Chen Ming hesitated a little. But the hesitation disappeared after seeing the mission.
“The system wants me to help Sun Lin…”
Chen Ming understood one thing after coming to this world. The system always helped him to get stronger no matter what.
Chen Ming looked at the worried Zhong Yang. He seemed to be hiding something.
Chen Ming took a deep breath. before asking Zhong Yang with seriousness.
“Merchant Zhong, this girl is not your daughter right?”
Zhong Yang heard that, he trembled and looked at Chen Ming in fear. He was afraid that Chen Ming would do something when he found out the truth.
Zhong Yang hurriedly lowered his head and immediately apologized to Chen Ming. He could not afford to offend him now. or the matter would become worse.
“Young Master Chen, I was wrong, I deserved to die, but please, young miss didn't do anything wrong. Please help her.”
“Young Miss?”
Chen Ming began to feel that the girl must have some background for him to refer to her as Young Miss.
“You misunderstood me, I'm asking not because I want to do something bad or refuse to help. I asked that purely for my and my older sister's safety. I'm just afraid that the background of Merchant Zhong and the young girl might bring us harm. But even I couldn't stand still. This young girl was being poisoned with the dragon tongue poison. I need to get rid of the poison within ten hours, otherwise she won't be able to survive.”
Chen Ming's words made Zhong Yang tremble a little bit but if Chen Ming knew what poison she had he might have a way to cure it.
“Thank you young master for your kindness. I, Zhong Yang, owe you a debt of gratitude. Even if I have to go through hell and high water I am willing to do so.”
Chen Ming shook his head.
“Okay leave that for later after I save her first.”
Chen Ming did not delay. He immediately examined the dragon tongue poison status.
Dragon's Tongue Poison (Earth Profound Stage)
Properties: Causing the flow of profound energy to be stuck. Break the pulse and life force.
Treatment method: 30 mil of red potion mixed with 100 gram of Sky Swallowing Grass, boiled in 200ml of water until it thickens before using it for treatment.
“Sky Swallowing Grass, Wen Jiajia, do you know about it?”
Xiao Wen nodded before answering.
“Yes I know about it Young Master, do you want to use the Sky Swallowing Grass?”
“Yes, I want to use 100 grams. Can you tell me where I can get it?”
“Young Master, the Sky Swallowing Grass is actually an ordinary grass that can be found anywhere. even here Xiao Wen saw it.”
Chen Ming was shocked. He thought it was a very rare herb just by its name who knew it was an ordinary grass that grew everywhere.
Xiao Wen seemed to know what Chen Ming was thinking. She giggled before speaking.
“Young Master, the reason why it is called the Sky Swallowing Grass is not because it is so valuable. But because the number of them is so large that they can swallow the sky.”
Chen Ming only laughed dryly. Xiao Wen then asked something.
“Young Master, why did Young Master know that Little Lady had been poisoned by the Dragon Tongue? Then why did Young Master want the Sky Swallowing Grass? Or why does the Young Master know how to cure it?”
Xiao Wen shot questions at Chen Ming. causing Chen Ming to sweat, he hadn't thought of this.
“Well, I… I, Ah that’s right I had read about it inside a book in the Scripture Hall…That’s it….”
Bull, it is full of bull, Chen Ming couldn't think of anything, and that was the first thing he could think of.
Xiao Wen's eyes lit up slightly. before smiling and speaking.
“Young Master Xiao Wen didn't think of catching Young Master. But Xiao Wen wanted Young master to be careful. Young Master has no way of knowing when Young Master's knowledge will return as a double-edged sword to hurt Young Master. Xiao Wen had some advice. If the young master has not yet reached at least the Qi Gathering Stage, please do not act impulsively.”
Xiao Wen warned Chen Ming with concern. Chen Ming nodded and was glad that Xiao Wen didn't seem to care how he knew about it. But she was more interested in how his knowledge would hurt him.
Chen Ming smiled at Xiao Wen, who finally blushed and lowered her head, not daring to meet Chen Ming's eyes.
Chen Ming then turned to Zhong Yang before speaking.
“Merchant Zhong, let's keep this a secret between us. Never tell anyone that I can cure this poison. Can you do it?"
Zhong Yang nodded before taking his oath to heaven and earth. If he spreads this matter let him die without a place to bury.
Chen Ming believed that he would definitely do as he said. because when he was honest Chen Ming heard the sound of thunder as if it was a signal to accept Zhong Yang's vow.
“Understood, Merchant Zhong, please deal with the Sky Swallowing Grass and the pot that will be used to boil medicines. I will make an antidote.”
Zhong Yang, who was given the order, immediately did as his order without asking.
Preparation took less than ten minutes. Chen Ming started a fire. Adding 100g of Sky Swallowing Grass along with water, he boiled it for a moment before it was the time for the main ingredient.
Red Potion, Chen Ming pretended to reach into his shirt before pulling out a glass bottle full of red liquid.
Xiao Wen saw the glass bottle containing the red liquid, and her eyes widened. She seemed to have seen this before. But it was very valuable. causing her to be unable to help herself and accidentally speak out.
“Heavenly Blood Medicine!”
Zhong Yang heard this and was stunned.
“Heavenly Blood Medicine! Young Master Chen… don't tell me you'd be willing to use such a mystical medicine. to help Young Miss!”
The red potion that Chen Ming used according to legend was said to be the most rare medicine in this world. No one can make it. It was a divine medicine that came from the heavens. It was said that the person who concocted it was at the ancestral stage in the legend.
Chen Ming did not understand what he was doing. He slowly mixed thirty mil of red potion into the pot. and as soon as he poured the red potion in. The boiled water in the pot was like being sucked into the red potion before it turned from red to green.
Chen Ming waited for a moment, then he checked the stats inside the pot.
Ten Thousand Type Poison Antidote (Earth Profound Stage)
Status: 50% Completion
Properties: Used to detoxify all kinds of poisons that are at the Earth Profound Stage and below.
Chen Ming sat and waited until the 50% status was 100%, then he extinguished the fire before inhaling the smell of the medicine.
“It can be used for treatment now. Merchant Zhong hurried up and gave the Young miss this medicine. She will be fine after that.”
Chen Ming turned to Zhong Yang. He was still absent-minded.
“Merchant Zhong?”
“Ah… please, young master.”
“Bring the medicine I made and feed the Young miss. If it is late, I am afraid that the potency of the medicine will be less.”
Chen Ming suggested, which Zhong Yang immediately followed.
Chen Ming after that saw Zhong Yang slowly bring the cup to the pot he had finished concocting. His hands trembled as if afraid that he would drop the medicine.
Chen Ming only shook his head. It wasn't that valuable for him. Even if he spilled it all on the ground, Chen Ming still can make it like a hundred times. but he needed to be more careful about it from now on. looked at how valuable it was from their reactions.
