Seeing Liu Tan's expression change from joy to a frown, Bi Gao couldn't help but ask cautiously, "Your Highness, are there any herbs we don't have?"

Oh, yes, we also have to consider the issue of medicinal materials. All medicinal materials were discovered little by little with the progress of human science. Why haven't we developed Golden Ruyi Powder yet? Is it because no one has thought of it or because there are not enough medicinal materials?

If no medicinal materials are found, this road is almost blocked!

Liu Tan was a little unwilling to give up. After thinking it over, he decided to ask someone to find the herbs first: "Bring me some paper and pen. Let's check if we have these herbs!"

Bi Gao immediately asked someone to bring paper and pen, and Liu Tan took it and wrote down in order: turmeric, rhubarb, phellodendron, atractylodes, magnolia bark, tangerine peel, liquorice, raw arisaema, angelica dahurica, and radix trichosanthis.

Bi Gao didn't know any medical skills, so he just asked someone to give the prescription to the medicine boy.

Liu Tan also specifically instructed: "Tell him not to wake up the doctor yet, but to find these herbs first, and then we can work out the proportions."

Bi Gao and the young eunuch were confused and wondered what the ratio was.

Liu Tan ignored them and just sat there frowning, thinking about the page of the book he had just seen in his dream.

The introduction of this medicine is very simple, and he shouldn't have ignored the ratio. Well, if anyone is to blame, it's his excitement after seeing the effect.

After all, this is a pure Chinese medicine recipe for clearing heat and reducing inflammation. In today's world where there are no Western medicines and Chinese medicine is not very developed, this thing should be very useful.

Just as Liu Tan was thinking, he suddenly felt a heat between his eyebrows. When he came to his senses, he found a hand trying to smooth his eyebrows. He turned around and saw Lu Xuan who had opened his eyes.

Liu Tan's eyes suddenly lit up: "Are you awake?"

Lu Xuan seemed a little weak, and responded in a hoarse voice.

Before he could say anything, Liu Tan bombarded him with questions: "Are you hungry? Are you thirsty? Are you in pain?"

Lu Xuan didn't know which one to answer first after being asked three questions in a row. In the end, he could only say, "Water."

Liu Tan quickly asked someone to pour some water, but he didn't go to feed Lu Xuan himself. He knew that he was probably not very good at taking care of people. What if he made a mistake and it affected Lu Xuan's wound?

Lu Xuan took a sip of water and asked, "What time is it?"

Liu Tan was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Bigo. He had even forgotten to check the time.

Bigao said quickly: "It's already one quarter past seven."

Liu Tan turned around and said, "Do you want to rest first or take care of something?"

Although he knew that he should persuade Lu Xuan to rest, considering that Xiao Wusun had to handle all matters by himself and there was no one to look after him, he probably had to arrange everything first even if he wanted to rest.

Lu Xuan didn't answer. Instead, he carefully looked at Liu Tan's face and frowned before asking, "You didn't rest?"

Liu Tan said subconsciously: "I just fell asleep."

As soon as Lu Xuan heard it, he knew that he must not have slept for long, otherwise Liu Tan's face would not be so pale.

This paleness didn't come from weakness, but rather from not resting for a long time. So he asked, "Is it troublesome?"

Liu Tan quickly said, "It's not a big deal. Everything has been stabilized. There are just a lot of injured people. Don't worry, I'm trying to find a solution."

Lu Xuan responded and turned to say something to the people around him.

Liu Tan knew that he might need to understand the situation first, so he stood up and tried to avoid him. Although he didn't understand, it was still better to avoid suspicion.

Lu Xuan subconsciously grasped his wrist. Liu Tan turned to look at him and said, "I have something to deal with. I'll come see you later."

Lu Xuan came back to his senses and realized that it would be best for the two of them to separate at this point, so he smiled and said, "I'm much better now. You don't have to worry about me. Go and rest first. Don't come over if you're not fully rested!"

Although Lu Xuan wanted to put on a serious face, he just couldn't be serious with Liu Tan.

Liu Tan didn't take it to heart. He was still young and staying up all night was no big deal.

He nodded to Lu Xuan and walked out with Bigo.

When they were some distance away from Lu Xuan's tent, Bi Gao whispered, "Your Highness, these bandits are indeed acting strangely."

Liu Tan was a little surprised: "Huh? What did you find out?"

