Chapter 45: Goodbye Alain
Qin Hao did not go back to the store after separating from Lu Chengcheng and Lao Xu, but bought some herbs and took the bus directly back home. At this time, his father didn't go home, so Qin Hao had no choice but to cook the meal first, and then began to tinker with his own elixir.
He opened the herbs he had bought from the pharmacy and shook his head helplessly, although these herbs could cure diseases, they were powerless when they encountered real incurable diseases.
You know, since the great steelmaking in the last century, the trees on the mountain have been cut down, and those precious plants have also suffered, and the wild herbs have been greatly reduced.
However, with the substantial improvement of people's living standards and incomes, more attention is paid to health care, so there are many people who take supplements indiscriminately, which makes people who do not need treatment waste a lot of medicinal materials, and patients who need treatment have no medicine.
In the end, in order to meet the needs of the domestic market, pharmaceutical companies can only use artificial cultivation to increase production. Of course, the output of medicinal materials is up, but the quality of medicinal materials is worrying, abandoning pesticide residues, not to mention, due to the large use of chemical fertilizers, resulting in medicinal materials can not absorb enough sun and moon essence, the effectiveness of medicinal materials is naturally greatly reduced.
This process is similar to KFC on the market, where the white feather chickens used are only 40 days old, and these chickens do not walk more than 100 steps from hatching to entering people's tables. It can be seen that this kind of ripened white-feathered chicken is far inferior to the free-range local chicken in rural areas in terms of taste and nutrition.
Straight to the point!
Qin Hao began to refine the pills after classifying the herbs, because these Chinese medicine decoction pieces purchased from the pharmacy are all dry goods, so they must be soaked in water before they can be used, and this time is generally half an hour.
Taking advantage of the soaking time, Qin Hao extracted the wild ginseng from the auction first.
Opening the furnace and lighting the fire, in one go, Qin Hao now has quite a lot of experience, so he did not appear to be in a hurry when extracting wild ginseng.
However, in order to ensure that one step was in place, he did not rush to use the fire refining at first. Half an hour was enough time for him to finish extracting the wild ginseng.
Next, Qin Hao began to extract other herbal pieces, these herbs are all ordinary colors, so there is not so much attention to when refining, Qin Hao finished extracting the remaining pieces in less than twenty minutes, and the next thing is the concentration process, which consumes some time.
An hour later, Qin Hao saw that the medicinal juice in the alchemy furnace was almost concentrated, so he used starch as a matrix to synthesize pills.
The pill-making process was relatively easy, and after ten minutes, a total of 100 Pei Yuan Dan were refined. Qin Hao carefully put the pill into the porcelain bottle, and then turned off the fire.
At this moment, Qin Yu and Chen Lihua returned home, and as soon as they entered the house, they smelled the special medicinal fragrance, and suddenly there was an indescribable pleasure. Qin Yu didn't know what his son had done, so he asked.
Qin Hao didn't hide it and came truthfully. It's just that he didn't mention the master's gossip furnace, and Qin Yu saw that his son was hiding something, so he also pretended not to see it.
Next, the family had a happy dinner. After the meal, Qin Yu reminded: "Hao'er, you have made some progress in medicine during this time, but you must not relax." ”
"The ancestor of our old Qin family is a great man, if you can inherit the will of the ancestor, why don't my old Qin family prosper!"
"Dad, just put it down! I'm going to study hard! ”
Qin Yu saw that his son was starting to be sensible, and he also felt very happy. No one knew what he was thinking at this time, and Qin Hao still thought that he was a poor second generation.
Next, Qin Hao found an excuse to go back to the city, but Qin Yu didn't keep him, but just reminded him to be careful on the road.
Watching his son get into the car, Qin Yu came to his son's room, and then took out Biyou Zhenren's alchemy furnace and exclaimed, "Wife, do you know what this is?" ”
Chen Lihua said casually: "It's just an alchemy furnace, nothing special."
Qin Yu shook his head and explained, "Your eyes are still not sharp enough, the origin of this alchemy furnace is not simple. This is an old antique, Biyou Zhenren's alchemy furnace, does Biyou Zhenren know? He was the last powerful person in the ancient period, and this person had extremely high achievements in the Dan Dao, even my Xu Fu Ancestor was impressed by him. ”
"It's a pity that the biggest failure of Biyou Zhenren's life is to accept an ungrateful disciple Lang Feng, it is rumored that Lang Feng not only took advantage of his unpreparedness to seriously injure him, but also took away his "Dan Dao Notes", and I don't know who this book is now?"
Chen Lihua said curiously: "Lao Yu, how did you say that this alchemy furnace fell into Hao'er's hands?" Will the "Dan Dao Notes" also fall into his hands, if this is really the case, I am afraid that my son is the luckiest generation of your old Qin family! ”
Qin Yu laughed and said: "There is this possibility, but this kind of thing cannot be forced, if Hao'er can get the "Dan Dao Notes", then the ancestor's elixir is probably expected to reappear in the world." ”
Chen Lihua didn't continue to speak, she cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks at home, and then prepared to sleep, she was also tired this day.
On the other side, Qin Hao returned to the city, he did not go to the store, but returned to the rented house. At this time, Squeak was lying on the sofa of the guest and munching melon seeds, watching TV, looking very leisurely.
"Brother Qin, why are you back, how are things going?"
