After Transmigrating into a Book, I Was Entangled by a Crazy and Beautiful Villain - Chapter 54.2

How rude!

Song Linlin probably realized she had said the wrong thing and could only smile awkwardly, saying sheepishly: “I’m relatively inexperienced, pardon me.”

Then she coughed twice and asked curiously: “So, what are you doing?”

Seeing Song Linlin’s lack of worldly knowledge, Zhang San could only shake her head silently. She sighed and explained helplessly: “I’m making medicinal food. Various herbs with unique effects are put into it according to proportion. The resulting liquid is considered a great tonic and can also improve and strengthen a person’s physique.”

“However, you can’t just dump any material into this thing. It must strictly follow the recipe; otherwise, the medicinal powers of various effects will mix, the potency will be too much, and consuming it might lead to ‘over-supplementation,’ which can kill a person.”

Song Linlin nodded repeatedly after hearing the consequences were so serious, indicating she understood. This was the first time she had heard of this thing. She didn’t know how to make it and didn’t dare to randomly add things, so she honestly stood beside Zhang San, quietly waiting for Zhang San’s instructions.

Zhang San recalled the recipe she knew, taking up a pen to estimate the required number of various materials on paper based on different physiques. She occasionally turned back to Song Linlin, saying:

Take two stalks of that yellow-flowered herb and crush them.

Throw one of that red plant’s root-stems in.

Take the red fruit on the left, remove the pit, and put the pulp in.

Because Song Linlin didn’t know the names of these things, Zhang San simply and crudely described their external features so that Song Linlin could find them faster.

Song Linlin also honestly processed these items according to her instructions and then threw them into the constantly churning medicinal broth.

Soon, the medicinal aroma in the kitchen grew stronger and stronger. The burning flame caused steam to rise and spread. The spiritual energy concentration in the kitchen now was almost comparable to that inside a Spirit Gathering Formation.

Song Linlin sat on a stool, watching the pot of medicinal broth. It was hard to imagine how potent this thing must be. Just the steam produced by the broth was already so powerful. How great an effect would be drinking it have?

After being busy for a while, time passed, and it was now close to noon. Zhang San sat next to the stove with the blue flame, controlling the fire while also paying attention to the situation inside the pot. The fan she originally used to fan the stove was now being used to fan herself.

It smells so good. Should it be done soon?

Just smelling this fragrance gave Song Linlin an urge to immediately take a sip. Zhang San had put in only precious and famously potent materials, and based on the recipe researched by her family, the nutrition contained in this pot of medicinal food was simply unimaginable.

Zhang San slowly fanned herself, glanced at the situation in the pot, and nodded. Almost.

If this pot of stuff were sold outside, it would certainly fetch a huge price. No cultivator could ignore something that emitted such a rich spiritual energy, even Song Linlin, who had a Pure Yin constitution and didn’t have a great need for spiritual energy, couldn’t help but develop a strong desire for this pot of medicinal food.

The two waited for another half hour. Zhang San finally controlled the flame to gradually weaken until it extinguished. The refreshing medicinal fragrance permeated the entire house.

Zhang San put on gloves and took the pot down. With various strange herbs put into it, she had been stewing this pot since last night. Now that the essence of the herbs had merged, the final product was only half a pot of golden-yellow liquid.

Looking at the liquid that had been cooked, it was exactly the same as Zhang San remembered, so it seemed she hadn’t cooked it wrong.

Song Linlin was quick-witted and went to get two bowls. She was already waiting nearby. Zhang San took one of the bowls, scooped up a bowl of the golden-yellow medicinal broth, and handed it to Song Linlin.

Receiving the white porcelain bowl, the liquid inside was golden in color and smelled strongly of a refreshing floral scent. It looked very appetizing. The temperature of the liquid was surprisingly not as scalding hot as imagined; it was at a drinkable level.

Song Linlin cautiously lowered her head and took a small sip. She was afraid that this thing might look good but taste terrible when drunk, so she didn’t act rashly.

Her tongue touched the golden liquid. It had a faint, sweet taste upon entering her mouth, feeling inexplicably like drinking a hot floral tea.

Swallowing a mouthful of the medicinal broth, the liquid slid past her throat and flowed to her stomach. Song Linlin could feel a warm sensation spreading where the liquid passed. With this one sip, her spirit was already lifted quite a bit.

Song Linlin no longer hesitated, raising the white porcelain bowl and drinking all the golden-yellow medicinal broth inside, chugging it in one go. She put down the bowl and let out a comfortable sigh.

Now, Song Linlin felt warm all over. Zhang San didn’t pour a bowl for herself but just stood quietly watching Song Linlin finish the entire bowl in one breath.

After Song Linlin put down the bowl, Zhang San immediately leaned over and asked curiously: How does it feel? This is my first time making this, too.

It tastes great, Song Linlin nodded, affirming it.

I wasn’t asking you that! Zhang San felt a headache. Song Linlin’s thought process was probably different from most people. Zhang San continued: I was asking, what do you feel in your body after drinking it?

Oh, oh.

Song Linlin savored the feeling for a moment, was quiet for two seconds, and then said: Hmm. I feel warmth in my stomach, and I’m warm all over.

She thought about it more carefully and added: I feel a bit warm in my lower abdomen too.

Zhang San nodded, relieved. “Excellent. Then it seems this pot of medicinal food is a success!”

Looking at the medicinal broth remaining in the pot, there was about another bowl’s worth. Zhang San poured the remaining liquid into a porcelain bowl and handed the bowl to Song Linlin. Here, there’s one more bowl. Drink this one too!

Huh? It’s for me again? Song Linlin was a little confused. After working with Zhang San all morning, she felt a bit embarrassed to drink the entire pot herself, especially since all the materials belonged to Zhang San.

Song Linlin declined: “Why don’t you drink it instead?”

No need. I specifically prepared it for you. You drink it, don’t waste it, Zhang San insisted firmly.

Seeing her so persistent, Song Linlin couldn’t refuse her good intentions. She accepted the white porcelain bowl.“Alright then, I’ll drink it.

Mhm! Zhang San nodded.

Song Linlin picked up the bowl and drank the liquid inside. The warm feeling became even more pronounced. She clearly felt that her physical constitution seemed to have undergone some change. Her originally slow absorption speed of spiritual energy suddenly accelerated significantly, and her body became much healthier.

Exhaling a warm breath, Song Linlin sensed the change in her body and said: I feel like I’ve become a little stronger?

It was only now that Song Linlin remembered she hadn’t asked about the purpose of the medicinal broth. She looked at Zhang San and asked curiously: What is this thing’s effect?

Zhang San chuckled, proudly beginning to introduce the recipe’s effect: Enhancing physical fitness, improving cultivation potential, and expelling toxins hidden in the body are all side benefits. Its most important purpose is that if a woman drinks this, she will

Song Linlin listened intently and couldn’t help but ask: She will what?

Zhang San put away her smile and said seriously: “It can treat infertility. If the person’s fertility function is already normal, it will make conception easier.”

Song Linlin: Huh???
