Chapter 940: Chapter 937: Junior Pharmacist

"Twenty percent certainty," Lin Tian said very frankly.

"Junior Brother Lin, do you know what I want to do right now? I want to smack you," Zi Yan rolled her eyes at Lin Tian and said deliberately, fiercely.

"Zi Yan, even I, your master, don’t have a twenty percent assurance, do you want to smack me too?" Jiang Xiu Ying glared at Zi Yan, educating her.

Zi Yan stuck out her tongue, not daring to speak. It was the first time Lin Tian saw his senior sister being so obedient.

"Twenty percent certainty, among the doctors I know, no one dares to say this, of course, except those who don’t know their limits," Jiang Xiu Ying said seriously.

"Thank you, Elder Jiang, for understanding. Actually, if I go back and read a bit, the twenty percent certainty could become forty percent, or even fifty percent, it’s not impossible," Lin Tian said honestly.

But his honesty startled everyone, even Jiang Xiu Ying, who had spoken for him earlier, was in disbelief. Go back and read, are you learning on the spot? This is too unreliable.

"Xiao Tian, what book are you reading?" Jiang Xiu Ying couldn’t help but ask, though she just followed Lin Tian’s words without actually believing last-minute reading would make much of a difference.

"The Shennong Emperor’s Medical Scripture and the Pharmacist Notes; it’s just these two books are too complex. Although I can memorize them, I can’t fully understand," Lin Tian answered truthfully, as after all, the existence of these two books was no secret. Ning Luoxi and others knew about them.

"Pharmacist? Are you talking about the Pharmacist?" Jiang Xiu Ying walked a few steps toward Lin Tian, speaking with shock, her voice no longer calm as usual.

Lin Tian found her reaction a bit strange and nodded: "That’s right, it’s a Pharmacist. The Shennong Emperor’s Medical Scripture is an ancient text about pharmacists, and the Pharmacist Notes are the experimental notes of a pharmacist. Has Elder Jiang seen a pharmacist? But I heard pharmacists are a lost profession."

"The Ghost Valley Inheritor who treated Yun Hongxi years ago was not only a traditional healer but also a pharmacist. The elixir recipe he prescribed for Yun Hongxi was a pharmacist’s, otherwise, how could it have suppressed the yin energy for twenty years," Jiang Xiu Ying recalled, with an indescribable sense of nostalgia.

"I see, I’ve heard that pharmacists are quite powerful. Why didn’t that Ghost Valley Inheritor use a more powerful elixir recipe to heal the old man?" Lin Tian asked curiously.

Jiang Xiu Ying was baffled by the question, responding with confusion: "Do you think elixir recipes are so easy to obtain? Pharmacists have been lost for so long, and records of elixir recipes are scarce. Just think about how the Xiao Family has one elixir recipe, and it makes various forces restless. It shows how rare and precious elixir recipes are."

"The Ghost Valley Inheritor just happened to have an elixir recipe suitable for Yun Hongxi’s ailment, which was a big fortune, and at the time, the Ghost Valley Inheritor was only a junior pharmacist; even with a profound elixir recipe, he couldn’t produce the elixir," Jiang Xiu Ying said matter-of-factly.

Are elixir recipes really that precious? Lin Tian blinked, unable to comprehend; in the Shennong Emperor’s Medical Scripture, the second part is the "Elixir Recipe Section," which contains many recipes. And in the Pharmacist Notes, Oda Manaka also recorded many recipes and even experimental records.

Therefore, in Lin Tian’s impression, elixir recipes didn’t seem so rare. However, he didn’t say this out loud, as letting others know he possessed many elixir recipes could lead to a life of endless trouble in the future.

Although Ning Luoxi and others knew about the existence of the "Shennong Emperor’s Medical Scripture" and the "Pharmacist Notes," they didn’t know the contents, just like Lin Tian knew the Heavenly Master Girl had the "Demon Exorcism Records" but didn’t know the contents within.

"Uh, I guess I was overthinking," Lin Tian thought for a moment and said.

"How did you come up with a twenty percent certainty?" Jiang Xiu Ying asked, and the Yun Family people also looked at Lin Tian expectantly, as this concerned the old man’s life and death.

"I plan to combine the pharmacist techniques with the Nine Needle Technique, and after thinking it through overnight, I’ve got some clues," Lin Tian said vaguely.

"Xiao Tian, thank you for your hard work. Even for an old man’s affairs, you are putting in so much effort," Mr. Yun said apologetically.

"Why say that, Mr. Yun? I promised Xiao Tian to heal your injuries, and a man’s word must be kept. Besides, I truly admire Mr. Yun’s character. No matter what, I will find ways to help heal you," Lin Tian said earnestly.

"Dad, Xiao Tian, even if we have to treat him, we should fill our stomachs first, right? After a hard day, why not have dinner, rest for a night, and treat him tomorrow, what do you all say?" Yun Haoyu suggested.

He had his own thoughts in saying this; one was to let Lin Tian go back and rethink the treatment plan to increase the success rate, and the other was indeed for resting after a long day, feeling uneasy to let Lin Tian treat on an empty stomach.

Besides, while the young could endure, Mr. Yun, after a whole day of hassle, couldn’t.

With the Yun Family’s arrangements, Lin Tian and the whole Yun Family, along with Zi Yan and her mentor, finished dinner. As for An Xiaoru, she had already left by the time the meeting ended.

After dinner, Lin Tian bid farewell to everyone and returned to Yunxiang Inn, telling An Xiaoru not to let others disturb him, returned to his bedroom, and sat cross-legged on the bed once again.

This time, Lin Tian was neither training nor reading the "Shennong Emperor’s Medical Scripture," but replaying the "Pharmacist Notes" in his mind.

"Pharmacist Notes" is Oda Manaka’s handwritten notes, and the Zombie Gu was created by her. Eighteen years ago, Oda Manaka and her husband were hunted by Li Qingyun and others in Huaxia, her husband was killed, and she narrowly escaped.

The Yun Tian incident happened twenty years ago, just two years earlier. It is entirely possible that Oda Manaka was involved in that incident. Perhaps the Sun Shadow Association, seeing the past failure, sent Oda Manaka to continue lurking in Huaxia, triggering the pursuit incident.

Oda Manaka claimed she joined the Sun Shadow Association after being hunted, using their power for revenge, but her words were questionable from the start, possibly being associated with them earlier.

These matters became untraceable, and Lin Tian only wanted to find information about half-zombies and Zombie Gu from Oda Manaka’s notes to maybe find a treatment method, as the attackers were too similar to those created by Zombie Gu.

"Pharmacist Notes" kept flipping pages in Lin Tian’s mind like a movie, and he recalled the contents one by one. But after a long look, the notes contained no record of Zombie Gu.

Damn, I almost forgot, Zombie Gu belongs to Gu techniques, how could it possibly be in the Pharmacist Notes? Lin Tian cursed himself for being stupid.

The information about Zombie Gu and half-zombies must be on the Gu technique research data, but that batch of data was taken by Li Qingyun’s grandfather and grandson. Lin Tian really regretted not recording the data at the time.
