187 Exchanging Information

“Why don’t you identify these medicinal herbs first?” He pushed the medicinal herbs that he would use tomorrow to her side.

Jian Qingqing picked up one of them and lowered her head to take a sniff. It had a unique herbal fragrance and did not smell bad. She asked, “What are these medicinal herbs used for?”

She knew that the most important thing for shaving a person’s flesh was anesthesia. In modern times, there were anesthetics that could be injected with just one shot. It was said that in history, some had invented the anesthetic boiling powder, which could also be used as an anesthetic.

Wei Wusheng explained, “This is mainly used to numb people with the anesthetic boiling powder. If a person were to remove the rotten flesh under the condition of feeling pain, it is very likely that he would die from the pain, so the patient has to be unconscious to be able to shave his flesh.”

Upon hearing the anesthetic boiling powder, Jian Qingqing was surprised for a moment. It seemed that this world was somewhat similar to the world in her previous life. It was just that she was not good at studying history, so she did not know which era in her previous life was the target now.

She asked excitedly, “This medicine is so powerful! I wonder who invented it? It seems that the person who invented the sesame seed powder must be very skilled in medicine!”

Wei Wusheng shook her head and said, “This prescription is my family’s treasured prescription. It has been passed down from my ancestors. It is said that my ancestors bought it from a visiting doctor, and then they changed it a little.”

“So this prescription is only available in your family?”

Wei Wusheng answered confidently, “Of course! My family started off by treating external injuries. The powder is my Wei family’s exclusive prescription, and treating external injuries is also my Wei family’s specialty. I initially wanted to go to the battlefield and become a military doctor, but my grandfather did not agree. He was not young anymore and had a stubborn personality. He was afraid that I would secretly go, so he sent me to Shifeng County and even sent people to watch over me.”

“It’s not that I want to say it, but if I really wanted to go, he wouldn’t be able to stop me. It’s also because I’m afraid of making him angry that he would stay here obediently.”

Jian Qingqing listened with relish. In the era of her previous life, the formula for the numbing powder had long disappeared in the flood of history. It was likely that it had once fallen into the hands of a certain clan and became the clan’s secret formula. Later on, it disappeared along with the disappearance of this family clan. It was just that she did not know that the current formula for the numbing powder was different from that one.

She said, “So this formula can only be learned by the people of your Wei family? Didn’t you think of teaching it to your disciple? This way, perhaps a disciple who learned it coincidentally became a military doctor. This way, he can save another person on the battlefield.”

“Well..” Wei Wusheng said with some hesitation, “I don’t really care about these things, but my old man might die from anger if he knew about it. Sister, you’re still young, so it’s normal that you don’t know about these things. The formula is the foundation of a family, so how can you casually teach it to others? What if that person has ulterior motives?”

“But how can you all improve if you’re all hiding it? Wouldn’t it be better to gather the strengths of all the families? For example, this family is very good at treating colds, that family is good at treating fevers, and your family is good at treating external injuries. Wouldn’t it be good for everyone to interact and communicate with each other? Otherwise, wouldn’t it be a pity if this family all disappeared because of the disaster? The people will also suffer more, right?”

Looking at Wei Wusheng’s thoughtful expression, Jian Qingqing felt that he was not as pedantic as some people in this era. He was actually able to listen to her ‘Avant-garde’ thoughts. If it was anyone else, they might have scolded her for daydreaming.

However, if it was possible, she was looking forward to the day when all flowers would bloom. With communication, there would be progress, and the people would benefit from it. It could be considered a win-win situation.
