Chapter 13: Poisonous Weed?
"Poisonous herb?" Wu Rui looked at the ginseng in his hand, momentarily speechless. On Earth, it was hailed as the king of herbs, and in the cultivation world, it was a spiritual object. Yet now, on this barbaric planet, it was being called a poison. Could it be that ginseng really was toxic?
Wu Rui's eyes were dazed.
“... isn't it?” Ah Niu also noticed the immortal's abnormality, and then carefully explained: “Our tribespeople tried to find herbs and tasted all kinds of grasses. After eating this poisonous grass, our mouths, noses, eyes, and ears would bleed, and we would die quickly. Since then, we didn't dare eat this poisonous grass again.”
Wu Rui suddenly realized that most ginseng is yang in nature, especially the high-quality ones. If ordinary people take it directly, not only will they not benefit from it, but it will also be poisonous. Ah Niu's physique is not weak, and his clansmen are probably not weak either. Otherwise, the hundred-year-old ginseng would not have had the effect of causing rapid bleeding and death through the seven orifices.
In other words, Ah Niu is not only a person who has participated in it, but also for many years.
Even if Wu Rui's mood was good, at this moment his heart was burning with anxiety, and he hastily asked Ah Niu: "Ah Niu, are there many people like that... poisonous weeds in your place?"
"Not many..." Ah Niu's reply made Wu Rui's expression stiffen, but before he could lose hope, Ah Niu added another sentence: "In our Rhinoceros Forest, because there are too many rhinos, these little grasses don't easily survive. Only in some remote places do they exist. We should be able to dig up a few thousand stalks! However, if the immortal can give me some time, I will definitely be able to dig up more for the immortal!"
Ah Niu saw that the immortal was very interested in this poisonous grass, and it was rare in his own Rhinoceros Forest, so he suddenly felt anxious.
"Cough, cough... how many? A few thousand?" Wu Rui's eyes were filled with tears. To know that the spiritual energy of the earth is now weak, forests have been developed and so on, ginseng is not uncommon, but almost all are artificially cultivated, truly wild ginseng has become extremely rare. Especially last year's Ling Shen, even in the cultivation world, it's a treasure. Ah Niu, this is great, one mountain alone has thousands of plants, and they seem to be from last year too.
Wu Rui's head suddenly felt hot, and he hastily smiled at Ah Niu, saying: "Ah Niu, as long as you provide me with a batch of this ginseng, I'll immediately cure your illness!"
"Wu Daifu Xianren..."
"Just call me Dr. Wu." Wu Rui interrupted Ah Niu's words.
"Wu... Wu Dafu, as long as you can cure my wound, I'll immediately go back and mobilize our tribesmen to dig up this ginseng for you!" Ah Niu excitedly stuttered.
"Alright, let's sign a contract first!" Wu Rui immediately smiled and then opened the clinic system with his mind.
It's strange to say, but the virtual screen in front of him seemed to be visible only to Wu Rui. Ah Niu felt that the immortal's eyes were deep and profound, as if he was casting a spell, and his expression became even more respectful.
As Wu Rui opened the clinic system screen, it was displaying a process interface, which was the third step of "Signing Agreement". The original page was a table with the title "Clinic Treatment Agreement" at the top and various clauses and notes below. The compensation item showed "One batch of ginseng".
After the mysterious and humanized diagnosis of the clinic, Wu Rui confirmed one of the 'print' options below. A sheet of unknown material paper slowly fell from the bottom of the virtual screen, and in Ah Niu's eyes, this paper seemed to appear out of thin air, which made him involuntarily clasp his hands together and repeatedly muttered "The power of the gods is boundless".
"Ah Niu, take a look at this contract first. If there's no problem, then sign your name below." Wu Rui placed the printed contract on Ah Niu's desk, his smile no longer that of a benevolent doctor, but more like a sly merchant.
Of course, Wu Rui did not actually cheat Ah Niu. Ginseng is priceless on earth, but in Ah Niu's eyes, it was just a weed that could be seen everywhere. The patient collected some wild herbs and treated the other party himself, so there was no question of fairness or unfairness. At least Wu Rui had no great pressure or guilt.
Ah Niu reverently received the "oracle" and looked at it according to the immortal's will. It was strange that the Olsen civilization only had simple and rough texts, but the agreement on which Wu Rui saw Chinese characters, and Ah Niu could actually understand them, not understanding the words, but understanding the meaning. In short, the miracle of Bitian Clinic can only be understood intuitively and cannot be described in words.
"Wu Dafu... I don't have a name." Ah Niu suddenly said with a rough tone.
"Huh...... Isn't Ah Niu enough?" Wu Rui looked bewildered.
"Uh... how do you write 'Ah Niu'?" Ah Niu asked with wide eyes.
"Ah Niu... just press your finger on it." Wu Rui's expression was strange.
"Oh, I'm doing it now." Ah Niu finally let out a sigh of relief after hearing this, and then carefully pressed his finger on the agreement.
At that moment, a change occurred below the agreement, and the words "Galactic Position Osen Star Ball A Niu" appeared automatically. The agreement was thus formed!
Wu Rui Le smiled and took back the agreement, then came to Ah Niu's side again: "I'll treat you now, just relax."
This minor injury doesn't require a needle, and since Ah Niu has already considered himself an immortal, Wu Rui also didn't need to use a needle to conceal his own incredible technique. He once again pinched out a strange gesture, and a rejuvenation technique directly hit Ah Niu's wound. This bloody and unclear wound was actually healing at a speed visible to the naked eye. In the blink of an eye, new flesh and even new skin grew out, without leaving any trace of injury.
Niú turned his head and stared at the scene with wide eyes, his heart even more sincere, thinking to himself that this was indeed a divine skill...
"Alright!" Wu Rui slowly withdrew his technique, exhaling a mouthful of turbid air, and his face showed a few more signs of fatigue. Although it was just a simple rejuvenation technique, the amount of true energy consumed was not small. After all, Wu Rui's current cultivation was still shallow, only at the level of a medical practitioner, equivalent to the fusion period in the Xianxia world.
"The Divine Farmer's Classic" has a detailed hierarchical division from low to high, including medical apprentices, medical practitioners, medical masters, and medical kings. Wu Rui is currently only at the second level, that is, he is just a medical practitioner. Even a simple rejuvenation technique would cost him half of his true yuan, if he were to do several more, he would probably be exhausted.
"Thank you, Great Doctor Wu, you're a god!" Ah Niu was deeply convinced by Wu Rui's divine technique and couldn't help but kneel down in worship!
"Ah... hurry up and get up!" Wu Rui reluctantly helped Ah Niu up again, then looked at him with a serious expression: "Later I'll send you back to your original place. According to the agreement we just signed, you must prepare the ginseng within one day. If not, the clinic will punish you, remember!"
Although Ah Niu didn't quite understand Wu Rui's words, he roughly understood the meaning and respectfully replied: "Ah Niu understands, after returning, I will immediately mobilize my clansmen to prepare things for the immortal."
Wu Rui nodded and then reopened the clinic system screen, seeing that the flowchart already showed the words "Treatment Successful", with an option behind it that said "Send off guest". The meaning was clear from the literal interpretation, so he didn't think much about it and pressed this option.
The next moment a white light flashed by, Ah Niu's body instantly disappeared from sight.
P.S: May I ask, does anyone have a recommendation ticket?
