Su Jing didn't care about the commotion outside and remained focused on his task.
He had entrusted the management of the museum to Shen Hong and was currently sorting out the garbage, searching for any fabric trash that might contain good-looking ancient costumes while he also put aside many old-fashioned but good-looking ancient costumes aside.
Su Jing's ultimate hope was to find magical item-class fabric, as even the most beautiful ordinary magical item could not compare to a magical item made from such fabric.
However, despite searching for what seemed like hours, he had yet to find anything useful. In fact, aside from ragged clothes, he had found nothing of value. However, Su Jing refused to give up and continued searching.
He continued searching for a while and suddenly found a ragged cloth bag. When he opened it, an unpleasant odor wafted out, and he discovered some rotten dry foods with mold inside.
Initially, Su Jing was about to discard the bag, but he noticed a ragged small white bottle in the corner. His curiosity was piqued, and he decided to investigate. Releasing his spiritual force, he separated the rotten dry food and opened the bottle.
Inside, he saw four damp, rotten objects that were covered with mold. He couldn't discern what they were because of the mold.
"If they are packed in a bottle, could they be medicinal pills?" Su Jing couldn't help but be curious. If they were medicinal pills from The Immortal Gourd Universe then they would be worth researching.
Although the bottle was packed in a cloth bag, it meant that even if it was a medicinal pill, it would be of low rank. The cultivators of The Immortal Gourd Universe would definitely have storage magical items such as Five Yin Bags, Gourds, Sword Pouches, etc to store their valuables.
If it was packed in an ordinary bag, its rank must be limited. However, even if it was a low-grade medicinal pill from The Immortal Gourd Universe, it would be valuable on Earth.
"Little Bai, come and repair them," Su Jing said, beckoning his furry companion.
"Squeak-Squeak-Squeak," The Little White Mouse responded as he scurried over and released its Stand ability to repair the moldy objects.
The bottle quickly recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye and the mold on the four objects disappeared quickly, and the degree of decay became lighter rapidly as if time were flowing back…
After a while, the Little White Mouse stopped, and the bottle now had four round, bright red medicinal pills. Su Jing smelled them and was greeted by a strong medicinal fragrance.
"These should be medicinal pills without a doubt, but I don't know what their effects are," Su Jing murmured.
Naturally, he dared not swallow them directly. Otherwise, what would he do if they were poisonous? Even if they weren't poisonous, they might not be suitable for him. If he recklessly swallowed them and had a bad reaction, what would he do?
According to the usual practice, Su Jing wanted to catch a few mice and experiment with the effect of these pills on them. However, the problem was that there were only four medicinal pills.
If he had to test them several times before seeing the real effects, wouldn't that be too wasteful? It was even possible that he would still remain uncertain about their effects even after testing all four pills.
"Why don't I try it with ants this time." Su Jing's mind moved. The advantages and disadvantages of using ants are obvious.
The advantage is that they are very small, and Su Jing would be able to see the results after he feed them a little of the medicinal pill.
The disadvantage was that their body structure was too different from humans. The results of experiments on them may not be applicable to humans, unlike mice, whose various aspects were very similar to humans.
Su Jing was in a predicament, with only four medicinal pills and no apparent solution to his problem. Despite this, he decided to conduct an experiment using ants.
He extracted an ant from his Spirit Beast bag and fed it a small portion of the medicinal pill before observing it, but it had no reaction.
He released another one, fed it poison, and then a medicinal pill, but the medicinal pill effect proved to be useless and the ant died from the poison. Su Jing did not give up, and he attempted another experiment by injuring the ant and feeding it some of the pill.
After a moment, a miraculous scene appeared. The ant, which was almost disabled and could only spin in place, quickly recovered and fully regained its vitality in less than five minutes.
However, Su Jing could not be sure whether this was due to the effect of the medicinal pill. This is the downside of using ants in such experiments. If you pressed a regular ant with your finger, it might appear to be on the brink of death, but it may self-recover.
In some cases, even if you cut it in half, the ant could drag its upper body and crawl away. The vitality of ants cannot be compared to mice or humans. Therefore, it is not easy to distinguish whether it was due to its own vitality or the medicinal pill.
Su Jing devised a method to test the pill's effectiveness by creating two identical groups of ants, each with the same injury. One group had a broken leg, while the other group was severely disabled.
He selected one ant from each group and fed them the medicinal pill. The difference was quickly apparent, and the one that was fed the medicinal pill recovered much faster.
"It seems that this should be a healing medicinal pill," After Su Jing determined a general direction, he released a mouse, seriously injured it, and fed the remaining half of the medicinal pill fed to the ants to the mouse.
It was clear that the mouse, which was originally on the verge of death, quickly regained its vitality. In less than half an hour, the injury had improved significantly, and the effect was extremely remarkable.
"The effects of this medicinal pill are so amazing!" Su Jing was pleasantly surprised. Although the results obtained from the ant experiments were only a reference, the experiments on the mouse were almost conclusive.
Previously, Su Jing also found healing medicine powder in the "Zhu Xian" universe before, but it can only be applied to wounds to treat trauma.
This red medicinal pill was mainly used for internal injuries, with auxiliary effects on external injuries, and its effects were much more potent.
Su Jing's mind raced as he tried to recall the name of the medicinal pill. Suddenly, he exclaimed, "Wait, I remembered. This medicinal pill is red and has good healing effects. Could it be a Blood Pill?"
As he said the words, Su Jing realized that The Immortal Gourd Universe did indeed have a medicinal pill called Blood Pill. The main ingredient of this medicinal pill was deer blood, which had long been known for its excellent healing properties.
