Immortal Mortal

Chapter 19: Falling short of success

Views:

Two hours later, the expectation in Mo Wuji's eyes gradually disappeared. This medicinal liquid indeed expanded one of his meridians, but this expansion slowly stopped after two hours. The disappearance of the burning feeling means that the power of the medicine is exhausted. But his meridian didn't seem to be open.

how so? Like a bucket of cold water being poured down from the beginning, Mo Wuji completely forgot about the pain when his veins expanded.

It feels like there are many blockages in a ditch, and when the water rushes over, these blockages are about to be washed away by the water, and when the ditch is about to penetrate, the water suddenly disappears. The garbage that was struck down blocked the exit and formed a dam, making it even more blocked than before.

After Mo Wuji drank this potion in his previous life, he was assassinated before two hours. So he didn't know that not only could this medicine not penetrate the meridians, but it would also make the meridians more blocked at certain locations.

No, the dose must be insufficient.

Mo Wuji gritted his teeth and opened another bottle of potion, tilted his head and poured it all down.

If there was just a line of fire burning in his body the first time, this time it was like swallowing a fireball. Mo Wuji felt that his whole body would be torn apart by the fireball and then burned to ashes.

The severe pain was completely unbearable and he collapsed on the ground. By the end, his whole body was numb and it was difficult to breathe. After another hour or two, the excruciating pain gradually disappeared.

Mo Wuji stood up shakily, holding on to the bench, feeling cold in his heart. He clearly felt that the second bottle of medicine only made him more painful, and then it was clogged in the same place as the first time.

He was sure that if he dared to drink a third bottle, not only would his meridians be unable to leave, but he might also die.

In a word, his medicine to open up the meridians failed.

If that woman knew that his potion still failed, I wonder if she would regret it. Maybe she didn't regret killing Mo Wuji, but regretted not waiting for him to research the liquid that could truly expand his meridians.

Mo Wuji slowly moved to the table, and he saw the pale and desperate face in the mirror. He knew he would never get another chance. From heartfelt joy to despair, there are only four hours in between. Four hours later, he found that he still had not penetrated any meridians, and he still could not practice.

If he were on Earth, he might still have a way to spend time correcting this liquid. Here, he didn't have half a chance. It is strange that this kind of medicinal liquid can be researched in Danhan Medicine Refining Laboratory. What he was able to do before was more based on his experience.

Waves of weakness came over him, and Mo Wuji slowly came back to his senses. He let out a long sigh. He couldn't force himself when he was hit. He grabbed the kettle on the table and got a glass of water.

No, Mo Wuji took down the cup that was already close to his lips, and his face became paler.

After studying plants for many years, Mo Wuji knew the characteristics of most plants clearly. The water he poured just now had a faint smell of poisonous arrowwood.

This is definitely a medicinal solution extracted from Poison Arrow Wood, something that can seal your throat when it sees blood.

Someone wanted to kill him, and Mo Wuji's originally lost and despairing heart suddenly trembled.

In just a moment, Mo Wuji understood what was going on. Because he is of the blood of the county king, he was crazy before, so naturally no one would care about him. Now that he is normal, people who are interested will definitely know about it. In addition, he is refining medicine in Danhan, so he will definitely have no shortage of money in the future. No one would take the descendant of a crazy county king seriously. The capable descendants of the county king of Northern Qin would be scary, at least they would make the guy who wanted to be the king of Northern Qin afraid.

Mo Wuji gently put down the cup and calmed down. The Xinghan Empire was so huge that just because he couldn't allow himself to develop spiritual roots didn't mean there was nothing he could do. Since there is still a chance, he must not give up on himself.

Putting away the two empty green bottles, Mo Wuji suddenly felt a little more grateful. Fortunately, his pulse-opening liquid did not succeed. If it had succeeded, he would definitely take the gold coins and go to the spiritual pagoda again. That might be the real bad thing.

Before, he was bent on giving himself the qualifications to practice and did not consider the danger at all. Just imagine how the people who plotted against his Mo family could let a normal descendant of the Northern Qin County Prince live

How can you know that it is a blessing in disguise

A deep sense of crisis came over him, and Mo Wuji knew that he could no longer stay in Danhan to refine medicine. For a person like him who has no roots and no background, it is too easy for others to plot against him.

But where can he go

"Master Mo, the people from Chengling Jidan Workshop are here. The owner is keeping company and would like to invite you over." Lulu's voice came, interrupting Mo Wuji's thoughts in time.

"Okay, I'll go right away." Mo Wuji opened the door, "By the way, I accidentally got some dirt in this pot of water and cup. Pour the water in and help me wash the pot carefully. .”

Mo Wuji was refining medicine in Danhan, and Lulu had been taking care of him. Mo Wuji believed that the person who drugged him was definitely not Lulu. There was no difficulty in getting in and out of this kind of place. People who wanted to harm him would not be stupid enough to let others take action.

"Yes, Master Mo." Lulu's respect for Mo Wuji came from deep in her heart. Before Master Mo came, what kind of life did Danhan spend refining medicine, and what kind of life is he living now.

"Haha, Brother Mo, let me introduce to you. This is Mi Xiu, the owner of Chenglingji Dan Workshop..." As soon as Mo Wuji walked into the door of the Danhan Medicine Refining Conference Room, Lu Jiujun laughed and stood up. Pointing at a young woman. The title of Brother Mo seemed to deliberately show that he and Mo Wuji had an extraordinary relationship.

"Hey, Brother Mo, are you not feeling well?" Lu Jiujun interrupted his introduction. Even though everyone from the Chengling Jidan Workshop came to him, they couldn't compare to one of Mo Wuji's fingers. Mo Wuji looked pale and felt a little weak when walking. He immediately became worried.

Mo Wuji waved his hand, "No, I'm just too tired these days."

After that, he said to the young woman who also stood up, "I have long admired the name of Master Mi Fang. I am honored to meet you."

Mi Xiu's eyes glanced at Mo Wuji suspiciously, and she smiled sweetly and said, "I'm also aware of the name Pharmacist Mo. It turns out that it's better to see it in person than to hear it."

Mo Wuji knew what Mi Xiu meant, and he chuckled, "Actually, I have good times and bad times, and sometimes I still think of myself as the king."

If it doesn't work, he will continue to act like an idiot.

Mi Xiu smiled awkwardly, "Master Mo smiled, let me introduce you too."

She pointed to a middle-aged man next to her who looked very amiable and said, "This is Wu Hetai, the elder of my Chengling Jidan Workshop."

Another old man who was nearly sixty years old stood up and said proactively without waiting for Mi Xiu's introduction, "I am Liu Wansheng, the sales manager of Chengling Jidan Workshop. I am very happy to meet Yaoshi Mo."

Mo Wuji knew what Chenglingjidan Workshop was doing here, and then smiled slightly, "Let's sit down and talk."
