Chapter 213: Chapter 124 Medicine God Changsheng

Gu Changsheng’s words undoubtedly added fuel to the fire.

Instantly, chaos ensued below.

“Not use superior materials to press down superior materials? Then what should we use?”

“What should we use?”

“…”

Before everyone could finish murmuring, a refreshing scent of medicine wafted over, stronger and more aromatic than before…

People couldn’t help but close their eyes and slowly inhale this scent.

No sooner had the fragrance entered their noses than Hu Bingzhi’s body staggered and he fell backward.

Fortunately, Jiao Fangyi was standing right behind him, blocking his backward fall. Otherwise, the fall would have been severe.

But at this moment, everyone’s attention was not on them but was fixed unblinkingly on the display platform!

That gaze was fervent, like hungry wolves!

Gu Changsheng raised his eyebrows, signaling the medicine appraisers and merchants to announce the result.

The medicine appraisers and merchants, however, stood there agape, looking fiercely several times and inhaling deeply before collectively stepping back two steps.

“This… this…”

“What is this? What kind of grade are these materials? You must tell us!” the medicine appraisers and merchants exclaimed excitedly, but the onlookers below were frantic, all rushing towards the display platform.

Such a spectacle scared the medicine appraisers into waving their hands repeatedly and looking at each other, finally stating, “We… we cannot discern…”

“Yikes!”

At this utterance, a loud uproar burst from below.

The medicine appraisers came from major pharmaceutical families. Each was broad-minded and keen-eyed, known as having fiery eyes!

Yet even so, there were medicines they could not identify!

They could not identify!

When even the medicine appraisers from the Medicine Chamber of Commerce could not identify a medicine, what grade could that medicine be?

The scene suddenly fell into a stiff silence so quiet you could hear a pin drop, and no one dared to breathe loudly.

“Elder Yhan…”

The pharmacists looked to Elder Yhan for help, not daring to make a judgment, but Elder Yhan certainly could!

Everyone held their breath, braced for his assessment.

Gu Changsheng yawned repeatedly, uninvolved in the matter.

For a moment, an eerie silence prevailed, bewilderingly tightening the grip on everyone’s chests…

Most nervous of all were Jiao Fangyi and Hu Bingzhi! One had a million taels of silver for a wager, and the other had a mission to beat Gu Changsheng. Gu Changsheng had already shocked everyone by refining superior medicinal materials, but if she… then the competition could spiral out of control!

With everyone eagerly waiting, Elder Yhan, supported by other pharmacists, slowly stepped onto the display platform, each step deliberate and slow, as if every step was sacred.

A fragrance that touched the soul… he had never in his life smelled such pure and rich aroma.

If superior medicinal materials were only inferior goods, then…

Elder Yhan stopped in front of the display table, furrowing his brows as he looked into the opened second medicine jar. Upon seeing its contents, he was shocked, his body beginning to tremble violently as he grasped the small jar, his lips moving but no sound came out…

After a while, when the crowd was almost suffocating, Elder Yhan finally gathered his senses and tremblingly stretched out his hands. He carefully took out a piece of Panax Pseudoginseng, treasuring and gradually placing it in his trembling lips.

The observer’s appearance changed, the watcher’s spirits changed, but what about the taster?

Soon, Elder Yhan physically demonstrated the reaction of the taster, his hair turning white and his body shaking with joy beyond words, laughing wildly as if possessed.

“Hahaha… Life is worthwhile! I have lived for over eighty years, and seeing this today is worth a lifetime!”

“Top-grade medicinal materials! Top-grade medicinal materials…”

In the midst of Elder Yhan’s nearly mad cries, Gu Changsheng frowned slightly.

Misfortune indeed, a fine old man, could he have been driven mad by her stimulations?

What a curse!

“Top… grade… it’s actually top-grade!”

Someone, coming to their senses, was the first to shout loudly.

Hu Bingzhi collapsed at the sound! His speed was so fast, no one even managed to catch him—of course, no one cared to do so!

Compared to Hu Bingzhi, his nephew Hu Yihai fared much better. Likewise fainting, behind him, fortunately, was his son Hu Tiandong, who firmly supported his overwhelmed father.

The crowd went into a frenzy, rushing towards the display table except for Gu Changsheng, who yawned and stepped aside, giving Xiao Cui a knowing look.

Damn, foresight, foresight indeed! The nitroglycerin sure came in handy!

A couple of inexperienced ones, just because of refined medicinal materials could cause such a stir, what would happen once they recovered?

Wouldn’t they tear her apart?

Gu Changsheng felt that enjoying the pleasure of victory was important, but so was her frail body. Therefore, she decisively gave Xiao Cui a covering look and took off running!

Xiao Cui, who was feeding medicine to Hu Yihai, suddenly went pale. In such circumstances, her lady had run away!

She must have been exhausted from last night, she thought, going off to catch up on sleep…

The crowd, gone mad over the top-grade medicinal materials, was now completely focused on those legendary top-grade materials, completely ignoring the person who had refined them!

“The unparalleled, top-grade medicinal materials!”

