The Demon Concubine of God

Chapter 21: Transaction, the old doctor cannot win

Shen Wen released all the poor people who were subject to the divine doctor's drug testing, and destroyed their contracts in front of them. He found a place for them to be isolated, and had already told Qingque in advance that he would first ask her people to boil the medicine according to the prescription for curing the epidemic and give it to them to drink. They agreed to go to Chu Yanqiu to negotiate. If he didn't believe that the prescription was useful, he could ask him to ask the doctor to judge whether these people would get better.

Wutou watched these people being let go, and was so angry that he hurried to find his master. But his master did not show any arrogance after hearing this, and continued to study the medical book in his hand seriously.

Wutou had no choice but to retreat outside the room, stamping his feet unwillingly. But when he turned around, he saw Shen Wen, the enemy he hated and feared, standing behind him. He almost fell to the ground.

"Is your master in there?" Shen Wen asked indifferently without giving him any expression.

Wutou wiped the sweat from his forehead and stammered, "Uh...ah...inside"

Shen Wen asked him to open the door and report, and Wutou had to do so.

As soon as Shen Wen entered the room, he saw the old man with disheveled hair and buried in books, studying medical classics almost madly.

Shen Wen coughed twice as a reminder. The old man was extremely sensitive to his voice and looked up at her.

"Don't waste your time. You must have read it several times when you first discovered this disease."

After hearing this, the old man slumped down in his chair like a deflated ball.

Shen Wen said: "You experimented on those people, and you probably put a lot of effort into it. Although some died, some of them had their symptoms alleviated."

"I'm wondering how you did it. Can you show me your laboratory?" Shen Wen asked.

The old man asked in confusion: "What is a drug testing room?"

Shen Wen coughed lightly and said, "This is where you retreated to develop the secret recipe."

The old man laughed at himself and said, "You even found the place where I hid the precious pill, so how can you not find my retreat place?"

Shen Wen really didn't find the place, mainly because she had Fox as her assistant. The thatched cottage was quite large, covering an area of ​​more than 30 miles. There were a lot of herbal medicine rooms, wine making rooms, pill making rooms, and secret mechanical rooms and treatment rooms. She only looked for a few places, and was led by Fox to the treasure place where the elixir was hidden, and she got the elixir smoothly.

Shen Wen shrugged to show that she didn't know. In order to have a pleasant agreement with the old man, she said, "Don't be hostile to me like a prisoner."

"You..." the old man was angry.

Shen Wen raised her hand to interrupt, "You also know that I have some medical skills. How about this, the two of us can research the antidote together, and perhaps we will succeed by accident. Let's go check out a place first. In fact, I already have a research plan in mind, and I need to buy some equipment. You have to help me get it." After that, she gave the old man the list of herbs needed for the research, as well as the medical equipment she needed.

Doctor Sun took a look and felt that the herbs in it were still feasible. He looked at the instruments listed and asked in confusion: "Glassware? Room mirror? Mercury? Alcohol? Rubber? What is that?"

How did Shen Wen explain it? She said it was too dark to explain. Sure enough. There were no such things here. She asked unwillingly: "Look, haven't you heard of any of them?"

In fact, she also knows that this is difficult and unlikely to be found, but who knows, maybe some of me, a time traveler who came before her, has already made these things to pave the way for her, right?

As early as when she was a ghost following Qingque, she had asked Qingque to find these things. She was very clear about her situation. Not to mention when she was a ghost, even if she found a physical body one day, who knew what her fate would be. In ancient times, the law of the jungle was very cruel. Whether in a mansion or in the martial arts world, it was best to have something to protect yourself. And she estimated that her kung fu would not be able to recover to the best in a short time, so she could only use poison in times of crisis. After all, in the past few decades, she also carried poison with her at all times, not to kill the enemy but to let herself die happily when necessary.

There was nothing he wanted in Dr. Sun's laboratory. After all, the research of Chinese medicine and Western medicine was different. Looking at the pestles, small copper scales, small guillotines and charcoal stoves, it was Shen Wen's turn to be overwhelmed.

