The Crown Prince That Sells Medicine Chapter 99
Episode 99. Twisted History (1)
Dudududududu…!
Horseshoes run. No, Mana is running. It runs with the momentum to kick the ground and, in fact, smash gallstones. Run and bump into each other.
Bang.
Took-!
“…Geek!”
Rachiel clenched her molars.
And I thought quietly.
Mana released by Adeline. Mana hit a gallstone. So the shock wave that occurred. The moment this is brought in is always dramatic. Every time I absorb a shock wave and deal with a blow, I feel like my esophagus and sphincter are giving me a high five and shouting for a replacement.
‘Is it still far?’
Rakiel shook his head and looked up. Bumpy brown beads were reflected in Bboboki’s flame fin display floating in front. It was the last gallstone in Adeline’s gallbladder.
Almost everything is broken. All you have to do is a little more. My heart was filled with emotion.
‘under. It was long.’
It was a journey of exactly 16 days. How many times have you endured the shock waves of mana emitted by Adeline? 100 times? 200 times? no. To put it mildly, 500 times seemed like enough.
‘I fainted a total of 6 times during that time. I’ve been nauseous… too many times to count.’
Have you ever experienced days of such high intensity of abuse? There was absolutely nothing. It was the greatest hardship ever. But now this has come to an end.
“Well, it’s almost over. “Maybe I just need one more hit.”
“really?”
“yes.”
“That’s too bad.”
“…yes?”
“no. going?”
Took-!
“Geek!”
It was as soon as Adeline finished speaking. The most intense shock wave so far came rushing in. I wasn’t even ready and sleeping. I feel like my solar plexus is being pierced. In the past, it was such a shock that I would have definitely fainted.
But not anymore.
‘That’s it!’
I endured it. I raised my head. I first checked the gallstones on the display.
‘…done!’
The gallstones were properly broken down. The moment I confirmed it, a refreshing sound rang in my ears.
Ding dong!
[You have firmly withstood 501 mana shock waves coming from outside.]
[During this process, you have tried to absorb and eliminate the shock waves by using your Ashamic Mind techniques to the limit. This special history has become a valuable experiential basis for growing your mana circle to a more solid level.] [
New options are opened in the Shabby Mind Method.]
[Skill-only option ②: Cannot be destroyed – When activated, the mana circle’s durability increases. Protects the nervous system. During the time the optional function is activated, you can withstand any shock without fainting or losing consciousness. (Limit: Can be activated once a day / 5 minutes)]
“….”
What is this?
It was an unexpected message.
‘Is it impossible to sink? When activated, you will never faint for 5 minutes once a day?’
My mouth watered.
Ding dong!
[The five organs and six parts cheer for the new skill option.]
[Heart: Withstood over 500 shock waves. We have become stronger. Trahahaha!]
[Lungs: Lungs, lungs!]
[Captain: But that wasn’t an easy task.]
[Soy sauce: Even if it’s cheap and only costs 500 lashes, you’ll have to find a place at Daenggeun Market haha]
[Stomach: Our owner chose it. Since it was a long road, I had to endure it with all my might, haha]
[The five intestines and six families sponsored you with 2200 HP.]
[Currently possessed HP: 4700]
‘Good!’
Rakiel clenched his fists. As a bonus, we received HP sponsorship. In addition, ‘impossible to destroy’ also smelled like a sweet option.
‘of course. You’re immune to fainting for 5 minutes a day. ‘There will be a few situations in life where you feel like you might faint, but you shouldn’t.’
You may encounter an emergency situation or a situation where you have to run away after being beaten by someone like a princess. It can be useful(?) even when you want to eat at least one more bite of your late-night snack, but you feel like you’re going to pass out because you’re so sleepy.
‘Anyway, it worked out.’
Rachiel grumbled with satisfaction. It wasn’t the time to be this satisfied yet. He spoke to the princess.
“Phew, it’s all over.”
“…really?”
“yes. Can you see it here?”
He pointed to the broken gallstone in the fin display. The princess licked her lips.
“okay. Well then, this treatment will be over. But-”
She looked back.
“I’ve always wondered, what happens to gallstones that break like that? Is it possible that it is absorbed into the body and disappears?”
“no.”
Rakiel shook his head.
“It will be released naturally out of the body.”
“how?”
“Same as what I ate.”
“….”
“Keuungcha.”
“….”
“Hmm, anyway. Congratulations. However, it is still too early to be reassured. “Because the treatment itself is not completely finished.”
“Is there really anything left to treat?”
“yes. “From now on, we need to maintain it consistently.”
Rachiel said. It was natural. Gallstone treatment does not end with just removing gallstones. Rather, what comes after is more important.
“Originally, if there are too many gallstones, the cleanest way is to remove the gallbladder itself through surgery. But I don’t have the skills to perform that type of surgery. So only the gallstones were removed. So if you don’t take care of it in the future, gallstones will form again.”
“…It will happen again?”
“yes. “The fact that gallstones of this size have already formed at such a young age means that the princess is prone to gallstones.”
“….”
“But don’t worry. “I will prescribe medication to help bile drain smoothly.”
“If I eat that, won’t I get gallstones?”
“As the bile flows well, it won’t accumulate and there will be less of it forming like stones. Even if small particles form, they will be easily swept away by the smooth flow of gallstones. “Before the grains grow large and cause problems.”
It was true. That will be the basis of management. Rachiel spoke with that in mind.
“So I’m going to make you Injinho-tang (茵蔯蒿湯). “First, I will take it consistently for 15 days and see whether the decoction suits my constitution and whether the circulation and excretion of bile is smooth.”
“What if it suits your constitution well?”
