Who? How could Mr. Qi, who was running rampant in the world of Jiankang medicine, be so rude? Could it be that he is from the government
Holding such a large gathering has naturally been reported to the government, but they only came before the game to express encouragement. After all, this kind of medicine gathering is only for experts, and laymen can't see the excitement.
Baohe Hall is still the medicine enshrinement hall of Taiyuan Hospital. Maybe it's people from there. These people and the pharmacists don't care about these things, so they took one look and threw them away.
Not long after, President Qi came back and still sat down, but he was a little lost and restless. His eyes kept glancing to the next door, as if he wished he could see through the past, and he remained silent about the topic of Mrs. Gu's temporary dressing change that everyone was discussing.
The person in that room must have an extraordinary status. The old pharmacist present here all knew it in his mind. Since he didn't say anything, everyone knew it and didn't ask.
As the night went by, the onlookers gradually dispersed, but a large number of people still stayed in place, waiting for the critical moment to decide the ranking of participating pharmacists.
"I'm old. I can't compete with you young people. I have to relax for a while..." Mr. Kang rubbed his neck and stood up.
Then three or four pharmacists also stood up and left to rest.
After looking at Mr. Qi who was still sitting upright with a solemn expression, Mr. Kang had already left long ago. Mr. Kang murmured in his heart. He stepped out and looked at the next door from the corner of his eye while looking up at the night sky.
The door next door was wide open. It was no different from theirs. It was a good angle to see the action in the field. There were no servants or other people standing around. Dim lights came from inside, illuminating the blurred figures of the three people. There are two people standing on the left and right, and one person sitting crookedly in the middle.
The person standing on the right, Mr. Kang, recognized Wang Yiyi at a glance, and his eyes couldn't help but turn to the center of curiosity.
The man seemed to be tired from sitting. He slightly stretched his body and changed his posture, and his face was revealed under the light cast from the side. Before Mr. Kang could see his face clearly, he seemed to notice someone peeping and glanced over.
At that moment, Mr. Kang felt dazzled and subconsciously lowered his gaze.
That look was like that of a lofty god, with an aura that was completely alien to people like them.
really…
Kang Lao didn't dare to look up anymore and hurriedly walked past the door.
As the night deepened, some of the onlookers left, the noise of the day finally subsided, and the pharmacists in the field also changed from being busy to being calm.
Liu Jian soaked the last piece of Cyperus rotundus and red-flowered black plum into the salt water, finally exhaled, and turned his eyes to Gu Shiba Niang.
It was different from other wooden sheds. There was a full circle of lights, which illuminated the inside and outside so that any movement she made could be clearly seen.
She was cooking something, her expression was focused and her movements were smooth and skillful.
"Are you still frying it now?" Liu Jian frowned slightly. The ingredients of Cyperus rotundus pills are indeed fried, such as white peony root, Atractylodes macrocephala, date kernel, cornus meat, etc., but the preparation of Cyperus rotundus pills is not fried. Hasn't she started making cyperus rotunda by now
Liu Jian raised his head and looked at the sky. The east was already faintly white.
When daylight came up, the crowd rushed to the square again, asking questions about those who had not left.
"How's it going? Has anyone finished it?"
The focus is naturally Gu Shiba Niang.
Kang Lao walked to the side hall and passed by the next door. He saw that the door was still open, but this time he did not dare to pay any attention to it. His senses told him that the three people inside were still there.
Did you spend the entire night watching this
Mr. Kang couldn't hide the surprise in his heart, but when he entered the room and saw Mr. Qi's red eyes after staying up all night, he was no longer surprised.
"Someone has handed over the medicine." Someone outside shouted, which made everyone cheer up.
"Not bad, not bad." Although several pharmacists were strict, they could not help but nod in praise at this time.
When the first ray of sunshine fell, time suddenly flew by like quicksand. As the end time approached more and more, many pharmacists who were still in the last few steps were covered with sweat on their foreheads.
