Online Fortune Telling: Your Son Has Another Dad-Chapter 380 - 378: Pill

Li Yingyuan has been the deputy director for many years, making him much more familiar with the Religious Affairs Bureau than these newcomers like Director Xing.

Moreover, he has also attended seminars about the notebook, and knows its situation inside out.

He just doesn’t understand why he suddenly had a lapse and thought of stealing that notebook.

"Where is he? Has he been caught?"

Director He asked again.

"No! But I’ve sent someone to his house."

Director Xing shook his head and replied.

Then he continued, "By the way, did you get the pills made by Xiao Yan?"

"Yes, I got them!"

Director He nodded and then placed the briefcase on the desk, slowly opening it.

Director Xing stood up full of curiosity, his gaze fixed tightly on the ordinary-looking briefcase.

Once the briefcase was opened, Director He took out five glass bottles from inside.

Each of these glass bottles had different labels, with three brown pills inside each one.

"Xiao Yan said that the medicinal herbs growing in the current environment are different from those he used for alchemy back in the day."

"He wandered around the medicinal herb market in Nanxiang City for a long time before finding some herbs that could be used for alchemy."

"With the herbs he has on hand right now, he could only produce these five types of pills..."

Director He said, pointing to the first glass bottle and introducing, "This bottle contains Satiety Pills."

"As the name suggests, after taking one, you won’t need to eat for three days."

Upon hearing this, Director Xing frowned and pondered, "These Satiety Pills don’t seem to have much use."

"But in reality, taking one can last for three days without needing to cook, making it completely viable as military rations..."

Thinking of this, he asked another question, "By the way, what’s the shelf life of these pills?"

"Seems to be ten years?"

Director He replied uncertainly.

"Ten years? That’s even better!"

Director Xing nodded very satisfied and then looked at the second glass bottle.

Seeing this, Director He continued to introduce, "This bottle contains Calm Mind and Clear Spirit Pills."

"According to Xiao Yan’s introduction, after consuming this pill, it can quiet the mind, preventing disturbances from external factors, which is handy for cultivation."

Director Xing thought for a while but couldn’t figure out the use of this Calm Mind and Clear Spirit Pill.

He could only mutter, "Calm Mind and Clear Spirit Pill... I wonder if it can be used as a sleeping pill?"

Director He pointed to the third glass bottle and said, "This one contains Antitoxic Pills!"

"According to Xiao Yan, Antitoxic Pills can neutralize hundreds of toxins."

"Which specific toxins they can neutralize still needs further study."

"Oh!"

Director Xing slightly nodded and said, "Seems like this pill is also suitable for equipping our soldiers."

"The fourth glass bottle contains the Heaven-Supporting Pill!"

After introducing, Director He gave Director Xing a "you know what I mean" smile.

"Hea... Heaven-Supporting Pill?"

Director Xing rubbed his chin, a curious expression in his eyes.

"Yes, just as you imagine its use."

"According to Xiao Yan, this Heaven-Supporting Pill has no toxic side effects."

Director He said while smiling.

"Is it real?"

Director Xing was very interested and said, "If it’s true, then can it replace drugs like Dapoxetine and Sildenafil?"

"Probably?"

Director He replied uncertainly.

"Looks like we need to find someone to test the efficacy of the pills!"

After saying that, Director Xing turned his gaze onto the fifth glass bottle and asked, "What’s the last one?"

"This is the Vitality Pill!"

While introducing, Director He’s face showed a trace of excitement. "This Vitality Pill contains Spiritual Qi, consuming it can aid in cultivation."

"Even Zhenyuan needs to take this Vitality Pill to assist during his cultivation."

"However, this Vitality Pill is the most difficult to make, and the probability of success is very low..."

After hearing this, Director Xing’s eyes brightened immediately.

He couldn’t help but pick up the glass bottle containing the Vitality Pills.

After closely observing them, he spoke with a slightly trembling voice, "Old He, do you think with these Vitality Pills, we can create a few cultivators?"

"Even if they’re not as good as Zhenyuan and Xiao Yan, that’s fine!"

Director He shook his head upon hearing this, saying, "I’m afraid it won’t work!"

"According to Zhenyuan, to cultivate, one must have a Spirit Root."

"Without this so-called Spirit Root, one simply cannot enter the path of cultivation."

"However..."

Saying this, he suddenly paused, hesitant to continue.

"But what?"

Director Xing raised his head to look at him, asking puzzledly.

"I remember Zhenyuan mentioned that the ’Root Planting Technique’ can be used to artificially cultivate Spirit Roots."

Director He replied truthfully.

"Right, right, there’s also the ’Root Planting Technique’!"

Director Xing seemed a bit excited after hearing this.

"But this ’Root Planting Technique’ is quite difficult."

"Not only does it require someone to help open up the meridians within the body and allow Spiritual Qi to enter."

"It also requires consuming Spiritual Pill and Spiritual Spring daily to improve the physical body and remove impurities..."

Director He shook his head.

"What does that matter?"

Director Xing smiled indifferently and said unconcerned, "We can have Zhenyuan help open up the meridians."

"And have Xiao Yan help with making the Vitality Pills."

"With such a two-pronged approach, surely Spirit Roots can be cultivated!"

Director He shook his head again and said, "Old Xing, you’re thinking too simply!"

"For one, although Zhenyuan is easy to talk to, it doesn’t mean he’ll help us selflessly for free."

"On top of that, Zhenyuan is already preparing to travel the world and won’t stay domestically to help us plant roots."

"Once Zhenyuan isn’t there as a mediator, given Xiao Yan’s temperament, it’s hard for us to communicate with him."

"Oh, by the way..."

Director He suddenly slapped his forehead as if remembering something and said with a snicker, "Without Zhenyuan, we might not even be able to find where Xiao Yan is."

After hearing this, Director Xing’s smile instantly froze.

"This... This..."

After thinking for a while, he suddenly asked, "Old He, do you think there’s any chance we can bring these two back?"

"No!"

Director He very straightforwardly denied it.

"Old Xing, you haven’t been to Koukang, you don’t know how powerful Zhenyuan is."

"Zhenyuan can plunge into the ground and vanish in the blink of an eye."

"Also, he can use talisman paper to summon lightning!"

"Do you know? It’s lightning as thick as a water bucket, and once it strikes down, anything can be turned to ashes..."

Director He exaggeratedly gestured.

Upon hearing this, Director Xing couldn’t help but frown.

He continued to ask, "Then can we play the emotional card? After all, we’re all from Dragon Country..."

"Haha!"

To this, Director He responded with a cold laugh, "According to Xiao Yan, they lived in the Ancient Era when there was no concept of modern nations!"