"It's all done, I'll send it to Lao Xu's wife tomorrow! By the way, did you have dinner? If you don't eat, I'll take you out to eat! ”
"Yes, yes! I knew that Brother Qin was the best for me. ”
After saying that, Squeak quickly turned off the TV, and then prepared to go out. Qin Hao put the pills away, and then left the rental house with Squeak.
Just when the two of them were walking casually on the road, they suddenly squeaked involuntarily and looked back, Qin Hao was puzzled: "Squeak, what did you find when you looked back?" ”
Squeaked and said seriously: "Brother Qin, we seem to be being followed!" ”
"Tracking? No, I don't have any money, I don't have any treasures, why are people following me? ”
"I don't know, but I'm sure there's someone following us! And more than one, it should be two! Squeak has a keen sense of smell, so the person who follows her thinks it's done perfectly, but still can't escape her perception.
Qin Hao naturally didn't notice it, she was pulled down a corner by Squeak, and then used the stealth method to envelop her whole body.
After a while, two people dressed as night walkers walked over, they didn't find Qin Hao and Squeak, thinking that they had lost it, and they were annoyed.
"Where's this bastard? I can't feel it! ”
"I didn't feel it, did we find out? Let's go, we'll be waiting outside his rental house, he'll always come home! ”
The two discussed for a while and felt that this was the only way, so they turned back and left.
Seeing the stalker leaving, Squeak removed the stealth formation, and stared at Qin Hao and said, "Brother Qin, when did you become targeted by the people of the Mermaid Clan?" ”
Qin Hao shook his head and said that he didn't know, but he was curious how Squeak would know about the mermaid clan.
Squeaked: "Don't forget, I'm a spirit beast, as long as I am a spirit beast, I have a bloodline inheritance, since I can successfully transform into a shape, the bloodline inheritance will naturally manifest." ”
Qin Hao finally understood, and then the two of them continued to move forward, they came to the food street, and suddenly squeaked and began to indulge themselves, wanting to have a copy of anything delicious, Qin Hao had no choice but to rely on her.
Just as the two of them were about to eat, a man wearing a black scarf suddenly arrived.
Qin Hao looked up and immediately said happily: "Alan, why are you back, sit down and tell me what's going on?" Last time you said goodbye, I thought you would never meet me again. ”
Seeing Qin Hao's excited appearance, Alan knew that the other party had not forgotten her, so he took off his headscarf.
"Brother Qin, I worried you last time, and I won't be in the future!"
"By the way, who is she?"
Qin Hao introduced Squeak, but he didn't expect the two daughters to hit it off at first sight, and then immediately became good sisters.
"Squeak, I first met Brother Qin, so I'm a big sister, and you're a younger sister!"
"Sister Lan, I'll listen to you! By the way, when I came here just now, I found two people from the Mermaid Clan, what the hell are they trying to do? ”
"What else can they do, they were only ordered to come and bring me back, but this time I didn't let them catch me so easily."
Squeaky laughed and said, "Sister Lan, or I'll beat them up for you, so they won't dare to be presumptuous!" ”
Alan thought for a moment and felt that Squeak's proposal was good, so he said, "Then don't be too ruthless!" Their nature is not bad, and besides, they are also under orders, and it is not good for me to hurt them. ”
Squeak reassures Alain that she has a serious hand. Then the three of them were ready to go back after eating and drinking, but Alain followed from a distance, so no one knew of her existence.
At this time, the time and space around Alan were distorted, and if it was an ordinary mortal, he would not be able to see her at all.
Qin Hao, who was walking in front, and Squeak began to discuss countermeasures, after all, there were two mermaid guards, and Squeak was okay to deal with one, but if it was two people, she was not sure of winning.
When it was almost time to rent out the house, Squeak had already found two mermaid guards, she made eye contact with Qin Hao, and then made a little movement and fled immediately.
"It's those two people! Pursue! One of the merfolk guards said loudly.
Immediately after them, they followed Qin Hao and Squeak, but Qin Hao's speed was extremely fast, and the two guards couldn't catch up at all for a while.
Ten minutes later, all four were on the beach.
The guard armor looked at Qin Hao and the two of them and sneered, in this kind of place, they were sure to win.
"Qin Hao, you can't escape, say! Where is Princess Alain? ”
Qin Hao ignored him, and immediately parted after making eye contact with Squeak.
Seeing that the two of them were stubborn, the guard armor said, "Separate chase!" ”
Next, Guard A went to chase Qin Hao, and Guard B went to chase Squeak. This happened to fall for Squeak's scheme.
Seeing that Squeak suddenly stopped running, Guard B said coldly: "Run, why don't you run!" ”
Squeaky laughed, "Why should I run?" You think too highly of yourself, don't you? ”
"Underwhelming!" Guard B suddenly strikes, and although his attack seems ferocious, it doesn't really kill Squeak.
However, Squeak is not a good man and a woman, and when she saw that Guard B was so arrogant, she immediately smiled secretly, and then casually released a red smoke.
Before Guard B could react, he suddenly found that he was exerting all his strength, and then he felt dizzy, and he fell to the ground after a while.
On the other side, Qin Hao was still running away, but the guard armor slowly caught up with him.
Qin Hao saw that he couldn't escape, so he turned his head to fight against him.
"I can't help myself!" The guard armor took out a big knife and slashed at Qin Hao.
