Looking at the powders that Lin Tao collected in basin after basin, he couldn't believe that the powders were precious medicinal materials worth tens of millions just a moment ago.
Of course, after it turns into powder, it is still very valuable.
Huh! Du Ruiming took a long breath, his eyes full of disbelief. In half a night, he had squandered tens of millions of star coins, and in an unimaginable way.
Du Ruiming felt like his heart was about to jump out.
After finishing the work at hand, Du Ruiming walked over to Lin Tao.
"Lin Tao, is there anything else you can help with?" Du Ruiming's eyes lit up as he looked at Lin Tao who was performing the essence extraction.
Destroy! Destroy! To completely destroy the medicinal materials worth tens of millions of star coins is simply an art! Du Ruiming was excited all over, and the adrenaline had not completely disappeared. At this moment, his mind was still thinking about how to continue to destroy these valuable powders.
Soak it in water? Throw it into a river? Make tea and drink it?
…
In an instant, countless plans flashed through Du Ruiming's mind.
"Okay, you don't know how to extract essence, take a rest first."
Lin Tao's words were like a bucket of cold water, dousing Du Ruiming's fiery heart and instantly making him depressed: "Uh~Okay."
Lin Tao's extraction speed was not fast. After all, the extraction machine was very old-fashioned and Lin Tao's skills were relatively unfamiliar. It was because he only remembered knowledge from books. As for the actual operations, except for mecha driving, he was really just at the novice level.
After the Tianxing grass was turned into powder, its weight was much lighter, but it was still close to two kilograms. However, in Lin Tao's hands, the Tianxing grass powder was only extracted into less than half a bowl of extract.
Lin Tao did not prepare any supplies for the test tubes, so he could only temporarily use the pots and pans, bowls and dishes in the rental house.
It can be said that the medicinal materials were processed extremely crudely this time, so crude that it was unbearable to look at.
If Xin Ya were here and saw how Lin Tao treated those precious medicinal herbs, she would definitely regret not snatching them away on the spot and letting Lin Tao waste them.
Only a guy like Du Ruiming, who wanted to try something that would ruin his family, could barely accept it.
Since the previous owner of Lin Tao's body was an extremely frugal person and there were not many things in the rental house, Lin Tao could only selectively extract some of the medicinal materials.
Extraction completed.
The next step is to start the preparation.
At this time, Du Ruiming, who had calmed down, discovered that although Lin Tao was unfamiliar with the technique of preparing the medicine, his movements were extremely familiar, as if he had done it more than once.
However, only people who specialize in pharmaceutical research can master the work of preparing medicines.
When did Lin Tao secretly learn these unconventional techniques? Moreover, where did Lin Tao get the money to learn? Du Ruiming was puzzled.
I don't know how much time had passed, but I saw Lin Tao prepare a dark brown liquid medicine. Since it had not been completely extracted yet, there was still some residue in the liquid medicine, which floated up and down in the large bowl from time to time.
It must be said that Lin Tao's success in preparing ingredients using extracts of extremely poor purity depended on his extensive experience from later generations, otherwise he would not have been able to succeed.
The whole bowl of liquid medicine looked as disgusting as oil scooped out of a gutter.
"Is this the medicine you prepared?" Du Ruiming's eyes widened.
Seeing that Lin Tao was really going to drink the potion, he immediately screamed: "Lin Tao, do you really want to drink it?"
Du Ruiming swore to heaven that he would never drink this kind of medicine, even if it poured into a ditch or a river.
Lin Tao did not respond. He gulped down all the medicine in the bowl.
The taste is a bit unpleasant.
There was no way around it. Whether it was extraction or preparation, there was a lack of advanced equipment. Lin Tao adopted a more primitive method of preparing medicine. The medicine prepared by this method was almost like ditch water. If Lin Tao didn't know the effect of the medicine, he would not drink it.
This medicine is not a true gene-enhancing medicine. It is only used to eliminate hidden diseases in the body. Although it cannot completely eliminate them, it may be able to do so as long as it is combined with a real gene-enhancing medicine.
After drinking this potion, Lin Tao then prepared the enhanced 'gene potion' that only appeared in later generations.
In fact, after reading the information from later generations, Lin Tao once suspected that this kind of medicine should have been researched by Xinya long ago, but was deliberately hidden, which delayed its appearance by decades.
Moreover, people in later generations strengthened this potion by only making improvements to the original raw materials.
"Enhanced Gene Potion No. 7." After taking a glance at the remaining extract, Lin Tao began to prepare it for the second time.
Time flies.
The second dose of medicine, still in the bowl.
Seeing the freshly prepared medicine, Du Ruiming suppressed his nausea and turned his head away on the spot, unable to bear to look at it.
This bowl of medicine liquid is thick and dark in color, like black ink that is about to dry up.
"I will never drink this kind of medicine even if I am beaten to death." Du Ruiming cried in his heart, and swore to the sky again that even if this kind of medicine was poured into the trash can or the ditch, he would never drink even a sip! Holding the medicine, Lin Tao did not drink it immediately. He first calculated the condition of his body in his mind and roughly understood the amount of medicine needed. Then he took out another bowl and poured out most of the medicine: "Ruiming, no matter what happens next, you just need to stay where you are."
