As the dried flowers in the stone bowl were crushed into powder, she sequentially added various medicinal herbs according to the steps in her mind.
After one incense burning time, she kneaded the crushed herbs into a pill.
Then, using her sharp nails, she cut open the pad of her index finger, a drop of crimson blood emerged, accompanied by a rich medicinal fragrance.
With the permeation of the medicinal scent, the first to become restless were the two small snakes coiled on Nalan Yiren's shoulders, followed by the bamboo cages on the ground starting to vibrate. Poisonous insects, snakes, and ants began crawling out of the bamboo cages towards the source of the scent, their tiny eyes revealed greedy and fervent expressions.
Nalan Yiren dropped her blood onto the pill, and then swiftly put the injured finger into her mouth. When she took it out, the finger was completely unharmed, with no trace of the wound visible.
In merely a few breaths, the wound healed.
