In the evening, Li Xiu closed the door early. He wanted to refine the yellow marrow elixir that Yu Tong gave him. This was the elixir that Yu Tong taught him step by step while he was recovering from his injuries! But at that time, it was all used to restore Yu Tong’s skills!
Li had just bought Huang Jingzhi and trimmed half of it. He kept the remaining half for later use.
Several auxiliary materials have been ground into powder. You only need to determine how long they should be placed, add water a few times in between, boil it in a medicine jar to make a paste, and then it can be cooled into a pill. The refining of the Yellow Marrow Pill is relatively simple, and Li Xiu, who has been a doctor for many years, has no problem refining the Yellow Marrow Pill.
Prepare a large pile of firewood and a full tank of mountain spring water. It will take at least an hour to boil the yellow marrow pill, and everything is ready. Start the fire!
Li Xiu slowly held the firewood and stared at the bubbling medicine jar. At this time, the big bubbles in the medicine jar boiled and exploded. Li Xiu quickly poured a large bag of purple honeysuckle powder into the medicine jar and stirred quickly.
Fortunately, there was no slurry at the bottom. After waiting for the liquid to evenly calm down, Li Xiu used a ladle to fill the medicine jar with water.
Heaving a slight sigh of relief, Li Xiu prepared the next powder to be added.
…
Thump thump thump, the sound of knocking on the door panel sounded.
"It's closed! We don't sell medicine anymore. Let's go to Furentang!" Li Xiu shouted directly from the room.
Dong-dong-dong, there was a louder knock on the door, and a woman's cry.
"Doctor Li, help! Please... open the door! Help my dad!"
Li Xiu looked back at the medicine jar and went to open the door angrily.
The door panel opened a crack, and Li Xiu saw a girl with tears on her face, and old man Liu leaning against his drug store.
The injured person was none other than Old Man Liu, the owner of the wonton stall, and the one who was crying was his beautiful daughter who helped him every morning and evening.
"This...no, I was still walking fast at noon, why is it like this at night?" Li Xiu muttered and stepped forward to check Old Man Liu's injury.
There was blood at the corner of Old Man Liu's mouth, his breath was like gossamer, and his face was pale. Li Xiu estimated that Old Man Liu was completely exhausted when he reached his Chuncaotang.
After taking off Old Man Liu's clothes, his chest and abdomen were covered with bruises. These injuries were caused by being beaten!
"Why don't you go to Furentang? My medical skills are not very good!" Li Xiu said to the crying girl beside him.
"Fu Ren Tang... they... they won't let me in... wu wu wu." The girl cried even harder.
"What's going on?" Li Xiu looked up and saw a few rogues looking at the place from a distance.
"My dad...my dad..." The girl wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Li Xiu.
Someone must have taken a liking to Old Man Liu's daughter and bullied her. Li Xiu snorted and turned around to get some medicine.
In a short time, Li Xiu came out with his small medicine box and several sets of plasters.
He gave Old Man Liu an injection with a simple fish bone syringe, applied a plaster on him, and took a few pills. Li Xiu hurried back to the house to continue guarding the medicine jar where he refined the Huang Marrow Pill.
In the middle, Li Xiu also took out a blanket and covered Old Man Liu with it. This move also moved Old Man Liu's daughter even more.
Three days ago, Deacon She from the Green Snake Gang sent someone to give Old Man Liu ten taels of gold, saying it was a betrothal gift for marrying Old Man Liu's daughter.
Her own daughter was the one she cared about. Thinking of what her mother had said before, how could her daughter become a concubine in someone else's house?
How dare Old Man Liu go to pick it up? He wanted to return the twelve taels of gold, but he could no longer be found. How could he know where the Green Snake Gang was based?
In desperation, Old Man Liu had to go out to the stall every day for the past three days and wait for the Green Snake Gang to return the gold.
The people of the Green Snake Gang publicized the news on the streets every day that Old Man Liu had received a betrothal gift and was planning to marry his daughter in three days.
Old Man Liu wanted to give them his gold and refuse the marriage, but these gangsters from the Green Snake Gang refused to accept it.
