Lin Yi also felt that it was too much of a coincidence that Old Lin's move had sent him to the bottom of West Star Mountain and to the front of the cave.
Moreover, when he first came back and showed the jade pendant in the box to Old Lin, Old Lin showed a very surprised expression! When he showed the small box to Old Lin, he didn't seem that surprised, as if he already knew about it.
But when he saw the jade pendant, he was very surprised. At that time, Lin Yi couldn't guess the meaning behind his expression, but now, when he thought about it again, he could more or less guess it! The only possibility was that Old Lin already knew about the cave, and knew that there was a small box in the cave, and that the box contained the Art of Dragon Mastery!
Otherwise, Old Lin wouldn't have concocted the body tempering medicine for him before this! But the existence of the jade pendant seemed to be out of Old Lin's expectations! Come to think of it, Old Lin should know about the jade pendant, but he was surprised that it was in the box too!
This meant that the jade pendant should be a very important treasure, but Old Lin didn't say anything, and Lin Yi knew that it was useless to ask. But if Old Lin wanted to say it, just like now, he directly said it.
"I know." Old Lin said, "That old friend of mine told me about this!"
"The fortune-teller?" Lin Yi asked.
"Yes, that's him!" Old Lin nodded.
"Can you be more specific?" Lin Yi frowned. "I feel that there are many things I don't know, including the sudden departure of Master. You must know about it."
"No, I will tell you when it's time." Old Lin's expression was normal, but his words were resolute.
"Alright, then let's continue researching the prescription." Lin Yi knew Old Lin's personality, and so he didn't say anything more. He directly passed the recipe to Old Lin, saying, "You can get most of the common ingredients in here, you have a lot of them in your herb garden!"
In the valley west, Old Lin had his own herb garden, and there were many precious herbs planted there. Most of the herbs on this prescription could be found, but there were a few that Lin Yi hadn't even heard of.
"Grain Grass? Resting Fruit? Horsetail bamboo … "Old Lin muttered to himself. Then, he shook his head and said," I've never heard of it either. Let's look it up in the Medicine Encyclopedia. Maybe it's in one of the ancient books … "
"You still want to investigate?" Lin Yi couldn't help but feel bitter after hearing this. Xiaoxiao's Fire Spirit Fruit was already a lot of effort, and he only found a little bit of information. Now that he had lost three ingredients, how long would it take?
"It shouldn't be too hard to find. I don't think it's a heaven-defying treasure like the Fire Spirit's Fruit. It's just rare. Maybe there are other names for it. Let's look around!" Old Lin stood up and walked towards the study.
Lin Yi, on the other hand, could only follow Old Lin into the study.
There were many books in Old Lin's library, but there were scanned copies in Lin Yi's computer. Lin Yi browsed through the books on the computer while Old Lin browsed through the bookshelves. Old Lin wasn't used to using a computer, but the two of them didn't have any conflicts.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
Old Man Lin was right about these three herbs. They were all extremely rare herbs. Striped Grass and Horsetail Bamboo had other common names, and they were all grown in Old Man Lin's herb garden. As for the Resting Fruit, it was nowhere to be found!
Old Lin could only ask a few suppliers, but there were no results. Lin Yi had Fatty Lai look for it as well, but even with Miracle Doctor Guan's medical company's channels, there was no news of the Resting Fruit. It seemed like this ingredient was quite rare.
"Can we not put this ingredient in?" Lin Yi asked with a frown, but shook his head after asking, "I don't think so, the resting fruit is part of the recipe, it's used to suppress the fire and focus the mind, it's a must …"
With Lin Yi's medical skills, naturally, he could understand the effects of the ingredients in the recipe. Even if he couldn't write the recipe, he could at least look at it and understand it.
"Why are you still asking when you already know?" Old Lin shrugged and said, "There's nothing I can do. I couldn't find the common name of the Resting Fruit in the information. I only found some introductions to its medicinal properties and pharmacology. This means that this thing definitely exists, but I don't know where it grows."
"Yeah, there are many ingredients for calming the fire and calming the spirit. The Resting Fruit isn't a necessary ingredient. If it was a rare ingredient, it would've been replaced by other ingredients a long time ago. Right, replaced!" Lin Yi's eyes lit up as he said that. He slapped his thigh and exclaimed, "It can be replaced! Why didn't I think of that earlier?"
"Well, if we're talking about replacing, there are some ingredients with similar properties and pharmacology!" Old Man Lin nodded and said, "I'll look into the effects of the fruit of peace and find a herb that's similar to it …"
"Don't bother, I only know one!" Lin Yi shook his head. It seemed like he and Old Lin had walked into a dead end. Changing recipes was his forte. The Golden Creation recipe and the Pill of Life Extension and Toxin Cleansing recipe were all modified by Lin Yi, and there were no problems with the effects. Lin Yi was very confident in this!
In the next few days, Old Lin and Lin Yi started making the body strengthening medicine. Tang Yun, Mengyao, and Yushu knew that Lin Yi was preparing for the next step of his training, so naturally, they wouldn't disturb him. Plus, they hadn't had enough fun yet. Goudan brought them around the forest every day, and they had a lot of fun!
After everything was prepared, Lin Yi prepared the body strengthening medicine for both internal and external use. Then, he started his solitary meditation. With Old Lin guarding him, it was the safest place for Lin Yi! Old Lin's attack power wasn't any weaker than Goudan's. Goudan was a bit stronger, but Old Lin was enough to deal with normal enemies. Plus, Old Lin had a clear advantage over Goudan, and that was the body of someone who had mastered the Golden Shield. Normal people wouldn't be able to do anything to Old Lin.
But Old Lin and Goudan were the same. Because of the spring, they couldn't leave Star West Village.
