Du Yuqi then added:

"The medicine lead is the most important part of the prescription. It has always been believed that the 'lead' is very hard to come by. It is expensive, rare or even non-existent. If it is difficult for the patient to prepare it, the doctor will provide it, such as 'dragon liver and phoenix marrow' (snake gallbladder, chicken brain), 'phoenix clothes' (egg shell inner membrane), 'Peach wine' (human milk), 'Mountain power' (deer antler, horn), etc. On the one hand, this is a trick by the doctor to make the patient buy it from him to raise the price, but on the other hand, it is really effective."

"For example, there is an old Chinese doctor in my hometown who is good at treating coughs. The Chinese medicine he prescribes is ordinary, but the medicine guide is very strange. It requires two crickets after the frost falls. Western medicine sneers at this and thinks it is deliberately mysterious. However, the grandson of this old Chinese doctor is a doctor who studied in the United States. He firmly believes that his grandfather would not lie. He also discovered the miraculous effect of this prescription himself, and then used modern scientific methods to conduct in-depth research."

"After two years of research, we found that most crickets cannot survive the Frost Descent. Only a few very strong crickets can hold on until that moment. When crickets are exposed to low temperatures, their bodies will secrete a unique hormone to fight the severe cold. The composition of this hormone is extremely similar to the main ingredient of the latest cough treatment drug developed by the University of Pennsylvania in the United States. The difference in their structure is even only 0.3 ten-thousandths!"

Young Master Chu was surprised:

"Is there such a thing?"

Du Yuqi said:

"Just search Chen Shengfu on Baidu. That's the name of the doctor who studied in the United States. He was a sensation at the time."

Chu Zihang was obviously a person who believed in his eyes more than his ears. As expected, he went to Baidu and found that the information on it was exactly the same as what Du Yuqi said. But then he heard Du Yuqi continue:

"Does Mr. Chu know about Yunnan Baiyao?"

Chu Zihang nodded and said:

"Of course I know that."

Du Yuqi said seriously:

"In fact, the Yunnan Baiyao sold on the market now is just an incomplete prescription, lacking an ingredient. If this ingredient is added, then this medicine will be amazing. It is not only used to treat bleeding from trauma, but its most important healing property can also be brought into play. In modern scientific terms, it greatly promotes cell growth and vitality, allowing the body's immune cells to divide and grow rapidly. Its effect can be said to far exceed any other medicine on the market."

Chu Zihang asked curiously:

"You know this too?"

Du Yuqi said:

"Of course, this is not a big secret, but the medicine is hard to get."

"What is that?" asked Young Master Chu.

Du Yuqi said:

"The herb that brings back the dead is Selaginella."

Young Master Chu said, "Oh!" and said curiously:

"This thing doesn't seem to be that rare. I checked it out. Look, it's sold on Taobao. They sell it for anywhere from 2,000 yuan to 20,000 yuan."

Du Yuqi shook his head slowly and said:

"It's useless. Do you know where these Selaginella come from? They are sown directly in the ground just like crops, and then fertilized and sprayed with pesticides. They are placed in greenhouses and even go through optimization and selection by technicians. After they are planted in the spring, they can be harvested in five months. It's impossible for this kind of Chinese medicine to be effective! This is also the reason why Chinese medicine is beginning to decline - the quality of the medicine is no longer as good as it was hundreds or even decades ago."

"Real wild Selaginella grows on cliffs and Gobi deserts. In drought seasons, the grass can even shrink and even the roots can be pulled out of the ground, forming a dry grass ball that is blown everywhere by the wind. However, once it reaches a humid area, it can regenerate roots and thrive, so it is also called withered grass."

"But the medicine lead that Yunnan Baiyao needs here must be the Selaginella that has withered and revived nine times! There can only be more, no less. The nine withers and nine revives is just the most basic statement. Only the Selaginella that has experienced the nine withers and nine revives can be called the grass of nine deaths and nine revives, because it has almost transformed into a completely different species. Well, the difference is as big as that between humans and zombies."

Du Yuqi told these anecdotes as if they were his own treasures, and Young Master Chu listened with great interest, taking a sip of red wine from time to time, and even went online to check the authenticity of what Du Yuqi said.

Then Du Yuqi said:

"The reason why I'm talking so much is because if I tell you directly about the introduction to the bear soup, you'll find it incredible. Only with these things as a prelude can you feel that I'm not just talking nonsense..."

Young Master Chu smiled and said:

"Before I drank the Bear Run Soup, I would have thought you were a complete liar, but now I choose to believe you. Okay, tell me what that thing is so I can find someone to get it! To be honest, I went to the hospital for another check-up yesterday, and everything was normal except for a slightly high blood pressure. As for the blood pressure, it was entirely caused by my eager mood. At the same time, I also found that the power of the Bear Run Soup has not completely dissipated. I tested it this morning, and my maximum punching power has increased by 27 pounds!"

