Book 2: Chapter 13: Gambling
The physiologic composition of the humans in this world was 99% similar or higher compared to the physiologic composition of the humans on Earth. Their dical system as a whole was also very identical; it was just the chemical elents and dical liquid-liquid extraction that were different from Earth.
Qin Lun had learned an entire set of clinical dicine when he was in Hebei Supermax Prison. Plus, when he first entered this world, he had compared it to the basic dical text in the Stein residence. With dical theory added on top of it, he was unconditionally a qualified doctor.
From when he had first gotten into contact with the plague virus on Franks body to when he had done surgery on Morrison in Odia Town, Qin Lun was able to collect so samples. Because Steins house had already been burned down, Qin Lun did not have any suitable tools for experints. However, it did not hinder him from conducting so simple experints.
Though his experints, Qin Lun confird two speculations. The first was that this plague virus was so kind of living microorganism. Its phagocytic nature was extrely strong, and to the humans of this world, it was like a cancer cell that had strengthened its might a hundredfold.
The second was that although this kind of virus had a very hard ti coexisting with other cellular life forms it held the possibility of being neutralized. Through the World Tree Flower Nectar Qin Lun had on hand, his final conclusion through his experints was that if the attribute of the World Flower Tree Nectar was Life, then the attribute for this plague would be Death.
It was also the reason why the World Tree Flower Nectar had the capability to drive off the plague, Life and Death were incompatible attributes. However, Qin Lun had witnessed by chance that these two attributes could, under certain circumstances, reach a balanced state.
It happened a few days after he had cured Morrison. At that ti, Albert Castle had still not invited him and Odia Towns plague patients continued to visit him in an endless stream. Within these plagued patients, Qin Lun discovered a young married woman amongst them who had just started to breastfeed and she sohow did not die despite falling ill for a week.
After he examined this young married woman, Qin Lun found that the reason for her current status was quite simple. Her milk had a high degree of Life Essence that counteracted the plagues
Death attribute and slowed down the progression of the illness.
This unexpected discovery lit up Qin Luns eyes. He used the mothers milk as a base and a diated dose, then added a bit of diluted World Tree Flower Nectar to the virus specins. Through several experints, he had obtained a nutrient fluid that only lasted three to four days. This kind of nutrient fluid was capable of deferring the plague from breaking out and prolonging a patients life for approximately a week.
Qin Lun had used two whole drops of World Tree Flower Nectar for the experint, it looked like he had only found the superfluous piece and not the root of it. He also had only used two drops of the nectar when he saved Frank and Morrison.
Although it looked superfluous, what Qin Lun wanted was this kind of weakened version of nutrient fluid. He had long had a guess that the plague and Albert Family were connected. His show from before was to obtain the Albert Familys invitation. His reason for going there was not to save soone, but to search the way to complete his mission.
The nutrient fluid could only prolong the patients life and not completely cure them. Only then could he stay in the castle and obtain more ti to stay there.
Qin Lun had only noticed when he saw little Miller, and by the stroke of luck, made the mothers milk into the best dicine for the little guy. The plague within little Millers body had already reached an equilibrium with his immune system; however, his bodys condition was not very promising due to him lying unconscious on the bed all year round.
The nutrient fluid could not treat an illness, but it was still sothing that had the World Tree Flower Nectar added in: a super nourishnt. It had the maximum advantage in helping little Millers health. Qin Luns only worry was if a reverse result would happen when the balanced nutrient fluid ca into contact with the balanced little Miller. After all, in the nutrient fluid was the sa virus.
What was fortunate for Qin Lun was that his gamble paid off. Little Millers body accepted the nutrient fluid and left him nourished. It was with the diluted World Tree Flower Nectar and the mothers milk as an interdiary. Therefore, an intense conflict did not happen between the nectar and the plague within the little boys body.
Qin Luns train of thought went through many twists and turns concerning the old barons ambiguous answer.
For the ti being, I still need to observe him for a few days. If my dicine really is effective for Young Master Millers health, then when his body function recovers a bit, it is possible that he will wake up! Qin Lun raised the teacup again and slowly said, However, this kind of dicine is very precious and the mixture is very complicated. I need to go to Odia Town to procure so of the materials
Tony, get Jason to bring all the remaining dicine in the castle here. Let Doctor Stein see if there are any that are suitable for his solution. The old baron and his family mbers exchanged glances, with a hint of a smile in their eyes. Qin Lun said his dicine was precious and the blending was complicated. To them, it naturally sounded like he was asking for remuneration.
However, that was only natural! Since this young doctor was capable of solving the plague that even the court physicians were helpless with and save Odia and little Miller, how could the Albert Family be stingy with an insignificant bit of wealth?
