"That brother is really an idiot. Even if he comes from the attic, let me tell you, so much money, just throw it out like this? It is obvious that Su Xuan is in a losing situation, and... and he is not ready yet. .”
This man originally wanted to say something that everyone knew well, but before he could speak, he was frightened back by Doctor Bai's look.
But how could these people know what Su Xuan was really thinking? Before Su Xuan could wait for all the moisture in the medicinal materials in the cauldron to be stripped away, he directly put out the cauldron, picked up the wooden spoon next to it, and poured spoonfuls into his mouth. Enter, everyone present was dumbfounded. What kind of novel operation is this?
In the attic of the Palace of Rejuvenation, a guard in heavy silver armor leaned on the wooden railing with one hand. The only leaky spot in the armor was his eyes, and it was those sharp eagle eyes, like those of an eagle hunting in the sky, staring at it. Su Xuan's movements revealed a strong interest.
He was leaning against the wooden railing casually next to him, even chewing something in his mouth. He didn't look like the second-in-command of the Imperial Medical Office at all, but more like an ordinary villager in the village.
"After so many years of examinations at the Palace of Rejuvenation, this is the first time I have seen an imperial physician that you can like." The ancient doctor patted the other party's shoulder with one hand, as if to comfort him, but more like to let him get away from reality.
"This Su Xuan and I, Lao Gu, do think it's pretty good, but compared with Su Tianxiang, it's still a bit behind, right?"
The last two words were not about asking about the Silver Armor Trial. The ancient doctor turned around and looked at a door that had never been opened before. The door handle was covered with dust, indicating that the things hidden inside were primitive and that no one had ever seen them. secret.
There was no reply in the room, and the ancient doctor didn't recommend it. He shook his hand angrily and said: "Yes, each of them can pretend better than the other, don't they say anything? Fortunately, I am here to make your boring life more interesting. This link, otherwise you will be bored to death before you can find an antidote."
There was still no response, like a stone dropped into the sea. The ancient doctor's voice never woke me up and opened the door opposite the attic.
"Forget it, you can continue to be bored. I will give you the questions in the third round! This time I will show you what a blast is!"
In the center of the Hall of Rejuvenation, two old men were poisoned to varying degrees, but their bodies did not sway. There were even guards who came to pull open each other's eyes to prevent them from falling asleep. As a result, the two middle-aged men's eyelids didn't even blink. , they are constantly consuming it, they always believe that they have spent all their hard work on the medicine this time.
Half the stick of incense passed, but no one fell down. Su Tian, Su Xuan, and the two middle-aged Chinese doctors who had already drank the antidote did not fall down. Time passed by little by little.
"What's going on? Why haven't the results been announced yet?"
All the doctors in the Palace of Rejuvenation couldn't hold back their joy, especially when they were able to bet correctly on the outside handicap, their smiling faces could be said to be split to the back of their heads.
"Logically speaking, the results must have been read out by now. Half the stick of incense has passed. Those who have reacted have reacted long ago. What's the use of wasting it here now?"
It wasn't that Doctor Bai didn't know the time, it was that he saw Su Xuan, who was still standing firmly, not blushing, not out of breath, could still stand on the stage without falling down. This was the most incredible thing, and a little time had passed. .
The voices under the stage could not be stopped. Outside, at the handicap, the banker was also doing the final counting with a smile. In addition to Bai Yuanshi, there were four medical ministers who were always sitting on the stage, towering and motionless.
"Okay, Ambassador Baiyuan, we can now announce the results."
An old voice came from behind the Baiyuan envoy, which shocked the latter. Bai Yunfei slowly looked back and gave way to his ancient doctor. The positions of the two have now become higher and lower, but Even though Bai Yuanshi was one level higher than the ancient medical chief, he didn't want to cause trouble.
"Gu Yi Cheng! Since you said so, you are the subject of the second round of testing, then I will announce the results."
The ancient doctor nodded, the warm spring breeze on his face remained unchanged.
"Okay, now announce the results!" Dr. Bai was about to walk next to the contestants, and each of them had to measure their carotid artery pulses before the competition could officially begin!
"The one who took the shortest time was Su Tian. Although he was the last person to drink the antidote, his body movements were more honest and he walked elegantly."
"Second! Zhang Wufei and Qu Shangji completed it at the same time. Now the effect of the poison has only begun to have some effect at the end, but absolutely nothing has been touched. Now the two of them have not completely detoxified, but the most basic process has been completed. , so it’s also a victory! Passed the second round smoothly!”
"Third! Su Xuan!" Bai Yunfei almost gritted his teeth and spat out these two words. Now the grievances between Bai Yunfei and Su Xuan are not only about the gold medal. When the handicap is opened, there are gatherings every year. So Every year there are people who act as bookmakers and people who place bets. This year, Bai Yunfei was the dog who lost the bet on Su Xuan, but now he is like a normal person.
"Mr. Su is still lacking in terms of completion. The pharmacology of the medicines is quite consistent, but..." Bai Yunfei, the three people in front of him, followed the usual procedures in the past, but now when they arrived at Su Xuan's place, they began to check everything in detail. There are a lot of toxic substances in the materials on the table.
"The arrangement on the table is not uniform and neat enough." As he said that, Bai Yunfei picked up the crucible Su Xuan used to load the antidote and continued to pick at it.
"Although this antidote has been made, its appearance is far inferior to that of Su Tian and Zhang Wufei. Even if the patient is dying, seeing this puddle of mud-like thing, I'm afraid even hearing it will Can’t smell it.”
"But, overall, the results are good, and Dr. Su Xuan has entered the third round!"
After the words fell, some were happy and some were sad. There were too many people betting on Su Xuan to lose, and not all of those betting on Su Xuan knew the details of Su Xuan, but more of them saw the odds of losing. Really stable, gambler mentality...
Su Xuan had already sounded impatient, but now he was still holding his breath. He looked at Doctor Shi who was standing there without taking a seat. Coupled with Doctor Bai's eager expression, it seemed that someone had taken advantage of him. Su Xuan knew that he was such a gentle old man that he had never seen before.
"Next, everyone will take a short rest and the participating team members will adjust their condition. After one stick of incense, it will be the final round!"
Having said that, Doctor Bai hurried towards the place where the ancient doctor presented his evidence.
"Alright, ancient medicine report, we are waiting for you to decide to do the third subject, or to change?"
Ancient Doctor Cheng waved to Doctor Bai, signaling him to come over quickly.
"Mr. Bai, don't think that I don't know what illegal things you have done in this kind of competition. I hope you will take care of yourself. If you see this kind of thing that insults our signature doctor again, I believe that within the Imperial Medical Office, , there are still many people who can come forward.”
