Chapter 580 We all need to find the Wucheng Pharmaceutical Association!
The noisy competition venue suddenly became quiet. As one big shot after another walked in, the scene began to get busy again. Those who knew about the situation began to introduce them to their companions one by one, saying this was the big shot in the capital, that was the person in charge of this event, and so on.
Some people also speculated that the unknown young woman standing next to the chief referee should be the president of the Wucheng Pharmaceutical Association.
As the big guys took their seats one by one, the people from the Wucheng Pharmaceutical Association were also guided to the front, but that place turned out to be the Fuhai Pharmaceutical Association, which had been disqualified from the competition!
Feeling the burning, envious and jealous eyes from both sides, the pharmacists of the Wucheng Pharmaceutical Association were also very confused. Everything that happened today was a bit too dreamy.
The venue of the competition is also very simple. It is just a modified version of the original venue of the Imperial Capital Medicine Association. But the key is that this venue gathers many precious medicinal materials, which are now placed behind each medicine association in a quite shocking manner.
At a glance, they are all medicinal herbs that are almost extinct in the apocalypse. Whoever brings more medicinal herbs will be more confident.
The spotlights suddenly turned on and sounds came from various machines.
"Quiet! Ahem! Hello?" The sound of a microphone came over, and a man in glasses holding a microphone walked out from under the lights. He continued as if nothing had happened: "Everyone, take your positions... Then, I declare that the game officially begins now!" It was as if the foreplay of the game that was interrupted for several hours had not happened at all, and there was no explanation or anything.
Of course, the presidents of the pharmaceutical associations and other staff members present at the scene did not dare to speak, as the Fuhai Pharmaceutical Association had a previous experience.
"First of all, I'm the speaker for this competition, the host. You can call me Xiao Ai. From now on, I'll be sharing the opinions of the audience following this competition based on live data, and I'll also be answering any questions from the audience. The audience can vote for their favorite pharmaceutical association, but of course, even if you vote a lot, it won't count... haha, because this competition is decided by a chief referee."
The host walked quickly around the competition venue, clapping his hands and saying, "Everyone is clear about the rules. Okay, let's get the props!"
The Wucheng pharmacists, who had just taken their positions and started the competition, blinked and asked quietly, "What are the rules?"
Jingshu raised an eyebrow. "Oh no! I've been so busy trying to figure this out these past few days that I've forgotten the rules. But I heard they're really simple. One word: do it!"
Then I saw the props coming up.
Shockingly, there were patients being carried in on stretchers! There were exactly 30 of them, corresponding to the 30 pharmaceutical associations. Soon, Jing Shu saw an old man lying on a stretcher, clutching his stomach and wailing. He had tubes connected to his body, ending in sealed bags filled with parasites that had flowed out of his body.
In fact, the others on the stretchers were all in the same situation, crying out in pain. If nothing unexpected happened, they would be drained alive in a dozen days.
Only patients whose internal organs are eaten by parasites will experience such intense pain.
It wasn't so exciting during the previous rehearsal. They directly brought out the parasite patients. Oh my god, this was even broadcast live on big data... However, the competition was not promoted. Those who paid attention to it were generally the people in power in various places.
Just imagine the scenario in which the medicinal materials might stimulate the parasites to jump around during the treatment process... The pharmacists on the scene all looked a little gloomy. This was different from the agreed rules. The previous simulation only said that the medicinal materials to be studied should be taken out and then tested.
"As everyone knows, the purpose of this competition is to select one pharmaceutical association from among the various pharmaceutical associations that has the ability to provide large quantities of raw materials, or to replace Bodhi. The association will be given ownership and will be able to concentrate all resources to produce this in-demand drug.
Now, we ask the various pharmaceutical associations to administer the medications they've prepared over the past few days to these patients. Anesthesia is no longer effective for these patients. This round of competition will primarily assess the analgesic and inhibitory effects of the alternatives.
By the way, the use of Bodhi herbs is prohibited in this round of competition."
Jing Shu touched her chin and instantly understood the meaning of this competition. It turned out that the first round of competition was to find a substitute for Bodhi? According to the memory of the previous life, this time the parasite seemed to have other options besides Bodhi.
Deworming and insecticides have no effect.
Da Nai stood beside Jing Shu, still trembling a little. She was a little overwhelmed. The judges on the stage had all cast friendly glances at her. The most incredible thing was that they even smiled at her. Are all the big bosses nowadays so easy to talk to? She turned her head to look at Jing Shu and shook her head. Jing Shu was obviously the boss, right?
"Ah? Why is that? We're not allowed to use Bodhi in the first round, so what should we use? Many people in the Pharmaceutical Association listened to you and planted Bodhi, and they all want to show off their skills this time."
"President, in the past few days, according to your instructions, we have tested several other drugs, but the theory is useless, and the practical application is even more..."
"Otherwise, we can only increase our immunity and live longer on our own."
"What's the point if we don't cure it? We're just suffering."
Jing Shu shook her head, then raised her hand and said, "We in Wucheng give up this round!"
There was an uproar at the scene.
"Give up what?"
"Wucheng gave up this round? What were you thinking?"
"I heard that there are a large number of Bodhis in Wucheng. I don't mind this round of substitute competition. This time, they are a strong competitor."
"So what? No matter how many Bodhis, they won't be enough. Bodhis can only suppress it. The most urgent thing now is to find a substitute and replace it."
The old man lying on the ground screamed, "Ah? What should I do? It hurts so much. Who can make this old man stop feeling the pain? I'd rather die!"
There were gloating laughter from all around: "Old Zhou is so miserable, haha, he finally came here to try the medicine, but he didn't expect them to give up. Ouch, it hurts, it hurts so much, can't you be gentler?!"
The host Xiao Ai nodded without any surprise, and saw that the scoreboard on the big screen showed that Wucheng scored 0 points in the first round of the game.
The referees sitting on the stage were whispering to each other, but it was too far away to hear what they were saying.
The small incident soon passed, and other pharmaceutical associations began to cooperate with professionals and no longer paid attention to Wucheng.
Jingshu whispered a few words and then sat aside to watch the show.
Wang Danai nodded excitedly in agreement, then took out a small black pill from his arms and fed it to the old patient assigned to Wucheng.
Just as the members of the pharmaceutical association were busy and sweating profusely, an excited voice rang out: "I'm fine! I don't feel any pain at all, I'm completely healed! Who was laughing at me just now?"
"Who's better? Is it that old man, Lao Zhou? Is he better?"
"Bullshit, didn't Old Zhou give up the competition?"
The old man on the ground jumped up lively, walked over to the man who had just laughed at him, and kicked him lightly: "Old taro, we have known each other for so long and you still laugh at me, look at me! Although I gave up the competition, I have the antidote. How about asking me for help? I will beg him for you?"
"Old Zhou, now that you're well, of course I want to go too. I don't want to be treated here anymore. Damn it, you've been tormenting me for so long!"
"I also want Old Zhou's medicine to treat me!"
