Chapter 167 Spiritual Medicine

Seeing that the master was like this again and again, Yang Fan didn't say anything more. He opened the box directly. What appeared in front of him was a vacuum glass cover, and a ginseng could be seen lying inside.

He was a little silenced. This is what the old man wants to treat as a family heirloom? Isn’t it just a ginseng? As for that baby?

How could a person who is so old-fashioned in Yang Shouzheng, not be able to see Sun's thoughts? He immediately turned a straight face and said seriously: "Xiaofan, don't underestimate it. This is not an ordinary ginseng, but an extremely high-quality ginseng that is estimated to be more than 3,400 years old! This is something I got by chance decades ago, and I have always treasured it. It is said that this is a good thing that can prolong life and prolong life!"

Yang Fan politely refused: "You should eat something that prolongs life. I heard that you were seriously ill last time, why didn't you decoct it and drink it?"

Yang Shouzheng shook his head: "The nutritionists in the hospital think that the effect is not great. Some even think that it is just dried radish and ordinary ginseng. How can old ginseng from a few years be destroyed? They have to take it for testing and analysis, and then they find that it has no effect. If it expires and deteriorates, it will be a waste!"

From the perspective of modern scientific research, the nutritional value of ginseng is only slightly higher, and it is not as magical as traditional medicine evaluation. From an economic perspective, in the past, the land was wide and the people were small. To find ginseng in the deep mountains and forests, it often consumed a lot of manpower and time, and even had great risks. The rate of return was extremely low. Scarcity was precious. Ginseng became rare because it was rare, so it became expensive and began to spread.

There are too many people now, and wild ginseng has been dug up almost all, unless there may be some extremely steep or inconspicuous places. Most of the ones sold are artificially grown, so the price will not be so outrageous. However, as a precious medicinal material, it is not possible to grow anywhere but is more expensive than ordinary medicinal materials, but it is rarely regarded as a life-extending medicine.

Yang Shouzheng saw that he still didn't pay attention to it, so he paused for a moment and thought for a brief moment: "Let's talk about your yesterday! It is said that an old man can easily injure several retired special forces soldiers, isn't that scientific?"

"They have internal skills in their cultivation," Yang Fan said truthfully

"Can your internal strength be measured with scientific instruments before it is released?"

Yang Fan is not very clear: "Maybe not possible"

"That's right, the same goes for drugs!" The old man smiled, "In the past, the chemical components in Chinese herbal medicines could not be detected, and even a little longer, there was no concept of chemistry at all, but now it's OK, but what can't be measured now does not mean that it can't be measured in the future!

Now that one can study its components, it does not mean that the effect of combining them must be simple addition, and when combined with other drugs, it is more likely to change. For example, it can be detected that a person's strength is 100 kilograms. If a person's strength can be knocked down by 100 kilograms, will he only be poured down by one person? If he is faster, more flexible, has learned boxing, and has rich experience, etc., will he play a greater role?"

Yang Shouzheng was very excited and wanted to convince young people's ideas

Yang Fan's heart moved. The internal force could not be measured for the time being, but it did exist. After all, it is also a manifestation of energy. The essence of life that can be absorbed from plants is also a kind of energy. Is it a similar concept?

An immature systematic concept appeared in his mind: all plants and animals have the essence of life, some are strong, and some are weak. The newly transplanted trees in cities have very low energy. Those old trees that have been very vigorous for a few years are absorbed and gathered over time, and have produced more energy. Ordinary people are very weak. Athletes who have undergone special nutritional rations and systematic training are much stronger. Medicines that have achieved success in internal strength are more important in plant energy. The spiritual medicines for a few years are medicines that have gathered more energy, or absorbed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth!

Seeing that he was moved, Yang Shouzheng smiled and said, "Let's take a look! This should be what you want. Don't think I'm an old antique. I have read such things like martial arts novels before. Even if you can't increase your skills, it will be of great benefit to your practice!"

"..." Yang Fan was a little curious and turned on the vacuum glass cover. Sure enough, he immediately felt the faint energy released. Although it was very weak, it was enough to prove that this and ginseng were indeed an old ginseng containing spiritual energy.

He couldn't help but reach out and grabbed it, gently grasped the observation, but in fact he felt it secretly and found that the ginseng had indeed reached several years and contained very strong energy! But unfortunately, when it was dug out, life began to dissipate. After the drying, although a large part of the energy was still retained, a lot of waste was already gone, and without life, its energy could not be retained and gradually disappeared over time

This old ginseng has been dug and dried for decades, and the energy lost in total is at least half of it!