When Li Xiu was eating wontons, the two of them were feeling wronged and sad. After Li Xiu left, Old Liu was blocked by the thugs from the Green Snake Gang.
The Green Snake Gang members questioned Old Man Liu about taking the bride price but not marrying off his daughter, and beat Old Man Liu.
When Old Man Liu was injured, these Green Snake Gang members did not make things difficult for Old Man Liu's daughter, but they specifically dealt with the neighbors on the left and right who helped Old Man Liu and his daughter.
Several neighbors who were aggrieved were beaten up by the gangsters of the Green Snake Gang.
The onlookers were angry but dared not say anything. The Green Snake Gang wanted to force Old Man Liu's daughter to submit to her. She had no choice but to become someone else's concubine.
Later in the evening, Old Man Liu's injuries worsened, and Old Man Liu's daughter had to take her seriously injured father to Fu Ren Tang for medical treatment.
Unexpectedly, Furentang refused to allow Old Man Liu to enter because of the threat from the Green Snake Gang.
Old man Liu and his daughter came to Li Xiu's place. By the time they got here, old man Liu was already furious!
If it weren't for Li Xiu's injection of medicine, Old Man Liu might have died.
Li Xiu gave some precautions to the girl whose face was full of tears. He entered the room and continued to look at his medicine jar.
Adding firewood, medicine, and water, Li Xiu concentrated on brewing the medicine. The noise outside mixed with the sound of sticks hitting the door came into the house.
"Don't worry, Madam-in-law, brothers will treat this family well! Boys, please destroy this family!" shouted a fat-headed man with a ferocious look on his face and an iron vest on his upper body.
Seven or eight gangsters rushed into the Spring Thatched Cottage with sticks. This was the critical moment for Li Xiu to refine the Yellow Marrow Pill. How could he dare to move?
After the thugs entered the house, they smashed them all up. While Li Xiu felt sorry for his medicine shop, he kept an eye on the refining of the Huang Marrow Pill. When the last Huang Jingzhi was put in, he didn't dare to neglect and kept his eyes on the medicine jar.
The medicinal liquid in the medicine jar was churning, and Li Xiu stirred it at the right time.
The gangsters smashed up the Chuncao Hall and threw the herbs all over the floor.
I thought that Li Xiu, the shop owner, would be heartbroken and upset, but who knew that this guy kept staring at the medicine jar on the stove!
This immediately angered these gangsters. One gangster pointed at Li Xiu's medicine jar and shouted, "Smash that jar!"
Two rogues stepped forward, one to hit Li Xiu and the other to swing the medicine jar. Li Xiu stared at the medicine juice and secretly used the Yuansha energy on his body.
The rogue's stick hit Li Xiu's body, but he didn't even pay attention. Instead, another rogue's stick hit the medicine jar. Li Xiu rushed over and blocked the stick with his back.
A strong dragon cannot suppress a local snake. Li Xiu didn't want to cause trouble, but he was really angry when he smashed his medicine shop like this!
Li Xiuxian protected the medicine jar with his body to block the falling stick.
The stick that the scoundrel slammed down was blocked by Li Xiu, and the force of the rebound knocked the whistle stick away. The scoundrel's wrists were numb, and he angrily punched Li Xiu in the back.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!" The dull voice was extremely harsh.
Li Xiuhun was unconscious. He turned around, grabbed the rogue's wrist, and wrapped it around his own arm.
"Crack! Crack! Crack!"
The naughty arm instantly turned into a twist.
"ah!"
The rogue behind Li Xiu covered his drooped arms and howled in pain.
At this time, Li Xiu watched Huang Jingzhi tumbling little by little, the power of the medicine gradually blending into the liquid, and the fragrance of the medicine became stronger and stronger, and a smile appeared on Li Xiu's face.
"My hand!" Pipi wailed in pain.
When the other gangsters saw their companions suffering a loss, they rushed over one by one, attacking Li Xiu with sticks and fists.
Li Xiu used his arms to hold the sticks that were about to hit the medicine jar one by one. His Yuanzhao Jin had reached the strength of the top warriors in the world, and his body was as if it was protected by a golden bell.
The Yellow Marrow Pill had just been refined, and Li Xiu no longer had any scruples!
