Chapter 146: Beginning to refine medicine
Jun Lan hugged Ye Feiyan a little tighter, and then put his mouth to her ear, "Because you are my Yan'er, you will have such thoughts as a husband." ”
He didn't say the rest of the words, because it was she who gave him the urge to hug her, get close to her, and stay with her for the first time.
Ye Feiyan stopped the movements in her hand and slowly calmed down the numbness that was wandering in her body because of Jun Lan's words, "Don't dare to have such thoughts in the future, such thoughts will also damage your body." ”
Jun Lan gently let go of Ye Feiyan in his arms, trying to suppress his impulses, "Well, I will listen to Yan'er and control my emotions." ”
Although it was painful, he didn't want to make his Yan'er sad, and he didn't want to scare her because of the poisonous hair.
Before dinner, General Zhao supervised the people he found to build three stoves, three clay pots with lids, and consciously prepared charcoal.
Accompanied by Junlan, Ye Feiyan inspected the three stoves, and after feeling satisfied, she let the fire be lit.
Ye Feiyan divided the six medicinal materials into six parts according to the proportion, first boiled the three parts into a clay pot, and then asked Zhao Zongbing to arrange three maids to guard the stove.
Ye Feiyan explained to the three maids how to control the fire in the furnace and take care of the medicine in the clay pot before going to dinner with Junlan.
Worried about the medicine boiling on the stove, Ye Feiyan and Jun Lan hurriedly finished their dinner, and then set up a table and two chairs in the courtyard, and they sat down, chatting while instructing the maid to stir the medicine in the clay pot from time to time.
About an hour later, Ye Feiyan looked at the medicine in the clay pot, and when she felt that it would not be long before she could start refining the medicine, she ordered Chang Feng to summon Yuan Yi to come over.
After lunch, Yuan Yicheng, who was waiting for Ye Feiyan to send someone to call him, finally looked forward to Chang Feng, and followed him to Junlan's courtyard excitedly.
Ye Feiyan had already filtered the paste from the three clay pots and put them in a small clean wooden barrel, while she had already instructed the three maids to start boiling the other three medicinal herbs.
Because the smoke and dust released by burning charcoal are not easy to emit when inside the house, Ye Feiyan moved the medicine stove to the pavilion in the courtyard, and after Yuan Yicheng and Chang Feng came closer, she began the specific operation of refining the medicine.
She first asked Chang Feng to place the charcoal that had already burned in the upper and lower drawer-like boxes of the medicine stove to preheat the medicine stove in advance.
Then she pulled out the middle drawer-like box, which was oddly shaped, with a hundred spherical abrasives the size of little fingertips, each with a small hole in the top layer.
Night Feiyan uncovered the upper layer of the box, and there were smaller spheres in the spherical abrasives formed by the upper and lower layers, and these spheres were controlled by a unified mechanism, and the size of the internal space of the abrasive could be adjusted by adjusting the tightness of the mainspring.
Ye Feiyan tested the sensitivity of the mechanism, and after feeling that there was no problem, she combined the upper and lower layers into one, and then took the matching funnel and aimed it at the small holes, and carefully poured the paste into the abrasive tool with a special spoon.
After all the abrasives were filled, Ye Feiyan first felt the temperature in the medicine furnace, and only after feeling that it was right did she push the abrasive disc into the furnace.
Because there is no thermometer, Ye Feiyan can only test the temperature with her own feelings, and from time to time order the wind to adjust the height of the box where the charcoal is placed up and down, so as to ensure the suitability and balance of the temperature up and down the grinding disc.
Every once in between, Night Feiyan pulls out the abrasive disc and adjusts the mainspring to reduce the size of the space inside the abrasive.
