Chapter 87, refining pills
"I wonder what the Divine Monarch commands?"
Just as Nan Hotaru was thinking about her thoughts, a warm voice interrupted all of Nan Hotaru's thoughts.
Nan Ying wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes without a trace, stabilized her mind and showed a faint smile towards the visitor: "Lord Shaogu, can you advance the time for refining the divine blade tomorrow?" ”
When Nan Su told him that Nan Hotaru was looking for him, he also told him the contents of the letterhead sent back by Ji Liuhuo by the way, so he didn't feel strange when he heard Nan Hotaru ask this time.
It's just that the time of the daily refining of the divine blade is calculated and set at the beginning, although tomorrow is the last day of refining, but it is also the most critical day, not to mention the time of tempering.
So Shao Yugui almost did not hesitate to reject Nan Ying's proposal: "No." Every noon is the peak of yang energy, only at this time to temper the divine blade, can the divine blade not stain the blood of the yin, if the time of tempering is advanced, the effect of the divine blade may be halved, and I hope that the divine monarch will focus on the overall situation. ”
Nan Hotaru lowered her head when she heard this, and did not speak sullenly.
Seeing this, Shao Yugui couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and said, "Shenjun think about it again." ”
"No need." Nan Hotaru smiled bitterly and shook her head, "Fang is my recklessness. Nan Hotaru paused, but the hand hidden in the quilt involuntarily touched the letterhead in his sleeve, "Lord Shaogu, I need to refine some elixirs that can detoxify the snake demon poison now, I wonder if I can extract some essence blood from my body without affecting the refining of the divine blade tomorrow?" ”
Shao Yugui naturally understood the use of the pill that Nan Ying wanted to refine, so he didn't say anything to persuade him, but asked softly, "How many pills does the Divine Monarch need to refine?" ”
"About a dozen or so." Nan Ying said and counted silently in her heart for a moment, "Ah Yan, Ah Li, Xiao Su, plus the six elders of Tanuki and Ten Thousand Demon Mountain, a total of ten, and I still need to prepare a few just in case, so I should be refining thirteen or fourteen." ”
Shao Yugui frowned, and his voice became serious: "How long does the Divine Monarch want a pill to be effective?" ”
Nan Ying also got serious when she heard this: "At least two days." ”
Shao Yugui sighed secretly, knowing that this matter was not trivial, and he thought about it for a while before making up his mind: "Shenjun wait for me for a moment." ”
Shao Yugui immediately left the room after finishing speaking, and it didn't take long for him to come back again.
Shao Yugui, who came back again, was holding a small wooden box in his hand, and from the outside, it looked a little old from the box, and it was not difficult to see the shallow spiritual power surrounding the box.
"What is this?" Nan Ying looked at the box in Shao Yugui's hand and couldn't help but ask suspiciously.
"This is a box that has been passed down by the valley masters of our Water Moon Valley for generations, and it contains many rare medicinal herbs from the Six Realms." Shao Yugui said lightly, and after putting the box on the wooden table on the side, he took out a palm-sized Dan furnace from his sleeve and placed it not far from Nan Ying's bed.
As soon as the Dan furnace fell to the ground, it immediately became four or five times larger, and Nan Hotaru could see the whole picture of this Dan furnace clearly.
The furnace is made of ancient bronze, and the blue-black furnace is carved with many strange charms, and the foot of the furnace is four carved lifelike dragons, each with a bead in its mouth.
And if you look closely, you can see that the beads are also densely covered with charms.
When Shaoyu Guiyi took out this Dan furnace, Nan Ying noticed the spiritual power emanating from this Dan furnace, although it was extremely shallow, it was extremely mellow.
"This is the secret Dan furnace of Shuiyue Valley, and according to legend, it was left by the ancestor of Shuiyue Valley back then." Shao Yugui explained as he picked out the suitable medicinal materials from the wooden box that had just been opened and put them into the Dan furnace.
"This Dan furnace is indeed the most beloved of the Shennong clan back then." Nan Hotaru said with a smile.
After about half a pillar of incense, Shao Yu saw that the pill in the Dan furnace seemed to be about to take shape, so he said to Nan Ying, who had been waiting aside: "Offended." ”
Nan Hotaru chuckled, but didn't say anything, and directly stretched out her right hand.
But in the blink of an eye, Nan Hotaru's wrist suddenly cracked a thin opening, and then a small stream of blood spread out. Shao Yu didn't raise his head, but just stretched out his hand and drew a few characters on the top of the furnace, and then the blood flew out of Nan Ying's wrist at one time, and slowly fell into the Dan furnace in an orderly manner.
Shao Yugui stood in front of the furnace for a while, and after making sure that the blood flow had successfully fused and infiltrated with the medicinal materials in the furnace, he walked away from the furnace, took out a few herbs from the box again, used spiritual power to extract the medicinal power, and quickly turned a few pills out of his palm.
"When the blood stops, you'll take these pills." Shao Yugui said and handed the pill in his hand to Nan Hotaru.
