Chapter 408: Tonic

The herbs prescribed by this eldest young master are all very bitter and unpleasant, and if you pour ten bowls a day, your stomach will definitely not be too comfortable.

However, Zhu Hong has always been the most able to endure hardships, and he never complained, and immediately replied: "Yes, obey orders." ”

Hua Bushi nodded with satisfaction, and after a few words about martial arts practice with Zhu Hong, he came out of the house and walked to the front hall of the Vedic Tower.

Sitting down at the table, the eldest young master picked up a pen, ink, paper, and paper, brushed a little bit, and quickly wrote down a few prescriptions, and called a few men from the Vedic Tower, handed them the prescriptions, and ordered them to go to the tent to get the silver taels, and go to the drugstore on the street to get the medicine according to the prescription.

asked Zhu Hong to drink ten bowls of decoction every day, not because Hua Bushi wanted to rectify people when he had nothing to do, but because when he was checking Zhu Hong's pulse before, he had already found out that although the young man's internal strength broke through the bottleneck and advanced by leaps and bounds, his body's qi and blood were extremely deficient.

The cultivation of one's internal strength requires a long period of practice to make slow progress, and the true qi circulating in the meridians cannot be obtained overnight in a short period of time.

Although Hua Bushi did not know the principle, he judged that it was the magical ability of the "Shaking Yue Heart Method", and repaired the injured meridians, so that the damage healed at the same time, and also opened up these key points.

As far as the practice of internal strength is concerned, it can be regarded as a great achievement if it can open up many important points of the two veins of Ren Du, and if the true qi can penetrate the eight veins of the Qi meridians of the whole body and reach the state of endless life.

Zhu Hong's thirty-six key points have been penetrated, and the situation of the meridians everywhere is like the original fine ditch and small ditch, which suddenly widened into the Yangtze River, although the internal force flows in it without hindrance, but the existing true qi in the body is too little.

If the river is too wide and the flow is too small, the result is very likely to dry up. And the true qi of a person who practices martial arts does not come out of thin air, but is gradually cultivated in years of cultivation. The meridians in Zhu Hong's body are unimpeded, and nourishing true qi will naturally be much faster than that of ordinary practitioners, but the consumption is also several times that of the original, which is the reason why the qi and blood in his body are so deficient now.

As the saying goes, fortune and misfortune depend on each other, although Zhu Hong got a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and his internal strength cultivation has made great progress, but if he doesn't deal with it properly, such an unreasonable rash advance will quickly consume the qi and blood in his body, and it is not impossible for people to die.

Fortunately, Zhu Hong still has Hua Bushi, a master who is proficient in medical science, and since he already knows this danger, of course he will not let the death of his qi and blood run out of energy and blood happen to Zhu Hong.

Hua Bushi prescribed several prescriptions, all of which are great tonic prescriptions, including ginseng, Ganoderma lucidum, deer antler velvet and other precious medicinal materials, to buy these medicinal materials, of course, the cost is a lot, I am afraid that each pair of medicines must use more than 100 taels of silver.

Zhu Hong still has to recuperate for more than 20 days before his injuries can be fully healed, and in this way, the cost of buying medicine will cost tens of thousands of silver taels. Fortunately, in the past few months, Bark Tianlou has earned a lot of money, so he can barely afford it, if Hua Bushi and his party had just come to Okura City, when Bark Tianlou had just opened, even if they smashed the pot and sold iron, I am afraid there was no way.

On the other hand, it is precisely because the people of Okura Castle are rich in people, and it is a place where large merchants from all over the world gather, and the materials are very rich, so there are many rare tonic medicinal materials sold here.

The palm poison that invaded the meridians, Hua Bushi, who was proficient in medical skills, the success of taking the risk of pulling out the poison, a large amount of silver taels, and the Okura Castle where he could buy precious medicinal materials, I don't know if God had the intention to create a supreme master, or Zhu Hong's own Hongfu Qitian, these many conditions are indispensable, but the truth is really not lacking.

The so-called serendipitous thing, I'm afraid nothing more than this.

In the next few days, Hua Bushi came to Zhu Hong's room several times a day, modified the prescription at any time according to the changes in the situation in his body, and cooked herbs for him by himself.

Two days later, the fifth round of the Zixiao Conference was held as scheduled, the ** master and Baoliang's luck was good, the opponents were not strong, and the little couple won without much effort. And with the elimination of some fighting dogs, the odds of the casino bet have also changed, and now Baoliang's odds are buy two to three, and the princess has become buy one to two.

In the fifth round, the last dog king Xia Luo Raccoon encountered some trouble, and its opponent was the "easy pass" Huya. Huya's Zixiao ranked forty-fourth last year, which is definitely not strong in the eyes of many people, but it is not easy to win this battle, the two fighting dogs fought each other for more than half an hour, and the last dog king relied on the advantage of physical strength to barely win.

