Chapter 310: Live Drug Test
Doctor Zhao had been busy also. She contacted Lu Xuan and tattled all about Mo Li to him. Doctor Zhao didn’t even name Mo Li because to her, she was just a girl fishing for fame. Mo Li had boasted the impossible before everyone. Doctor Zhao wanted to bring Lu Xuan into this because if Mo Li succeeded, Doctor Zhao would recommend her to Lu Xuan; if Mo Li failed, Doctor Zhao would have Lu Xuan blackball Mo Li. Either way, Doctor Zhao would win.
Mo Li took out the drugs from the liquid nitrogen container and placed them into the freezer. Mo Yun was already waiting for her inside the car. After Mo Li got into the car, he sighed. “Are you sure you can heal Zhang Hong?”
“Of course. His kind of epilepsy is very easy to treat. As you saw, during the onset, he fell into a comatose state and his eyes lost focus. Zhang Hong’s face was pale and his limbs twitched. You couldn’t bend his fingers either. His mouth was firmly shut and his neck was fixed in place.” Mo Li explained to Mo Yun. The problem of epilepsy was actually first solved by traditional Chinese medicine. To cure epilepsy was a matter of ‘calming the wind’ in the body. To ‘calm the wind’, Chinese medicine practitioners would use a specific ratio of Chinese medicines.
“So you’ve used an extract of traditional Chinese herbs in your drugs?” Mo Yun glanced at Mo Li.
“Not exactly. According to the theory of Chinese medicine, epilepsy is caused by the rapid movement of trapped ‘wind’ inside the body. Symptoms include up-rolled eyes, twitching fingers, and clenched teeth. The ‘wind’ is monitored by the liver so Chinese medicine practitioners often use herbs like Coptis Chinensis, bamboo leaves, gentian grass, chrysanthemum, centipede, Zombie Silkworm, grapevine, and Jue Ming Si.”
Mo Li never saw a conflict between eastern and western medicine. She believed that there could be a bridge between the two. So her drugs were a combination of the two.
In terms of western medicine, surgery was not suggested to heal epilepsy. This was because it was hard to find the nervous source of epilepsy. It was why Mo Li had decided to use drugs.
Her drugs mainly contained particles of chlorite schist. This was a formula of the imperial court during the Qing Dynasty. Only the imperial family had access to this formula. It was meant to treat epilepsy and mental problem among members of the imperial family.
In addition, Mo Li used other western medical elements as well. The drug was to help clear away body heat and eliminate phlegm.
When they arrived at the home, Mo Li noticed everyone was so much friendlier than before.
“Hello, Young Master Mo and Miss Mo!”
“Miss Mo looks so charming today.”
“Xiao Yun, Li Li, I am actually a relative of your family…”
Mo Li thought she was already an expert at ignoring these people but Mo Yun was really the true expert. He walked through the crowd like he couldn’t even see them.
“Miss Mo, Mr. Mo, you’re here!” Zhang Hao was very excited when he saw the two of them.
What Mo Li did earlier had worked. Zhang Hong didn’t act up for the whole week so he didn’t have to use the machine. This had saved his family a lot of money.
Wei Fen heard the sound and looked up. Her eyes were pale. Her son suffered from epilepsy since he was young and she had been asking Lady Flower for mercy. Lady Flower always gave her talisman water to feed her son. After 3 years of drinking the water, her son would be cured. However, Mo Li had ruined everything by forcing her son to vomit out the talisman water. They had offended Lady Flower and her son would die because of it.
Wei Fen started to cry again. In her mind, her son was already dead.
Perhaps it was Mo Li’s imagination but it felt like the moment she stepped into Zhang Hong’s room, a lot more people had appeared.
“Miss Mo Li, have you already made the drug that you said can cure Zhang Hong?” Doctor Zhao asked with a fake smile. This was the perfect chance for her to destroy Mo Li. She wanted to show everyone the consequences of bragging!
Mo Li took out her needle of drugs without answering Doctor Zhao. Doctor Zhao glanced at the drugs and saw nothing special about them. This Mo Li sure is a braggart. “Are you sure that thing in your hand will pose no problem to the patient?” Doctor Zhao asked again.
“I am not sure. “Mo Li answered truthfully. She was just a doctor, not a God.
“Then how dare you use a living human to experiment it on? Are you crazy?” Doctor Zhao raised her voice, her tone sharp and questioning.
“Both the patient’s parents have agreed to let us try this. I’ve already done my best to ensure the safety of the drugs. Why do you insist on stopping me?” Mo Li turned away from this woman because she no longer wanted to waste any breath on her.
