528: Chapter 529: Regret Not eting Sooner
Song Xiaodong said, “This patient has been addicted to alcohol and sensual pleasures for many years, leading to yin deficiency and severe damage to his liver and lung ridians, causing his body to be extrely weak.
Normally, prescribing him so nourishing dicines to enhance his physique is not wrong.”
“Oh?
What else?” Lin Yi’s brows slightly relaxed upon hearing what Song Xiaodong said, for it matched his own diagnosis.
“However, this patient has also consud too much aphrodisiac dicine, which has already caused his yang energy to be overly vigorous.
With yang being excessive and yin deficient, further nourishnt would only intensify the yang, thus causing him more harm.
Even if his body temporarily recovers, as ti passes, his physical functions will be greatly weakened, and his life might even be in danger.”
Lin Yi’s expression changed, and he took Mr.
Zheng’s pulse again.
As his expression grew more serious, it took him a while before he finally exhaled in relief and said, “I indeed overlooked this.
Thankfully the discovery was tily.
Now there’s still ti to redy this.
Brother Song, how about we each prescribe a prescription and see if they match?”
“Sure, then please pardon my plain efforts, Mr.
Lin,” Song Xiaodong replied without demurral, accepting the paper and writing quickly without deep contemplation.
After a short while, both had finished writing and then showed their prescriptions to each other.
“Ingenious!”
“Impressive!”
The two n exclaid at the sa ti, then looking at each other, their eyes revealed mutual admiration.
Lin Yi said, “Brother Song, your prescription is indeed marvelous, unassuming yet unexpectedly victorious.
It is truly a stroke of genius.”
Song Xiaodong quickly replied, “This youngster’s prescription is sowhat risky; it’s Mr.
Lin’s prescription that is well-balanced and reveals greater martial power.”
“Haha, I feel that our prescriptions should be further harmonized to achieve a better effect.”
“Then I shall respectfully comply,” Xiaodong said.
The two imdiately began scrutinizing each other’s prescriptions, complenting weaknesses and combining strengths.
By the ti they finalized the prescription, they couldn’t help but exchange smiles, feeling that this was the best course of action.
Lin Yi handed the combined prescription to Mr.
Zheng, saying, “Xiao Zheng, just get this prescription filled when you go back.
I reckon that after half a month of taking it, you’ll be back to normal.”
Mr.
Zheng, who had been uneasy all this while, finally let out a sigh of relief.
Song Xiaodong imdiately said, “Mr.
Lin, I think it’s best for this dicine to be brewed in your pharmacy, as the order of adding the herbs and the heat control are quite particular for this prescription, and it’s difficult for ordinary people to get it right, which would prevent the dicine from being as effective as it could be.”
“Right, right, I did overlook that detail.
Brother Song, you really are ticulous.
That is what makes a truly skilled doctor.
I see that I have been sowhat arrogant and complacent over the years,” Lin Yi readily agreed.
After a few more modest remarks from Xiaodong, Lin Yi called over an attendant and explained in detail the intricacies involved in brewing the dicine.
The attendant noted everything carefully, and Song Xiaodong could tell that the staff here were indeed professional.
When Mr.
Zheng had left, Lin Yi laughed heartily and said, “Brother Song, I must confess I regret not having t you sooner.”
Song Xiaodong hurriedly replied, “The honor is mine to have t Mr.
Lin.”
Lin Yi waved his hand dismissively and said, “True heroes are often young.
Traditional Chinese dicine has been weakening over the years, and I have not seen the rise of any outstanding talents, until today, which is a truly fortunate event in my life.”
“Mr.
Lin flatters .
As for the dicinal materials I require…”
“Of course, there’s no problem.
If they were mine alone, I would just give them to you.
But since our dicinal material company has other shareholders, I can only offer you them at cost price.
I hope Brother Song doesn’t mind.”
“For Mr.
Lin to be willing to part with them is more than enough for .
As for the price, there’s no need for a discount.
I have so savings, and I wouldn’t want to trouble Mr.
Lin unnecessarily.”
“Brother Song truly is a dragon among n, unmoved by profit.
Then I won’t insist.
But may I know how you intend to use these ingredients?
After all, it’s rare nowadays to see anyone use such old and rare items.”
Song Xiaodong hesitated.
After all, the dicine he was developing was not sothing he wanted to disclose, but he found it difficult to conceal it from soone like Lin Yi.
Lin Yi, noticing Song Xiaodong’s reluctance, felt even more admiration.
It was better to be respectfully taciturn than to make up excuses.
He laughed and said, “If it’s inconvenient, there’s no need to say.
I trust you, young man, and I know you won’t waste such treasures of heaven and earth.”
“Then I must apologize.
If I manage to succeed, I will certainly bring a portion to Mr.
Lin to aid in enhancing your martial power even further,” Song Xiaodong promised.
“Are you saying this is related to Kung Fu?” Lin Yi’s eyes lit up, followed by a startle.
He had practiced for many years, and despite having only just t Song Xiaodong, the young man had discerned his practice.
His insight was indeed sharp.
“Hmm, that’s all I can say for now.”
“This is truly intriguing.
I’ve recently acquired a few items, including a Mountain Ginseng over a hundred years old, two polygonum multiflorum roots that are about a century old, and a Lingzhi mushroom nearly two hundred years old.
If you need them, I’ll do what I can to find more,” Lin Yi offered.
Song Xiaodong imdiately expressed his delight, “To have so many valuable items, this is indeed a great bounty!” The Fang Family had only managed to get him a Mountain Ginseng that was two hundred years old, yet Lin Yi had provided even more valuable goods.
“Hehe, the Fang Family ca to
asking for them, and I refused.
It seems we are fated,” Lin Yi laughed.
Song Xiaodong laughed and said, “The Fang Family was also looking on my behalf.”
Lin Yi was taken aback and then exclaid in surprise, “You’re with the Fang Family?”
Song Xiaodong shook his head and replied, “No, the Fang Family just did
a favor.”
“The Fang Family did you a favor!” Lin Yi’s mouth twitched as he said, “It appears I’ve underestimated you again.
Your identity must be extraordinary.”
“I have no special identity.
I’ve simply helped them before, and they owe
a favor,” Song Xiaodong clarified.
Lin Yi was nonchalant, replying, “Well then, I won’t pry any further.
I’ll have the items sent to you imdiately.”
Though these items weren’t the kind that were a millennium old, they were still all over a hundred years old, making them quite exquisite for Song Xiaodong.
He believed that, even if the results weren’t as miraculous as ntioned in ancient texts, the dicine would certainly have significant effects.
“Wait, Mr.
Lin, these dicines cannot be given to him!” Just then, a woman’s urgent voice called from outside.
