Lin Yan and others followed Mr. Sun, avoiding some flowers and plants, and came to a courtyard. The whole building is basically made of wood, which seems to be integrated with the environment here, making it appear deep and quiet.
This should be the rumored "Medicine King Valley". Living in a place like this, combined with Mr. Sun's current temperament, really makes him feel like a reclusive master.
However, Lin Yan didn't react for a while. Although Monk Chen made a lot of complaints about Mr. Sun's previous style, thinking that he was a "charlatan" or something like that, Lin Yan was still somewhat accepting of Mr. Miao's alternative style.
After all, a superior person must have the characteristics of a superior person. Why should you care about the eyes of the world? Isn’t it bad for you to do this?
"I still like your unruly look before!"
Lin Yan sighed silently in his heart, and then followed Mr. Sun into the courtyard.
There are only a few small rooms inside. Since there are no outsiders here on weekdays, there is no need to prepare a living room or anything like that. So Mr. Sun took a few small bamboo stools and handed them to a few people, and they took them. Sit down.
It seemed a bit crowded around the small table. Mr. Sun pinched some tea leaves from the house and boiled water. He has just come back and it will take a while for the hot water to make tea.
"Be casual, there are no outsiders here and there are no rules." Old Sun said.
"Mr. Sun, are you the only one here?" Lin Yan asked.
"There is also a young apprentice who is currently collecting herbs. He will probably be back soon," said Mr. Sun.
I have never heard of a successor to the "Grandson of the Medicine King" before, but it is normal to have an apprentice. After all, the Medicine King is not young at all, and he must have a successor with all his abilities. I just don't know who can fall into the Medicine King's discernment, and How much of the essence of Medicine King can you learn?
Anyway, he might see it in a while, but there is no need to make random guesses. The top priority now is his own poison. Lin Yan secretly raised his head and glanced at Mr. Sun, feeling a little uneasy. After all, his situation has become more complicated now!
However, having already arrived at the King of Medicine, it is not enough to hide the disease and avoid medical treatment. Lin Yan thought of this and immediately said: "Mr. Sun, did you receive the medicine that was previously delivered to you through Wanbao Tower?"
Mr. Sun teased: "I received them all, but I didn't realize that you are quite rich!"
When Lin Yan found him before, his appearance was still Mr. Miao's sharp and sexy look. Although he looked quite alternative and cool, from the patient's perspective, he looked completely different. It takes a certain amount of mental endurance to find such a person to treat you. After all, who knows if he will just rub a mud pill from his body and let himself eat it?
Lin Yan was straightforward and neat. He swiped his card whenever he disagreed without blinking an eye. At that time, he gave Mr. Sun a certain shock. He has seen many rich and wealthy people, but even the second generation who are stupid and rich will not give a penny to Mr. Miao, who is dressed in a different way. This kid is actually a bit cute!
In addition, although most of the medicinal materials listed on his list are not extremely precious, it still costs a lot of money to collect them. Considering the losses, at least two copies must be prepared, but Lin Yan is Prepared four copies!
This was not because Lin Yan was really wealthy, but because his life was at stake, he couldn't help but be careless. Moreover, after this, the money he saved before was almost spent, and he became a pauper again.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but remember the small store he opened in Chang'an in partnership with Xu An. He didn't know what the profit was like. He hadn't taken the dividends over the years yet!
Mr. Sun joked and continued to ask: "How is the main medicine?"
After basically confirming his identity, Lin Yan unconsciously put down all his precautions and said: "I found the ice spirit root!"
With that said, he took out the ice spirit root that he and others had brought from the island in the "Misty Swamp" and gave it to Mr. Sun.
The latter nodded after taking it and said: "Not bad, not bad! I'm really lucky that you were able to get the things and escape unscathed. It's not easy!"
Listening to what Mr. Sun said, Lin Yan couldn't help but smile bitterly. The journey of himself and others was not smooth. Putting aside the second-generation Liu Xiahuai, the battle with the "Bone Erosion Sect" was extremely fierce. . Coupled with the various dangers in the swamp, the many strange things on the island, and the starving ghost, it would be a narrow escape for everyone to come back alive!
I don't know what the huge golden pupils seen in the last glimpse were. If it was not an illusion, the few of them had really walked through the gate of hell. This experience could not be said to be smooth.
However, Mr. Sun's words seemed to have other meanings. Could it be that he had also gone in?
The island is indeed dangerous, but if elixirs like "Ice Spiritual Roots" grow there, there will be other elixirs. It is indeed a very tempting place for doctors.
Lin Yan continued: "However, I only found this one, but I have never obtained the 'Red Flame Fruit'."
In fact, there may not be any "Red Flame Fruit" on this small island, but under the circumstances at that time, it was good that Lin Yan and the others could escape smoothly. How could they have time to search carefully?
Lin Yan even suspected that as long as he and others were delayed for even a moment, they would be swallowed by the giant thing. At least now, when I see those huge golden pupils, my heart is full of fear.
This thing is invincible!
Hearing this, Mr. Sun hesitated for a moment and said: "It is extremely difficult to obtain the 'Ice Spirit Root', but as a result, the antidote becomes a bit difficult!"
Lin Yan felt a little disappointed and thought to himself: "As expected, it still doesn't work? But it's normal. After all, the main ingredient is missing. Although he is the 'drug king', he can't produce medicine out of thin air!"
He continued: "Mr. Sun, I understand that I will trouble you this time. I will think of a solution for the missing elixir."
Mr. Sun waved his hand and said, "I have it!"
Lin Yan was stunned and didn't react for a long time. He thought to himself: "What the hell? Do you have it?"
