Chapter 26: Five Types of Medicinal Herbs

  "You can go now, I know. This time you... did a good job." Li You Ran said slowly, looking at the man in green clothes with a gentle expression.

  The man in blue clothes was suddenly excited, and he made a fist and said: "Thank you, sir. I will take my leave." As if that one word "not bad" was already the highest praise!

  Li You Ran's face remained calm as water, slightly nodding his head. The man in the green robe retreated ten steps back with his head down before turning around and walking away quickly. It wasn't until then that he dared to slowly exhale the turbid air he had been holding in. In front of this young master, he didn't even dare to breathe loudly!

  "Someone, please inform Grandfather who is currently discussing matters with His Majesty in the palace. Tell him that Tang Wanli has brought many experts to the Li residence, but there's no need to worry. Although they don't come with good intentions, it's also a great opportunity. Everything has its pros and cons, it just depends on whether we can seize it." Li You Ran smiled lightly, her black hair gently lifting in the wind.

  In the shadows, someone responded with a single word, followed by a rustling sound, and that person had already rushed away.

  "This time, although we let Jun Mo Xie escape and the Jun family was able to narrowly avoid being implicated, if we were to let Duke Tang and the Meng family make a big fuss, they would definitely be forced into a desperate situation... If at this time, Grandfather were to intervene and make the Meng and Tang families sworn enemies, it would be possible to completely pull the Meng family over, or even subdue them. The Jun family only has one descendant left, Jun Mo Xie, so dealing with him wouldn't be difficult; but as for the Dugu family, they can't be touched yet, nor can they be moved..."

  Li You Ran let out a faint sigh, stretched out her palm, and gently plucked a leaf from the peony tree in front of her. Her slender fingers were white and delicate, dry and clean. As if afraid of disturbing the quiet of the peony tree, she softly picked off a leaf and looked at it tenderly: "But even so, it's... quite good, at least very interesting."

  The distant hoofbeats sounded like thunder and had already reached the front gate.

  Li You Ran smiled lightly and raised an eyebrow, saying: "Open the middle gate, and welcome Tang Lao Hou Ye with the most solemn ceremony!"

  As soon as the words were spoken, a long and slender finger suddenly snapped, and a yellow light flashed on his body. The green leaf in his hand flew out with a golden light and silently embedded itself into the trunk of the peony tree in front of him...

  Just as the green leaves were about to make their move, a bolt of lightning suddenly flashed across the sky, dark clouds rolled in, and had already arrived above their heads. A strong gust of wind started blowing.

  In the flash of lightning, Li You Ran's white robe fluttered in the strong wind, his tall figure seemed to move slightly, then flashed, and he seemed to disappear directly from the courtyard...

  Where did you go again?

  He went to a place that Old Master Jun would never have thought of in his dreams. Old Master Jun had been very certain that Jun Mo Xie would not be able to set foot in this place again for the rest of his life. Because it was in this very place that Jun Mo Xie had received two severe beatings, each time taking half a month to recover from bed. These two beatings were also the only times in Jun Mo Xie's life that he had suffered such brutal violence, domestic violence!

  That place is, Jun Mo Xie's unintentionally entered the courtyard of the Third Uncle.

  You unintentionally spent your whole life in military camps, and even the place you lived was as close to your family's drill grounds as possible.

  You sat quietly and unusually calm in a wheelchair, looking through the flowers at the training of your family's guards on the school grounds, with changing expressions in your eyes, that long-lost ambition seemed to be stirring again.

  He crouched in front of him, his hands secretly operating the mysterious skill. On Jun Wu's unknowing and unconscious legs, slowly moving from top to bottom, then from bottom to top. This time, he carefully checked every inch of tendons, every acupoint, even every thread of muscle!

  Jun Xie had been unable to find a cure for the strange power in his body for over a month, and he couldn't even examine it. But now, not only did he have this power, but it was also known as the "Primordial First Technique" - the Opening Heaven and Earth Technique. Jun Xie naturally wanted to re-examine it carefully, ensuring that there were no mistakes, before deciding how to treat it.

  After a long time, you finally stopped with a big sweat on your head, stood up, and had a hint of joy in your eyes.

  "How is it?" The gentleman's face, with clear-cut features, seemed to be indifferent, his tone was calm, but a pair of hands had already clenched into fists, the veins on the back of his hand bulging out, apparently, he was not as calm in his heart!

  Although he had seen the joy on Jun Xie's face, he still didn't dare to believe that his crippled legs, which had been disabled for a long time, really had hope of recovery!

  You're his only and last hope!

  He didn't even dare ask if Jun Xie could cure him, and only dared to ask "how"!

  He really hopes to get a definite answer!

  "Although the situation is not very optimistic, it's not that pessimistic either." Xie smiled, "Indeed, it will take some effort, but I'm quite confident that I can help San Shu get back on his feet!"

  "Good!" Jun Wu Yi finally couldn't help but reveal his joy, and after the excitement, he still had a few doubts. After all, many famous doctors of this generation were helpless when it came to their own legs, and this young master nephew of his, who had been acting strangely recently, how could he possibly have such great abilities to save himself? But at this moment, Jun Wu Yi was like a drowning man clutching at straws, and as long as there was even a glimmer of hope, he would grasp it with all his might. Even if his nephew was just bragging, the worst that could happen was that he would be disappointed once again. The various emotions in Jun San Ye's heart were impossible for outsiders to fully understand.

  "I'll tell you the names of a few medicines later, Third Uncle can arrange for someone to go out and buy them. As long as these medicines are found, I believe that your days of recovery are not far off, Third Uncle." said Jun Xie.

  "Good! Which medicines are those? Are there any particularly precious ones, I'll arrange for someone to go find them immediately!" Jun Wuji seemed very anxious.

  "Rupturewort, Leonurus, Nine-leaf Grass, Discontinue Root; and also Burnt Lotus." Jun Xie rattled off the names of five medicinal herbs in one breath, naturally using the names by which they were known in this world. In the past few days, Jun Xie had flipped through all the medical classics in the library, after all, the names of the medicines he knew from his previous life were not easily mixed with those of this life. Fortunately, there were many medical classics in the library, and Jun Xie had all the medicinal materials needed for his prescription, as long as he followed the illustrations in the books and matched them one by one to their new names.

  "Commelina, Dicliptera and Tetrastigma I've heard of, but what are Polygonum and Cyrtomium?" Jun Wu asked with a furrowed brow. It's no wonder that Jun Wu was puzzled, for he had extensive knowledge of medicine, yet he didn't know these two herbs, which were instead mentioned by the evil Jun.

  He smiled and took out a book from his bosom, which was actually an illustrated guide to rare flowers and herbs. He opened it in front of Jun Wu: "Look, this is the Nine-Leaf Grass, and this is the Burning Incense Lotus. These few medicinal herbs, except for the Burning Incense Lotus which is relatively hard to find, are all very common. Our manor's pharmacy or even the medicine shops in town should have them. And with these medicines combined, plus my own secret method, I'm over 70% sure that we can cure Third Uncle's illness!"

  "Good!" You had no intention of staring at the few medicines on the book page with dead eyes, as if you had gained a treasure, and your voice couldn't help but tremble slightly.

  It's been ten whole years! Finally, I feel like hope is right in front of me again!
