The little farce outside had come to an end, but Leng Qingning knew that this was just the beginning. If she couldn't recover quickly and refine the potion, these people would definitely attack her again.
"Strange, how did you get injured? Why can't the herbs stop your bleeding?"
Mo Shangyan has a strong interest in pharmacology. Her wound has not healed in the past two days, which has aroused his strong curiosity.
This person has been looking through various books for the past two days.
Leng Qingning looked at the outline of the wound. There were a few red threads on it. These red threads looked very similar to the filaments of the blood lotus. Looking at Mo Shangyan's expression, he didn't seem to notice these strange red filaments.
It seemed that this part of her arm had been injured not only in the tunnel, but also in several other places on her body when she fought against the blood-red skeleton that day.
It seems that the only way for her wound to truly heal is to find a way to remove these red filaments.
In the past two days, He Yong and Zhong Qiang came to see her from time to time, and their subordinates often looked at her with malicious eyes, as if they were eager for her lies to be exposed.
Mo Shangyan liked quietness to begin with, and these people bothered him every day, making him very irritable. What's more, the injuries on this woman's body were very strange, and after using so many medicines, only a little bit of it healed.
"If your injury doesn't heal any more, you'll be taken away by those perverts. I advise you to not hide your weakness and still have some say here. Otherwise, if you fall into their hands, your fate will be miserable."
Leng Qingning's injury has improved a lot compared to the previous few days. Her guess turned out to be correct. She took the opportunity to secretly use up the elixir in the past two days. She finally pulled out the two red threads and the wound has healed a little.
There are nearly eight filaments left, and only by pulling out these filaments can she regain her previous strength.
"I'm not hiding my weakness. This injury was probably caused by being hit before I fell unconscious. I don't know what hurt me. When I woke up, I found myself floating on the sea." She could barely raise her arms now. She had secretly stuffed those pills into Mo Shangyan's mouth while he was asleep.
Mo Shangyan looked at her scrutinizingly, and after a moment of silence, he said, "I don't care whether what you said is true or false. You only have three months to recuperate. Your fate will be decided in three days. You'd better take care of yourself." After that, he left the room.
Leng Qingning pulled up her sleeves and took a look. In fact, she could barely get out of bed and mix some ordinary medicines, but she didn't want to do that.
These three days should be enough for her to pull out a red thread and recover some of her strength. The faster her strength recovers, the more secure she will feel.
Three days passed in a flash, and outside the house where she was recuperating, a group of pirates led by Zhong Qiang and He Yong were actually guarding here.
They all looked at the door in front of them with ill intentions, and foul language came out of their mouths from time to time.
"Hehe, the three days are up. I want to see what reasons the Second in Command has for protecting this little bitch?"
"No more talking, my good brother can't wait any longer,"
"Why hasn't she come out yet? Could it be that she knows she can't do it, so she hides in the house and dares not come out?"
Zhong Qiang stood guard at the closed door with an unhappy look on his face, and said to the servant beside him, "Hurry up and hurry her up! If she doesn't come out soon, we'll all go in!"
"Brother, third brother, why are you in such a hurry? There are so many beauties on the boat, isn't it enough for you to entertain yourself? Aren't we coming out now?" Mo Shangyan was holding a porcelain ticket in his hand, and the stunning girl behind him followed his steps and walked out timidly.
This girl was so stunningly beautiful, especially with a hint of coldness about her that was barely noticeable, and a hint of timidity in her expression, which made them want to drag her into the quagmire.
"Second brother, you are wrong. We don't want to rush you. You also know that resources are limited. We brothers fight on swords every day and it takes a lot of effort to obtain various resources. Naturally, we have to be cautious."
As he spoke, Zhong Qiang narrowed his eyes and looked at Leng Qingning and said, "Miss Chen, your injuries are almost healed, right? Can you let me see your alchemy skills?"
Zhong Qiang looks like a rough man who only knows how to use brute force, but in fact, he is a meticulous person. Leng Qingning has seen his behavior in the past few days and knows that he is quite scheming.
"Of course I can." Leng Qingning was now pretending to be a weak woman, using the pseudonym Chen Xin. Naturally, she had to pretend to be afraid and hide behind Mo Shangyan.
So, they followed Mo Shangyan into his herbal medicine room on the ship. Various herbs had already been prepared in it, and there were many neatly arranged clean porcelain bottles next to them to store the refined medicinal liquids.
Alchemy and elixirs are similar, but alchemy is more complicated than alchemy. Leng Qingning can already refine mid-grade elixirs, and refining these ordinary liquid medicines is even more handy.
Seeing her skillful techniques and neat and efficient movements, the pirates naturally believed that she really knew how to make medicine.
"What should we do, Third In Command? If this girl really knows how to make medicine, then we can't touch her, right?" Several pirates and He Yong whispered to each other, their eyes scanning her from time to time.
Leng Qingning pretended not to notice these gazes and carefully put the refined medicine into a white porcelain bottle.
"Boss, the healing liquid has been prepared."
Whoever took the porcelain bottle first was immediately inhaled into his nose by a fragrant aroma. From the smell, he knew that the medicine was of good quality.
Zhong Qiang's eyes suddenly became serious when he looked at Leng Qingning. This woman could actually refine a medicinal liquid of excellent quality. For them, the brothers, this was undoubtedly great news.
This time, he must teach these brothers a lesson, especially that lecher He Yong, who can't walk when he sees a beautiful woman. He must not let them ruin his good deeds.
He immediately announced with a look of great joy, "I didn't expect Miss Chen's alchemy skills to be so excellent. Brothers, listen up! From now on, you are our honored guest on board. Anyone who dares to disrespect you is disrespecting me, the head honcho."
As soon as these words were spoken, all the brothers cheered loudly, except He Yong and his group, who hung their heads listlessly like defeated roosters.
Couldn't he see that what his elder brother said was actually a warning to people like them?
"Miss Chen, many of our brothers on board are injured and lying in their rooms in agony. Could you help us refine some healing potions?"
Leng Qingning had just gained an identity for herself, so naturally she had to perform well.
"Of course, Boss, I'm glad to help you all. I'll make some medicine for you brothers right away."
Zhong Qiang showed a satisfied look, this woman was quite sensible.