I have been up for half a day and a night, and it would be really frustrating if I failed at this last moment.
This time, the pharmacist's name was not blurred like in the first scene, but was shouted loudly.
As each pharmacist's name was called out, the medicines prepared by each were neatly placed on the long table in front of the Medicine King's Hall.
It's less than an hour away from the end.
Among the loud registration calls outside, Gu Shiba Niang’s name was not heard.
"Could this be the last time?" Several pharmacists whispered in low voices.
"I think this time it's really going to be the end..." Gu Lingyun said slowly, looking outside, there were only a few pharmacists left in the huge square.
At this time, the remaining pharmacists were doing the final touches, but there was one person who was busy, the fire was strong and the steam was rising.
Being busy at this time is not a pleasant thing to look at.
At this time, almost all eyes were on Gu Shiba Niang. Because her name was obscured in the previous scene, many people did not know that Gu Ba Niang was the last to hand over the medicine. Therefore, everyone was surprised when they saw this scene.
In any case, she is also Liu Gong's apprentice. If she can't be the first to hand over the medicine, she should be close to it, but she hasn't finished it yet...
"The time is coming..." Wang Zhangyi stared at the people in the field and held his hands tightly.
The medicine was handed over at the end of the first game, and the medicine was temporarily changed in the middle of the second game. Is this girl specially here to add tension to the big medicine meeting
"People say that slow work yields meticulous work. Madam Gu's work must be better than those people's..."
A low but still high-pitched voice came from the side, "We don't understand this, Mr. Wang, shopkeeper, you are an expert, don't you think so?"
Wang Yiyi twitched the corner of his mouth, and his eyes subconsciously fell on the person leaning on the long cave in the middle.
He was wrapped in a thick and spacious red purple robe, and the white fox fur hat of the jumpsuit hid his entire face, only the high bridge of his nose was exposed. From Wang Yiyi's angle, it was unclear who this person was. Sleep or wake.
"Pharmaceuticals are moderately expensive... It is the principle that slow work results in careful work... However, being able to prepare pills in such a short time also requires perfect skills... As the saying goes, practice makes perfect..." Wang Zhangyi said vaguely.
It not only admits that slow work results in careful work, but also shows that quick medicine is also an ability. Of course, this ability requires the accumulation of experience. In this case, Mrs. Gu can be justified whether she wins or loses...
A chuckle rang out, and the person on the couch slowly stood up, his robe hung down, he stretched out a slender hand and took off his hat, revealing a young and handsome face.
"Prince..." Wang Zhang lowered his head with a slightly red face. In front of this young man who was so many years younger than himself, he always felt that he could not hide his inner thoughts.
Is this the innate ability of royal dignitaries to control the hearts of their subjects
"As long as it is prepared on time, it doesn't seem to make any difference whether it is faster or slower." He said slowly.
"No." Huang Huang immediately smiled and asked cautiously, "Prince, you haven't rested this night, why don't we go back and relax for a while..."
Prince Wenjun waved his hand and reclined on the couch again, putting an arm under his head and looking out the door.
"I can go anywhere..." He said softly, stopping at the end of his words, "I'm taking a rest here..."
Waiter Huang had no choice but to respond and said nothing.
Wang Zhangyi's eyes quietly swept across Prince Wenjun's face, and his expression turned out to be even worse than before.
"What does the prince want to use?" he asked in a low voice.
Prince Wenjun thought for a moment and said, "That's fine, just bring me a pot of tea."
Wang Yiyi hurriedly responded, "I'll prepare it for the king myself..." He lowered his hands and stepped back.
As soon as he left the house, Waiter Huang followed him out.
"Add some wild ginseng..." he whispered.
Wang Zhangyi felt frightened but did not dare to show it, and hurriedly lowered his head.
At this moment, a bell rang in the field. Accompanied by the ringing of the bell, exclamations rang out from all around, mixed with loud boos. All eyes were focused on the only figure in the field.
