The tension in Weiwei's heart relaxed in the gentle glow of the setting sun.
The afterglow of the setting sun cast through the window frame was also very soft.
Looking at the large pill she had refined, which was two sizes larger than the usual pills, she didn't seem so bad after all.
"I think there's still room for improvement in Weiwei's pill-making skills. Weiwei should pay attention to her fire control. There are two reasons why the pills might not be produced quickly enough: it could be that her fire control is inadequate, or it could be that our techniques for cultivating fire spirit energy are not refined enough."
Zhu Yi was a little worried that if she said that, Weiwei might think she was showing off.
After all, they are all the same age, and the age difference between them is not significant. Zhu Yi doesn't want her friends to feel that there is a "big gap" between them.
"Okay, I've got it!" Weiwei also took out a small notebook.
Zhu Yi stared at the identical little notebook, slightly taken aback. Sure enough, people influence each other. In a moment of impulse, she blurted out, "Weiwei, we need to learn to record and reflect on our work when we're refining pills!"
I also reviewed Weiwei's alchemy process with her and helped her find three or five minor problems.
After a flurry of activity, Zhu Yi took out a small grill and set up a barbecue grill under the east window of the small side room of the alchemy room.
Vivi asked, "Won't there be a lot of smoke from barbecuing indoors?"
"No, we're not here to eat," Zhu Yi whispered in Weiwei's ear. "Let's get ready and catch the bugs!"
Zhu Yi hadn't fed Xue Shan for five days, and thought the Heart-Eating Poisonous Insects should be starving enough to be caught.
Little Peach Blossom followed behind Zhu Yi with a pained expression: "Boss, can I not do it...? My peach blossoms are all shriveled up from being scared!"
Zhu Yi smiled and said, "Nonsense, were you scared? Autumn is here, you're not a pine or cypress that can stay green all year round."
She casually took out some half-frozen Lingchou beef from the jade food box, then took out a few chicken wings brushed with honey, and called Weiwei to help her prepare.
The subtle aroma of the barbecue briefly dispelled the medicinal smell in the small room.
Little Peach Blossom watched Zhu Yi eat with great relish, smacking her lips in amazement.
Two blue-feathered golden-clawed eagle chicks emerged from the breeding pouch and surrounded Weiwei, begging for food.
Xue Shan's face turned pale and then flushed, and the path of a small black insect could be clearly seen on her fair skin.
After eating two skewers of grilled beef, Zhu Yi put down her chopsticks and sat down next to Xue Shan. She was highly focused. She and Xiao Taohua each took a pair of tweezers and quickly and accurately pinched along the surface of Xue Shan's skin.
"Ugh..." Xue Shan let out a soft groan while she was asleep, clearly in pain from being squeezed.
Several bluish marks appeared on Xue Shan's smooth, creamy skin. Because Zhu Yi and Xiao Taohua had applied different amounts of pressure, several deep red bruises also appeared on Xue Shan's body.
The two little eagles, having eaten and drunk their fill, thought Zhu Yi was incredibly stupid. Why didn't he use such two clever spirit beasts instead of keeping to himself?
"Idiot!" Ying Da said arrogantly as he slowly walked to Zhu Yi's side. "Hey, woman, take off her undergarment again."
With its wings flapping, the eagle strides with an air of indifference, as if it doesn't recognize its own kind.
"Children should be polite!" Zhu Yi rolled her eyes at the eagle cub, which was about half the size of a hen, and was a little annoyed. This little thing was acting like a domineering CEO.
"Hmph, I'm only doing this because you're too stupid. If you keep doing it like this, you might not even be able to get this bug out when she's covered in blood!"
Weiwei felt sorry for Xue Shan. Although she had prepared ointment to reduce the bruises, she was still very unhappy because of the discomfort she felt.
"Junior Sister, let's hear what Little Eagle has to say."
"Hmph! I'm Eagle Boss! Not Little Eagle!"
Is there a difference? It still looks just as weak and gluttonous, doesn't it? Zhu Yi thought to herself, then put on a professional fake smile: "My dear Eagle, what do you suggest?"
"Who's cute! I'm the mighty one!"
"Okay! What do you suggest? You're very impressive!" Zhu Yi seemed to understand perfectly.
"Idiot, I already told you, take off that woman's undergarments! Take off her undergarments!"
Honestly, it's fortunate that the one who said that was a young eagle that hadn't grown up yet; otherwise, if the other party had been a rich young master, let's see if Zhu Yi would have fought back.
This little eagle with its black feathers that look like a crow... Sigh, what a dilemma.
Zhu Yi waved her hand and pulled off her snow-white inner robe, revealing a light blue bodice simply embroidered with small orchids. Hehe, saving lives is the priority; hesitation is only a matter of a moment.
Then she suddenly realized that Xue Shan was so... voluptuous.
I unconsciously glanced at my small chest again. Sigh, so flat-chested. I need to overcome body image anxiety by comforting myself!
The Heart-Eating Poisonous Insect was very intelligent. It knew that Zhu Yi was using small tweezers to pinch it. After several near-crushing encounters, the spot where it had burrowed quietly sank a little.
"Woman, I want to eat chicken wings!" Ying Er followed suit, making the CEO's demand for food.
A pair of fragrant roasted chicken wings were brought over, and Ying Er started eating them on the small table next to Xue Shan's bed.
The enticing aroma wafted in again, and after a long while, the venomous insects, which hadn't had a proper meal in days, began to stir again.
The eagle hid itself in a corner where the insects couldn't see it.
Zhu Yi, Weiwei, and Xiao Taohua unconsciously lowered their profile.
"Tsk tsk! We eagles all love to eat snakes. Could you grill me a snake?"
