Wu Bei: "I am an alchemist. And if I guess correctly, Hailian is not effective on all babies, right?"
Princess Qingxun nodded: "About every four children born, one will be invalid. Such children can only be given up."
Wu Bei thought for a while and said, "Actually, without Hai Lian, you can still give children the ability to breathe in water."
Princess Qingxun was stunned for a moment: "No need for sea lotus? How is this possible! We, the Donghai clan, have lived in the sea for countless years and have never found anything that can replace the effect of sea lotus."
Wu Bei: "That's because you haven't figured out the nature of Hai Lian. You have lived in the sea for generations and have long had the ability to survive in sea water. It's just that this ability takes time to adapt. But the new born children have this kind of
The ability is in a sealed state. Once the umbilical cord is cut, it is difficult to survive in the sea. Moreover, newborns have a relatively slow adaptability. It takes at least a month for them to gradually activate this ability. So, your ancestors discovered Hailian
This kind of thing, some medicinal ingredients in sea lotus, can allow babies to awaken the ability to live in the water within a few days."
After hearing this, Princess Qingxun nodded vigorously: "You are so amazing. I heard the elders say it, and they said the same thing."
Wu Bei: "You can retreat. In three days, I will bring a medicinal soup. Drink it and all your children will be able to survive underwater immediately."
Princess Qingxun couldn't believe her ears: "Is it true? Your medicinal soup can be effective on all children?"
Wu Beidao: "Of course. The medicinal soup I made has quick effects and has no side effects. In addition, it is effective for all babies. The tragic situation where one out of every four babies will die will not happen again."
Princess Qingxun is still doubtful: "How can I trust you?"
Wu Bei slapped her in the face, causing Princess Qingxun's nose to bleed, and her eyes filled with stars. She said angrily: "You hit me?"
Wu Beidao: "I want you to understand that I can kill you at any time. With our current status, do I need to lie to you?"
Princess Qingxun covered her face in grievance. Even her father had never hit her since she was a child, but this damn mainlander actually hit herself!
But thinking that he could develop medicinal soup, she bit her teeth and asked: "In the future, if you give us medicinal soup, what do you want us to pay?"
Wu Bei: "You don't have to pay anything. Although you are sea people, you are also a member of the human race. As a saint, how can I sit back and watch you being oppressed and threatened by the gods? I will not only develop a medicinal soup for you, but I will also give you the prescription later.
For you guys."
Princess Qingxun was shocked: "Are you a saint?"
Wu Bei: "Why, I don't look like him?"
Princess Qingxun hurriedly bowed to the ground: "Your Majesty, this little girl is rude!"
Wu Bei: "Okay, retreat first, I will help you develop medicinal soup here."
Princess Qingxun no longer had any doubts and hurriedly retreated.
Wu Bei found some medicinal materials and prepared a decoction. His level of alchemy and elixir refining had surpassed that of many senior experts.
It didn't take long for him to find a compatible prescription and try to use the simplest method to cure it. After all, the Hairen's level of refining medicine was limited and it couldn't be too complicated, otherwise they wouldn't be able to prepare it.
After several attempts, he formulated a method that was more effective and easier to make.
Just at this moment, Princess Qingxun came, and she said: "Sage, I have withdrawn my troops!"
Wu Bei was drinking medicine from a medicine bowl. He tasted it and said, "Well, the effect is not bad, but it needs improvement. You take this bowl of medicine soup and give it to the newborn babies first, one cup for each baby."
Just use a spoon." After saying that, he also took out a small spoon and asked her to compare it.
Princess Qingxun quickly took the pot of medicine and hurried to Donghai Kingdom.
Wu Bei stayed where he was and continued to develop the medicinal decoction.
The next day there was a wave in the sea, and thousands of people landed on the island. One of them, a man with a royal air, dressed in gorgeous clothes, kowtowed to Wu Bei from a distance.
"King of the East China Sea, Qing Lingtao, see the saint!"
Wu Bei said "hmm" without looking at him and said, "No need to be polite. I'm refining medicine, so I won't welcome you."
Qing Lingtao walked over in small steps and stood quietly aside.
More than a quarter of an hour later, Wu Bei picked up a bowl of medicine and drank it. This was the third prescription he had developed, and the effect was even better.
After a few more minutes, he smiled and said: "This recipe is more effective, has fewer side effects, is easier to make, and has low cost. Yes, this is it."
He took out a pen and paper and quickly wrote down a prescription and the method of making the medicine. Then he said to Qing Lingtao: "Qing Lingtao, take this prescription and ask someone to refine it according to this prescription."
Qing Lingtao was overjoyed, took the prescription with both hands, and said, "Thank you, saint, for your grace!"
Wu Bei asked: "How do you deal with the gods?"
Qing Lingtao: "Back to the saint, without the threat of Hai Lian, we will not be afraid of the gods."
Wu Bei: "Yes. There is no war, which is good for both sides."
Qing Lingtao: "Sage, we have no way to repay you for your great kindness. I would like to invite the saint to stay in the palace for a few days, so that we can show some filial piety."
Wu Bei was also full of curiosity about the living conditions of the Hai people. He smiled and said: "Okay, then I won't bother you."
Qing Lingtao was overjoyed and quickly invited Wu Bei to the palace.
The place where the Sea People live is located in the underwater plain area. The terrain on the seabed is also very complex, including great plains, mountainous areas, hilly areas, etc. Moreover, the ocean is a three-dimensional space, so there are far more creatures than the land.
After escaping for a certain distance in the water, he saw a submarine basin with a very large area. The palace of the East China Sea Kingdom was located here. Approaching the palace, Wu Bei saw many sea people swimming around him, curious.
Looking at this stranger carefully, why does His Majesty the King respect him so much?
Wu Bei discovered that sea people are generally similar to land humans, except that they have webbed feet and fingers to facilitate swimming in the water. In addition, sea people have special lungs that can absorb air in the water and then discharge the water through their pores. Drainage
The pores, located on the back, will also produce thrust when draining water, thereby helping the body move forward.
Of course, most sea people have soft scales growing on some parts of their bodies, and these scales can reduce water resistance.
Wu Bei didn't feel any discomfort. After all, he was a saint and lived the same life no matter where he was. His body had strong adaptability.
As soon as he sat down, golden scales automatically grew on the surface of his skin. Seeing these scales, Princess Qingxun exclaimed: "Holy scales!"
Wu Bei is a saint. These scales are made of condensed energy and are extremely tough.
Wu Bei smiled and said: "You said this is the holy scale?"
Princess Qingxun nodded: "Saint, I have seen records in ancient books. Scales like this, with holy patterns emerging on them, are holy scales. The ancestor of our Donghai clan has this kind of holy scale, and he is also a
A saint."
Wu Bei: "So you are descendants of saints."
Qing Lingtao said: "Our Donghai Kingdom is one of the eight hundred vassal states in the sea. It is relatively powerful and can be ranked among the top twenty."
Wu Bei: "Oh, you are just a vassal state, so you still have a suzerain state?"
