Chapter 50: The Garden Controversy (Part II)

The small garden of the Baron's Palace.

The air suddenly fell into a deathly silence.

On the side of the Rain Pavilion, Lawson held a crystal clear glass bottle in his hand, and in less than a fifth of the bottle, it contained a mass of white powder similar to flour.

Just looking at the appearance, the powder seems to be unremarkable.

But Baron Draco's eyes were fixed on the glass bottle without blinking, and his cheeks were flushed as if he were drunk, and the muscles on his bearded cheeks twitched. This appearance is like an ignorant young man who is about to confess to the goddess in his heart, desperately longing to be able to smile at the Pomeranian, but he is deeply afraid of being rejected by the goddess.

Magician Dias. Romley's reaction was the other extreme, and after roaring, his eyes were glued to the glass medicine bottle, and he involuntarily murmured, "No, it's impossible." ”

He had reason to be suspicious.

In the north, rosemacula abused the upper class, countless nobles and wealthy businessmen contracted the disease, and the nobles who were in a desperate situation offered sky-high rewards in order to survive, seeking a cure for rosemacus.

Countless pharmacists, alchemists, and magicians have invested in it, and have spent countless energy and financial resources to find all kinds of strange solutions, but until now, no reliable guy has publicly declared himself successful.

There are a lot of scammers who make a fortune out of it.

Now, such a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy, who is only the age of an alchemy apprentice, dares to say that he has conquered the Grim Reaper, the Rosacea!

How ignorant!

He was 100% sure that the medicine must be fake!

Thinking so, he said loudly, "Lord Lord, he must be lying to you!" ”

"Why? Although Rosen is young, he has real skills, at least in the magic mirror. The baron asked, his eyes fixed on the glass vial.

"Because so far, there is no safe and reliable treatment for rosacea. Lord Fred, the master apothecary of Nilogaard College, has studied rosemacula for 23 years and has cured 8 patients. He himself said that rosacea was a curse of the gods, and that unless the gods forgave the sins of this mortal, this mortal could never be cured! ”

The baron was suddenly shaken: "Ah, Master Fred really said that? ”

"That's what you say!" Dias nodded firmly.

Fred. Ben, the master of medicine, the master of alchemy, and the master of number theory, together with the sage Niya and the thunderbolt messenger Max, is known as the Three Sages of Nilogaard, and his reputation has spread throughout the continent and is considered to be the embodiment of wisdom.

Every word he said was held up as a guideline and an unquestionable authority.

After Dias moved out of Fred's words, the balance in the baron's heart suddenly tilted towards him, but there was still a trace of unwillingness in his heart after all: "However, Rosen said that his medicine worked on Mary and little Alice......"

"Fake!" Dias denied it without doubt: "This guy is just an alchemy apprentice, he can use his alchemy power to temporarily suppress the symptoms of rosacea, but the disease has been deeply rooted in the patient's body, and it seems to be healed on the surface, but the internal organs are still invaded by the disease, and it is inevitable to die after all." ”

The baron looked puzzled, he turned his head to look at Rosen, and asked, "Rosen, is this really the case?" ”

Rosen sighed in his heart, human beings are social animals, and they instinctively trust the strong and experts. In the face of authority, it is always easy to choose to believe. In other areas, this survival strategy can be right, and it can protect itself to the greatest extent.

But in the field of science, any mortal authority is illusory, and if there is an authority, there is only one, and that is the truth determined by experiment.

It is a pity that in the age of obscurantism...... No, even in the scientific prosperity of the earth, there are few people who uphold such a scientific spirit, and ordinary people are always easily blinded by authoritative remarks.

He turned his head to look at Baron Draco, his gaze as calm as water: "Uncle, Master Fred is also a mortal, and mortals make mistakes. You can not take my word for it, but you should trust your eyes. Before making a final conclusion, I think you should see for yourself what happened to Mary and Little Alice, right? ”

Dias immediately spoke to stop him: "Your lord, you can't do this. Mary not only has a rosemaculate, but also a plague, in case it infects you......."

The word plague is very powerful.

Baron Draco's brow furrowed slightly, a hint of retreat appeared on his face, and he groaned for a while, but he still had difficulty making a decision.

When he hesitated, he suddenly saw Rosen out of the corner of his eye.

The boy didn't speak, he held his head up, his expression calm, his eyes shining with confidence.

Baron Draco's heart twitched, and he glanced at Dias again.

Dias didn't notice the baron's gaze, his eyes were fixed on Rosen, and there was a hint of hideousness on his face.

Don't look at Baron Draco's five big and three thick, but he is thick and fine, he has been a lord for many years, he has seen far more than ordinary people, especially in terms of looking at people, he is very skilled.

'Hmm~ Dias seems to have a very deep prejudice against Rosen, and this guy has panicked about me before! As for Rosen...... Judging from the magic mirror, he is very reliable and has real skills......

