“Doctor Chen, you aren’t awake yet… It’s like this, I’ve already gotten the herbs from the list you gave to me, but I don’t recognize these medicinal herbs. Can I trouble you to verify it and see if anything is missing?” Zhang Shi was afraid that Chen Yi might be angry from being woken up, so he phrased his words politely.

After a few perfunctory words, Chen Yi was more or less awake. Thus, he casually washed up and went to Zhang Shi’s villa.

It was only 5:30 am, and there were all kinds of medicinal herbs in Zhang Shi’s villa. They were just waiting for Chen Yi to come over.

Chen Yi, who thought that he would be able to sleep in, yawned. Upon seeing so many medicinal herbs, he was taken aback for a moment before nodding his head. It was really something. He managed to obtain them so quickly!

“Do we need to prepare anything else?” Zhang Shi asked.

“There’s no need for that. It’s fine like this. I’ll check to see if there are any problems with the medicinal herbs you’ve purchased, and then we can begin the treatment,” as he spoke, Chen Yi picked a small hole in the medicinal bag, pinched it a little, and put it near his nose to smell it.

The smell was quite good. It seemed that the herbs he bought were of good quality.

“Yes, we have to trouble you to check and verify the herbs, Doctor Chen. There are so many medicinal herbs. We can still gather more in time if anything is missing. Otherwise, it’ll be a little late when we need them later!” Mrs. Zhang added.

Chen Yi looked at a couple of medicinal bags and felt that there were a little too many medicinal herbs here, “How about this, help me get a room and bring all the medicinal herbs in. It’s a little inconvenient to put them here.”

“Alright, we can use the room just next to my daughter’s. It’s more convenient for Doctor Chen since it’s closer to her… It happens to be an empty room as well,” Zhang Shi said.

Mrs. Zhang hurriedly said, “Alright, I’ll tidy it up. I’ll get someone to put the things in.”

From their earnest attitude, it could be seen how much they cared about their child.

Zhang Shi followed closely behind him as he watched Mrs. Zhang tidy up the room.

Chen Yi looked at Zhang Shi and asked, “Oh right, has she woken up during this period?”

Hearing those questions, Zhang Shi frowned, afraid that something might be wrong with her. He replied, “Yes, she has. Around three o’clock, I asked someone to prepare some liquid food for her. Not long after, she fell into a deep sleep. Her condition is getting worse. She has lost so much weight that I’m worried that she won’t be able to take it.”

Chen Yi, who didn’t know how to console others, said, “She will be fine. Don’t worry, I’m here.”

“Then I’ll thank you, Doctor Chen! My daughter’s life is now in your hands. If she recovers, you will be the benefactor of our family. You will be my second parent!”

Zhang Shi bowed sincerely, Chen Yi raised his hand to support him, “There’s no need to be so courteous. You are exaggerating too much, Mr. Zhang. I’m just trying my best. However… in this situation, I think that your little girl will probably be unconscious for the next few days.”

Unconscious? Zhang Shi was a little anxious when he heard that. “This… if she continues to be unconscious, it will be a huge problem! Doctor Chen, what should we do?”

Shock and panic seemed to have become Zhang Shi’s normal reaction. Chen Yi said, “It’s fine. The coma that I mentioned is a normal reaction. If I were to treat her, she might develop some symptoms. Thus, from the start of my treatment until the end, she will be in a coma. Furthermore, this period is crucial. She can’t be fed with food or water. The only thing she can be fed with is the medicine that I make.”

He emphasized the importance of this matter.

“This… will it be alright if she doesn’t eat or drink for a while?” Zhang Shi was slightly worried.

“I’m confident that it will be fine. On the other hand, don’t do or feed her anything. Otherwise, it will become more troublesome for me.”

Zhang Shi wanted to say something, but seeing Chen Yi’s serious expression, he couldn’t help but swallow his words, “Alright, I’ll listen to you, Doctor.”

Not too long later, Mrs. Zhang and the others had already tidied up the room. The medicinal herbs and the things needed to decoct the medicine were all placed inside.

