I went through the cooling-off period on Friday, accepted the reality, and started making medicine.
Song Ci remained silent. She noticed a small alchemy furnace among the medicine-making tools. With an idea in mind, she opened the furnace and threw a piece of light brown animal heart into it.
Turning on the fire, Song Ci used the warm fire to bake the heart fragments of the "strange beast".
At the same time, Song Ci began to grind other medicinal herbs, patiently grinding them into fine powder.
Two hours passed quickly, and five or six candidates had already failed in their first attempt at refining the medicine. Soon, they also noticed the existence of the alchemy furnace and began to ponder its function.
Another half hour passed, and a strong, pure medicinal aroma emanated from where Song Ci was standing. Upon smelling this aroma, the invigilators' expressions shifted slightly, and they looked towards Song Ci.
"As expected of a student chosen by the old patriarch, he is truly extraordinary." Their conversation was so quiet that no one else could hear it.
Mo Fengying smelled the fragrance and was a little surprised. She paused what she was doing and turned back to look at Song Ci.
What did Song Dynasty porcelain do?
Mo Fengying ground the remaining herbs and then stared at the three animal hearts in a daze. Others might not know what these things were, but Mo Fengying, the young master of the Mo family, knew that these were not animal hearts at all, but the hearts of medicine people.
But Mo Fengying was taught from a young age that medicine men are medicines rather than people, so she didn't think there was anything wrong with using this thing to make medicine.
Mo Fengying first crushed one of the heart fragments, mixed it with other medicinal materials, threw them into the alchemy furnace, and then added a certain dose of honey, trying to make them into pills.
But an hour later, Mo Fengying failed.
She heard the sound of pills cracking in the alchemy furnace and quickly turned off the fire. Mo Fengying opened the lid and looked inside, and saw the exploding pills.
Mo Fengying frowned, puzzled, wondering which step had gone wrong?
Mo Fengying stopped and began to calm down and think about every step she took, trying to find out where the problem lay.
Meanwhile, the aroma of medicine in Song Ci's alchemy furnace grew stronger and stronger. When the aroma reached its peak, filling the entire pharmacy, Song Ci finally turned off the fire.
She waited for half a quarter of an hour until the high temperature in the alchemy furnace dropped, then she opened the lid and used an iron spoon to scoop out the medicine that had been tempered into red powder in the box and placed it on a white porcelain plate.
Song Ci put the other herbs into the plate according to her estimated amounts. Then she washed her hands, put on sterile gloves, and mixed all the herbs together with honey to make a pill the size of a baby's fist.
She opened the alchemy furnace again, carefully placed the pill in, and continued to roast it with fire.
In this way, another hour and a half passed, and the aroma of medicine spread from the location of Song Ci, which was very strong.
Mo Zhangkuang sniffed the air, still smiling, but said, "She's going to fail."
Almost at the same time as Mo Zhangkuang finished speaking, Song Ci heard the sound of something cracking.
Song Ci frowned and quickly turned off the fire. When she opened the lid, she found that the pill had become smaller and blood red, and the pill had broken into four pieces.
Which problem exactly went wrong?
Meanwhile, Mo Fengying also tried to bake the fragments of the "strange beast" in the alchemy furnace. However, she soon discovered that she had failed, as the pill shattered again.
Mo Fengying only had one last batch of medicinal herbs left, so she didn't dare to act rashly this time.
Song Ci, on the other hand, although she had failed once, still had two herbs left, giving her one more chance than Mo Fengying. Six hours had already passed since the exam, and everyone was so absorbed in the test that they had forgotten to eat or sleep.
Song Ci was staring at the light brown medicinal herbs.
How should I make this thing?
Song Ci stared at the jar of honey with a puzzled expression. Was the honey's purpose just to improve the taste of medicine? There was no need to prepare so much!
Song Ci thought about it and had a guess in his mind.
She once again threw a piece of light brown medicine into the alchemy furnace. During the process, she occasionally dripped some honey into the medicine. Song Ci saw that every time the honey came into contact with the medicine, it would turn a little redder.
Seeing this scene, Song Ci knew that his guess was most likely correct.
Use the sweetest honey to suppress the most resentful soul!
When Ancestor Mo was refining Fengchun Pills, he really put a lot of effort into it!
Two hours later, the medicinal fragrance from Song Ci's alchemy furnace spread to an area within a kilometer radius.
Many people smelled the fragrance and stopped what they were doing. Some said in admiration, "Is the old patriarch refining Fengchun Pills again?"
"This rich, pure medicinal aroma smells really good!"
Outside the examination room, everyone who smelled the medicinal fragrance thought that Mo Zhangkuang was refining medicine, because a rare medicine like Fengchun Pills was extremely difficult to refine.
In the entire Mo family, apart from the head of the family and the old head of the family, only the alchemy genius Mo Xiaokuang can make Fengchun Pills.
When Mo Zhangkuang first smelled the fragrance, he was smiling, but gradually, when he found that the fragrance of Fengchun Pills made of Song Dynasty porcelain was becoming stronger and stronger, his expression became a little serious.
This kid is truly a genius! Even the Mo tribe's pharmaceutical prodigy, Mo Xiaokuang, when he was young, couldn't match this kid's talent.
Talent is indeed a gift from God, and cannot be begged for.
Mo Zhangkuang couldn't sit still on the high platform anymore, so he walked down directly and came behind Song Ci, silently observing every step of Song Ci's medicine making.
