Chapter 723: Don’t interfere in other’s affairs

This big box is more than half a person's height. It is obviously specially made. It is covered with a thin copper sheet on the outside and made of wood on the inside. It is very heavy. I guess someone who doesn't know kung fu can't walk more than a few steps while carrying it.

But it’s very delicately made.

The small bottle inside has a hole drilled in it and is embedded in it, so it will not fall out even with normal bumps. Moreover, the small bottle is full of ready-made medicines, and the names of the medicines are not written on them. I guess it's because I'm very familiar with them and there's no need to write them.

Xinbao was like opening a blind box. He moved a small stool over and sat down, looking at them one by one with great interest.

Open it, smell it, pour it into a handkerchief and take a look. If you are not interested, put it back. If you are interested, keep one, and some will even lick it.

The medicines in his box included common ones in the market, while some had obviously been improved. In addition to the Erhuang Pills he had given before, there was also a stomach-nourishing medicine that Xinbao had never seen before. He asked someone to get a jade mortar and crushed the pills. He thought the combination was pretty good.

Xinbao raised his little finger and said as he looked at it, "Wife, please help Xinbao write something."

Yuan Shenjue responded, ground the ink, and waited for her to speak, but Tuanzi paused again, staring at her little fingers in a daze.

Yuan Shenjue waited for a while, then asked curiously, "Xinbao?"

Tuanzi said "oh" and stretched out her hand to him. Yuan Shenjue could only put down the pen and wipe it for her.

Xinbao said to himself, "The ginseng here can be replaced with codonopsis, which will have a more suitable medicinal property... Then the combination of this medicine will be just right. But Xinbao was thinking that judging from the medicinal materials, this medicine won't be too cheap, and some stomach problems are often caused by hunger, irregular meals, etc... If you're often hungry, you're probably poor, and if you're poor, you can't afford such expensive medicine."

While mumbling, she held her cheeks with both hands and began to daydream.

Yuan Shenjue waited for a long time, and she was still thinking, so he simply sat aside and drank tea.

Xinbao thought for a long time, then began to write on paper. He wrote two herbs, then crossed out one, then wrote a few more herbs, then crossed out another one.

Yuan Shenjue had never seen her make any changes before, and Xinbao always used medicine without thinking twice.

The servant didn't dare to make a sound and just watched the little girl writing and drawing very seriously.

Finally, she wrote down three prescriptions, thought about them carefully for a while, and nodded: "That's it!"

Yuan Shenjue held her on his lap with one hand, fed her a cup of tea, and then asked her, "What is Xinbao writing?"

Tuanzi said, "Xinbao has a new idea and wants to give it a try."

She pushed his hand away and put on the mask: "Let's go, let's go find Dabai."

Before the group arrived, they saw two young eunuchs running towards them. When they saw them, they quickly knelt down and said, "Your Highness! A fight has started! That old Zou and Mr. Bai are fighting!!"

Hao Huashi exclaimed and ran over to take a look. Yuan Shenjue motioned the shadow guard to go over and take a look, while asking, "What's going on?"

The young eunuch spoke rapidly.

Because Xinbao wanted to amuse his brother a while ago, and later he wanted to make friends with officials' wives for Madam Lin, so he refined some pills that can only be smelled but not eaten.

Bai Gusheng was a medicine fanatic rather than a medical fanatic. He was only obsessed with the "skill" of medicine and was not obsessed with saving lives.

So when I learned that medicines in the world could be used in this way, I began to study it.

However, Zou Buqun is a kind-hearted doctor.

He was shocked by alchemy at first and didn't think much about it. But later, when he heard that the elixir could not be eaten but only smelled, and that it had no benefits for the body and was just a thing for pleasure, he felt that something was very wrong. He believed that if medicine could not cure diseases and save lives, it had gone astray.

Then he began to persuade Bai Gusheng. The two had different ideas and refused to give in to each other, so they started fighting after a disagreement.

In fact, Bai Gusheng is more famous in the martial arts world than him, but his kung fu is average and he is no match for Zou Buqun at all.

Fortunately, Zou Buqun was not as childish as him and was holding back from beating him, so when they rushed over, the two had already been pulled apart.

Bai Gusheng was indignant and kept muttering: "Master, where did this old man come from! He is talking nonsense. What right path or wrong path has nothing to do with him!!"

Zou Buqun shook his head and said after a while: "But isn't this a waste of medicine?"

Yuan Shenjue said calmly, "Divine Doctor Zou is alone, so he naturally doesn't need to consider 'people's hearts'. As a commoner, he naturally doesn't need to consider 'people's hearts'. That's why you feel useless, because you are not in the position, so you naturally don't need to plan for the politics."

Zou Buqun was stunned for a moment, then thought about it carefully: "That's not wrong."

He bowed his hands and said, "I am ignorant and said something wrong, please don't blame me."

Bai Gusheng snorted.

Fortunately, he was not a person with a bad temper, so he did not say much and just asked, "Master, what do you want to practice again?"

Xinbao said, "I want to refine these three kinds of medicine."

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Bai Gusheng took it, and Zou Buqun also came over to look at it. Then they both frowned, and Zou Buqun asked, "What is this medicine for?"

Bai Gusheng felt that he was the eldest disciple and should not be so embarrassed. Although he did not understand it, he still took it arrogantly and said to him: "Won't you know it after refining it?"

As he spoke, he ordered his subordinates to prepare medicine.

Xue Xuanji came out a step late, took the paper and looked at it, and said, "Master, what kind of medicine is this?"

Tuanzi said: "Xinbao is looking at Mr. Zou's box. There is a medicine in it, which should be for stomach..."

Zou Buqun smiled and said, "Did you see it?"

Tuanzi nodded and said, "Xinbao thinks it should be effective, but it should not be cheap, so Xinbao suddenly thought... How can poor people treat diseases? So Xinbao wants to try to make some cheap medicine."

She pointed to the paper and said, "So Xinbao wants to try this recipe to see if it works."

Xue Xuanji said: "But I still haven't figured out how to use this prescription."

Xinbao was very confident in front of his little apprentice. He let go of his wife's hand, put her hands behind her back, and said seriously, "Do you still remember the Super Body Pill? The principle of the Super Body Pill is to stimulate the circulation of one's own Qi and blood, dredge the meridians and activate the collaterals, which is equivalent to acupuncture for the whole body... And usually, if you have stomachache, press the Neiguan point, and if you have toothache, press the Hegu point. This pill is made based on this principle, using the cheapest and most common medicine to treat the symptoms."

Xue Xuanji murmured, "Treat the symptoms...but why do we need to treat the symptoms specifically?"

Xinbao said: "Because they have no money."

"I know," Xue Xuanji said, "but I was thinking, they have no money, so they will probably just endure it. Basically, those who can endure it are just mild cases, and when they have to take medicine, it's a serious case. So, is this kind of symptomatic medicine still useful?"

Xinbao waved his hands: "Don't you understand? Xinbao said that this medicine is not for pain relief, it is not an anesthetic, it uses the principle of acupuncture and moxibustion, the method of refining super-body pills. So although it is only a temporary solution, it is also useful..."

She paused: "It's similar to, similar to..."

She couldn't remember it for a moment, and Hao Huashi didn't understand it either, so she couldn't help him explain it, so she looked at the little master provocatively, raising her eyebrows twice, meaning, "Go ahead and grab it! Why don't you grab the conversation now?"