Huya was the first fighting dog to be sent to Bark Tianlou for training, and if it weren't for Yi Nan, the young owner of "Easy Pass", who came out to vouch for Hua Bushi and take care of business, Bark Tianlou probably wouldn't have been able to open at all. In this battle between Huya and Xialuo, Hua Bushi should have gone to watch, but unfortunately he couldn't get away because he had to take care of Zhu Hong.

Although Huya lost to Xialuo Raccoon, but in the fifth round, it has been able to enter the top 16 of Zixiao's rankings, an increase of more than 20 places from last year.

The father and son of the Yi family celebrated with a large banquet at home, and sent someone to invite Hua Bushi to the banquet, but the eldest young master still wanted to stay in the Bark Sky Tower to prescribe medicine for Zhu Hong and could not go, so he had to politely decline. The Yi family was helpless, so they sent a generous gift to show their gratitude, and after Hua Bushi accepted it, he also ordered someone to prepare a gift in return.

After a few more days, Zhu Hong continued to replenish a large number of rare medicinal materials, and the condition of qi and blood deficiency in his body finally improved, and he was no longer as worried about his life as he was at the beginning.

In just a few days, the various tonic medicines that Zhu Hong ate were worth 10,000 taels of silver. These expenses, Hua Bushi naturally wouldn't talk about them to him. If this young man from a poor peasant family, who was reluctant to spend even a few dozen taels of silver every month, knew the value of every mouthful of medicine he ate, he would definitely be so shocked that he would not be able to swallow even a mouthful of the potion.

These days, in addition to prescribing Zhu Hong's pulse every day, Hua Bushi has done many things about dispensing and boiling medicines himself, just because the dosage of some big tonic drugs and the heat of boiling are particular, and there is no room for mistakes, only this young master can rest assured.

Seeing that Zhu Hong's condition was stable, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. In order to take care of Zhu Hong, Hua Bushi also found a helper, Xiao Xinwang, the son of Xin Lijia, an indigenous fisherman from the "Moli Village" of the Baba people.

Xin Wang has been in Okura Castle for more than three months, and has been helping with some chores in the Barking Sky Tower. The little native had inherited the hard-working, hard-working, intelligent, and likable nature of his parents, Xinlika and Gigi.

When he first came to the Bar Sky Tower, Xiao Xinwang still seemed a little shy, and he only knew how to work but did not speak. But it didn't take long for him to get acquainted with all the guys in the building, and now Xin Wang has learned hundreds of Chinese words, and there is no problem with ordinary people in simple verbal communication.

Hua Bushi asked Xiao Xinwang to help take care of Zhu Hong, because he also took a fancy to this child, who was down-to-earth and never spared any effort, and some trivial things were handed over to him to do for the sake of reassuring.

In the blink of an eye, the sixth round of the Zixiao Conference is about to start, and this round is already the top eight fighting dog battles, among which several powerful beasts such as the Sara Raccoon, the Black Python, the Red Fire, and the Bordeaux are among them.

Gamblers of all sizes in Okura Castle are betting frantically, which can be described as unprecedented, and the thresholds of various casinos are about to be flattened.

This year's Zixiao Conference is much more exciting than before, not only Bordeaux, a super dark horse, but also Baoliang and the princess have also sprung up, and the original biggest favorite Xia Luo Raccoon is struggling to win a low-ranking fighting dog like Huya, and it seems that the state is not very good.

The more uncertain the outcome, the more it can arouse the interest of gamblers to bet, and because many bulldogs have the possibility of competing for the championship, the probability of winning big money by betting small bets will increase, and the corresponding risk will of course be multiplied. However, the vast majority of gamblers only think about winning money and making a fortune, and a few people will consider things that are too risky.

The day before the sixth round of the battle, Sima Rulan came to Hua Bushi's room in the backyard, but she came to say goodbye to the eldest young master.

The eldest lady of the "Wanjintang" lived in the Vedic Tower for more than three months, but at this time, she said that the affairs in the "Wanjintang" were busy, and it was inconvenient to live here to handle official business, so she had to return to the city lord's mansion.

Although Hua Bushi felt a little surprised, he couldn't stop people from leaving, so he had to thank the eldest lady for her help and protection in the past few months.

Sima Rulan's beautiful eyes wandered, staring at the eyes of the eldest young master, and suddenly asked, "I'm leaving now, will Mr. Hua feel reluctant, will he miss Lan'er in the future?"

This sentence was asked very straightforwardly and boldly, although Hua Bushi was thick-skinned, he couldn't help but be a little red-faced, and after a while, he replied: "The city lord and the eldest lady are leaving, of course Hua Bushi is reluctant, he has the intention to stay, but he is afraid of delaying the major events in the eldest lady's sect, and he is afraid of causing misunderstanding among others, so he is really helpless." ”

Sima Rulan smiled and said, "If you really have the heart to keep me, just open your mouth, and I may listen to you and stay." ”

Hua Bushi had already settled down at this time, coughed lightly, and replied: "Since Miss City Lord said that there is something to do, Xiao Ke can't keep it, and when the eldest lady deals with the affairs of the sect, if he wants to come to the Bar Sky Tower again in the future, Hua Bushi will definitely sweep the couch to greet him." ”
