Chapter 1,047: Medicinal Supplements Are Not as Good as Dietary Supplements

Xia Fei's face didn't look good, because the series of zeros on the bill were so obvious. Xia Fei never dreamed that he actually ate 2.37 million beads of food in three days!

"No, I've never eaten this braised chicken. I've only eaten four plates of roasted pork, but it says nine!" Xia Fei asked, pointing to the bill.

The captain frowned, pointed to the electronic signature on the far left side of the bill and said, "Brother Xia, don't tease me. It's clearly shown on the bill that you ordered the food. Besides, this time it was paid to the boss. Ship, you are the only passenger on the whole ship. We crew members have our own restaurant for meals, so why would we go to the Huayuan restaurant to order food?"

Xia Fei was speechless, that damn old man was not only a gourmet, but also a liar! He actually forged his own electronic signature and recorded the food in Xia Fei's name!

"You were happy when you were eating, but you failed this time? Everything has a price, as you have been saying, there is no free lunch in the world." Yuan muttered at the side.

Xia Fei sighed and opened the space ring to pay. If Xiang Beiyang hadn't given Xia Fei 10 million beads before leaving, Xia Fei would have been in an embarrassing state of having no money to pay.

The captain put away the money with a smile and said to himself: "When I took over this fast ship, I thought no one would order the expensive food in the cold storage, but I didn't expect that some people would actually be willing to eat it."

…

After getting off the boat, we went straight to the main city of Golden Eagle Nineteen.

Golden Eagle Nineteen is much more prosperous than Red Dwarf. Even though it is already early in the morning, it is still very lively, with people coming and going on the streets and neon lights flashing.

Xia Fei had no intention of lingering on the beauty of the night. He was in a terrible mood. All the money was reserved to buy precious medicinal materials. Now, he has used more than two million beads before entering the medicine shop. What do you mean?

As for that damn old man, Xia Fei became more and more angry as he thought about it.

In the center of the city, Xia Fei was going to find a small inn to stay at and go straight to the medicine store tomorrow.

I was walking on the street when I suddenly heard someone calling me.

"Little brother, do you want to try the most delicious midnight snack from Golden Eagle Nineteen?"

Xia Fei looked up and saw the old man on the rooftop of the side building, stretching out his head and smiling at himself, holding half a glass of red wine in his hand, looking very proud of himself.

Saying that enemies and enemies are coming, Xia Fei pretended to be calm, nodded slightly, and then took the elevator to the top floor.

I saw that this was a late-night restaurant. It was late at night, and the old man was the only one sitting near the street. On the table were a few side dishes, a large bowl of soup, and a small half bottle of red wine, while the old man was enjoying himself. Pour yourself and drink, very happy.

With a livid face, Xia Fei sat opposite the old man. A waiter immediately brought tableware and wine glasses. Xia Fei glared at the waiter so hard that he trembled with fright, placed the tableware and left quickly.

"Huh? Little brother, why do you look unhappy?" the old man asked, shaking his wine glass.

Xia Fei said coldly: "I was cheated out of more than two million beads. Who would be happy if I changed it?"

The old man disagreed and said to himself: "The money is wasted, but you also enjoy the delicious food in the world. Isn't that enough?"

"Stop talking nonsense!" Xia Fei said with a stern look on his face: "It's just my share. Why should I pay for you? Give me the money back!"

The old man shook his head slightly and sighed: "You are young and your mind is filled with money. You know, no amount of money can buy happiness. If it weren't for me, you might not have the chance to taste those delicacies in this world." , Forget it, I will return the money to you of course, try this golden quail soup first."

After that, the old man pushed the bowl of thick soup forward and motioned to Xia Fei to have a taste. In fact, Xia Fei had already smelled the delicious aroma of the thick soup. It was not strong, but it went straight into the bones like a bolt of lightning. , this bowl of thick soup must be anything but vulgar.

Xia Fei used a spoon to serve himself a bowl of thick soup, picked it up and drank it all in one gulp.

Whoosh~

After eating this bowl, Xia Fei felt comfortable all over. The heat started from his lower abdomen and spread all over his body. It was like taking a pleasant sauna in the ice and snow. His pores opened and the dirt in his body was slowly discharged. He felt refreshed. .

The old man smiled and said: "Golden quail soup is carefully prepared from the eggs of a kind of golden quail. This kind of golden quail grows in the desert and feeds on various heat-resistant herbs in the desert. A pair of golden quail only eats one kind of golden quail in their lifetime. To lay one egg, this bowl of soup requires twelve eggs.”

"First, the quail eggs must be roasted in a charcoal fire for seven days. The temperature cannot be high or low. It must be exactly 228 degrees to allow the eggs to absorb enough heat. Then the eggs are placed at minus 91 degrees. It is kept in a container for seven days to remove the smoky smell caused by the charcoal fire, and at the same time, the aroma produced in the eggs is absorbed into the egg yolk.”

"Completing these complicated processes is only the first step in making golden quail soup. Next, specialized craftsmen have to be asked to cut open the eggs. Because golden quail eggs are extremely strong, it is impossible to make the complete eggs without extraordinary craftsmanship. Take out the eggs."

