Chapter 1,257: Brewing Medicine (Part 1)

(The second update is coming.)

————————————

In the special care ward of Qian Hospital.

Ye Xiu carefully examined the medicinal materials.

Every time a box was opened, Ye Xiu observed it very carefully.

Each of these medicinal materials is a must-have ingredient for Xuming Pills, and they must not contain any moisture. Even if there is just a little bit of poor quality, or a slight mistake, it may lead to the failure of Xuming Pills.

Moreover, almost all of these medicinal materials were things that Ye Xiu had never seen before.

Although Ye Xiu has long been familiar with the characteristics of these medicinal materials, they are only obtained on paper after all, and there is a saying that what is obtained on paper is ultimately shallow.

There are always some differences between the real object and the description on paper.

There were more than ten medicinal herbs in total. It took Ye Xiu more than half an hour to inspect them. Ye Xiu confirmed each medicinal ingredient not only by its appearance, but also by its color, aroma, and some medicinal ingredients were used directly. Hands, by touch, even deliberately breaking it apart to check its quality.

What made Ye Xiu and Ye San relieved was that after Ye Xiu's careful identification, there was nothing wrong with the medicinal materials collected by Ye San. All the medicinal materials were correct, and all the medicinal materials were correct. The quality is very good.

"Dr. Ye, what's next?"

After confirming that the medicinal materials were fine, Ye San and Shen both breathed a sigh of relief, but also looked at Ye Xiu nervously.

They only knew that Ye Xiu asked them to collect these medicinal materials and knew that these medicinal materials could save Ye Lao's life, but they had no idea how to use these medicinal materials.

"I will go back and brew these medicinal materials. After they are cooked, I will give them to Mr. Ye."

Ye Xiudao.

"Okay, then I'll leave it to Dr. Ye."

Ye San and Shen Lao didn't ask Ye Xiu how to make it.

They all knew that this should be Ye Xiu's inheritance and the secret method of their sect.

"You two don't have to be so polite."

Ye Xiu smiled.

Before returning to the hospital bed, he conducted a simple check on Mr. Ye and made sure that there would be no problems for the time being. Ye Xiu left the special care ward with the safe.

Although the special care unit has all the basic equipment, making medicine is not that simple.

Mr. Shen and Mr. Ye didn't make any further arrangements for Ye Xiu just taking away those rare medicinal materials. They didn't even arrange an escort for Ye Xiu.

Because they all knew that it was impossible for Ye Xiu to carry these medicinal materials out of Yanjing City.

And in Yanjing City, no one is likely to have any idea about these medicinal materials.

At this moment, in Yanjing City, there are not only Mr. Shen, but also Li Wenlong. Once there is any disturbance, they can rush to it as soon as possible. Anyone who wants to use these medicinal materials must carefully weigh it. Can he escape from Li Wenlong and Mr. Shen?

"Mr. Shen, what do you think about Doctor Ye?"

Watching Ye Xiu leave with the medicinal materials, Ye San looked at Mr. Shen with some anxiety.

"Wait, then."

Mr. Shen said slowly, "We have no other better way now. We have no other choice but to believe in him!"

"That's what Mr. Shen said."

Ye San nodded.

"I hope there won't be any problems with Dr. Ye, and it will definitely succeed."

Ye San glanced at his father lying on the bed, praying silently in his heart.

The reason why he couldn't help asking Mr. Shen just now was that he was not worried about what Ye Xiu would think of those medicinal materials. He was worried about whether Ye Xiu would have any problems during the treatment process and whether Ye Xiu could successfully cook it. Those medicinal materials.

He didn't know exactly how Ye Xiu prepared it, but he knew a little bit about common sense. The rarer the medicinal materials and the more mysterious the medicinal effects, the harder it would be to prepare them!

……………………

After returning home and putting away the safe, Ye Xiu began the process of preparing the medicine.

The first step in brewing medicine is naturally to prepare the tools.

Although Ye Xiu also has some tools at home, and even professional tools that he used to make plasters in the past, these tools are just ordinary tools. They can be used to cook some Chinese medicine, and they can barely cook those plasters, but they have to be used to make plasters. It's not even close to being used to make life-sustaining pills.

In a sense, the process of making Xuanming Pills is no longer an ordinary medicine, but can be called the so-called alchemy.

In ancient times, the requirements for alchemy cauldrons were very high, and they were often large cauldrons. Of course, Ye Xiu couldn't use those big cauldrons or divine cauldrons to make the life-sustaining pills, but he still had to find some that were durable and could withstand high pressure. furnace.

Some of the medicinal materials used to make Xuanming Pills need to be cooked under extremely high pressure.

If you use an ordinary boiler to cook it, you will either not be able to boil it, or it will easily explode. In ancient times, so-called furnace explosions often occurred when making alchemy. In fact, there are some reasons, that is, the furnace exceeds the limit. It has a high degree of pressure resistance. Of course, in ancient times, alchemy furnaces often exploded because of the messy elixir recipes. The ancients were superstitious about various visual phenomena and liked to add some sulfide to the elixir recipes. It achieves a very impressive effect, but most sulfides are flammable and explosive, so it is naturally easy to explode the furnace.

In ancient times, it would have been difficult for Ye Xiu to find such a furnace that could meet the requirements and withstand high temperature and pressure. Only extremely powerful families could gather manpower and material resources to obtain such a furnace. In fact, in ancient times, alchemy was Most people are those powerful people, and only those powerful people will be full of food and want to pursue the so-called immortality. Ordinary people have no time to think about those things.

But in this era of rapid technological development, it was much easier for Ye Xiu to find a stove.

Without even going out, he directly found a high-pressure boiler specifically for industrial and laboratory use online. Because the other party was also in Yanjing City and had a specialty store in Yanjing City. Ye Xiu didn't ask them to send it over. I chose to drive directly to get it myself, which was faster.

When picking up the stove, Ye Xiu also bought an ultra-high-power plug-in board, as well as other tools needed to brew medicine, including some ordinary medicine stoves.

After carefully checking and making sure that all the tools were ready, Ye Xiu still did not rush into cooking. Instead, he sat down cross-legged in the living room and adjusted his state, both physically and mentally. state.

Physically, first use the Qi of the Immortality Art to maintain your spirit and energy to peak condition.

Psychologically, first let yourself relax and calm down through breath adjustment, and at the same time, carefully review the method of making Xuanshengwan over and over again in your mind, including the details of each step, etc., think about everything clearly and think about it. Understand, make sure you clearly understand all the processes and methods of each step.

After adjusting his breath for nearly an hour, making sure that he had reached the peak state both physically and mentally, and that he was confident that he could brew the life-sustaining pills, Ye Xiu finally stood up and decided to start brewing them!
