Chapter 540 Miss Ying is an ancient healer, encountering a top-tier expert [2 updates]
He was called to a stop before he could even turn around.
"Xiao Xu, wait a minute."
Vice President Xu had no choice but to stop, and sighed again: "Elder, there's really no way. You should know my family situation. I can't bear to see my wife suffer."
All the researchers in the Ji family are like that, especially those who do biochemical experiments; they are exposed to radiation almost every day.
No matter how advanced the anti-radiation clothing is, it can't completely block radiation.
Many suffer from illness, and most importantly, radiation can easily cause gene mutations.
Some diseases are incurable because modern medical technology has not yet advanced to that level.
Although Vice President Xu's wife did not have cancer, her health was also very poor, and she suffered from piercing heart pain from time to time.
“I understand how you feel. Your wife is very important.” The old man nodded. “You know, I was also seriously ill and even went to the intensive care unit, but look at me now, I’m perfectly fine.”
Vice President Xu was taken aback, then suddenly became excited: "That's right, Elder, do you know any ancient doctors?"
“I don’t know if she’s an ancient healer, but her medical skills are very strong,” the old man said. “I can guarantee that she can definitely cure your wife.”
Upon hearing this, Vice President Xu agreed.
Madam Ji's father's illness was much more serious than his wife's.
If he can get better, then his wife can too.
“The successor will be chosen on Friday, there are still a few days.” The old man picked up his phone. “I’ll ask her first. If it doesn’t work out, you can do what you want. I won’t force you.”
Vice President Xu has taken care of Mr. and Mrs. Ji Yihang for so many years without asking for anything in return.
But the old man believed that Madam Xu's illness would be easy for Ying Zijing.
**
Ancient medical circles.
Ying Zijing went to the Pill Alliance again; this time, she went to schedule an assessment.
The Danmeng assessment must start from level one; skipping levels is not allowed.
The first-level assessment involves medicine making.
It is the simplest health-preserving elixir.
The health-preserving pills are suitable for ordinary people to take; they are for longevity and health, not the fake health products on the market that are used to deceive the elderly.
Ying Zijing felt it had no flavor, so she specially improved it and made various flavors, which she carried with her as candy.
She prefers chocolate flavor.
After making the appointment, Ying Zijing received a call from Wen Fengmian.
After listening, she thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll go take a look now. Judging from the description, it doesn't seem difficult to treat."
After considering Madam Xu's symptoms, Ying Zijing went to the medicine storehouse and bought several kinds of medicinal herbs.
Suddenly, a lot of money was spent.
After all, the currency in the ancient medical and martial arts worlds is one to ten times that of the outside world.
She needs to go back and have her dad reimburse her.
Yunshan followed behind Ying Zijin, constantly keeping an eye on the surroundings.
Not far from Danmeng, we passed a garden.
An old woman with gray hair sat at the entrance of the garden.
"Young lady, could you help me clear the weeds in this field?" She heard footsteps and raised her head shakily. "I'm old, my eyesight is failing, I can't see clearly anymore."
Yunshan was stunned for a moment. Before he could speak, he saw the girl pause and then step forward first.
He hurriedly followed, but was somewhat bewildered once inside.
This is a piece of land that has only recently been cultivated, and the green shoots of plants are just beginning to emerge.
At first glance, it's impossible to tell which ones are planted.
"Grandpa, which ones are weeds?"
"My eyesight is bad, I can't see."
Yunshan: "..."
Ying Zijing squatted down, her eyes slightly shifting.
She smelled it and then pressed her hand against a blade of grass.
"Miss Ying, what if we pull it out—" Before Yunshan could finish speaking, Ying Zijing had already swiftly and decisively pulled out the weed.
Yunshan's heart skipped a beat, and he subconsciously turned to look at the old lady.
The old lady didn't react; instead, she nodded, seemingly quite satisfied.
Yunshan breathed a sigh of relief: "Miss Ying, do you know how to tell the difference?"
He was originally a martial arts practitioner, and his eyesight was beyond that of ordinary people, but he really couldn't see any difference.
“Hmm, you can’t recognize it.” Ying Zijin continued pulling out the weeds by the roots. “These medicinal herbs look no different from weeds at first. You need to use your eyes, nose, and ears to judge them. You can’t be wrong even if you’re a little off.”
He paused, then sighed softly, "Such rare medicinal herbs."
She glanced at it just now and saw that there were ten fire lotus fruit plants in this one medicinal field alone.
A mature fire lotus fruit plant would fetch at least a million US dollars if sold on the NOK forum.
No, it should be a lot of money.
