Chapter 22 is finally back.
"Moreover, based on the symptoms, I have made a preliminary diagnosis of poisoning from the flowers of the 'Spatholobus suberectus'."
The golden vine generally grows more in the south, and is relatively rare here in the north, so many people probably don't recognize it.
As expected, both Lu Yun and Lin Zhuang, the brother and sister, said they didn't know.
"So, all we need to do is find an antidote that counteracts that vine?" Lin Zhuang asked excitedly.
"No need for that much trouble. That bit of poison wasn't serious at all. In fact, if we had just applied the most common detoxifying herbs, it would have been fine in two days."
However, you used the wrong method and the wrong medication. You also broke the bumps, which led to infection and subsequent pigmentation, causing it to spread into a large area.
Think about it yourself, if it were a serious poison, it would have already seeped into the skin and flesh, causing the face to rot.
The poisoning is not serious.
The treatment method is incorrect.
Just apply some common detoxifying herbs, and it will be fine in two days.
But they endured it for five years!
It cost over a hundred taels of silver!
"Quack doctor!" Lin Zhuang couldn't help but curse.
He clearly remembered that he was initially treated by Ding Hongshi.
It got worse and worse, so we went to the town, but they couldn't treat it, so we went to the county town. In the county town, a single dose of medicine cost three taels of silver!
After applying the treatment twice without seeing any effect, and hearing from Ding Hongshi that it wasn't the right treatment, I continued to receive treatment from him.
It turns out he was the one who caused all of this!
Lin Ye couldn't help but touch her face, her voice trembling: "So... my face is easy to heal?"
"It's easy to cure, but it will take some time to fade the dark spots. I'll prescribe some medicine for you. Just apply it every day, and they should be gone in two months at most."
Two months!
Lu Qingqing gave a clear timeframe.
In the past, the words they heard most often were:
"You're too late, it'll be harder to treat this now. Let's try applying some medicine first!"
"These are all just trial and error attempts; no one can guarantee they'll work."
"If that doesn't work, I'll adjust the formula for you."
...The brother and sister couldn't help but cry again.
I cried for all the grievances I've suffered over the years.
Crying will bring you immediate light.
Lu Qingqing was used to this scene and showed no expression as she packed her things to leave.
Lin Zhuang called her again.
"Dr. Lu!" This time, the address was changed directly, and the respect was evident in the words.
"Don't call me that yet."
Lu Qingqing has not yet obtained her medical license.
Keep a low profile.
"Miss Qingqing," Lin Zhuang immediately changed his form of address.
“My family is broke right now, but I found a ginseng plant in these mountains.”
I went to the city to ask, and people said that if it grows to have four or five palmate leaves, it is a twenty-year-old ginseng and can be sold for twenty taels of silver.
That ginseng already has three leaves; I was originally planning to wait..."
“That person lied to you.” Lu Qingqing interrupted him. “Three leaves are already equivalent to a thirty-year-old ginseng, worth thirty taels of silver!”
If it grows to four pieces, then it must be a fifty-year-old ginseng, which could sell for a hundred taels of silver!
These people are just trying to drive down prices and cheat people who don't know anything about the industry.
Fortunately, Lin Zhuang didn't dig it up to sell.
Lin Zhuang was dumbfounded.
He's been scammed again!
"Kid, you've really run into my sister, your ancestors' graves are emitting auspicious smoke." Lu Yun grinned.
"yes!"
The Lin siblings didn't know how to repay them.
"Miss Qingqing, the wild ginseng is right here... Go and dig it up, and consider it as our brother and sister's medical expenses. No matter how much it sells for, it's all yours!"
"No need. I'll dig it up and sell it. Besides the medical expenses, I'll also get a little extra for my trouble. You can keep the rest to repair your house and get married. You're not getting any younger."
Lin Zhuang: "..."
Lu Qingqing smiled.
Thirty-year-old wild ginseng has reached maturity, with round stems, and it will flower and bear fruit, with some seeds falling off.
There must be its offspring nearby.
Or if you're lucky, you might also find its mother, a so-called century-old freak!
Lu Qingqing couldn't wait and went up the mountain with Lu Yun.
Lin Zhuang covered the wild ginseng and transplanted some shrubs nearby to completely conceal it.
Lu Yun used a sickle to cut down the bushes and saw the ginseng plant tied with a red rope.
"I heard that if you find ginseng, you should shout 'club' three times and then tie it with a red rope so that it can't run away."
Is this true?
Lu Yun was somewhat skeptical, so he reached out and pinched the red thread.
"It's true, especially the last thirty years. They run incredibly fast. Once the red string is untied, the rotten smell disappears."
"ah!"
Lu Yun swiftly withdrew his hand.
Before they could even feel relieved, they heard Lu Qingqing shout, "Oh no! It's going to run away!"
With a "plop!" sound, Lu Yun pounced on it and tightly gripped the ginseng stem.
Lu Qingqing giggled.
Lu Yun then realized that she was playing a trick on him again.
Strange, yet familiar.
He couldn't get angry.
The laughter stopped abruptly, and Lu Qingqing suddenly stared at Lu Yun with a changed expression.
"What, what are you trying to say now? Could it be that the ginseng has become a spirit?"
I heard that ginseng can turn into a little baby and go down the mountain to watch a play...
Lu Qingqing took a step forward and reached out to grab the ground.
A coiled snake was lifted from Lu Yun's face.
The cool, slippery snake tail brushed against his ear.
Well……
Lu Qingqing moved extremely quickly, releasing the snake's head and instead pinching its tail. With a flick of her wrist, the struggling snake instantly lost all its strength.
She then used her other hand to stroke the snake's tail downwards.
The snake, as thick as a bamboo pole, became completely still, as if it were dead.
Lu Yun stared at her with wide eyes.
"It's not poisonous, and it's quite plump; we can make snake soup with it."
Unfortunately, it has little medicinal value.
After Lu Qingqing finished speaking, she suddenly realized that Lu Yun didn't seem to be afraid, but rather...
The original owner was afraid of snakes!
Once, Lu Yun deliberately threw a snake at her feet. The original owner was so frightened that she couldn't even scream. For a long time, she loathed Lu Yun and looked at him like an enemy.
Lu Yun also got a beating from his father.
Her performance just now... was simply overflowing with domineering aura...
"Yes, that's something Mother taught me in a dream."
When in trouble, turn to your mother.
Believe it or not!
"I know you're starting to remember things from your childhood, right?"
Um?
Now it was Lu Qingqing's turn to be puzzled.
What does that mean?
"You won't turn back, right?"
"Lu Qingqing, you're finally back!"