“You have to eat it for the rest of your life.”
“….”
“Isn’t that obvious?”
“….”
“Why is your expression like that….”
“I wonder if it’s Injinhotang or something, and it tastes like elephant armpits.”
“I can’t help it. “Medicine that is good for the body is bitter to the mouth.”
Rakiel smiled brightly. It didn’t matter whether the princess felt the taste was terrible or not because it wasn’t for her to eat.
He immediately started producing Injinhotang. Injinhotang was mentioned throughout the Chinese Han Dynasty’s Sanghanron (傷寒論) and the Joseon Dynasty’s Donguibogam (東醫寶鑑).
‘In particular, it is a prescription that senior Heo Jun(?), an all-time legend of Oriental medicine, also enjoyed using. There is no better treatment when there are signs of jaundice or moist heat, symptoms of heat building up in the liver and gallbladder.’
In particular, it was an excellent decoction for preventing the formation of gallstones. He took out the pre-prepared ingredients. The method of making Injinho-tang was relatively simple. First, I took care of In Jin-ho. I measured the timing. I added rhubarb and gardenia at exactly the right time. It was gently heated for a while over a moderate fire.
How long was it like that?
Bubble bubble!
Injinhotang was completed amidst the rising steam.
“….”
Princess Adeline looked at the decoction in the bowl with an uneasy look. Honestly, I don’t want to eat it. From the smell, I could already feel the force overwhelming(?) the person. But I don’t know if you know how they feel. The crown prince just smiled as if he was having fun.
“Now, this is the decoction that I brewed with all my heart. “Let’s eat it slowly and carefully.”
“Do I really have to eat this?”
“yes.”
“Is it really the only medicine that smells this horrible?”
“yes.”
“What exactly does it mean that I will get better if I eat this?”
“Do you want to hear it?”
“yes.”
Adeline nodded. This strange decoction called Injinho-tang is in my hand. If I was only going to eat this once, I could eat it as much as I wanted.
But the problem was that I had to eat this for the rest of my life. I hated that. It was already terrible. If possible, I wanted to make an excuse to switch to a different medicine that was easier to take. However, her earnest wish was swept away by the subsequent explanation of Rakiel’s research paper on the apnea 16-beat Jajinmori rhythm.
“Then I’ll tell you. Hmm! First, according to a research paper investigating the effect and mechanism of action of Injinho-tang on cholelithiasis, Injinho-tang treatment improved biochemical abnormalities in serum and liver and adjusted biliary imbalance in experimental animals. In addition, the increased expression of ATP-binding cassette subfamily G member 5/8 scavenger receptor class B type l and Niemann-Pick C1 Like 1 observed in the liver and small intestine was reversed by Injinho-tang.”
“….”
“Based on the results of these experiments. It can be concluded that Injinho-tang can improve bile cholesterol supersaturation and control of cholesterol metabolism in experimental animals with cholelithiasis induced by a stone-inducing diet. This means that the formation of gallstones can be suppressed very efficiently.”
“….”
“Princess?”
“…yes?”
“Is this enough of an explanation?”
“I was wrong.”
I don’t know what he meant, but I felt like I should apologize first. It felt like all the explanations came in through my left ear hole, hit my frontal lobe, and then escaped out my right ear hole.
‘I don’t even know what to retort.’
In the end, she surrendered. I took a one-shot of Injinhotang. The taste was still bitter.
‘…This time it tastes like sea turtle armpits.’
Is it at least better than the taste of elephant armpits? Adeline held back her nausea and hurriedly accepted the candy that Rachiel gave her. That was the moment when she chewed the candy.
Ding dong!
A welcome message appeared before Rachiel’s eyes.
[You gave the patient: Adeline Beauharnais Amboise to take the Injinhotang that you prepared yourself.]
[Skill: The effectiveness of the medicine has increased by 10% due to the effect of Decoction Preparation (Lv.1).]
[Patient: Adeline is you. All gallstones in my body were removed through aggressive extracorporeal shock wave therapy. Also, by consistently taking the Injinho-tang you prescribed, I am now able to prevent future gallstones and various diseases caused by them.] [The
medical billing (Lv.2) skill is activated.]
[Patient: Adeline is providing your treatment . Through this, they received the benefit of a total life expectancy extension of 67 years and 10 months. Accordingly, you are settled a bonus life equal to 1/1950 of 67 years and 10 months.]
[A bonus life of 12.52 days has been calculated.]
[The minimum unit of life to be settled is 1 day.]
[Bonus life to be settled This will be rounded off.]
[A total of 13 days of bonus life will be settled.]
[Your estimated life expectancy: 176 days]
‘Nice. exorcism!’
My clenched fists naturally gained strength.
done. I finally did it. The princess was completely cured. What if she only takes Injinho-tang consistently from now on? You will not die from gallstones. He will safely become the king of Amboise.
That’s it. The great war that overthrew the Magentano imperial family in the novel Demon Sword Emperor. That terrible devastation will not occur. It will be prevented.
‘Because Javilon, the tyrant who started the great war in the original work, will not receive the throne. ‘As long as the princess is alive and well, it will continue to be like that.’
So you did it. It was rewarding. It was overwhelming. I wanted to sincerely congratulate Princess Adeline. But it was that moment.
Thump thump thump!
Suddenly, someone outside knocked urgently on the door of the clinic. Could it be that he is an emergency patient? Around the time that thought occurred to me.
“Princess! Are you inside! “This is an urgent report from the home country!”
Amboise’s characteristic intoned cry rang out.
“A civil war has broken out due to a rebellion launched by Javilon, a subsidiary royal family in the western part of the country!”