Chen Yi took some time to open the bags one by one to check if any medicinal herbs were missing.

Around the afternoon, Chen Yi rubbed his waist and nose and stretched his back lazily. It was a little tiring…

After that, he took a set of acupuncture needles and went to Zhang Shi’s daughter’s room.

Zhang Shi’s daughter was called Ni Ni, Zhang Ni.

He looked at Ni Ni on the bed. First, he needed to disinfect the silver needles. He passed the needles through the alcohol lamp before inserting them into the acupuncture points one by one.

There were a total of seventy-two needles. After all the needles were inserted, Chen Yi returned to the room where the medicinal herbs were placed and began to decoct the medicine.

It was similar to the Traditional Chinese Medicine decoctions, but Chen Yi’s method seemed to be more complicated. Moreover, he brewed the four cups of herbs together. He lit the fire at the same time and extinguished the fire at the same time. The herbs were not mixed in either. Instead, they were added in very regular order.

After each cup was decocted, he would put it in a thermos bottle next to him and seal it. Then, he would decoct the other four cups of herbs.

His method was complicated. From time to time, he would need some water, and had to confirm the quantity of the medicinal herbs in the cup. Furthermore, with the four cups together, he would be so busy that he would forget to eat or sleep. However, even though he was busy by himself, he was still methodical.

It was almost four in the morning when all the medicinal herbs were prepared. Chen Yi wiped his sweat and drank some water before starting the second round of brewing.

There was some space in the middle, so Mrs. Zhang and Zhang Shi took turns to stand by Chen Yi’s side, helping him deliver something or give him a hand.

“Doctor Chen, I see that you have been busy for a long time. Please have something to eat,” Mrs. Zhang ordered someone to warm the meat porridge.

“Sure, thank you,” Chen Yi was already starving. If it weren’t for the fact that he had to spare no effort in brewing the medicine, he would probably be able to eat a whole cow!

When the meat porridge was served, his appetite was huge. He ate two to three bowls. When he saw that the fire was almost ready, he started to get busy again. This time, he was busy for almost half a day.

He operated it repeatedly until all the medicinal ingredients were gathered into a bowl of Chinese medicine. Chen Yi added another medicinal ingredient and brewed it for about half an hour. Finally, he turned off the fire and it was done!

In the end, only half a bowl of medicine was poured out of the medicine cup. It was not black-brown, but a clear blue-black color. The faint fragrance of the herbs could be smelled. It was like a bowl of porridge. This made the couple a little stunned.

After all, for the sake of Ni Ni’s body, the couple had invited many Chinese doctors and brewed a lot of Chinese medicine. The color that came out was always almost black-brown. Generally, it was more viscous and had medicinal dregs.

As for Chen Yi’s bowl, not only was it fragrant, but the color was also clean and clear. There were no medicinal dregs either.

The couple looked at Chen Yi’s complicated methods and was even a little dazzled.

At this moment, they were dumbfounded. They even realized that it was worthy of the thousands-year-old Traditional Chinese Medicine. The medicinal herbs and methods were almost all the crystallization of the wisdom of their ancestors. Furthermore, the depth of traditional Chinese medicine was something that Western medicine couldn’t compare to!

When Chen Yi brought the medicine over, Zhang Shi couldn’t help but swallow his saliva, “Is this really traditional Chinese medicine? Why don’t I smell those awful smells? Instead, I feel that this medicine is fragrant?”

“Don’t spout nonsense!” Mrs. Zhang hurriedly interrupted him.

Zhang Shi realized that he might have said something wrong, so he hurriedly apologized, “No, I’m just surprised. I’ve never seen this before, so…”

Looking at the couple, Chen Yi chuckled, “Don’t worry, this is pure Chinese medicine. It’s just that the method of brewing ordinary Chinese medicine is simple, so I have refined quite a few of them. Their medicinal effects have been enhanced as well. The things left behind by the ancestors are naturally the essence of medicine. It’s not easy to see this..”
