Cold Clouds

Chapter 204: Take One Home

Lin Xiaoxiao would definitely pretend in front of Xu Kui. If she revealed the fact that she didn't care and was even excited, she wouldn't be able to extort much from him.

The disciples she taught were quite leisurely, mainly because she didn't push them too hard.

Leaving the other three aside, Shangguan Kui and Lin Long are getting along pretty well. Kids get along really well quickly. Yesterday they were just chatting casually, but today they are going to the lake to catch fish together... I really don't know what to say about them.

Lin Xiaoxiao picked up the two little fish that were grilling by the lake and said helplessly, "Don't eat, don't eat. It's time to make the elixir."

Shangguan Kui became more cheerful after following Lin Long. At least Lin Xiaoxiao felt that the Shangguan Kui she met at the beginning would definitely not go to the lake to catch loaches...

Well, that's good. Lin Xiaoxiao picked up a loach. She wasn't hungry, nor was she greedy, but since she had already fished it out and bled it, she might as well try making it into a pill. After all, loach is also a medicinal ingredient...

Lin Xiaoxiao studied it for a while and produced a few black pills that smelled like roasted loaches.

It doesn't look very good, I don't know how it tastes and works.

Lin Xiaoxiao looked at the loach pill for a while, and called Shangguan Nanbei, who was slacking off, over.

"Nanbei, look, this is the pill I just made. I'm giving it to you." Lin Xiaoxiao smiled kindly, which startled Shangguan Nanbei.

"For me? Thank you, Master Lin~" Shangguan Nanbei smiled, but when he saw those "mud balls", his smile disappeared, "Master Lin, did I do something wrong?"

Is this thing edible? But it smells so good... Is it some kind of poison that uses the aroma to confuse people?

Scary...

"Ah? This is a reward," Lin Xiaoxiao still maintained a kind smile, "Come, try it."

After a moment of hesitation, Shangguan Nanbei chose to believe Lin Xiaoxiao. Even if there was something wrong with the food, Master Lin would definitely save him! Will save him, right? Should...will?

Shangguan Nanbei took the pill, put one in his mouth, and chewed it for a while. His frown relaxed and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.

It tastes quite good, as if it were a real reward... That's all! I'd rather die with a full stomach! Shangguan Nanbei stuffed all the remaining pills into his mouth, looking like he was enjoying them.

It seems to be non-toxic. Lin Xiaoxiao nodded, very satisfied.

In addition to loach, she also stuffed a bunch of things with similar medicinal effects to loach. Most of them are non-toxic, but they may become toxic during the refining process. However, it seems that there is no problem at the moment.

But the medicinal properties of those herbs will probably take effect soon, right?

Just as Lin Xiaoxiao was thinking this, Shangguan Nanbei's expression gradually changed. He squeezed his legs together, and his face looked unusually red: "Master Lin... I... I..."

"I seem to have to pee urgently..." Shangguan Nanbei's voice was very low, but Lin Xiaoxiao still heard it.

"Hmm~ It seems the drug is taking effect," Lin Xiaoxiao opened a space crack, "Let's go out."

Shangguan Nanbei rushed out at once, while Lin Xiaoxiao stroked her chin and thought.

The herbs she used to make the pill, including loach, are all diuretics. So far, they seem to be effective and the effects are rapid.

That’s right. I can secretly put it into other people’s mouths during a fight, or use it when torturing others.

Lin Xiaoxiao smiled when she thought of this. She is really a little genius!

Shangguan Nanbei returned to Yaowang Valley half an hour later, his face exhausted. He held his alchemy furnace with a dull look in his eyes.

Well, they are all kidney-tonifying herbs, nothing will happen~ After completing the experiment, Lin Xiaoxiao strolled leisurely to Shangguan Pu and looked at him with a scrutinizing look.

Shangguan Puhu's body shook, and he immediately started to make the elixir, looking very busy.

Well, it seems that there is no time. Lin Xiaoxiao looked away with some disappointment and looked at Mo Lun and others. She wanted to test whether this elixir was useful for people with high cultivation.

Everyone saw the miserable condition of Shangguan Nanbei. Mo Lun and other monsters turned their eyes away and did not make contact with Lin Xiaoxiao.

They are all so timid... Lin Xiaoxiao was holding the remaining loach pills and was thinking about whether she should eat a few herself as an experiment, when she saw Mu Yingxiao lying drunk on the side.

"Senior Mu~" Lin Xiaoxiao put on a smiling face and moved closer to Mu Yingxiao, "Come, ah~"

"Ah~" The drunk and dazed Mu Yingxiao opened his mouth without thinking and swallowed all the pills given by Lin Xiaoxiao.

After waiting for two or three minutes, Mu Yingxiao, who was originally slumped in the recliner, gradually sat up. His drunkenness slowly disappeared, and he looked at Lin Xiaoxiao with an unhappy face.

"Lin! Xiao! Xiao!" Mu Yingxiao looked at Lin Xiaoxiao and said with gritted teeth, "Just wait for me!"

Mu Yingxiao disappeared at the spot and came back half a quarter of an hour later. Although his complexion was not good, it was much better than Shangguan Nanbei's.

It seems that people with high cultivation levels do have resistance. Could it be that people with high cultivation levels have fewer impurities in their bodies? Hmm... maybe we can catch some loach monsters and use them as medicine next time? I guess the effect will be very good.

"You'd better give me an explanation." Mu Yingxiao looked at Lin Xiaoxiao indignantly, while Lin Xiaoxiao gave her a thumbs up.

"I'm just trying to sober you up."

"..." Mu Ying smiled without any smile, and reached out to grab Lin Xiaoxiao, "That really is... thank you for your trouble!"

Lin Xiaoxiao and Mu Yingxiao were a little tired after having a lot of fun, so they stopped doing those weird things and just watched Shangguan Kui and the others make the elixir.

Shangguan Lan is able to refine third-grade and lower elixirs that are better than anyone else except Shangguan Kui. It can be seen that she works very hard, but as of now, she cannot refine a seventh-grade elixir before the agreed time.

As a natural elixir body, Shangguan Kui can now refine some fifth-grade elixirs, but he is not as skilled as Shangguan Pu.

Shangguan Pu can now refine some simple sixth-grade elixirs and is the person closest to achieving his goal, but he may be overtaken by Shangguan Kui.

As for Shangguan Nanbei... Ha, that guy, let's not talk about him. Lin Xiaoxiao looked at Shangguan Nanbei's furnace top, which was once again blown up by the furnace explosion, and looked a little helpless.

It's not that she didn't want to teach. She had already taught Shangguan Nanbei step by step how to control the temperature and how to extract the essence from medicinal materials. However, Shangguan Nanbei seemed to be incompatible with alchemy and always ended in failure.

The main problem is that Shangguan Nanbei's fire spiritual roots and thunder spiritual roots are intertwined. Thunder and fire are integrated, the cultivation speed is fast, and the lethality is strong, but it is difficult to use one of them alone. When using fire, it will be accompanied by thunder, and when using thunder, it will be accompanied by fire... He has to solve this problem by himself, Lin Xiaoxiao can't help.

"Sigh..." Lin Xiaoxiao sighed. She stopped looking at Shangguan Nanbei and turned to look at Shangguan Kui who was with Lin Long.

Well, it looks like I can take one home.