And at the moment when the bell rang, Gu Shiba Niang's hand left the last piece of cyperus sautee.
The pharmacists who had already begun to evaluate the medicines, but their eyes were on Gu Shiba Niang, couldn't help but breathe heavily.
Ignoring the commotion around them, Peng Yizhen and Ah Si Deng Er raised their hands to wipe the sweat from their foreheads.
"It's okay, okay, I finally finished it in time, otherwise..." Peng Yizhen patted his chest and said with lingering fear.
Not to mention competing for the top spot, Liu Gong's disciple was directly eliminated without even being qualified to be evaluated. That was really embarrassing and humiliating.
If that were the case, Tumo Xingzi could drown her in an instant. . . . . .
"Gu Xiang of Jiankang Prefecture, medicine."
With this call, Gu Shiba Niang's medicine was placed at the end of the long table, and Mr. Qi and others took a deep look at her.
Gu Shiba Niang nodded to them and bowed, and exited the arena under the gazes of everyone.
"Everyone, pharmacists, thank you for your hard work. The drug competition is over. Please go and rest first. The evaluation results will be announced in half a day." President Qi's voice was a little hoarse, but his spirit was unusually high. He waved his hands and said loudly.
After these two games, I had not slept for two days and two nights. Coupled with the high level of mental stress, many pharmacists were actually helped out the moment they handed over the medicine.
Although I say that, it has been so long, and it is not less than half a day. What's more, this evaluation is completely open, which means that everyone can come forward and take a look. Of course, the tenth person is responsible for scoring. After the pharmacist read it.
You must know that this is not the finished Qizhi Xiangfu Pills, but the most important state before the Qizhi Xiangfu Pills are completed. An experienced pharmacist can completely analyze the processing technology through this viewing. This is a rare opportunity. Who is willing to miss the opportunity
Therefore, after saying these words, the crowd did not disperse, but instead surged forward.
Gu Shiba Niang hesitated for a moment and did not move forward. As a result, she was already very clear in her heart.
"Ms. Gu!" Xin Chao Ling waved to her from afar.
Dayou Sheng had already prepared a resting place for her and prepared refreshments, and Mrs. Cao was sitting there, but looking at her with a worried and distressed expression.
Gu Shiba Niang smiled tiredly, picked up Lingbao, who was almost unable to walk, and headed over there.
Wang Yiyi stood outside the door, his eyes never leaving Gu Shiba Niang, always worried about how to say a word to her, and now he saw her walking backwards in the crowd towards the outside.
"Hey..." Wang Zhangzhang couldn't help shouting and raised his hand at the same time.
A light cough came from the room. Although the sound was not loud, it made Wang Yiyi immediately silence and turn around and walk in quickly.
"I came here to have half a day's leisure, not to meet anyone." Prince Wen said calmly and took a sip of tea.
"Yes, I know." Wang Yiyi bowed quickly and replied, lowering his head, but a trace of disapproval flashed on his face.
Without this person, how would a dignified prince think of taking a break here
The noise did not affect the ten pharmacists in front of the Medicine King's Hall. Although the number of pharmacists was reduced by half in this competition, the number of medicines increased a lot. Any slight mistake in any one step or step would affect the entire medicine, so the ten people's His expression was very solemn, and the speed of tasting was much slower than the previous one.
It's still a ten-point system, and it's still scored by ten people. The difference is that the scores are announced as soon as they are finished and hung high together with the pharmacist's name.
This kind of banner with names and scores written on it is a special red background with gold characters. It is exquisitely made and is enough for the pharmacists to take home for future generations to admire. Of course, this is for those pharmacists who are ranked high.
As time flies, more and more banners are hung in front of the Medicine King's Palace. Every time a banner is hung up, it will cause cheers or boos, and then many people will flock to the pharmacist's medicine, looking at it randomly for both insiders and outsiders. Together.
