"Then, what is this thing that can be so useful?"
Yue Guanchao was really curious as to what could be so powerful about this health-preserving Gu, and urged Wu Mifeng to continue talking.
Wu Mi Feng continued to explain while he was still drunk: "This health-nurturing Gu is actually a thin-winged mealworm made from hundreds of flowers and herbs. It is about the size of a needle tip. It is usually attached to the muscles and bones. If the lungs are injured, it can be used to warm and nourish the lungs. , injured bones will warm and nourish the bones, and even damaged appetites can nourish the appetite. In short, as long as the body is not dead on the spot, as long as there is still breath, these mealworms can be used to nourish the injuries."
"But!" He changed the topic: "Although this thing is said to nourish the body, it is not a panacea. It just delays the decay of the wound and death. If there is no medical skill to save it, it will still die."
"Then...then, is it difficult to raise this health-nurturing Gu?"
Wu Mi Feng shook his head this time and retorted: "In the final analysis, health-preserving Gu is just a Gu. It is not difficult to cultivate it, but this kind of Gu can also be regarded as recognizing its master. The longer it stays in the body, the more it can protect the host's body. , why, you also want to nourish your body Gu?"
"Uncle Wu, you really have a sharp eye. I think the dangers in the canyon are unpredictable. I was wondering if we could all be planted with health-preserving Gu, so that even if we are injured, we don't have to worry too much."
This made Wu Mi Feng feel a little embarrassed. He said with a troubled face: "This health-preserving Gu can indeed be cultivated, but it is not a powerful pill kneaded with soy sauce dough. You can knead it as much as you want. It takes a lot of effort to cultivate it." , it would take several months just to select the Cordyceps and Hundreds of Cordyceps, and I cultivated the health-preserving Gu for Xuan Yu, which took half a year to complete."
"To cultivate health Gu, you need to collect hundreds of flowers, catch hundreds of insects, remove the rough and extract the essence, promote the good and eliminate the bad. In short, it is to be selective, completely remove the toxins of flowers, plants and insects, and only retain the part of them that cures diseases, saves people and warms the body. Half a year is already the limit .”
"If it is definitely too late to cultivate it now, even if I have extraordinary abilities, I can't speed up the process. However, there is still one health-nurturing Gu cultivated half a year ago. If you are willing, I will give it to you. How about it?"
"One?"
"right."
After saying that, Wu Mifeng walked into the side room of the study, took out a half-palm-sized box from the wall-to-wall medicine cabinet, and placed it on the table: "Originally, this kind of health-preserving Gu needs to be cultivated for more than a year. After she made it, I speeded up to six months. At that time, I thought I would need it urgently, so I prepared two copies. Fortunately, I have the health-preserving Gu myself. Otherwise, I would have sacrificed this health-preserving Gu long ago. The Temple of the Five Internal Organs~"
"Well, I'm sorry!"
Yue Guanchao opened the box and found the elixir wrapped in silk handkerchief.
After opening it, you can see the elixir the size of a longan fruit, with a translucent texture like cooked duck egg white. Inside the transparent elixir, tiny poisonous insects are wrapped in yellow silkworm skin, which looks particularly strange.
"Why is this elixir transparent?"
Wu Mifeng knew that Yue Guanchao was curious about this, so he explained: "All Gu insects are alive. If there is no nutritional supply, they will not live long. The things outside are duck egg white and lard ointment, which can keep the Gu insects alive temporarily." Inside, after being eaten, the egg white and duck egg white will temporarily protect it, and until this layer of shell melts away, the voodoo insects will disperse to the limbs and bones."
"Oh, so that's what it means. Then, after eating this thing, will it conflict with other poison-repelling pills and kill them?"
Yue Guanchao thought that the Hedgehog Pill could cure hundreds of poisons. If he really ate the Hedgehog Pill in the canyon, he might also be able to defeat the health-preserving poison.
Wu Mifeng knew what Yue Guanchao meant, and shook his head and retorted: "The health-preserving poison is a good poison, and the hedgehog pill kills vicious and evil poisons, so there is no harm to it. On the contrary, these poisons will also help people resist other poisons." The evil poison invades viciously.”
When Yue Guanchao heard this, he finally felt relieved: "Then, I'd like to thank you old man."
"Brother Yue, I don't think you are greedy for life. Why would you want this from me?"
Now, Wu Mifeng became curious and looked at the young man in front of him with curiosity.
"Brother-in-law is not asking for this for himself, he is asking for it for others."
Seeing the way Xu Xiake winked, Wu Mifeng, an old fox, already knew what was going on. He begged for this pill, probably for the sake of the woman he was traveling with.
"Yes, this woman doesn't have any martial arts skills. She is indeed more dangerous. With this health-nurturing Gu by her side, she is also a little safer."
Yue Guanchao was told something important, so he laughed and drank a few more glasses of wine with them. Seeing that everyone was already drunk, he simply said goodbye.
After returning, most of the people had already rested. The two walked into the yard arm in arm and fell asleep under the influence of wine.
In the morning of the next day, Jiang Shaoji led a Nuo dance troupe and set up a stage in the backyard of Lan Qingping's house. After Yue Guanchao and Xu Xiake sobered up, they heard gongs and drums beating in the backyard and followed the sound to the place.
Song Siyuan and the others were already sitting on the chairs below, staring at the stage with relish. Yue Guanchao walked up to Song Siyuan and stared at the Nuo dance performance on the stage.
This kind of opera is similar to the Nuo Dance Sacrifice Festival they saw, except that it is performed on a stage. The opera actors apply makeup, powder, and colorful robes. They wear masks and dance strangely on the stage. They even spit out fire, water, and smoke. Turning into rain is particularly interesting.
He took out the health-preserving Gu that he had obtained from Wu Mifeng and handed it to her: "Song Qianjin, I'll give you a good thing."
After speaking, he handed the thing to Song Siyuan. As soon as the thing was opened, it immediately attracted the attention of the surrounding people.
"This, isn't this a health-nurturing Gu?"
These health-preserving Gu pills were originally made by her begging old uncle Wu Mifeng. Judging from the time, it is impossible to make another one in a short time. If you think about it carefully, you will know that they are probably the same as her health-preserving Gu pills. Same batch.
"What is the health-preserving Gu?"
Song Siyuan picked up the pills and her eyes became curious. Wu Xuanyu came to her from the chair and whispered to each other.
"I can't use this thing, can I?"
Song Siyuan looked at Yue Guanchao, already knowing what he meant by giving this pill. She was probably afraid that she would be in danger in Wushen Gorge, so she specially prepared it in advance.
Wu Xuanyu didn't know what Yue Guanchao was thinking, so he interrupted: "Sister Song, this is a rare good thing. It takes a year to get one of the Gu. I soaked it for half a year last year, and then my uncle was willing to cultivate it for me." Gu, she can bring you this pill, which means that she values you very much, this is a great thing."
When Song Siyuan heard this, she already knew what Yue Guanchao was thinking, so she simply accepted the health-nurturing Gu first: "Okay, I will accept the health-nurturing Gu first."
Some people died, but not completely...