“Don’t push, don’t push, what’s the hurry…”

“Who stepped on me!”

“…”

As Elder Yhan slowly opened the remaining three small medicine jars, the atmosphere suddenly froze again for an instant.

“Top-grade medicinal materials! Still top-grade medicinal materials! These are top-grade done with different refining techniques!”

As soon as Elder Yhan finished speaking, you could hear a pin drop in the silence that followed.

At this moment, Gu Changsheng was completely ignored.

You should know that some master medicine refiners specialize in refining only one kind of medicine throughout their lives, and it is remarkable for them to reach the level of a Superior Medicine Refiner.

But Gu Changsheng had used five different refining methods to refine one batch of superior medicinal materials and four batches of top-grade ones!

Top-grade quality! That was indeed top-grade quality!

Superior medicinal materials were already hard to come by; how could top-grade medicinal materials appear like free cabbages, suddenly producing four batches?

What were the odds of success?

Godfather! Strike them with heavenly thunder!

“These few Panax Pseudoginsengs, I, a pharmacist from Yuzhou, will take them all! 150,000 taels!”

As usual, the medicines presented at the Jiangnan Medical Debate Conference could be auctioned off right on the spot, and the highest bidder would take them!

Even if the specific methods of refining these top-grade medicinal materials were unknown, a seasoned medicine refiner studying the finished products could gain some insights; let alone a bit, even a trace would be a rare opportunity for any refiner!

“200,000 taels! You think your Medicine Chamber of Commerce in Yuzhou is the only one with deep pockets? I, from Jizhou, shall also compete this time!”

“250,000 taels!”

“300,000 taels!”

“…”

Barely recovered, Hu Yihai rolled his eyes fiercely, looking like he was about to faint again.

“Three… three hundred thousand taels!” Hu Tiandong was so astonished he could not even hold onto his father.

Yesterday was about snatching people, today it turned into snatching medicines!

Yesterday, it was increasing by ten thousand taels at a time; today, it shot up by fifty thousand taels at a time!

To the pharmacists, was silver not silver, all but straw?

In fact, Hu Tiandong’s thought was not far off; affecting the livelihoods, which great pharmacist in any region wasn’t backed by centuries of heritage? Their financial strength was so robust; it wouldn’t be far behind the National Treasury. Even so, when the Court engaged in wars, they had to go to the big pharmacists with silver in hand to request medicines.

This was simply not seeing silver as silver, looking at the onslaught of the price increase, there was a fierce vigor as if trying to pave a bloodied path with silver.

The surprise came too suddenly, and for a moment, the folk of Liuzhou Medical Guild were a bit lost as to where they were…

They originally came with the intention of definitely losing, to boost the morale for Lady Changsheng, right? And the outcome?

Lady Changsheng truly lived up to her reputation as a successor of Divine Acupuncture Skills, always bringing endless surprises!

“Recalling the past, Emperor Shennong, and seeing today, Medicine God Changsheng!”

Elder Yhan, with a voice full of age, shed tears as he dropped this sentence.

A single phrase stirred up a thousand waves, Lady Changsheng, undoubtedly deserved the name of Medicine God, Master of Top-grade Medicine Refining!

“Where is Lady Changsheng?”

Someone shouted this, and only then did people notice that Gu Changsheng, who had just been at the exhibition stage, had vanished without a trace!

Everyone was frantically searching everywhere!

At such an event, without the main character, how could the play go on?

Under the table, in the corners, they searched everywhere they could, but not even a shadow of Gu Changsheng was seen.

For a moment, everyone panicked!

“That’s the maid of Medicine God Lady Changsheng!”

It was unclear who with sharp eyes spotted Xiao Cui standing among the Liuzhou physicians, and suddenly everyone crowded towards her.

“Where is the Medicine God?”

“Where is Medicine God Changsheng?”

“Where is Medicine God Lady Changsheng?”

“…”

Voices bombarded her, and Xiao Cui, protected by the Liuzhou physicians behind her, turned crimson with fear as the enthusiastic barrage made her heart thud violently. Her lady had become a Medicine God?

“Well, my lady might, should, perhaps have gone home to sleep…”

Carefully making a statement, Xiao Cui immediately hid behind the Liuzhou physicians, the group’s eyes shining with intense fervor, too frightening!

“Sleeping? At a time like this?”

At a moment of glory, Medicine God Lady Changsheng had gone back to sleep?

Godfather!

“Make way! Make way!” Yuan Bao, leading a pair of guards, strenuously parted the crowd clustered like bees and, without a word, grabbed the beleaguered Xiao Cui and ran.

“Hurry, Xiao Cui, Lady Changsheng asked me to rescue you and send you back to the foot of Baili Mountain.”

“Where is my lady?”

“Your lady has long legged it; otherwise, she wouldn’t have sent me to cover the rear!” Yuan Bao hurriedly stuffed Xiao Cui into the carriage, cracked the whip, and the carriage sped away.

Leaving a group of pharmacists momentarily uncertain of what to do, once they regained their senses, the search commenced anew!

That was Medicine God! That was a moving mountain of gold and silver! Not to look for her would be foolish!
