Chapter 609_2
Of course, it soon became Liu Zheng who was about to cry.
"Tian, Miss Tian Tian, maybe we can hug later. It's hard to travel with all my ribs broken."
He said with difficulty.
"Ah, I'm really sorry."
Shi Tiantian quickly let go of him.
"It's okay."
Liu Zheng comforted.
"After all, they're all broken anyway."
He sighed deeply.
As expected of a Stone Essence, the strength is really great.
"Let me handle it."
Bai San held Liu Zheng up with a suppressed chuckle, then took out eight willow branches from the medical box and buried them into Liu Zheng's flesh.
After that, he took out a jar of willow gum and evenly applied it to Liu Zheng's wounds.
Finally, he took out a bag of willow leaves and pasted them one by one onto the willow gum.
According to the "Compendium of Materia Medica," willow fluff, willow leaves, willow branches, willow root bark, and even willow gum, willow parasite, willow ear, and willow beetle can all be used as medicine, treating conditions like vomiting blood, bleeding wounds, facial sores, early-stage jaundice, swollen gums, toothaches caused by wind, and earaches with pus.
And "willow branch bone-setting" was even considered a notable science in modern times, with its "inventor" being hired as a special research fellow at the Academy of Medical Sciences.
Of course, in reality, "willow branch bone-setting" is naturally nonsense, but in the Metropolis, it's a genuine "medical skill."
"With Mr. Liu's constitution, you'll be healed within five minutes."
Bai San watched with a hint of envy as Liu Zheng visibly recovered.
If he had such a test subject, his medical skills would definitely advance by leaps and bounds.
Of course, it was just a thought.
Not to mention that his precious son was still waiting for Liu Zheng to save, and whether he could even defeat Liu Zheng was still uncertain.
"A little more medicinal dung, and the healing time can be halved."
Doctor Nile took out a Scarab.
"Actually, I don't think there's much difference between five minutes and two and a half minutes."
Liu Zheng tried to refuse.
"Our La Clan has a saying: a general must not fall sick or get injured during war, else no matter how brave his soldiers are, they will surely be defeated. You are our backbone, and not being fully healed for even a minute will affect the entire team's morale."
Doctor Nile said seriously.
"What you say makes sense, but I still suspect you just want me to eat dung."
He said squinting.
"Only you living beings would be so boring, and I'm still a doctor; you should trust my medical ethics."
Doctor Nile said with an unchanged expression.
"Alright."
Liu Zheng resignedly opened his mouth, allowing the medicinal dung to be squeezed into it.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Human, I didn't mean to."
Shi Tiantian said apologetically.
"I understand, Miss Tian Tian just wanted to express your gratitude. It's my own body that's too fragile."
He comforted.
"Yes, Mr. Human still needs a lot of training. When I was your size, I could already withstand a rocket head-on."
Shi Tiantian agreed.
"That's probably not something that can be quickly trained. Wait, why would you take a rocket head-on?"
Liu Zheng caught onto the highlight.
"One day, I sneaked out alone to play and stumbled upon a group of people having a picnic. I joyfully emerged to greet them, but they seemed startled and used all sorts of bang bang bang and da da da things to hit me."
"Though I wasn't really hurt, their impolite behavior did make me angry, so I killed them all."
"Later, my mother told me that the thing that hurt the most was called a rocket launcher."
Shi Tiantian said.
"Um..."
He didn't even know how to comment.
To say these people were idiots, at least they knew to bring weapons for protection.
To say they were smart, they actually went all the way to the Ten Thousand Great Mountains for a picnic.
Even if wanting some thrill after being in the city too long, wouldn't a stroll on Bathhouse Street suffice? Why come all the way to the Ten Thousand Great Mountains?
Liu Zheng couldn't help but think about those tourists in reality who enter dangerous or prohibited areas against warnings, risking their lives and often dragging rescuers with them.
"By the way, I found some things among those people."
Shi Tiantian reached a hand into a skull's mouth, rummaging and pulling out a package wrapped in leaves.
"Mr. Human, please pick something from here as my apology gift."
It offered the leaves to Liu Zheng as if presenting treasures.
"This is so embarrassing."
Liu Zheng said, but his hands honestly opened the leaves.
Inside was a small handgun, three small plastic balls, and a palm-sized notebook.
He first picked up the small handgun, and a description immediately popped up.
"Name: Greater Stakes Handgun (single-use)"
"Type: Item"
"Quality: Excellent"
"Effect: The larger the size difference between the player and the target, the more damage dealt to the target on a hit, but the player also suffers the same damage."
"Note: An ant can shake a tree, and an ant can reach the sky."
"Can be taken out of the instance: Yes"
Good stuff indeed, Liu Zheng's eyes lit up.
Knowing his damage is all real, if he encounters a high-defense, low-health gigantic enemy, wouldn't this be euphoric?
Even if Liu Zheng would also suffer the same damage, he'd used plenty of mutually destructive items before, and he still had a second life now.
Holding back the urge to store the handgun in his system space, he picked up the three plastic balls.
"Name: Dye Ball (single-use)"
"Type: Item"
"Quality: Excellent"
"Effect: Upon hitting a target, it dyes the target, leaving a unique foul smell, detectable within a two-kilometer radius for fifteen minutes."
"Note: A good Hunter must be brave enough to face both fearsome monsters and their own stench."
"Can be taken out of the instance: Yes"
"Name: Flash Jade (single-use)"
"Type: Item"
"Quality: Excellent"
"Effect: On use, it produces an extremely dazzling light, lasting for 3 seconds."
"Note: A successful Flash Jade takes down a powerful enemy, while a failed one takes down many teammates."
"Can be taken out of the instance: Yes"
"Name: Sonic Boom (single-use)"
"Type: Item"
"Quality: Excellent"
"Effect: On use, it produces a loud sound; the better the target's hearing, the more effective it is."
"Note: So, why did you use a Sonic Boom on a snake?"
"Can be taken out of the instance: Yes"
"Hmm..."
After seeing the effects of the three plastic balls, he speculated about the identities of the unfortunate bunch.
These guys probably weren't just picnickers but poachers.
He set down the plastic balls and picked up the last notebook.
"Huh?"
There wasn't any item description.
He opened the notebook, finding it filled with incomprehensible scribbles.
"Doctor, take a look at this."
He handed the notebook to Doctor Nile.
"I can't understand it, nor do I sense any magic or divine power. However, my intuition tells me this might be the diary of some kind of believer."
Doctor Nile said after examining it.
"A believer's diary..."
Liu Zheng fell into thought.
Given all the circumstances, these people probably weren't good people.
If they were believers, then the sect they followed likely wasn't a legitimate one.
"Miss Tian Tian, I have an unreasonable request."
Liu Zheng said to Shi Tiantian.
"Please, go ahead."
"I would like this notebook, but I also want this handgun. Could I ask you to sell me this handgun?"
He said somewhat embarrassedly.
"Sure. But I don't want money; could you trade something else with me?"
Shi Tiantian said sweetly.
"Trade, huh? Let me see."
Liu Zheng searched around in the system space and then showed a bitter expression.
Despite his many Extraordinary Items, there really wasn't anything he could trade.
Either the quality was too high, or they could synergize with other items.
"Oh, I almost forgot to return this to you."
Seeing this, Doctor Nile took out an item and placed it in his hand.
