Upon hearing Liu Fei's question, Liu Feng gently patted Liu Fei's head and said softly, "Of course, this is a pill I specially made for you."
"Feng'er, what exactly is the purpose of this Qi-replenishing pill? We're both healthy and can we take it?"
Liu Changqing and He Qunfang asked with concern.
"Dad, Mom, this pill has many benefits. It can nourish your vital energy, replenish your marrow and essence, strengthen your body and bones, and improve your complexion and prolong your life!"
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it a miraculous elixir.
Fearing they wouldn't understand, Liu Feng explained further, "If you take this pill, Dad's body will become stronger; Mom's skin will become fair and wrinkle-free; Eldest Sister will grow more and more beautiful; and the youngest will become smarter..."
The whole family was stunned when they heard what Liu Feng said.
Their eyes widened in disbelief. This tiny pill possessed such miraculous effects; it was practically a legendary elixir!
Liu Changqing asked worriedly, "Won't there be any side effects from taking such a miraculous pill?"
As the saying goes, "Every medicine has its side effects!"
To an ordinary person, these words would be a warning about the potential risks of the drug. But Liu Feng was full of confidence and said to Liu Changqing, "Dad, don't worry, I've taken it all. This Qi-replenishing pill has no side effects..."
Before he could finish speaking, Liu Yue interrupted him, saying, "Dad, Mom, I know! Look at my brother's skin, it's so fair and tender, and he's even prettier than me, a girl! We're both your own children, how come there's such a big difference?"
She said it half-jokingly and half-seriously, which made the whole family laugh.
He Qunfang pretended to be angry and tapped Liu Yue's head: "What nonsense are you spouting? If you keep talking like this, your second brother won't even be your mother's son!"
In fact, Liu Feng and Liu Yue look about 70% alike. If outsiders saw them standing together, they might mistake them for twins.
But at this moment, everyone's attention was focused on the small jade bottle on the table, as if reminded by Liu Yue's words and they felt that what she said made a lot of sense.
"Mom, you haven't even let me finish speaking yet."
Liu Yue winked playfully and continued, "What I mean is, is it because my little brother's skin is so fair and tender, better than ours, that he ate this Qi-replenishing pill?"
Everyone turned their attention back to the small jade bottle on the table, and they all felt that Liu Yue's words made a lot of sense.
After all, Liu Feng's skin was fair and delicate, unlike that of ordinary people, which might really be related to this Yuan-replenishing pill.
Liu Feng did not reveal the truth. He had actually only taken one Qi-replenishing pill, and that was to analyze whether the pill's medicinal properties met the required standards.
As for his appearance, that was merely a side effect of his cultivation of the Innate Skill, and had nothing to do with the Replenishing Essence Pill.
He smiled and said to his family, "Mom, Dad, don't worry. I personally tested this Replenishing Essence Pill, and it has no side effects. You can take it with peace of mind."
Then, Liu Feng continued, “The Buyuan Dan has a variety of medicinal effects. First of all, it has four major advantages: it is not overly nourishing, not greasy, not cold, and not irritating. This means that while it nourishes the body, it will not cause physical discomfort or other side effects.”
Then, he instructed Liu Yue to pour a bowl of hot water for his parents, and then he poured out four Qi-replenishing pills from the jade bottle and placed them in each person's palm.
The pills have a smooth, round appearance and emit a faint, pleasant medicinal fragrance.
"Dad, Mom, you can take it now," Liu Feng reminded them.
He Qunfang was the first to take the Replenishing Essence Pill.
She had heard Liu Feng say that this medicine could beautify and nourish the skin, making it white, tender, and smooth, and she couldn't suppress the urge to try it.
At this moment, she carefully placed the pill into her mouth, feeling it melt instantly upon entering her mouth, carrying a slightly bitter and sweet taste. Then, this taste transformed into a warm current, slowly flowing into her throat and spreading throughout her body.
The meridians within the body seemed to be gently stirred by this force, flowing freely, as if the body's Qi and blood had been completely harmonized in that instant.
After that faint bittersweet taste, it is replaced by an indescribable feeling of comfort.
"Ah, this medicine is amazing! I feel warmer all over!" He Qunfang said with delight.
Afterwards, Liu Changqing, Liu Yue, and Liu Fei also took the Replenishing Yuan Pill one by one, and they all showed expressions of amazement.
"Mom, there are 36 Qi-replenishing pills in this jade bottle. I'm entrusting them to you for safekeeping," Liu Feng said, handing the small jade bottle to He Qunfang.
"How often should we take one of these Replenishing Essence Pills?" He Qunfang asked.
Just as Liu Feng was about to answer, he continued, "To maximize the effects of the pills, you and Dad should take two pills a month, and your eldest sister and youngest sister should take one pill a month. That's all! There are no other restrictions, and it's okay to take one or two more pills."
"Oh, I see, I understand!" He Qunfang nodded happily.
At this moment, Liu Changqing also put down his teacup, looked at Liu Feng with deep eyes, and slowly said, "Feng'er, you have really grown up. Thank you for bringing such a treasure to the family. Your mother and I will cherish this Replenishing Yuan Pill and take it as you instructed."
Hearing his father's affirmation, Liu Feng felt gratified.
He followed his master in his spiritual practice from a young age, and after many hardships, he was finally able to use what he had learned to bring some substantial help to his family, which was his greatest satisfaction.
"Alright, it's getting late, everyone should get some rest," He Qunfang said, starting to clear the table of dishes.
Liu Yue and Liu Fei also helped wipe the table clean, and then went back to their rooms to rest.
The next day, the sky was overcast with thick clouds, as if a winter snowfall could fall at any moment.
As always, Liu Feng got up early and went to the courtyard to practice the Five Animal Frolics.
Today, Liu Yue arrived earlier than Liu Fei.
Last night, she took a Qi-nourishing pill with excitement and curiosity.
The first thing she does when she wakes up in the morning is to run to the mirror and carefully examine her face.
She looked closely and found that her face was rosy and her skin seemed to be a little fairer, which made Liu Yue feel great.
So, she happily went out to collect manure, praising Liu Feng's elixir in her heart.
Not long after, Liu Yue, who had just returned from collecting manure, saw Liu Feng still practicing the Five Animal Frolics in the yard, and excitedly joined in.
They felt that Liu Feng was like a mystery; he could detoxify, cure frostbite, catch pheasants, concoct medicine, and was also rich.
Liu Fei woke up feeling full of energy.
He quickly got dressed, went out of the room, and saw that his older sister and second brother had already started practicing the Five Animal Frolics in the yard, so he joined them.
Although their movements were still a bit clumsy, everyone was learning very seriously.
Liu Feng would stop every now and then to patiently instruct them: "Pay attention to your breathing, and coordinate it with your movements..."
As he spoke, he guided them step by step on how to adjust their breathing and how to exert force.
Under his tutelage, Liu Fei and his sister gradually mastered several simple movements of the Five Animal Frolics.
