"It's just a name. Nobody else has your abilities, so don't worry about it. Just handle it carefully." Lin Yao found it amusing. Xiao Cao was very curious and always wanted to know why.
Now that Xiaocao has made some progress in fusing with the spirit stone, she has less time for seclusion. In her own words, she has entered a period of rest. As long as she is not allowed to personally extract the medicinal energy, there will be no harm.
This process of killing white blood cells may seem complex, but for Xiaocao, it's simply a repetitive task. A normal adult has fewer than 5 billion white blood cells, while Ni Ruoxue has approximately 20 billion, most of which are diseased white blood cells that need to be killed.
The grass sprouted roots from Lin Yao's hands, spreading all over Ni Ruoxue's body, forming a network more intricate than a spider web. Numerous hairs emerged from each root network, specifically targeting and killing diseased white blood cells in the blood and tissue fluid.
The medical energy simultaneously entered Ni Ruoxue's body, helping to protect and nourish her body tissues and prevent excessive white blood cells from killing her and affecting her bodily functions.
The white blood cells killed by the grass gathered in Ni Ruoxue's abdomen through the dense root veins. Four hours later, Lin Yao withdrew his right hand, took out the golden needles that had been prepared in advance, and inserted them into Ni Ruoxue's stomach.
A viscous liquid, resembling pus, slowly oozed from the small hole in the gold needle, flowing into the absorbent cotton that had been prepared nearby, quickly soaking the cotton.
"Change the cotton, quickly."
As soon as Lin Yao finished speaking, Gou Xiaogou, who was standing to the side, nervously used tweezers to lift the cotton soaked in pus and throw it into the trash can. He then replaced it with fresh cotton. His hands trembled like a vibrating sieve as he did so. He held his breath and was sweating profusely. He only breathed a sigh of relief after he finished replacing the cotton.
After Gou Xiaogou replaced the cotton wool several times, Lin Yao removed the gold needles, ending the first treatment.
"Okay, Xiaoxue, rest for a bit. Your body will recover slowly." Lin Yao said, reaching out to stroke Ni Ruoxue's forehead, touching it lightly and then withdrawing. Ni Ruoxue quickly fell asleep.
"Thank you! Thank you!" Gou Xiaogou grabbed Lin Yao's arm and shook it vigorously. He couldn't understand such miraculous medical skills, but he knew that there was hope for his girlfriend's illness.
Lin Yao didn't respond to Gou Xiaogou's thanks in a sentimental way. Looking at the sweat on Gou Xiaogou's face, he smiled and said, "Go take a shower. We'll go out to eat. Xiaoxue will be fine. She'll probably sleep for twelve hours straight."
"Boss, did you use hypnosis just now? Or acupressure? You put Xiaoxue to sleep." Gou Xiaogou grabbed a large pig's trotter and started gnawing on it, looking at Lin Yao with eager eyes. "Did you practice internal energy cultivation?"
"Why so many questions about eating?" Lin Yao said with a smile, tapping Gou Xiaogou with his chopsticks. He thought to himself that this guy was really smart and could see the essence of everything at a glance.
Gou Xiaogou smiled happily, grabbed a pig's trotter from his hand, dipped it in the sauce dish, and then stuffed it into his mouth. The stewed pig's trotter was so tender that it was like liquid, and he sucked it into his throat. He felt that the food in Chengdu was so delicious, it was simply the most delicious food in the world.
"Boss, how long will it take for Xiaoxue to recover?" Satisfied, Gou Xiaogou took the time to ask the question he was most concerned about. He didn't dare to ask too many questions at once, for fear of upsetting Lin Yao. At this moment, for Xiaoxue's sake, he had to use some tricks to please and get close to her. He didn't have the style and image of the number one person in the industry at all.
"One month, but it would be best if you stayed for three months. You know, it takes a long time for the number of hematopoietic cells to recover. I'm worried that Xiaoxue's previous living environment was not good and that she came into contact with some toxic things, so it would be best if she stayed in Chengdu for a while and left after she had fully recovered," Lin Yao explained seriously.
"I'll give you another bottle of medicine later. You can give Xiaoxue one pill of the previous one every day, and the other one is also one pill every three days, to help her take care of her health." Lin Yao generously made the decision. "I've also saved one of the other pills for you to take yourself."
"Boss, your pills must be top-notch, amazing!" Gou Xiaogou used his clumsy flattery skills, thinking to himself that there really was a "fasting pill" in this world that could make one not need to eat, it was simply a myth.
"That's right, but don't call me 'boss,' it sounds like a gangster. Just call me Brother Yao." Lin Yao started to emphasize the value of the pills. He knew that he couldn't be modest with someone like Gou Xiaogou, or the other party would look down on him. "'Life-Giving Pills' are the most precious. I wouldn't sell them even if they cost a million each. I'll give five to your Xiaoxue and keep one for yourself."
"Ah!" Gou Xiaogou didn't expect that the little pills he hadn't seen before would be so expensive. He thought he owed Xiaoxue a huge favor. He wondered what kind of good thing this "Life-Giving Pill" was. He decided to just give it all to Xiaoxue so she could recover faster.
Lin Yao seemed to see through Gou Xiaogou's thoughts and said calmly, "Xiaoxue's illness only requires five 'Life-Giving Pills'. You have to take your own pill. Don't think you can hide it from me. I can tell at a glance whether you've taken the pill or not."
