Chapter 40.39: Medications (Seeking follow-up reading)

In Deep Blue's research, the pharmacy of this world is deeply influenced by alchemy. It can even be said that it is a vassal of alchemy.

In ancient times, empiricism was the main approach, and all sorts of random things were thrown together and boiled.

Whether the final product works, how effective it is, whether there will be any side effects, etc., only God knows.

In modern times, especially after the second great development of magic, potion science has also made great progress. Often a small bottle can quickly produce an effect.

As a result, I learned pharmacy very well, from separation, to purification, from filtration, to synthesis...

I learned nine out of ten tricks, but I didn't learn the most essential part. To be more precise, I couldn't learn the part involving magic.

In the end, it became a neither-good nor-bad situation. With the impact of potions and divine arts, even ordinary citizens did not trust it much.

At the beginning, Luo Yi was just planning to come up with an alternative prescription, but Shenlan was a particular person and didn't like to be fooled.

After such continuous pursuit of excellence, supplemented by comparison and optimization of the knowledge recorded in the book, and repeated attempts, I finally made a qualitative breakthrough recently!

There is a kind of small blue grass growing on the Dakar Plain. It doesn't look special, but whenever a monster is injured, it likes to nibble on the leaves of this grass.

This is Peleus herb, which has a restorative effect on the body, stimulates cell regeneration and accelerates wound healing.

However, this herb itself is somewhat toxic, and if you are not strong enough, you may be poisoned to death.

No matter how strong Luo Yi's physique was, he didn't dare to compare himself with the Warcraft, so he looked for another detoxifying herb - Siren Grass.

This is a kind of aquatic grass that grows in the sea. It can neutralize the toxicity of Peleus grass, but Siren grass can cause heat poison, so it needs to be paired with "ghost moss" that grows in dark areas.

In this way, the three ingredients are combined and the dosage is controlled to form a prescription.

To be honest, there was some luck involved in coming up with this recipe.

The medicine that was finally extracted was black and had a fishy smell.

After it enters the mouth, it is as sticky as paste. If you swallow it with difficulty, you will feel a burning sensation from your throat to your stomach.

As for the effect?

No effect!!!

Luo Yi had Deep Blue with him to monitor the situation in real time, and he discovered that the medicine could not be dissolved by gastric juice at all, let alone absorbed.

Therefore, it will not be effective if eaten directly, but it is still possible to melt it at high temperature and then absorb it through the pores of the skin.

So, today we had this medicinal bath!

An hour later, the water in the bathtub had completely cooled down. Roy stepped out and felt full of energy, ready for another round of high-intensity training.

The effect is good, unexpectedly!

More importantly, in the test of Deep Blue, it is found that it is not incompatible with red medicine, blue medicine and fighting spirit liquid, and can be used together.

This result naturally satisfied Luo Yi, and he couldn't be dissatisfied. The main reason was that besides the effect, the cost was quite cheap.

One potion can make ten such medicinal bath recipes, which requires about 150 copper nars.

If you buy in bulk, you can even lower the price further.

Of course, there are disadvantages.

The first is that the bathtub cannot be heated continuously, the water cools down quickly, and the medicinal bath is not effective.

The second is that after taking a medicinal bath, there is a strange smell on the body that lasts for a long time.

Luo Yi spent half an hour washing and spraying a lot of perfume to barely cover it up.

Of course, these are not things that cannot be improved. Shenlan has already established a research project, and the next step is to eliminate the odor.

Also, based on Loy's physical condition, the dosage of the medicine is constantly adjusted.

At this point, Luo Yi’s first medicine prescription was freshly prepared. After much thought, Luo Yi gave it a very distinctive name - Warming Yang and Strengthening Body Soup Recipe.

This was the style of the previous life, but Keluoyi didn't care.

It is worth mentioning that in addition to the optimization project of the Wen Yang Jianti Decoction recipe, Luo Yi also finalized the research direction of the next medicine.

It is not a substitute for the red and blue potions. He is not short of money at this stage and does not care about the expenses.

He chose "Mine Grass" as the core and studied a sedative drug that can remove emotions.

Minnie grass is a herb that grows in the forest. It is said that it can only grow in large quantities in places where shadow dragons are active. It is also one of the very rare species.

