Chapter 2 Refining medicine starts with the defense
Chapter 2 Refining medicine starts with the defense
As the saying goes, you can eat mountains if you rely on mountains, and you can eat water if you rely on water.
Located on the edge of a vast forest, adventurers naturally make a living by hunting monsters.
But the money is not that easy to make.
The world is not good, especially in the area where Ji Ming lives.
Although the Hessian Territory still belongs to the Kingdom of Glow in name, the ruler's management has become out of reach, and it is basically equivalent to an autonomous territory.
And because it is close to the Monster Mountains and the Savage Plains, this place has formed a chaotic situation with complex races and intertwined forces.
Adventurers may be counterattacked by monsters, robbed by gangs, or even ambushed by strange sneak attacks.
For example, the two young men in front of me are examples of people who suffer big losses due to carelessness.
It's getting late and you dare to leave the team. If you're not unlucky, who is?
Ji Ming calmed down his breathing and began to warn Charlie.
"Although the wound on your friend's calf did not touch the bones, it is best not to touch the ground for a while."
"If possible, take in more meat and try to make up for the lost energy and blood as much as possible."
Charlie nodded like a child being scolded by a teacher.
"I'll remember it, and I'll pass it on to Uncle Morton."
Morton.
Is he the father of that brave boy?
Ji Ming didn't care that much.
"Well, just remember it."
Then the two fell into an inexplicable silence and looked at each other.
Finally it was Charlie who came to his senses.
"I almost forgot, doctor, how much does the treatment cost?"
Ji Ming pulled up the price list and started settling with his fingers.
"It costs one copper coin to clean the wound, three copper coins to use the coagulation powder, one copper coin to use to suture the wound, and twenty copper coins to use the rejuvenation liquid..."
But Charlie became more and more confused as he listened, and in the end he could only keep scratching his head.
"So...how much should it add up to?"
The education in this world is too bad!
Ji Ming had no choice but to give the answer directly.
"Fifty-four, a total of fifty-four copper coins."
"But seeing as you are still children, let's put a zero on it."
After hearing this number, Charlie's face was troubled.
"Doctor, I'm afraid I don't have that much money..."
Ji Ming smiled slightly.
"Then go back and get it."
The fourth rule of quackery is to never accept credit.
but.
Mortgage is acceptable.
"Remember to rest early, and remember to bring money to redeem the knife early tomorrow."
After accepting Bailey's saber, Ji Ming watched the two teenagers leave the clinic.
Originally, both should have been detained, but Sunshine City was no better than others, so it was better to leave them with something for self-defense.
Wash the blood and stains on the knife, and the sharp blade shines with cold light.
This turned out to be a pretty good sword. Although it had nothing to do with magic or craftsmanship, it was already a family heirloom for an ordinary person.
Could it be two rich second generations?
But will a kid from a rich family run out and take this risk?
Putting the inconclusive thoughts behind him, Ji Ming began to study this additional skill point.
He had a premonition.
If you add it to the production of rejuvenating liquid, you can make a qualified product immediately.
And if you add it to the corpse suturing technique, you can also get a complete wound suturing technique.
However, the former can be concluded through continuous experiments, and the latter seems to have no practical significance under the current circumstances.
So Ji Ming once again chose the new roll skill.
<divclass="contentadv">【Please wait】
[Congratulations on acquiring the combat skill Knock on Sap]
[Knock on the sap: You can "hit the target's head with a blunt object" to put apprentice-level professionals into a forced stun state]
[For patients who can survive, this is the best anesthetic; for patients who cannot survive, this is the best euthanasia]
……
Ji Ming took out the short ax from his arms and looked at its thick rusty iron back.
Sora waved it a few times, and it was pretty smooth.
It's always a means of self-preservation.
Now that it was over, Ji Ming couldn't wait to get into the medicine-making room.
He sat next to the medicine pot and once again opened "his" medical notes.
Although Ji Ming in the setting did not know the correct ratio of the rejuvenating liquid, he had successfully produced several inferior products and still left vague records in his notes.
For example, the most commonly used material is elixir grass, and the number of drops of toad venom is the same as the amount of centipede jaws and feet.
Even if there is only a general direction, it is better than a headless fly. So the only problem now is...
A cross was nailed out with wooden strips, and Ji Ming tied a large, shiny black mouse to it.
"Squeak!"
Shushu is full of energy, even though it has been immobilized, its fat body is still struggling.
"Very good, it seems our volunteers are ready for the experiment."
Ji Ming used firewood to light a flame, set up a cauldron, and confidently began to explore the formula for the rejuvenating liquid.
Herbs, Jawfoot, Mica Stone.
Timing, measuring, counting sequence.
He felt like he was back in high school doing chemistry experiments.
Shake the test tube twice, then pick up a pen and paper to record two numbers.

As the materials were continuously added, the water in the pot also began to change color.
The mysterious soup base surging with infinite darkness gradually took shape, and a very magical smell filled the air.
It's like boiling canned herring and durian together.
Afraid that the taste was not strong enough, I filled half a bottle of all the condiments I could find in the kitchen.
You may also add a few drops of finely ground sesame oil at the end for freshness.
"Squeak squeak!"
This effect was too strong, and Shushu, who had just calmed down, instantly regained his vitality.
It opened its mouth wide and its eyes popped out, and it swayed from side to side as if someone had strangled its neck.
"Oh shit, am I cooking shit for fun!?"
After retching twice, Ji Ming could no longer hold back his rigorous scientific research attitude. He immediately rushed out of the medicine-making room and found an old piece of clothing to cover his mouth and nose.
When he returned, the suspicious liquid in the pot had begun to thicken while evaporating.
According to the records in the notes, this is the place where the pot is most likely to get stuck, so Ji Ming could only stir it with a spoon as if cooking glutinous rice balls.
A pot of black water was sticky, with bubbles constantly rising as it boiled, and then exploded with a pop.
Ji Ming, who was squatting aside, felt that he was not a mysterious pharmacist, but an evil witch.
"It's definitely not Gargamel anyway. I don't have a cat, only a rat..."
After muttering softly, he sincerely closed the lid of the pot.
Afraid of an accident, he moved another stone and put it on top to hold it down.
While I was still hesitating whether to go out and take a breath of fresh air, I heard the noise in the pot gradually getting louder.
Ji Ming frowned and quickly closed the door in front of him.
boom!
It's like blowing up a dry toilet in a rural area with two kicks.
An even more terrifying stench exploded, and even the heavy stones were shaken open to create a gap.
Ji Ming struggled to hold on to the door frame and almost vomited from nausea.
