Chapter 50 Reagents
"It seems that we still have to use the old method, but it takes a lot of effort."

Huaying never dared to swallow it hastily again, the lesson from the past is there, she is not a fool who is stupid, how can she make the mistake she made again.

After a short while.

Huaying has the tools ready.

A large vat filled with water, a dozen basins made of bamboo, a ladle, a stone scoop, and some general-purpose detoxifying herbs were laid out on the ground.

These things were all brought in by her from the outside. When she used to take various herbs, she used these tools a lot.

Everything is ready, the next step is to test step by step.

Huaying first cut off a small piece of the star grass stem and leaf with a knife, as thin as a cicada's wing, and then put it in a stone ladle and mashed it into a paste.

Due to the fact that it was too thin, the stems and leaves were crushed within two strokes, and almost all of them were stuck on the stone pestle, as if covered with a thin layer of mucus.

After that, Huaying put the lower half of the stone pestle into the big water tank and stirred it gently. The stone pestle is too short to stir the water, and the residue of stems and leaves on the stone pestle was all washed into the big tank. Finally, she changed a long wooden stick to stir the water in the tank.

Round and round, back and forth, until the mucus was all fused into the water, Hua Ying stopped stirring.

Then pick up the water ladle, scoop up a ladle of clear water containing the liquid medicine from the big vat, pour it into the bamboo basin filled with clear water on the side, and stir it for a while.

That's it.

A pot of star herbal potion is finally finished.

Huaying worked for a long time, and it was time to verify the results. She picked up the wooden basin, took a deep breath, and finally drank the basin of potion with her head raised.

After this complicated operation, she is not afraid even if the star grass is poisonous.After all, even the most poisonous poison in the world cannot be much more toxic after being mixed with water hundreds of times stronger.

What's more, Huaying was very cautious this time. For the sake of safety, she only took an extremely small part of a small stem and leaf of the star grass.

However, although she was cautious in doing so, after drinking the potion, she felt that she didn't taste much, and her mouth was so pale that she just drank a basin of water instead of potion.

"belch."

After hiccupping, she inspected her body first, and found that there was no sign of poisoning, Huaying sat cross-legged on the spot, and began to practice the exercises silently.

She didn't know whether it was an illusion or the potion started to take effect. After practicing for a while, she felt that her cultivation speed seemed to speed up a bit. Although it was very weak, it seemed to have a certain effect.

"Try again."

Just one test result is not enough to explain, Huaying stopped the exercises and continued to repeat the steps just now.

However, this time she chose a water basin that was only half filled with clean water, followed the other steps in the same way, and poured water into her belly again.

Since the amount of water has been reduced by half, the amount of medicine this time is fully double that of the first time.

Although the amount of medicine has increased, it still tastes like water after drinking it, without any medicine smell.

After another training session, Huaying gradually noticed some obvious differences in her body.

The speed of cultivation is speeding up, indeed it is speeding up, although it is not as good as the superimposed effect of yellow ginseng and Qingzhi leaves, but it has indeed improved.

"The God of Star Grass."

Huaying exclaimed in her heart, she was overjoyed, and she stopped her cultivation only after the speed-up exercises completely consumed the weak medicinal power in her body.

She suppressed the excitement in her heart and repeated the previous steps step by step.

Even if hope is right in front of her eyes, Huaying is extremely careful, not daring to let any restlessness interrupt the progress of her experiment.

Because, the Star Grass at this time is not completely excluded from the list of poisonous weeds.

Poisonous weeds, in a sense, are also medicinal herbs, and they also have medicinal properties, but this so-called medicinal property will produce side effects on people, ranging from causing poisoning to various discomforts in the human body, and causing death in severe cases.

And this kind of toxicity may affect other animals, even insects, and it will no longer be toxic.

Therefore, whether a plant is medicinal or poisonous is completely viewed from a human perspective, and its medicinal properties will not change because it is a medicinal herb or a poisonous herb.

In other words, this so-called 'medicinal property' is just created by Huaying based on her own narrow understanding. It is very simple, and maybe it is not called 'medicinal property' at all in other places.

In fact, the poison contained in the poisonous weed can also be used in cultivation. Huaying has discovered this for a long time, but if the poison of the poisonous weed cannot be solved, then the person will be poisoned to death before the cultivation is completed after ingesting the poisonous weed. It is equal to Bai Xiu.

Of course, there are also some poisonous weeds that are slightly poisonous, low poisonous, and even not lethal after being poisoned. These poisonous weeds can still assist in cultivation.However, the prerequisite is to be able to endure various side effects after taking the poison, and whether the body will suffer from sequelae after years of exposure.

Huaying naturally wouldn't take poisonous weeds for cultivation.

First, she doesn't have to.The combination of yellow ginseng and Qingzhi leaves is the best solution she has carefully selected, and its medicinal effect is far superior to other herbs.

Second, she has not seen any poisonous herb whose medicinal properties can surpass those of ordinary medicinal herbs.Of course, this may also be because she didn't eat enough poisonous weeds, and she was far from reaching the level of Shennong. After all, no one would take the initiative to eat poisonous things to find guilt.

Therefore, after discovering that the star grass had a certain effect on cultivation, Huaying did not relax her vigilance, and continued the next round of experiments with the same rigorous attitude towards poisonous weeds.

In the third test basin, there was less clear water, only a thin layer at the bottom.

Huaying boldly skipped several levels of steps this time. As usual, she might try again with half the amount of water from the previous round.

Then continue to decrease from this until the water basin is no longer used at all, but the water in the water tank is taken directly.

It can be seen that she is still somewhat impatient now.

This is inevitable. Faced with the temptation of the new herb that is about to be discovered, it is very good for her to be able to stay here at her age. There are not many people of her age with her kindness.

Taking the potion for the third time, Huaying only felt that water was slowly sloshing in her stomach, and she was afraid that she would spit out a large piece of water if she retched a little.

However, there is no way to do this. Since the experiment is to be safe, there must be some sacrifices.

Take the potion and sit cross-legged.

It was the third time to run the exercises, and the power of the medicine this time was several times that of the first round. It was only at the beginning of the practice that Huaying clearly felt the difference in her body.

The explosive power of the medicine poured into the meridians crazily like a rushing river.