Among the effects of Deep Blue Record, it has a calming effect on the mind. Chewing it in large quantities will make you extremely calm, even indifferent, and can maintain a stable state of mind.

Shenlan made a suggestion to prepare a potion with the Minnie grass as the core, which could soothe the mood and eliminate distracting thoughts.

After one semester of study, Roy has gained a good understanding of basic meditation. It’s not quite comprehension, but he is extremely familiar with each step.

He even memorized the meditation runes that needed to be outlined during meditation.

However, there were too many distracting thoughts and he was restless. He couldn't calm down at all and couldn't even enter a meditative state.

Shenlan's advice was that since all efforts had yielded no results, he might as well use potions as an aid.

Luo Yi had been practicing basic meditation for a long time, so he agreed without hesitation. The next step was to work hard in this direction.

…

The next day was December 27, 310 in the New Divine Calendar.

On this day, Luo Yi went to the Xiangsheli Magic Textile Factory again. As a major shareholder, he needed to let the factory workers recognize him and give them a bonus.

This was Maruna Márquez's proposal.

In the past year, Xiangsheli Magic Energy Textile Factory has gone through many ups and downs and has been on the verge of bankruptcy several times.

These workers are able to stick with us and work hard to keep the factory running even when their wages are in arrears. That is definitely true love.

So, Maruna hopes to take out some money and give everyone a substantial bonus.

If Luo Yi disagrees, it can be deducted from his personal dividends and paid out in the name of the factory.

Luo Yi didn't ask him to pay. If it was a matter of buying people's hearts, of course he had to do it himself.

Moreover, Luo Yi increased the bonus by another 10% and distributed a lot of rice, flour, grain and oil, which he personally handed over to the workers.

The response was naturally very good. A group of workers almost jumped up, and many of them rushed up to kiss Roy's boots.

Of course, Roy did not forget to point out the traitor to Maruna and let him deal with it himself.

Actually, there is nothing to hesitate about. Traitors must die!

It was also here that Roy received an invitation from Maruna Marquez.

…

The next day, December 28, 310 of the New Divine Calendar,

That evening, Roy took Oliveira and Hoover to attend the family dinner prepared by Maruna.

The banquet was grand, with plenty of food prepared and quite rich, and a specially invited band played cheerful music.

The people involved were Maruna's family, his wife, and two children, a boy and a girl, aged eight or nine.

As for Roy, he only brought Oliveira and Butler Hoover.

In Maruna's words, this banquet was to express his gratitude to Roy.

If Luo Yi had not taken action, the Xiangsheli Magic Energy Textile Factory would have gone bankrupt by now, and he would have become a rat crossing the street that everyone would want to kill.

The workers have not received their wages and have worked for half a year in vain. I am afraid they can’t even afford to eat.

From this perspective, he really had to be grateful to Luo Yi.

…

December 29, 310 of the New Divine Calendar, it's a new day.

On this day, Roy was still not idle. He was taken to Provence Manor by Butler Hoover.

There were more than a hundred people gathered here, including farmers, shop apprentices, guards, and shop managers!

These talents are an extension of the Raymond family's reach and a reflection of the aristocracy's strength.

No matter what, Roy was the manager of Auckland City appointed by Earl Raymond. Even if he was just an illegitimate child, he was the immediate superior of these people.

So, you still have to meet, and then you still have to pay bonuses and daily necessities.

The Magic Energy Textile Factory in Xiangsheli has already distributed it, so naturally we have to do the same here, and we have to give more.

Of course, the title is different, it is a gift from the nobility!

In this way, another busy half day passed, and Luo Yi just felt very tired these days.

Therefore, he turned down the aristocratic banquets on the 30th and 31st without hesitation.

As a representative of the Raymond family, he was naturally qualified to participate. There were also many nobles and businessmen who, seeing that he had invested, wanted to cheat him out of his money.

But Luo Yi really didn't want to get involved. He hadn't practiced seriously for several days and felt that he was about to fall.

So, he simply refused and then pushed Butler Hoover out.

This was nothing to Butler Hoover, as he was the one who handled the matter in previous years.

Thus, two days passed quickly, until after a good night's sleep, when I woke up again, it was already January 1, 311 in the New Divine Calendar.

Grace Day is coming!

I always feel that my ability to write books has gotten worse!
