Wang Yao used the medicine carefully and increased its dosage.
After the chest, it was the back. With the help of the medical staff, the patient barely managed to turn her body. The treatment for the back had yet to finish, but the medicine was all used up.
Phew, Wang Yao let out a sigh of relief.
The process was very detailed and had no problems. The next thing was to see the effects. It was estimated that the specific effects would be known at this time the next day.
“Madam Song, the formulated medicine has been used up. We’ll see the results of the treatment tomorrow. I’m planning to go back to Lianshan County tomorrow afternoon and re-decoct the medicine,” Wang Yao said.
“Can’t you decoct it here? You can say what you need directly,” Song Ruiping replied.
“I can’t,” Wang Yao answered.
There were too many advantages on Nanshan hill. There was the multifunctional pot for herbs, ancient spring water, and the spirit-gathering battle array. He could not use these things here. Moreover, he had to come up with an idea to exchange the Everlasting grass and Lingshanji which were needed in making the medicine.
Song Ruiping did not speak a word.
“Then, when can you come back?”
“It’s uncertain. Within a month, I’ll be back as soon as possible.”
“Do you need any help?”
“Yes.” With a smile, Wang Yao responded, “I need some unique medicinal herbs.”
“I’ll arrange for Boyuan to do it right away.”
She originally wanted to discuss with Wang Yao whether she could buy his formula. However, after talking to her husband, she changed her mind. In any case, her daughter’s illness was getting better. This was what they hoped for. Compared to the health of her own daughter, it was not a big deal to wait for another two days.
“Dr. Wang, why don’t you stay and have lunch with us?”
“Alright.” Wang Yao accepted the invitation this time after thinking.
Lunch was arranged very quickly. Su Xianghua also purposely came back from his workplace. The dishes were more towards a bland taste.
During the meal, the couple expressed their gratitude towards Wang Yao. After lunch, Su Xianghua spoke to Wang Yao for a while. Besides thanking him, it was also considered as bringing some words into the open, mainly expressing some concerns.
“Mr. Su, since I decided to treat this patient, I’ll be responsible until the end.”
Since the other party asked, Wang Yao also expressed his attitude.
“Alright, alright,” Su Xianghua responded with a smile.
“The things you need will be ready as soon as possible.”
After chatting, Wang Yao made a move to leave. He did not like the feeling of being at the Su family’s house. It felt a bit constraining and uncomfortable.
Not long after Wang Yao returned to the small courtyard, Chen Boyuan came rushing over. Wang Yao gave him a list which specified some pricier Chinese medicine herbs.
“What is this?”
“Medicine herbs. I want them wild.”
“Okay. I’ll get them ready as soon as possible,” Chen Boyuan said while looking at the list. There were many types of medicine herbs on it, and the amount required was larger.
“I need to use these herbs when I go back to Lianshan County.”
“No problem.”
In fact, only a small number of the medicinal herbs that Wang Yao listed were used to decoct the Muscle Revitalization powder. Most of the medicinal herbs were used as exchange points through the system in order to purchase Everlasting grass and Lingshanji. Now that Su Xiaoxue’s condition had improved, it was necessary to quickly use the medicine.
In the afternoon, Wang Yao told his second aunt that he was preparing to return to Lianshan County the next day. His second aunt wanted him to have a meal at her house, but he declined. There were plenty of things to be done that night.
That night, he stayed in his room until late at night.
He prepared two formulas overnight. One of them was the weakened version of the Muscle Revitalization powder. He replaced the most important Everlasting grass and Lingshanji with common medicinal herbs. The overall effect was similar, but the effects had to be verified. The other formula was relatively simple. It regulated the body’s function and consolidated the corporeity. He prepared it for He Qisheng’s mother hoping it would be helpful to her.
The news of him leaving was only known to a few people.
Early the next morning, Guo Sirou came to the small villa. Wang Yao was still having breakfast, soy milk, and fritters when she arrived.
“Are you leaving?” It was the first sentence she said after seeing Wang Yao.
“Yes,” Wang Yao replied calmly while lifting his head.