Comparing the two, the balance in the baron's heart was once again tilted in favor of Rosen, and he said to Rosen, "Can you guarantee safety?" ”

Rosen nodded and smiled: "If there is a plague in the town because of Mother Mary's mother, uncle, you can cut off my head first!" ”

"What a guts!" The baron praised him, he was named a baron because he had established military merits on the battlefield, and on the battlefield, he admired those brave comrades-in-arms the most.

He continued, "I'll send someone with you to bring them here!" ”

Dias immediately shouted: "Lord Lord, you can't ......"

Baron Draco waved his hand heavily: "I've made a decision, everyone shut up!" ”

Dias was silent, his face cloudy.

Rosen breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, knowing that things had come to this point, and Dias could no longer make waves, he bowed to the baron and said, "My lord, they are in the cellar in the courtyard of my house. The stalker who saved me is nearby, and I can ask her to bring people over. ”

"Yes, you can." The baron nodded.

Rosen walked out of the courtyard quickly, beckoned to Anne who was hiding in the shadows, and when Anne came, he quickly recounted what had happened, and at the end he said, "Go and come back quickly." ”

"Okay."

Anne nodded, and ran wildly in the direction of the courtyard, while Lawson turned back to the garden.

After about 15 minutes, Anne drove a black carriage into the courtyard of the Baron's Palace, and after entering the courtyard, the carriage continued to drive all the way to the small garden, until the entrance of the small garden, the carriage turned sideways, and the side door was right opposite the entrance of the small garden.

'Bang Dang~'

The carriage door opened.

Baron Draco and Dias turned their heads in unison, their eyes fixed on the carriage door.

After about ten seconds of waiting, a woman in a wide linen cloak stepped out of the carriage, and then, she turned around and picked up a little girl out of the carriage.

The little girl has a yellow and thin face, and her body is wrapped in thick clothes, but her face is exposed, and it can be clearly seen that the little girl has many spots on her face, which are similar to rose spots in shape, but the color is not the bright red of rose rash, but light brown.

As soon as he saw the little girl's appearance, Dias couldn't help but shake his head: "No~no~ This is fake, this is definitely not Mary's daughter!" ”

Baron Draco's eyes lit up with a strange light, and from the shape of the scar, he could tell that the little girl must have had rosacea before.

"She's getting better!" Baron Draco couldn't help but speak.

After hesitating for a few seconds, he strode up to Sister Mary, raised his hand, and removed the hat of his cloak, revealing Mary's dark brown scab.

"Ah~~"

The baron, though prepared, took a step back in fright, and then, holding back his nausea, carefully looked at the bloody scab on Mary's face.

There are a lot of blood scabs, which look very ugly, but around the blood scabs, new flesh has faintly grown, and there are many scars around the abscesses, but the color of the patches is also dark brown, and it can be clearly seen that it is fading.

Seeing this, the baron had a strong hope in his heart, and he asked, "Marie, let me ask you, how did Rosen treat you?" ”

Mary turned her head to look at Rosen, who smiled and nodded.

Mary said, "Sir, Lord Rosen took me away from Caopo Village and said that he would treat us. Shortly after arriving in town, he beat a kind of water with a crystal-like substance...... Hit into my flesh. After half a day, I felt better. ”

The baron was somewhat puzzled: "Water? Hit into the meat? ”

Dias thought he had caught a flaw, and immediately said: "Look, Rosen is lying, what he took out was obviously white powder, but what he really used was another potion!" ”

"Lawson?"

Rosen smiled: "Uncle, when this medicine is used, it is dissolved in water, so it looks the same as water." Hit directly into the meat to improve the efficacy...... This is a unique treatment. ”

"Doesn't that hurt?" The baron's cheeks twitched.

Rosen shrugged his shoulders: "It's a little painful, but it doesn't affect the movement, and it will recover soon." ”

The baron's eyes lit up, his gaze moving back and forth between Mary and little Alice. Eventually, he looked at Rosen and rolled up his sleeves, revealing more than a dozen red spots on his thick body hairy arms.

"Little one, I believe in you. Give me your medicine to try! ”

As soon as Dias heard this, he immediately rushed up with an arrow and blocked in front of the baron: "Lord Lord, he is a liar, you can't ......"

"Shut up!" Baron Draco's face suddenly became extremely gloomy, and his eyes flashed with a cold murderous intent: "Dias, you always like to think of others as fools, right?" ”

"Your Excellency?" Dias's face turned pale and he took a step back.

The baron gritted his teeth, a hideous smile appeared on his face, and words burst out from between his teeth: "Hehehe~ Today, I, an idiot, will teach you a good lesson!" Guardsman! ”

As soon as these words came out, Dias's face changed drastically, and he retreated again and again, until he reached the edge of the rain pavilion: "Draco, are you sure you want to do this?" ”

At this moment, Rosen suddenly felt some abnormal changes in the air around Dias, many oxygen and carbon dioxide molecules converged abnormally towards Dias, while some water and nitrogen molecules radiated out in the opposite direction, as if they were repelled by magnetic field lines.

'Oh no, high potential difference, air is ionized, this guy jumps off the wall! ’
