"Then I'll thank you in advance. Oh, by the way, I have already refined several batches of elixirs here. I just need to refine another batch of life-sustaining elixirs, and then I can take them to the auction house and buy them at a good price. , I’m not afraid that the lion from the western regions will open his mouth.”
"Are you going to start refining the life-sustaining pill?"
"Yes, we will start refining today. Uncle Mo, if you are free, can you stay and help me?"
"Okay, okay, I'm very free, I don't have anything to do!"
How could Uncle Mo not know that she deliberately let him stay and taught him the refining method of the life-extending pill? He was very moved in his heart. For a pharmacist, a good pill recipe is as important as life, but But she easily taught it to him, who was neither a relative nor an acquaintance.
Song Ning turned around and left with the tea cup, and did not show up at the government office for several days. Everyone speculated whether it was because Yuan Qiu was so cold on weekdays that he broke Song Ning's heart, and he left in anger.
However, five days later, Song Ning appeared again, still as attentive and considerate as before, even more attentive.
"I'm here to help you." Seeing Yuan Qiu filling pills one by one into a small porcelain bottle, he stepped forward to help.
Yuan Qiu waved his hand: "No need, I won't worry if these things don't go through my hands."
Song Ning didn't force herself, she just found a seat and sat down by herself, looked at her for a while, and suddenly said: "Yuan Qiu, it's been a long time, have you still not thought of anything?"
She raised her eyes to look at him, lowered her eyes again, continued her work, and said softly, "I remembered something."
Song Ning's heart skipped a beat and she quickly asked, "What did you remember?"
She said calmly: "I remembered many pill recipes. I didn't expect that I am so proficient in refining medicine. I don't know about these pill recipes. Senior brother, do you have them?"
Song Ning breathed a sigh of relief at first, then after hearing Yuan Qiu's question, she secretly complained that something was wrong. She laughed and said, "You are really good at joking. These are all passed down to you by your master. How could I know?"
Yuan Qiu was puzzled and asked again: "We are all disciples of the master. Why is it only taught to me and not to you?"
Beads of sweat oozed from Song Ning's forehead: "Although there are many disciples, Master, you are the only one with the most talent. You are his close disciple, and you are usually the most favored by him. All he has learned in his life has been taught to you. We have only scratched the surface.”
The work in Yuan Qiu's hands has been completed. Each porcelain bottle has been filled with pills, and a note has been affixed with the name of the pill and its effect.
After hearing Song Ning's reply, she raised her lips slightly and said calmly: "Since we are from the same school, no matter who has more master's true knowledge, after all, medical skills and alchemy skills belong to the same path, right? "
Song Ning secretly felt that something was wrong, but she had to answer: "That's true!"
Yuan Qiu said again: "Daniu, you saw it yesterday. How is he recovering now?"
Song Ning said: "The damage to the five internal organs has been restored, the six ruptured meridians have become clear, the Qi meridians are harmonious, but the blood in the meridians is still a little unsmooth."
Yuan Qiu nodded: "Yes, if you use your method, how should I administer the medicine?"
Song Ning finally knew why he felt very bad. Yuan Qiu was testing him. Unless the prescription he gave was exactly what she thought, then she would approve of him. But if the prescription he gave was exactly the same as what she had in mind, If what she gives is different, she will doubt him.
What should we do
Seeing his hesitation, Yuan Qiu asked again: "Senior brother, can't you prescribe the medicine?"
Song Ning knew that he could prescribe medicine, but he had seen Yuan Qiu's medical skills. Although they were similar to his, they had different paths. They were both doctors and could tell who belonged to which sect at a glance. He couldn't take the risk. .