"...What happened to my medicine? What happened to my medicine?" A pharmacist in his forties waved his hands excitedly with a gloomy face, looking at the high-hanging banner, which was as big as his name. The characters are eye-catching.
This reaction was not uncommon, and there was a round of jeers from those around him.
"...Mom, you old guys are so dim-sighted..." The pharmacist was even more stimulated by the laughter and simply cursed.
Before he finished speaking, countless fists came at him. He joked and scolded the old pharmacists on the stage for seeking death, and was quickly thrown out.
"The cooked ground has not been steamed with ginger juice or stir-fried with vinegar and yuanhu. It's all charcoal... Even I, who am not a pharmacist, can tell that. You still have the nerve to ask." Young men from several medicine shops standing nearby He shouted with his arms akimbo and spat a few times, "This kind of thing can make it to the second game..."
These words caused everyone to laugh and curse again. This pharmacist's name was completely remembered. From now on, he could no longer hope to make a living in the pharmaceutical world.
Naturally, Xin Chaoling would not let go of the excitement. He followed the people and yelled a lot before standing back with unfinished thoughts.
"Liu Jian still has the highest score." Xin Chaoyang said softly, looking at the pennant fluttering in the wind. The pennant was ranked first, and the score above was also the first, ninety.
"Isn't it just ninety..." Xin Chaoling didn't care, "What's the matter with ninety? Last time, he was also ninety. As soon as our Lady Gu came out, he left alone..."
As he spoke, he looked back. There were too many people coming to watch the competition. It was not easy to get a good resting place in the huge Yaowang Temple, so the conditions were a bit shabby. There was a cloth shed with green curtains hanging down, and a beauty couch inside. At this moment, Gu Shiba Niang was taking a nap with her eyes closed.
Gu Shiba Niang was not asleep. She also heard Xin Chaoling's words, and an unknown smile appeared on her lips.
As expected, the score was no higher than Liu Jian's. As the number of banners increased, the number of unevaluated medicines on the stage decreased, and the atmosphere became more and more enthusiastic, with some solemnity in the enthusiasm.
The ranking of pharmacists from this session of the Grand Pharmacy Association will be released soon.
"Am I going to be the first?" Liu Jian, who was surrounded by people sent by countless medicine shops, stood up from the bench at this time, unable to hide his nervousness, "Am I going to be the first?"
This sentence echoed in his heart repeatedly, and his eyes were fixed on the ten pharmacists moving slowly on the stage. He felt that they were walking extremely slowly, and thought that they would never reach the last medicine. I was eager to know the results, but I was afraid of the pain of knowing the results, and my palms were covered with sweat.
Everyone watching from the sidelines knew that Madam Gu was the last to hand over the medicine, but because he had been paying attention, he knew that Madam Gu had changed the dressing midway. Changing the dressing meant that there was something wrong with her preparation and she had to find another way. But There are strict processing rules for Qizhi Xiangfu Wan. If it is changed, can it still be called Qizhi Xiangfu Wan? . . . .
He had never been so close to victory. . . . . .
Mr. Kang was the first to stop in front of the last medicine. He took a deep breath unconsciously and glanced at the dense pile of different prepared medicines in front of him.
This portion is obviously much more medicine than others. . . . .
How much more? Mr. Kang counted silently subconsciously.
"The ingredients are nineteen flavors. This one is the same as everyone else's... this Cyperus rotunda... wine made from vinegar and salt water made from urine... Hey... this is..." Mr. Kang said silently. I thought to myself, glanced at these medicines, and my expression paused.
"What are these?" Other pharmacists also came over, and one of them reached out and dipped his hand in a medicine bowl, "This is cumin... cumin and cyperus..."
"What are you doing? Stir-fried black gardenia and cyperus with radish and cyperus juice..."
The pharmacists gathered around, looked around, and whispered.
But Mr. Kang, who was standing there first, stopped moving at this time, and his expression changed.
Because when it came to the last dose, which was also the one that determined the final outcome, the whole place fell silent, and all eyes were focused on the ten pharmacists.
