Only the Xu Family remains. If they don’t have it, we’ll have to use other herbs as substitutes, but the effects are questionable.
Soone went to inquire.
This inquiry alard Mr. An, who imdiately closed his practice and ca over. After confirming what Lin Miao ant by "Millennium Bone," he went ho to search his dicine storeroom for a long ti, and eventually managed to find several types of bones.
The bones of animals from over ten thousand years ago that have been preserved and turned into fossils are certainly not easy to obtain.
Without archaeological excavations in this world, even if they are dug up, they may be discarded or poorly kept due to unrecognizability.
No one would have guessed they could be used as an herb.
The possibility of inscriptions on these bones in this world is unknown, but if known for centuries, they’d likely be even scarcer if used dicinally.
In the dictionary of ancient Chinese, everything under the universe could be used dicinally, including certain parts of ourselves, but let’s not delve into that.
As for magnets, they are relatively easier to find, but they need processing and cannot be used directly. The magnetite must be repeatedly forged in a "dulu" (a small crucible made from fire-resistant brick) until slightly red before being quenched in vinegar. During the forging, control of the heat is crucial; overheating will turn it into iron and render it unusable.
Magnet: Spicy, salty, cold in nature, enters the liver and kidney ridians. Can direct the tal energy of the lung into the kidneys. It’s very hard and must be processed and quenched to change its properties for use in mutual suppression!
Treating this condition is truly challenging.
Lin Miao handed the processing thod to Guan Biyun, who gladly took on the task, enriching her knowledge of herb preparation.
As for how Lin Miao knew these thods, she didn’t ask. Everyone has their secrets, and Lin Miao was taught by a ntor.
Perhaps he learned this from his ntor.
As for why this ntor didn’t pass on his skills to his daughter but to Lin Miao, it aligns with the usual tradition of favoring sons over daughters. After all, Lin Miao would represent the Sun Family in the future, carrying on their dical heritage.
But this disciple greatly surpassed the ntor, which isn’t unusual. If students didn’t surpass teachers, how could dicine progress?
Sun Youwei’s talent in pharmacology amazed Guan Biyun. If she hadn’t already taken Lien Yurou as her student, she would have loved to ntor Sun Youwei.
Yet, she feared having little to teach her since Lin Miao might know even more; he didn’t need her guidance.
The "Dream Host" condition isn’t unprecedented. Though rare, neither Mr. Jia nor Mr. An could find effective treatnts in their dical texts after a thorough search, only descriptions in Miscellaneous Difficulties.
Lin Miao provided a clear prescription with rare, unheard-of ingredients. Their effects were unknown, sparking interest from Mr. Jia and Mr. An.
The patient’s dicine costs were waived to test the prescription’s effectiveness.
After preparation, the magnet was tested and deed qualified by Lin Miao, then brewed according to his instructions.
Following the first dose, the woman was sent ho, advised to return the next day.
The following day, she reported continued dreams at night but reduced night sweats, less headache, and alleviated "fire wrapping waist" symptoms without heart palpitations.
Lin Miao checked her pulse and instructed continued dication.
After two doses, a follow-up showed symptoms nearly gone. An additional five doses solidified the recovery, nearly curing her.
Both Mr. An and Mr. Jia were astonished by the recovery, amazed that such a difficult condition was easily addressed, even though the ingredients were hard to obtain. As long as treatnt is possible, lives can be saved.
Mr. An ca to understand Xia Yuan’s brazenness in attending lectures, even under the pretense of visiting his "daughter."
Thinking of his own Xu Qixi, Mr. Xu sighed, wishing she had Xia Zhu’s determination, allowing him secret attendance and many missed opportunities.
He resolved to discuss Lin Miao’s promising future with Xu Zheng, realizing following his rise would yield imasurable benefits.
...
It was later revealed the woman’s ailnt stemd from a miscarriage. Believing she couldn’t conceive again, she fell into despair, triggering subsequent problems.
A miscarriage indeed affects future pregnancies but is not absolute. Protection during conception can reduce miscarriage likelihood.
This varies by individual.
With dication and psychological counseling, the woman no longer felt burdened, naturally recovering physically.
Consequently, Xu Qixi, previously grounded, was allowed out again. The Xu Family Patriarch might have reconsidered or had other motives.
Ye Xizhao died, and Su Chen openly expressed no romantic interest in Xu Qixi, only viewing her as a sister, and withdrew, leaving only Zhong Yu.
The Xu Family had few options; Zhong Yu hailed from a prestigious lineage, marrying into the Xu Family wasn’t a disgrace.
