Poison Genius Consort 2: Emperor’s Swallow

Chapter 29: A bet must be won

Views:

Gu Feiyan absolutely doesn't trust the doctor who gives up his life so easily.

She must first check whether the combination and dosage of the medicinal materials on this prescription are reasonable, otherwise even if there is ephedra, it will be useless!

Fortunately, this prescription is still worth deciding.

After Gu Feiyan confirmed that there was nothing wrong with the prescription, she still stared at the prescription. She seemed to be checking the prescription, but she was actually concentrating and trying to use her mind to order the small medicine cauldron. Regardless of the quality of ephedra, Xiaoyao Ding has a lot of it. If the little medicine cauldron can be more powerful, things will be very easy to handle. If not, she can only go to the mountains to find it.

Seeing this, the military doctor quickly asked Vice General Zhou what was going on in a low voice. When Deputy General Zhou said that Gu Feiyan had ephedra, the military doctor was overjoyed, "I can't go wrong with this prescription. Guyao girl, you actually have medicine on your body, so hurry up and take it out. The only thing missing now is ephedra!"

Gu Feiyan ignored the military doctor.

She worked hard to concentrate and use her thoughts, hoping that Xiao Yaoding could perceive her thoughts. It's a pity that Xiaoyaoding is still on strike, and there is no response at all.

Gu Feiyan didn't waste any more time, and said seriously to Cheng Yifei, "I don't have ephedra, but I can go to the forest to find it!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned.

Cheng Yifei quickly showed displeasure, "Okay, brat, you lied to this general! You went out, can you come back?"

"I'm not kidding you, can you let me go and bring me here? Life is at stake, I don't have time to joke with you. It's necessary to find medicine, but, now I have to..."

Before Gu Feiyan finished speaking, Guo Junyi said solemnly, "Guyao girl, you are clearly lying to the general! Although there are many medicinal materials in the mountains and forests, ephedra is an expensive thing. It has been picked and sold in autumn when it is at its most luxuriant. It’s all gone. It’s winter and night, how can you find it? If there is really ephedra, can this old man still watch this soldier die?”

Gu Feiyan originally didn't want to talk nonsense with this quack doctor, but when she heard such high-sounding words, she was really angry.

She seriously asked, "Doctor Guo, have you looked for it?"

Doctor Guo Jun said confidently, "If it had been a month earlier, I would have gone up the mountain to look for it. Now, it is absolutely impossible to find it, and going up the mountain is futile."

Gu Feiyan sneered, "Doctor Guo, do you dare to guarantee with your life that ephedra is 100% impossible to find in this huge mountain forest?"

Doctor Guo seriously explained, "The lonely girl, there are indeed many medicinal materials in the back mountains, but the medicine of ephedra is absolutely impossible to stay until now. The old man has been to this mountain forest last month, and it has long been..."

Gu Feiyan interrupted forcefully, "You don't need to talk so much nonsense, I just ask you if you dare to bet with me, if I find Mahuang, you will kill yourself in public?"

Dr. Guo took a deep breath, "Little girl, you! What are you talking about? There is nothing wrong with you wanting to find ephedra, but you can't talk like that, you are making unreasonable words, you..."

Gu Feiyan interrupted again forcefully, "Human life is at stake, I'm not in the mood to talk to you! I only care about whether you find medicine or not!"

Doctor Guo was furious, "You girl clearly want to change the subject and fool everyone! Take less..."

Gu Feiyan interrupted for the third time, "Doctor Guo, let me ask you this question. Do you dare to take the life of this soldier as a guarantee that there is no ephedra in this forest?"

Doctor Guo didn't react for a while, "I, I..."

Gu Feiyan continued to interrupt forcefully, "How dare you! Isn't your current attitude just betting on other people's lives? Although this soldier's situation is urgent, with your acupuncture skills, you can at least last until noon tomorrow. , Isn’t it? From now to noon tomorrow, there are still a few hours. Why do you give up looking for medicinal materials based on experience? Just because it is someone else’s life, not your own, do you dare to bet like this?”

"I, I didn't mean that!" Dr. Guo Jun angrily tried to explain but couldn't, "I, I..."

Gu Feiyan was even more angry than him, "Mr. Guo, the patient is betting on life and death with the king of hell. We who are doctors are gamblers and bettors. We can never bet on death, we must bet on life, and work hard to bet on life! With so much time, how could you plan to give up before the last moment? Just because he is just a cook?"

Doctor Guo Jun couldn't argue with Gu Feiyan, and finally became angry from embarrassment, and asked, "Guyao girl, as a medicine girl, you should know that not every kind of medicinal material can be picked and used directly. Ephedra is used as a medicine. Fangzi is different, what is needed is honey-roasted ephedra. Even if you can dig up ephedra, do you know how to honey-roast, and can you have time?"

Either Gu Feiyan would not speak, but if she did speak, she would definitely convince people.

She asked back, "Mahuang has the best effect on relieving asthma. Even if there is no honey roast, it still has a great effect on relieving asthma. At least you can buy time to get the medicine from the city. Besides, even if it doesn't work, at least you did your best. Isn't it?"

Dr. Guo Jun was upright at first, but after being questioned by Gu Feiyan, he finally felt guilty. It's just that he doesn't want to admit it. If he admits that he was wrong, what will General Cheng think of him, and what will the soldiers think of him? How can he stay in the future

Doctor Guo hesitated for a moment, and quickly said to Cheng Yifei, "General Cheng, if it wasn't for honey-roasting ephedra, it would be useless if the medicine didn't work. The military conditions are limited, how can honey-roasting medicine be so easy? This stinky girl is so eloquent. Accusing me is just trying to escape."

Cheng Yifei is an outsider and knows nothing. He looked at Guo Junyi, then at Gu Feiyan, as if he was thinking about how to choose.

Doctor Guo hesitated for a while, and gave it all up, "General Cheng, I dare to guarantee with my life that there is no ephedra in this mountain forest!"

Cheng Yifei rubbed his chin lightly, looked at Doctor Guo seriously, still thinking about it.

Gu Feiyan was inconceivable, and directly angrily said, "Cheng Yifei, if you don't try hard, even if you guarantee your life, it will be invalid! If you are afraid of me escaping, you can go up the mountain with me! I believe that you are a general. You will only allow your soldier to die on the battlefield, and will not allow him to die easily in the tent! Even if he is just a cooking soldier!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned, and the huge tent suddenly fell silent.

No one had ever dared to speak to Cheng Yifei so loudly in the barracks, and no one had dared to call him by his first and last name like this. However, what really shocked everyone was not the three words "Cheng Yifei", but the following sentence!

A soldier can only die on the battlefield, not in a tent!

Cheng Yifei was also startled, he didn't expect this weak little girl to be able to say such sonorous and powerful words.

Just say this to her, and he will believe her!

He immediately ordered, "Deputy General Zhou, prepare torches, find some elite soldiers to clear the way, and go up the mountain to find medicine!"

Gu Feiyan finally breathed a sigh of relief secretly, she hurriedly said, "Wait, give me a pen and paper first."

Doctor Guo was resentful at first, so he looked over after hearing this.

Pen and paper

What else is this little girl going to do
