Chapter 261
“What?Alchemy?You’re killing me with jokes like that!”
“Dr. Jiao, you’re crazy as an assistant, everyone knows ancient alchemy is a lie!”
“This man is an insult to modern science and to Chinese medicine!Tell him to get off the stage!”
There was a ruckus offstage, and a few professors on stage looked like they were crying and laughing.
“Professor Hua, your apprentice is not bad, but he doesn’t choose his assistants very well.”Professor Lee laughed, turning his head to Professor Hua and teasing him.
The other professors also looked like they were laughing and crying, and Professor Zhang, who was on good terms with Professor Hua, shook his head and laughed bitterly, “Professor Hua, let’s call this match a draw, I don’t think Xiaochun can prescribe so many expensive herbs!”
Lin Feng’s heart went even crazier and he wanted to laugh, but he kept pretending to be a gentleman and his face was red.
In the audience, only Jiao Yuchun Haoden Ye and three others didn’t have smiles on their faces.
Jiao Yuchun looked embarrassed and looked at Haoden Ye with a bitter smile, at this time he didn’t know how to explain to the crowd.
He was aware that Haoden Ye did know how to refine pills, and the Jade Dew Pill was a proof of that.
However, he couldn’t prove this to anyone, as the pills after alchemy were very similar to the current pills.
Amidst the laughter of the crowd, Haoden Ye said to the host, “Mr. Host, can you give me a small fireplace!”
The host, who was already very angry, snorted at the news, “Sorry, we don’t have such feudal superstitions here!”
“That’s fine, I don’t need a furnace, you can give me an alcohol stove and a luxuriant, and the herbs I mentioned above are always fine!”Haoden Ye’s face was calm.
“Are you going to refine it from this podium?”The host sneered and looked at Haoden Ye with a disdainful face.
“Host, people have said they’re going to refine the pills, so let’s see them!”Lin Feng smiled at the host.
The crowd below the stage let out a laughing sound, every single person’s eyes looking at Haoden Ye ridiculously.
The hosts seemed to find it very funny and watched it as a funny show.
“Give this gentleman a luxuriant, plus the herbs he needs!”The host smiled at an assistant.
Soon, the herbs Haoden Ye needed, an alcohol lamp, and a Milky Way were all carried up.
“Dr. Yeh, will it work or not,”
He had seen Haoden Ye refine pills with a furnace, but had never thought that he could refine pills with a luxuriant hue.
Smiling slightly, Haoden Ye gave him a reassuring look, then said to Lin Xiang, “You’ll be my assistant!”
“Boss, it’s fine if you can’t, I thought the alchemy technique you taught me said that alchemy can only be done inside the furnace, and the temperature of the alcohol lamp is simply not high enough!”Lin Xiang frowned.
“That’s you beginners,” Haoden Ye smiled at Lin Xiang, “A master alchemist can use any tool to make pills!”
“As for the temperature, you don’t have to worry, this temperature is enough to refine this medicine!”
Still skeptical, Lin Yao nodded his head gently.
Igniting the alcohol lamp, Haoden Ye began to add herbs to the luxuriant vegetation.
Everyone’s eyes gazed at Haoden Ye, waiting to see his joke.
“This herb needs to be ground up in your hands to add to the gummi!”Haoden Ye shook his head when he saw that Lin Xiang was directly adding herbs to it.
“Grind it up by hand?”Lin Xiang looked at Haoden Ye in surprise, there was still this rule without first arriving at the alchemy.
“Well, it’s good for the full absorption of the herbs, and the alkalinity in the sweat can also fully break down the herbs!”With a slight smile, Haoden Ye said.
The people in the audience frowned when they saw Lin Xiang rubbing the herbs in his hands.
“You aren’t going to need another grinder!”The presenter frowned, “Is this hygienic to feed the patient?”
There was laughter again, and on stage Professor Hua frowned.
If he didn’t know what Haoden Ye was like, he would have kicked these two out!
Soon, the herbs were ground up and cheng was adding them to the gut.
The flames of the alcohol lamp flickered, and gusts of herbal scent wafted from it.
“How strange, these ordinary herbs actually smell fragrant!”
“Yeah, the smell, it’s soothing!”
Offstage, someone let out an exclamation.
Lin Feng smelled it and frowned, the smell in this luxuriant hue was actually the smell of those precious herbs!
Even the host, who had always had a problem with Haoden Ye, couldn’t help but reveal a surprised look at the herbs inside the luxuriant vegetation.
“I’m sorry, can you stay away, your destiny is water, it’s not good for the herbs inside!”Haoden Ye suddenly told the host.
“Huh?Fate is water?”Of course, the host knows that his destiny is water, Chinese medicine more or less learn a little gossip knowledge, but he does not believe that this is related to the alchemy.
