Chapter 2364: They Are Saved

"Phoenix Bone Vine?"

When Ye Chen heard these three words, his brows suddenly wrinkled slightly.

In the records of the "Nine Mysteries Heavenly Sutra," there is indeed this medicinal material called "Phoenix Bone Vine," and the records of this medicinal material in the "Nine Mysteries Heavenly Sutra" are extremely rare. The book calls it a heavenly treasure that can be met but not sought.

The reason why it is called a heavenly treasure is mainly because this thing is not only extremely rare but also extremely easy to die during the growth process.

The vast majority of Phoenix Bone Vines die within three to five years from germination, and those that can persist for more than ten years are already very few. And this kind of plant must grow for more than fifty years before its vines begin to lignify, which is what botanists call lignification.

However, the process of Phoenix Bone Vine lignification is extremely slow. To completely lignify from the inside out, it takes at least a hundred years.

And the strange thing about this thing is that only the completely lignified Phoenix Bone Vine has medicinal value.

But this thing is already rare, and the vast majority cannot live to the age of starting lignification. Even if they live to that age, very few can completely complete lignification, so this thing is much rarer than thousand-year ginseng, thousand-year ganoderma, or even ten-thousand-year giant clam.

Finding a truly meaningful Phoenix Bone Vine is almost equivalent to finding an old man in human society who has lived to be one hundred and twenty, or even one hundred and fifty, and is not paralyzed, blind, or deaf.

The degree of rarity is self-evident.

Moreover, this medicine, Phoenix Bone Vine, also has a more magical place. If there is no spiritual energy as a medium, the medicinal value of this thing, compared with ordinary Chinese herbal medicines, is nothing remarkable.

However, once it is catalyzed by spiritual energy, it can exert its true powerful medicinal effect.

In layman's terms, this thing is like nuclear fuel. Only when neutrons are used to bombard its atomic nucleus can its fission reaction be triggered.

Moreover, this thing is the core medicinal material for several higher-level pills.

With Ye Chen's current strength, what he can refine is one of them, a pill called the Remodeling Pill.

The Remodeling Pill, as the name suggests, is best at remodeling.

Human limbs and organs do not have the ability to remodel and regenerate, unlike geckos, whose broken tails can regenerate.

Once limbs or organs are incomplete, they will be disabled for life, or even lose the ability to act and take care of themselves, or they will die on the spot. No matter how good modern technology is, it is impossible to save them.

Using the Remodeling Pill in this situation, no matter what defects the body has, the Remodeling Pill can make it grow again and return to its original state.

Ito Yuhiko and Tanaka Koichi who had their limbs amputated, and He Yingxiu who had a broken arm, if they had the Remodeling Pill, they could all return to being normal people.

As for Li Yalin, whose internal organs were almost shot into a sieve except for his brain, and who is now frozen into an ice cube by the Fei family's cryogenics center, he could also come back to life if he had the Remodeling Pill.

With this Phoenix Bone Vine, these people can be saved!

And Ye Chen originally thought that this kind of Phoenix Bone Vine, which only appeared in legends, he might not be able to encounter for decades.

But he never imagined that after coming to Mexico, he would encounter it in this underground operating room that didn't see the sun!

Ye Chen was excited, and at the same time, he carefully observed the bracelet the old lady handed him. It looked dark brown, but at least one-third of the patterns were as bright as fresh blood. It was about the thickness of a little finger. It could be seen that this should be a whole lignified vine, which was carefully bent and made into jewelry after being heated by a slow fire.

And this thing looked a bit different from the common chicken blood vine. The main thing was that this Phoenix Bone Vine looked more delicate in texture, almost no pores could be seen on the surface, and its color like fresh blood was extremely bright. The combination of color and material looked like the kind of texture that was very difficult to synthesize artificially.

However, it was difficult for Ye Chen to judge whether this thing was the Phoenix Bone Vine recorded in the "Nine Mysteries Heavenly Sutra" for a while, so he asked subconsciously, "Old lady, are you sure the material of this bracelet is called Phoenix Bone Vine?"

"Sure!" The old lady said with incomparable firmness: "This bracelet was passed down by our ancestors. I heard my grandmother say that our ancestors practiced medicine for more than two hundred years in the Tang Dynasty. Later, during the An Lushan Rebellion, the old, middle-aged, young, and young four generations died, leaving only one six-year-old child. Since then, the ancestral medical skills have been completely lost. But that surviving ancestor inherited this bracelet from his grandfather. At that time, his grandfather told him that this bracelet was made of Phoenix Bone Vine, which was extremely precious, and he must pass it on. So this bracelet has been passed down to this day."

The young man beside him heard this and couldn't help but mutter: "Old lady, I have done some research on plants. Why have I never heard of Phoenix Bone Vine? Besides, your ancestors passed down such a wooden bracelet, where is it precious?"

The old lady shook her head and said blankly: "What is Phoenix Bone Vine, I don't know either. What it looks like in nature, I don't know even more. And where this bracelet is precious, to tell you the truth, I am also confused. This bracelet was passed to me, and I am only responsible for keeping it well, but I don't know what is different about this thing..."

As she spoke, she looked at Ye Chen with some shame and said, "Mr. Ye, I am not deliberately making up stories to lie to you, but you saved my Yao'er, and I am a poor old lady with nothing. So I sent this only thing of some value to you as a thank you. This thing may not be precious, but it was indeed passed down from our Tang Dynasty ancestors to this day. Even if it has no practical value, it can be considered to have some historical value. I hope you don't dislike it..."

Ye Chen nodded slightly, held the Phoenix Bone Vine in his hand, and looked at it very seriously for a long time.

After a long time, Ye Chen suddenly remembered the records in the "Nine Mysteries Heavenly Sutra." Judging the authenticity of Phoenix Bone Vine is actually very simple. Just inject spiritual energy into it, and you can feel the surging medicinal power of the Phoenix Bone Vine stimulated by spiritual energy.

Therefore, Ye Chen injected a little spiritual energy into it.

Ye Chen consciously controlled the injection of spiritual energy, using only a little bit to find out, but he didn't expect that this bit of spiritual energy was like a stone causing a thousand waves. The power inside the bracelet in his hand immediately began to surge!

Ye Chen was shocked in his heart, hurriedly took back all the spiritual energy, and then looked at the old lady and asked seriously, "Old lady, do you really want to give this bracelet to me?"

"Yes." The old lady nodded repeatedly and said gratefully: "Mr. Ye, you saved my Yao'er. If you don't dislike this bracelet, I will give it to you!"

Ye Chen was pleasantly surprised. This bracelet is priceless to him. Refining the Remodeling Pill can save many people. When refining other high-level pills in the future, it might be of greater use!

And what is even more rare is that although Phoenix Bone Vine is extremely rare, it is very economical to use it for refining pills. This kind of medicinal material, which is similar to nuclear fuel, fully reflects what is called small volume and great energy.

If a batch of Remodeling Pills is refined, I am afraid that even one-tenth of it will not be used!

Thinking of this, Ye Chen said to the old lady, "Old lady, this is your family heirloom. I am really ashamed to accept it. How about this, you leave me a contact information, and after I return to the country, I will definitely visit you!" ===== CHAPTER 2365 =====
