Chapter 7

"Who would have thought that giving three silver coins would increase the favorability by 30%? If I had known money could solve the problem, I would have given more and completed the task much faster. What a miscalculation! What a miscalculation!" Ye Xuan put away his umbrella, walked into Baozhi Lin with the medicine, and shook his head in regret.

"What miscalculation, Little Xuan?" Thirteenth Aunt's voice suddenly came from behind Ye Xuan, her face full of a mischievous smile.

"Nothing, and didn't I tell you not to call me Little Xuan?" Ye Xuan said, looking at Thirteenth Aunt behind him with a helpless expression.

Perhaps because they were of similar age and had both studied abroad, Thirteenth Aunt didn't treat Ye Xuan like she did Huang Feihong's other disciples. In front of Ye Xuan, Thirteenth Aunt was more like a young girl, showing the youthful and playful side of her age.

"Should I call you Little Ye instead of Little Xuan?" Seeing Ye Xuan's gloomy face, Thirteenth Aunt wrinkled her nose, feigning confusion, but the mischief in her eyes couldn't be hidden.

"You... " Seeing Thirteenth Aunt's appearance, Ye Xuan rolled his eyes and glared at her, then suddenly said, "If you keep calling me that, I'll go tell Master that someone was hiding and watching him practice last night."

"You... What's wrong with me watching Huang Feihong practice? I was just curious about his martial arts." Thirteenth Aunt's face flushed with anger as she defended herself.

"Oh! If that's the case, then it's fine!" Ye Xuan shrugged and nodded indifferently.

"What do you mean 'if that's the case'? It was like that from the beginning..." Seeing Ye Xuan's appearance, Thirteenth Aunt was almost ready to explode with anger.

"Oh, right, Master was looking for you just now." Seeing Thirteenth Aunt almost stamp her foot in anger, Ye Xuan suddenly said.

"What? Huang Feihong is looking for me? When? What for?" Hearing that Huang Feihong was looking for her, Thirteenth Aunt immediately forgot about being angry at Ye Xuan and asked anxiously and hopefully.

"I don't know, go ask him yourself. I have something to do, I'll go first!" Ye Xuan shrugged, left the curious Thirteenth Aunt behind, and walked in with the herbs.

"Hey, Little... Ah Xuan, wait..."

...

"Come, Ah Xuan, you've been at Baozhi Lin for quite some time now. You've learned the basics of treating bruises and fractures. Today, Master will teach you the secret recipe for our Baozhi Lin's special bruise and fracture wine!"

Inside the pharmacy, three tall medicine cabinets were neatly arranged, and some medicine racks were placed beside them. The herbs that needed to be dried in the shade were neatly placed on the racks. Despite the many herbs, the place didn't feel cluttered.

Huang Feihong called Ye Xuan to the pharmacy. Ye Xuan had been at Baozhi Lin for nearly half a year, and Huang Feihong thought he had learned enough about treating bruises and fractures and was ready to start learning how to make medicinal wine.

Every doctor who treated bruises and fractures had their own secret recipe for the wine, and Huang Feihong was no exception. His recipe had been refined and improved over more than ten years, making it highly effective.

"Come, I'll tell you, and you'll pick the herbs!" Huang Feihong said, standing beside Ye Xuan.

"Yes, Master!"

"1 liang of Niu Li Da Li!"

"1 liang of Qian Jin Ba!"

"Most bruises and fractures are caused by external force, leading to immediate stagnation of qi and blood stasis. The main ingredients in the bruise and fracture wine I developed are Niu Li Da Li and Qian Jin Ba. In traditional medicine, Niu Li Da Li and Qian Jin Ba are associated with the kidney meridian. The kidneys are the most important of the five organs and six腑 (fu) organs. When the kidney qi is abundant, the qi and blood are strong, and all evil and blood stasis will naturally dissipate, achieving the effect of removing stasis and promoting new growth." Huang Feihong watched Ye Xuan pick the herbs and explained the principles to him.

"1 liang of Ban Feng He!"

"1 liang of Kuan Gen Teng!"

"Ban Feng He and Kuan Gen Teng enter the liver meridian, so they can dispel evil winds and relax the tendons." Seeing Ye Xuan pick the Kuan Gen Teng, Huang Feihong explained further.

"5 qian of Tian Qi!"

"5 qian of Jin Er Huan!"

"Tian Qi and Jin Er Huan are associated with the spleen meridian. The spleen is responsible for transforming and transporting blood to the limbs, so they have the effect of stopping pain and reducing swelling, making them the secondary main ingredients in the bruise and fracture wine."

"Alright, soak all the herbs in the wine. This wine is 1.5 jin, seal it, and it will be ready in 15 days." Huang Feihong pointed to a small wine jar.

"System task: Treat Uncle Jiu, who was injured by a foreign gun. Success reward: 1500 cultivation points. Failure penalty: 1000 cultivation points."

Just as Ye Xuan was about to soak the herbs in the wine jar, the system in his mind suddenly issued a new task, causing him to pause.

"What's wrong, Ah Xuan?" Huang Feihong saw Ye Xuan suddenly freeze and asked curiously.

"Nothing, Master!" Ye Xuan snapped back to reality, forced a smile, and continued the process of soaking the herbs. In his mind, he was thinking about the strange task the system had suddenly issued. From his understanding of the system, it was likely something that was about to happen.

"Master Huang, Master Huang, save me!"

"Master, someone is injured!"

Just as Ye Xuan was thinking, a cry for help suddenly came from outside.

"Trouble! Something's happened!" Huang Feihong heard the cry for help first, his face turned serious, and he quickly rushed out of the pharmacy.

Seeing Huang Feihong leave, and hearing the cries for help, Ye Xuan immediately knew what had happened and quickly followed Huang Feihong out.

When Ye Xuan reached the treatment room in the front hall, he saw that it was already surrounded by people. He squeezed through the crowd and saw Huang Feihong, Ling Yunke, Ya Cha Su, and several apprentices gathered around a bed, where a patient was lying.

"Master, Uncle Jiu was injured by a foreign gun. We need to remove the bullet quickly, or Uncle Jiu will be in danger." Ling Yunke, standing beside Huang Feihong, looked at Uncle Jiu, who was clutching his stomach in pain, blood seeping through his fingers, and said anxiously.

"Foreign gun?" Hearing Ling Yunke's words, Huang Feihong was taken aback. He was skilled in treating bruises and fractures, but this was his first time dealing with a foreign gun injury.

"Master, let me do it. I performed this kind of surgery when I was abroad." Seeing Huang Feihong's hesitation, Ye Xuan quickly stepped forward and volunteered.

"Oh, Ah Xuan, you treated this kind of injury in America?" Hearing Ye Xuan's words, Huang Feihong remembered that his disciple had studied medicine abroad and was likely more familiar with foreign gun injuries.

"Yes, Master. The most dangerous thing for someone injured by a foreign gun is not the bullet remaining in the body, but the shock wave from the bullet that can damage the arteries and organs. Of course, the bullet remaining in the body can also compress nerves and easily cause infection..." Ye Xuan explained the dangers of gun injuries to Huang Feihong, drawing on the basic medical knowledge he had learned from the system.

"Alright, let Ah Xuan treat him. Hurry up!" Hearing Ye Xuan's confident and detailed explanation, Huang Feihong nodded firmly.
