Chapter 146 Medical Sage VS Sage Apothecary
When the military doctor saw this immortal-like character, he immediately stared at the Medical Sage with a fanatical look of a fan seeing his idol. His face flushed with excitement, and he took a stance of itching to pounce on him. The Medical Sage! How many incurable diseases has he treated and how many lives has he snatched from King Yama? With his accurate diagnosis, this God of medicine was at the height that all doctors in the world looked up to!
”Junior Brother Zheng, you are my junior brother after all, so I should be responsible for your actions. I cannot let you degrade the reputation of our late master and your old parents! Get out of the way and let me check the patient.” Medical Sage was filled with curiosity.
Although his junior brother was sometimes unreliable, he has one advantage — And that was he would never recklessly say something. It was just that Hua Tuo’s divine skills were the legendary treasures of doctors after all. His junior brother couldn’t possibly have gotten lucky and learned it, right?
Sage Apothecary’s face was flushed with anger, along with an insulted expression: “Who are you thinking is degrading Master’s name? You can’t go in. Don’t even think about burying a step in this door until you get your story straight.”
Old General Chu was terribly anxious! He desperately wanted to see how his grandson was doing at this time, but he couldn’t enter when the two old men stopped him at the door! Look at these two grandpas. Their combined age was close to 140 years, but why was their fighting power still so strong? The moment they met, they couldn’t stop pinching each other. Weren’t they tired of it?!
The Medical Sage’s eagerness to see Hua Tuo’s divine skills was even more urgent than that of Old General Chu. He immediately showed a good-natured smile and said repeatedly, “Okay, okay! It was I, who spoke out of turn. You Senior brother apologizes to you, okay? Can you let me in now?”
For the first time, the Senior Brother Medical Sage conceded effortlessly that Sage Apothecary was stunned for a moment. However, he still snorted coldly, “You can enter if you want! But change your clothes outside. Also, do not disturb the patient after you enter.”
Medical Sage rolled his eyes: “I know this better than you. Do I need you to remind me?”
Medical Sate and Old General Chu put on sterile clothing, and Sage Apothecary sprayed some disinfectant on them before letting them enter the room. As for the military doctor and other idlers, even if they were dying to see the Major General, they could only request so again only when he was out of danger.
Medical Sage tugged at the strange clothing on his body curiously, snatched the disinfectant from Sage Apothecary’s hands too, poured a few drops in his palm, sniffed gently, and said at a loss, “What kind of medicine is this? Is this your new concoction? What’s the effect? “
”For sterilization and disinfection, give it back! Even if I tell you, you won’t understand!” Sage Apothecary grabbed his disciple’s potion back, snorted proudly, and said, “The patient’s body is very weak at the moment, and a little bit of dirty air can cause his wound to fester, which in turn threatens his life.”
”Oh…I see. It’s the same as rinsing the wound with spirits to prevent it from festering.” Medical Sage nodded vaguely and said, “Make more of this potion. It can be used in the military.”
”I told you that you won’t understand. You still refuse to admit it! This is not used on wounds. There are other medicines to disinfect wounds!” The expression on Sage Apothecary was really asking for a spanking. Medical Sage found him an eyesore, and wanted to pounce on him and scratch the smugness off his face.
”Shh — Master, keep your voice down!” Gu Ye, who was half asleep on the soft slump by the edge of the bed, was awakened by the two old men. She first checked the condition of her patient, and then whispered a warning to the pair of old brothers.
The two old men reacted in the same fashion. They both shrank their necks, pursed their lips, put one hand atop the other, and gave each other a disdainful glance. Seeing that their actions mirrored each other, they immediately harrumphed again, turned their heads away, and let the backs of their heads face each other.
Old General Chu bypassed the two naive old urchins and went to the edge of the bed. Seeing that his eldest grandson was breathing evenly and his face was much better, he breathed a sigh of relief. He sat on the edge of the bed and held his grandson’s hand tightly, still suffering a lingering fear — He almost lost such an outstanding grandson.
Medical Sage took measured steps to the Major General’s side, used his right hand to feel his pulse, frowned slightly, and a bit of confusion flashed in his eyes.
Seeing this, Old General Chu was struck with nervousness. He asked anxiously, “Medical Sage, what’s wrong with my grandson?”
”There is nothing wrong with his pulse. May I see his wound?” From his pulse alone, he gauged that the injured patient had been highly poisoned and lost a lot of blood. However, it was not life-threatening. Medical Sage had heard from the military doctors’ diagnosis before that he was dying. Even they weren’t not sure he could be saved. How could he, his junior brother who was disinterested in healing since he was a child, suddenly become so powerful?