"Then comes the soup. There are only a handful of thick soups that can complement golden quail eggs. This one uses water from the Biyun Spring, plus red-top black-bone chicken wings, huali ginger, and silver valley pepper. It is simmered over low heat. become."

"It's a good idea, but it's a pity that I added an extra piece of silver rice pepper, which caused the aroma of the ingredients to overwhelm the fragrance of the golden quail eggs. A bowl of high-quality soup has become a mid-range soup."

Xia Fei ignored the old man. After a while, the soup bottomed out. The old man frowned and whispered: "Eat slowly. You won't know if you encounter golden quail eggs after this meal." What year is it?"

Xia Fei didn't care about this, drank the golden quail soup in one breath, then put the big ceramic bowl on the table, wiped his mouth, and said: "One code is one code, you treat me today Eat, but you still have to pay me back.”

The old man smiled and said nothing, stared at Xia Fei for a long time, and said to himself: "Can you make medicine?"

Xia Fei was slightly startled. He had not been in Alpha Universe for long, and he had never met this old man before. How did he know that he could refine medicine?

"Yes, I learned several techniques of refining medicine when I was in my hometown." Xia Fei said calmly.

"All medicines are poisonous. I can tell by looking at your physical condition. A few years ago, you used medicine to forcibly improve your cultivation. This naturally improved your cultivation, but it also left huge hidden dangers to your body."

"From now on, whenever you get injured, it will get worse. The injury that should have healed in ten days will take you a month. The longer the time, the more serious it will be. Eventually, you will die because of too many toxins accumulated in the body." The old man half-squinted. He closed his eyes and said to himself.

"It's hard to get back?"

"Yes, that's right."

"What evidence do you have?" Xia Fei asked, staring at the strange old man.

When he first debuted, Xia Fei had a defect in his seventh brain area and relied on the medicine refining skills passed down to him by Ghost Shadow to advance. The Shadow Killing Sect's medicine refining skills were all-inclusive, using pharmacologically conflicting poisons. Now Thinking about it, Xia Fei suffered painful torture every time he took medicine. This situation lasted for a long time.

It's a medicine that's three-thirds poisonous, not to mention the medicine from the Shadow Killer Sect, which is extremely poisonous. Xia Fei himself doesn't believe that taking highly poisonous things will cause no harm, but Xia Fei's body has been fine over the years. Xia Fei gradually forgot about the drugs he had taken when he debuted.

Now the strange old man opposite could tell at a glance that Xia Fei had taken a lot of drugs when he was young. How could Xia Fei not be frightened?

The old man smiled slightly and said: "Of course I can see that you are troubled by injuries now. It's a pity that under such circumstances, you still want to use the same old methods to treat your injuries. You are simply courting death!"

"Even if you can cure this injury, the medicine will accumulate again. The next time you are injured, the punishment will not be three times, but six times! By analogy, assuming you are injured several times in your life, My life is about to end."

Not only Xia Fei was frowning in thought, but even Yuan said hurriedly: "What the old man said seems to make sense. Poisons will accumulate. Now, if it is not a treasure of heaven and earth, it will no longer be able to have an effect on your body. This is the best." Proof, but who is he? How do you know so clearly?”

While he was doubting, the old man pointed at Xia Fei and said: "Take a look at your own body. After these few days of conditioning, you have begun to see results. It's a pity that you didn't listen to my advice just now and drank this golden quail soup in one breath." I drank it all, failed to achieve the desired effect, and wasted a feast. "

The old man said it seriously, Xia Fei hurriedly called on his senses to check, and Xia Fei couldn't help being shocked!

The potion prepared by spending millions of dollars is not as effective as eating a few meals with this old man! ? This is too exaggerated!

"How about it, do you believe everything I said?" The old man smiled mysteriously: "Don't think that only medicine can heal injuries, food can also be used."

Of course Xia Fei believed it and looked at the old man with eager eyes.

"This old man is really amazing! He can actually heal his wounds after eating a few meals!? I have never heard of such a miraculous thing in my life!" Yuan said in surprise.

Standing up, the old man smiled at Xia Fei and said, "I'm leaving. Is it okay if I treat you to this meal?"

Xia Fei nodded hurriedly and said: "Old man, I wrongly blamed you. I don't know if you..."

In the middle of the conversation, the old man interrupted Xia Fei and said, "There is a teahouse in this city called Tianyan Pavilion. I will have morning tea there tomorrow morning. If you are interested, come with me."

"Okay, it's a deal." Xia Fei quickly agreed.

Obviously, this old man is by no means a simple gourmet. He can see the injuries that Xia Fei suffered in the past. Xia Fei admires this kind of eyesight. Besides, eating with this old man can also heal his wounds! This is an opportunity for Xia Fei!

Ordinary medicines are no longer effective on Xia Fei. Not to mention the difficulty of finding the treasures of genius and treasures, even if Xia Fei does find the treasures of heaven and earth, he is not 100% sure to cure his injuries.

The mysterious old man's dietary therapy provided Xia Fei with a brand new approach! And the effect is far better than anyone expected!

"There is an old saying that medicinal supplements are not as good as dietary supplements, and it seems to be true!" Xia Fei said excitedly as he watched the old man leave.

But soon, Xia Fei couldn't get excited because another bill with many zeros appeared in front of him.

...! .