Xin Chaoyang's usually calm face also fluctuated slightly, and the knuckles of the hand holding the tea cup turned white from the exertion.
"Hurry up and tell me what you're looking for. It's definitely a perfect score." Xin Chao Ling looked relaxed and whistled.
Xin Chaoyang couldn't help but look back, the curtains were opened, and Gu Shiba Niang was still reclining on the beauty's couch with her eyes closed, her expression calm, as if she was sleeping.
That means the victory is certain. . . . .
Xin Chaoyang sighed softly.
"Jiankang Mansion, Gu Xiang, no points."
A voice suddenly fell across the audience.
"What?"
When this voice sounded, everything in front of the crowded Yaowang Palace fell silent, so quiet that almost everyone stopped breathing.
Everyone's expressions were astonished, their mouths wide open, and they looked at the ten pharmacists on the stage in disbelief.
A banner was slowly hoisted, and a gust of wind blew. The four words "Gu Xiang, Wu Fen" were particularly clear.
"This has no points... What points is it?" Someone was the first to react and asked stammeringly.
"Yes...it means that the medicine is too good...there are no points to score..." Xin Chaoling said with a strange expression, while looking around, trying to get approval, "Is this the case? mean?"
He was met with silence and a blank stare.
"I declare that the first place in the Great Medicine Fair is Jianning Mansion, Liu Clan." In the strange silence, Chairman Qi's hoarse voice came to the conclusion of this Great Medicine Fair.
With a bang, the whole place was boiling, and it also drowned out the second, third, and so on that President Qi read next.
"I am number one, I am number one." Liu Jian screamed and punched the pillar next to him, causing a bruise immediately.
But the sting of the moment made him laugh loudly.
This is not a dream, this is not a dream, it is real
"Congratulations to Mr. Liu, congratulations to Mr. Liu." Countless people suddenly came over and drowned Liu's money.
Xin Chaoling was completely stunned, and the tea cup in his hand fell to the ground and broke into pieces.
Xin Chaoyang's expression changed drastically. He turned his head. In the green curtain, Gu Shiba was slowly opening her eyes, with a faint smile hanging on her lips.
"Eighteenth Mother..." He walked over, because what happened was so unexpected that he, who was always eloquent, didn't know what to say.
"It's finally over." Gu Shiba Niang sat up, rubbed her neck, and smiled at him, "The fight should be held tomorrow, right? You can have a good rest tonight."
"Eighteenth Mother..." Xin Chaoyang looked at her and suddenly stretched out his hand.
Gu Shiba Niang was startled. This hand with a warm breath held her hanging hair back, and then quickly withdrew it. Gu Ba Niang thought that it was her illusion.
"Eighteen Mother, you and I... and our great lives..." Xin Chaoyang said softly.
Gu Shiba Niang looked at him with astonishment on her tired face, and then she smiled heartily.
"Ha, ha," she smiled, "Thank you very much, young master."
As she spoke, she nodded and gave a slight salute.
Under this situation, she actually smiled so freely and naturally. Is this girl able to conceal her emotions so well? "Let's go, thank the ten pharmacists for their hard work, and then go home to rest." Gu Shiba Niang said as she walked past him and walked out.
As soon as Gu Shiba Niang appeared in front of everyone, countless eyes looked over instantly, and the mocking sneer and disdain made even Xin Chao Ling, who had never known what shame was, feel frightened.
"You are Liu Gong's disciple, you are so embarrassed..."
"I thought it was so awesome..."
"Does a little girl think that the preparation of medicinal materials is just for fun..."
"It's a pity, it's a pity, Mr. Liu's reputation is about to be ruined..."
The whispers around him suddenly flew over like flakes. They were whispers, but they were not whispers at all.
In this world, awe can only be obtained by relying on one's own ability and strength, especially in the medicine world. No matter whose disciple you are or which famous family you come from, without real skills, you will never get the respect of others.
