In Yongren Hall, Wu Sheng was taking the pulse of a child less than eight years old. After taking the pulse for a long time, he got up and walked back and forth in the atrium.
Compared to two months ago, the child looked even more depressed. He leaned weakly in the chair and gritted his teeth to persist. He felt pain all over his body. This pain has become more and more intense in the past few months.
His mother held his hand, as if the pain had spread to her body, and her face was pale.
The child weakly said to his mother: "Mom, I can't bear it, it hurts so much... I don't want to live anymore... Mom..."
The young mother suddenly burst into tears: "If my son can endure it any longer, Alchemist Shen will find a way, there must be a way..."
The child's father looked anxiously at Wu Sheng, who was pacing back and forth, his eyes full of anticipation and nervousness.
This child's illness is common in Southern Chu and even the Four Kingdoms and Baiyue. Wu Sheng still can't figure out the cause. He wants to visualize the reason, but is blocked by the child's meridians, and the Tai Chi ball cannot do it. Wu Sheng It is speculated that it may be related to the energy of living beings.
By using the true energy to circulate in the meridians of this child, one can detect the subtle poisons everywhere in the meridians. The meridians of the human body are invisible, and the formation of tangible toxins in the invisible meridians is very mysterious. I don’t know whether this poison grew on its own or invaded the body from the outside world. It is very stubborn and difficult to cure with elixirs.
Two months ago, Wu Sheng tried to use the true essence to penetrate the child's meridians to remove it. However, the child has no talent for cultivation and has not entered the practice. The meridians are very fragile and have low endurance. If he forcibly removes the toxins with the true essence, the meridians may be damaged. Waste, the same dead end.
This has always been an important thing on Wu Sheng's mind. He really couldn't see the sick child and wanted to try to save it. The discovery of the dark golden spiritual sand gave him new treatment ideas.
The black ginseng pills refined by Yunji as a tribute to the Chu Kingdom were originally intended to reduce the cost of elixir refining. The cost was indeed reduced, but it also had a consequence. The maintenance period of the medicine's effect was greatly shortened, and it would become useless after one year. Dan. What caused this consequence was this newly synthesized dark golden spiritual sand.
The so-called medicine is three parts poison, and this sentence is also true in reverse - poison is three parts medicine!
If this dark golden spiritual power is sent into a child's body, will it attenuate the toxicity of this toxin?
The question now is, how can the lethality of the dark golden spiritual power be directed at the invisible meridians without damaging the visible organs of the body? After thinking about it, for an ordinary person who cannot practice, I am afraid it is impossible. Since it is not possible, then we must find a way to achieve a good balance while killing the body.
Now that the direction is set, all that's left is to refine the pill.
If you want to protect the rest of the body, the fastest way is to refer to Yunji's recipe for refining black ginseng pills. Since the Tegong black ginseng pills he made are effective and will not cause physical harm to the user, Damage, it means that the ratio of other spiritual materials has an outstanding protective effect, and can even greatly reduce this damage to a harmless level.
Of course, you cannot copy them all, otherwise the dark gold spiritual power will be useless and will be ineffective against the toxins in the meridians. Therefore, the weight of the dark gold spiritual power should be increased and the weight of other spiritual materials should be reduced.
Wu Sheng made alchemy on the spot. This was the first time he made alchemy after breaking through the realm. The bonus of breaking through the realm also affected his control of the real fire. The method of controlling the real fire has taken a big step forward. He can do whatever he wants, and the speed of making the elixir is also very fast. Almost 20%.
In less than half an hour, a batch of simplified and adjusted versions of Wushen Pills were made. There were three pills in total, and Wu Sheng named them Chemotherapy Pill No. 1.
In the formula, the dark golden spiritual power is relatively weak, and there are relatively more spiritual materials used to protect the rest of the body and balance the effectiveness of the dark golden spiritual power. The main purpose is to test the medicine while ensuring safety.
Feed Chemotherapy Pill No. 1 to the child, take the pulse with your finger, and observe the reaction at any time. The elixir took effect quickly. After a cup of tea, the child reacted and developed a fever.
Wu Sheng penetrated the true energy into his meridians bit by bit, circulated it in the eight extraordinary meridians, counted the toxins again, and then came out and recorded it in the record. Seeing that the child had no major reaction other than having a fever, he asked the child's parents to take him back and come back in three days.
Three days later, Wu Sheng observed the changes in toxins in the child's meridians and found that the changes were not significant and the effect of removing toxins was not obvious, so he decided to refine Chemotherapy Pill No. 2 to increase the weight of the dark golden spiritual power.
This time, the reaction was severe. Vomiting occurred. Wu Sheng's expected hair loss also appeared. The child was in great pain. The observation period was three days. Wu Sheng asked his parents to live with their children in a wing in the front yard of Yongrentang, so that they could receive timely treatment if any situation arises. During the three days, the child suffered severe torture, but Wu Sheng also found a way to alleviate the pain - taking Jingning Pill, which can effectively enhance the child's tolerance to pain.
Three days later, when he checked his meridians again, Wu Sheng was surprised to find that the toxins in his meridians had been reduced by 20%!
So I started the third course of treatment, taking Chemotherapy Pill No. 2 and Jingning Pill at the same time. After three days, the toxins were reduced by another 30%!
Then came the fourth course of treatment, the fifth course of treatment...
After five courses of treatment, there are no traces of toxins in the meridians and they have been completely eliminated!
The child's symptoms are getting better day by day. Although his body has suffered tremendous torture and some of his organs have been damaged, the original pain has been completely eliminated. His whole body is radiant and his damaged organs can slowly recover. All this has long been seen by his parents. When Wu Sheng officially announced that he was completely cured, the whole family of seven people came to Yongrentang and knelt down to thank Wu Sheng.
Wu Sheng quickly helped them up one by one and said with a smile: "We are all neighbors, why bother?"
The child's father presented Wu Sheng with a box filled with ant nose money in both hands, crying with joy: "Master Shen Dan, you are the savior of my family. I really don't know how to repay this. This is all the money in the family, six hundred and fifty." Ten coins, please take it away from Alchemist Shen first. If you are short of anything, our whole family will have to pay it back!"
But he saw that Wu Sheng seemed to be in a daze, so he said cautiously: "Master Shen, Master Shen? How much do you owe? I will borrow it. I will go now..."
Wu Sheng seemed to suddenly wake up from a dream. He laughed and took out an ant-nosed coin from the box: "Your family is the first to cure this disease. You took the risk, but you also did me a favor. Just take one for the consultation fee, one is enough!”
The family said goodbye with a lot of gratitude, everyone with smiles on their faces, and Wu Sheng also had a smile on his face, a smile of surprise.
Just now, the Tai Chi ball inexplicably rotated on its own, absorbing and transforming seven nearly transparent and light spiritual sands from the heads of this family. These spiritual sands floated in the sky of the island, forming an invisible cloud. .
Although he obviously had no spiritual power, seven grains were transformed into him in an instant. Wu Sheng didn't know where this spiritual sand came from, but he vaguely realized that doing good deeds is also practice.
