Leaping Dragon Flying to the Sky

Xiaodong thanked Bumin for his kindness from Senior Brother Ning.

No matter how delicious it is, it is still medicine. What do people who are not sick take medicine properly?Maybe it will make you sick from eating.

The important reason is that Xiaodong is afraid of spoiling things.

Last year, when his high fever persisted, the senior brother gave him a pill of Buyuan, which cured his illness. He didn't know this until after the event.The elixir is precious, the master gave it to the elder brother, it was for him to go out just in case, but the elder brother didn't take it himself, and gave it to him when he came back.This time Senior Sister Linglong retreated, and Master left her a Bigu pill before leaving.

If it was someone from a famous family, rich and powerful, a little pill was nothing, but Huiliu Mountain was not that big, and it didn't have much family background, even Bigu Pills had to be counted and used sparingly.Since Senior Brother Ning's medicines are for curing diseases and strengthening the body, they must be expensive. If he really chewed them like jelly beans, it would be... too sinful.

Seeing that Xiaodong didn't appreciate the honor, Ning Yu was still a little disappointed: "This time it really tastes like melon, I'm not fooled."

Regardless of whether it tastes like melon or bitter melon, Xiaodong is determined not to eat it.

When Ning Yu was not in front of him, Jiang Fan took the time to complain to his junior brother.Jiang Fan was talkative by nature, no one told him before, the elder brother was so polite, he didn't dare to gossip with the elder brother.Linglong has a short temper and can't sit still. When Chen Jingzhi was still around, his temper...

Well, don't mention this person.

So it's better to be a junior brother, not only patient, listening to him for a long time without getting bored, but also answering a few words from time to time, just scratching Jiang Fan's itchy spot, and the conversation became more interesting.

"You were right not to eat just now!" Jiang Fan praised the little junior brother's wisdom as soon as he came up: "Otherwise, if something good or bad happens after eating, and the master is not there, it will be really incompetent. "

Xiaodong was also a little puzzled by Brother Jiang's words: "Senior Brother Ning didn't take poison... no way?"

"Hey, you're so young, how do you know what's going on here?"

Xiaodong: ...

He spoke as if he himself was seventy or eighty years old.

However, Xiaodong had long been used to Senior Brother Jiang's tone, and listened patiently to what he said.

"Alchemy is not an easy task. If it were easy, wouldn't everyone be able to make alchemy by planting some herbs, collecting some stone spirits and spiritual springs? Then how can the sect that is famous for alchemy make a living? ?”

Senior brother, you are so blatantly saying that it is not good for people to make a living?

"Besides, all kinds of pills have fixed prescriptions. How can it be so easy to succeed if you change the recipes randomly? Senior Brother Ning refuses to eat those pills that are offensive to the nose. He is thinking about making the pills more palatable. I know how many detours I have taken. At the beginning, he felt that the medicine was too bitter, and when refining the medicine, he had a whim and wanted to mix honey into it..."

Xiaodong thinks this way of thinking is not wrong.He vaguely remembered that when he took medicine when he was a child, he thought it was too bitter, so his uncle also made him some sugar to mix it in. In fact, the taste was even weirder after mixing it in. Not only was the bitterness not covered by the sugar, but it was complemented by the sweetness. , on the contrary, it seemed even more bitter, even the root of the tongue was painful, so I couldn't spit out all the medicine soup.

Later, my uncle thought of another way, and when feeding the medicine, it was done in one go. Actually, it couldn't be called feeding, but it had to be called irrigation.After pouring it down, quickly put a candy in his mouth and press it down.

"Has Senior Brother Ning succeeded?"

"Where is it? After he put the honey into the alchemy furnace, somehow the pill fire inside suddenly became bigger, and the flames shot up from the inside, almost burning his own eyebrows. The half-refined pill inside became It was black and sticky, and looked burnt."

"It's nothing if it's just burnt. The problem is, Master Hu tested it and said that the properties of the medicine are not seriously damaged. In order not to waste things, let him eat those burnt medicines as usual."

Uh, okay.

Presumably the burnt elixir tasted worse than before it was burnt.

"Later, Ning Yu tried to add this and that to the alchemy stove. Once, on a whim, he actually got some fresh meat and added it - because he was weak, and the real meat eater wouldn't let him eat it, and he had some meat. I am greedy for meat, so I wondered if I could refine the elixir to taste like meat..."

This sounds less reliable than adding sugar.

"What's the result?"

Jiang Fan chuckled: "I don't know, he refused to say, but since then I heard that he is no longer greedy for meat."

Xiaodong secretly sympathized with Senior Brother Ning in his heart, but he didn't know what happened to the elixir in the end.

It's really hard to judge a person by appearance, Senior Brother Ning looks like a person made of ice and snow, with no red dust or smoke on his body, he can't imagine that he will be greedy for meat.

Don't they all say that practitioners should be pure-hearted and ascetic?Mere appetite is not worth mentioning.Besides, gluttony is a child's fault, Senior Brother Ning is quite an adult, but he is still like a child.

"However, the number of failures has increased, and he has gradually figured out some ways. Although I haven't tasted his new pill, but it smells delicious, I must eat it much better than before."

Xiaodong admired Senior Brother Ning's character of making fun of hardships and being indomitable.It is said that where there is a will, there is a way, Senior Brother Ning, this is considered... hard work pays off, right?

But spending so much effort just to make the pill taste better, I always feel that it's a bit of a waste of time for him to do so.It would be great if the time and energy spent on it could be used to do other things.

Xiaodong was also curious about another thing.

"Senior brother Jiang, does Master Hu really tell people divinations when he sees them? Is the divination he gave senior brother true?"

"That's right." Jiang Fan couldn't suppress the smile on his face when he mentioned Master Hu, "Really Hu's temper, you'll know when you meet him later. On the body, whenever you catch someone who is pleasing to the eye, you have to count it out for others, no matter whether it is good or bad, you will be outspoken. Because of this, many people say behind his back that he is a lunatic, and some people because of his bad luck. He has turned his face and made enemies. Let’s just talk about the big brother. It’s obviously not accurate, and it’s so unlucky to calculate it. If it’s an ordinary person, he must say that the divination is inaccurate, so I won’t mention it. The more you get frustrated, the more courageous you become, every time you see senior brother, you have to do it again. Even if senior senior brother has a good temper, if you change it to a narrow-minded one, you might have already hated him."

Xiaodong hurriedly said, "Eldest senior brother is not that kind of person."

"That is, how about he is our senior brother?"

The two senior brothers praised the senior senior brother to each other, each working harder than the other.Jiang Fan originally wanted to say something, but he forgot it.
