Dragon?
The smile on Lin Jie's face froze. What the hell?
"Dragons are also medicine." Was Li Shizhen's methods so wild?
Or did I give her the wrong book? Not the "Compendium of Materia Medica", but the "Dungeons & Dragons" rule book?
Or was this little girl playing a joke on him?
No, wait.
Lin Jie looked at the blinking Prima in front of him. Those pure and innocent eyes filled with curiosity were so beautiful.
Her thirst for knowledge wouldn't lie, so she definitely wasn't playing a prank.
Considering the cultural differences between the planes, she must have misunderstood something.
Lin Jie maintained his stiff smile and began to search his memory for the "Compendium of Materia Medica" he had read a long time ago.
The "Compendium of Materia Medica" was a book he had read in high school. His impression of it was a bit vague now, but the only thing worth praising was his memory. In any case, he still remembered some things. The first website was m.9biquge. com
Then the corner of his mouth twitched. He realized that there really was a medicine called "dragon."
Then it was fine.
Li Shizhen's methods were really wild.
The "Compendium of Materia Medica" book was very organized and divided into categories.
For example, it was divided into water, fire, stone, and so on. Of course, it also included the most important herb.
For example, plants were divided into grains, vegetables, fruits, and so on. Animals were divided into insects, scales, and so on.
And this "dragon" belonged to the scales.
But it wasn't a Western dragon, nor was it a Huaxia dragon (Of course, he didn't know what Li Shizhen was thinking). It referred to the fossil bones of some mammals, such as elephants, rhinoceroses, horses, and so on.
Lin Jie sighed. It really was a false alarm. After staying in the other world for so long, the first thing that popped into his mind was a winged dragon.
Sure enough, it was just a difference in understanding.
Lin Jie found the crux of the problem, but he was in a dilemma.
How should he explain it to this child?
Regarding the conjecture that the ancient dragon of Huaxia might be a general term for all vertebrates in ancient times, he could talk about it for three hours without stopping, from literature to research examples, and then logically deduce that the dragon referred to mammal fossils.
But to the people of this world, dragons were four-legged creatures with horns on their heads, wings on their backs, and tails on their backs.
No one had studied this thing, so it was hard to explain the principle.
"Mr. Lin?"
Prima waited for a long time but did not get an answer. She found that the young man in front of her seemed to have entered a state of reminiscence.
It was as if the word "dragon" reminded him of something in the past …
Prima looked pensive.
The ancient dragons were almost as old as the original witches. Mr. Lin must have experienced a lot during that chaotic era.
Lin Jie, who was deep in thought, suddenly woke up. He looked at Prima awkwardly, coughed twice, and said, "I'm sorry, I suddenly remembered something from the past."
Lin Jie thought to himself that he had to think of a way to fool them.
What kind of person was Mr. Lin? He was the God of Chicken Soup and a life coach. He could not show his cowardice in front of the child, which would damage his reliable image.
Suddenly, Lin Jie raised his eyebrows and blinked his eyes. Wait … Although he could not explain the principle, he did have a dragon fossil!
The Dragon Heart Fossil that Cherry had given him was still in his basement.
After he absorbed the special power in it, the heart was deflated and completely turned into a stone.
It was better to make the best of it!
Anyway, it had already turned into a stone. Even if he ground it into powder and drank it as a medicine, he would at most have diarrhea. There would not be any serious problems.
Moreover, Prima specialized in pharmaceutical research, so she definitely knew more about pharmacology than him. She would not act recklessly.
If it was useless, he could say that it was not properly preserved.
Lin Jie coughed twice, and said, "Indeed, the real dragons have disappeared, but their fossil remains still exist. This part can be used as medicine."
Prima sensed something from his tone, so she looked at him with an expectant gaze.
Lin Jie smiled and said indifferently, "Actually, I have a rare and precious dragon heart fossil here. If you want to study it, I can give it to you."
It was just right that this thing was useless in the basement except collecting dust.
"Thank you very much! I, I don't know how to repay you. I, if I can get the result of my research and you need it, I will definitely give you the medicine! "
Prima was so excited that her face turned red. Lin Jie realized that this child was usually shy and introverted, but when it came to pharmaceutical research, she would be very excited.
If she grew up, she would be a standard science maniac.
Lin Jie smiled, and said, "Then I will have to trouble you in advance."
Prima immediately changed back to her mimosa mode. She lowered her head and shook her head, and said, "No, no trouble …"
Lin Jie kindly said, "Alright, the problem is solved. Continue reading and recuperate. I'll help you investigate your sister's matter for the time being."
Prima was stunned, and then she thanked him again. She held the book and buried her red cheeks. She took a deep breath and calmed down before she continued reading.
After a while.
Prima dared to raise her hand.
Lin Jie said naturally, "Prima, please ask."
Prima asked the question that she had been wanting to ask since she started reading the book, "Using human skulls, placentas, and ashes to make medicine … Will there be any other hidden dangers?"
She was a little hesitant because this question was very sensitive.
It was as if she was questioning whether he was immoral.
But Lin Jie was too kind, and since the successors of Wapu trusted him so much, Prima felt that she could choose, or rather, she had to trust him.
If she trusted him wholeheartedly, she would have to present everything to him without hiding anything.
"…???"
Lin Jie's eyes twitched. He was wrong. Li Shizhen's skin was really thick.
Did these things really exist?
He carefully thought back and remembered what these things were in the Compendium of Materia Medica.
The top of the skull, the human body (or the human placenta), and the soil of the crematorium.
They were all recorded in the book, and the smell and main symptoms were also written … For example, the top of the skull was a perfect example of nourishing the body and nourishing the mind.
Lin Jie had the academic spirit of not saying things he didn't understand, so he said seriously, "If these things really have such effects as medicine materials, then why not use them as long as they are from legitimate sources? But if they have no use and are only used to satisfy your curiosity or other improper desires, then you must not use them. Do you understand? "
"The most important thing is whether you have a clear conscience in your heart, whether you can contribute to the world and develop better medicine to create your own value."
Boss Lin returned to his old profession and earnestly changed the topic, "You must understand that all values flow. These herbs may be ordinary, but in your hands, they will become priceless treasures. The difference between the two is your current hard work."
Prima nodded in a daze, the confusion in her eyes dissipating.
She understood!
The flowing mysteries gave the high ranking people great power, and their flesh and bones, in the flowing, created even greater value!
This was the contribution of the high ranking people to the community!
And they, the pharmacists, were the people who seized this power!
