Chapter 5 Medicated baths
On the Su Mansion practice ground, a bronze tripod has been burned to a boil, inside is the mountain spring water transported back from several miles away, after the water boils, Su Wu slowly moved out of the firewood, turned into a low fire and simmered. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
After doing all this, he began to take out a medicine bag, sprinkled the crushed medicine foam evenly in the boiling water, and after a while, he smelled a strong medicinal fragrance.
"I feel like I'm going to be stewed and eaten." Looking at this scene, Su Chen was secretly curious in his heart, you must know that the ding is boiling water, could it be that the so-called foundation building is to throw him into this big ding and stew the herbs?
Of course not, after boiling for about half an hour, seeing that almost the medicinal power had been integrated into the water, at this time Su Wu directly removed the firewood and stopped heating.
After a while, he tried it with his hands, and the temperature cooled down enough to start, then he turned his head to Su Chen and said, "Chen'er, it's time, take off and go in." ”
"Ugh!"
Su Chen did as he said, when he stepped into this tripod, he only felt that his feet were about to be burned, but fortunately, it was winter, and it was freezing outside, and after a while, he got used to it, and then the whole person got into the tripod.
When he was immersed in the water, he only felt a hot stinging pain coming from every pore of his body, and it became more and more intense, he tried to shout, but the sound reached his throat, and he still held back.
Su Wu tested the temperature of the water with his hands from time to time, if the water was cold, he continued to add fire, the water was hot, and the fire was pulled, the process was boring and cumbersome, but there was no room for sloppiness.
100 days to build a foundation, not just talk, similar to this kind of medicinal bath needs to be soaked for a hundred days in a row, especially in the next ten days, the medicinal power is getting bigger and bigger, and the body is easy to eat and can't hold on, that is the key moment to determine the success or not.
He needs to soak for two hours a day, and after two hours, Su Chen has gradually become accustomed to this feeling, just like soaking in a hot spring, the difference is that he needs to endure the stinging pain from every part of his body.
"Childe, put on your clothes, don't freeze." At the end of the medicinal bath, Ying'er hurriedly handed over her clothes, and Su Chen put them on quickly, only to feel that her actions were much more comfortable than before, maybe this is the effect of the medicinal bath.
The medicinal bath on the first day was very smooth, and the absorption effect was also very good, Su Wei was very happy, and held a sumptuous banquet in the evening, and it could be seen that he was really happy.
Su Chen drank a little wine and asked curiously, "Father, I don't know how Tsukidan is taken?" ”
Hearing his question, Su Wei knew that he couldn't hold it back, so he didn't sell it immediately, and replied directly: "Chen'er, you don't know, the most difficult thing about building a foundation is not the first three months, but the last ten days, after discussing with your father and your uncle, I decided to divide the foundation pill into ten parts, so that you can take it in the last ten days, so as to support you to resist the pain of the medicinal bath." ”
"I see!" Only then did Su Chen know that the so-called Zhuji Dan, his effect was only to help people resist the consumption of the body in the last ten days of Zhuji, and with it, he could survive the most difficult ten days.
In these last ten days, the amount of medicinal bath doubles day by day, and the body absorbs the medicinal power and transforms the muscles and bones, which is almost a process of recasting the muscles and bones, and the degree of pain can be imagined.
The memory of the previous nine times is already a little blurry, and how can the pain of the real immersion be the same as what is imagined in the memory, just like today, although it is not the first time to experience it, his body has not developed great resistance, and still feels a strong tingling.
Speaking of the medicinal bath, Su Chen couldn't help but be curious about the ingredients of this medicinal bath, he had recently studied medicine, and he had a little foundation, so he took the opportunity to ask: "Father, what medicinal materials are needed for this medicinal bath?" Can you show your son the recipe? ”
"Absolutely!" Su Wei had no reason to disagree with this little thing, he asked Su Wu to give the recipe to Su Chen, Su Chen looked at it, and he didn't see any fame, these medicinal materials looked very ordinary, could it be that this amount of ratio has some magical effect?
"Hey, no, what is this Jiuyang flower, why haven't you heard of it?" Finally, Su Chen discovered a vital herb that he had never heard of before, nor had he seen it in his medical skills.
Seeing him looking at the prescription, Su Wei frowned deeply, and couldn't help asking, "What?" Any questions? ”
"Nope!" Su Chen subconsciously replied, "The child looked at this prescription and didn't find anything special, the only thing I didn't understand was what kind of herb this Jiuyang Flower was?" The child had never heard of it before. ”
"Nine hydrangeas?" Su Wei smiled when he heard this, "Chen'er, you are really observant, this Jiuyang Flower is the medicine primer of the medicinal bath, and it is a vital herb in it, let your Uncle Wu tell you specifically." ”
Su Wu said in a timely manner: "Childe, the recipes of this medicinal bath are all the same, the only difference is this Jiuyang flower, the better the quality of the Jiuyang flower, the better the effect of the medicinal bath, the Jiuyang flower grows in the extremely cold land, we can occasionally see it in the north, most of them are supplied by the Tianshan Mountain in the Western Regions, and the price is extremely expensive, although the Central Plains has been cultivated for a long time, but the effect is much inferior to that produced in the Western Regions, which is why the medicinal bath is so expensive, and the root is on the Jiuyang flower." ”
After listening to Wu Bo's explanation, Su Chen secretly paid attention, this Jiuyang Flower cannot be cultivated by others, but he can, his spiritual blood can help plants grow, and it can improve the quality of herbs, for him, this Jiuyang Flower is simply a moving treasure house.
