Chapter 416 Ying Yaoshi Comes to Ask for Someone
The reason why Ning Xuan was able to take out the Soul-Clearing Pill was because she had learned about the old dean's situation in advance. Since she was going to give a gift, of course she had to give something that the other person needed.
The Soul-Clearing Pill is one of the more difficult high-level pills to refine, and it is a great test of the alchemist's skills.
However, the raw materials for refining this kind of medicine are relatively easy to obtain. Even if there are a few precious herbs among them, they are relatively common, and the age requirement of the herbs is not high. After Ning Xuan collected all the herbs, she tried to refine several batches of pills, and finally successfully refined two bottles of Qinghun Pills.
Yu Mingche once spent a large sum of money to purchase the Soul-Clearing Pill from the old dean. Unfortunately, the Soul-Clearing Pill recipe contained many herbs with conflicting medicinal properties, making it too difficult to refine. Alchemists who could refine the Soul-Clearing Pill had to be at the Grandmaster level, and there were too few Grandmaster-level alchemists. Most of them were too arrogant and unwilling to spend the effort to refine this pill with a low return rate.
Yu Mingche put the cap back on the bottle and suddenly threw himself into Ning Xuan's arms. He buried his head in the crook of her neck and choked with sobs as he thanked her, "Xuanxuan, thank you."
"Why be so polite to me? As long as you are happy, that's all that matters." Ning Xuan felt something wet on her neck, patted Yu Mingche's back, and hugged him to comfort him.
Ning Xuan knew that Yu Mingche had been emotionally unstable recently. No matter what the reason was, his condition was definitely not good for the development of the fetus. Ning Xuan felt it necessary to care about his physical and mental health.
Fortunately, it seems that Yu Mingche is satisfied with the gift given to the old dean today.
Of course, Ning Xuan also got some inspiration from the old dean. Since such a problem would occur to an elderly man, he was certainly not the only one with this problem. The difficulty of refining the Soul-Clearing Pill was relative. It was said that it was not difficult for those who knew how to do it, and it was difficult for those who did not. Since Ning Xuan was able to successfully refine this kind of pill, she felt that she could occasionally refine some and put them up for auction. After all, an ordinary person like the old dean might have a more capable younger generation like Yu Mingche behind him who was willing to ask for the medicine at any price.
The old dean was so moved that tears filled his eyes when he received the Soul-Clearing Pill from Ning Xuan. His health had been getting worse in recent years, and he often suffered from unbearable headaches every night. This pill was exactly what he needed most, and this gift really touched his heart.
Afterwards, the old dean enthusiastically took Ning Xuan to visit the dormitory where Yu Mingche lived when he was a child, and the pictures carved on the dormitory pillars. After more than an hour, Ning Xuan and Yu Mingche said goodbye and left under the reluctant gaze of the old dean.
Yu Mingche sent someone special to take care of the old dean here. On weekdays, as long as Yu Mingche was in Central Star, he would visit him every ten days or half a month.
On the way back, in the car, Ning Xuan lay comfortably on Yu Mingche's thighs, and Yu Mingche was massaging her head.
At this moment, Ning Xuan's light brain suddenly rang. Ning Xuan raised her hand and took a look. It was a video call from Ying Yaoshi.
Ning Xuan frowned. "Look, Ying Yaoshi is urging Lan Xin to come back again. He just sent a message yesterday. Humph, he doesn't have the time to fulfill his obligation to accompany her, yet he insists on prying Lan Xin away from me."
Ning Xuan complained dissatisfiedly that Lan Xin's beauty was comparable to Di Youlin and Yun Han, and she was much more docile and obedient than the other two. She also had the ability to change her form. She had been addicted to playing these days, so naturally she was unwilling to let her go now.
Ning Xuan didn't get through to Ying Yaoshi's call. Just as she was considering whether to call him back, Yu Mingche's computer started ringing.
"Take it." Ning Xuan waved her hand.
Yu Mingche nodded and connected the video. A faint blue light flashed in front of the two of them, and then the holographic image of Ying Yaoshi gradually appeared.
He was wearing a dark black gilt military uniform with double rows of gold buttons fastened tightly to below his Adam's apple. His epaulettes were wrapped with dark silver thorns, which was the thorn badge representing the highest command authority of the army.
Ying Yaoshi's face seemed carved from polar ice. His brows cast shadows, revealing a pair of eyes as deep as a cold pond. His mouth was tightly drawn, his expression serious yet tinged with melancholy.
"Master Contract Master is well." Ying Yaoshi saw Ning Xuan's image also appear in the camera, and he stood up and bowed to Ning Xuan.
A subtle electrical noise came from the holographic image, and amidst this noise, one could hear the platinum chain buckles on the cuffs of Ying Yaoshi's military uniform gently colliding as he raised his hand, making a crisp sound similar to the clash of weapons.
Ying Yaoshi only greeted Ning Xuan, but did not say hello to Yu Mingche, as if he had ignored Yu Mingche directly.
Yu Mingche couldn't help but silently roll his eyes. Ning Xuan sat up and said, "Didn't you call Mingche? You guys chat, I won't disturb you."
"Xuanxuan, I called him because I guessed that you were with Yu Mingche. I have nothing to say to him. I am looking for you." Ying Yaoshi said immediately.
"Since you called him, why didn't you even say hello? Aren't you being impolite?" Ning Xuan blatantly supported Yu Mingche.
When Yu Mingche saw Ning Xuan's attitude, he smiled and looked at Ying Yaoshi proudly.
Ying Yaoshi's face, which was already somewhat gloomy, became even darker now.
"Master, how are you?" Ying Yaoshi bowed perfunctorily to Yu Mingche.
Yu Mingche replied seriously, "I hope the Marshal is well."
"What do you want from me?" Ning Xuan asked.
"Xuanxuan, it's time for Lan Xin to come back. You promised me before that you would let Lan Xin follow me in the future. Lan Xin has been resting for almost a month. Let him come back quickly in the next two days." Ying Yaoshi said to Ning Xuan.
"How dare you bring this up? Lan Xin didn't come back once for the entire last year. Fortunately, I brought him enough pills, otherwise his spiritual sea would have been out of control long ago. Do you know that he is a half-orc? Without me by his side, he would easily become alienated or even suffer a mental collapse." Ning Xuan asked dissatisfiedly.
"We conduct inspections on officers of all levels every month. Those with problems will be checked immediately to check their security level. Lan Xin's security level has always been above the average level, so she did not take home leave." Ying Yaoshi explained.
"If your data is so accurate, there wouldn't be so many people in the army dying from mental breakdown every year." Ning Xuan said disdainfully.
Ning Xuan's words actually left Ying Yaoshi speechless. Indeed, those tests were only to test the situation at the time. Sometimes when encountering emergencies or suffering from contamination, the alienation value would soar rapidly.
"Let's not talk about the previous year. Starting from this year, Lan Xin must come back every three months." Ning Xuan said,
