Chapter Twenty-Six: The Medicine You Have Refined Yourself Will Drink with Tears in Your Eyes
Lu Yu was clear about the several major steps of refining medicine, but when it came to the specific operation, Lu Yu was a little stupid. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Lu Yu only remembered that at that time, the alchemist casually grabbed a few medicinal herbs, threw them into the medicine furnace in order, and then guarded aside, and when the time came, the pill would be fine.
A decent medicine furnace, Lu Yu didn't have it. So he had to use a clay pot when the meat was cooked.
As for which kinds of medicinal materials to use, how much to use each, and what the order is, Lu Yu didn't know.
Lu Yu could only find a few strains with similar medicinal properties that could be used for nourishment according to what was written in the encyclopedia of medicinal materials.
Then, Lu Yu felt that which medicinal herb was not easy to cook, so he threw it into the medicine jar first. Which herbs are easy to boil, put them last.
And when Lu Yu put all the medicinal materials into the medicine jar, he began to concentrate on adding fire and kept boiling.
As for how far it will be boiled, Lu Yu is also unclear. There is only one general introduction in the book, saying that it will take about an hour or two.
But Lu Yu remembered that when the alchemists of Wanwu Valley were refining pills, most of them took several hours, and sometimes even a day of refining.
After weighing it for a while, Lu Yu decided to choose a compromise time.
Simmer for four hours.
Therefore, Lu Yu has been busy from morning to now, and he can't even bother to drink saliva.
And when the four hours were over, the medicine that Lu Yu had refined was finally baked.
"Brother Lu, are you sure you're not mistaken. It doesn't look like something to eat. ”
Tietou looked at Lu Yu's face cautiously and said in a low voice. There was a thick skepticism in his tone.
As for Lu Yu, his face is also quite tangled now.
For the first time since he was born, Lu Yu had doubts about his talent.
Not to mention the iron head, what was placed in front of him, even Lu Yu himself couldn't bear to look at it directly.
Lu Yu really didn't want to admit that the black, semi-viscous, and smelly thing in front of him was the "medicine" that he had worked hard for four hours.
The gap between reality and my own imaginary results is too big.
Maybe it's for the sake of face, maybe it's for something else, Lu Yu looked at his results, gritted his teeth and said, "Since it's been boiled out, it can't be wasted." Whether it has any effect or not, you will know when you drink it. ”
"What, Brother Lu, you have to drink this thing. Lu Yu's words startled Tietou, and he hurriedly said, "Brother Lu, I think it's better to forget it." This thing, I look at it a little sick to my stomach, if you drink it, what if something happens. ”
"It's so serious, I use some nourishing herbs. Even if it doesn't work, nothing big can happen. ”
Looking at the half bowl of black things, Lu Yu seemed to be looking for an excuse to comfort himself.
"Besides, whether this thing is useful or not can't be just based on appearances. ”
But Tietou was still not at ease, and said weakly: "Even if you don't talk about the appearance, it's just the taste, and I want to vomit when I smell it." ”
"What's the taste, haven't you heard of the bitterness of medicine. The worse the taste, the better the medicine boils. ”
"But ......"
Lu Yu's words, no matter how they sounded, they seemed to be arguing with strong words. Tietou really didn't want Lu Yu to drink this bowl of things.
"But what, you're not done. It's me who drinks it, not you, where did you get so much nonsense. While staying away. ”
Lu Yu, who was already weak-hearted, was upset by Tietou's repeated questions, and hurriedly found an excuse to train Tietou, and then pushed him aside.
If you let Tietou continue to speak, Lu Yu really doesn't know if he still has the courage to face the half bowl of "medicine" in front of him.
After pushing the iron head aside, Lu Yu took several deep breaths, trying his best to calm down his panicked self.
Then, Lu Yu looked at the half bowl of medicine in front of him, summoned the greatest courage in his life, and took the bowl up.
The wind is sluggish and the water is cold, and the strong man is gone.
Around Lu Yu, such a melody sounded inexplicably.
In line with the realization that long pain is better than short pain, and that you have to be stabbed if you stretch your head and shrink your head, Lu Yu closed his eyes and poured all the half bowl of medicine into his mouth without looking at it.
The iron head next to him looked at this scene, and involuntarily shouted from the bottom of his heart - Brother Lu is heroic.
"Smack".
Before the iron head could finish sighing, he only heard a crisp sound, and the bowl in Lu Yu's hand fell to the ground and immediately shattered into several pieces.
This startled the iron head and hurriedly ran over.
At this time, Lu Yu's whole body was lying on the table uncontrollably, grabbing the edge of the table with both hands, and his whole body kept trembling.
Lu Yu's face, which was originally quite handsome, had been distorted to the extreme at this time.
That's not a human face anymore.
Tietou even saw a little tear in Lu Yu's eyes.
The half bowl of medicine was poured into Lu Yu's mouth, and it could be seen from Lu Yu's bulging cheeks that most of the medicine was still in Lu Yu's mouth, and he didn't swallow it at all.
Tietou looked at Lu Yu anxiously on the side, very worried that something would happen to Lu Yu.
