middle of the night.
After about 3 minutes, the scene in front of me became illusory, and my eyes gradually closed......
The meditation lasts for 2 to 3 hours, and after that, due to exhaustion, Donald normally goes straight to sleep, but tonight is different.
The moonlight provided a faint illumination of the bedroom through the windows, and Donald never drew the curtains, he did not like absolute darkness.
"Why can't you sleep?"
Looking at the ceiling with his eyes open, thinking about this, he didn't even feel sleepy, obviously he wanted to sleep very much when he first went upstairs.
Meditation does not have a refreshing effect, but rather promotes sleep, and this is the time when he sleeps.
Something went wrong, because of the meditative potion that I drank before?
Or is that refreshing cup of tea too good?
Click, click......
The sudden sound made Donald under the quilt shake all over, someone was opening the bedroom door!
He didn't make a sound immediately, but kept quiet as much as possible, rolled up the scroll in the quilt with his left hand and clipped it to the waistband of his pants and covered it with his pajamas, and reached under the pillow with his right hand, pulled out a pistol and held it in his hand, and continued to maintain a sleeping posture, tilting his head to look at the door, squinting slightly.
The crisp crackling sound of the door lock.
Infinita!
"Grant...... Grant?"
The pitch kept rising, and Infinita walked from the door to the bed, her voice changing louder, and by the time she reached Donald's bed, she had returned to the level of normal speech.
There was no response, and Donald chose to remain silent.
Placing something on the head of the bed and moving the chair next to the desk instead, Donald took the opportunity to open his eyes wider.
What the hell is she trying to do?
Infinita was fully dressed and unarmed, so it wasn't a "night attack" in any way.
His eyes turned and he quickly glanced at the bedside thing.
The light was dim, and I could barely see that it was a square box, with a large shadow in the center, and a small object that I hadn't noticed before, with a rounded shape.
A strange scent began to linger at the bedside, and Donald quickly held his breath while quietly opening the safety of the firearm.
Moving a chair and sitting down on the edge of the bed, Infinita placed the boxy box on her lap, as if pressing a button, and a rustling sound.
"On July 10th, the 21st dream inquiry began. ”
Speaking to himself, Donald on the bed suddenly panicked.
