Shopkeeper Lu nodded: "Okay."
In the warm room, after they sat down, Shopkeeper Lu smiled and said to Su Luo, "By the way, I haven't asked you yet, what are you doing in the pharmacy? To get medicine? To see a doctor?"
Su Luo smiled and said, "Selling medicinal herbs."
"Selling medicinal herbs?" Shopkeeper Lu asked. "What kind of herbs? Let me tell you, Lao He is a very strict person. He has very high standards and strict requirements for medicinal herbs—"
"What high standards and strict requirements?" An indifferent voice came from not far away.
Shopkeeper Lu stood up and went to meet him: "Hey, Lao He, you finally came out. I've been waiting for you for a long time."
Seeing his old friend, the usually aloof Pharmacist He gave a wry smile, "Manager Lu, is there something that brings you here? Please tell me quickly, I'm really worried."
"Annoyed? What are you annoyed about?" Shopkeeper Lu asked subconsciously.
"I met a customer today with a very strange symptom. It looked like a common headache and fever, but no matter what I did, it wouldn't heal. It's been going on for a month or so. If it goes on any longer, the reputation of Yihetang will be ruined."
Su Luo thought for a moment and then asked, "Does this patient have purple circles around his eyes?"
"Huh!" It was not until this time that Pharmacist He noticed Su Luo's existence. He turned around and saw a very beautiful little girl. He immediately looked at Shopkeeper Lu in confusion.
Shopkeeper Lu said with a smile, "This is Miss Su Luosu. She's here to sell medicinal herbs. Miss Su, please quickly take out the herbs and show them to Mr. He."
He Lao glanced at Shopkeeper Lu speechlessly. What medicinal herbs did his Yihetang not have? And what medicinal herbs could this little girl come up with?
"Xiao Zou, come here and collect the herbs for this girl." He Lao turned to Shopkeeper Lu and said, "I'm really too busy right now. I'll treat you later."
Having said that, Pharmacist He turned around and was about to leave.
But Su Luo smiled faintly: "Is the patient breathing heavily, and there is an indescribable stench in his mouth and nose?"
"Huh!" This time, Pharmacist He's eyes really lit up. He stared at Su Luo: "You, how did you know?"
Su Luo raised the corner of her mouth slightly and said, "If it's convenient, Pharmacist He can bring the patient here. I might be able to help you solve your problem."
Pharmacist He was skeptical. After all, this little girl was too young...
However, Pharmacist He finally nodded and said to the waiter, "Go and invite the mother and son over."
Soon, the mother came over with the child in her arms.
The mother looked very young, and the little boy looked about five or six years old.
The eyes were large and black, but due to the illness, they looked a little cloudy. The skin, which should have been fair, was now sallow and waxy, and the little face was so thin that it was almost shapeless.
At this moment, the little boy was looking at Su Luo weakly with his cloudy eyes.
Pharmacist He rubbed the little boy's head and said, "Xiao Zhuzi, after taking the medicine, do you feel better now?"
The little boy looked at Pharmacist He weakly, and shook his head honestly on his innocent face.
Pharmacist He smiled bitterly: "It's still useless. Alas, Madam Zhu, it seems that I am powerless to treat Xiao Zhuzi's illness. Why don't you send him to the imperial capital? Perhaps there is still a glimmer of hope..."
"The Imperial Capital?"
Pharmacist He nodded. "There's a Half-God-level alchemist in the capital, known as the Immortal Old Man. Perhaps he has a solution, but he's incredibly elusive. Even if you find him, you'll rarely see him, as he only saves a life every ten years."