At this time, Lu Yu can only use one sentence to describe his current feelings.
It's so exciting.
Lu Yu really didn't expect that he would be able to make such a powerful thing.
It's so powerful that I want to die right away.
The bowl of medicine originally emitted a peculiar smell that made people smell sick. When Lu Yu drank the half bowl of medicine into his mouth without hesitation, the smell instantly increased thousands of times.
Sour, sweet, bitter, spicy, salty, all kinds of extreme flavors come in turn, constantly destroying Lu Yu's taste buds. Lu Yu even felt a strong stench in it.
Lu Yu felt that his sense of taste was destroyed by this strong stimulation in an instant, and he was awakened by an even stronger stimulation in the next second.
This cycle repeatedly, making Lu Yu fall deeper and deeper into the abyss.
What's more, because Lu Yu wanted to solve it as soon as possible before, he poured it too hard, and a small mouthful of medicinal liquid had already entered the esophagus down his throat and finally reached his stomach.
This stimulation also spread from the mouth to Lu Yu's whole body.
The nerve endings of the landing plume are constantly beating all over the body.
This is the reason why Lu Yu trembles all over.
In the end, Lu Yu, who couldn't control his crying, couldn't help but roar in his heart.
How could it be like this!
The ones I use are all nourishing herbs, and what I want to refine are medicines that can be used to help me cultivate.
In the end, I made this kind of thing.
Life, life, why are you playing such a joke with me?
"Brother Lu, are you okay?"
It's okay, do you think I'm okay right now?
I really regret it now, why wasn't I shot to death by those Dao masters in the first place?
Otherwise, I wouldn't have done such a stupid thing with a convulsion.
Lu Yu's heart was already flooded with bitterness, and his two eyes couldn't help but shed tears.
But in front of the iron head, Lu Yu really didn't want to admit his current embarrassment.
Lu Yu's small self-esteem was even more reluctant to be hurt because of this stupid thing.
Looking at the nervous iron head, Lu Yu turned his heart sideways, stiffened his head, and swallowed most of the medicine in his mouth with supreme will.
Just listening to the sound of "coo", Lu Yu instantly realized the taste of being loveless.
But there is no way, the medicine I have refined myself, I have to drink it with tears.
I can't let down the iron head who has always trusted me, no.
Lu ...... Brother Lu, why did you drink all those medicines. ”
Seeing that Lu Yu drank it, the iron head next to him immediately jumped to his feet and shouted.
Lu Yu barely got up from the table, feeling that his body was directly hollowed out, and his hands and feet were a little weak.
"Drink it all, what's wrong?"
The iron head said anxiously: "Looking at your uncomfortable appearance just now, there must be something wrong with those medicines." I was about to make you vomit, why don't you just drink it? ”
"What's the problem, you think too much, there's no problem at all. ”
Lu Yu endured the devastation of the medicinal liquid, and said stubbornly: "I was like that just now, just because the smell of that medicine was a little strange. But as I said, the medicine is bitter, and the effect of this medicine is still good. I haven't worked in vain for four hours. ”
In order to save his face, Lu Yu had to say something against his will that he didn't even believe him.
Fortunately, Tietou believes that Lu Yu is used to it. Moreover, all the medicines were drunk by Lu Yu, and even if Tietou had doubts, there was no way to verify them.
"Brother Lu, are you really okay?"
Tietou could only ask again uneasily.
"Of course it's okay, look at me now, I look like there's something. ”
In order to completely bluff the iron head, Lu Yu stiffened his somewhat weak limbs and stood up hard. Then he took two steps in front of the iron head and moved.
Seeing Lu Yu like this, Tietou didn't ask again. Although there was still some muttering in his heart, Lu Yu insisted that he was fine, and Tietou had no choice.
Iron Head had no choice but to bend down and pick up the broken bowl on the ground first.
Lu Yu, who saw this scene, finally breathed a sigh of relief.
This kid with the iron head is also too straightforward, and he is a little difficult to fool.
Tietou looked at some of the black liquid left on the broken bowl, and thought of Lu Yu's painful appearance just now, so he actually made a ghost come up and sniffed it with his nose.
At such a close distance, the smell immediately entered the iron head's nasal cavity, and then filled the iron head's entire head.
Tietou instantly felt the world spinning, and a strong stimulus permeated his whole body, making him involuntarily hit a spirit.
Iron Head quickly raised his head, covered his mouth and nose with one hand, and kept retching.
If it weren't for the fact that Tietou was busy helping Lu Yu today, and he didn't eat much at noon, he would have vomited out.
After retching a few times, the iron head, which eased slightly, looked at Lu Yu with incredible eyes.
It became like this just by smelling it, and Lu Yu actually drank most of the bowl just now.
Lu Yu, who was weak-hearted, was even more uncomfortable by the iron head, and coughed a few times to cover it up.
"Uh, that. The medicinal power of this medicine is relatively strong, and I need to cultivate and absorb it now. Iron head, you can clean up this place first, and don't bother me if you have nothing to do. ”
After speaking, Lu Yu hurriedly fled.
