Novel Bin Chapter 421 - 421: If Only My Brothers Had Medicine Too!
He Chun was the youngest son in the family. His family was really poor, and his three brothers had asthma like him. Coincidentally, Yu Suisheng came to their hometown to recruit people. Before he started work, he could get an advance payment of one tael of silver. In order to obtain these one tael of silver to improve the family’s income, even if the future was a dangerous fire pit, he would jump into it without hesitation.
He Chun found the village chief to change his age by two years. He received two taels of silver and handed it to his family before secretly coming to the southern frontier.
Fortunately, he had food and drinks along the way. He was young and had received a lot of care, so he did not have an asthma attack.
Afraid that others would find out that he was sick, he did not want to join the recruitment event. He Chun hid his illness and successfully entered the woodworking factory to become an apprentice.
As an apprentice in the woodworking factory, he only earned one tael of silver a month. Most of the daily work he had to do was physical work, but He Chun was already very satisfied.
It was another exhausting day. On the way home from work, He Chun would take out a small notebook and revise the words he had learned that day.
When he had learnt all the words, he would have a chance to become an advanced master in the woodworking factory in the future and earn more money to bring back and improve his family’s situation.
Suddenly, a man who was rushing on his way accidentally knocked He Chun to the ground and his book fell beside him. He Chun wanted to pick it up, but his asthma suddenly acted up.
He Chun tried his best to control himself and kept adjusting his breathing, but he was too afraid that others would realize that he had asthma and stop him from working.
He Chun became nervous, and his breathing became even faster.
The man who had knocked him down saw that He Chun’s face was red, looking like he was about to die, and he was at a loss. The onlookers hurriedly reminded him, “Hurry up and bring him to a doctor!”
The man suddenly reacted and carried He Chun to the doctor.
There was an apothecary in the pharmacy, and also two doctors. The man immediately rushed into the crowded pharmacy and said, “Someone! Save him! He’s going to die!”
As soon as he said that, the surrounding people immediately made room for him.
The doctor had yet to arrive. Seeing that He Chun’s face was red and he was out of breath, someone immediately said, “Oh no, he has asthma. He won’t be able to breathe and will die immediately!”
Soon, Doctor Xiao appeared. He only took a brief look at He Chun’s condition before saying to the Apothecary, “Hurry up and get the Shuning Medicine!”
The Apothecary ran to the top of the medicine cabinet and handed a jar of medicine to Doctor Xiao.
Doctor Xiao pulled the lid off the Shuning medicine and placed the mouthpiece into He Chun’s mouth. “Breathe in! Keep breathing!”
When He Chun heard Doctor Xiao’s words, it was as if he had caught a life-saving herb. He listened to his instructions and breathed on the Shuning medicine for 10 seconds.
When the Shuning medicine entered his body, most of the stifling feeling dissipated. He Chun immediately felt much better.
He couldn’t help but hold the Shuning medicine and take a few more breaths until his condition was suppressed in less than a minute in front of everyone.
Everyone widened their eyes in surprise and called Doctor Xiao a divine doctor.
Doctor Xiao did not dare to take the credit. He smiled and said, “This is all thanks to the doctor who developed the Shuning Medicine. Everyone, don’t misunderstand!”
Everyone asked which divine doctor it was. Doctor Xiao did not know either. He only knew that this divine doctor did not care about fame and fortune and had developed many special medicines. He did not reveal his identity, causing many doctors who had developed a new prescription to also be unwilling to leave their names behind.
There were benefits to doing this. Even if some medicine did not work on some patients, they would not be scolded badly. But they would still receive a share of the money behind their backs.
Even so, everyone still praised Doctor Xiao for having good judgement and quick reactions. Moreover, this pharmacy had all the divine medicine for saving people!
If not for the timely use of medicine, He Chun’s situation at that time would have been dangerous.
After He Chun’s breathing stabilized, he looked at the medicine bottle in his hand in a daze. However, he suddenly cried.. “If only my brothers had this medicine too!”
