840: Chapter 840: Medicinal Tea (4) 840: Chapter 840: Medicinal Tea (4) Yang Ruxin fell silent for a moment.
Perhaps her difference wasâŠ
She looked down at the red birthmark in the palm of her hand, maybe it was related to space, since space could store things.
Hence, itâs possible that her body could store medicines too.
So, she stepped forward and gripped Gu Qinghengâs hand, âMaybe, I can tryâŠâ
Gu Qingheng gripped Yang Ruxinâs hand in return, âXinxinâŠâ
âI know my own body.â Yang Ruxin patted the back of his hand soothingly, âMaybe it really isâŠ
different from others.â
âOld man, let me try it, IâŠâ Gu Qingheng was still worried.
âYou are not suitable.â Dao Xuzi directly interrupted Gu Qingheng, âThe poison in your body is already severe enough.
If you try this and it doesnât work, all our previous efforts will be in vainâŠâ
âLittle Hengzi, you must trust Master.
He will not let anything happen to meâŠâ Yang Ruxin stroked Gu Qinghengâs head, âYou must believe in our abilitiesâŠâ
In the end, Gu Qingheng agreed, albeit reluctantly.
From then on, Yang Ruxin began her new routine of consuming a bowl of medicinal soup each morning and undertaking a Medicine Bath for half an hour every evening.
As for what changes would take place, that remained to be seen.
But how could Yang Ruxin easily become the old manâs test subject?
Naturally, she had her conditions, and that was to make medicinal tea.
The medicinal tea she had previously taken as gifts were personally prepared by the old man himself.
âHow did I end up taking such a foolish apprentice?â Dao Xuzi truly showed great disdain for Yang Ruxin.
âWhatâs wrong with me?â Yang Ruxin protested, âAt least Iâve memorized the Collection of Herbs.
Why do you despise me so much?â
âMedicinal tea, medicinal tea, do you really think itâs tea?â Dao Xuzi took a deep breath, feeling the urge to hit someone if he did not calm down, âThose are medicinal herbs that are consumed like teaâŠ
Didnât you even check?
Were there any tea leaves in those medicine packets?
Some teas are incompatible with certain herbsâŠ
and then you go collaborating with those in the tea business, IâŠâ he said, raising his hand.
Yang Ruxin hastily retreated two steps, guiltily touching her nose.
She also remembered that indeed, tea leaves could neutralize poisons; she had just forgotten before.
âForget it, forget it.â Dao Xuzi finally deflated a bit and waved his hand, then turned to pull a book from the shelf and tossed it to Yang Ruxin, âMemorize this within a month, not a single word lessâŠ
And from now on, come learn medicine brewing and concocting with me every dayâŠâ The girl was good material for learning medicine, but it was a pity she was not dedicated enough, which worried him greatly.
Yang Ruxin glanced at the âYunmen Medical Classicâ in her hand and her face fell, âCan I not memorize it?â
âIf you canât memorize it, I wonât treat himâŠâ Dao Xuzi was dead serious, âIâll immediately return to Yunmen Mountain and wonât come down for anyoneâŠâ He wondered internally if he was being too harsh.
What ifâŠ
Oh dear, should he rephrase that?
âYouâre ruthless!â Yang Ruxin huffed and then turned and walked away.
She had never dealt with such importance before, and she wasnât particularly fond of studying medicine.
What she knew now was simply the result of having a golden finger.
The reason she took on a master was only to cover her tracks, but who knewâŠ
She felt like she had trapped herself.
Gu Qingheng watched Dao Xuzi thoughtfully.
But the old Dao Xuzi revealed a triumphant smile, waiting for the day the girl learned enough.
Then, he could truly retire with his mission accomplished.
