Chapter 627, Eight Meridians Pill
"Master, look at what this is?"
Looking at the foot-long piece of blood-red wood shaped like a human spine in the porcelain basin, Gu Jian was stunned. It took him a while to come back to his senses. Then he pounced on the porcelain basin like a tiger descending from the mountain, carefully protecting it and examining it carefully.
When Daohua saw this, she smiled and handed over a magnifying glass.
Gu Jian glanced at the magnifying glass and didn't recognize her, so he reached out and pushed Daohua's hand away, asking her not to block him.
Daohua smiled helplessly: "Master, this is a magnifying glass made by me, Xiao Yeyang. If there is anything you can't see clearly, you can use this to see it clearly."
Gu Jian paused, frowned, took the magnifying glass, and placed it in front of the blood red wood. Suddenly, the blood red wood in his sight was magnified several times, and the grain that was originally unclear could now be seen.
Gu Jian showed joy on his face. Of course, his joy was not because of the magnifying glass, but because with the magnifying glass he could more carefully identify the blood red wood in front of him.
After examining it several times with a magnifying glass, Gu Jian straightened up woodenly and looked at the rice flowers in disbelief: "You...you grew it?"
Daohua nodded proudly, with a look that said 'she's awesome' written all over her face.
Gu Jian took a deep breath, pulled Daohua to sit down, and said seriously, "Can you tell me in detail how you grew this Jingsui grass?"
Daohua, who had been prepared, took out her little notebook and talked to Gu Jian in detail.
Gu Jian grabbed the small notebook and quickly flipped through it, his expression difficult to describe.
Can you just go to the mountains and forests and dig up some soil to grow Jingsui grass?
If that were really the case, there would be masters of internal martial arts everywhere.
Gu Jian confirmed again, "Are you sure you grew the Jingsui grass this way?"
The process of the apprentice planting the meridian grass was extremely simple, so simple that he felt that the blood red wood in front of him was not a rare meridian grass, but a weed in the field.
Daohua nodded confidently, pointing to the Jingsui grass on the table and saying, "Master, the evidence is all here. Why would you not believe it?"
"If you ask me, this Jingsui grass shouldn't be as difficult to grow as the legend says. Perhaps some people with ulterior motives have deliberately exaggerated its rarity."
Gu Jian knew very well whether Jingsui Grass was really rare.
Back then, the late emperor wanted to practice internal martial arts to increase his lifespan. He spent twenty to thirty years on this and sent countless people to look for the Jingsui grass, but unfortunately, he found nothing.
Seeing that Gu Jian was still frowning in thought, Daohua shook his arm and said, "Okay, Master, stop thinking about it." Then she motioned to Wang Man'er to bring the other herbs for preparing the Eight Meridians Pill.
Daohua pushed the herbs towards Gu Jian and said, "Master, I have collected all the herbs for the Eight Meridians Pill. Go and prepare it quickly. Xiao Yeyang and my two brothers will be going out on business in a few days. I want them to open up the Eight Extraordinary Meridians before they go."
Looking at the medicinal herbs on the table, Gu Jian really didn't know what expression to make.
Is the disciple too powerful?
Every medicinal herb on the table was not easy to find, but she had given him such a big surprise without saying anything, which made him a little bit unable to accept it.
You know, he has been dealing with medicine all his life, but his life's collection is not as much as what his apprentice took out this time.
Seeing Gu Jian sitting there distracted, Daohua couldn't help but wave her hand in front of his eyes: "Master, let's go and make the Eight Meridians Pill. I'll help you."
Gu Jian looked at the Jingsui grass with reluctance: "Do we have to prepare it today?" He hadn't seen enough.
The quality of the Jingsui grass in front of him was surprisingly good, even better than the one he had seen in Yaowang Valley before.
Daohua: "Xiao Yeyang and I have agreed that they will come tomorrow, and we will try to prepare the Eight Meridians Pill today." As she said that, she gestured to Wang Man'er and Bishi to bring the herbs, and she went straight forward to help Gu Jian up.
"Master, let's go to the pharmacy to get the medicine."
Outside the door, Caiju and Dongli both winked at Gu Jian.
Jingsuicao, such a precious medicinal herb should of course be presented to the emperor, how can I use it myself?!
Unfortunately, Gu Jian was still in a daze and didn't notice the expressions of the two people at all.