The news was indeed spread very quickly.
“Why the rush?”
“I’m going back to celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival.” Wang Yao’s response made Guo Sirou pause her breath.
What an incisive reason.
“When are you coming back?”
“Within a month, as soon as possible,” Wang Yao answered.
Guo Sirou became silent. A month. Could her grandfather sustain for a month?
“My grandfather…”
“At least three months.”
“Are there no other ways?”
“No, unless you could invite a god,” Wang Yao said while helplessly spreading open his hands.
It might be able to be dragged on for a while if the Prolongation pill was used. However, after a period of time, the Prolongation pill had to be used again. Furthermore, once the effect of this remedy was circulated, then Wang Yao would no longer be able to live a quiet life.
All of a sudden, Guo Sirou asked, “What about your master?”
“My master?” Wang Yao was surprised.
“Isn’t such incredible pharmaceutical technology taught by a famous master?” Of course, this was only her guess, and there was no direct evidence.
“Haha, he’s in heaven.” Wang Yao pointed at the sky.
Guo Sirou did not persist, although she knew she was a bit anxious.
“Sorry.”
“It’s understandable.”
Guo Sirou just left when He Qisheng came. He received a call from Wang Yao.
“This is a formula. I think it may be helpful in treating your mom’s disease.”
It seemed that Wang Yao just went out a few times these days and spent most of the time going out for a walk. In fact, he had been thinking about how to treat those special diseases, such as cancer. These things were only mentioned in the knowledge instilled by the system. He had some ideas and could try them out.
“Thank you,” He Qisheng said while taking the formula.
“Don’t let other people see this formula.”
The same formula was not necessarily suitable for different people.
“I know.”
He Qisheng expressed his gratitude and left.
After he left, Wang Yao brewed a pot of tea and invited Chen Ying into the room.
“Thank you for your help all this time.”
“It’s what I should do.”
“I don’t have a good idea on how to heal your brother’s illness for the time being. I’ll think about the treatment plan again.”
“Thank you,” Chen Ying replied happily.
“Smile more like this.”
After hearing that, Chen Ying’s face turned slightly red.
…
In the morning, Wang Yao went to the Su family’s house again to do a checkup on Su Xiaoxue for the last time before leaving.
The gauze was removed layer by layer and lots of scabs fell out. This was the dead tissue. A large number of new pinkish flesh appeared in various parts of the body. It was a good sign.
“However, the herbal medicine isn’t enough. If the medicine is better, it can have a better effect or even a phased effect.”
The Su family had already booked a plane ticket for him.
In the afternoon, Chen Boyuan personally drove him to the airport and returned to Haiqu City with him.
“Do you have anything to do in Haiqu?”
“No. I’m accompanying you on purpose.”
“There’s no need for this,” Wang Yao answered quickly.
“Haha. Please.”
In the evening, the plane landed in Haiqu City. When they came out of the airport, there was already someone waiting outside. After seeing Chen Boyuan, the man said a few words to him, leaving the car and car keys behind and left.
“Please,” Chen Boyuan said.
He drove Wang Yao home and brought a box of gifts.
“Why do you bring these things again? Why don’t you have a seat inside the house?” Wang Yao asked.
“It’s alright. It’s getting late. I’ll go back first. I’ll send over the things you want as soon as possible,” Chen Boyuan responded.
“Okay.”
“Have you eaten?” Wang Yao’s mother asked.
“I have. Don’t make yourself busy. Where’s Dad?”
“He’s on the mountain. He’s been staying there these past few nights,” Zhang Xiuying replied.
“Then, I’ll go up the mountain and let my father come down.”
“Don’t rush. Why don’t you rest first?”
“It’s okay. I’m not tired.”
Wang Yao went up the mountain after speaking with his mother. The village was very quiet. This was the difference between the two environments in Jing City and the village.
Except for the village, there were glittering lights after entering the mountain. There was a darkness in front of him. After turning around a mountain peak, a glimpse of dimness appeared in front of his eyes. It was particularly eye-catching in the night.
