90009327 Chapter 666: The Pharmacist’s Will
"Sanchi, Sanchi!"
Young Sanchi walks among the fields. On his back is a large basket woven from a very tough ivy that has been dried and woven. This is a tool that pharmacists must use to collect medicine.
The pharmacist shakes the fresh herbs he collected and throws them into the basket behind him. This is a very cool thing in the eyes of others. If the pharmacist is quick and agile, he can do it in just half a day. A basket half the size of a man is full.
Now, Sanchi is returning home with a full load. His face is filled with the refreshing smile that is unique to young people, full of sunshine and energy, and daring to challenge everything.
To outsiders, Sanchi is happy. He has a very handsome face, which can make those beautiful girls stop, secretly point at Sangji passing by, giggle, and joke with each other, and then a red cloud appears on Bai Zhe's face.
Even more fortunately, Sanji has considerable talent, and his talent as a pharmacist is even more impressive. The camp was also very famous, and in the end, he made an exception and was accepted as a student by an old pharmacist who was recognized as an outstanding pharmacist in the camp. You must know that this old pharmacist had a very weird temper, which made him fall in love with Sanji's title of genius pharmacist. Immediately it spread from countless civilian bars and restaurants.
Although the pharmacist is not as powerful as the adventurer, as profitable, nor as mysterious as the mage, who seems to be omnipotent, the pharmacist's career is stable, unlike the adventurer, who risks his life, and he is not as weird as the mage. . Being shrouded in the black mage robe all day long made people feel scared from the bottom of their hearts.
Even if he is a third-rate pharmacist, at least he will not have to worry about life problems, so Sangji's future is bright.
However, this mysterious Sanchi is the happiest. The most enviable thing is that he already has a young, beautiful and one-of-a-kind wife, and his beautiful wife already has a child. After this autumn, Sanji will be able to become a great father.
So at this moment, Sanji, in the eyes of others, is simply living a life of gold. From the moment he learned the news of his wife's pregnancy last winter, all the expressions on his face have been replaced by a smile.
"Sanchi, Sanchi."
The person who stopped him was a skinny old man. Wearing a simple pharmacist's robe and having sharp eyes, he gives people a very harsh and stern look.
He is Sanji's teacher, the old pharmacist who is recognized by the whole camp as outstanding and also has a weird temper.
I haven't seen you for a few days. Where did you go to collect medicine? "The old pharmacist asked in an old and cold voice.
"Teacher, I went a little deeper."
The cold voice of the old pharmacist did not freeze the smile on Sanji's face. He bowed respectfully and responded like this.
Only a few people know that the old pharmacist is actually a good and quite ordinary old man, if you can ignore his too indifferent attitude. There are also those weird and bizarre treatment fees proposed.
.
"Xia is about to give birth. She is weak. Can you leave like this for a few days?" The old pharmacist frowned and looked at Sanji displeased.
Sanji always loved his wife very much, but this time, in the eyes of the old pharmacist, he was biased.
Feeling the old pharmacist's care in his indifference and reproach, Sanji smiled slightly and swung the basket behind him toward the old pharmacist.
"Teacher, smell it and see."
"Um?"
The old pharmacist followed the instructions and slightly twitched his nose, and then began to murmur one by one.
"There is Ukra Ukra, Samponum. Katyuzi"
Even Sanji, who had been with the old pharmacist for several years, showed a deeply shocked expression. He was able to carry the herbs in the basket on his back in an instant just by smelling the residual smell of herbs in the air from a few meters away. Once identified.
At least, he has never seen other pharmacists with this ability. It seems that his teacher is not only an outstanding pharmacist in the camp, Wu Xu may be the best pharmacist in the entire camp, or even in the entire second world.
"So that's it, I ran so far. It's hard work, but it's best to take care of Shia's emotions. Having you by her side is more effective than any medicine."
When the old pharmacist identified the last herb in Jisang's shocked expression, he left without looking back, leaving only his still indifferent and old voice in the air.
These herbs are all mild and moisturizing tonics. After drying, it would be perfect to use them to help Shia through the weak postpartum period after she gives birth. More than ten of them are very precious. It is an herb that can only be collected by going deep into the dangerous forest. It is no wonder that Jisang, who usually leaves early in the morning and comes back at night, has to spend several days collecting it.
