Chapter 118 The Medicine King's Successor Who Sends Blood Bars 10
After Wang Tong arrived at the yamen, he did not change his arrogant character for a while. He looked down on these small yamen runners. After being ganged up on by others and being beaten up, he realized the reality that he was no longer the feared chief constable of the Dali Temple, but a low-ranking yamen runner patrolling the streets.
Although he knew that he couldn't recover his martial arts because he had no money, he still wanted to give it a try. Maybe there were other ways. Perhaps that girl Su Luochen was too ignorant and didn't know any other ways. This time he had to save money quickly and then find a more powerful doctor to recover his martial arts.
He didn't know that his foundation had been destroyed when Luo Chen first saw it. Unless a god came down to earth, no one could save him. And the only person in this world who knew some immortal magic was Luo Chen.
Later, Wang Tong watched the yamen runners exploiting the small vendors, and he followed their example. Gradually, he could no longer be satisfied with the small vendors, so he turned his attention to the big merchants.
If he could build such a big business, how could he not have someone behind him? The final consequence was that he was beaten with fifty sticks by the county magistrate and transferred to clean the government office. He was fired if he didn't want to do it.
Wang Tong did not dare to resist. Now everyone in the capital knew who he was. No one would want him if he left. He became more and more depressed and resented the Dali Temple and Wang Wenyuan. He was injured while performing his duties, so why didn't the Dali Temple buy him medicine, turning him into a disabled person?
Then the whole capital city knew that the subordinate of the former female detective of Dali Temple was actually such a person, and Bai Feiyan was also pointed at and criticized, and even the people of Dali Temple were suspected of having the same style.
Wang Wenyuan smashed the water cup in his hand angrily. What a nuisance! He has already left the Dali Temple, but he still tarnishes its reputation.
Bai Feiyan was on official business and was not in the capital, so she didn't know about this.
After knowing this, Weng Zening frowned and secretly cursed Wang Tong for being ungrateful. Considering his current condition, it was good enough that there was a place willing to hire him. How could he do such a thing and implicate Feiyan?
Thinking about his own health again, he had seen many doctors, but they all said that he was in good health and there was nothing wrong with him.
But how come there hasn't been any progress at all in more than a year?
Finally, I decided to go find Su Luochen.
In the clinic, Luo Chen was busy seeing patients. This was because she had cured many people these days, and the medical expenses at Baicaotang were very cheap. In addition, Luo Chen provided free medical treatment one day a month and gave away a lot of medicine, so there were a lot of people here during this period.
Most of them were people from the lower class who didn't have much money. Luo Chen tried his best to help them recover as quickly as possible without having to take too many medicines. He also tried his best to avoid bankrupting them on medical treatment and medicines. Therefore, his name as the King of Medicine was resounding throughout the capital.
When Weng Zening arrived, there was still a long queue at Baicao Hall. He took a look and went straight in to find a place to sit and wait. As it was not convenient for him to talk about his martial arts in public, he waited until dark.
Luo Chen also knew it, but he ignored him and just let him wait there without even giving him a glass of water.
After waiting for everyone to leave, Weng Zening finally walked over and sat down opposite Luo Chen.
"Lord Weng, are you feeling unwell?" Luo Chen asked.
Weng Zening curled the corners of his mouth, opened his mouth, and didn't know what to say.
Luo Chen knew it well, and said, "Don't worry, sir, I won't tell anyone about the patient's private affairs, just speak up."
Weng Zening smiled and said, "I would like to ask Miss Su to take a look at my body."
After taking the pulse, Luo Chen said doubtfully: "You are in good health, nothing is wrong."
Weng Zening asked: "Then why hasn't my internal strength increased in more than a year?"
Luo Chen suddenly realized: "You are asking this, maybe you have reached a bottleneck."
"Bottleneck period? What does that mean?" Weng Zening was a little confused.
Luo Chen explained: "It's like encountering a hurdle. If you step over it, you can enter the next higher realm. If you can't step over it, you will remain in the status quo."
"Then how can I move on from this?" Weng Zening wanted to know urgently. If he kept the status quo, he would be replaced by someone sooner or later. This would not work, as he still had a great grudge to avenge.
Luo Chen shrugged: "It depends on one's understanding. Some people can enter the next realm after an epiphany, while some people will never figure it out in their entire life."
Weng Zening asked anxiously: "Miss Su, is there any other way to improve your skills?"
"Yes, but the effect will definitely be greatly reduced. I suggest you calm down and gain enlightenment on your own."
"any solution?"
"...Take medicine, take good medicine." Luo Chen looked at his impatient expression and did not keep him in suspense.
"What medicine? Please ask Dr. Su to prescribe it for me. I don't care how much it costs."
"Have you really thought it through? Martial arts must be studied and practiced diligently. Taking medicine can only be icing on the cake, not a long-term solution."
Weng Zening hesitated for a moment, and finally made up his mind and said, "Please prepare the medicine for me, young lady."
Luo Chen nodded: "Okay, five thousand taels. It will require a thousand-year-old snow lotus and a five-hundred-year-old fire daylily. These two will cost three thousand taels. Of course, if Lord Weng can find the prescription himself, just give me a labor fee."
Weng Zening couldn't find it anywhere, so he could only give the money directly to Luo Chen and let her prepare it.
He first gave Luo Chen a deposit of one thousand taels, and immediately went back to collect the remaining four thousand taels of silver. He still had more than three thousand taels in his hand, and there were still several hundred taels missing, so he had to sell some things to get the money together. He could earn money again if he lost it, but he could not do without improving his martial arts.
Luo Chen asked him to come and get the medicine in a month.
Watching Weng Zening leave contentedly, Luo Chen sneered and put away the silver.
The next day, Ding Chengjue came and said, "I heard that Weng Zening came to see you. What kind of difficult and complicated disease did he have?"
Luo Chen hasn't seen Ding Chengjue for some time.
"Why do you ask?"
Ding Chengjue said embarrassedly: "I, well, we are such good friends that I won't hide it from you. You know I like Feiyan, but Feiyan seems to like that Weng Zening, so I have a crush on him."
Luo Chen said with a joking smile: "Are you planning to kill him while he's sick?"
"Of course not. I just want to know what disease he has so that I can check for Feiyan. What if he has some infectious disease and infects Feiyan?"
Luo Chen was amused by him: "He is not sick, he just asked me to prescribe a prescription to improve his internal strength."
"Ah? You can just practice on your own, why do you need to take medicine?"
"Who knows? Maybe he has too much money to spend. He spent five thousand taels to prepare a medicine." Luo Chen.
Ding Chengjue said thoughtfully: "Five thousand taels for one pill."
Before, I didn't have money to buy medicine for Wang Tong, and I had to plot against him. Why is he buying such expensive medicine now when nothing is wrong? Also, where did his money come from? Could it be that he got it through corruption and abuse of power? Thinking of this, Ding Chengjue became excited and quickly said goodbye to Luo Chen.
