Chapter 4
Even if there is no ginseng, I will accept it if you bring me a dried radish.
But you actually told me that the medicine you found is a pill? You must have read too many novels and you are stupid!
How could there be a pill in this world?
There are countless emperors in ancient times who were obsessed with alchemy and eventually died from taking pills.
Alchemy has long been proven to be a rumor.
What immortality.
What cure for all diseases.
What ascension to heaven.
They are all fake.
Only some charlatans would take some pills made of unknown things and pretend that they are pills that can cure all diseases to deceive people.
"An Ran, although I usually neglect to discipline you, your grandfather is dying now, you shouldn't use this kind of deceptive thing to fool around."
The middle-aged man's face was solemn, and he scolded in a deep voice. There was a deep disappointment in his eyes.
He didn't expect to really find a thousand-year-old ginseng.
But his daughter took a pill that came from nowhere and wanted to feed it to the old man.
He said he would not agree to it.
""Dad, this is not a fake pill, it's real!"
Xie Anran was anxious.
She had kowtowed dozens of times to get this. When she thought of the magical spiritual water and the young heir of the miracle doctor, her heart was full of trust. She believed that this Xiaoyuanling Pill would definitely save Grandpa.
But she didn't expect that the key to the matter was stuck here.
""An Ran, I am so disappointed in you!"
The middle-aged man shook his head, his disappointment evident in his words.
Science has proven that there is no elixir that can cure all diseases in this world.
There are only fake pills made by charlatans.
Not to mention the old man, even a healthy person would not dare to take such a pill easily.
Pill = end!
He would never let the old man take this Xiao Yuan Ling Dan.
"Dad, what I said is true, please let me try it!"
Xie Anran begged
"Give it a try? Do you want me to put my life on the line? If you make a mistake, I'll be dead. The middle-aged man stared at Xie Anran with a burning gaze. This torch-like look frightened Xie Anran.
"What happened?"
The argument between the father and daughter attracted Mr. Jin.
"He didn't know which charlatan believed the lies and brought a so-called pill, saying it could save the old man."The middle-aged man explained.
Pill?
Isn't this nonsense?
Old Jin also frowned.
Although he is a Western doctor, he still recognizes Chinese medicine.
But that is limited to Chinese medicine, observation, smell, questioning, and palpation.
As for pills, this has exceeded the scope of Chinese medicine.
It belongs to myths and legends.
Who in modern times still believes in pills!
But the father and daughter can't keep arguing like this.
"Can you let me see it?"
Old Jin decided to expose the lie of the pill.
Xie Anran nodded and handed over the Xiao Yuan Ling Dan.
Old Jin picked up the Xiao Yuan Ling Dan and looked at it carefully.
It was round, transparent, and warm.
It was made very lifelike.
These days, even liars are willing to spend money.
If not, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to deceive Miss Xie!
But fake is fake after all.
In the face of absolute evidence, fake will have nowhere to hide.
"I'll scrape off some powder and test it."
General Xie has temporarily used ginseng liquid to keep himself alive.
Without the thousand-year-old ginseng, Old Jin was helpless.
So he had time to do a small test to expose the lie of the elixir.
Although Xie Anran believed in Su Yun, her father disagreed, and she had no choice but to hope that Old Jin's test would be successful.
Old Jin took the instrument, scraped off some powder, and went to test it.
"Anran, you are becoming more and more disobedient. When the old man's business is over, I will find you a husband. It will save me a lot of trouble if you get married early."
The middle-aged man felt a little disappointed.
It would be fine if she made a fool of herself on weekdays.
But now that the old man's life is hanging by a thread, she is making a fool of herself without knowing the seriousness of the matter.
This makes him feel extremely disappointed.
Hearing that she was going to be married off,
Xie Anran was ready to protest.
But at this time, Mr. Jin came out.
""Mr. Jin, tell her the test results and let her know her mistakes."
The middle-aged man said, hoping to use evidence to attack his daughter who made him worry.
As for the test results, he knew it without even looking at them.
How could the pills sold by this kind of charlatan have the effect of curing diseases?
These days, liars are harming people!
"Secretary Xie, this pill is indeed effective in curing diseases."
At this time, Mr. Jin spoke.
His voice was trembling, and his face showed an expression of disbelief and surprise.
"What did you say?"
The middle-aged man was startled and quickly turned to look at Mr. Jin.
Am I hallucinating?
"From the test results, it can indeed cure diseases, but I dare not say whether it is the elixir in the myth."
"I can only judge that this pill should be made of a lot of precious Chinese medicine, but I am not a Chinese medicine practitioner, so I don't know much about this aspect."
"I suggest that we ask Mr. Tang from Yulin Hall to come here. He is the best Chinese medicine doctor in Hangzhou and may be able to determine whether this pill is real or not."
Mr. Jin spoke quickly and gave his conclusion and suggestion.
Although he is a Western doctor, he also highly respects Chinese medicine.
Can pills really cure diseases?
The middle-aged man felt a little bit unbelievable.
But after all, he had been in the officialdom for many years, and soon suppressed the shock in his heart.
"Since Elder Jin said so, I will call Elder Tang and ask him to come in person."
After thinking about it, the middle-aged man decided to make this call.
Not only to educate his daughter, but also to see what this pill came from.
The hope of a thousand-year-old ginseng was too slim. Although he didn't believe in this Xiaoyuanling Pill, what if?
Facing his biological father, the middle-aged man was also shaken.
Not long after, Elder Tang came.
"Wanru!"
Xie Anran's eyes lit up when she saw her college bestie who came with Old Tang.
Tang Wanru, the daughter of the Tang family, is the manager of the third store of Yulintang.
She is also Su Yun's legal wife.
However, Tang Wanru and Su Yun only got the marriage certificate, but did not hold a wedding banquet.
Therefore, Xie Anran only knew that her bestie got the marriage certificate, but did not know that the other party was Su Yun.
If Xie Anran is a goddess, then Tang Wanru is an iceberg beauty.
With exquisite facial features and a perfect figure, which man can not be moved?
But the indifference that keeps people away from her makes people dare not approach easily.
Like an iceberg snow lotus, it is out of reach.
Tang Wanru also saw Xie Anran at this time, smiled and nodded.
This smile was soul-stirring and stunning.
But at this time, everyone's focus was still on Old Tang.
"Mr. Tang, you are the best Chinese medicine doctor in Hangzhou. I would like to trouble you to taste this Xiao Yuan Ling Dan in person!"
Mr. Jin took the Xiao Yuan Ling Dan and handed it to Mr. Tang.
Mr. Tang put the Xiao Yuan Ling Dan under his nose and sniffed it.
His eyes lit up immediately, his whole body trembled slightly, and he was extremely excited:
"The essence of hundreds of medicines, the essence of heaven and earth!"
"I never thought that I would be able to see the legendary elixir with my own eyes in my lifetime!"
