Just like last time, Li Shizhen finished dealing with the patients before leading Qin Chuan into the backyard.
Li Shizhen's wife was not present this time; she was said to have taken two female disciples up the mountain to gather herbs.
Qin Chuan put down the large black box. "Have you used up all the medicine from last time?"
Li Shizhen sighed, "Besides some gauze and alcohol, everything else is almost gone, especially the cold medicine. It's been cold and snowy lately, and many people have caught colds.