Nan Ying took the pill, slightly bent the corners of her mouth and looked at Shao Yugui and said, "Thank you." ”
After about half a pillar of incense, the blood flow on Nan Ying's wrist was suddenly stopped, and then the wound disappeared without a trace. Seeing this, Nan Ying didn't dare to hesitate, and immediately swallowed the medicine that Shao Yugui handed her before.
As soon as the medicine was swallowed, Nan Ying felt a warm current pass through his heart, and the originally empty sea of qi suddenly became a spiritual power surging at this time, and even the discomfort caused by the excessive blood loss caused by the tempering divine blade two hours ago also disappeared without a trace at this moment.
Shao Yugui had already put the final touch on the pills in the Dan Furnace at this time, and when he saw that Nan Ying's complexion had returned to ruddy, he breathed a sigh of relief and retreated to the side.
Because the previous loss was suddenly made up at this time, Nan Hotaru also regained her strength, walked down from the bed, and stood still in front of the Dan furnace.
Looking inside from the mouth of the furnace, I saw eleven pills glowing with purple light lying quietly at the bottom of the furnace at this time, although Nan Ying was not good at this, she could also distinguish the texture of these eleven pills at a glance, all of them were extremely high-quality.
"Divine Monarch, please rest assured, each of these eleven pills can maintain its effectiveness for more than three days after consumption, so there is no need to prepare more." Shao Yu Gui saw that Nan Yingmian was puzzled, so he explained, "The extra one was prepared for myself. Shao Yugui said, and suddenly knelt down on one knee in front of Nan Ying, "Shao Yugui of Shuiyue Valley, I am willing to follow the Divine Monarch and contribute to the Divine Monarch's plan." ”
Nan Ying was stunned for a long time by Shao Yugui's sudden move: "You don't have to get involved in this right and wrong." ”
"Divine Monarch, rest assured, I have made arrangements in the Water Moon Valley, if I unfortunately die, there will naturally be elders in the valley to support the new valley lord to take office, and there will be no changes due to my death." Shao Yugui said categorically, his tone was firm and solemn, "The Divine Monarch saved Xiao Qi, and I am gracious, so I am willing to follow the Divine Monarch in my personal name and swear to serve to the death." ”
Nan Ying saw that Shao Yugui had made up her mind, so she no longer refused, but sighed lightly, stretched out her hand and helped her weakly: "Get up." ”
Shaoyu returned to see that Nan Ying did not refuse him again, so he breathed a sigh of relief and stood up.
After Shao Yugui took out the pill from the furnace, Nan Ying took out three small porcelain bottles, and after filling the medicine separately, she handed one of the porcelain bottles to Shao Yugui: "There are three pills in here, you take it to the poplar forest, if there is no accident, you should meet Ah Li on the road." ”
Shao Yugui was puzzled, but still according to Nan Ying's words, he took the porcelain bottle and put it away: "Shenjun, please command." ”
"Your medical skills are unparalleled in this world, so I want you to go back to the poplar forest with Xili first, and find Dongyan, I want you to save Dongyan's life, even if it's just a breath, let him hold on until I pass." Nan Ying said word by word, "Those three pills, you and the two of them will each have one." I hope that by the time I arrive, you and Ah Li will be fine. ”
"Yes." Shao Yugui also knew the urgency of this matter, so he didn't hesitate anymore, and immediately got up and rushed to the outside of the Soul Mountain.
After sending Shaoyu away, Nan Ying did not breathe a sigh of relief, the effect of the pill was only three days, so she had to arrange everything within today, and strive to solve everything as quickly as possible after reaching Silver Moon City.
Nan Hotaru glanced at the other two porcelain vases in her hand, thought about it, and finally walked out of the house.
When the disciples in the door came to report that Ziyu was asking to see her, Nansu was sullen in the house, and when he heard this, he only waved his hand and asked the disciple to bring Nan Ying in, but he didn't even have the heart to care about how Nan Ying got out of bed.
As soon as Nan Hotaru walked into Nanjuku's house, she saw Nan Su sitting facing the door, and when she saw her enter the door, she didn't get up, but just glanced at her and shouted "Master", and then she didn't make a sound again.
Nan Hotaru sighed secretly in her heart, she didn't expect that after so many years, Nan Su's temperament hadn't grown much, and she still loved to make a little awkward in front of her as always.
It's just that at this time, she didn't have the heart to ask Nansu, but strode forward and put the porcelain bottle in her hand in front of Nansu, pointed to one of them and said, "Send this to Tanuki." ”
Nansu asked sullenly, "What is this?" ”
"The antidote to the venom of the beetle snake." Nan Hotaru said and pointed to another bottle, and said lightly to Nan Su, "This one is for you." ”
"For me?" Nansu didn't even look at it, only held the porcelain bottle for Tanuki in his hand, and said angrily, "I don't need it, my father needs it, you can find someone to send it to him." ”
Nan Ying glanced at Nan Su angrily: "I naturally found someone to send it to him, this bottle is for you, do you want to love it, don't"
