Chapter 71

~7 min read 1,391 words

The Profound Gate is divided into five categories: Mountain, Medicine, Life, Physiognomy, and Divination, among which Mountain and Medicine are the most important.

The Lin family inheritance is these two items, collectively known as "Alchemy Dao" in ancient times.

I don't know how long it took, Lin Yu was wrapped in sweat, like a mud sculpture.

Suddenly, he opened his eyes, breathed a sigh of relief, and said softly: "It's done."

I saw white mist steaming in the Ru kiln pill furnace, and inside was a pill embryo as bright as blood plasma rolling.

The process that was expected to take three days to complete has now only passed one day.

Lin Yu was shocked by the Ru porcelain pill furnace in front of him, because the family ancient books recorded that a good pill furnace can indeed greatly shorten the pill refining time.

This was his first time using real spirit medicine to refine pills. After seeing the results, he realized that he had actually refined a top-grade pill embryo.

However, such a pill embryo still needs to be dried for a day to take shape.

So, Lin Yu walked to a corner of the basement and simply washed his body with a slender water pipe.

Under the dim light, you can see that his body has undergone a qualitative change: muscles are more solid, limbs are slender, and his face has become more three-dimensional and handsome.

Recalling the scene of his first attempt at refining pills, at that time he used an ordinary rice bowl, and it took seven days and seven nights of hard work to barely succeed.

And now, he knows that this is where the Lin family's generations of Profound Medicine practitioners refined pills.

Refining pills is a technique that goes against the sky and must be carried out in a place that does not see the sun, otherwise the pills cannot take shape.

Lin Yu glanced at the time, knowing that it would take another day to transform the pill embryo in his hand into a real pill.

So, he took out a painting scroll called "Travelers Among Mountains and Streams" from his bag, hung it on the wall of the pill refining room, and immersed himself in contemplation.

At the same time, in the City Lord Mansion, Jiang Yicheng received a call that shocked him.

"Elder... Elder Yan, hello..." His voice trembled, and cold sweat slid down his cheeks. He originally thought it was just a simple demolition matter of Miao Street, but he didn't expect it to alarm the prominent Elder Yan.

Facing Elder Yan's instructions, Jiang Yicheng could only respond mechanically: "Yes, yes, yes, I understand, I know, I will definitely do it."

After hanging up the phone, he punched the table angrily, full of resentment towards Zhang Yuru and the Neon Country woman, because their insistence on the land of Miao Street caused him huge trouble.

Jiang Yicheng angrily dialed Zhang Yuru's phone and gave him a severe reprimand for an hour.

Zhang Yuru did not dare to refute, and was eventually scolded to tears.

Subsequently, Zhang Yuru contacted Yuzao Huimei crying to discuss a new site selection plan.

However, Yuzao Huimei firmly demanded the location of Miao Street, promising that she could solve all problems.

Although she also received dissuasion calls from Huaxia partners, these instead strengthened her determination to develop Miao Street.

In order to promote the project, Yuzao Huimei took the initiative to call Jiang Yicheng to ask about the progress of Miao Street demolition.

Although Jiang Yicheng was dissatisfied, he still replied politely: "The demolition of Miao Street is very tricky, and I am under great pressure."

Hearing this, Yuzao Huimei expressed her willingness to help. This gave Jiang Yicheng an inspiration to reduce the pressure of demolition by treating the Prefect's wife's illness.

Therefore, he revealed the information that the Prefect's wife was ill to Yuzao Huimei.

Yuzao Huimei understood and promised to do her best to ensure the smooth progress of the project.

Finally, the two reached a tacit understanding and prepared to overcome the difficulties in front of them together.

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Yicheng proudly patted his thigh and thought to himself: "No matter who you are, Miao Street must be demolished this time."

On the other side, Huimei hung up the phone and quickly ordered Jiulangzi to investigate the wife of Prefect Zhou Yuanli.

At the same time, outside Zhongcaotang, Lin Yu's high school classmate Zhou Min brought his mother to seek help.

Facing the fierce bodyguards at the door, Zhou Min timidly shouted forward: "Excuse me, is Lin Yu here? I am his high school classmate Zhou Min, I have something to ask him for help..."

Zhongcaotang has been full of people recently: Ma family father and son, Hu brothers of Tianrun Wanjia, Elder Zheng Zemin, and Wang Haisheng who was recuperating here before.

Although Hua Weixin is over fifty, he is well-maintained, looks like he is in his early thirties, and is not old. Wu Shuping felt that this place had almost become a nursing home.

Hearing the shouting outside, Wu Shuping got up and walked to the door and asked: "Young man, what do you want Lin Yu for?"

Zhou Min bowed to her politely and said: "My mother has a strange illness. I have seen many doctors for two years but couldn't cure it. I hope to ask Lin Yu to help take a look."

Looking at the thin middle-aged woman in front of her, Wu Shuping welcomed them into the house without saying a word.

At this time, a group of old people walked out of the backyard, discussing going to Miao Street for a stroll.

While waiting for Lin Yu to refine pills, they also felt bored, but didn't dare to leave too far.

Although they had walked Miao Street several times, they still enjoyed it.

Seeing Zhou Min and his mother, Ma Yueshang stopped and felt that Zhou Min looked familiar.

So he asked: "Young man, what is your name?"

Zhou Min replied respectfully: "Hello, Grandpa, my name is Zhou Min."

Hearing this name, Ma Yuanshan was refreshed and asked: "Who is Zhou Yuanli to you?"

"He is my father." Zhou Min said seriously. After learning the truth, Ma Yueshang signaled to Ma Yuanfeng, and the others continued to stroll in Miao Street.

Ma Yuanfeng immediately understood the reason for the matter. After all, Zhou Yuanli is not only Ma Yueshang's proud student, but also the Prefect of this province.

And they are exactly the targets that Yuzao Huimei asked Jiulangzi to find.

Therefore, Ma Yuanfeng said to Wu Shuping: "Immortal Master, please do your best, please."

Wu Shuping heard the implication and understood that this was to ask her to treat this pair of mother and son for free.

"I understand." Wu Shuping responded calmly, and then took Zhou Min and his mother to the backyard.

However, this mother's illness was very rare and tricky, which made Wu Shuping feel very embarrassed.

After giving the mother initial acupuncture, Wu Shuping called Zhou Min outside, ready to learn more about the situation.

"Does your mother always feel cold, but can't find the cause after going to the hospital for examination?" When Zhou Min heard this sentence, a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes, "Yes, can you cure her?"

Wu Shuping shook her head gently and said helplessly: "I can't cure this illness alone. I need to wait for Lin Yu to come back. Only when the two of us join forces will there be hope. And he will be back soon, you might as well stay and wait."

Zhou Min hesitated, "Is this appropriate?"

At this time, Chu Yueyun walked out of the room and said with a smile: "What's inappropriate, I'm just staying here. Little handsome guy, you should also learn my thick skin, don't worry that Lin Yu won't help your mother treat her illness."

Wu Shuping rolled her eyes at Chu Yueyun's words, then arranged a room for Zhou Min and his mother, and returned to the shop to get busy.

Looking at the backyard full of guests, she couldn't help but sigh: "Hey, this Chinese medicine hall is almost becoming an inn."

At the same time, in the underground pill refining room, Lin Yu was checking medical books.
