Chapter 193 "Elixir of Life"
That day happened to be Wang Yuyan's birthday, and Chen Mu specially accompanied her to watch a movie. The movie they watched was "Fist of Fury", which was currently a hit in the local area.
The passion for boxing and kicking in the film ignited the whole audience, and in comparison, other kung fu films pale in comparison.
While watching the movie, Wang Yuyan suggested to Chen Mu that since four-year-olds were so smart, maybe they should have more children.
Chen Mu was very supportive of this and said that as long as she wanted, they could have more children because they were fully capable of raising them.
Later, the two went shopping together to celebrate Wang Yuyan's birthday, and Chen Mu decided to accompany her the whole day.
Wang Yuyan also urged Chen Mu to prepare medicinal food for her.
After taking the medicine, the two returned to the room and spent the night together.
A month later, Zhou Xiaobai came to the clinic to study every week accompanied by Tong Xiaomei. Chen Mu would give her guidance in his spare time to help her quickly master medical knowledge.
Xiao Chunsheng would also visit the clinic from time to time to thank Chen Mu for helping his father regain his health.
In the final chapter, Lin Xiaoyu drives to visit again.
Ever since Old Man Lin paid 100,000 yuan for medical expenses and took Chen Mu's medicine, his old cough has completely recovered and he looks younger. He now feels that spending the 100,000 yuan is a worthwhile investment.
When the medicine was almost running out, he sent someone to ask Chen Mu to come back for a follow-up visit.
"Doctor Chen, I'm here to pick you up to do a follow-up checkup for Old Man Lin."
Lin Xiaoyu said.
“Don’t bother, take these medicines back to him. This is his second course of treatment. These medicines are enough for him to recover from his lung disease within a month.
Moreover, his condition has been brought under control and there is no possibility of his condition worsening."
Chen Mu said.
"Why don't you go and take a look yourself? In case you've overlooked something."
Lin Xiaoyu asked carefully.
"It's no big deal, just take the medicine back.
If there is anything unusual, you can always come to me for trouble."
Chen Mu handed the medicine to Lin Xiaoyu.
He really didn't want to get entangled with Old Man Lin because he guessed that Old Man Lin might be planning some kind of plan.
But he didn't know that all of Old Man Lin's actions were under the surveillance of Old Man Wu.
Helpless Lin Xiaoyu could only take the medicine back.
At this time, Zhou Xiaobai brought Chen Mu's surgical notes and asked, "Brother, I don't understand something here. Can you explain it to me in detail?"
Chen Mu took the notes and gave her a detailed explanation.
Zhou Xiaobai immediately understood, thanked him repeatedly, and continued to study the notes while taking notes.
Recently, Chen Mu is busy developing a new medicine. He tries to use the vitality of plants to make a pill that can prolong life.
After trying again and again, he found that the elixir made with the vitality of plants was very effective in recovering from internal and external injuries.
However, it is very difficult to truly lock the vitality within it and achieve the effect of prolonging life.
In order to succeed, Chen Mu tried different plants, combining the essence extracted from the heart of a hundred-year-old willow with the aura of blood orchids, ginseng and other plants, and added special peach juice and other auxiliary materials.
Finally, he successfully produced a batch of pills.
After tasting one, although he felt no obvious change, Chen Mu was convinced that his pill could really prolong his life.
However, since he had lived for more than 3,600 years, the effect of extending his life did not have much impact on him.
He didn't know how many years the drug could add to his life.
Suddenly, he saw Tong Xiaomei who was studying medicinal herbs seriously.
Chen Mu smiled and said, "Xiaomei, come here."
Tong Xiaomei was puzzled for a moment, then walked over.
Chen Mu felt her pulse and found that she was in very good health. If she could maintain this health, she could live to about 9 years old.
Tong Xiaomei was confused because she felt that she was not feeling unwell.
"what's wrong?"
Tong Xiaomei asked again.
"Nothing, just take this pill first, I'll take your pulse later."
Chen Mu handed her a pill.
Tong Xiaomei took it without hesitation and swallowed the pill.
The pill melted immediately in her mouth, and a warm feeling spread throughout her body, almost making her cry out in comfort.
She sat down quickly and felt as if she was wrapped in her mother's womb, which was a very mysterious feeling.
"Brother, what kind of medicine is this? I feel so weird after taking it."
After a while, Tong Xiaomei gradually calmed down, her mind full of questions.
Chen Mu smiled slightly and said, “My latest attempt is to develop a panacea that can prolong life, but after several trials, I found that most of the pills I made are just some repair and healing pills, and these effects are not as good as the beauty pills.
But this time I have a new idea, and I should be able to make a breakthrough.
"
Tong Xiaomei exclaimed, "Ah? Is there such a magical medicine that can prolong life?"
"It is not difficult for me to make drugs that extend life by ten or twenty years. I have made them before. However, it is more challenging to increase lifespan even further, mainly because the herbs needed are very rare.
"Chen Mu explained.
"What about the pill I just took?" Tong Xiaomei continued to ask.
"It's too early to say, the full effect of the drug will have to wait until tomorrow.
