  In the hot summer, even if you sit in a cool place and don't move, you will feel hot all over your body, as if you are covered with a layer of furry moisture. What's more, Zhou Baopu had been traveling all day, and the sweat on his body had already formed a layer of fine salt grains. When he gently touched it with his fingers, the rough feeling was quite uncomfortable.

  After eating and taking a shower, Zhou Baopu couldn't wait to place the prescription under the dim oil lamp in the hut, and began to grasp it carefully.

  The herbs he purchased today were already placed on the mottled red paint table. In addition, there is a small scale, which is easily seen to be used for weighing medicinal herbs.

  In fact, Zhou Baopu was already familiar with this prescription. However, to be on the safe side, he still took a look at the prescription before weighing a medicinal herb. The prescription was not complicated. What was complicated was Zhou Baopu's thought, which cost half of his time. After an hour, Zhou Baopu carefully mixed all the herbs.

  As the saying goes, medicine is three parts poison. How could Zhou Baopu not understand this truth?

  Just the thought of being able to sense blood energy made Zhou Baopu feel that even if he was poisoned a little, as long as it was nothing serious, it would be really worth it. Moreover, Zhou Baopu remembered that when Shu Ling gave him this prescription, there were no side effects. So does that mean that this prescription has no side effects?
  Zhou Baopu wasn't sure, so he simply stopped thinking about it. He went to the yard and took the big wooden basin for his sitz bath into the house. Then he poured in the hot water that had been heated for a long time, and poured out all the herbs at once. They all poured into the big wooden basin, and then they stared at it intently.

  A pungent and unpleasant smell first wafted out, making Zhou Baopu couldn't help but sneeze a few times. Then he couldn't help it anymore, so he opened the window and let the wind blow in to disperse some of the breath, lest he could not bear it anymore. Once you sit in, you will be suffocated.

  "Hey, it's really torture! If it were winter, such hot water would be so refreshing. But this is summer, do we still want to survive?" According to the prescription, boiling hot water must be used

  . The active ingredients in the medicinal herbs can be extracted. Only boiling hot water can open the pores all over Zhou Baopu's body. Only boiling hot water can make this prescription work well. Anyway, boiling hot water is one of the very important things to pay attention to.

  After the unpleasant and weird pungent smell passed, Zhou Baopu was pleasantly surprised to find that a faint fragrance began to float in the air, making Zhou Baopu almost unable to help but want to close his eyes and enjoy it. , but he didn't do that, because it was time to get into the hot water for a sitz bath.

  The prescription clearly states that when the scalding hot water brings out the fragrance of the medicinal herbs, it is the time for Zhou Baopu to test the waters.

  Not daring to neglect, he took off all his clothes, slowly walked into the tub, sat down slowly, crossed his legs and began to calm down.

  The door lock has already been locked from the inside, so Zhou Baopu is not afraid of being discovered, and even if he is discovered, he is not afraid.

  Since Zhou Baopu was able to go into the mountains to collect herbs three years ago, Zhou Baopu has often tinkered with various medicinal herbs for sitz baths, hoping to improve his physique and enhance his strength. Not to mention Wang Caifeng, even the people in Zhoujia Village were surprised. No more weird.

  It was not easy for Zhou Baopu to be able to hold back his temper and sit down in the boiling hot water. The boiling hot water might cook him at any time. Zhou Baopu just went in as if nothing had happened, his face My flesh was tangled and trembling, but for the sake of strength and dreams, I could only endure it.

  Just as Zhou Baopu sat down, Liu Shaofei and Liu Shaoqiang, who had been badly beaten and robbed by him and Yao Ruoxi, also returned to Liujiacun.

  "You two brats, why are you looking so disgraced? What's going on? Did you come back late and encountered a pack of wolves in the mountains?" "No, instructor." Liu Shaoqiang asked when he saw Liu Fu walking over from the other

  side

  . His face turned red immediately. He was beaten so badly that he was too embarrassed to tell the story.

  In fact, after seeing Liu Shaofei's bruised nose and swollen face, Liu Fu already knew what was going on, but he still asked knowingly.

  "Oh, what's going on?"

  "It's that bitch Zhou Baopu, and that little girl Yao Ruoxi. We were coming back from collecting herbs in the mountains, and we met them coming back from Holy Stone Town. They didn't say anything, and relied on their strength to surpass us. They were so strong that they attacked us brazenly. We were beaten so badly by them because of our carelessness, and even the herbs we picked were taken away by them!"

  Liu Shaofei's eyes flashed with darkness, The skill of confusing right and wrong is not enough. The cause and effect of the entire incident have been reversed without even thinking about it.

  Liu Shaoqiang was relatively cowardly by nature. Hearing what Liu Shaofei said, he felt at a loss for a moment. He knew very well what the situation was like, but since Liu Shaofei said this, if he didn't agree with him, it seemed that he was also at a loss. wrong.

  "Is that so?"

  Liu Fu is an experienced guy, and he can tell which one is true and which is false almost in the blink of an eye from the facial expressions of the two people.

  Seeing it is one thing, but how to deal with it is another.

  Liu Shaoqiang was naturally cowardly and often indecisive. When he heard Liu Fu ask him this question, and Liu Shaofei kept winking at him from the side, he immediately said obediently: "That's it, the two of them are simply too bullying. We originally wanted to say hello to them."

  When Liu Fu heard this, he was already happy, but with a look of concern on his face, he said to the two of them with concern: "You two are not as good as others. , Besides, this is just a grudge between you and the younger generation, and I can’t get involved, but I can’t just watch you being bullied like this!" At the beginning, he was smiling, but after he finished speaking, his tone was

  cold This made both Liu Shaofei and Liu Shaoqiang feel cold.

  Liu Shaofei looked happy and asked hurriedly: "Second uncle, is there anything you can do?" "

  I can't take action, but I can lend you my black tiger!"

  "Really?"

  Liu Shaofei was pleasantly surprised. The ground screamed. The black tiger was Liu Fu's contracted spirit beast. Although his intelligence was low, his strength was as powerful as any blood user who embarked on the journey of blood refining.

  It was because of the Black Tiger that even when he met the village head of Zhoujia Village, Liu Fu showed no fear at all, and arrogance and domineering became synonymous with him.

  The reason he gave the black tiger to Liu Shaofei was because of Liu Shaofei's hatred for Zhou Baopu. Although he might not be an enemy, Liu Fu would never be soft-hearted towards Zhou Baopu.

  "Second uncle, don't worry. With the help of Heihu, not to mention Zhou Baopu, even if I add Yao Ruoxi and Zhou Yuan, I am confident that they will piss their butts off, even if they lose in the game. Get them back together!"

  "Don't be careless and try to defeat them all! Otherwise, if you get beaten again, it will be your own fault and you will never have to come to me again!"

  Liu Shaofei's heart suddenly became cold, thinking of Zhou Baopu's methods. , already feeling that he was careless, he hurriedly said: "Don't worry, I will definitely not let you down again." Looking

  up, Liu Fu had already walked away. Looking at the beast-raising stone in his hand, Liu Shaofei's eyes changed. There was a fiery expression in it.
