After soaking the medicine ingredients overnight in alcohol, Du Heng found that they were now ready for use.
After organizing everything, Du Heng called over Wu Buwei. "Buwei, come here. Today, your big brother is going to teach you how to make medicinal pills."
Wu Buwei put down his book and eagerly trotted after Du Heng to the decoction room.
In the morning, the decoction room was quite busy. Wang Lili was working with two others inside, with two more people cleaning the hospital rooms. Seeing Du Heng leading Wu Buwei in, Wang Lili teased with a smile, "Wow, our Dean is showing such concern for us by coming to give us a helping hand, huh?"
Stretching his neck to look inside, Du Heng saw a row of decoction pots emitting white steam. The small room was filled with a strong medicinal aroma.
"Are you guys almost done?"
"A few pots of medicine haven't been decocted long enough. It'll take about another ten minutes or so."