"Huh?" Du Ruiming was shocked. Lin Tao really intended to drink it.
Without waiting for Du Ruiming to speak, Lin Tao picked up the big bowl, swallowed the ink-black liquid into his mouth, and swallowed it into his stomach.
"This... he really drinks it." Du Ruiming was dumbfounded.
After Lin Tao swallowed the medicine, he immediately sat up cross-legged.
Soon, Lin Tao's whole body was covered with blood.
Thunder, crack!
The sound of a series of firecrackers exploding rang out from Lin Tao.
Under Du Ruiming's shocked gaze, cracks appeared on Lin Tao's skin all over his body, and then it burst open. The red muscles mixed with blood melted like liquid.
“This…this…” Du Ruiming almost collapsed at the sight of this: “Lin Tao, you…you…”
In just a moment, the blood flowing from Lin Tao's body soaked the ground, forming a blood-red color, like a blood ocean.
The blood contains the diseased cells that are the cause of Lin Tao's illness.
Du Ruiming was shocked by what he saw. Suddenly, he woke up and quickly took out his watch to make an emergency call for help. However, he changed his mind and remembered Lin Tao's previous instructions. He was stunned again.
At this moment, the melted muscles in Lin Tao's body suddenly gathered together, as if they had life, and began to move rhythmically.
After a short while, the squirming muscles took shape again, clinging tightly to Lin Tao's body, and regained its human form.
Du Ruiming only felt dry mouth and tongue.
After the muscles moved and squirmed, Lin Tao's face appeared again in the face in a short time.
However, this face was obviously more plump than before, like a malnourished person who became strong in the blink of an eye.
"This... how is it possible?" Du Ruiming stood there in shock, totally unable to believe what he was seeing.
After the muscles squirmed for a while, they began to calm down in a blink of an eye, and clumps of muscles appeared directly on Lin Tao's body.
These muscles have not yet grown skin, and it seems as if there are solid pieces of meat hanging all over Lin Tao's body.
After the muscles are shaped, a new layer of tender skin begins to grow on the surface.
In less than half an hour, Lin Tao had undergone tremendous changes.
The sickly and skinny man suddenly turned into a strong and muscular man with a strong body, as if he had received countless training.
Du Ruiming was stunned.
After his whole body had completely recovered, the 'strong' Lin Tao let out a long sigh.
During the process of strengthening his body, Lin Tao felt pain all over his body. If he had not suffered a lot in his later life, he might not have been able to hold on. After all, this body was too weak.
Snap!
At some point, Du Ruiming walked up to Lin Tao, stretched out his hand and "touched" Lin Tao's strong muscles, and his Adam's apple made an unconscious gurgling sound.
Lin Tao did not stop it. After all, this was too horrifying. Before the strengthening "genetic drugs" were thoroughly popularized in the Interstellar Federation, it was estimated that not many people would dare to believe what they saw.
Finally, Lin Tao couldn't stand Du Ruiming's "touching" anymore, so he moved away and glanced at Du Ruiming: "Ruiming, have you touched enough?"
Lin Tao felt numb and itchy all over as his newly grown muscles were touched again and again.
"This... this..." Du Ruiming hadn't recovered yet, his outstretched hand still in mid-air. He stared blankly at the muscles on Lin Tao's body and muttered with difficulty: "Lin Tao, are the muscles on your body foam, or..."
At this moment, Lin Tao looked like a bodybuilding star, with strong muscles all over his body. No wonder Du Ruiming was distracted, this was the body he had always dreamed of.
Lin Tao didn't say anything. He walked to the iron bed next to him, grabbed the iron bars of the bed as thick as his thumb with both hands, and exerted force suddenly.
Bang! The iron rod was broken on the spot, followed by a series of teeth-grinding squeaks, and the iron rod was gradually twisted into a 90-degree angle.
Looking at the iron rod as thick as a thumb, which was bent into a 90-degree right angle by Lin Tao, Du Ruiming's eyes widened and he couldn't even move his feet.
After Lin Tao let out a light breath, he exerted force with his arms again, and in the blink of an eye, the iron rod returned to its original shape.
Du Ruiming was stunned for a long while, and suddenly he shuddered, his eyes suddenly lit up, and then he turned his head and looked at the bowl of remaining black liquid.
What are you dumping into the trash can, what are you dumping into the river, what are you dumping into the ditch!
Sorry, he was just bragging before.
As long as he drinks that bowl of medicine, he will be able to have a model figure like Lin Tao. Du Ruiming almost pounced on him.
"Ruiming, don't drink yet." Seeing this, Lin Tao hurriedly stopped him.
"But..." Du Ruiming held the medicine against his chest, fearing that it would fall to the ground and be wasted.
"Given the amount of muscle in your body, this amount of medicine won't work," Lin Tao explained.
This is the latest type of strengthening potion in later generations. The exact dosage has not yet been worked out, so it can only be temporarily matched according to personal circumstances. With Du Ruiming's physique, at least double the amount is needed to produce any changes, otherwise it is better not to drink it.
