Chapter 83 - Magical Medicine
The medicine was quickly decocted. The assistant brought the medicine in black to Jin Wang.
Jin Wang had taken Chinese medicine before. To treat his illness, he had tried all kinds of medicine.
However, after taking Chinese medicine for more than a year, his health did not improve at all. Yet he had to take such bitter medicine every day. This had impacted his impression of Chinese physicians and medicine.
He looked at the black-colored medicine and frowned, feeling a little disgusted.
But in the end, after thinking about it, he still pinched his nose and drank it in one go.
This medicine was much more bitter than he had imagined.
After drinking it for two to three minutes, Jin Wang still did not recover from the bitterness.
"This medicine is too bitter. If it's useless, I'll go beat up that Old Ding later."
The assistant heard Jin Wang's ridicule and laughed out loud.
"Good medicine tastes bitter, Elder Jin. This medicine is so bitter. If Old Ding Master could drink it for so long, it might really be useful. Otherwise, who would be willing to take this bitter medicine?"
After saying that, the assistant brought the empty bowl down.
Jin Wang quickly drank two large cups of water to dilute the bitter taste in his mouth.
It was also amazing. After five or six minutes, Jin Wang felt that the pain in his waist seemed to be reduced.
He waited for a while more, and the pain in his waist completely disappeared.
He could not believe it, so he quickly stood up and took two steps.
If it were any other time, when he walked, it would hurt the nerves at his waist. So, he could not walk fast, or else his waist would hurt.
But now, he was walking in the room and doing lunges, but his waist still didn't hurt.
He was both excited and nervous. After walking in the room for more than half an hour, he found that his condition was as good as yesterday. He was energetic and relaxed.
Was what Ding Shun said true?
That little girl's medical skills were really that good?
But now, there seemed to be no other explanation except this.
Yesterday, Jin Wang had eaten the sweet potato leaves that Cheng Ling had grown herself. Today, he had drunk the medicine that Cheng Ling had prescribed.
These two things were very effective in alleviating Jin Wang's pain.
It was too magical. Jin Wang, who had experienced decades of hardships, felt incredulous at this moment.
He had never seen such a magical thing.
He hurriedly picked up the phone and called Ding Shun.
"What's the matter, Old Jin?"
"Give me the girl's contact information quickly."
Ding Shun's laughter came from the other side. It was clear that he was mocking him.
"Did you find the medicine effective after drinking it?"
Jin Wang was a little embarrassed and angry by Ding Shun's laughter. "What are you laughing at, Old Man? There's such a good doctor, why did you tell me so late?"
"Didn't you say you don't believe in Chinese medicine? It's useless to tell you! Besides, your attitude yesterday has already angered the little girl to death."
Although Cheng Ling didn't show it yesterday, Ding Shun knew that she respected and highly valued Chinese medicine. Cheng Ling had always been very high-spirited and had her way of insisting on everything.
Cheng Ling was definitely not happy to be slandered by others for the sacred traditional Chinese medicine in her heart.
Although Cheng Ling was polite yesterday, based on Ding Shun's experience with Cheng Ling for so many years, his feelings couldn't be wrong.
"Old Man, don't add insult to injury here. Quickly give me that girl's contact information. I'll talk to her."
"Hmph, you dream on, Old Jin. If that girl Cheng can be talked to so easily, I'll take your surname."
"Don't talk to me in this manner. I woke up this morning and my waist hurt for a long time. A few minutes after drinking that medicine, the pain in my waist was completely gone. I've never taken such a magical medicine before."
"Now you know how magical this medicine is. I won't give you another dose. I'll give you the girl's phone number. Go tell her yourself."
As soon as Jin Wang obtained Cheng Ling's phone number, he called her.
But no one answered the phone. Jin Wang called two or three times, but no one answered.
The reason why Cheng Ling didn't answer the phone at that moment was very simple. She was weeding now.
After two days of light rain, Cheng Ling looked at the land after the rain stopped, and found that there were many weeds around.
These weeds would absorb the nutrients in the soil, affecting the growth of the crops.
So Cheng Ling took the sickle, removed the weeds, and then sprayed some herbicides on it.
This herbicide was also made by Cheng Ling herself.. Many herbicides in the market would affect the crops if sprayed too much.
