98: Chapter 98 Golden Sore Powder 98: Chapter 98 Golden Sore Powder The specific effects of the dicine Decoction Pot were unclear to Cheng Feng.
A month ago, Xia Hong personally approached him and instructed him to observe the plants outside while logging, bringing back anything that seed dicinal or particularly rare and valuable.
Though he didn’t understand why, Cheng Feng followed Xia Hong’s orders and kept an eye out during the past month, managing to bring back more than ten unique plants.
The dicine Decoction Pot looked quite magical, but so far, Cheng Feng hadn’t noticed any practical use.
On the contrary, every ti plants were added, an undetermined amount of coal stone had to be consud to trigger a reaction.
This so-called reaction was rely a faint light emitted from the dicine Decoction Pot.
Although it appeared magical, without any tangible results, the plants remained unchanged despite ti spent inside.
After a while, Cheng Feng wondered why Xia Hong wanted him to do this.
“Where did this Blue Frost Grass co from?”
Blue Frost Grass?
Realizing Xia Hong was referring to the pale blue plant he had brought back, Cheng Feng quickly responded, “It was from the outskirts of Redwood Ridge, growing on snowy ground beside a blue tree.
There were many of them, and I detected a faint fragrance, thinking it might be useful.
Leader, do you know if the Blue Frost Grass is very effective?”
Though unsure of the dicine Decoction Pot’s specific effects, Cheng Feng could deduce a few things from Xia Hong’s previous instructions.
Connecting this with the joy he saw on Xia Hong’s face earlier, he imdiately sensed he had brought back sothing useful.
Hearing that there were many of these plants, Xia Hong’s face lit up with joy.
He quickly asked, “You didn’t cut down the tree, did you?”
Cheng Feng shook his head and replied, “No, recently we’ve been focusing on cutting Golden Frost Trees, only going for Vermilion Frost when we can’t find any.
This type of blue tree is of average hardness, and we didn’t cut it since it’s the first ti we’ve seen it.”
“Then mark the location of the tree; it must not be cut in the future.
The Blue Frost Grass is likely a companion plant to that tree and very valuable.”
Listening to Xia Hong’s earnest instructions, Cheng Feng nodded.
“Grind one stalk each of Blue Frost Grass and Black Tribulus into powder, half a pound of coal stone powder, one pound of Golden Frost, and ten pounds of Frost Wolf Bones ground into powder, then add water and boil for half an hour.”
Looking at the formula for Golden Sore Powder, Xia Hong’s expression shifted slightly, and he instructed Cheng Feng to bring Xia Chuan over.
He then relayed the ingredients to Xia Chuan for retrieval from the mine warehouse.
Both coal stone and Blue Frost Grass were readily available, and Black Tribulus grew by the mine;
Golden Frost grows at the top of the Golden Frost Tree, appearing white and oval, sowhat like a fruit.
There’s only one per tree, weighing between ten to fifty pounds;
Frost Wolf Bones, as the na suggests, are the ring of spines around a Frost Wolf’s neck.
An adult Frost Wolf has over a dozen, each weighing about ten pounds.
A while back, Xia Hong ordered anything deed dicinally valuable, as identified by the dicine Decoction Pot, to be collected and stored in the mine warehouse.
Xia Chuan, the Camp Supply Officer, managed these materials and the Cold Beast at.
Soon, Xia Chuan gathered all the items Xia Hong had ntioned.
Xia Hong personally handled the preparation, quickly readying all the materials.
He then had a large wooden tub of water brought in, threw all the materials into the dicine Decoction Pot, poured water, added 10 units of coal stone, or two hundred pounds, and began the concoction process.
At first, everyone was puzzled, but as ti passed, a distinct aroma wafted from the dicinal ingredients inside the dicine Decoction Pot, and they realized that Xia Hong was concocting dicine.
A sense of anticipation appeared on everyone’s faces.
Unsurprisingly, Xia Hong himself was the most eager.
Golden Sore Powder, based on its na, seed similar to the golden sore dicine from martial arts novels in his past life, intended for treating external injuries.
