Lu Jing came out of Renhui Bank and gave Amu a high-five first.

Thanks to the latter's cooperation, he made noise at the critical moment to attract the attention of the shopkeeper, so that Lu Jing could complete the trick and exchange the "Puji Medical Prescription Examination" newly bought from the bookstore in his arms for Xiao Yi's copy stored in the bank. That one.

Then Lu Jing went to the bookstore and bought another copy of "Puji Medical Prescription Examination" and compared it word for word with the one in his hand.

It didn't take long to notice the difference.

The "Puji Medical Prescription Examination" that I got back from the bank has a page that looks like it was newly pasted not long ago. It is a prescription for replenishing qi and blood. However, the medicinal materials are very complicated. There are nearly forty kinds, which can be written in full. One side.

On the back side, there are also methods for processing and frying various medicinal materials.

Lu Jing carefully tore off the page.

He is not a medical student, and he doesn't know if this prescription is what he is looking for.

Forget it if it doesn't work. What if this is some other poisonous recipe hidden by Xiao Yi? He mixes the medicine according to the above recipe, and if he eats it and causes some problems, it will be great fun.

So just to be on the safe side, Lu Jing copied down the medicinal materials to be used on that page, and then went to find Jia Langzhong first.

Jia Langzhong had made a lot of money from Xia Huai, bought a lot of furniture for the thatched cottage, and also raised a dog to prevent anyone from stealing his pickles again.

Even looking at Lu Jing became more pleasing to the eye. After hearing what Lu Jing said, he didn't ask for money first, so he took the prescription and started reading.

As a result, he frowned after only looking at a few flavors of medicine.

He read another line and started yelling, "What a bullshit quackery, it's harmful to people!"

But after reading a few more lines, a look of hesitation flashed in his eyes, and he began to murmur, "The properties of the medicines conflict...it's not right..."

But as he continued to look, Jia Langzhong suddenly closed his mouth.

Not a word was spoken.

It wasn't until he finished reading the entire page of medicine that he closed his eyes and meditated for a long time before opening his eyes again.

"No, there is no specific dosage or treatment method. I still can't understand it."

"Old Jia, just tell me whether these medicines are poisonous when mixed together." Lu Jing couldn't stand it anymore and asked directly.

"Poison, at first glance, is there, and some of it is highly toxic." Jia Langzhong said cautiously, "But when mixed together, it seems that they can be reconciled with each other. It's strange. The person who wrote this square character is obviously a medical wizard. , I am not as good as him, and I can’t even tell what he wants to do. As expected, with Yu Qihuang, I am just getting started."

Lu Jing felt that Jia Langzhong seemed a little frustrated.

Although this guy looks calm and indifferent, and has been living in the mountains and countryside, his self-esteem is actually quite strong. He used to like to brag about how powerful he was, and he was not the same as those in the city. Very impressive.

This time I only took a look at the medicinal ingredients on the prescription, and it was rare for me to be so discouraged.

Lu Jing comforted, "This recipe is originally for people in the martial arts world. It's normal that you don't understand it."

Hearing this, Jia Langzhong just shook his head, "No, no, no, I can still see the difference. I am not a self-deceiver. Alas, I can only say that there are others outside. It seems that I still have to urge Xixin to study hard."

Xixin, who was dozing next to her, couldn't help but trembled when she heard this, and tears instantly soaked her eyes.

He couldn't understand why his master was attacked, but the final pain had to be borne by him, the little medicine boy.

But then he heard Lu Jing said, "Old Jia, can you teach me how to handle the medicinal materials? I plan to boil the medicinal materials myself, and I can pay you."

Jia Langzhong waved his hand, "Don't bother me with such a small matter, just ask Xixin directly."

…………

After seeing the prescription from Dr. Jia, Lu Jing went back to the city to get the medicine.

According to Jia Langzhong, most of the medicinal materials in the prescription can be bought in drug stores, but some are rare and some are more common.

But there are also a few special medicinal materials that seem to be used only by people in the martial arts world, and are relatively rare in ordinary drug stores.

Fortunately, there is a martial arts force in Wujiang City that specializes in growing and selling medicinal materials - Baicaomen.

Lu Jing found the herbal medicine shop opened by Baicaomen on Gulou Street, copied the few herbs he needed on paper, and handed them to the pharmacist in the hall.

The pharmacist only glanced at it and said, "Sixty-three taels of silver."

"So expensive?" Lu Jing was stunned. He had taken the medicine according to a week's supply, which meant he could cook seven doses.

Coupled with other medicinal materials, the average medicine cost almost ten taels of silver.

The price is not only expensive, it is simply outrageous.

Although Lu Jing is rich now, it is not the way to go.

Before, he bought more than 30 kinds of medicines from other medicine shops, some of which were relatively rare. He spent less than four taels of silver in total. In the end, he only had five medicines left, and they were all in very small quantities. It actually cost more than sixty taels of silver in one breath.

Is this Baicaomen also a black shop?

Lu Jing had never suffered a loss among Jia Lang, and now he was particularly wary of this kind of thing.

As if he could tell what he was thinking, the pharmacist shook his head.

"Baicaomen is open for business and has not changed its prices for more than ten years. If you don't believe me, you can ask around here. Besides, someone came to buy what you want three days ago, so I remember the price very clearly.

"Forget about the other three. Our Baicao Sect grows them ourselves, but the fire lantern grass and white-eyed silkworm clothes are not specialties of our Chen Dynasty. One is in the Western Region and the other is in the East China Sea. The number itself is not large and it is thousands of miles away. It’s been shipped all the way here, so the price… naturally goes up as the tide goes up.”

Lu Jing felt mixed emotions when he heard this.

Fortunately, since Xiao Yi has been here, it means that 90% of the time, this recipe has fallen into the mortal world.

The worry is, of course, the price.

A dose of medicine costs ten taels, which is almost as much as the average civilian family spends for half a year.

However, it was Lu Jing who had to spend it.

Mr. Song was also at a loss for sending a wave of heads in time, otherwise Lu Jing would not be able to afford the medicine even if he got the prescription.

Now he has a total of more than two hundred and sixty taels of silver.

There are also some weapons found in Xiao Yi's residence and the group of Jianghu people who came to attack him last night. They can probably be sold for another sixty or seventy taels, which is enough to last until the Imperial City Division's bounty is paid. .

If it really doesn't work, I can still sell the jade flute.

"Okay, then just give it to me according to the amount on the paper. Also, if I buy more, can it be cheaper?" Lu Jing asked again.

"How much do you want?" The pharmacist was stunned when he heard this, "How much do you want?"

"Ten times the amount, I'll buy it every hundred days." Lu Jing thought for a moment and said, as long as it was proven that this medicine could indeed help him consume excess internal energy, he would definitely have to fry a little more just in case. required.

The pharmacist's expression immediately became strange, and he couldn't help but add another word, "...you know that both of these medicines are poisonous, right?"

"I know, I know." Lu nodded.

The pharmacist didn't say anything after hearing this. The Baicao Sect had rules and the pharmacy did not ask customers what they were doing when buying medicine. He had already overstepped the mark by saying more, so he just nodded this time.

"Okay, then I'll give you sixty taels."