“This doctor, are you kidding me?”The host and Milky Way pulled away, but looked at Haoden Ye with an amused face.
People who had been surprised that Haoden Ye’s concocted herbs had rushed to their surprise were also sneering!
What era is this, and you’re still talking about this, you really think you’re making immortal pills!
“I’m not joking, haven’t you ever thought that destiny has something to do with your constitution?Everyone has a different constitution, a different balance of chemicals in the body, and even the composition of the exhaled gas is different, all of which affect the medicinal properties!”
Haoden Ye didn’t have any anger, instead he smiled and explained.
On and off the stage, everyone listened to his words with amazement.
Some people even begin to wonder if their previous beliefs were all wrong.
“Haha, a lot of superstitions nowadays have learned to fool people with modern knowledge, Sven scum, say those people!”
Suddenly Lin Feng’s voice rang out and many people nodded their heads at his words.
“It’s superstition to bring up modern science, and alchemy is a lie!”This perception is so ingrained that it simply cannot be changed.
Without any explanation, Haoden Ye continued to refine the pills, and five minutes later, the aroma gradually became stronger, and everyone in the room felt energized when they smelled it.
“This smell is just too good to be true, what the hell is going on!”
“Yeah, I feel like my headache has lessened a lot just from smelling this!”
On the stage, several patients crossed their fingers.
Seeing that it was the beginning of a change, Lin Feng’s eyes narrowed.
A glance to the stage, he gave Professor Li a wink, Professor Li conference, suddenly slammed the table and stood up, angry face: “Outrageous, this superstition is still believed, I’ll call the police!”
Professor Xu also stood up and said angrily, “Doctors, we are all leaders in the field of Chinese medicine, if we allow this kind of thing to happen under our noses, won’t it be laughed at if word gets out?”
Chapter 262
“Professor Xu, Professor Li, aren’t you guys too excited, Chinese medicine should keep an open mind to this, although a lot of history shows that alchemy is a superstition, but isn’t this also a way to pass on Chinese medicine?”
At this point, Prof. Wahl stood up and then made his point.
“Professor Hua, you can believe such scum words?”
Professor Li sneered and looked at Professor Hua with a despicable look in his eyes: “Few people believe in TCM nowadays, how many people still believe in our TCM if we let this group of people continue to do nonsense?I will not allow this to happen on my watch!”
“Yes, we won’t allow it!”
At this time, when they heard Professor Li’s words, someone off stage suddenly roared, these were the people Professor Li had arranged to create momentum for Lin Feng.
Getting a hint from Lin Feng’s eyes, they immediately began to incite the emotions of many doctors on stage.
“Professor Hua, you are highly respected, but your apprentice has gone too far, many parts of our TCM heritage make people unable to understand, some people use this to spread feudal superstitions, this is corrupting TCM!”
However, there were still people who wanted to see if Haoden Ye’s alchemy was real or not, so they also helped or spoke.
Soon there was an uproar offstage!
“Let’s not allow this to happen!”
Suddenly, someone offstage shouted and rushed up to the podium.
Then came a second and a third, and many more rushed to the podium.
“Stop them!”Seeing this, Haoden Ye mentally worried, if they were to kick over their pill furnace, all the efforts just now would be wasted.
There was no hesitation now, and he turned around to block those people.
“Everyone calm down, this is a TCM competition, please don’t use violence!”The host panicked too!
At this time the stage has rushed up two people, Haoden Ye quickly persuade, but which people listen, they are all received Lin Feng instructed up.
Helplessly, Haoden Ye could only make a move!
With a punch to that man’s chest, Haoden Ye knocked that man right off the stage.
“He even lord!It’s so rampant, is this still a doctor?”Immediately someone was furious.
More people rushed onto the podium and pounced on Haoden Ye.
Seeing this scene, Lin Feng had a smirk on his lips.
“Hmph, you’re not even close to fighting me, I’ll discredit you today!”A smug smile flashed as Lin Feng revealed a look of righteous indignation, “Hurry up and call the police, Dr. Jiao’s assistant has done it!”
Several of the professors in the audience were also making a lot of noise and began to make accusations, unable to stop the current mess.
The reporters, on the other hand, came to be interested and rushed to take these precious pictures.
Their cameras are mainly focused on Haoden Ye, because that’s where the best part is.
“I can’t believe there’s a doctor inside who knows martial arts, haha, it’s so exciting, it’s like making a movie!”
“Looking at the segment, it should be at least at the level of a Grandmaster, putting down four people at once!”
The journalists were so enthused photographers that they added photographic effects for effect.
On the stage, Haoden Ye’s figure flashed, and under the fists and kicks, none of them could last more than three seconds.
Those people also seemed to notice that they couldn’t break through Haoden Ye’s defense and turned to jump on Jiao Yuchun and Lin Xiang.
