Chapter 74 You're so happy you're crazy!
"what!"
"what!"
The two were so shocked that they stood up, forgetting all about the delicious food in their bowls.
"Miss Qiao, what kind of grass did you just say?" Xuan Yi's voice trembled with nervousness.
Qiao Jingjing frowned. Had she given him the wrong medicine?
"I used water boiled with ambergris."
Xuan Yi and Feng Tian's expressions changed drastically, then they were overjoyed. They knew that this was an extremely precious herb, said to be able to bring the dead back to life and heal the wounded, with extremely strong medicinal power. Most importantly, His Highness's heart ailment required this herb for treatment.
On the contrary, Tantai Zhou reacted too calmly, maintaining his previous eating pace, as if their conversation had nothing to do with him.
But his trembling eyelashes gave him away, revealing a heart full of shattered emotions. He didn't want to give himself too much hope, because countless hopes had already been dashed in the past five years.
Toyota asked anxiously, "Girl, how do you know it's ambergris and not some other herb? What if it just looks similar?"
"It should be correct, right? There's a picture on the ancient recipe, and I've checked it several times."
The two of them exclaimed, "!!"
"You have an ancient secret recipe?" Toyota asked. "You actually have an ancient secret recipe! Girl, no, Miss Qiao, are you sure it's an ancient secret recipe? Could you let this old man take a look?"
He then added, "I'm not after your secret recipe. If it's inconvenient for you, you can just tell me if this book mentions any prescriptions for treating heart disease, and what those prescriptions are."
Although Qiao Jingjing is not a doctor, she comes from modern society and has a broad and open mind, so she naturally wouldn't be as secretive as people in ancient times.
To her, these ancient books would only be buried and wasted if she kept them.
Therefore, she felt it would be better to give the book to the other party to read. If he could cure that young master Tan (they introduced him as surnamed Tan), then she would have enough time to investigate the information about the spirit pearl and the jade tablet.
Thinking of this, Qiao Jingjing readily replied, "What's the problem? It's just a book! If you want to read it, I'll bring it to you right now."
Knowing they were anxious, she rushed home immediately. She could have just found a quiet corner to retrieve it, but remembering that someone was waiting for her at home for dinner, she went back to explain.
Qiao Jingjing rushed home, greeted her mother Lin, and told her that she didn't need to wait for her for dinner. She then taught her several times how to operate the copper hot pot, how to adjust the charcoal fire, and how to blanch vegetables before leaving home with peace of mind.
As she walked, she recalled what had happened before, and couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
I was looking forward to finally enjoying a delicious hot pot meal, but I didn't expect that I wouldn't be able to have my wish in the end.
When she reached the courtyard gate, Qiao Jingjing stopped and took out the ancient secret recipe from her spatial storage. After thinking for a moment, she took out a piece of ambergris that had been boiled in water.
Tantai Zhou already knew she had arrived at the courtyard gate. He couldn't use his internal energy now, but his hearing was exceptional. Within a radius of one mile, he could hear anything he wanted to hear, as long as he focused his attention in the direction he wanted to hear.
He became nervous the moment Qiao Jingjing stepped into the courtyard. Unlike his feigned composure earlier, this time his panic was palpable.
He couldn't help but glance towards the kitchen doorway, wanting to be the first to see who stepped inside. Seeing Qiao Jingjing appear before him with a book and a stalk of hay, he thought there might be hope this time.
Toyota and Genichi stood there, their fists clenched under their sleeves. Qiao Jingjing could tell from their pale fingertips that...
Qiao Jingjing handed the secret recipe and ambergris to Feng Tian. Feng Tian held the recipe as if it were a treasure and carefully read through it, his expression sometimes surprised and sometimes puzzled.
After a long while, Toyota raised his head, a hint of excitement flashing in his eyes: "This secret formula is indeed extraordinary. Many of the prescriptions recorded in it are long-lost remedies. However, I still need some time to study the prescription for treating heart disease."
Qiao Jingjing nodded: "Then take your time and look at it slowly, there's no need to rush."
Toyota smiled and said, "Miss Qiao, I will remember your great kindness. If you can cure my master's heart disease, you will be a benefactor to all of us! It will also fulfill a wish of mine."
After saying that, Toyota buried himself in studying the secret formula again.
Xuan Yi never expected that what he and Doctor Feng had longed for so long would come so easily. He immediately knelt down and performed a deep bow to Qiao Jingjing.
"Please accept my bow again, young lady! In this life, besides my master, you are the person I, Xuan Yi, am most loyal to."
Qiao Jingjing couldn't bear to see someone kowtow and thank him, so she quickly helped him up. "It's not as exaggerated as you say. It's just a book and a blade of grass. I don't even know if it will work."
Xuan Yi said, "Miss, you may not know this," he glanced at Tantai Zhou and, seeing that he didn't intend to stop him from continuing, continued, "
Our master has been suffering from this ailment for five years, and no amount of treatment has worked. We can only keep him afloat with expensive medicine. If it weren't for the medicinal meals prepared by the young lady a few times this winter, he would probably be in even worse shape.
Master Feng once saw a prescription and the required herbs for treating heart disease in a tattered book. However, not only could this prescription not be verified, but the herbs required were also extremely rare.
When Qiao Jingjing heard him say that the herbs were extremely rare, she regretted bringing them out so readily. She should have thought about the source of the herbs beforehand; this was too rash.
He wiped away his tears, choking back sobs as he continued, "Shen Qing risked everything to go out and search for it because he heard about the Dragon Saliva Grass. To us, our master's life is more important than anything else. As long as there's a glimmer of hope, we won't give up!"
We never expected this girl to give us such a big surprise! Haha, God really has a heart.
Xuan Yi felt that his crying and laughing at the same time looked awful, but he couldn't help it!
Tantai Zhou watched all this quietly, his heart filled with mixed emotions. He pursed his lips, a complex mix of anticipation for the future and fear of the unknown welling up within him.
He was indeed afraid, but this fear was completely different from the dangers of the battlefield. On the battlefield, everyone was fighting fiercely, with no time to think too much; they could only fight with all their might. But now, he was facing unknown terror, a feeling that sent shivers down his spine.
He still remembers the first time he stepped onto the battlefield, surrounded by shouts of battle and the clash of weapons, as they engaged in fierce combat with the enemy. At that time, he had no time to feel fear, because life could be lost at any moment, and only by constantly killing the enemy could he protect himself and his comrades.
When the battle ended, he finally had the strength to look around. Seeing the scattered limbs and broken bodies, a strong sense of fear and lingering dread washed over him. However, he knew there was danger ahead, so he remained vigilant.
However, the situation is quite different now.
He was now more like waiting to die, only wondering when the King of Hell would pronounce his life over. He constantly reminded himself not to have too high expectations.
He turned his head to look at Qiao Jingjing, who was two steps away. The woman was as calm and composed as ever, completely unaware that she had just done a good deed, and she did not seek any reward for it.
Qiao Jingjing felt the gaze and turned around. Tantai Zhou was somewhat taken aback to have been caught red-handed.
Qiao Jingjing waved her hand, "What's wrong? Are you so happy you've gone crazy?"