"The 'Life-Generating Pill' is for overall health maintenance; it's no exaggeration to say it can prolong life. Your body is as weak as a chick's. Here's a pill for you, so you can work for me from now on."
"Oh." Gou Xiaogou replied sheepishly, his thoughts exposed. He wondered if the pill was really that effective. Wouldn't it be a magic pill?
It wasn't until he and Xiaoxue took the "Life-Giving Pill" that they realized Lin Yao's words were not an exaggeration at all. It was practically a magic pill. One pill was enough to make his body no longer weak and frail, and Xiaoxue also quickly recovered her health.
"Sheng Sheng Dan" is a new product created by Lin Yao based on the formula of "Yang Sheng Wan". He made "Yang Sheng Wan" and had Xiao Cao taste it. Then he adjusted the formula again and created a new product. Of course, this "Sheng Sheng Dan" was made by Lin Yao using pseudo-dan fire. It is more effective than the traditional process. It turns the pill that could only nourish health into a pill with the effect of greatly strengthening the body's functions and prolonging life.
The "Health Preservation Pill" formula contains a special ingredient: wild mushrooms from the mountains near Lin Yao's maternal grandfather's hometown, known as Artemisia argyi. These poisonous wild mushrooms also possess extremely strong cell-activating effects. According to Lin Yao's own testing, this active ingredient can stabilize the state of DNA, repair some broken DNA, lengthen DNA telomeres, and increase the number of cell divisions, thus achieving the effect of prolonging life.
Using the pseudo-elixir fire for refining, the improved "Nourishing Life Pill" formula was used to refine a new pill. This soybean-sized pill was named "Life-Giving Pill" by Lin Yao. Of course, it was given to his parents, Wen Youmin, and Wu Jianwei as soon as possible. Old Master Wen was also fortunate enough to receive one.
Lin Yao is now willing to spend six "Life-Giving Pills" to win over Gou Xiaogou. The medicinal materials used to make one of these "Life-Giving Pills," each the size of a soybean, are the same as those used to make one hundred "Health-Preserving Pills." Just the "Health-Preserving Pills" alone could sell for 200,000 yuan, let alone this upgraded version of the "Life-Giving Pill."
Lin Yao himself only has about twenty "Life-Giving Pills" on hand right now. If it weren't for helping Xiao Xue restore her hematopoietic cell function, he wouldn't be so willing to part with them. Of course, if Xiao Cao were to do it herself, these "Life-Giving Pills" could be saved, but Lin Yao would never choose a plan that would be detrimental to Xiao Cao.
"Have you finished eating? If you have, go back to your room and get to work. I've prepared your laptop and internet cable. You need to work hard to develop the database system, otherwise you'll have wasted my 'Life-Saving Pill'." Lin Yao smiled at Gou Xiaogou, who was wiping his mouth, with a warm smile on his face.
Gou Xiaogou felt that Lin Yao's smile was like a fox's, and couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine.

"You little bastard! You dare to extort even me? I'll skin you alive!"
The enormous roar made the air in the room unstable, giving a feeling of distorted air, and the doors and windows hummed slightly.
A soldier standing guard outside the gate of the small villa pursed his lips and exchanged a glance with his comrade on the other side. The two of them mourned for the man whom the old general had called a little bastard.
Why did they have to provoke General Angry Lion? That guy is really asking for trouble, like an old man who's asking for it.
Xia Luobing sat at a distance on a red camphor wood chair, watching his father, who was furiously raging on the tiger-skin camphor wood sofa, with a wry smile. He felt the chair was too hard, making his bottom ache. He had long wanted to replace it with a soft leather chair, but he was afraid of being scolded by his father for being decadent and corrupt, so he could only keep the furniture away from such comfort.
"I'm getting old," General Xia said. "I'm not even fifty yet and I can't take it anymore. I can't even sit on a hard chair anymore." General Xia didn't listen to General Xia's roar. He was still sighing about the hard chairs in his house. He still wanted to replace them with soft wooden chairs, even just one.
This roaring had been going on for a while, starting after dinner. It was only thanks to the old man's skill and energy that he was able to keep up. If it were any other old man, he would have been out of breath after just a few howls.
After dinner, Xia Yuwen hid in her room. The little girl's pitiful and aggrieved expression made the old man unable to bear continuing to scold her, so he had no choice but to let her leave. Then, he continued to roar alone in the living room.
"Dad, don't be angry. It's not worth ruining your health. We'll give that kid Lin Yao a good scolding when we see him tomorrow. That way we can vent our anger." Duan Ruolan gently comforted the old man, handing him a freshly peeled apple. "Dad, have some fruit. Fruit after a meal is the best thing. The doctor also recommended it."
"Damn that lousy doctor, he's a little bastard who swindled me out of so much money!" General Xia cursed under his breath, taking the apple from his daughter-in-law and taking a big bite. He continued cursing, his words still unclear. "He was lucky he ran fast today, I couldn't catch him. It was mainly because there were too many people in the park. I'm not going to bother with him. Next time he runs into me, he'll be in for it."
"Dad, why are you doing this?" Duan Ruolan suppressed a laugh, feeling that the old man was being stubborn like a child. "Dr. Lin made the price clear beforehand, so it can't be considered extortion. No one forced our family to see him."
