Chapter Sixty: Preparing the Antidote



"good……"

Marilyn lowered her head shyly, but still obediently accepted the handkerchief.

Lin Yang was preoccupied with preparing the Chinese medicine and didn't notice the exchange between the mother and daughter, nor did he see the shyness hidden in Marilyn's eyes as she walked towards him step by step, clutching a handkerchief.

Perhaps it was because the nights in the mountains were exceptionally quiet, but Marilyn could even clearly hear her own heartbeat.

Lin Yang changed out of his dirty clothes and took out the Chinese medicinal herbs he had picked from the snakeskin bag, listing them off as if they were his own treasures:

"This is called dandelion in China. It has the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying. Rural families sometimes pick it to cook porridge. Although it tastes a bit bitter, it is very good for the body."

"This is called mugwort, and the one next to it is called honeysuckle."

As Lin Yang spoke, he categorized the medicines, while Marilyn and Luna assisted him, washing the Chinese herbs according to his instructions, cutting them into thin slices or small pieces, and then putting them into a pot to boil in a fixed ratio.

The three worked together seamlessly and methodically.

Soon, a large pot of richly colored and fragrant Chinese herbs was brewed.

Lin Yang eagerly served the mother and daughter two bowls: "Here, the first pot of medicine made from Chinese herbs is the most effective. Drink it and try it. It will greatly alleviate the symptoms of infectious diseases."

The mother and daughter were already in poor health, yet they were busy helping him find and prepare Chinese medicine.

His first dose of medicine was undoubtedly for the mother and daughter.

"Okay, thank you!"

The mother and daughter felt much more refreshed after smelling the medicine. They put their hands together in thanks to Lin Yang before devoutly drinking the medicine from the bowl.

The taste of Chinese medicine is quite unique. It is somewhat bitter, but there is also an indescribable fragrance that lingers in the mouth. Although it is a little difficult to swallow at first, it becomes a kind of enjoyment after a while.

The mother and daughter quickly finished the Chinese medicine in the bowl, and immediately felt a warm feeling in their stomachs, as if a warm current was spreading through their limbs and bones, and their internal organs felt as comfortable as if they were soaking in a hot spring.

Before long, the chill in their bodies was dispelled without them even noticing.

"It seems to actually work!"

Luna was overjoyed as she carefully felt the changes within her body.

For the past two weeks, she has been suffering from severe abdominal pain, sometimes so bad that she can't sleep and can only manage to get some rest around four or five in the morning.

But after drinking just one bowl of Chinese medicine, the abdominal pain had already subsided by more than half, and he felt completely comfortable.

Marilyn was equally excited and surprised to find that not only did she feel better, but she was even better than before she got sick.

Seeing that the mother and daughter had regained their energy, Lin Yang felt relieved and also scooped a small bowl of Chinese medicine from the pot and drank it.

Although he hadn't been exposed to polluted water sources much today, it would still be good to drink some as a precaution.

The root causes and treatments for infectious diseases have now been identified.

Next, a tough battle is about to begin.

He needs to be fully prepared and maintain his energy in order to bring down Ouyang Jianfei and Liu Baohua, save millions of disaster victims from suffering, and then vindicate traditional Chinese medicine and China!

The next day.

Lin Yang woke up early, put the remaining Chinese medicinal herbs from last night into his pocket, grabbed a pot and firewood, and resolutely set off for the town, facing the rising sun.

The mountain road was remote, and Lin Yang set off a little after seven o'clock, but did not arrive at the International Medical Assistance Center until 9:30.

Enemies meet on a narrow road.

Lin Yang had barely stepped into the aid center when a voice he knew all too well drifted over from the side. Compared to the past few days, it was as sarcastic and even more arrogant.

"Those foolish Southeast Asians are truly ungrateful. The combination of traditional Chinese medicine from our Zhonghua Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic and Western medicine from Master Ouyang is an unbeatable trump card, and they still dare to complain?"

“Developing drugs definitely takes time. We are human, not gods. How could we possibly invent a miracle drug right away?”

"They actually used this as a pretext to curse us and Mr. Ouyang, saying we were all talk and no action, and that we were unworthy of our positions. This is simply outrageous!"

Looking in the direction of the sound, Lin Yang saw Liu Baohua sitting angrily in the rest area of ​​the rescue center, dressed in a suit and tie, with his hair meticulously styled with gel. At first glance, he looked quite presentable.

I don't know who made him so angry.

I guess it's one of those reporters who love to stir up trouble.

Lin Yang glanced at him dismissively, preparing to go to the front desk to find the person in charge and ask them to send someone to remove the deer carcass that had contaminated the water source. But no sooner had he stood still than someone pointed at his back and shouted loudly:

"Isn't this that quack doctor from China? Who allowed him to come here!"

"What are the security guards doing? Hurry up and kick him out!"

Lin Yang raised an eyebrow, glanced back coldly, and found a bald man standing with his hands on his hips, staring at him with disgust, as if he were looking at the dirty garbage on the street.

"Lin Yang, how dare you come to the rescue center? Just because Mr. Ouyang isn't holding a grudge against you doesn't mean we, the younger generation, won't seek justice for him!"

The bald man was aggressive, and before Lin Yang could say anything, he pointed at Lin Yang's nose and started cursing.

Lin Yang pouted, not wanting to talk to him.

He's there to solve problems, and he doesn't want to create new conflicts with anyone unless absolutely necessary.

"Hello, could you please help me contact the head of the rescue center? I have something very important to discuss with him, it's about the epidemic."

Lin Yang nodded politely to the receptionist, but she didn't give him a pleasant look. She rolled her eyes, pointed at the bald man, and spoke in an unfriendly tone.

"That's the person in charge you're looking for. Just tell him what you need to say."

"..."

Lin Yang choked up, unsure of what to say.

It seems that after leaving town yesterday, Lin Yang's name is quite hated by everyone.

"Get out! Get out! Get out!"

The bald manager got even angrier when he saw that Lin Yang was ignoring him, and took three steps forward to grab Lin Yang's arm.

"This is a government office, not a market or a shelter. You're not even wearing protective gear. Are you trying to kill everyone here?"

"Those who can enter the rescue center are all outstanding medical teams from various countries and regions. If you spread the virus to them, you will be a sinner against the world and a sinner against humanity!"

Wow!

That's a really big hat.

Lin Yang held his breath, focused his energy in his dantian, and stood firmly on the ground as if rooted to the spot, remaining completely unmoved no matter how the bald-headed person in charge pulled him.

"I disinfected my clothes before I came."

He answered neither humbly nor arrogantly, deciding to temporarily disregard the bald manager's attitude towards him.

After all, Lin Yang's scandals are all over the place now, so it can't all be blamed on the person in charge.

Regardless, saving lives is the priority.

The spirit and morale of the soldiers.
