Chapter 17 Medicine is Available (Part Two)



"Your Highness, is this round thing that looks like an apple also a vegetable? This old servant has never seen one before in all his life."

Another soldier, holding a head of broccoli, instinctively took a bite.

"And this, which looks like a flower and a grass, is it also a vegetable? It tastes like grass to me."

Which vegetable doesn't taste like grass?

Qin Yue Zhao found it both funny and heartbreaking.

The other guards happily knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the copper basin.

The next second, a pile of frozen chicken, duck, fish, beef, mutton, and dog meat fell from the sky, almost smashing their skulls.

Especially mutton; the Huo family army, who came from the capital, rarely had the opportunity to eat beef or mutton.

All the beef and mutton produced in Dagan were tribute items, and they had to be offered to the emperor first.

The emperor would freeze beef and mutton in underground ice cellars and only bring them out as dishes for celebratory banquets when soldiers made great contributions.

Ordinary soldiers could only afford to eat beef offal soup at the top restaurant in Kyoto, even if they had to pay a high price.

Dozens of sheep fell down, leaving the soldiers dumbfounded.

There is also beef, chicken, duck, and fish.

The beef was piled up like a mountain, still dripping with bright red blood, clearly indicating that it had just come from the slaughterhouse.

The chicken, duck, fish and meat are all salted, so one piece can be eaten with a bowl of porridge or rice, saving the need for salt.

The soldiers grinned from ear to ear as they looked at the vegetables and meat.

At this moment, many more small, square boxes fell out of it.

Chen Wan'er picked up a box of medicine and carefully examined the words on it.

But even after looking at it for a long time, I could only understand a very small part of it.

"Princess, what do these words mean? What's Yunnan Baiyao? What kind of medicine is Baiyao?"

"And what's in this glass bottle? It smells like medicinal wine."

"Oh, Princess, here are scissors and tweezers. Are these surgical instruments made of fine steel? They're even better than the tools used by the imperial physicians. Do gods also need these things when they get injured?"

"Princess, this bag is full of cotton and gauze, as white as snowflakes, and it feels soft and smooth to the touch. It's much better than the tattered and smelly cotton we use!"

Suddenly, a bunch of square boxes fell out of the treasure bowl.

The box contained strange mirrors that could reflect people's images when picked up.

Chen Wan'er accidentally pressed the round button, and the tablet screen flashed, displaying a beautiful wallpaper of the ends of the earth.

"Princess, look! There are paintings inside this!"

"But why would the gods send us these pictures? Wait... Oh dear, it's a demon-revealing mirror!"

She accidentally pressed the bottom shutter button, and her face was captured in the photo.

Seeing the grinning face on the tablet, she thought it was some kind of soul-capturing spell and screamed in fright.

Having experienced the matter of the gods, Qin Yue Zhao was no longer afraid of these things.

She picked up the tablet, wiped the dust off the surface, and tried pressing the round button. When she saw the words "Classification of Western Medicines" and "Handbook of Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine" written in large characters on the screen, she roughly guessed what the deity meant.

The gods don't read books on paper; instead, they absorb knowledge from these small boxes.

Just then, an A4 sheet of paper floated down from the treasure bowl.

The tablet operation steps were marked with numbers, and Qin Yue Zhao opened the first document according to the prompts.

The document contains an electronic version of the Xinhua Dictionary, which has several translations for the characters.

The second document contains modern medical knowledge, and explanations of medicines, surgeries, etc.

The third document contains military videos and explanations covering thousands of years of military strategy and tactics.

Looking at these, she immediately said to Chen Wan'er, "Quickly, distribute these things to the military doctors and deputy generals, and tell them to quickly learn the knowledge bestowed by the Ming Dynasty!"

Chen Wan'er didn't linger any longer and turned to run towards the military camp.

Unexpectedly, a hurried report came from outside:

"Princess, something terrible has happened! The enemy has launched a surprise attack on the west gate!"

The tablet in Qin Yue Zhao's hand fell to the ground with a "thud," and she immediately picked up her sword and ran out of the mansion.