Mr. Sun continued: "I got a 'Red Flame Fruit' by chance before, which can be used in refining your antidote. But with just this one, the refining of the antidote cannot be done at all. Mistake, otherwise all the previous efforts will be wasted, even if there is a surplus of other elixirs, it will be useless."
At this moment, Lin Yan also understood that the lack of the main ingredient directly increased the requirements for refining the antidote. This made it clear that the absolute probability of success must be maintained. Any slightest mistake would lead to failure!
And the King of Medicine is a human being after all, and it is impossible to ask him to maintain such a high success rate all the time. If that were the case, he would no longer be a mortal, but the "God of Medicine"!
Lin Yan cupped his hands and said, "Mr. Sun, do your best and obey fate. You don't have to feel pressure!"
When Mr. Sun heard this, he nodded appreciatively and said, "You are quite open-minded!"
Lin Yan smiled bitterly and thought: "It's impossible not to be open-minded! Things have progressed to this point, which is already a good result. What's the point of blaming others? Besides, even if the antidote fails, it is not necessarily a dead end for him, it is just a risk It’s just bigger!”
Then he continued: "Mr. Sun, this 'Red Flame Fruit' must be extremely precious, far more than gold and silver. I can't get anything of equal value for a while. But please don't worry, no matter what you ask for, I will do my best. Done!"
Mr. Sun waved his hand and said: "Since we are destined to meet each other, besides, you are also a kid who likes me, so I will give you this 'Red Flame Fruit'!"
Lin Yan was not hypocritical when he heard this. This thing was indeed what he needed urgently. However, he silently remembered this matter in his heart and left it to report in the future.
"Oh, the water is ready!" When Mr. Sun heard the sound of steam, he turned around and entered the house. He turned around after a while, but he was holding a teapot and a few cups in his hand.
After placing it on the table, Mr. Sun said with a smile: "Try the best mountain 'Yunwu Tea'!"
Several people poured it in and began to taste it, but except for Ming Ya and Fei Qian who nodded in surprise, the three of them, including Lin Yan, were rough people, and there was no difference between drinking tea and ordinary water.
Taking advantage of this moment, Mr. Sun continued: "Let me take your pulse first and see how the situation is!"
As he spoke, Mr. Sun stretched out his hand and put his hand on Lin Yan's wrist. He was smiling at first, but soon he stopped smiling. He stared blankly and said, "Why?" Will this happen?"
How long had it passed? Even if Mr. Sun had prepared for the worst, he just assumed that the toxins in Lin Yan's body had spread further. He never thought that it would be like this.
The toxin of "Bone-Corroding Ecstasy" did not spread further, but Lin Yan's body contained many other toxins. These toxins were mixed together to form a toxin that was different from "Bone-Corroding Ecstasy" and could resist it. , in order to achieve an alternative balance.
However, this balance is obviously extremely fragile. Although Lin Yan seems to be fine for the time being, if the balance is broken, it will not only be the "bone-eroding ecstasy" toxin, but this mixed poison will also corrode Lin Yan's body at the same time. The situation will be becomes more complex!
Mr. Sun raised his head and looked at him. Lin Yan also noticed that Mr. Sun's eyes were a bit resentful, and he felt a little embarrassed immediately. He doesn’t want to do this kind of thing! It's just that the situation was urgent at the time, so we had no choice but to make this decision!
After a while, Mr. Sun sighed and said, "You can really surprise me! That's all. I'll refine the antidote for you first, and then we'll figure out how to solve it after it's over."
Even if the antidote is successfully refined, once the "bone-corroding ecstasy" is eliminated, the mixed poison will suddenly burst out, causing great harm to Lin Yan.
Nowadays, both are indispensable. If one is removed, the other will explode instantly, which is extremely difficult!
Moreover, during the investigation just now, Mr. Sun sensed that the toxins from the two opposing camps had the potential to merge. Once that happens, things will be several times more difficult than now!
Amidst a burst of sighs, Mr. Sun entered the room on one side alone. It looked like a pharmacy. He was probably there to refine the antidote for Lin Yan.
Ming Ya said worriedly: "Mr. Sun doesn't seem to have much confidence either!"
Lin Yan knew his own situation, and when he encountered a patient like himself, it did pose a problem for Mr. Sun.
Monk Chen on the side murmured in a low voice: "Isn't he the King of Medicine? If you can't cure the young master, how can you have the nerve to call yourself the 'King of Medicine'?"
Guo Toad said: "The Medicine King is not omnipotent."
Everyone had no choice but to sit down and drink tea, passing the time absentmindedly while waiting for the results.
…
After a while, the sound of footsteps came, and Lin Yan and others' hearts moved: "Someone is coming!"
The location of this place is hidden, so it is unlikely that outsiders are coming, so it should be Mr. Sun's apprentice who has returned.
Looking towards the entrance of the courtyard, the sound of footsteps gradually became clearer, and at the same time its owner appeared in front of everyone.
It was a petite girl, about eleven or twelve years old, with two buns, and long black hair hanging from both sides to her chest. Her face is round and looks like she has some baby fat. She is so cute and tight that people can't help but want to go up and squeeze her.
She was wearing a pure white dress and carrying a large basket on her back. Although she came back from collecting herbs outside, she was spotlessly clean.
At this moment, the girl blinked her big watery eyes, looked at Lin Yan and others warily, and asked timidly: "Who are you...? Where is the master?"
Monk Chen stood up and said with a smile: "We are your master's guests, and your master is in the room! Come, I will help you get the medicine basket."
As he spoke, he went to help the girl get the backpack. After all, the big backpack did not match the girl's petite figure. Monk Chen became protective and wanted to help.
However, the moment he approached, the girl suddenly took a step closer, and then threw Monk Chen to the ground with a throw over her shoulder.
"Um?"