Yang Fan was looking at the ginseng, and Yang Shouzheng looked at Yang Fan! This old ginseng was collected by him for many years, but he had seen it completely. Later, in order to preserve it as a family heirloom, it was sealed in vacuo, but he had experienced it himself. It is a good thing that makes people feel more energetic after smelling it. This is also the reason why he is seriously ill and unwilling to take it out casually, so as not to waste scientific research by modern medical scientists.

Seeing Yang Fan's expression of regret appearing on his face, the old man hurriedly asked, "Do you think there is something wrong?"

Yang Fan shook his head helplessly: "No, this is indeed a good thing, and it can also be regarded as a family heirloom to save lives, but... the effect will be worse than the previous generation!"

"Why?" Yang Shouzheng was shocked

"There are some things in traditional medicine that emphasize the longer the better. Now we all know the concept of shelf life. Some things can be stored for a long time without breaking, but the longer the better, especially for such good things that contain spiritual energy. The longer the time, the more spiritual energy dissipates, just like sandalwood. The aroma will still fade over time. Even if some time spans are longer, the air oxidation, moisture, bacteria, etc. will also be corrosive, so..."

Yang Fan was also very sorry. If the lost ones were completely absorbed by him, he would definitely make his strength greatly!

Yang Shouzheng frowned: "Then you can't keep it! If you are asked to take it at one time, you will definitely not be able to bear it. Take it slowly separately. Is it better to stew the soup and grind it into powder and drink it in water?"

Yang Fan thought I could absorb it directly! But this cannot be said. Grandpa took it out and treasured it, and he didn't want to enjoy it alone, so he said truthfully: "It's not good, it's best to waste it, and it's better to add other medicinal materials and refine it into pills, so that it can maximize its effect. Although the effect is a little worse, the quantity must be much larger."

Yang Shouzheng thought for a while and suddenly said, "Just like the rice wine brewed in the countryside before, it tastes good but not much, and the degree is not high. After adding a little bit of white wine and water to blend and aged, the quantity and degree are both increased."

"It's a pity that refining pills is more troublesome, and it's hard to find those refining pills now..." Yang Fan almost said the pill furnace and the cauldron. "There are still a lot of medicines and experienced pill refiners."

Yang Shouzheng nodded in understanding. Yang Fan's sect must be very powerful. It can be seen from the fact that he can learn so much, but he may not be proficient in everything. He may not be able to refine elixirs. "I can choose this one by one... Haha, this time I was seriously ill, and the genius doctor Chu Zhongtian treated him, he just arranged for his granddaughter to come over. After he brought me the prescription, he cured me and had it effective. After these days of maintenance, he sent a lot of exclusively refined elixirs..."

As he said that, he pointed to a jar on the table next to him: "You can take a look. Of course, for safety reasons, these pills have been tested by high-tech. They don't think they have such a magical effect. They just want to be sure that they can't kill people to eat them. But in fact, the effect is still very good!"

Yang Fan opened it, took out a jade bottle from it, and then poured out a few pills. The smell of medicine immediately showed obvious smell and did not have the legendary fragrance. However, it was not surprising that even the vitamin pills had a strong smell in his heart. He seemed to be observing and smelling it, but he was still secretly sensing it. As a result, he found that the pill also contained a faint energy!

It seems that this elixir is not simple. It not only preserves the medicinal effect, but also preserves the spiritual energy of the medicinal materials to be high and has a more magical effect.

"What do you think?" Yang Shouzheng asked seriously. Before he knew it, he was no longer talking to this grandson as an elder, but as a consulting attitude of the same level, which he himself did not notice.

Yang Fan also became serious: "I want to visit this magic doctor Chu. If he has no idea, he might be able to refine some good medicine!"

Yang Shouzheng thought he was talking about using this old ginseng that had been for several years as the main medicine to refine some elixirs, but he didn't know that Yang Fan wanted to refine some elixirs that only he knew!

In his soul of the fusion, Changfeng, a powerful man from another world, knew how to refine pills. In their world and in that era, this was not a rare thing, but Yang Fan, who was in the modern world, was different. Even though he knew how to refine these pills, he didn't know if there were some drugs on the earth, which effects could be replaced by other drugs, as well as elixir furnaces, control heat, etc.

Just like having the soul of a nuclear physicist, even if he knows how to make a radical bomb, he cannot create it in vain. But if a country is willing to produce materials and equipment to cooperate, it will be different.

"I'll ask Rongsheng to help me answer the call of Dr. Chu later. I'll explain to him personally. If it's really inconvenient, we won't force it. You can take this ginseng in the best way. Now you can put it away!" Yang Shouzheng pointed to the corner. He even made a black bag ready for someone.

Yang Fan did not refuse and put away the old ginseng layer by layer, but the glass cover can only be sealed and cannot be vacuumed now.

"Grandpa suddenly gave me such great benefits. Do you have any tasks to hand over to me?"