Silently bowing to the teacher's leaving figure, Sanji turned around, a little faster than Zhi Wangwang. He couldn't wait to see Shia.
Two months later, Shia gave birth to a healthy boy for Sanchi.
"Xia, what do you think the child should be called? Let's call him Ales. In the legend, he held up the magic bow and shot the evil black dragon through the head. What do you think, our child? He will definitely be a hero in the future.
Sanji held the baby in his arms and said in a choked voice to Shia, who had a beautiful face and a quiet and gentle temperament, lying on the hospital bed.
Her face was pale. Just like snow, his breathing was extremely weak and seemed to disappear at any time.
Shia's physique is already very weak. At that time, we really shouldn't be too arrogant and believe Shia's words too much and give birth to the child. If anything happens to Shia, then"
"Sanchi"
Shia's pale lips trembled, her thin little hand raised with great effort, and she gently placed it on Sanji's hand.
.
"Just call him Gilleb. How about, Liebu" is the slang in our hometown, which means "pharmacist". I hope our children will be as outstanding as his father when they grow up. "Yin·Xiao·Dang"'s "House" Advertisement "Okay" Okay, I'll listen to you. Please, Shia, don't abandon me or our children. "
Feeling Shia's increasingly weak breath, Sanchi has been living in a happy infancy. Sanchi has never known what tears are. Tears of sadness, regret, pain, and helplessness keep falling from his face. The sleeping baby, who was awakened by tears, burst out crying and shouting, which seemed to carry a strong reluctance and calling for the mother.
The nourishing herbs that Sanji risked his life to collect in the past few months were finally not in vain. He finally saved Shia's life in the moment of life and death. However, Shia became even weaker than before. He was so weak that he even lost the strength to walk out of the hospital bed.
Shia 1, who had saved his life, put a smile on Sanji's face again. Although Shia's physique is weaker than before. But at least he is still alive. Maybe with Sanji, the future great pharmacist, taking care of him, he might be able to live longer than ordinary people.
In the eyes of outsiders, the biggest crisis for the Sanchi family has finally been overcome, and there will be beautiful and happy days in the future.
Sanji was still obsessed with medical skills and spent almost all of his time outside of taking care of his wife and son on studying pharmacology. His painstaking efforts and hard work were also praised in the camp. Almost everyone was certain that Sanji would have a good future. Will become a great medicine man.
The change happened when Gilleb was four years old. I don’t know what kind of miracle it was. Unexpectedly, the herb seeds from deep in the forest, the most smelly and useless herb seeds, floated to Rogge's camp and took root near Sangji's house.
In the spring of the next year, Sangji tidied up and cultivated two medicinal fields where the herbs took root. After the spring, young shoots grew in the soil, and Sangji's behavior became strange to outsiders.
He devoted almost all his energy to these two medicinal fields, and the herbs growing on the medicinal fields were Tekunupu and Kapu Mau, which were recognized by pharmacists as the most difficult to collect and the most useless.
When the old pharmacist asked him why, he smiled and replied: "There are no useless herbs in this world, but they have not been discovered yet. I believe they must have their own uniqueness."
"and
After a pause, Sanji knelt down, gently caressed the herbs with newly unfolded leaves, and continued: "Furthermore, these cute little guys have traveled thousands of miles from the depths of the forest and spent a long and arduous journey to come here. Come here. Teacher, don’t you think this is a miracle? I think this is a miracle and a kind of fate. So, I don’t want to give up.”
After getting the answer, the old pharmacist shook his head helplessly. Just like the teacher, the students would be the same. It was enough that he had a weird temper. Even Sanji seemed to be infected.
After that, the old pharmacist did not stop Sanji, but just advised him that if he has been researching for a period of time without any results, he might as well put it down first. Continue to study, and when you have accumulated more knowledge and experience, you may be able to get twice the result with half the effort by looking back.
Sangji also readily agreed.
However, this became the only decision that the old pharmacist regretted in his life.
Since then, Sanji's research on these two herbal medicines has become more and more persistent, almost to the point of addiction. Even the old pharmacist cannot dissuade him.
