There was a special Chinese medicine section on the second floor of the library. Su Yun quickly rummaged through this area. He finally found the answer in a thick Chinese medicine encyclopedia.

The Coptis quinquesecta mentioned in these herbs could only be found in some parts of China. However, the records were all in remote areas. There were few people and the roads were dangerous.

No wonder this herb was so difficult to find. According to the book, there were almost no more wild populations of Coptis quinquesecta. In addition, the number of individuals was very small and was already below the stable survival limit, so they were on the verge of extinction.

It was no wonder that the shop owner from before would say that this Coptis quinquesecta was a medicinal ingredient more precious than saffron.

Looking further down, the Huangbai required in the prescription was also very precious. This was a level-two protected medicinal herb in the country. It was the dry bark of a plant, the Yellow Skin Tree.

Five years ago, data showed that the demand for Huangbai had reached 2.4 million kilograms, and based on its production cycle of 30 years, the remaining quantity could only be used for 16 years.

Although the last set of medicinal herb, Tiandong, was a Level 3 protected medicinal herb, the amount of oil it absorbed was not inferior to a Level 2 Huangbai. Many years ago, the wild Tiandong was overexploited, causing it to be almost extinct.

Although artificial planting had already begun, the growth requirements for Tiandong were very harsh. Moreover, the country had already tried its best not to use it for medicine.

After finally understanding the ins and outs of the matter, Su Yun became even more worried. These three rare medicinal herbs were probably impossible to find in the entire Hibiscus City. However, according to the shop owner from before, would some ancient Chinese medicine shops still have hidden trump cards?

When this thought appeared in Su Yun’s mind, he quickly thought of someone.

Barefoot Doctor, Master Lü.

When Su Yun was young, he had heard stories about this Chinese doctor. This Master Lü could be considered famous in Su Yun’s hometown, Fan City. Master Lü opened a shop in Su Yun’s hometown, but this shop did not sell medicine and did not do consultation services.

There was only a bell outside the simple house. If anyone asked for a doctor, they only needed to ring the bell. The reason why people gave Master Lü the name “Barefoot Strange Doctor” was because Master Lü’s ancestors were famous divine doctors in the vicinity for several generations.

By Master Lü’s time, he could already be considered a family of Chinese medicine for a few generations. However, Master Lü had a strange temper. If people with ordinary illnesses found him, he would ignore them. If it was some strange illness that could not be treated elsewhere, Master Lü would not accept a single cent and would rush to treat it.

As their family would never leave town, they did not need to use much money. After treating the people in town, they would basically only send some food. As time passed, Master Lü’s name spread nearby. Even the neighboring towns would travel thousands of miles to seek medical treatment.

But that was many years ago.

As science was promoted, Western medicine flourished. The town had already opened a health center and even a large hospital. Master Lü’s story would almost never be told to children again. It was even possible that Su Yun’s next generation would no longer know the name of the barefoot doctor.

However, the reason why he thought of Master Lü now was because their family had been Chinese medicine doctors for a few generations. Furthermore, in his memories, every time he passed by Master Lu’s house, he would always see him drying herbs in his courtyard.

If anyone had such a precious trump card, Su Yun could not think of anyone else other than Master Lü.

It seemed that he had to pay a visit to this old Chinese doctor. After roughly understanding the preciousness of the herbs he needed, Su Yun gave up on the idea of continuing to search in the city.

It was probably impossible to find these three medicinal herbs in the city. The only hope was Master Lü, who had been practicing Chinese medicine for generations. It just so happened that Su Yun had not returned to his hometown since the last incident. He might as well take this opportunity to go home and visit this old Chinese doctor. Perhaps these troublesome problems could be easily resolved.

On the way back, Su Yun kept thinking about this matter. To him, the most important thing now was to confirm the prescription as soon as possible. But his memories of this old Chinese doctor were only from when he was young. He had occasionally seen him a few times, that was all. At that time, he still felt that the old Chinese doctor was sloppy and seemed a little strange.

After such a long time, Su Yun was not sure if there would be any changes. In fact, in his blurry memories, the old Chinese doctor seemed to be quite old back then. It was hard to sav if he was still alive.

Not only would he make a wasted trip back, but he might also bring the danger he was carrying home. This was something Su Yun did not want to see. Therefore, after returning home, Su Yun had an idea.

Sitting on the sofa, he picked up the phone and dialed the long-lost number. The call was quickly picked up, and a very familiar woman’s voice came from the other end. “Su Yun, is that you? How are you now? Are you alright?”

The person who answered the phone was Su Yun’s mother. From her anxious tone, it was obvious that she had been worried about Su Yun.

This made Su Yun’s heart ache. Even though she was so worried, she rarely took the initiative to call. It was as if she felt that it was an intrusion or that she did not want to become a burden to the child..
