Looking for you in reincarnation
Chapter 48: Searching for and Refining Medicine
At this moment, the ink on her wrist rubbed against the back of her hand. She looked down and thought that it was probably because she was hungry.
She rummaged through her bag, took out a quail egg and fed it to the dog.
It was very well-behaved. It lay quietly on the grass, eating egg liquid, and never caused her any trouble.
Ning Ji on the side couldn't help but look at it again. He had never seen such an obedient snake.
These days, it has been hiding in her wrist, rarely showing its head, which made him almost ignore this little thing. Thinking about it, it might have been unnecessary to give her a dagger for self-defense.
If he was not mistaken, this little thing was quite poisonous. If she was really in danger, it would not be so obedient.
and……
Ning Ji looked at Si He. She had many secrets, but she still had the ability to protect herself.
"Momo, go play for a while after you finish eating."
She touched its body and said something to it with a smile. It seemed to understand, turned its head, looked at her, and then continued eating.
She then looked away and looked at the roasted rabbit beside her. The heat had dissipated a little. "Cousin, is it ready to eat?"
She looked a little impatient, like a real greedy cat.
Helplessly, he could only tear off a rabbit leg, put it on a clean leaf, and handed it to her, "Eat it."
"Thank you, cousin."
She happily took it, blew on it to get some hot air, and then took a bite. It tasted amazing.
"Cousin, if you change your career to become a chef in the future, your business will definitely be booming!"
She wasn't flattering him, she really thought his cooking skills were excellent, especially barbecue!
Ning Ji raised the corner of his mouth slightly, said nothing, and just ate the barbecue silently.
After eating the egg liquid, Momo on the grass crawled to the stream not far away, seemingly playing or washing himself.
Si He glanced at it and ignored it.
After eating and drinking their fill, the two continued searching for herbs while it was still early. Only when they had filled a large basket did they set off.
This time, Ning Ji planned to refine a batch of detoxification pills with a modified formula. He could only find common herbs here, but some of the precious herbs he needed were not available. He had to purchase them from the pharmacy and then mix and refine them, so it would be fine as long as he collected enough.
Now that Si He was slowly getting used to riding a horse, Ning Ji sped up a little bit, letting the horse trot slowly, but he still held the reins in front.
The two horses were cantering, one in front and one behind, without any bumps and running smoothly.
An hour later, just before sunset, we arrived at Ximu City.
After passing Ximu City, it is Gucheng. According to the current speed of the horses, it will take another half day's walk tomorrow to reach Gucheng.
So tonight I can only rest in Ximu City and stay overnight.
Ximu City is a small city. Most of the residents here make a living by selling medicinal herbs and game. There are many medicine shops on the streets with a wide range of products. Merchants from other cities often like to come here to purchase medicinal herbs.
After entering the city, the two found an inn and booked two rooms. Ning Ji carried the medicine basket and went to the pharmacy to process the medicinal materials. He often came to Ximu City, so he was quite familiar with this place. He had refined medicines here many times before and would definitely return to Gucheng to refine them.
Si He did not follow, but went into the guest room to wash up and rest, and ate the leftover barbecue in the evening.
The next day, Ning Ji said he wanted to stay here for another day because the herbs had not been refined yet. Si He had no objection and naturally did what he said. She just followed him to learn and occasionally helped out.
Since she had nothing to do, she followed him to the pharmacy and watched him make medicine.
Jimintang is a large-scale pharmacy in Ximu City. It often cooperates with Ning Ji. He also sells the medicines he refines to this pharmacy, which is mutually beneficial.
Si He followed Ning Ji into the backyard of the drugstore. There were many drug refining and boiling medicine pharmacies in the backyard with complete facilities.
Ning Ji temporarily rented a small pharmacy here because the preparation of some medicines requires a variety of utensils and tools.
Only then did Si He realize that the pharmacy here also had such a rental service.
When Si He walked into the pharmacy and saw all the equipment inside, she was secretly surprised. It really looked like a small laboratory. Some of the instruments were similar to those in her previous world.
There was only one person from Ning in the pharmacy, and he did not ask the medicine boy from the drugstore to help. Many customers who rented the pharmacy generally did not use outsiders to prevent the prescriptions from being leaked.
Si He stood quietly by the side, watching Ning Ji work. When she was tired, she would occasionally sit on the chair next to him, but she still watched him make medicine.
Now, the more she watched, the more she found this alchemy process quite interesting.
Ning Ji did not hide anything from her. Whenever she had questions out of curiosity, he would answer them. She listened carefully, looked at everything, and followed his lead with full concentration.
At the end of the day, she had to say that he was really a very talented person and a good master. Si He once again sighed in her heart that she was lucky to have met him, and that she had learned a lot of useful things.
It is very difficult for ordinary people to learn the skill of refining medicine, especially in this feudal dynasty, where the master-disciple relationship is particularly important.
It was rare for him to teach her without reservation, so she was very grateful.
It was almost evening when Ning Ji finished preparing the medicine. There were five bottles of improved detoxification pills in total. He sold three bottles to the pharmacy and kept two for himself.
Just from those three bottles of pills, he earned a lot of silver, which made Si He's eyes sparkle. It turned out that refining medicine made money!
After leaving the pharmacy, the two of them went to the noodle shop opposite and ordered a bowl of noodles.
"Cousin, are we going to look for medicine tomorrow?"
She was now in high spirits, and after sitting down, she asked him about his schedule for tomorrow.
"Yeah." He responded and handed her a bag of silver. It was the silver he had earned from selling medicine just now. He gave her half of it.
Seeing this, Si He quickly refused, "I can't accept this money. I didn't help at all, and I still have a lot of money left from the money you gave me before. I'll be very satisfied if you are willing to teach me."
And now, whether it is food, accommodation, or the two horses, they are all paid for by him. If she still takes his money, she will feel unworthy of it.
Seeing that he still hadn't taken it back, she said again: "If I'm short of money, I'll ask you again, cousin, please take it back."
To be honest, although she wanted to make money, she had to earn it based on her own abilities. The main reason she wanted to stay with him was that she wanted to learn something.
She insisted on not accepting it, so Ning Ji took back the good money bag and said, "Okay."
Only then did Si He smile.
After dinner, the two walked towards the inn, but when they passed the intersection, they saw many people stopping to look at the notice on the bulletin board and talking about it.
Si He glanced at it casually, but when she saw a few familiar words, she couldn't help but stop and walk closer to read them carefully.