Those who are jealous of Sanchi. He began to spread rumors and laugh at Sanji's stupidity and arrogance. In the past, Sanji was so happy and dazzling that many people hated him. Suddenly, the reputation of the camp's genius pharmacist became famous. It can become dangerous.
But Sanji was still immersed in his two small medicine fields and ignored the rumors outside.
"Dad, mommy started coughing again."
Five-year-old little Gilleb has begun to understand. In his eyes, his father is an admirable person who seems to know everything. And taught myself a lot of pharmaceutical knowledge.
Little Gilleb. Like most children, he has the same longing and admiration for his father. He will always use a childish voice to argue and fight against the rumors outside and his father who is often laughed at by other children.
The only thing that made him dissatisfied was that his father seemed to dislike his mother, whom he also loved deeply, and stayed in the medicine field almost all day long.
Little Gilleb, my lovely son. "
Sanchi is taking care of the medicine field. He turned back and touched Gilleb's little head affectionately.
"Look, these delicate little guys need to be watered later. If it's a moment late, Li Xuan might die. You don't want to see these cute little things die, so
Smiling and patting Gilleb's young shoulder, Sanji said: "Just like I taught you before, boil the prepared herbs for your mother to drink, okay? This is a great thing. Seeing Gilleb So capable. Mom will be very happy too."
Little Gilleb nodded. He left quickly. Although he was very happy that he could take on such an important responsibility, his young and expressive mind was indeed very happy, but Gilleb had already understood a lot of things. He knew that his mother would be happy with his performance. I will also be hurt by my father's indifference.
Two years later,
"Dad, mommy fainted."
Seven-year-old Gilleb, already half an adult, rushed into the research cabin his father had specially built near the medicine field and said loudly.
"Gileb, didn't I tell you before that you can't disturb a pharmacist's work? Even a slight shake of your hand will cause the research to fail immediately. If the medicine is given to the patient, if it is too small, it may also cause the patient to be ill. Die!!”
Sanchi didn't look back and focused on the more than ten herbs on the long table. His right hand, which was holding only a handful of minced herbs, was trembling slightly. His eyes were red and he reprimanded Gilleb in a low voice.
"But mom, she
"How many times do you want me to teach you?! Just boil the prepared potion." Sanji interrupted ruthlessly, and his scolding voice became louder.
"Yes, it is. I see. "
Gilleb clenched his fists tightly and said through gritted teeth. At the age of seven, he didn't dare to resist his father, but he already understood a lot.
The admiration I had for my father when I was young gradually turned into hatred, especially when I saw my mother coughing and unconscious in pain on the hospital bed, muttering his father's name.
He hated those despicable third-rate pharmacists outside. They were so incompetent that they were jealous of his father's talent and tried every possible means to create rumors and ridicule his father to satisfy their humble self-esteem. If it weren't for them, his father wouldn't have become so weird now. , so irritable.
From a genius praised by everyone, to a foolish and arrogant fool, this huge gap, even for the young Gilleb. It seems that he also sensed his father's inner unwillingness.
As a result, his poor and respectable mother was the real victim of this rumor.
The next year, Shia finally died of a long illness and left Gilleb behind. Sangji was still in Shia's small room during his final moments. I couldn't catch up with him for the last time. On the day after Shia's death, Sanji chose the most cowardly escape and committed suicide in his small house.
"Poor mother, in her last reply before death, she still kept saying good things for that guy. I...I...wuwu
Halfway through the story of the old pharmacist. Gilleb was already crying, his eyes filled with hatred.
"I originally thought that you would destroy those two medicinal fields, and even if you ignore them, they would gradually become deserted. Unexpectedly, you have continued to take care of them."
Lao Yaobei looked at Gilleb with burning eyes and said.
"I" I'm just "the only one" who learned how to take care of these junk things from that guy, just to pass the time. "
Gilleb avoided the old medicine man's eyes. He said with a trembling voice.
"Wrong!! Gilleb, why do you want to deceive yourself? Although you hate your father, you do not deny his talent or your enthusiasm for pharmacists to pass the time? Don't tell me, you don't Do you know how much effort you have to put in to support those two medicinal fields?
The old pharmacist's voice became stern in an instant, as if he was going to penetrate Gilleb's heart directly, and every sentence was sonorous.
"No, no, I hate my father, and I hate those two medicine fields. I once swore that I would never become a medicine man. It was you guys who killed my mother and forced my father to death!!"
