Chapter 120: Offering Pills
There were two little eunuchs guarding the empress's bedroom.
Zhou An hurried over and saw one of the little eunuchs coming up a few steps and was about to speak. He quickly raised his hand and signaled it. When he approached, he lowered his voice and asked, "The Lord hasn't stopped yet?"
"No, the emperor has been resting late recently." The little eunuch replied in a low voice.
"Yes." Zhou An nodded, but suddenly raised his voice a little higher, asking, "How is the emperor sleeping recently?"
"It's still the same as before, always a nightmare, I have to wake up two or three times in one night." The little eunuch replied.
Zhou An nodded again, then raised his hand and signaled that he had nothing to do.
The little eunuch returned to the position on the side of the door and returned to his previous standing motionless appearance.
Zhou An walked up the steps and deliberately increased his pace.
"Xiao Anzi, but are you here?" The empress's voice came from the bedroom. Zhou An had deliberately spoken louder before, just to let her hear it. The empress also had the ability to be able to hear it, so naturally she could hear it.
"It's a slave." Zhou An replied.
"It's so late... but is there something urgent? Come in and talk." The empress's voice came out again.
"Yes." Zhou An responded, then walked forward and pushed the door gently, and entered the bedroom.
The bedroom is still the same as before. Although there are many curtains hanging, it still looks very empty. It is very cold now, but the bedroom is very warm.
Zhou An entered the bedroom and walked quickly to the dragon bed. It was close to him. The empress had been allowed before, so she didn't have to be so far away from her.
Kou Dong'er had already gotten out of bed, dressed in her nightgown, and stood by the dragon bed.
The empress leaned against the dragon bed, and there was a book thrown in front of her. She didn't sleep so late, but was reading... It's not that she didn't want to sleep, but that she couldn't sleep and could only find something to do.
"Master, didn't I say that this peaceful fragrance is better to use less..." Zhou An smelled the heavy fragrance and spoke.
"It's your turn to preach to me?" The empress gave Zhou An anger and rolled her eyes. Of course, she wasn't really angry. She said that she moved on the bed and sat up lazily, saying, "I'm not going to rest well, come here to find me so late, what's the matter?"
When I came to disturb the Empress in the middle of the night, if it were someone else, the Empress would have been angry long ago.
I don't know how to Zhou An.
"Master, that's it... In the morning, I asked you for alchemy. You were sure, so I tried it. I just refined a pill, so I'll send it to you." Zhou An said, then took out a brocade box from his arms, opened it, and held it with both hands to show the empress what was inside.
The super nine-turn great elixir like jade beads is embedded in it, and it is crystal clear and no longer like a elixir.
The fragrance spreads.
"You refined this pill?" The empress looked at it and was very surprised.
This pill looks like it is not an ordinary thing. The empress was surprised by Zhou An's ability to refine elixirs. According to what Zhou An said before, he had never practiced pills before. Today he just started to refine elixirs. Can he refine this pill at the beginning?
Let’s not talk about the effect of this elixir. Just looking at the quality, it should be done by the alchemy master.
Of course, the Empress has seen all kinds of elixirs, so she judged this way.
"It was me who was refined by me. I started to refine this pill at noon. After refining several furnaces, I only became a furnace." Zhou An replied.
"Well..." The empress's face was already a little wrong. She stared at the pill, and seemed to be a little fascinated. Her face began to turn red, and even breathed a little faster. "What's the use of this pill?"
"Returning to the emperor, the effect of this pill is, first, it can strengthen the power and break the realm, second, it can heal and detoxify, and can prolong life, without any toxicity or side effects." Zhou Anlian said, "Didn't you have always had insomnia recently and have headaches, so I sent you this pill, which should relieve the saint's disease."
"Strong power breaks the realm?" The empress ignored Zhou An's later words, "So magical?"
The Empress knew that everything that can strengthen your skills and help you break through the realm can be called a magic pill. Even if its effect is average, as long as it has such an effect, it will be a pill that will not be exchanged for thousands of gold.
Zhou An has just started to study alchemy and can he refine this kind of alchemy?
"Master, I've already tried someone..." Zhou Anlian said, "This pill can indeed help people improve their skill level. I've refined three pills in total and ate one pill himself. Now the internal injuries of the slave have been healed."
"There are three in total, one here, you can eat one and another one. Is it helping people improve their skills?"
"yes!"
“How much is it to improve?”
"After acquired destruction of the innate being!"
"What?!"
The empress was startled and her voice suddenly became much higher and her eyes widened.
The acquired nature breaks the innate?!
This effect is much greater than what the Empress thought before!
This is amazing!
"Will your ability improve if you take this pill?" the empress asked immediately.
"It has increased by 10% of the internal strength." Zhou Andao.
The empress was shocked again.
This pill is not only useful for the acquired realm, but also for the Earth Evil realm! This is...
"How much does it cost to refine this pill?" the empress asked again.
"I have refined four furnaces of pills in total, and it has become one furnace and three. After careful calculation, the medicinal materials used are equivalent to about 50,000 taels of silver." Zhou An said cautiously. After all, he used medicinal materials from the inner palace. He was still a little guilty when he spent so much at once.
The empress was a little disappointed.
She was not disappointed with Zhou An spending too much, but the material of this pill was too expensive, which means that this pill would definitely not be refined in batches.
What the empress just thought was that if the elixir was not that expensive, she could ask Zhou An to refine it in batches to cultivate elite troops. In this way, she would have more strength to fight against Wu Xukuan.
It may even turn the tables right away!
But this cost is too much.
This idea can only be given up.
"It costs so much, but this pill can have such an effect, which is not disappointing." The empress sighed, shook her head and smiled helplessly.
She was laughing at herself, laughing at herself with whimsical thoughts. There is no such good thing in the world. She wants effects and wants cheapness. In terms of alchemy, the cost is proportional to the effect. The better the pill, the more expensive the medicinal materials used, the greater the cost.
Since Zhou An's pill is effective, it is normal to consume so much.
The empress understands that she will not blame Zhou An for this.
Seeing the empress's expression, Zhou An had some guesses about the empress's thoughts, and his heart suddenly moved.
The empress looked at the brocade box that Zhou An was dragging, and reached out and took out the super nine-turn big reincarnation. She pinched her fingers and looked closer.
"Master, I can't only refine this kind of pill." Zhou An suddenly said, "The prescription for this pill was thought of by medicinal people himself. I have also thought of other prescriptions. I have tried to prepare them with medicinal materials in private, but I have not refined them into pills, and the effect is mostly inference."