That's not right. No one came to report. If Jiang Chong really asked about it, he would definitely tell him first. Bi Gao didn't take over, so how would he know about this?

Bigao shook his head and said, "No, just now, Little Kunmi immediately ordered his men to investigate the movements of Cheshi, Dongqiemi, and Huhu. There are countless small countries in the Western Regions, like the stars in the sky. There are also more than ten countries of varying sizes close to our route. He was able to locate these three countries so quickly, so there must be a reason."

Liu Tangang nodded seriously, then suddenly stopped.

Bi Gao thought he had thought of something and asked cautiously, "Your Highness...?"

Liu Tan slowly turned around and looked at him: "I remember... you don't seem to speak Wusun language."

Bigo immediately understood what Liu Tan meant and said with an embarrassed smile, "Well...I've heard this a lot."

Liu Tan was so exhausted that he almost yelled: "Just listening a lot will make you learn it? Then why can't I learn it?"

#I always feel like I don't fit in with you#

But at that moment, he even considered learning Wusun, so he could at least communicate with Lu Xuan... Huh? Why was he thinking about communicating with Lu Xuan? Lu Xuan's Chinese was very good, so there was no need for him to learn Wusun.

But he suddenly thought of the song Lu Xuan sang yesterday, and suddenly felt a little dazed. Because so many things had happened, the memory of singing and dancing around the campfire had become a little fuzzy. Now thinking back, it was just something that happened last night.

Thinking of this, he quickly turned around and asked Bi Gao, "Did you understand what Lu Xuan sang yesterday?"

Bigao paused slightly, lowered his head and said, "This... I am incompetent. I have only dabbled in Wusun language and can only understand a little bit. The song that little Kunmi sang... I didn't understand it."

Liu Tan had no doubts about it. After all, the tone of the words would change when singing, so it was nothing for people who had just learned a language to not be able to hear the lyrics clearly.

Thinking of this, he simply didn't take it to heart. He could just ask Lu Xuan when he had time.

Bigo glanced at Liu Tan secretly and breathed a sigh of relief when he found that he didn't care much. In fact, it was not that he didn't understand, but he really didn't know how to tell his highness.

If Lu Xuan's song is translated into Chinese, its meaning is very close to the two lines of poetry: "There are trees on the mountain and branches on the trees, my heart is sweet to you but you don't know it."

Bi Gao felt that if his prince knew about the current situation, what would happen if he was soft-hearted and... agreed?

This must not be said.

Liu Tan put the matter behind him and prepared to go wash up and change his clothes. Since last night, there was the bonfire party and the escape, and his body was not only sweaty, but also smelled of blood. He didn't feel anything when he was nervous before, but now he couldn't stand it.

Especially after returning home, Liu Tan accidentally looked in the mirror and found that his face was white and black, like a calico cat. When he thought about Lu Xuan opening his eyes and seeing him like this, he almost went crazy!

After quickly washing up, while Bi Gao and Miao Rui were helping him dry his hair, Huo Guang stood outside and said, "Your Highness..."

Before he finished speaking, Liu Tan said, "Come in."

As soon as Huo Guang came in, he saw Liu Tan sitting on the couch with his hair disheveled and only wearing a shirt, hugging his knees. He looked even younger.

Before he could speak, Liu Tan asked curiously, "Didn't the captain go to rest? Is there something important that brought you here in such a hurry?"

Huo Guang then said, "Your Highness, where did you get this recipe?"

Liu Tan was speechless for a moment, and finally said something random: "It was just... a dream... what's the matter?"

Huo Guang was stunned. He thought that the recipe was given to him by the Wusun people. Although it didn't look like it, only the Wusun people might have the recipe that they didn't know about.

I didn't expect it was just a dream.

Huo Guang didn't say anything, but simply said, "Then...didn't the doctor who prescribed the medicine for Your Highness in the dream explain where to find the things listed above?"

Liu Tan's heart skipped a beat. "What? Are the herbs listed here not available? Are there any substitutes?"

Huo Guang said uncertainly, "I don't know about substitutes. Some things seem to exist, but they are not exactly the same. The medicine boy didn't dare to dispense medicine casually, nor did he dare to disturb the doctor. I happened to see him crying when I passed by."

Liu Tan: ...

For a moment, I felt a little sorry for this little medicine boy.

He felt a little toothache and said, "Who doesn't know?"

Huo Guang walked over and asked, "First of all, what is turmeric?"