I heard that Doctor Stein still hasnt obtained his formal dical license. For such a highly-skilled doctor like you, this is simply an insult. After this event is successfully settled, the Albert Family will be willing to be your guarantor! The old baron seriously promised.
Qin Lun smiled but didnt speak. He did not need a dical license. As long as he could continue to stay in Albert Castle, then he had already achieved his purpose.
A while later, the old butler Jason brought a basket full of dical reagents. Qin Lun picked up a few of these reagent bottles and checked them out. He knew these things were useless for him. A mothers milk wasnt a dicine, nor was the nectar sothing of this world. However, his anesthetics and antibiotics were all used up, so replenishing it here wasnt a bad thing.
Suddenly, Qin Luns hand went rigid. He looked at a certain small reagent bottle, and his pupils shrunk a bit. This reagent bottle had JR on it. When he looked even closer, there was also HP, YP, and so on.
Looking at these capital letters that labeled the reagent bottle, Qin Luns gaze beca unsettled. Perhaps the Albert Family thought these letters were dicine nas, but he knew for sure that although these appeared to be like dicine nas, they werent.
That was because in his dical box, he also had a few unique reagent bottles marked with capital letters. One example would be that mothers milk nutrient fluid. These types of dicine did not mark what kind they were, so only the doctor would know what they were. These dicines were all from this ti periods doctors, and these were their private blends with special effects.
Qin Luns nutrient fluid reagent bottle had ST labeled on it. This was not the na of the item but the capital letters of the Stein familys na. The way the Stein family distinguished their special effect dicines was not through na, but through the reagent bottle color.
This basket of dicine contained things that werent stored in the castle, but the special dicine of those doctors that had died at Albert Castle!
Touching these ice-cold reagent bottles, the hair on Qin Luns hand rose. He took a few bottles of common anesthetics and antibiotics, then waved his hand to have the old butler take away the basket.
The thing I need isnt here. I will have my attendant, Frank, go to the nearby towns to procure so. Qin Lun stood up from the chair and walked to the entrance. In the next few days, I will stay behind to observe Young Master Millers condition. I will be troubling everyone!
Doctor Stein, dont be so polite! For little Miller to obtain your help is our familys honor! The old baron led his daughter and son up and expressed his gratitude to Qin Lun. The old butler by the side handed a silk bag to him.
Swish swish! Qin Lun tossed the silk bag in his hand, and his mouth slightly curved up. He walked to the castles courtyard with Frank. The silk bag was full of gold coins. This was the money the Albert Family gave him to obtain the materials, and it was also naturally the reward for his milky white dicine.
Frank, how was the matter I had you to get information about? Qin Lun swept a glance around his surroundings and quietly asked.
Young Master Wellington, that situation isnt so kind of secret among the castles servants. I roughly know the direction, but I still need to go to the site and take a good look! Frank scratched his head, also speaking in a low, muffled voice.
Hm! Rember, besides buying those things in town, on the early morning of the fourth day, wait across the castles strong bridge for . Rember to hide well, dont let other people see you. Qin Lun threw the whole bag of gold coins to Frank and quietly ordered him.
YoungYoung Master, you dont need to give
this much! Franks hand trembled, almost letting go of the coin bag.
Ill give it all to you. From now on, you are the Stein Familys butler! Qin Lun grinned. What use did he have for this worlds gold coins? All he needed were Shattered Starry Skys things. He wanted this loyal servant to be able to have a livelihood after he left, so he would just take it as Franks wages for this point of ti.
Frank went silent and did not speak, but he seriously received the bag and left the castle without looking back, disappearing at the end of the mountain road.
Doctor Stein! Youre up so early for a walk again!
Yes, Jason, gotten used to it! Qin Lun jogged over the stone bridge, wearing a smile as he waved his hand at the old housekeeper in the courtyard.
In these past few days, Qin Luns life in the castle was ordinary and diocre. He would observe little Millers health status every day and then chat with the Albert Family.
And every evening, the young doctor would return to his room at the exact sa ti and would tell the old butler Jason to not allow anyone to disturb him. That was his ti for blending dicine. And in the early morning, the young doctor would always jog out of the castle and take a walk for around half an hour outside before returning.
After he did this for two to three days, the whole castle knew that this was his habit. However, this was nothing worth being curious about. The evening was the quietest ti period, and it was favorable for the young doctor to concentrate and synthesize his dicine. And running in the morning was even more normal.
On the night of the third day, from when the hunchbacked servant left, accurately speaking, it was an hour away from dawn. A figure opened the small city gate and ran out of the castle, disappearing along the stone bridge into the dark
