The sister-in-law was wrong, please forgive her, my black-bellied brother-in-law

She quickly found the medicine book based on her memory.

Only a few of the herbs in the prescription were taught to her by Sister Liu Lan, and she had never heard of the rest.

"System, what kind of medicinal herb is Danshen?"

I remember that the system introduced medicinal herbs to her last time, so the system should know.

Josie wanted to try her luck.

[Replying to the host, the salvia you requested is in the third bamboo basket in front of you. It's in the form of a flake, vermilion on the outside and white on the inside.]

"Well, okay. Where is the chicken blood vine?"

Qiao Xi continued to ask.

[Reporting to the host, the chicken blood vine is in the fifth bamboo weave on your left.]

"Is it the one with the weird-looking outer shell?"

Qiao Xi walked to the bamboo weaving mentioned by the system, picked up a piece of chicken blood vine and asked.

[Yes, host, what you are holding is chicken blood vine.]

"Are there any instruments of weighing in this house?"

She could only weigh it roughly with her hands, but things like medicine required precision.

[Replying to the host, there is a weighing tool at the bottom of the medicine book. If the host wants to refine pills, there are also tools in the room.]

"Refine pills? Tools?"

Qiao Xi was very surprised to hear what the system said.

Is this room so advanced? But she didn't seem to see any machines.

Because even in her incredibly advanced world, making medicine requires large machines.

Is there some hidden place in the room that she hasn't seen?

Before Qiao Xi could search, the system's voice came:

[Reporting to the host, the tool for refining pills is behind the door. It's quite small, so you may not have noticed it.]

Behind the door? Qiao Xi walked behind the door with a puzzled look on her face.

But there was no machine behind the door, only something like a boiler.

"System, is this what you are talking about?"

Qiao Xi pointed at the strange thing and asked the system uncertainly.

[Exactly. Host, you only need to place the weighed herbs according to the prescription, then add the required amount of water, light the ignition, and wait. If the amount is small, it will be refined quickly.]

"it is good!"

Qiao Xi was still skeptical about how such a thing could have such advanced functions, but she thought she could give it a try since she had nothing to lose anyway.

She quickly weighed the herbs and threw them into the alchemy furnace.

The system said it could be used to refine pills, so let's just call it a pill furnace for now.

Then he went outside the house to fetch water from the stream.

Everything is ready, just waiting for the fire.

Qiao Xi scanned the area around the furnace and quickly found the ignition source, even a tinderbox. She was a little surprised by how complete the space was, as if someone had placed it there specifically.

"System, I only put in enough for three days. How long will it take to make the pills?"

[Host, please wait. The system is calculating the time... The time has been calculated. Replying to the host, it will take approximately half an hour to refine the pill.]

Half an hour?

That's one hour.

The situation outside was complicated and she couldn't stay in the space for an hour.

Thinking of this, Qiao Xi hurriedly said, "Okay, I'll find a way to get in half an hour later."

As she spoke, she closed her eyes and silently recited. When she opened her eyes again, she was already out of the space and in the tent.

Looking at Nie Guizhou who was still unconscious on the ground, Qiao Xi breathed a sigh of relief.

But the situation outside the tent seemed much more chaotic than before.

She really wanted to know what was happening outside.

As she thought about it, Qiao Xi couldn't suppress her curiosity, so she tiptoed to the door of the tent, pulled aside the curtain a little and looked out.

Excuse!

It's really a mess outside.

The men in black from the Nie family and the soldiers led by the official above were fighting fiercely. There were corpses of the men in black and the soldiers on the ground.

It seemed that both sides suffered casualties, but she looked around and did not see Xu Yi.

Xu Yi was injured. If he fought with someone so fiercely, would his arm be able to withstand it?

Thinking of this, Qiao Xi frowned and couldn't help but start to worry.

She looked at Nie Guizhou who was still unconscious behind her, then looked at the situation outside, gritted her teeth, and crawled out of the tent.

But it was too chaotic outside. She had to dodge those blind swords and look for Xu Yi among so many people. It was really difficult.

In such a small space, she moved forward step by step.

Fortunately, hard work pays off. When she dodged the falling body of a man in black, she finally saw Xu Yi.

At this moment, there were three men in black in front of Xu Yi. The key point was that those men in black were holding weapons in their hands, while Xu Yi only had a broken gun in his hand.

Qiao Xi's eyes were fixed on Xu Yi's arm.

Just now there were some spots on his sleeves that were not stained by blood, but now, his sleeves were completely covered in blood.

She was only momentarily distracted when Xu Yi started fighting with the three men in black.

Those three men in black obviously wanted to kill Xu Yi.

Seeing that Xu Yi was having a hard time dealing with the three men in black, Qiao Qian quickly lowered her head to look for weapons and wanted to go up and help.

Fortunately, the dead man in black had a weapon in his hand.

Even though she doesn't know how to use it, it's better than using her fists to fight against other people's swords.

Qiao Xi picked up the knife and quietly moved behind the man in black, intending to launch a sneak attack.

But as soon as she approached, she was discovered by one of the men in black.

Soon, the other two men in black and Xu Yi also discovered her.

However, Xu Yi just frowned and didn't say anything.

The man in black saw that she was a woman and did not take it seriously. He only assigned one person to deal with her.

And this is exactly the effect Qiao Xi wanted.

She pretended to be afraid and only defended but did not attack.

Once she saw the black-clad man's weak spot, she struck him in the vital spot with lightning speed.

The man in black looked down at the blood gushing out of his abdomen, then raised his head in disbelief. However, Qiao Xi did not miss the opportunity and quickly stabbed the man in black in the neck again.

Almost instantly, blood spurted out from the man in black's neck, and he fell to the ground with a plop, without a sound.

Hearing the noise, the men in black who were besieging Xu Yi hurried over.

Taking advantage of the two men in black being distracted, Xu Yi quickly dealt with one of them.

Now it is two people against one man in black, and the situation has been reversed.

"Didn't I tell you to watch over Nie Guizhou? Why did you run out?"

Xu Yi looked at the man in black in front of him with wariness, but his words were directed to Qiao Xi.

Qiao Xi glanced at his arm and immediately whispered back, "I'm worried about the injury on your arm and want to come out to help."

"No need. Go back to the tent and keep an eye on Nie Guizhou. Don't let anyone rescue him."

As he spoke, he took the time to look around, as if looking for something.

Qiao Xi was beside him and naturally noticed his movements. She couldn't help but ask, "What are you looking for?"

Xu Yi glanced at her and replied directly: "Have you seen Nie Shufeng?"

Qiao Xi shook her head: "No."

"Hurry back and look after Nie Guizhou. Be careful of Nie Shufeng."

This Nie Shufeng is really cunning, but with his son Nie Guizhou around, I don’t believe he will never show up.

Hearing this, Qiao Xi understood what he meant.

If Nie Shufeng didn't catch it, it would be a big hidden danger.

There was only one man in black at the moment, so Xu Yi should be able to handle it. So he said quickly, "I'll go back and look after Nie Guizhou."

After saying that, she planned to go back to the tent.

Seeing that there were fewer and fewer men in black left on the field, Qiao Xi relaxed her vigilance a little.

"careful!"

But she had just taken a few steps when she suddenly heard a scream from behind her. Qiao Xi subconsciously turned her head to look, but she saw a thrilling scene.