After a brief period of confusion, Gilleb became excited and yelled this.
"I,, I will destroy those two medicinal fields now."
In excitement, Gilleb turned around and wanted to take action, but I immediately grabbed the clothes from behind.
Just kidding, if the medicine field is destroyed. Where can I find medicine? From what the old pharmacist said, it seems that it is very difficult to feed these two kinds of herbs. It requires a lot of effort. Not everyone can do it. I still hope that Gilleb can do it. Work for me.
"Gileb, listen to me." After a pause, the old pharmacist seemed to feel much calmer.
"Face yourself, don't deceive yourself anymore. The reason why you have spent so much hard work to maintain these two medicinal fields is because you still have admiration for your father in your heart, and there is still a huge feeling deep in your heart. I am unwilling to give up and hope that one day I can finish what my father has not finished and make all those who have laughed at him regret it."
"So, I ask you for the last time. Gilleb, listen to me, don't regret it for the rest of your life because of a moment of grudge!" The old pharmacist stared at the other person closely and said word by word.
"Are you willing to inherit your father's unfinished business and become my student?!"
After being quiet for a long time, Gilleb turned back and looked at the old pharmacist calmly.
"Maybe you are right, but I have already sworn not to become a pharmacist. Maybe deep down in my heart I still hope to inherit my father's unfinished research, but I can't bear the pain my mother felt before she died. I can't I have suffered those sad memories, please forgive me for being a coward and unable to agree to you."
After finishing speaking, Gilleb knelt down. After giving the old pharmacist three heavy kowtows, he knew that the reason why he had been able to be a local snake peacefully without suffering any grievances all these years was because the old pharmacist was secretly protecting him. "
Seeing the serious look in Gilleb's eyes, the old pharmacist let out a long sigh. Perhaps he had also let out such a long sigh when Sanchi died.
"Although I can't inherit my father's research. However, you are right. In my heart, I still hope that one day, someone will be able to complete my father's research and rectify his name, so that all those who have laughed at him will lose face! Face! Scan! land!"
At the end of the sentence, Gilleb gritted his teeth and burst out word after word, biting his lips, which showed the hatred in Ran's heart. It has not decreased much in the past ten years or so.
.
After saying this, he took off his coat and gently took out a yellowed scroll from his flesh lining. It was stained with a lot of blood. It looked like it had a long history, but it was well kept. There was no A little wrinkled and incomplete.
"This scroll was still held tightly in my father's hand after he committed suicide. I have never opened it, but I guess it must be the one he has been studying." As he spoke, Gilleb revealed an unknown expression. Is it a mockery or a sad smile, and then handed it over. Yin·Xiao·Dang's "house" advertisement failed. The old pharmacist did not follow up: "Don't you think that even if you do not intend to inherit your father's research, this scroll should be created by your own son?" Is it better to open it?
After being stunned for a moment, Gilleb obeyed the old pharmacist's instructions. With his hands trembling slightly, he unfolded the scroll and read it carefully.
Suddenly, huge tears poured out of his dull pupils.
I stood next to him, stretched my head slightly, and saw the content.
"I have been suppressing Shia's condition. I originally thought I could live a stable life like this." Unexpectedly, after giving birth, "it actually broke out." I couldn't suppress it anymore.
This disease "has certain similarities with congenital heart disease." When I saw Tekunupu and Kapmau "taking root near my home," I thought this was a hint from God. I must save Shia.
"I don't want Gilleb to know that my mother is terminally ill, and I don't want Shia to know about her condition." Maybe I should hide it all, by the way, let's do it. Develop the antidote as soon as possible and... During this period, I left Shia in the cold...but Gilleb is very well-behaved and capable...I feel much more at ease..."
Why, "Why, little, why,, why,, it's obviously still a little bit close,, just a bit close." Shia's time is running out, I must "as soon as possible,"
Those guys "Forget it, little, now is not the time for these bastards to care about" "I have to hurry up as soon as possible, damn it", damn it "blood stains"
The antidote was finally developed, but unfortunately "Shia left yesterday" I'm such a damn guy, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry,
At the bottom, there is a list of herbal formulas stained with dark red blood. The name of the medicine is Gillette.