She scratched her head unwillingly and asked, "Is it true that the things I want are not there? Maybe you have seen them somewhere, but you may not care much about them. For example, glass, you have never heard of the word glass, but have you heard of colored glaze? It is a transparent thing, such as a transparent bottle or a transparent cup. Don't worry about alcohol, just white wine will do. I can process it into alcohol. And mercury, you should know about mercury, isn't it often used by Taoists when making elixirs?"

Doctor Sun thought for a moment and nodded, "I know this, but this mercury is only available to old immortals who have reached the level of Immortal Venerable. It is very difficult to obtain."

"That's fine. It's just that you cherish it more. It's not like there isn't any. With your status as a miracle doctor, you should be able to get some, right?" Shen Wen said.

The old man's beard stood up and snorted, "I can't do it. Do you think a country doctor like me can really do it? My title of miracle doctor is just a casual name given by people in the martial arts world." He waved his hand and said, "I can't do it."

Shen Wen blinked his bright eyes and said dissatisfiedly: "Why can't you get it? This thing is in the palace. Isn't your master the Second Young Master Ji? Why don't you go and ask him for it?"

The old man pretended not to hear and turned his back.

How come Shen Wen didn't know what he meant.

So she said, "I'm not taking it for free. At most, we can trade it for something else." She thought for a moment and said, "How about this? You help me get these three things, and I'll teach you how to use them to develop new medicines. For example, have you heard of a surgical operation that can heal wounds without dying? Have you heard of explosives as powerful as Thor's calamity?"

The old man was stunned when he heard her absurd words. He looked at her in disbelief and said, "What did you just say? You can survive by opening the stomach, and you can use the power of Thunder God to bring disaster to the world. You are just an ordinary person. Are you bragging?"

Seeing that he didn't believe her, Shen Wen didn't argue with him. She said, "Then tell me what you want. What do you think I can exchange with you for now?"

The old man stared at her, puzzled for a moment and asked: "What kind of poison did you put in the book? Why can't I find out afterwards? And how much do you know about the records in that half of the secret book?"

Shen Wen looked at the old man with sudden enlightenment, and said with an "Ah" sound: "Those! You want me to unlock the secrets, right? OK, I'll tell you whatever you want to know."

"What is Ou... Ou Le?" the old man asked. He was about to curse, thinking what nonsense this was, wasn't this a psychopath?

Shen Wen waved his hand and said, "That's not important... not important."

How wonderful! The ancients were so easy to fool. If you give him a watermelon, he won’t want it and insists on sesame seeds. Sesame seeds are fine.

In order to help the old man find what she wanted more quickly, she drew a picture for him and also drew a set of things used for autopsies, such as scalpels, forceps and tweezers, for him to review, and asked him to find a craftsman who could make them.

Wutou, who was standing beside him, stretched his neck to take a look. He was very surprised to see the set of glassware, staring at them in wonder, and didn't even realize that he was lost in thought.

Shen Wen looked at him like this and said nothing. She just continued to say to the old man: "You have seen my body. I don't want to die young, so I have to ask the doctor to extend my life."

When the word "extend life" was mentioned, Doctor Sun thought of her own life. She was so angry that her teeth were itching. It was this little girl who made him a dying ghost. He didn't even know how to save his life, but she was still asking him to extend her life.

As soon as Shen Wen saw his expression, she understood and said quickly: "Uh... hehe... we are all wanderers in this world, and no one wants to see the King of Hell so soon. Your epidemic is still mild now, don't worry, I will write a prescription now. Although it cannot cure the epidemic, it can control it." After that, she took the pen on the table to write the prescription.

The old man was too weak to show his anger. He held his chest and coughed several times.

Not to mention getting the medicine according to the prescription and boiling the medicine.

That night.

Shen Wen saw the forest and the big tree in her dream. She stroked the tree. In her previous life, she also had a tree as thick as this one. She always stroked the tree at that time. She didn't know if this tree was also the portal for her to escape and the emergency warehouse for her to fight.
