Chapter 20 - 20 Repair of the Alchemy Book Completed

You all sit first, I’ll go get the dishes out.

Lin Jing said, walking toward the kitchen, and soon came out with the dishes in hand.

Immediately after, the three of them sat around the stone table. Lin Jing served the rice, and Luo Luo sensibly placed the first bowl in front of Ning Yue.

“Mother, here.”

Ning Yue, with a smile on her face, took the bowl.

“Mom, the food Uncle Lin makes is really delicious. Try it and see.”

“Okay.”

Ning Yue nodded and picked up a piece of green vegetable to taste.

Instantly, the delicious flavor filled her mouth. Ning Yue’s eyes lit up, and she took another piece of egg, silky and tender, still incredibly tasty…

“Mom, how is it? Uncle Lin’s cooking is much better than yours, right…”

Luo Luo, unintentionally, spoke her mind.

Upon realizing what she said, she quickly covered her mouth and then buried her head in her bowl.

Ning Yue shot her a glance.

However, she didn’t say anything, as it was evident that her own cooking skills were worlds apart from Lin Jing’s.

She knew herself well and naturally didn’t blame Luo Luo.

“Lin Daoyou, I didn’t expect your cooking skills to be so good.”

Ning Yue praised him during the meal.

“My mother passed away when I was young and my father was always busy, so I had to develop these cooking skills.”

Ning Yue hadn’t anticipated that this would touch upon Lin Jing’s family history, and she quickly apologized.

“I’m sorry, Lin Daoyou.”

“It’s fine, it’s all in the past.”

Afterward, there was a pause of silence…

“Ning Daoyou, why do you need to go to someone else’s home to practice alchemy?”

Lin Jing broke the silence first in an attempt to change the subject.

“That family is rather special. They grow their own Spirit Grass and want to turn all the harvested Spirit Grass into Elixir Medicine in response to the recent beast tide.”

“They don’t want to cooperate with other powers and share the benefits, so they decided to hire Alchemists to come and process the Spirit Grass into Elixir Medicine.”

“I see.” said Lin Jing.

“Daoyou, I looked at your alchemy book during my free time today and made some amendments, though due to time constraints, I haven’t made many changes.”

“I estimate that it will take over half a month to complete all the revisions.”

“You have worked hard, Ning Daoyou.” Lin Jing expressed his gratitude.

“Mom, are you going to teach Uncle Lin alchemy? Didn’t you say Grandfather’s Alchemy Technique should not be readily passed on to others?”

At this, Ning Yue glared at Luo Luo.

“Eat your meal, don’t interrupt adults when they are talking.”

“Oh…”

Under Ning Yue’s stern gaze, Luo Luo bowed her head and shoveled rice into her mouth, seemingly channeling her dissatisfaction into the food.

Then, Ning Yue resumed discussing alchemy with Lin Jing…

The sunset painted the sky, and beneath the trees, two adults and one child sat at the table, enjoying their dinner.

If a stranger were to see this, they would certainly envy this seemingly blissful family…

Perhaps because Lin Jing’s cooking was too delicious, Ning Yue ate two more bowls today than usual.

After dinner, as the evening darkened, Ning Yue did not leave but instead began to explain the Alchemy Technique to Lin Jing.

Luo Luo was also there, but soon found it boring and ran off to count stars.

The two continued talking until it was nearly Zi Time, with Luo Luo nearly unable to keep her eyes open, before they both left.

And Lin Jing, after their departure, did not go to the System Space either.

The System Space was different from the outside world; the Spirit Rice and Seven-Star Grass inside didn’t require any care from him.

And now, Ning Yue was helping repair the pill book for Lin Jing, so alchemy could wait until the book was fully restored.

Therefore, there was no need to waste entry time into the System Space; it was entirely possible to accumulate the time instead.

……

The following days continued in this fashion.

In the mornings, Ning Yue would bring Luo Luo over and then go practice alchemy.

In the evenings, she would return to explain alchemy knowledge to Lin Jing, each time staying until late at night before leaving.

And the restoration of the pill book was nearing completion.

Lin Jing and Luo Luo spent most of their time at home, though of course, they occasionally went out for a stroll.

During this time, they only saw Wei Zhengqing twice; he seemed to be quite busy as well and often went out.

As for the Zhang siblings, who knew what they were up to during this period—they were frequently seen heading out.

Though they occasionally crossed paths and exchanged greetings, the twins always excused themselves, claiming to be busy and never brought up the matter of returning the Spirit Stones.

However, it was only five Spirit Stones; Lin Jing didn’t really care about it.

If this had been a few months earlier, tsk tsk…

Five Spirit Stones would have been unimaginable.

People really do change…

Apart from them, Ning Yue had been eating at Lin Jing’s place every day during this period and had visibly filled out a bit, giving her a more charming appearance.

Nevertheless, Ning Yue mentioned that she should be able to finish repairing the pill book by tomorrow, and by then, 70 hours had already accumulated in the System Space.

Next, they just had to wait for the restoration of the pill book…

That day, Ning Yue came back with good news: the pill book was finally repaired.

At the dinner table, Ning Yue handed the repaired pill book to Lin Jing.

“I’ve made some revisions to the contents and supplemented some of the missing parts; it should be fine now,” she said.

“If you encounter any problems while practicing alchemy, tell me in time, and I will offer you solutions,” she added.

“Sure,” Lin Jing answered.

Today, they wrapped up quite early. After more than half a month of instruction, most of what needed to be conveyed had been covered.

The most critical element of alchemy was still experimentation; only through continuous experimentation could one gradually correct mistakes.

In the evening, Lin Jing, alone, perused the newly repaired pill book. Areas that were previously obscure were now clear to him.

Even some of his previous thoughts were mentioned in the book.

That night, he still didn’t practice alchemy but went to bed early instead.

He needed to reread the pill book and understand its contents.

Perhaps because of the time spent listening to Ning Yue’s explanations, it only took three days for Lin Jing to memorize the content of the pill book and reach a level of thorough understanding.

Only on this evening did Lin Jing enter the System Space again.

Arriving at the Alchemy Room, Lin Jing prepared the materials and began his first attempt at refinement.

Lighting the fire, he added the Spirit Grass in batches and covered the Pill Furnace.

Lin Jing’s movements were fluid and executed in one smooth motion.

He then carefully controlled the flame…

After half an hour, the fragrance wafted through the air, and Lin Jing was certain the pill would be a success.

Indeed

Before long, a system prompt appeared.

“Elixir Medicine refinement successful, Alchemy proficiency +6”

He lifted the lid of the furnace and took out the Elixir, inspecting it in his hand.

The Medium Grade Fasting Pill looked smoother than the previous ones.

Indeed

The problems with the previous pill book had indeed been significant. Now, after the pill book had been repaired, the first refinement yielded a Medium Grade Elixir, and there were three of them.

Then, the Pure Elixir would certainly be within reach soon.