Yunshan hadn't expected that medicinal herbs were planted here. He asked, "Miss Ying, the young master has some quotas and can help you plan out a ten-acre medicinal herb field. If you need it, I'll report it to him right away."
The soil in the medicinal fields where ancient doctors grow herbs is special, and these lands are controlled by a few ancient medical families.
Upon hearing this, Ying Zijin raised an eyebrow: "Who said I know how to grow medicinal herbs? I know nothing about it."
Yunshan was taken aback: "Huh?"
In his view, Miss Ying was omnipotent.
Ying Zijin didn't return; she continued weeding the medicinal herb field.
It wasn't that she was completely ignorant, because she genuinely hadn't considered that aspect.
Rare medicinal materials are always divided into two types.
Born of nature, having endured wind and rain and the passage of many years, the essence of medicinal herbs has been perfectly preserved.
The conditions for another type of artificial cultivation are much more demanding.
She's a rather lazy person and has no experience in medicinal herb cultivation.
Growing medicinal herbs is really tiring.
Back when she was cultivating in the spiritual world, whatever medicine she needed, her good friend would bring it to her directly.
Later, they even gave her a medicinal herb garden with so many seeds that she couldn't possibly use them all.
After returning to Earth, finding medicinal herbs really became a problem.
Most importantly, the money spent on medicine was simply too much.
With that money, she would rather invest it in Chuguang Media so that the company could recruit more beautiful female stars.
Soon, Ying Zijin had cleared all the weeds from the plot of land.
"Thank you, young lady." The old lady stood up. She walked slowly, holding a round green fruit in her hand. "I don't have anything today, so here's a fruit for you to eat. It can quench your thirst. Please don't refuse."
Ying Zijing paused for a moment, but did not refuse her request, and accepted the gift: "You're welcome."
As the old lady walked inside, she said, "It's getting late. It's not safe for the young girl to stay outside alone."
Yunshan: "???"
Does that mean he's not a human being in the old lady's eyes?
Is it because he doesn't know which are medicinal herbs and which are grasses?
“This is not a physical illness for the old man,” Ying Zijing said suddenly, holding the fruit. “It is a mental illness, but it has become a heart disease. His heart meridians are damaged. If it is not cured, I fear he will not have much time left.”
Yunshan scratched his head as he listened.
Miss Ying wasn't in the field of ancient medicine before, so why does she speak with such a refined and literary tone, just like the natives here?
Upon hearing this, the old lady paused, but ultimately remained silent.
She continued walking, leaning on her cane.
Ying Zijin didn't linger any longer and left the garden.
She looked at the round green fruit in her hand and pondered, "This is a fifty-year-old green ginseng fruit."
"Green ginseng fruit?!" Yunshan split open instantly. "Used to quench thirst?!"
Green ginseng fruit is not a particularly rare medicinal material, but most of them are twenty years old.
Those from fifty years ago are basically unavailable.
The Judicial Hall once acquired two 40-year-old stones, one of which was put up for auction and eventually sold for one million.
According to the old lady, this is just something to quench thirst?
Yunshan suddenly realized: "Miss Ying, the Tea Saint! She must be the Tea Saint! No wonder you went in to help her."
Besides the Tea Saint, who else can cultivate green ginseng fruit for fifty years?
Everyone wants the favor that the Tea Sage has bestowed.
Being able to get to know the Tea Sage means you can get first-hand access to rare medicinal herbs.
What's the Tea Sage doing here?
Not on that mountain over there?
“No, I was thinking of my grandfather.” Ying Zijin looked up, squinted her phoenix eyes, and looked at the sky calmly. “If one day he is away and I am not by his side, and he needs help but there is no one to help him, he will definitely be very sad.”
It's just that I empathize with them.
Cause and effect cycle.
Doing good deeds can indeed accumulate blessings and good fortune.
**
After refining the purchased medicinal herbs, Ying Zijing asked Yunshan to stay at the Ye family's residence while she returned to the Ji family's residence first.
She went to Vice President Xu's residence.
Ji Yihang and his wife, as well as Wen Fengmian, were all present.
Ying Zijin nodded in greeting: "Dad, Second Uncle, Second Aunt, Elder."
Vice Dean Xu was thinking that Madam Ji's father, as an elder of the Ji family, would certainly not lie to him.
But seeing how young the girl was, not even twenty years old, it was really hard to believe.
Vice President Xu had spent more than ten years at the research institute. Although he had never been to the ancient martial arts or ancient medicine circles, he had heard of the names of several young ancient doctors.
Lin Qingjia goes without saying; at twenty-two years old, he is an unparalleled genius who cultivates both ancient medicine and martial arts.
