Chapter 116: Medicine is Not Simple

“Wait!” The doctor took a step forward, his face full of astonishment as he examined Lu Qingyun’s wound,

 “New flesh has grown so quickly. It’s truly unbelievable.”

 In his many years of medical practice, he had never encountered such a situation before.

Logically, on the second day after an injury, the wound would still be bleeding.

 It was already rare for the wound to scab over, but now, Lu Qingyun’s wound had not only scabbed over completely but also had new flesh growing. Such an amazing healing speed was astounding.

Did Lu Qingyun have a special, unique constitution?

Thinking back to the scenes in the operating room yesterday, the doctor thoughtfully turned to look at Ling Yao beside him.

When he stepped out of the operating room, Lu Qingyun’s heart rate and blood pressure had dropped to dangerous levels. His vital signs were extremely weak.

Based on his many years of accumulated medical experience, he judged that Lu Qingyun only had a breath left and could die at any moment.

However, unexpectedly, shortly after Ling Yao and the others entered the operating room, the situation took an astonishing turn.

 Lu Qingyun’s previously critical condition had improved.

A nurse who was present at the time told him after leaving the operating room that she saw Ling Yao feed Lu Qingyun a pill.

Not long after, Lu Qingyun’s heart rate returned to normal, and his blood pressure began to rise slowly.

Yesterday, when he heard the nurse’s account, he didn’t pay much attention.

 Now, thinking back and considering the current situation, he couldn’t help but feel curious and doubtful:

 Could it be that Lu Qingyun’s successful escape from death and recovery was truly inseparable from the pill that Ling Yao gave him?

Ling Yao efficiently helped Lu Qingyun change his bandages and carefully helped him lie back down on the bed.

“Did you give Captain Lu a pill yesterday? What kind of pill was it? Can I take a look?” The doctor couldn’t help but ask.

Ling Yao turned to look at the doctor, “Just a regular pill.”

“Then can I take a look?” The doctor looked at Ling Yao persistently, his eyes full of longing.

Ling Yao reached into her pocket and took out a small, exquisite jade bottle. She handed it to the doctor.

This pill was carefully refined using herbs from her space.

The medicinal power and properties it contained were extremely complex and mysterious.

 Even she, if she didn’t rely on special methods, couldn’t fully analyze all its components.

“Thank you!” The doctor was filled with curiosity.

He took the bottle, opened the lid, and a strong medicinal fragrance instantly filled the air, invigorating the senses.

The doctor was even more interested in the medicine. Unfortunately, he wasn’t a TCM practitioner and had limited knowledge of Chinese herbs.

 Although he knew the pill was extraordinary, he couldn’t tell what ingredients were in it.

“Comrade! Can you give me a pill, or could you tell me the price? I’d buy one.” The doctor’s eyes sparkled with longing.

 He looked at Ling Yao with sincerity.

 He didn’t understand TCM, but his master had many friends in the TCM world. Maybe someone could analyze the components of this pill.

Ling Yao thought for a moment and nodded slightly, “Then take one.” She had refined a lot of these pills this time.

 It didn’t matter if she gave him one.

“Thank you! Thank you!” The doctor was extremely excited.

He poured one into his palm, then closed the lid and handed the bottle back to Ling Yao with both hands.

Ling Yao took the bottle and put it back in her pocket.

“Comrade! I’ll go back to my office now. If Captain Lu is feeling uncomfortable, go to my office and find me.”

“Okay.” Ling Yao nodded.

The doctor returned to his office and immediately called his teacher,

“Teacher! I need your help with something. Yesterday…” He recounted the incident in detail.

“I suspect that Lu Qingyun’s wound healing so quickly might be related to the pill.”

“Okay, I’ll wait for you!”

The doctor hung up the phone, took out the pill, and examined it carefully. He sniffed it again.

 He didn’t know if it was his imagination, but he felt a surge of energy when he smelled the pill.

Not long after, two old men with white hair and vigorous spirits arrived at the doctor’s office.

The elder who was walking in front couldn’t wait to ask the doctor as soon as he entered the office, “Chu Cheng! Quickly show me the pill you mentioned on the phone.”

Chu Cheng didn’t dare to hesitate. He quickly took a small medicine bottle from his drawer and carefully handed it to the elder.

The elder quickly took the bottle, unscrewed the lid, and sniffed it carefully. Then, he handed the bottle to the other elder beside him,

 “Wenshan, you smell it too. This medicine seems to invigorate the spirit.”

Liu Wenshan reached out and took the bottle. He sniffed the medicinal aroma emanating from the bottle. A gleam flashed in his usually calm eyes,

 “With my current abilities, I can’t identify the specific ingredients in this pill. But one thing is certain, this medicine is not ordinary.”

With that, he turned to Chu Cheng, “Where is the person who gave you this pill? I want to meet them.”

“She’s in Captain Lu’s ward. She’s Captain Lu’s girlfriend.” Chu Cheng answered truthfully.

“What’s Captain Lu’s ward number?”

“303.”

Liu Wenshan nodded, “Old Liu, I’ll go see Captain Lu.” He was friends with Captain Lu’s grandfather and also knew Captain Lu.

Knowing that Captain Lu was injured, he naturally had to go visit him.

“I’ll go with you.” Old Liu followed Liu Wenshan.

Chu Cheng thought for a moment and followed them out.

They arrived at the ward. Liu Wenshan gently knocked on the door and then pushed it open.

In the ward, Ling Yao was peeling an apple for Lu Qingyun. Hearing the knock on the door, she turned to look.

 Seeing Liu Wenshan walking in, she smiled and stood up to greet him, “Elder Liu! How come you’re here?”

She met Liu Wenshan when she treated Lu Qingyun’s grandfather last time.

Later, Liu Wenshan had visited her a few times to discuss some medical knowledge with her.

“Who are you?” Liu Wenshan carefully examined Ling Yao. He felt a sense of familiarity, but he couldn’t remember where he had seen her.

“I’m Ling Yao.” Ling Yao smiled.

Liu Wenshan opened his eyes in surprise, his face full of disbelief as he looked Ling Yao up and down,

 “You’re Ling Yao? You’ve changed too much!” He couldn’t believe that the graceful and refined beauty in front of him was the same dark and chubby little girl he remembered.

When she was in Yuncheng, Ling Yao was just an unremarkable little girl.

Now, she had blossomed into such a charming and graceful beauty.

 Not only had her figure become slender and delicate, but her skin had also become as white as snow.

She seemed to have been reborn, radiating a unique charm that made it almost impossible to recognize her.

“I took some Chinese medicine to regulate my body. Elder Liu, you’re here to see Brother Lu, right?”
