Reborn as a tree, the peerless god is obsessed
Chapter 155: Cracking the Antidote
In the secret garden, Su Xin and Yun Duoduo have already started to get busy.
Preparing an antidote is by no means simple. Besides being familiar with pharmacology, it requires not only sufficient wisdom but also endless patience.
Each medicinal ingredient has its own unique properties and effects. If you are not careful, you may fail.
Su Xin said to Yun Duoduo, "Cut a black pill into eight parts and melt one of them for analysis."
This kind of research and analysis would never succeed in one fell swoop. This division would facilitate subsequent operations. After all, there were only two pills available. If they used up all of them in one or two attempts, it would be detrimental to their continued development.
Yun Duoduo nodded in agreement and carefully cut the pill, not wanting to make any mistakes. Su Xin was absolutely right; she couldn't afford to be careless.
After Yun Duoduo had divided the pills, Su Xin gently picked up a portion and placed it in the alchemy furnace. She summoned the flames, deftly controlling the intensity, allowing the pills to slowly melt. She carefully observed the changes in the heat, constantly adjusting the temperature to ensure a complete melting.
As the pill gradually melted, a faint black gas rose from the alchemy furnace, like a black python, twisting its body and climbing upwards, and soon filled the space between the two people.
The black air seemed to have life, constantly rolling and stirring, and making a hissing sound that made people feel creepy.
They both frowned. This black energy clearly carried a strong toxicity. Fortunately, they were both covered with towels, so they didn't have to worry about being poisoned for the time being.
Yun Duoduo asked anxiously, "Su Xin, how can we neutralize this poison? If we can't resolve it in time, I'm afraid there will be big trouble!"
Su Xin didn't panic. After a moment's contemplation, she calmly replied, "Don't worry. We need to understand the composition and properties of this poison so we can formulate a targeted antidote. Acting blindly now might actually lead to failure."
After saying this, she stared at the black energy, her eyes revealing determination and concentration.
So, the two began to carefully observe and analyze the black gas, trying to find out the secrets within. They approached the black gas cautiously and used special tools to collect some samples for research.
After some effort, they finally discovered that the poison mainly came from a rare and extremely toxic herb called "Soul-Locking Flower".
The Soul-Locking Flower, as its name suggests, is poisonous enough to lock a person's soul and trap them in endless suffering. This herb is extremely rare, and ordinary people cannot even get their hands on it, let alone use it to refine pills.
Su Xin frowned, thinking to herself, "Who on earth could have gotten this rare Soul-Locking Flower and used it to make pills? There must be some unspeakable secret behind this."
This flower grows in extremely shady places, blooms in summer, and comes in red, purple or white.
Once people start taking drugs, they can easily become addicted, which can cause irreparable damage to the body and even cause death.
Its toxicity is so strong that it is almost impossible to cure it.
But Su Xin had read about it in the ancient books of the Heavenly Palace and knew that there was a herb called "Huanlingcao" that could effectively neutralize the toxicity of the Soul-Locking Flower.
"Returning the Spiritual Herb..." Yun Duoduo muttered to herself, "If I remember correctly, you picked one last time on the mountain where you fought the Black Dragon, right? Can it really unlock the poison of the Soul Flower?"
Su Xin nodded and said confidently, "According to the description in ancient books, Huanling Grass has a very yang energy that can restrain all evil things. It would be difficult to find it specifically, but the one I planted in the secret garden has already grown into a large patch."
Yun Duoduo was a little excited, "Okay, that's great!"
Unexpectedly, Su Xin would come across such a rare and precious herb as the Holy Spirit Grass. It seemed that even the heavens were on their side!
As the investigation deepened inside and outside Fucheng, Xueyao and others gradually discovered that the distribution channels of these pills were extremely complicated and seemed to involve multiple forces inside and outside Fucheng.
Inside the city, Renhu and Qingyi crisscrossed the streets and alleys, carefully observing every possible clue. They spared no detail, searching for the pills' distribution channels and possible sales and manufacturing locations.
They visited one pharmacy and shop after another, big and small, eagerly collecting a large amount of clues.
Although the specific manufacturing base has not yet been found, it has been determined that these pills do not come from regular channels.
Turning their gaze towards the outskirts of Fucheng, Xueyu and Xiaolin'er resolutely advanced towards the eastern region. They fully utilized their keen perception to try to trace the source of the pills and the manufacturing den.
He cut through thorns and crossed mountains and rivers, facing numerous obstacles without fear, just to get to the bottom of the incident.
They tracked the pills and found that their route seemed to be connected to a secret base east of Fucheng, a location so hidden that it was difficult for ordinary people to detect.
Xueyao and Baoling were responsible for investigating the area west of Fucheng. They traveled along the mountain path, searching for clues along the way. Although Baoling's cultivation was not as advanced as Xueyao's, he possessed unique insights into the identification and processing of medicinal herbs.
"Master, look here." Bao Ling pointed to a trace on the mountain road and said, "This seems to be left by some kind of transportation."
Xue Yao walked closer to observe and nodded, "Indeed, judging by the depth and width of the marks, it should be a larger carriage."
The two continued on their way, carefully searching for other possible clues along the way. Suddenly, Bao Ling stopped and frowned.
"What's wrong?" Xue Yao asked.
"I smell a strange smell," Bowring said. "Like some kind of herbal odor, but I've never smelled anything like it before."
Xueyao sniffed around and smelled the same scent. "It seems to be coming from the front. Let's go check it out."
The two followed the smell and came to a small wooden house hidden in the woods. The door of the wooden house was half-open, and a faint light shone from inside.
"This might be the place we're looking for." Xue Yao said softly.
Bao Ling nodded and carefully pushed the door open. The scene inside shocked them. The room was filled with herbs and pills, and several people were lying on the ground, looking listless.
"These people..." Xue Yao thought of something.
"They look like victims of these pills," Bowring said, crouching down to carefully observe the symptoms of one of them.
"We must find the antidote as soon as possible, otherwise their lives will be in danger." Xue Yao said anxiously.
"But where do we start looking?" Baoling asked.
Xueyao pondered for a moment, her consciousness entering the secret garden, just in time to hear Yun Duoduo's cheers. She picked some soul-returning herbs, had Bao Ling roll them into pills, and gave them to the others.
