Chapter 151 Mu Dynasty
Lin Qian pretended to be terrified, took two steps back, looked at the man warily, and said, "I don't want the flowers anymore, let me go."
The man ignored her and took two steps forward, slowly approaching Lin Qian.
Lin Qian stepped back, hands behind her back, ready to draw her sword at any time.
"You are Lin Qian, am I right?" the man asked as he approached Lin Qian. Lin Qian narrowed her eyes. This man actually knew her.
Lin Qian nodded: "Yes, I am Lin Qian."
The man said, "I still have a lot of rare and precious herbs. If you want them, I can give them to you, but you have to help me save someone."
After hearing what the man said, Lin Qian felt relieved. It turned out that this man wanted to ask her to save someone.
Lin Qian reached out and pushed away the man who was about to come close to her. She said, "Why didn't you tell me earlier that you wanted to save someone? Stay away from me. Who are you saving? What disease do you have?"
"Come with me." The man was not angry even though he was pushed. The smirk on his face immediately became heavy, and he said to Lin Qian.
"If you want me to treat you, bring the patient here. I won't go with you." Lin Qian said to the man without letting down her guard.
The man turned around unhappily. He had a tough look to begin with, and now with a frown on his face, he looked at Lin Qian, and one could sense a fierce bandit aura from him.
Lin Qian didn't hesitate and turned around to escape. But after she took only two steps, the man grabbed her vital point with extremely fast speed.
"Don't waste your time. You can't escape from me. Help me heal the man and I will let you go." The man pulled Lin Qian to the backyard.
Lin Qian felt that she could no longer use her internal strength. She struggled but failed to break free. She could only frown and stagger as she followed the man.
The man took Lin Qian to the backyard, but did not enter the room. Instead, he came to the well in the yard.
After opening the wooden manhole cover, the man pushed Lin Qian in.
Lin Qian's vital point was released, and she was able to use her internal energy and land safely at the bottom of the well.
The bottom of the well was pitch black, and only the bright moonlight from the moon above the wellhead allowed Lin Qian to vaguely see that there seemed to be a passage ahead.
Soon the man landed beside him and continued to walk forward with Lin Qian.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, Lin Qian smelled the rich aroma of herbs, many of which were high-quality and precious medicinal materials.
After walking forward for a while, Lin Qian suddenly saw a bright light, and soon the two of them came out of the corridor and entered a square underground room.
It was empty here. There was nothing there except a large vat in the middle of the room with a person sitting in it.
The fragrance of medicine came from the big jar.
The man let go of Lin Qian and motioned for her to come forward and check.
Lin Qian walked closer and saw clearly that the person sitting in the medicine jar was a woman, about twenty-eight or twenty-nine years old. Between her eyebrows and eyes, one could vaguely see that she was very similar to the man behind her.
This woman is most likely the man's sister.
However, Lin Qian didn't care much about this. Instead, she frowned and looked at the woman, then looked at the medicine in the tank.
This liquid is a thin paste and feels somewhat similar to honey, but it is black.
Lin Qian reached out and touched the woman's aorta. It was still beating, but very weakly, and it seemed that it might stop beating at any time.
Lin Qian fished out the woman's wrist and took her pulse. She only touched it lightly for a moment and then withdrew her hand.
Seven Deadly Pulses, Seven Deadly Pulses are seen again.
"The pulse is a sparrow pecking pulse, one of the seven deadly pulses. She is beyond help." Lin Qian turned and said to the man.
The man glanced at Lin Qian lightly and said, "For so many years, every doctor who saw her said the same thing."
All these years? Every single year? Lin Qian accurately grasped the message in the man's words and looked back at the woman in disbelief. "You said she's been like this for years? That's impossible."
"It's been three years," the man replied.
Lin Qian leaned over and looked at the woman carefully, but her attention was attracted by the liquid medicine in the tank. She picked up a little with her hand and observed it carefully.
"What medicine is this?" Lin Qian could see that there were many precious medicinal herbs here, but she still couldn't distinguish some of them, and didn't know what the prescription was.
This prescription must be extraordinary, as it was able to extend the life of this woman who had lost all hope for more than three years.
"It's the ancient secret recipe 'Thousand Gold to Extend Life'. I spent a lot of effort to find it. This medicine needs to be changed once a month to prolong her life, but it can't save her."
Lin Qian mostly studied advanced medical skills of later generations, and did not learn much about ancient prescriptions. Therefore, Lin Qian had never heard of the prescription of "Qian Jin Xu Ming".
But Lin Qian has already witnessed the effect of this medicine.
Lin Qian began to hold the woman's wrist again and take her pulse carefully, but as time went on, Lin Qian's expression became more and more ugly.
Not only were all the woman's meridians broken, but there were also many bleeding areas in her internal organs and few of her bones were intact.
This is what a serious car accident looks like in modern times.
"I can try, but she is so weak, I can't guarantee whether she can survive. Do you want to try?" Lin Qian thought for a moment, turned to the man and said.
The man's eyes lit up and he said, "As long as there's a glimmer of hope, I'm willing to try."
Lin Qian nodded, then continued, "However, I have a condition. You have to give me the recipe for 'Thousand Golds to Extend Life'."
"Okay." The man nodded without blinking after hearing Lin Qian's request, then took out a somewhat worn silk book from his arms and handed it to Lin Qian.
Lin Qian opened it and saw that it was filled with names of medicinal herbs. Upon closer inspection, there were no less than two hundred kinds.
"I have no way to treat this person here, and I need a lot of things that take time to prepare. You have to let me go home first." Lin Qian said.
The man looked at Lin Qian carefully without saying anything. Lin Qian immediately held her breath and looked at him.
She can't disappear now, otherwise Wei Xiaoran and Lin Wu will turn the entire capital upside down.
The man knew Lin Qian's identity and obviously also knew Lin Qian's background. If he wanted Lin Qian to save people, he could not control Lin Qian.
"You arrange a room for me in the general's mansion, and we will move in." The man said finally.
Lin Qian thought about it and thought it was a good idea, so she nodded in agreement.
The man took another look at the woman in the barrel, turned around and took Lin Qian out.
This time, the man did not control Lin Qian anymore. He sent her out of Xuancao Pavilion and said, "My name is Mu Chao. I will come to your house tomorrow."
Lin Qian nodded, turned around and was about to leave, but Mu Chao grabbed her hand again.
Seeing Lin Qian looking back at him in confusion, Mu Chao narrowed his eyes and said, "You'd better not play any tricks, otherwise, no one around you will survive."
Lin Qian was about to speak when a hand suddenly appeared from the side and lifted up Mu Chao's hand that was holding Lin Qian.
Then, Wei Xiaoran's cold voice rang out: "Who are you? What do you want to do?"