After entering the pharmacy, Daohua drove everyone else out and left only her and Gu Jian inside.
"Master, what should we do first?"
Daohua rolled up her sleeves and pulled the Jingsui grass out of the porcelain basin.
Gu Jian saw this and was so frightened that his heart trembled. He took two steps at a time and rushed over to grab the Jingsui grass: "Don't damage my medicinal herbs."
Daohua was speechless. This was her medicinal herb, okay?
Gu Jian carefully put the Jingsui grass away, and seeing Daohua looking at him with sharp eyes, as if she couldn't wait to prepare the Bamai Pill, he rubbed his Taiyang acupoint, was silent for a moment, and then began to instruct her to prepare the medicine.
At the same time, outside the prescription door, Wang Maner, Bishi, Caiju and Dongli were looking at each other.
Wang Man'er frowned and looked at the two of them: "Master Gu and my daughter are not allowed to be disturbed when they are preparing medicine. You two should stop hanging around here."
At this time, Granny Gu came out of the room, looked at the four people confronting each other, and said, "What are you doing?"
Dongli curled the corners of his mouth and shook his head, saying, "Madam, we didn't do anything. Let's go to work now." After that, he looked at Caiju bitterly, glanced at the pharmacy unwillingly, turned around and left, and then those who chopped wood chopped wood, and those who were washing clothes did laundry.
The most difficult part of preparing Bamai Dan is collecting all the necessary herbs. Once all the herbs are collected, the preparation process is not so troublesome.
Daohua and Gu Jian worked for a whole day and night. At noon the next day when Xiao Yeyang brought Yan Wentao and Yan Wenkai over, they had already prepared the Eight Meridians Pill.
"Why are there only three?"
Daohua looked at the three bright red pills in the medicine box with dissatisfaction.
Gu Jian couldn't help but roll his eyes. "Being able to prepare three pills is already a blessing, okay? If the herbs you brought weren't of good quality, being able to prepare just one would be amazing."
Daohua frowned: "But...but Xiao Yeyang got one, my third brother and fourth brother got one each, what about me?"
Gu Jian was speechless and said, "You are just a little girl, why are you opening up the eight extraordinary meridians?"
Daohua: "I also want to practice internal skills and learn Qinggong."
Gu Jian was even more speechless: "Why would a girl practice internal skills?"
Daohua retorted, "Why can't a girl practice? At least she can protect herself if she practices."
Gu Jian didn't want to waste time talking to his apprentice. "Do you still need to learn martial arts to protect yourself? If you learn all the medicine-making techniques that your master taught you, who can hurt you?"
Throwing out a handful of poison and killing a large number of people indiscriminately, isn't this better than practicing martial arts?
Daohua snorted, still looking unhappy.
Light Kung Fu, floating on water, climbing walls and so on, how cool.
At this time, Xiao Yeyang, Yan Wentao and Yan Wenkai came back to their senses from their shock.
Daohua said that she would give them a big surprise. Looking at the three Eight Meridians Pills on the table, the three of them thought at the same time that this surprise was indeed a big one.
Gu Jian ignored his apprentice and looked at Xiao Yeyang and the other two. "Since you're all here, get ready. I'll prepare a medicinal soup for you this afternoon, and then use it with the Eight Meridians Pill to open up the eight extraordinary meridians."
As soon as these words came out, before anyone else could react, Dongli outside the door shouted, "No."
"Swish, swish, swish!"
Everyone looked at Dongli.
Cai Ju secretly thought that something bad was going to happen.
Sure enough, everyone’s eyesight wasn’t very good.
Daohua frowned and looked at Dongli: "Why not?"
Under the gaze of everyone, Dongli felt under tremendous pressure, especially the look in the young prince's eyes, which made him feel like he was being tortured to death. In just a moment, sweat broke out on his forehead.
Caiju knelt down quickly and said, "Miss Yan, you are always happy and angry. Dongli's "no" wasn't meant for you, but for me. I just had a conflict with him and wanted to throw his axe away. He got angry and said "no".
Gu Jian glanced at the two of them calmly and said in a deep voice, "Back off."
Dongli and Caiju quickly retreated.
Daohua looked away, sighed again at the three Eight Meridians Pills, but then laughed again: "Fortunately, there are three. If there were only one, or two, that would be a problem." Then, she smiled at Xiao Yeyang and the other two, "It just so happens that there is one for each of you."
