After washing the herbs, Ye Xin wiped his hands and started working.
She found a black lotus and took the broken bowl with only half of its body.
She freed one hand and placed the broken bowl under the lotus, then used both hands to squeeze the black lotus hard.
Under her rough and violent actions, Lotus unwillingly leaked a few drops of black juice.
When Ye Xin saw the black juice, her face lit up with joy. She continued to move her hands, increasing the strength to squeeze out a few more drops of juice.
When the black lotus could no longer produce any juice, she threw the corpse aside and pulled out a flower to continue kneading it.
By the time all the herbs on the table were cooked, the juice barely filled half a bowl.
Ye Xin looked at the tiny amount of juice and felt a headache. With her clumsy hands, she didn't know if this little thing would be successful.
She puffed out her cheeks and threatened the alchemy furnace as usual before starting to light it.
Yellow-red flames began to burn under the alchemy furnace, and Ye Xin poured all the colorful juice in the broken bowl into it.
The dry pot hit the water, and a large amount of steam instantly emerged. She controlled the size of the fire, closed the lid of the furnace, and let the medicine simmer for a while.
A few seconds later, she opened the lid and saw that the medicinal juice that originally covered the bottom of the stove was reduced by half due to the strong fire.
Ye Xin felt a little painful when she saw this. She had spent a long time trying to squeeze out the medicine juice, but now half of it was gone.
She extinguished some of the fire at the bottom of the stove, leaving only two flames burning.
This time Ye Xin waited for a longer time. Only when the sun began to set did she open the furnace again.
As soon as the furnace was opened, the aroma of medicine hit her face, and she was shocked by the smell.
Yes, yes, this is the taste of the elixir.
Ye Xin picked up the alchemy furnace and impatiently poured the contents into the broken bowl. She shook it for a long time before a dark, sticky substance fell into the bowl.
With a "clang", the alchemy furnace in her hand fell to the ground.
This, this, this...
Ye Xin widened her eyes in disbelief. Who could have told her that this pitch-black thing could be a divine elixir? Could it be that she hasn't woken up yet?
After she repeatedly confirmed that there was no residue in the stove, she had to accept the fact. She sat in front of the table, propping up her chin and looking at the strangely shaped paste.
"Is this a success or failure? It smells just like a pill, but why is the shape so unimpressive?" She lifted the furnace and said calmly, "When you were refining it, why didn't you just roll it into a ball?"
The unlucky alchemy furnace with a missing corner: "......"
Your Majesty, I can only give you a paste, which is good. Who can make an elixir like you? If I hadn't kept my composure, your little bit of medicine would have been evaporated by the fire.
Ye Xin secretly hated this broken alchemy furnace for being so useless. He threw it on the table, picked up the black paste and poured it on the peculiarly shaped stone.
The stone was the size of her two palms, just enough to spread the paste completely.
Ye Xin waited for a while, until most of the heat in the paste dissipated, and then kneaded it using the same method as kneading dough.
When she was kneading it to her heart's content, Ye Xin scraped off some stone powder and sprinkled it in.
This stone was the one she picked up from the sea. She originally wanted to keep it as a souvenir, but she took a bite of it later. The salty taste in her mouth made her give up the idea of ​​collecting it.
She had almost forgotten about this thing, but the salt in her space happened to be gone, so she had no choice but to take it out.
I don't know what kind of weirdo is the one who passed down this recipe. He actually added salt in the last step. Are you an alchemist who was born with culinary skills?
Dan Fang raised his hands in disgrace, "Your Majesty, you've misunderstood our master. When he first began his alchemy career, he accidentally made too many enemies. People who knew the value of the formulas would often snatch them away. He was forced to come up with this plan."
"When he wrote down the recipe, he would add some insignificant things so that others wouldn't think it was effective. Later, when the owner became more powerful, he gradually changed this habit. But this recipe is the only one that was omitted, so this is just a coincidence!"
Ye... messed around a bit... Xinke didn't understand the weirdness of the pill recipe at all. She was still working hard to knead the paste into strips.
When the paste was as long as her middle finger, she pinched it into small balls.
She found a white jade bottle, picked up the small ball and put it in. At this point, Ye Xin's alchemy was completely completed.
She wiped the sweat from her forehead and collapsed to the ground, exhausted. It was finally over. This alchemy was simply not a job for humans.
Ye Xin closed her eyes and relaxed for a while before staggering to pick up the medicine bottle and walk out.
As soon as she opened the door, she woke up the people guarding outside.
Ye Xin looked at the sky and realized that it was already late at night.
She once again lamented the difficulty of alchemy. She had only taken the last step, but several hours had already passed outside.
Zixun and a group of people gathered around nervously, no one spoke, waiting for Ye Xin to speak.
Ye Xin smiled faintly and raised the porcelain bottle in her hand to everyone, "I succeeded."
Zixun covered his face, his legs went weak and he fell to the ground.
Success, Xiaobao succeeded...
Woo woo woo...
He buried his face in his hands and cried softly. His grandfather was saved. Xiaobao really succeeded.
Ye Xin pulled Zi Xun up and limped out of Zi Shao's house.
Qin Yue saw it and hurriedly walked to Ye Xin's side, "Xiaobao, what's wrong with your leg? Did something go wrong while refining the pill?"
Ye Xin pressed one of her thighs and waved her hand nonchalantly, "It's okay, it's just a small problem, it will be fine in a while." Her legs were just numb from sitting for a few hours, but could she tell anyone about this?
"Really? Let me see." Qin Yue didn't believe it, so she squatted down and pinched Ye Xin's legs.
She touched Ye Xin's thigh all the way down to her calf, and only stood up with relief when she saw that he looked normal.
"Aunt, I told you it's okay. Let's go in! Grandma must be waiting anxiously."
Ye Xin walked around Qin Yue, pushed open the door on the stone steps, and strode in. "Grandma, I succeeded."
Qin Yue smiled helplessly and nodded to the group of people before they followed her in.
Fang Wenwen woke up from her trance, and her expression collapsed upon hearing the news. She touched Ye Xin's head and said with a choked voice, "Good boy, you've worked so hard during this period."
A faint smile appeared on Ye Xin's lips. She handed the bottle to Fang Wenwen, "Grandma, this is the antidote."
Fang Wenwen took the palm-sized jade bottle and sat down beside Zi Shao with tears in her eyes. She uncorked the bottle and poured out a black pill.
When Zi Qi saw the meatball, he was so shocked that his eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
Could this black thing be a god-level elixir?
