Chapter 849: The Magic of West City
Jiang Xiaoxiao is wandering around the medicine market right now, and she has to continue looking for any good medicinal materials.
These days, as the old lady told her the legends of Xishi and the things passed down from the previous generation, she gradually understood why this so-called ancient medical world only stayed in Xishi.
It has not been promoted nationwide, and this place is a no-man's land, which means that no one is in charge of you.
It turns out that all the people in Xishi are inheritors of the ancient medical world, and Western medicine is not recognized among them.
That is to say, although there are hospitals and clinics here, all the methods used to treat and save lives are ancient Chinese medicine.
Pills, medicinal herbs, acupuncture, and other things like operations have no place here. Anyone who dares to do such things will be considered a traitor and go against the will of the ancestors and will be expelled.
Of course, when they say "drive you out", they don't mean to drive you out and let you live a good life with the inheritance you got in the ancient medical world.
That’s just wishful thinking!
This means driving you directly into the Kunlun Mountains, which gives people a very mysterious feeling.
It is said that there is a special genius energy in the Kunlun Mountains that nourishes everything here, and the medicinal herbs grown near here are hundreds of times more effective than those grown in other places.
It is completely different from those Chinese medicinal materials out there, and it can be said to be twice the result with half the effort.
Most of the inheritors of the ancient medical world have opened up their own family medicine fields in the mountains near Kunlun Mountain. The medicinal herbs grown here are the basis for their medicine refining.
Of course, this inherited elixir from the ancient medical world is indeed surprising.
As long as the elixir is well-made and reaches level ten, its effect is no worse than surgery in Western medicine.
For example, an appendicitis.
Acute appendicitis is a nightmare for many people, and in Western medicine, surgery is definitely required to remove the inflamed part, suture it, and use medication to allow the patient to recover.
But in the ancient medical world, if you take the anti-inflammatory pill, your appendicitis will be cured immediately without any medicine.
There is no need for surgery, but not everyone can make this level 10 pill.
Not everyone can get it, so it becomes rare and expensive, but local people cannot eat level 10 ones.
Level four or five is still affordable.
If you can recover by taking a pill, who would be willing to spend the money to have surgery?
This is also the reason why Western medicine has little success in this area.
Of course, a level 10 pill can make a person recover immediately after taking it, but a level 4 or 5 pill will require you to take it for a month or two.
It is guaranteed that you will recover after completing one course of treatment.
This is why there are so many pharmacies in this place.
Moreover, almost every pharmacy is crowded. It’s not that people here just get sick for no reason.
This is a place where many people come here just to buy the elixirs.
Who can guarantee that they won’t get sick in this life? You can buy some pills here and take some medicine to get well. Who would want to go to the hospital for surgery?
Especially the wealthy and powerful people around the world value their lives even more.
Naturally, this place becomes lively and bustling.
Someone asked why the wealthy families outside didn't try to gain a foothold in Xishi, or capture these people and use their talents to help them make medicine.
You have to know that selling these pills outside can make a lot of money.
You think no one has thought of this?
There are so many people with evil intentions and who are greedy for money. It's a pity.
The local ancient medical practitioners here in Xishi will never leave their hometown, even if they leave the hometown.
Their talents will immediately drop a level, and no one knows why.
Here, they can refine the elixir, but once you leave this place, you will never be able to make it again.
It seems like an evil curse.
Moreover, the medicinal materials outside cannot compare with those in Xishi. The medicinal materials in Xishi can only achieve the best effect when they are refined in Xishi.
This is why all the people who buy elixirs in the West Market have to come here in person to buy them.
As long as these pills leave Xishi, all of them will become ineffective after half a month.
No matter what level of elixir you are making, even if it is a tenth-level elixir, as long as you leave this place, within a radius of ten miles, if you don't take the medicine within half a month, it will basically be useless, no different from a pill.
And it's a pill that has no effect.
Many people gave up after trying it.
If they want to occupy this place by force, it is absolutely impossible.
Because in the West City Medicine God Association there is a very mysterious disciplinary department, this disciplinary department has personnel who are specifically responsible for punishment, law, and behavioral norms, these personnel are also called public security. These public security personnel are very powerful.
Anyway, no one has gotten any favor from them so far.
No one knows what methods these people use, but we only know that once they take action, it is hard to predict.
In any case, in the end, the fate of those who did bad things was mysterious disappearance. Of course, most people believed that the way these people were punished was to throw them into the Kunlun Mountains.
Once you enter the Kunlun Mountains, there is no way you can get out.
It's almost social death.
Of course, the more she understood the inside story, the more Jiang Xiaoxiao felt that it was very likely that some of the drugs in Xishi would wake Song Moting up. Her purpose was not to explore other people's secrets, but to find hope that could wake Song Moting up.
This made her feel more and more that she must join the Medicine God Association.
After the efficacy of peach juice was combined with the medicine here, the effect was unexpectedly different.
And the drugs seemed to boost the effects of peach juice.
In the past, after a peach was made into a pill, even if all the pills were eaten, there would be no side effects on the body. But now, once combined with these medicines, Jiang Xiaoxiao found that the efficacy of the peach was amplified by more than ten times.
As a result, after experimenting, she reduced the amount of peach juice in these medicines to a minimum.
It doesn't make people feel too horrified.
Of course, others didn't know the result of the experiment, but she knew it in her heart because she found that the pill she made was better after adding peach juice.
For example, the super-quality anti-aging pill made from the anti-aging pill can last for almost ten years.
In other words, you get the greatest effect at the lowest cost.
Although she had not conducted this kind of experiment on other elixirs, she guessed that her peach juice would only enhance the various effects.
Moreover, the efficacy of this medicine recipe is more concentrated, which is equivalent to removing any impurities and obtaining pure essence.
This was something she hadn't expected.
This is probably how super-quality elixirs come about.
Of course, the greater benefit for Jiang Xiaoxiao is that she has become confident that she might be able to refine the so-called recovery pill herself.
Song Moting should be able to wake up soon!