Lingbao's eyes were red and tears had fallen. He would have blamed himself, if it hadn't been for the rice of swill that slipped down. . . . . She is useless and will only be a nuisance to the young lady. . . . .
Gu Shiba Niang looked indifferent, turning a blind eye to everything around her, and walked towards the stage. Wherever she went, the crowd automatically gave way to a way.
Liu Jianzheng took the banner from President Qi and tried hard to look modest, but he couldn't suppress his joy and excitement, and his words were a little incoherent.
Surrounded by everyone, he walked off the stage and met Gu Shiba Niang face to face.
"Ms. Gu..." He took the initiative to say hello, with a soft smile on his face, "You did a good job..."
Gu Shiba Niang looked up at him, smiled, and suddenly said: "Have you seen my medicine?"
Liu Jian didn't expect her to ask such a question. In fact, he had never seen it. This girl was indeed still young and she couldn't even hear the polite words.
"What I did was okay." Gu Shiba Niang replied with a smile.
This was too much to say and everyone around rolled their eyes when they heard it.
With such a master, he is naturally more arrogant than ordinary people. Liu Jian didn't care, but smiled with a bit of the generosity of a winner.
Here, President Qi and others waved to Gu Shiba Niang.
"Ms. Gu, you are really good at your craftsmanship..." Mr. Kang's deep voice came.
Liu Jian and others, who had already turned to leave, were startled when they heard this and turned to look.
This, is this a polite remark for Liu Gong's sake
"After all, the article was wrong, so I still lost." Gu Shiba Niang nodded and smiled.
"Sure enough, famous teachers give birth to great disciples... You did a good job..." Mr. Kang sighed and nodded at Gu Shiba Niang, "Your master really did not misjudge the person..."
These words made everyone around him stunned. The noise was suppressed, and their eyes turned back and forth on Gu Shiba Niang and these pharmacists.
Why don't these pharmacists look sad and regretful? This is Liu Gong's apprentice. Liu Gong's apprentice has lost such a big face. Why do they still say such things
I don't know who reacted first, but more and more people rushed to Gu Shiba Niang's portion of medicine.
"What's this?"
"How come there are so many Cyperus cyperus?"
"This is....."
"This is... Jiu Zhi is Jiu Zhi Xiangfu Pills..." A pharmacist exclaimed.
This sentence was unintentionally like thunder, causing the expressions of those around to hear it to suddenly stiffen.
Jiu Zhi Jiu Zhi Xiangfu Pills
"It's impossible..." Liu Jian walked up to Gu Shiba Niang's medicine and was stunned. "... It's impossible..."
In a short period of time, the seven systems have become complicated. How can we do the nine systems
He almost rushed in, his eyes fell on the neat bowl of nine-part cyperus juice, and his expression was shocked.
The news spread quickly, and the whole place was in an uproar.
Gu Shiraniang, who had already walked away from here, stopped slightly and looked back behind her. Only then did a smile of relief appear on her face, and she let out a breath. At least, she looked defeated.
Master, I have not embarrassed you. . . . . .
After hearing the news, Xin Chaoling danced excitedly.
"I'm going to say it, I'm going to say it, Madam Gu will never lose. As soon as Madam Gu makes a move, the ninety points will have to cool down." He laughed and put his arms around the maid, in front of everyone, and kissed her delicate body. A firm kiss on the cheek.
"Nine systems..." Xin Chaoyang murmured, his expression changed several times, he struck hard with both palms, and laughed, but this smile was full of self-deprecation.
Xin Chaoyang, Xin Chaoyang, you also have such a stupid day
Wang Yiyi brought the news to him immediately.
"Oh, it's so awesome, it's really not the first, it's better than the first." Huang Huang clapped his hands in a somewhat exaggerated way.
Prince Wen stood up.
"This girl is very good at bluffing people..." He said with a slight smile on his face, stretched out his hand to cover the dark hat, and then walked away.
