Chapter 73: Entering the Ice and Fire Yin and Yang
"What I want to say is that the snake venom in Yanyan's body is now backfiring and it seems to be getting worse. If this problem is not solved in time, she will show symptoms of poisoning in a few years. As Yanyan's friend, I really don't want to see her suffer from the backfiring of the snake venom."
Xia Liang looked at Dugu Bo and said thoughtfully, "Many tonic foods are actually a kind of medicine. Recently, I have been researching foods that can help Yanyan regulate the backlash of snake venom in her body."
"Senior, this is what I think. Take advantage of the fact that the snake venom in Yanyan's body has not yet been integrated into her flesh and blood and penetrated into her bone marrow. If we strengthen Yanyan's flesh and blood through food conditioning, perhaps we can resist the invasion of the snake venom."
"Think of a way to prevent the snake venom from invading the flesh?" Dugu Bo asked with some interest, "Go on."
Xia Liang nodded and said, "If the snake venom is isolated by the flesh and blood, then it will be easy to force it out. However, this may indirectly weaken Yanyan's own poison skills."
"So, I thought of a way. That is to get Yanyan a venom sac. Storing the snake venom in the body in the venom sac can avoid the problem of snake venom backlash without weakening Yanyan's ability to use poison. Senior, do you think this method is feasible?"
Dugu Bo's eyes lit up, "What exactly is the poison sac you are talking about?"
"It could be a soul bone." Xia Liang thought for a moment before saying, "After Yanyan absorbs a soul bone, she can force the snake venom that is isolated from the flesh and blood into the soul bone."
After hearing this story, Dugu Bo fell into deep thought. He used soul bones as poison sacs to store snake venom in the body. Although this method only treated the symptoms and not the root cause, it was definitely more effective than his own anti-venom pills in alleviating the backlash of his granddaughter's snake venom.
Moreover, this method of forcing the snake venom in the body into the soul bone is not only suitable for his granddaughter, but he should also be able to use it to solve the problem of snake venom backlash.
However, the snake venom in his body had already been integrated into his flesh and blood and penetrated into his bone marrow. How easy was it to force the venom out of his flesh and blood and bones?
Dugu Bo was not very disappointed that he could not solve his own problem. At least his granddaughter would have a chance to avoid the pain of the snake venom in the future.
"You said that you could use food conditioning to strengthen Yanyan's body to prevent the snake venom from invading her flesh and blood." Dugu Bo looked at Xia Liang and asked, "What results did you come up with?"
Xia Liang shook his head regretfully, "Not yet. Senior, you just pointed out that the special seasoning of the black chicken and smoked sea bass soup is the addition of certain tonic herbs. Then you should have a good understanding of herbs and food conditioning, right?"
"I have tried all the common herbs on the market. Unfortunately, they can't play a big role in nourishing my flesh and blood. I have such a big nourishing effect because I am thin. Yanyan's body is normal, and she is a Soul Master. I guess only those high-level herbs that can strengthen the body and nourish the essence can be beneficial to the body of a Soul Master."
"Do you know any high-grade herbs?" Dugu Bo became alert again.
"The high-end herbs I know are all plants that can be made into various seasonings. Such as spicy grass, snow silkworm and cinnabar lotus. Among them, snow silkworm is the best of cordyceps. Compared with the cordyceps on the market, it is definitely a high-end herb that likes cold. It is mainly used to relieve internal heat and thirst. Using snow silkworm as the main ingredient, you can make a soup base that resists heat and drives away summer heat."
Before Xia Liang could finish, Dugu Bo suddenly interrupted and said, "Okay, stop showing off your knowledge."
"First, I provided Yanyan with the method of melting the ring and mixing poison in vitro, and now I am looking for a solution to the snake venom problem for her. Boy, you care about my granddaughter?"
Xia Liang smiled, "Yanyan and I are friends after a fight. It's a fate. Senior, you asked me this all of a sudden. Have you heard the gossip about the academy?"
Dugu Bo did not answer the question directly. He put his hands behind his back and said calmly, "Since you know some high-grade herbs. That's great. I have quite a few in my herb garden. Come with me."
"Isn't this bad?" Xia Liang said with some concern, "The more I know, the faster I will die. If I go to your herb garden and find out what high-grade herbs you have planted, then after I help Yanyan research food to regulate her body, won't you kill me to silence me?"
Dugu Bo's eyes flashed with a sinister look, "If you don't follow me, do you believe I will kill you right now?"
"Let's go. I'll go with you." Xia Liang said fearfully, "Senior, I'll go with you to your medicine garden now. I will pay close attention to Yanyan's affairs. As long as we can find the right medicinal materials, we will definitely be able to research out some very nourishing food."
Sunset Forest, core area.
In front of the green phosphorus snake venom formation.
Looking at the familiar dark green poisonous mist in the poison array, Xia Liang took out an anti-poison pill from the medicine bottle and swallowed it.
Dugu Bo on the side said with some disdain, "With me taking you in, are you still afraid of being accidentally injured by the poison array?"
Xia Liang smiled, "Just in case of an emergency. I'm not like my predecessor, who relies on the world's best Green Phosphorus Snake King Poison to fight poison with poison. I can be said to be immune to all poisons."
After hearing these words that were a bit fearful and a bit flattering, Dugu Bo looked at Xia Liang thoughtfully. He finally understood what kind of person his granddaughter was spending time with every day.
However, this person must be sincere in giving so much to his granddaughter.
"Let's go." Dugu Bo put his left hand on Xia Liang, and in a flash, he passed through the poison array and arrived at the safe area inside the poison array.
The place was shrouded in mist, and it was obviously near the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire.
Xia Liang looked around in surprise, as if it was his first time here, his eyes full of disbelief.
"Senior, is this your medicine garden? The fog is so thick that I can't see the surrounding environment clearly." Xia Liang said, staring at the hazy mist in front of him.
Dugu Bo raised his hand and waved it. A fishy smell suddenly spread out, isolating the fog within a hundred meters, and everything around him became clearly visible.
"This fog is formed by extremely cold and hot air. Even I dare not stay under the fog for too long."
As he spoke, Dugu Bo walked forward with his hands behind his back.
Xia Liang followed closely behind, and said with some admiration, "Poison Douluo's herb garden is indeed extraordinary. Even the fog is life-threatening. Senior, you don't dare to stay in this fog for too long. Then isn't it dangerous for me to look for herbs here?"
"Don't worry, these mists have been temporarily isolated by my soul power. You don't have to worry about being hurt by the mist within a hundred meters."
Dugu Bo suddenly glanced at Xia Liang out of the corner of his eye, his suspicion towards the person who stole the herbs still had not completely disappeared.
After all, I have lived for seventy or eighty years. What kind of betrayal and deception have I not experienced?
Instead of trusting a person, it is better to doubt a person. This way, I can keep my sanity and not let other factors affect my judgment.
"We're here. This is my medicine garden."
Dugu Bo suddenly stopped.
Xia Liang, who was following behind, also stopped and looked at the clear distinction between the Yin-Yang Eyes of ice and fire a hundred meters away. The surprise in his eyes gradually became stronger.
Xia Liang's eyes passed over the various plants on the ground around him one by one, and he couldn't speak clearly. "Senior, did you cultivate all these herbs? At a glance, they are full of precious light. Just from the gorgeous precious light, we can tell that every herb here is extremely rare. It is no exaggeration to say that they are natural treasures."
"Do you know all the herbs here?" Dugu Bo asked.
"I don't know much by sight. But I have seen some of these herbs in the plant books in the Tiandou Library. Senior, please come with me."
Dugu Bo followed Xia Liang towards a large golden chrysanthemum
