Chapter 356: Pick Up Unorthodox Things Quick
The godly doctor started teaching Ning Shu and Xu Yu how to make poison. “Poison is just the result of mixing herbs or fluids with toxic properties together. It can also be the result of using a large amount of a herb that is toxic in large quantities.”
He then gave Ning Shu a manual for concocting poisons. Ning Shu soon became familiar with making many of the poisons.
The godly doctor remarked coldly, “You sure pick up these unorthodox things quick.”
Ning Shu just gave a polite laugh.
“You can keep this book to study it in your own time. I’m probably not going to be back for a long time, so take good care of Xu Yu,” said the godly doctor mildly.
“I know. Master, don’t worry,” replied Ning Shu reassuringly.
The godly doctor continued gazing at Ning Shu. When Ning Shu met his gaze, she was taken aback for a moment, then she asked, “Master, do you have additional instructions?”
“No. There’s no need to see me off tomorrow.” After saying that, the godly doctor turned around to enter his room and close the door.
“Master, wait.” Ning Shu pushed the door open and handed him a pill bottle. “Master, these are the heart-nourishing pills I made for you.”
The godly doctor glanced at her, then tapped out a pill onto his palm. After sniffing at it and observing its color, he said mildly, “It’s badly made. The color and medicinal properties are poor. What a waste of the ginseng.”
“Xu Yu and I made them together. Master, make sure to take care of yourself on the journey.” Ning Shu’s ears were already set to filter out the godly doctor’s criticism by now.
“Oh, Xu Yu made it? It’s pretty impressive that he had been able to make a heart-nourishing pill of this quality at his age.” The godly doctor turned to Xu Yu and said, “Next time, pay more attention to how much you grind the herbs.”
Ning Shu: …
The next day, the godly doctor left with Luo Junyan. Xu Yu sent off the godly doctor at the door while Ning Shu hid in the kitchen with her face covered in soot.
“Senior Sister, Master has left,” said Xu Yu as he walked in.
Ning Shu replied ‘oh,’ then washed away the soot on her face as she said, “Then why are you still doing here? Go study.”
“Senior Sister, Master isn’t home, so let’s go fishing?” Xu Yu looked towards Ning Shu with anticipation in his eyes. “There’s a lot of fish in the brook. Let’s eat roasted fish for lunch!”
This little kid had always acted obediant and extremely studious in front of the godly doctor, but he revealed his true self the moment the godly doctor left.
However, Ning Shu felt that it was already very good that this child didn’t end up shutting himself off from the world after losing his parents, so she agreed with a nod. “Alright, let’s have roasted fish for lunch.”
Ning Shu took the poison manual with her and headed to the brook with Xu Yu. She sat near the shore and read while keeping an eye on Xu Yu.
“Oh, it’s a beauty? Come with me.” A low, sexy voice suddenly appeared.