I will give you a detailed diagnosis tomorrow, but don't worry. Even if this medicine is not for the purpose of prolonging life, it has the effect of strengthening the body, and you should have felt it.
"Chen Mu said in a relaxed tone.
“Yes, I do feel like a different person, full of energy and strength.
"Tong Xiaomei responded.
“Don’t spread this matter outside. Remember, don’t mention it to anyone, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.
"Chen Mu warned cautiously.
Tong Xiaomei nodded to show her understanding. She also knew that if this strange thing became known to others, it would undoubtedly attract the covetousness of those greedy and powerful people.
At the same time, Zhou Xiaobai was still immersed in books in the study, but he had no idea what was happening between Chen Mu and Tong Xiaomei.
It was not until noon that Zhou Xiaobai walked out of the study. When he saw Tong Xiaomei, he was stunned: "Xiaomei, you seem..." He couldn't tell exactly where the changes were.
"What's wrong, Xiaobai? Am I different from before?" Tong Xiaomei asked curiously.
“Well, I feel like you’ve become more beautiful and more attractive than before.
"Zhou Xiaobai commented.
Tong Xiaomei couldn't help but smile. She ran to the bathroom and looked in the mirror. She seemed to feel that she had really changed, but she found it difficult to describe.
Could it be the effect of that pill?
“It’s time for dinner.
"At this time, Chen Mu's shouting came from a distance.
Zhou Xiaobai and Tong Xiaomei hurried to the restaurant and found that Chen Mu had already prepared a sumptuous lunch.
Zhou Xiaobai has become accustomed to the exquisite food here, although he was shocked by the luxury of the ingredients when he first came to Chen Mu's place, because the food made by Chen Mu is very luxurious both visually and tastefully.
Even some ingredients she had never seen before, such as bird's nest, sea cucumber and shark fin, and occasionally bear paw, became a delicacy called "The Sea Reflecting the Sun and the Moon" for Chen Mu, meaning that Chen Mu enjoyed delicacies from mountains and sea in an eclectic manner.
As for bear paw, there is an interesting story behind it.
Chen Mu had previously captured a bear and raised it in the Immortal Doctor's Secret Realm.
Whenever he wanted to make that dish, he would take off one of the bear's paws, and then use his magical skills to make the bear grow another one. After countless times, the bear had become deeply impressed by Chen Mu's skills, and even wondered what kind of amazing master he was following.
By now, the bear's paws had been taken away countless times, and there were quite a few paws stored in the secret realm.
The next morning, Tong Xiaomei and Zhou Xiaobai arrived early again.
Chen Mu arrived at almost nine o'clock, but the two had been waiting here since seven o'clock.
Zhou Xiaobai went to the study to read, while Chen Mu pulled Tong Xiaomei aside and took her pulse carefully, with a look of shock on his face.
Tong Xiaomei saw Chen Mu's surprised expression and couldn't help but ask curiously: "What's wrong, Brother Chen?"
She had hardly slept well the previous night, but by the next morning, she felt full of energy, and even the effect of the medicine had just slowly worn off by the time she arrived at the clinic.
Chen Mu put down the cup in his hand, looked at Tong Xiaomei firmly, and said: "Xiaomei, there is something I really want to tell you. Maybe you will feel that this matter is a happy or sad thing for you, it is not certain yet."
"What happened?"
Tong Xiaomei's expression suddenly became nervous.
"The pill you took does have the effect of extending your life, and the effect is very significant. I'm afraid it can make your life span reach over 150 years old."
"what..."
Tong Xiaomei almost screamed out, and immediately covered her mouth with her hands, and asked in surprise: "Brother, is this true?"
Chen Mu nodded affirmatively, and then said: "But there is one more thing you need to pay attention to.
This elixir contains blood orchid ingredients, so when you reach the age of eighty, you may encounter some situations that will give you a headache..."
"what's the situation?"
Tong Xiaomei asked anxiously.
"Perhaps your appearance will remain as youthful as it is now."
Chen Mu explained.
"what?"
Tong Xiaomei was even more shocked, but then she showed joy, "Brother, is this true? This is really great! Being able to live to 150 years old and still stay young is of course a good thing!"
Chen Mu also laughed and said, "Imagine that when you are eighty years old, walking on the street, and an eighteen-year-old boy presents you with a bouquet of flowers and wants to date you, will you be happy to accept this situation?"
"Haha."
Tong Xiaomei couldn't help laughing at this idea, "Brother, this is just a joke, but if it really happened, I think I would be very surprised."
"I must apologize to you because I let you take this pill without telling you the effect."
Chen Mu said apologetically.
"It's okay, brother. I will support you no matter what you do."
Tong Xiaomei looked at Chen Mu seriously, with deep emotion in her eyes.
In fact, Chen Mu had reservations about the efficacy of this pill. The reason why Tong Xiaomei could live more than 150 years was because the pill could at least extend her life by 100 years, or even longer, and it also had the miraculous effect of keeping her youthful appearance. This pill could be called an "elixir of life."
.
Because living to 200 years old is considered immortality and having an ageless appearance is real.