Immediately seven or eight people rushed over to Jiao Yuchun’s side, seeing this, Jiao Yuchun panicked, his figure retreating incessantly.
The gang had sneers on their faces, Haoden Ye could fight them unexpectedly, Jiao Yuchun could not know martial arts.
Soon, they reached the pill furnace and one man lifted his foot over to it.
At that moment, however, the man’s ears breezed, and before he could react, a leg flashed in front of his eyes and the man fell to the ground in blackness.
It was a sight that startled a lot of people around!
This girl knows martial arts!
The most surprised were of course the host and Jiao Yuchun, who were closest and could see most clearly.
“Little cheer, you know…you know martial arts?”Jiao Yuchun was stunned.
Lin Xiang didn’t say anything, her petite body flashed and moved like a dance, while around her, a scream rang out.
What was most unbelievable was that obviously her movements could be seen with the naked eye, but her figure was like a flash of light, constantly appearing in all directions of the fireplace.
“Quickly!Camera on that girl!”A reporter spotted the scene and quickly asked the cameraman to shoot in a different direction.
“The girl has a nice body, she’s average looking, but why do you enjoy watching her hit people so much?”Someone couldn’t help but let out an exclamation.
Although Lin Xiang was striking, his movements were so graceful that they were like dancing.
“Arashi Dance!”
At this time, the only person on the stage who was scared of Lin Xiang’s martial arts rush was Lin Feng, because he recognized Lin Xiang’s moves!
That’s a self-defense martial art only the Lin family can learn, Arashi Dance!
It’s said to have been pioneered by one of the Lin family’s predecessors, with graceful movements, but vicious strokes and flickering shadows!
“This girl is a member of our Lin family, and she’s a direct descendant!”Gulping down saliva, Lin Feng panicked.
He would brag that he was a member of the Lin family, but in reality, he was just a sidekick.
And the people who really control the Lin family’s resources are the Lin family’s direct descendants, who, though equally wealthy, will never enter the center of power!
Therefore, facing the true firstborn, Lin Feng drove fear from deep within.
Of course, there are sidekicks who learn the Arashi Dance, but these act as mere statements.
The Lin family’s proud heritage is mainly due to this strict family system.
“Who the hell is this man, and we in the Lin family protect him too!”Lin Feng was confused.
At this moment, a voice sounded and all eyes bet on the pill furnace.
But I saw a white smoke gently floating up inside the fireplace, as if it was alive, condensing and not dissipating!
“The medicine is done!”Haoden Ye suddenly shouted, stopping the people on and off the stage.
Everyone is quiet, and those who are scheming know that it’s too late to stop them.
Amidst everyone’s eyes, Haoden Ye slowly walked towards the fireplace and took out a pill from it.
The whole body is crystal green, like emerald beads, very beautiful!
With a slight smile, Haoden Ye gave the pills a glance to the crowd, then walked towards one of the patients.
Several patients were a little afraid when they saw the turquoise pills.
“Outrageous, I refuse to allow my patients to take this potion, who knows if it has any poison in it!”Professor Lee stood up suddenly, angry.
“I trust this doctor’s alchemy, and I’m responsible for anything that goes wrong!”Professor Hua also knew that this was the last moment, and his face was appraising.
On and off the stage, everyone looked hesitant and the host was in a difficult position.
Chapter 263
“It’s better to let the patient choose!”At this time, suddenly a reporter.
The host was so happy that he quickly said, “Well, let our patients choose to eat it or not!”
Haoden Ye handed the pills to a patient and said, “Feel free to eat it or not, this is a chance for you to be completely cured of your migraines!”
All the patients looked at the pills and wanted to take them but were afraid of the danger.
Thinking about the days of being tortured by migraines, they all looked hard!
This insignificant disease has killed many people!
“Let me do it!”At this time, a sturdy, straight-looking man walked over and snatched Haoden Ye’s medicine and put it into his mouth.
All eyes head bet on him, eyes tense.
But the man took the drug and frowned slightly, “It doesn’t feel like it’s having any effect.”
Boom!There was a roar of voices on and off the stage, and the accusations grew louder.
The nervous looking Professor Li and Professor Xu looked at each other and simultaneously relaxed.
“It’s just too… “Professor Li immediately wanted to curse Haoden Ye angrily.
However, at this moment, that patient suddenly shook all over, a look of surprise on his face.
“So…so Shufu!”Comfortable voices sounded inside the hall, as if people who had been in jail all their lives were suddenly free.
Soon, the man’s eyes gradually moistened and he looked excited, “Good Shufu, really good Shufu, no pain at all!”
Bobbing his head vigorously, the man looked surprised.
Again, all of them uttered exclamations as the man seemed to look much better in their sight.