"Then I don't know where I can buy a live hydrangea? Even the withered ones are fine. ”
"This..."Su Wu listened to his strange request, and looked at Su Wei face to face, and finally after Su Wei nodded, Su Wu agreed: "Childe, go to the neighborhood to try your luck, it is unlikely to live, because the cultivation of Jiuyang Flower is very complicated, but the dead should be able to buy, although Jiuyang Flower is dead, its rhizomes and leaves have extraordinary medicinal value, so it can also be bought." ”
"Preferably the one that has the potential to be saved." Su Chen added again.
"The old decay has written it down!"
After finishing the meal, Su Chen returned to the room, and had an ardent expectation for the legendary Jiuyang Flower in his heart, and only when he was a child did he fall asleep in excitement.
Early the next morning, he got up, first played a set of tai chi in the courtyard, and then walked straight to the practice ground.
As usual, it was a two-hour medicinal bath, and with yesterday's experience, this time it was not so painful, perhaps his body had developed a certain degree of resistance.
A month later, Su Chen felt that his body had improved greatly, running with all his might, as fast as the wind, far from the sick body a month ago, and now he was able to play a complete set of Tai Chi.
Two months later, Su Chen felt that he was strong enough to kill a cow, of course, this was just his thoughts, but for the sake of insurance, he still continued to practice Tai Chi, which was suitable for his current situation.
His every move was under the noses of Su Yu and the others, and Su Yu didn't ask where he learned this strange set of boxing techniques, he only knew that this was his son, maybe he had some adventure when he went out.
Everyone has their own luck, Su Wei traveled the rivers and lakes when he was young, and he also met many strange-tempered seniors, and he was also guided by those people, so it is not surprising about this.
Three months later, Su Chen found that the muscles on his body had already shown their outline, and the two hours of medicinal baths had no effect on him at all.
Today is the ninetieth day, and it is also the last day, starting tomorrow, the amount of medicinal baths will be increased one by one, the first day is doubled, the tenth day is tenfold, only after surviving the last ten days, can it be regarded as the real success of building the foundation.
Those who travel a hundred miles are half ninety, and the efforts of the first three months are all for the last ten days, and this battle cannot be lost.
On this day, Su Chen, as usual, got up early, and came to the training ground after exercising, and there were soldiers standing around here, these were all private soldiers in the house, although they had not practiced martial arts, but they were all warriors who had experienced battlefield battles.
Su Yu personally protected the Dharma for him, and after the medicinal bath was boiled, he immediately let him in: "Chen'er, it's time, let's go in." ”
As soon as Su Chenfu stepped into the medicinal bath, he found that there was a big difference from the previous one, after doubling the dosage, the pain was very intense, more than several times the original.
After a while, he was already sweating profusely in pain, and the water droplets on his head didn't know whether it was sweat or dew, and the whole person was extremely uncomfortable.
Su Wei had been observing his changes, and seeing that he was unbearable, he immediately ordered: "Quickly let him take Zhuji Dan!" ”
Wu Bo personally fed him the medicine, the pill melted in his mouth, and as soon as he entered his mouth, a cool breath spread all over his body along his throat, and he felt unprecedented relief, and the pain just now was really reduced a lot.
An hour later, Tsukidan's medicinal power was exhausted, and he felt a hot sting again, but fortunately, he had adapted for a while, so he finally persevered.
The second day, the third day, it was still the same, the difference was that with the increase in the daily dosage, the effect of Tsukidan became smaller and smaller, and many times he couldn't help but want to give up, but seeing his father's ardent hope and thinking of the fate of the family, he gritted his teeth and persevered.
Finally, it was the ninth day, and after the ninth medicinal bath, Su Chen felt as if he had been reborn, but he felt that he was still short of something, and he was only one foot away from being able to be reborn.
This time, he directly started a long fist in the big ding, and after a set of actions, the water splashed all over the ground, Su Wei still didn't ask him, but he became more and more curious about this son in his heart.
After a set of actions, Su Chen jumped out of Dading and took the clothes from the red-faced Ying'er, at this time, he felt that he had lived a personal life and became a man who stood up to the sky.
But as the so-called nine times around the mountain, the success fell short, of course Su Wei understood this truth, although the previous ones were smooth together, but thinking of the previous nine failures, he was cast a thick shadow in his heart, lingering.
Su Chen obviously also felt his father's thoughts, and at the same time, his heart was not calm, tomorrow's medicinal bath was very important, and he had to wait for it.
Is it really going to be okay?
