Chapter 372: The cola flavor overpowers the medicine

"Really giving it to me? This is five hundred milliliters of cola, Junior Brother!"

Song Yun couldn't believe it, so he could only ask Ye Fan for confirmation again.

After receiving Ye Fan's affirmative reply, Song Yun immediately put on a solemn expression and said:

"Your generosity, Junior Brother, I'll note it down first! Tell me, what do you want me to do?"

Ye Fan said:

"I hope Senior Brother can help me refine fifty Yellow Dragon Pills, also needed within three days. I want you to add cola when refining the pills. I don't know how much cola you usually put in per furnace when refining medicine."

Song Yun thought for a moment and replied:

"To be honest, I only add cola when refining my own pills; usually one drop per furnace is enough."

Ye Fan thought, it turned out Senior Brother Song uses even less than he does.

But that makes sense—Senior Brother Song doesn't have much cola, so he probably doesn't know it can nourish spirit grass; naturally he uses it sparingly.

Ye Fan thought and then said:

"For these fifty Yellow Dragon Pills, please put ten drops of cola per furnace, Senior Brother. If you agree, this bottle of cola is yours."

Song Yun agreed without hesitation—he's not stupid; even if he had to add twenty drops per furnace, it would still be a sure profit.

The medicinal materials for refining Yellow Dragon Pills aren't precious; he has plenty in his storage bag, but cola is a rare commodity.

Even though the family obtained two thousand milliliters of cola this time, the amount actually allocated to him is only a few milliliters.

"Don't worry, Junior Brother, Senior Brother will follow your request exactly—no cutting corners!"

The Song family and Song Yun's side had reached an agreement; after seeing Song Yun off, Ye Fan noticed he had saved seven bottles of cola for the Immortal Sister, felt a surge of joy, and hurried to find Lin Meng to claim credit.

"Immortal Sister, the matter of the pills is settled; Senior Brother Song Yun promises to deliver all the pills in three days."

"By the way, buying the pills only cost four bottles of cola; I took the initiative to give Senior Brother Song one bottle to help him refine Yellow Dragon Pills, leaving seven bottles of cola!"

Lin Meng nearly fainted upon hearing that.

Even if five thousand Aperture-penetrating Pills were worthless, they'd still have to be refined batch after batch by an alchemist—just four bottles of cola to send them off?

"This time, the Song family took the initiative to ask for two thousand milliliters, but Senior Brother Song originally didn't dare to speak up, thinking it was too much."

"Exactly! Immortal Sister, I've discovered a wonderful use for cola today—your cola in this realm is practically divine water!"

Ye Fan spoke excitedly, then revealed another piece of news that shocked Lin Meng.

He said: "Cola can stimulate the growth of spirit medicine, increasing its age and quality!"

"You don't know, but I today tested planting a few stalks of Yellow Dragon Grass; with just a little cola, the spirit grass's quality instantly reaches supreme grade, and its age can be boosted to three hundred years—though further growth is impossible."

Lin Meng listened, stunned, and cola proved useful again.

She smoothed her thoughts, feeling increasingly envious.

If cola in her hands could also become the spirit water Ye Fan spoke of, that would be great—what a pity!

Thinking this, Lin Meng grew a bit angry, gulped a big mouthful of the cola at hand, then poured the remaining half-bottle into the money tree's soil.

"Cola, cola, give the sister some spirit—please let the money tree mutate!"

Lin Meng's idea naturally turned into wishful thinking; cola is still just cola, and it's only of great use on the Heavenly Gang Continent.

Never mind—being able to make Ye Fan's hands bloom is not bad either; Lin Meng quickly came up with an idea.

She said:

"In that case, find a suitable place, plant the batch of medicinal materials Song Yun gave me, irrigate them all with cola on my behalf, then harvest them into the spatial storage—be careful not to damage the roots when picking. Can you do that?"

Ye Fan naturally wouldn't refuse upon hearing that, full of determination.

"Immortal Sister, rest assured—I guarantee I'll complete the task!"

Lin Meng thought a moment and then said:

"If the Song family only takes four bottles of cola, let them have it; keep the remaining seven bottles for yourself. From now on, whether refining pills or cultivating spirit grass, don't be stingy with the cola—pills are for consumption, spirit grass is grown for personal use, so you must be good to yourself."

Upon hearing this, Ye Fan couldn't help but feel moved again; the Immortal Sister repeatedly stressed not to be sparing—she really is wonderful.

"Immortal Sister, rest assured—I know this. From now on, for any pills I eat myself or give to you, I'll add plenty of cola, without holding back."

"That's right—if you do that, I'll give you several more boxes of cola for you to use as you see fit."

She must make cola shine and shine on the Heavenly Gang Continent, working hard for her!

Ye Fan has already begun preparing to plant herbs, watering them for Lin Meng.

His hands never stopped working; Ye Fan also reported other matters to Lin Meng on the side.

"Immortal Sister, do you know? The last time the Song Family bought those Foundation Establishment Pills, their clan couldn't figure anything out; an elder with broad experience said your Foundation Establishment Pill uses a special technique seal that hides the true formula—our sect also has experts who studied it, but they saw nothing either."

"Immortal Sister, your Foundation Establishment Pill is truly amazing!"

Lin Meng heard this and was dumbfounded—do cultivators really conjure up such ideas? And a secret technique seal? That's far-fetched.

If it were braised eggs, there really would be a secret recipe to make them fragrant and tasty.

Ye Fan also said:

"The Song Family couldn't figure out the pill formula, so they seem to have given up for now, but Senior Brother Song's grandfather left one pill, enshrined at the highest level of the family's Treasure Pavilion; supposedly it's to be kept until a talented descendant of the Song Family comes to crack it."

Lin Meng heard this and was shocked to the point of being struck dumb.

"Boiled eggs spoil after a few days—are they really sure they want to enshrine it?"

"If left untreated, it will definitely go bad; then the Treasure Pavilion will reek of rotten eggs—just thinking about it is exciting……

Lin Meng didn't dare to expose it, so she could only let this beautiful misunderstanding continue forever.

She thought a moment and then said:

"Let the Song Family do as they wish; this Foundation Establishment Pill is actually my secret technique, impossible to replicate. If there were a way, I would have taught you long ago—the Song Family is destined to be disappointed."

Upon hearing this, Ye Fan's eyes flashed—he realized it was the Immortal Sister's secret technique, which others cannot learn.

Should he tell Senior Brother Song?

Forget it—even if he told them, the Song Family people would likely not give up researching easily; let them keep it as a family heirloom to pass down.

The egg-boiling matter surprised Lin Meng; she hadn't expected they'd all been sent to the Song family's treasure vault.

After ordering several cases of cola and sending them into her space, she waited for the medicinal pills to arrive.

When the three-day period ended, Song Yun indeed arrived on time to make the delivery.

Five thousand Opening Aperture Pills, plus one hundred each of the other common pills, and additionally fifty Yellow Dragon Pills personally refined by Song Yun—each round and plump, exuding a strong medicinal aroma.

"Junior brother, don't worry—I followed your instructions and added a full ten drops of cola to each batch of Yellow Dragon Pills, no cutting corners!"

Ye Fan opened the porcelain bottle, took a whiff, and knew at once that Song Yun wasn't lying.

Since the cola's fragrance had already masked the medicinal scent, just smelling it put one at ease~.
