“I want access to learning spaces and equipped labs.”

Chen Yun entered the space and looked at the system. She planned to find loopholes in the system and use the laboratory to develop the pills she had purchased with her points. Using the smallest amount to achieve the greatest benefit, that was her idea.

"Okay, deduct one hundred points."

The system happily deducted points, naively optimistic. One reason was that it trusted the system, and the other was that it didn't quite believe that Shen Yun could develop the pill.

"Host, don't get your hopes up too much. Analyzing what the system has created isn't easy. I think you should just give up!"

"I won't give up. Everything has its solution. I believe I can figure it out."

Shen Yun's eyes were filled with confidence and self-belief. She had every confidence she needed. The accumulated knowledge she had gained from following Grandpa Wen and the system over the years was no less than that of Grandpa Wen. Shen Yun wasn't lacking in experience either, as the system's study room had plenty of facilities for treating patients and listing cases.

"Okay... then I'll see if you can succeed."

The system figure looked on proudly as Shen Yun busied himself in the lab, compiling various data and analyzing the pill's ingredients. With a modern lab equipped with futuristic experimental equipment, Shen Yun raced against time, wanting to avoid wasting a single second.

"No... there's another component that I can't analyze."

Scratching his hair, Shen Yun looked at the long list of values ​​in front of him. Among these values, he couldn't analyze a single component, which was the most important synthetic component.

"What on earth is going on?"

Shen Yun was frantic, watching the experiment come to a standstill. The formula for the Jieshu Pills was an ancient one, and while it only needed to be improved, the Qingliang Pills formula required in-depth research.

"Five-finger mandarin orange? Or money grass? Golden sand vine?"

What on earth was this? Chen Yun couldn't help but look again at the medicinal herbs and printed data in the laboratory. He sorted out all the values, data, and related information. He was filled with confusion. How should he get out of this? Misunderstandings arose.

"Time's up... the lab is about to be closed."

Five hours later, the lab was shut down on time. The system's face was filled with gloating. So what? It said it! It just can't figure it out. Humph... Do you really think the system is a pushover? If it were so easy to figure it out, how would the system earn points?

"So soon?"

"Yes, five hours."

The system showed Chen Yun a timeline, stating that it wouldn't do anything that would be shameful. It was a fixed timeframe, but the host could still redeem points.

"Okay! I'm out."

Chen Yun rubbed his head and eyes, which were already aching, and his face looked extremely heavy.

…

"Have you noticed that something's wrong with my sister lately?"

"You just realized it! Niuniu has been looking very serious lately. I don't know what happened to her."

Shen Lei and Shen Yu met secretly, feeling very puzzled. They couldn't figure out a woman's inner thoughts, and in fact, there was nothing wrong with their sister every day.

"Why……"

They all sighed, feeling that this was even harder than doing anything big.

"It seems like conscription will start soon. What do you think?"

Chen Lei nudged his brother beside him. What was his plan? Didn't he have any ideas? While university wasn't a possibility, they still had a good chance of getting drafted. However, they weren't sure how to approach Mai Dong; after all, he wasn't like them.

"Yes, of course." Being a soldier is the most glorious thing now, who doesn't have this idea?

"But..." Shen Yu suddenly didn't dare to think about the consequences if his parents knew that they wanted to join the army.

"Tell me, how can we convince Dad?"

"I don't know. If my sister acts as a lobbyist, maybe there's still some hope."

Chen Lei had no expectations for himself and his brother. They believed that if they told him they wanted to join the army, their father's whip and their mother's tears would really make them collapse. After all, his father's every action showed his attitude. A good son is made under the stick. Boys need to be beaten. Without beatings, they will not become talents.

"Well... I guess there's no hope for us again."

Sun Wukong couldn't escape from Tathagata's palm, and neither could they. Their sister had been very worried recently, and they didn't dare to ask her for help at this critical moment.

"What's going on lately? You look like you're lost."

Wen Maidong couldn't help but look at Chen Yun, worry written on his face. He couldn't understand why Chen Yun was so depressed recently. He was fine now. There was no trouble in the village, and he hadn't been to the city.

"Hey... I'm just thinking about a recipe problem and I can't figure it out."

"What recipe has stumped you?" Wen Maidong suddenly became interested, wondering what kind of recipe could stump Chen Yun.

Although the "Four Olds" movement is being carried out everywhere, and traditional Chinese medicine is being cracked down on, feudalism is being eradicated, life in the countryside remains peaceful. When people get sick, they still rely on traditional Chinese medicine, the local doctors. Not everyone has the money or the ability to go to the hospital, and not everyone is willing to go.

Therefore, the Wen family’s life in Xiashan Village was not affected much at all. Apart from not being able to go to the city, they were basically not bothered or disturbed.

"Cooling Pill."

"Cooling Pill?" Wen Maidong looked at Chen Yun in surprise. Is there such a pill? Is there such a recipe?

"Yes! I'm only one step away from the last one, and it's that last step that's been holding me up for half a month."

During this period, Chen Yun had spent a lot of time and effort researching the recipe, but it was always a little short of the mark and he could never figure it out. He didn't know when he would be able to figure it out, think it through, and come out of it.

"Then... have you asked Grandpa? I think he should be able to figure it out."

Wen Maidong has a mysterious confidence in his grandfather and believes that his grandfather can figure it out.

"Oh right... I forgot I could explore this with Master."

Shen Yun smacked her head and excitedly dragged Wen Maidong to find her master. The master had spent his entire life studying Chinese medicine and ancient remedies, and he believed he could help her broaden her horizons. Three cobblers are better than Zhuge Liang; only by helping each other could they identify and solve problems.

"The old man is at home, don't worry, just run slowly and don't fall."

Wen Maidong was so worried that he looked at Chen Yun with such pampering that he felt proud of his own child, who became more and more beautiful the more he looked at him.

"I know... hurry up and stop talking nonsense."

Chen Yun smiled and rolled her eyes. Didn’t she know?