Liu Tan never expected that the first one would go wrong. He rubbed his forehead and said, "It seems it has another name called Baodingxiang."

Huo Guang nodded: "So it's Baoding incense."

Liu Tan breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and immediately thought that these herbs might not exist, they just might have different names!

He simply asked Huo Guang to bring the paper over and began to write down the aliases of these medicinal herbs on it. For example, Huangbai is also known as Berberis, Atractylodes is also known as Shanjing, and Baizhi is also known as Fuzhi.

After writing it down, he handed it to Huo Guang and asked, "What about this?"

Huo Guang heaved a sigh of relief after reading it: "We have all of these."

After a pause, Huo Guang asked hesitantly, "Your Highness, I've never heard of these nicknames before. Could it be... that they are really names from the immortal realm?"

After hearing this, Liu Tan wanted to tell Huo Guang with great sorrow and indignation not to attribute everything to feudal superstition!

But thinking about it, dreaming about something like this was inherently feudal and superstitious, so he also put on an unfathomable look and said, "Don't ask."

Huo Guang raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "We have all the herbs, but... Your Highness, don't you know how much of each to use?"

Liu Tan was embarrassed. "When I saw that this medicine could clear away heat, detoxify, reduce swelling and relieve pain, I… woke up in excitement. I… don't remember what happened next."

Huo Guang: ...

He had thought of many possibilities, but he had never thought of this one!

Fortunately, the doctor didn't sleep for too long, probably because he had a strong sense of responsibility, and woke up not long after.

Liu Tan had already fallen asleep. After receiving the prescription, he was stunned for a moment, then squatted there to study it for a long time, so long that the medicine boy was a little scared and was wondering whether to wake him up. Suddenly, the doctor's eyes lit up and he stood up and said, "Excellent! Your Highness, in this prescription, rhubarb clears heat and purges heat toxins, promotes blood circulation and edema, and promotes blood stasis, treating carbuncles, boils, etc.; Phellodendron chinense clears heat and dries dampness, detoxifies and reduces swelling; Turmeric promotes qi and breaks up blood stasis, and relieves pain; Angelica dahurica dissipates dampness and relieves pain, reduces swelling and discharges pus; Atractylodes lancea wilts and dispels filth; Magnolia officinalis wilts and eliminates phlegm; Tangerine peel wilts and resolves phlegm; Arisaema strychnos ...

The medicine boy beside him whispered, "But... Master, Your Highness didn't say how much to put in. Otherwise, Your Highness, please have another dream."

The doctor waved his hand and said, "Foolish! Now that we know the role of the drug, isn't it easy to find a solution? Don't bother His Highness with such a trivial matter!"

After the doctor finished speaking, he happily asked the medicine boy to bring all the medicine. After he finished preparing the medicine, he hesitated and said, "This... I'm afraid I need to find someone to test the medicine. Go and ask if there is anyone willing!"

Liu Tan didn't know that the doctor had already started working on the prescription while he was sleeping. In his dream, he was thinking about looking at the prescription again, but he ended up dreaming of a lot of random things and didn't get the prescription at all!

After waking up, Liu Tan had a severe headache. Huo Guang happened to come over to report the following situation.

Liu Tan looked closely and found that some of them said death due to drugs. He couldn't help but ask, "What's going on?"

Huo Guang said, "These were already in a dying state, so the doctor used them to test the medicine. Some survived, and some..."

Liu Tan: ...

Although there seems to be nothing wrong with this, this medicine is not a rescue drug. If a dying person can come back to life after taking it, it may not be because of the medicine.

Liu Tan hesitated for a moment before asking, "Has the medicine been prepared?"

Huo Guang smiled, a rare moment on his face. "Yes, they have been formulated, and some of them have already had some effect, but..."

At this point, a gloomy look flashed across Huo Guang's face again. Liu Tan's ears twitched, and his whole body tensed up. "Just what?"

Huo Guang said: "There are still many people whose wounds are too large to stop the bleeding. Even burning and using medicine are ineffective..."

Is the wound too large? Can't stop the bleeding?

Liu Tan was stunned for a moment, then excitedly slammed the small table next to him, scaring the people present.

"Damn it, why did I forget to sew it up!"

The author has something to say: I almost forgot to write this, note ① is a quote from the Medical Network, in fact, the main function of this medicine is to reduce inflammation of wounds, the level of technology is not enough or it is not enough in the Western Regions.
