A great director who grew up happily

Chapter 34: The efficacy of the medicine is unknown and it won’t kill people

In the parking lot outside the school, Chen Jinnian saw the somewhat anxious Liu Zheng, and Liu Jing and Ji Shengli next to him, and he instantly understood something.

"Uncle Ji, Aunt Liu." He went over and greeted them.

Liu Jing wasn't in a good state, appearing sickly weak, but she still managed a smile when she saw him coming over, and said gently, "Jinnian, thank you for coming here."

Ji Shengli, who had been supporting Liu Jing, also smiled at him, but was a little worried.

Just as Chen Jinnian was about to speak, Ji Yangyang said in surprise, "Mom, you're back from your business trip."

When Liu Jing saw her son, she quickly waved him over and said, "I just came back. Your uncle was looking for Jinnian for something, so he sent me over as well."

"Oh, Mom, I think something's wrong with you. Are you sick?" Ji Yangyang walked over and asked.

Liu Jing rubbed her face in a panic and explained, "Maybe I'm a little too tired after sitting in the car all day."

In order to prevent Ji Yangyang from asking more questions, Liu Zheng hurriedly urged them to go home and rest. However, Ji Shengli was obviously hesitant and didn't want to leave. It seemed that he wanted to stay and talk to Chen Jinnian.

However, Liu Zheng felt that it would be best for him, the district chief, not to interfere in what was happening next, so he signaled him to leave quickly.

Only after the three members of the Ji family left did Liu Zheng invite Chen Jinnian to get in the car.

After getting in the car, Chen Jinnian asked before Liu Zheng could speak: "Has Aunt Liu Jing's illness been confirmed?"

Hearing this, Liu Zheng slammed the steering wheel twice, trying to control his emotions before saying, "Yes, after you said that that day, I contacted the best hospital to have my sister examined. Then they did a puncture surgery for the pathological examination, and confirmed that it was early-stage breast cancer."

In fact, when Liu Zheng first got the test results, he couldn't accept it at all. Even now, he still can't accept the fact that his sister has cancer.

Liu Jing is nine years older than Liu Zheng. The two siblings have a very good relationship. It can be said that Liu Zheng was raised by Liu Jing, so now Liu Zheng has only one idea, which is to cure his sister at any cost.

"If we seize the time for treatment and undergo surgical removal, there is still a certain chance of recovery for early-stage breast cancer." Chen Jinnian said that for cancer, the most terrifying thing is not getting sick, but the metastasis and spread in the later stages.

Liu Zheng nodded. The doctor had told them all this information, but Liu Jing believed that once the resection surgery was performed, she would no longer be a complete woman, so she had not made up her mind yet.

"Jinnian, I came to you today to find out the location of that old Chinese doctor and ask him to treat my sister. After all, if even you have such ability, then this old man must also have extraordinary medical skills."

Liu Zheng looked at Chen Jinnian pleadingly. He now had complete faith in the old Chinese doctor. You know, Chen Jinnian discovered that Liu Jing was ill with just a few simple glances, while the doctor in the hospital, with so many equipment, took a week to confirm the fact that Liu Jing had cancer.

Chen Jinnian now has a very confused look on his face. What a ridiculous old Chinese doctor, all these stories were made up by him.

You must know that since the medical reform in the 80s, public hospitals have begun to be responsible for their own profits and losses, and a large number of hospitals have begun to strive for profitability, resulting in a rapid expansion of faster-testing Western medicine. The guideline of giving equal importance to Chinese and Western medicine has in fact become empty talk.

These factors have caused the rapid extinction of traditional Chinese medicine in the contemporary era. Today, many people regard traditional Chinese medicine as pseudoscience and believe that it should be swept into the dustbin of history.

For Chen Jinnian, it was extremely difficult to find that "void" old Chinese doctor, or even just find a famous old Chinese doctor.

He could only bite the bullet and make up a story: "It's been many years. The old man has passed away long ago."

Hearing this, Liu Zheng seemed to have been drained of all his strength, and he slumped limply in the driver's seat.

Looking at Liu Zheng's decadent appearance, Chen Jinnian didn't know what to say. Birth, old age, sickness and death are the norm in life and no one can escape it.

However, he suddenly remembered that he still had two disease-curing pills, which were both gifts given out during the monthly signing period. However, because the descriptions were too unreliable, he had never used them.

He quickly opened the system and entered the backpack to check.

"Disease Elimination Pill (Inferior), originally a top-grade elixir, a rare treasure in the world. This pill follows an ancient recipe that has been passed down for thousands of years, drawing on the essence of plants and trees, and gathering the essence of heaven and earth. It can heal the dead and turn their bones into flesh. P.S. This pill has been useless, and its efficacy is unknown. Taking one pill will not kill you."

Chen Jinnian looked at the messy description, scratched his hair, and wondered whether he should give it to Liu Zheng.

Oh, I don’t know who created this broken system. It’s so unreliable when sending things.

After hesitating for a long time, he still decided to take this thing out. It wouldn't kill him anyway, and if it was useful, he would make a profit.

He said tentatively, "But the old man left a recipe, and I spent quite a while making one. I wonder if Aunt Liu Jing would like to try it."

"Recipe? What kind of recipe?" Liu Zheng grabbed his arm and asked.

"It's a prescription for curing diseases and eliminating evil spirits, but it's quite special. A person can only eat it once in his lifetime." Chen Jinnian answered. The main reason was that it said 'one pill won't kill you', so he dared to give Liu Zheng one.

"You can only eat it once. Isn't it dangerous?"

"Hmm... Honestly, I don't know either, because making one is difficult. But the old man said at the time that it wouldn't kill you, but how much of an effect it would achieve would depend on luck." Chen Jinnian pondered for a moment, then explained the problem, but added, "But I don't recognize this as medicine. It's just a kind of food. Don't sue me for practicing medicine illegally."

Liu Zheng was listening very seriously at first, but when he heard the last sentence, he couldn't help laughing. "Damn it, how could I be that kind of person? I know this is food, okay?"

Then he picked up his phone and said, "Name a price and I'll transfer the money to you."

Chen Jinnian was stunned for a moment, then cursed: "Go to hell, I'm not a money-grubber. This thing is my gift to Aunt Liu Jing. If you want to buy it with money, get out of here as soon as possible."

Liu Zheng gave a thumbs-up. "Okay, I appreciate the favor. Where is the thing? I'll drive you there to get it."

"It's at my house, Shuxiang Yayuan. Just wait for me on the first floor." Chen Jinnian replied.

Anyway, it has come to this point, so it doesn’t matter if I just do the whole thing.

After a while, he went upstairs and entered the house. He took out a gray disease-curing pill from the system. It was indeed useless and looked terrible.

But then he was in trouble. Where should he put this thing? He couldn't just hold it in his hand and hand it to Liu Zheng. That would be too unhygienic.