“How strange, the man is still the same man, why does it feel like he’s suddenly changed!”
“Really, is there really such a medical art as alchemy?”
Many people let out exclamations, while the man had already grabbed Haoden Ye’s hand and knelt right down, “This doctor, thank you, thank you so much!My migraines are finally gone!”
The other patients also gave Haoden Ye a prayerful look, “This doctor, give us a pill too, I’ll pay 50,000 for it!”
“I’ll give you a hundred thousand!”Another patient spoke loudly.
“I’ll pay $300,000 for just one to keep me from getting a headache all day, I’m already dying of pain!”
The indignation inside the hall gradually became heated, and those doctors also showed a prayerful look to Haoden Ye.
One could imagine how lucrative it would be to learn how to refine such pills!
You know, an ordinary man would rather spend all his possessions on a migraine treatment, let alone a rich one!
“Oh, since it’s a competition, I can certainly make a pill for all of you, but after the competition it will be a bit difficult, I have other things to do!”Haoden Ye smiled slightly.
This kind of pill could only be made by someone at his level, Lin Xiang could barely make one, but it would take a day, and it would only be one-fifth as effective as the one he made.
Several patients were overjoyed to hear it.
And just at this time, a voice from offstage suddenly sounded out, “Professor Hua, does your disciple know of this alchemy method that you can teach us?I’ll pay five million for it!”
Many of the TCM scholars in the audience came from good families, many of them multi-millionaires, and studied TCM simply because of their love for it.
“I’ll give you six million, cash deal!”As soon as that person finished speaking, someone else immediately followed.
“I’ll pay seven million…”
The shouting of prices was so loud that the hosts were stunned.
Not only him, Haoden Ye and Jiao Yuchun and the others were also dumbfounded.
“Ahem, gentlemen, we’re not at an auction, this is a competition!”The moderator immediately began to emphasize.
“Ten million, I’ll have my assistant come over right away to transfer the money!”The people in the audience simply ignored him and continued to shout loudly.
“Fifteen million, and I’ll give you ten percent of the profits as a percentage!”Someone raised their voice.
Fifteen million, with a ten percent commission, that’s a lot of money, and now the host can’t say anything.
If he had, I’m afraid he would have nodded his head long ago.
One by one, those professors on the stage also looked surprised, Professor Hua smiled bitterly, Professor Li and Professor Xu looked very embarrassed.
It was supposed to suppress Professor Hua this time, but it was unexpected that Haoden Ye had made such a big splash that Lin Feng completely lost face at all.
However, Lin Feng could only grit his teeth and watch, ever since he knew that Lin Xiang was a member of the Lin family’s first family, he didn’t dare to provoke Haoden Ye.
Yet to embarrass Jiao Yuchun, he could still do it, but there was no chance now.
“Thirty million, twenty percent of the profit!”The competition had been fierce offstage, yet the last bid still silenced everyone.
At $30 million and a 20 percent profit, that’s a price no one can afford to pay.
You know, this migraine drug, once produced, could immediately monopolize the herbal market, so they felt it was still very worthwhile.
“Doctor Ye, thirty million ah, or you can agree to it, it’s good for the patients if this drug is produced anyway!”Jiao Yuchun couldn’t even help but be impressed.
Even Lin Xiang nodded and said, “Yes, with 30 million, you’ll be able to open bigger medicine stores and buy more herbs!”
Everyone’s eyes were betting on Haoden Ye, yet they didn’t see any greed for money on his face.
“Guys, I don’t want to sell this herb, but I can teach you all the refining method and recipe for this herb!”Haoden Ye smiled slightly.
Everyone turned pale at the words.
Don’t even want the price of 30 million for the chance to monopolize this kind of herb, he actually wants to publish the formula of this kind of herb directly.
How is this possible!
“This doctor, you’re not kidding, you should know the value of this herb!”The host stared, incredulous.
The people in the audience showed incredulous looks too!
Professor Hua was also very surprised at first, but he soon showed a look of understanding.
Haoden Ye practiced medicine, never for money, and he even waived many doctors’ fees.
The one who understood Haoden Ye the most was not Professor Hua, instead it was Lin Xiang, who had understood Haoden Ye’s mind just as he said that sentence.
“Listen up everyone, the method of refining this herb is…”
Haoden Ye didn’t have any nonsense, he directly started to say the method of refining the medicinal materials, the whole hall was quiet, everyone stopped Haoden Ye’s words.
Someone with a heart has pulled out their phone and started recording!
As Haoden Ye told the story, everyone began to believe that there really was alchemy in this world!
Soon, Haoden Ye finished his narration, and there was silence on stage.
“This Doctor Ye not only has medical skills but also medical ethics, further proving that alchemy is not all lies!”Professor Wahl stood up to the crowd.
