Soon, a large fire was blazing in the backyard.
Gu Zhiqi placed the medicinal materials into the pressure cooker, covered it, and set it on the stove.
Yun Sen watched Gu Zhiqi’s vehement operation and was directly stunned.
He had the fortune of witnessing an Ancient Medicine practitioner perform alchemy.
He remembered that there seemed to be a particular order in which to add the herbs, right?
Moreover, who uses a pressure cooker for alchemy?
Yun Sen could never have imagined that the pressure cooker was for refining medicine.
"Miss Gu, just... just like that for refining?"
"Mhm," Gu Zhiqi mn’d indifferently, then grabbed three small stools and set them aside, handing one to Yun Sen and Yun Yan, "Sit."
After that, she took a stool for herself and went to a shady spot away from the fire pit.
It was exactly noon, the blazing sun hanging high in the sky, scorching the earth with no shade to be found near the fire pit.
Feeling the heat, Gu Zhiqi placed her stool under a melon trellis, tucked her legs in, sat down on the small stool, and started looking down at her smartphone.
However unreliable this seemed...
"Miss Gu, the lord showed me the cultivation method for Green Crystal Grass, but I didn’t quite understand it. Could you explain it to me?" Yun Sen asked while tending the fire, looking at Gu Zhiqi sitting under the melon trellis.
Yes, his reason for coming today was precisely to ask Gu Zhiqi about the cultivation method for Green Crystal Grass.
Su Yunling immediately sent the cultivation method to Yun Sen upon obtaining it.
She even sent screenshots of the photos of the room 809 filled with vines of Green Crystal Grass and parts of the chat with Gu Zhiqi pertinent to the Green Crystal Grass.
After viewing the photos of room 809, Yun Sen felt on the spot that his treasure was no longer fragrant.
Then, he immediately started studying the cultivation method.
The awkward moment arrived when Yun Sen couldn’t understand the cultivation method at all.
When he found out that Yun Yan was going to deliver medicinal materials to Gu Zhiqi, Yun Sen didn’t think twice and just followed along.
came the girl’s cool, lazy voice near his ear.
"Add a log to the cultivation method?"
Yun Sen, who was preoccupied with the cultivation methods, thought to himself that the lord’s diagram had not mentioned this at all.
"Put the log in the fire pit," Yun Yan said, looking at the bewildered Yun Sen with an expressionless face.
Upon hearing this, Yun Sen was momentarily stunned, then a second later, "Huh? Oh, oh, add logs, add logs."
He finally reacted, picking up two logs and stuffing them into the fire pit.
She stood up, walked over to the fire pit, lifted Yun Sen off the stool, and then looked at Yun Yan, "Your medicine, you tend the fire yourself."
He was silent for a few seconds, then said expressionlessly, "Alright."
"Miss Gu, I..." Yun Sen hadn’t finished speaking when he was interrupted by Yun Yan.
"Your treasure," followed immediately by a pot of Green Crystal Grass in front of him.
Green Crystal Grass’s nemesis was fire; it couldn’t be too close to it. If it got too close, the Green Crystal Grass would wither.
Since Yun Yan was going to tend the fire, he definitely couldn’t hold Yun Sen’s beloved Green Crystal Grass any longer.
"No, this is not my treasure."
Yun Sen flatly refused, denying that this Green Crystal Grass was his treasure.
His treasure should not be .
His treasure ought to be lush and thriving like the Green Crystal Grass in room 809, then grow unrestrainedly, spreading its vines to the ends of the world.
"If you don’t want it, I’ll throw it into the fire," Yun Yan said expressionlessly.
Upon hearing this, Yun Sen reluctantly took the Green Crystal Grass.
Then, he raised his hand and gently patted the Green Crystal Grass, "After all the love, how could I possibly bear to watch it be thrown into the fire pit by you, a heartless fellow."