Du Yuqi said:

"Then congratulations. Bear Run Soup does have the ability to improve a person's physique. If the enhanced strength does not dissipate after 24 hours, then this bonus will remain in your body forever. Of course, this transformation is not unlimited. It just taps into all the potential in your body. This potential is the theoretical maximum that you can achieve through hard training - it doesn't turn you into a superman directly."

"Understood!" Young Master Chu drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, and said impatiently, "I know, I know, Xiong Ben Tang is harmless, you don't have to talk too much. Even if I don't trust you, can I trust people from the two authoritative organizations in Germany and the United States? So please get to the point directly, I can't wait."

Du Yuqi had been laying the groundwork for such a long time, and now his true intentions were finally revealed. He looked at Young Master Chu and said slowly:

"The initiator of the bear-running soup requires cultural relics."

Young Master Chu was surprised and said:

"Cultural relics?"

Du Yuqi said:

"That's right. It doesn't necessarily have to be from a long time ago, but it's best to have a strong cultural background and have experienced major historical events, so it can carry historical heritage. For example, at the founding ceremony of the People's Republic of China in 1949, the microphone that the leader spoke into would probably be fine, because without it, the ceremony would have been greatly affected. On the contrary, the socks and clothes that the leader wore at the time would probably be difficult..."

Young Master Chu was a little confused when he heard this, and said in a daze:

"You, I don't quite understand your metaphor."

Du Yuqi sighed and continued:

"Okay, let me give you another example. There was a president in the United States named Lincoln, right? When he was assassinated, the gun held by the murderer should also meet the requirements. In Chinese history, there is the dragon robe worn by Emperor Xuantong when he abdicated, the animal heads looted from the Old Summer Palace, the original manuscript of the History of Ming Dynasty that caused the literary inquisition in the Qing Dynasty, and so on."

After hearing what Du Yuqi said, Young Master Chu nodded and said:

"Now that you've said that, I think I understand a little bit. I'll call someone over and you can explain your request to him."

Du Yuqi continued:

"There is another crucial point, Mr. Chu. There is no guarantee that these things we found will be useful. If they cannot be used, then there is nothing to worry about and we can return them to you completely. If they can be used, when the medicine is prepared, these cultural relics will be destroyed directly and will be directly included in the cost of our pharmaceutical production."

Young Master Chu was stunned and said:

"If a cultural relic can be used, how many doses of medicine can it be made into?"

Du Yuqi calculated and said:

"It depends on the quality of the artifact. The one I gave you to drink last time was low-grade. It only lasts for 24 hours and has limited effects on the development of your body's potential. High-grade ones can last for ten days and have a better effect on the development of your body's potential. One artifact is one dose of medicine, which can be drunk about three times."

Young Master Chu slapped his thigh:

"Okay then, you said this medicine corresponds to the Five Animal Exercises, right? So besides this Xiong Ben Tang, is there anything else?"

Du Yuqi also expected that Young Master Chu would have such a question, and nodded:

"Yes, there are also Deer Singing Soup and Bird Crying Soup. Deer Singing Soup can improve a person's basic physical values, enhance their physical reserves, and improve their health potential. According to my family's records, as long as people in their sixties or seventies take about three doses of Deer Singing Soup, their physical data can be improved to the point where they can climb a six-thousand-meter peak. At the same time, their sexual ability will also be restored - as long as they are not terminally ill - and Bird Crying Soup can improve a person's agility, including but not limited to their shooting speed, running speed, etc."

The Deer Singing Soup and Bird Crying Soup mentioned by Du Yuqi actually correspond to the Primary Stamina Potion and Primary Agility Potion from the Arad Continent. Similarly, they must be high-quality potions, and the price is naturally several times that of ordinary potions. As for improving sexual ability, that is completely nonsense, but better physical strength will definitely have some impact in this regard, which is not completely unrelated. Of course, if you say this, it is naturally to expand the consumer group.

Young Master Chu's eyes lit up:

"There is such a thing! Then why did you only bring me the Xiong Run Soup?"

"Of course I only have the beginner ogre potion in my hand!" Du Yuqi said loudly in his heart, but he sighed and said:

"What a pity, Master Chu. To make these magical secret medicines, the temperature, experience, and even luck are all very important. It doesn't mean that you can make them just by having all the raw materials. At present, I am most confident in making the Bear Running Soup, with an 80% chance of success. I am only 50% confident in making the Bird Crying Soup, and only 30% confident in making the Deer Singing Soup..."