This would be extrely valuable dicinally for the current Great Xia.
Those who stayed at the camp or were mbers of the logging team typically remained unscathed under normal conditions;
But for the Hunting Team mbers, dealing daily with powerful Cold Beasts posed a different challenge.
Though they now had animal traps and Xia Hong led their missions, as long as they avoided overly powerful or unfamiliar beasts, fatalities were rare, but injuries were unavoidable.
Even Xia Hong at the Earth-digging Realm wasn’t exempt, let alone those at the Logging Realm, who frequently sustained injuries from Cold Beasts, often nightly occurrences.
Without dicinal treatnt, they could only wait for injuries to heal naturally.
Despite a strong constitution allowing self-recovery from most wounds, more severe injuries could lead to lasting aftereffects, disability, infection, or even death.
Moreover, the system’s products had never disappointed Xia Hong before, and while the Golden Sore Powder’s na sounded plain, its efficacy could only be confird through testing.
The commotion from the dicine Decoction Pot grew louder, and the steam from within beca denser.
As the steam billowed, a unique fragrance continued to emanate.
After half an hour, the coal stone at the bottom extinguished with a pop, and the dicine Decoction Pot fell silent.
As the last wisp of steam dissipated, Xia Hong approached, opened the lid of the dicine Decoction Pot, and many gathered around.
All eyes focused on the interior of the dicine Decoction Pot.
A heap of golden-yellow, dry dicinal powder appeared before everyone’s eyes.
The aromatic scent from the powder left an indulgent expression on everyone’s faces.
“Bring Zou Yuankai and Zhu Shun over.”
At Xia Hong’s command, the crowd stirred, and soon Zou Yuankai and Zhu Shun erged from the periphery.
Zou Yuankai’s right cheek was wrapped in a piece of Beast Skin; Zhu Shun limped on his left leg, occasionally wincing in pain.
Today, Xia Hong gave the Hunting Team a holiday because of them.
Last night, while leading the hunt for a Golden-eyed Demon Sheep, the tree they were hiding in while shooting was knocked over by the Demon Sheep, leaving them both badly injured.
“Show your wounds, and I’ll apply the dicine to test its effect.”
Upon hearing Xia Hong’s words, they didn’t hesitate and imdiately revealed their wounds.
Zou Yuankai unwrapped the Beast Skin, revealing a five-inch long, hideous gash that stretched from his chin to his forehead, a disturbing sight.
Fortunately, people in the Ice Abyss World didn’t worry about appearances; in his past life, this kind of injury would leave soone ashad for life.
Zhu Shun rolled up his pant leg, unwrapped the Beast Skin, revealing a more than twenty-centiter long wound on his left leg, with surrounding blood still seeping out.
The wound looked even more terrifying compared to Zou Yuankai’s.
Seeing their injuries, those surrounding the dicine Decoction Pot couldn’t help but gasp.
“You know, the Cold Beast at you eat daily isn’t from thin air!”
Taking this chance for education, Xia Hong didn’t miss the opportunity.
Noticing the surprise on their faces, he promptly reminded them.
As soon as he said this, even the reserve force mbers who had never left camp, and the logging team mbers, showed expressions of sha on their faces.
After which, Xia Hong didn’t say more, as so things were better left unsaid.
A simple reminder of their origins was sufficient.
Using a wooden spoon, he scooped out a bit of the Golden Sore dicine Powder and carefully applied it to Zou Yuankai’s facial wound.
Sssss…
The mont the powder touched the wound, a clear reaction occurred, and Zou Yuankai couldn’t help but gasp from the pain; Zhu Shun experienced the sa process, his larger leg wound requiring more powder.
“Leader, it feels itchy; wait, it’s really itchy… my face itches a lot…”
Xia Hong reacted with surprise to Zou Yuankai’s remark right after applying the powder to Zhu Shun’s wound.
Itchy?
A scab, already, in just a few minutes!
Xia Hong looked slightly skeptical, hurriedly approaching Zou Yuankai and closely observing the wound on his face.
After just a brief glance, Xia Hong’s face was imdiately filled with joy.
