Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, after Lu Yuan had finished an hour’s exercise in the morning, he went, as usual, to check on his apprentice.

Upon entering the room, the strong scent of herbs still attacked his senses, but to accompany, a faint aroma of ink also hung in the air.

In the room, Zhou Qing was propped up on the bed, with a small table setup in front of him, strewn with paper and ink, and he was feverishly writing.

Seeing this scene, Lu Yuan frowned, “Xiaoqing, didn’t I tell you? There is no urgency, if there aren’t any ideas now, none will come. Anyway, the Blood Jade Centipede won’t spoil so soon, there’s plenty of time to think.”

Ever since he had given his apprentice a task three days ago, the young man had been thinking about it day and night, pushing aside the needs of sleep or food, completely. He was engrossed in thinking of a solution to the issue of handling the Blood Jade Centipede.

His apprentice’s obsessive state moved Lu Yuan, stirring a feeling of sympathy. He had tried many times to force Zhou Qing to rest.

But with each attempt, Zhou Qing would nod his agreement, only to get busy again as soon as Lu Yuan turned his back.

Simply refusing to listen to advice.

“I’m fine.” Zhou Qing raised his head when he heard Master arrive, flashed a smile over his slightly pale face. Despite the tiredness on his face, his eyes were brimming with excitement. He said excitedly, “Master, I thought of a way.”

“You’ve found a solution.” His apprentice’s words surprised Lu Yuan immensely, immediately forgetting all else.

Zhou Qing nodded vigorously, “Yeah, while researching the Blood Jade Centipede, I’ve flipped through many medical books and remembered a lot of medical skills my father talked about in the past. I finally came up with a feasible solution.

The specific method and procedures, I have written them all down. As long as the Master follows the process mentioned, it shouldn’t be a problem. ‘

Lu Yuan took the paper and began to read it intently.

His gaze quickly skipped over the lines, the contents rapidly emerging in his mind. After looking through a dozen or so pages, he tucked the papers away, his face unable to suppress his excitement.

In order to practice martial arts, Lu Yuan had spent the last two years reading many of medical books, so he had a broad enough understanding of herbal medicine.

So it was obvious at this moment that the method Zhou Qing had come up with was absolutely feasible.

His apprentice had proposed such a feasible plan in just three days, which brought Lu Yuan immense surprise.

“Good, I read your solution, it’s excellent.

Looking at his apprentice, Lu Yuan spared no praise, “Xiaoqing, your medical skill has certainly inherited the real merits of Dr Zhou. In a few years, I’m sure you can completely inherit your family medical skills. ”

Zhou Qing blushed a little at the praise, “Not yet, I just want to help Master.

And my medical skills are still far from my father’s, I still have much to learn.”

Lu Yuan encouraged, “Indeed, you should continue to learn. Learning medical skills is indeed beneficial to martial arts. In the future, in terms of medical skills, I will need your help.”

Jianghu is dangerous, and people are unpredictable.

An apprentice like Zhou Qing, a trustworthy medical expert, is undoubtedly extremely important to Lu Yuan. Having such a person around not only helps in healing injuries or researching secret medicine but also lends significant support.

Like now.

If it weren’t for Zhou Qing, even if he had the Blood Jade Centipede in his hands, without a proper way of using it, he could only use it like an incense. It wouldn’t be as beneficial as it is now.

Responding to his master’s motivation, Zhou Qing nodded solemnly and said,

“I will strive to learn medical skills.”

He actually will study medicine diligently.

Not only to help his master, but also for himself to practice martial arts, and more importantly, to carry on the family tradition. ‘The medical skills of the Zhou family cannot end in my hands.’

That’s what Zhou Qing thought in his heart.

With the method to handle the Blood Jade Centipede in hand, Lu Yuan no longer disturbed his apprentice’s rest. After procuring all the pens, inks, papers, and inkstones, he let Zhou Qing rest properly.

Returning to his room, Lu Yuan took out the medicine-making process that his apprentice had compiled and started reading it meticulously.

The method Zhou Qing used to handle the Blood Jade Centipede is divided into two steps.

The first step is detoxification.

The method of detoxification is a refinement method secretly passed down in the Zhou family, which can refine the poison of the Blood Jade Centipede, rendering it harmless.

The specific process is written in the pages, detailing which steps and herbs to use. Lu Yuan just had to follow these steps.

The second step is to neutralize medicinal properties.

As the name suggests, it involves a variety of medicine formulations, to neutralize and optimize the medicinal effect of the Blood Jade Centipede, and bring it to its most effective state.

About this aspect, Zhou Qing had already formulated a complete prescription after researching the properties of Blood Jade Centipede for three days.

As long as the medicine is configured and processed according to this prescription, the centipede can be made into an important medicine.

Even the rare herbs required in the prescription, Zhou Qing had them in place from the inventory of his family’s clinic. Lu Yuan could just take them and use it.

This showed Zhou Qing’s initial plan and intentions from the start.

At this, Lu Yuan was moved again, secretly making up his mind to train his apprentice well, to make him a top martial arts master within Jianghu. Only in this way can he repay his apprentice’s filial piety.

With the foolproof guide compiled by Zhou Qing, and Lu Yuan’s basic knowledge on herbal medicine, it was not difficult to execute the operations mentioned within.

So, on the next day, after fully understanding the guide, he immediately started dealing with the Blood Jade Centipede.

Because Zhou Qing had a stock of rare primary medicines and the common auxiliary medicines could be directly purchased from the city clinic, it was not troublesome to prepare.

It took only half a day to prepare all the medicines.

He began extracting the poison from the Blood Jade Centipede.

The process was smooth, and after making suitable medicine, and using the mature refining method of the Zhou family, Lu Yuan spent an afternoon to successfully extract the poison from the Blood Jade Centipede.

“This poison too is a treasure, can’t waste it. I’ll store it, it’ll definitely be of use later. ”

Looking at the small plate of dark red powder, the waste from extraction, Lu

Yuan carefully scraped them into a little jade bottle, and secured it at his side.

The effects of various drugs in Jianghu, Lu Yuan had already intensely experienced after the use of seven-step fragrance.

The poison extracted from the Blood Jade Centipede, whether be its potency or its value, far exceeded that of the seven-step fragrance divine medicine.

Despite this, it can only be used for poisoning, but that what makes it valuable.

After all, in Lu Yuan’s hands, this little bit of poison, at the critical moment, could become a deadly weapon.

Naturally, it needs to be treasured.

Having kept away the poison, Lu Yuan cleaned up everything and then took out the detoxified Blood Jade Centipede to start the second step – neutralizing medicinal properties.

In this step, the Blood Jade Centipede will be converted into a strong medicine. Upon consumption, it can make significant progress in divine skills and achieve major success in martial arts.

With this motivation, Lu Yuan intensively began making the medicine..
