Xing Ke cut to the chase, "I need the anesthetic in your hand, a lot of it."
Recently, during the fighting on the front lines, the enemy sent warplanes to bombard our positions and towns, causing countless casualties and creating an urgent need for medicine.
"I like your straightforwardness, that's fine, but I don't have much of it either."
Ah Li looked at Xing Ke with great appreciation, thinking that there was no need to be so direct and straightforward.
"Take as much as you can get first."
As Xing Ke spoke, she took out two small yellow croakers and placed them on the table.
Ali tapped his cheek with the tip of his tongue and said, "Wait here, I'll give you the stock first, you can check it out."
"Can."
Xing Ke stood up, thinking that Ah Li would ask him to leave.
As a result, Ahri went into the back room and closed the door.
What does he need anesthesia for?
Ahri understood, so she rummaged through her space and found half a box of anesthetics, and then half a bag of common painkillers and fever reducers.
Not too much, just a little.
Xing Ke looked at the thing in Ali's hand but didn't ask where she got it from.
Ali didn't say much, just put the things in front of him and took the two small yellow croakers.
Xing Ke inspected the goods, but he didn't show any surprise, remaining calm: "How much more can you take out?"
"That depends on how much you want."
Ahri seems to really like the yellow croaker and wants as many as possible.
Xing Ke smiled and said, "I'll bring five more small yellow croakers in three days. You can take whichever you like."
"OK."
Xing Ke carried the things out without trying to hide them, because the way Ali stored the medicines was rather peculiar—two earthenware jars, the kind used for storing pickled vegetables.
Xing Ke handed the items to Lu Liuyun. Lu Liuyun glanced at the various medicine bottles inside, then looked at the small clinic.
That day, before the man came out, he brought people to search the area, but they found no medicine there.
Xing Ke took the medicine out of the earthenware jar and smelled it. It had an earthy smell, as if it had been buried underground.
"Find an opportunity to send these over along with the supplies that have already been prepared."
"Um."
Lu Liuyun drove away.
Ahri came out and took a look, then closed the door; she still had a lot of things to pack.
After everything was tidied up and Ah Li had finished washing up, there was another knock on the door.
The person knocking on the door was Xiao Liu. He shouted, "What are you doing? You lock the door as soon as you get back. What are you doing inside?"
Ahri changed her clothes and said, "What's with the knocking on my soul? I just got back and you won't even let me rest properly?"
Ah Li rubbed the back of her neck as she opened the door and immediately saw Xiao Liu carrying a bottle of wine and half a roast chicken. He said, "I came to have a drink with you. Aren't you happy to see me?"
"Welcome, but I welcome wine and chicken, not you."
Ah Li tried to take the roast chicken from Xiao Liu's hand, but Xiao Liu dodged it and pushed open the other door, walking straight inside, saying, "It really only looks right when someone's home."
"You've already shed that skin, yet you still force your way into a private residence?"
"You really don't know how to talk. I'm only being polite to you because I consider you a friend."
Xiao Liu tossed the roast chicken over to Ali, then his eyes were suddenly dazzled by two small yellow croakers on the table. "This!"
"mine."
Ahri hadn't thought about putting it away because she was alone in the room.
Xiao Liu leaned closer, "I know it's yours, but didn't you just get back? Who gave it to you? And you just left it on the table like that. Aren't you afraid someone will take it?"
Ah Li glanced at Xiao Liu, "Originally, there was no one else in this house besides me. Who knew you would suddenly come over?"
At this moment, Xiao Liu looked at the little yellow fish in Ah Li's hand and asked, "Is it real?"
"yes."
Ah Li knew the principle of not flaunting wealth, so she suddenly looked at Xiao Liu and said, "If you run errands for me in the future and buy me something, I'll let you take a look."
Xiao Liu thought that this person just ran a small clinic and didn't treat people, only cats and dogs. He had a clean social circle and didn't have many friends. He agreed, "Okay."
Ali casually tossed him a small yellow croaker and said, "I'll give you a prescription later, with some medicinal herbs on it. You can get them for me then."
"Medicinal herbs!"
Xiao Liu was startled. He felt that the yellow croaker was a bit hot to the touch. At this time, the medicinal herbs were all controlled, and some herbs could not be bought even if you had money.
"Why are you making such a fuss? I just want some aconite and Sichuan aconite, as well as angelica and chuanxiong, angelica dahurica and arisaema. These are very common."
Do you think these are easy to get?
"If it's inconvenient, then forget it. I'll go find it in the mountains myself."
Suddenly, Xiao Liu looked at Ah Li with great suspicion, "What do you want with all this medicine?"
Ahri shrugged. "Get some anesthetic, otherwise some cats and dogs are really fierce. They try to bite me before I even get close."
Xiao Liu thought about it and agreed. Getting bitten by a dog would be bad enough. He said, "If it's not too many, I'll help you find some later."
"Thanks."
Ah Li didn't intend to ask Xiao Liu to bring back a lot for her; the anesthetic she wanted was 'Dream Return to Spring Powder'.
The primary ingredient is datura flower, which has anesthetic and analgesic effects. It is supplemented with aconite and aconitum carmichaelii, which are good medicines for dispelling wind and dampness and relieving pain. Although the medicinal properties are strong, they have been made much milder through ancient processing methods. In addition, angelica and chuanxiong nourish the blood, promote blood circulation, and regulate qi and blood, ensuring that the body can maintain vitality even under anesthesia.
In addition, we add Angelica dahurica, whose pungent and dispersing properties help the anesthetic to penetrate quickly and exert its effects. We also add Pinellia ternata, which can resolve phlegm and dissipate nodules, calm the mind, and prevent agitation that may occur during anesthesia.
