space and rebirth the favored genius doctor and businesswoman

Chapter 354

Seeing Jing Yun Zhao like this, some people started to hesitate.

“This Jing Yun Zhao...doesn’t look like she’s new to this at all? It’s obvious if you look at the way she handles the medicine. She’s very clear on which medicine needs to be differentiated by scent and which by taste...”

Jing Yun Zhao didn’t put any of the medicine anywhere near her mouth if they contained poison, and once she smells those that aren’t right, she would block her nose and while investigating it.

Another thing was, different medical herbs put together could produce an unimaginable effect, or it could even affect the medicinal qualities of other herbs. Jing Yun Zhao was clearly very informed on this point; every time she finished going through one herb, as long as her hand had touched it, she would run it through water to avoid the remnants of the previous herb affecting the next one.

Either way, Jing Yun Zhao was performing better than Sun Yan when it came to such details.

Those who originally thought that Jing Yun Zhao had absolutely no chance of winning had been otherwise convinced.

Meanwhile, Cui Jun and his father’s expressions turned serious.

They couldn’t lose, and they couldn’t afford to lose. The Cui Family only had Cui Jun as the only child. If he couldn’t become a Master Pharmacist, then everything would become a joke!

All their hope was placed on Sun Yan’s shoulders.

They even started to have some minor regrets, but it was too late for all that now.

Time passed very quickly and the second round soon came to an end.

This time, the paper in the pair’s hands was packed with their handwriting like tiny ants. However, as per the previous round, it was still Jing Yun Zhao’s that was more appealing to the eye.

However, having been taught a lesson previously, Sun Yan had also put more emphasis on this detail and didn’t recklessly cancel out her mistakes, only making a mark against them. But at the same time, this led to her mistakes becoming even more obvious.

The competitions Sun Yan had participated in before were much simpler than this one. At least, the medicinal materials would not be so complicated nor messy, so her victory was secured among her peers.

But things were different this time.

“Ephedra, Dichroa Febrifuga, Gentiana Scabra, these are all correct...” Father Ji nodded as he read.

These were simple, even those with some basic knowledge wouldn’t get this wrong.

As for its medical properties, the two covered all their bases.

But looking at the back, everyone became a lot more solemn. After watching Jing Yun Zhao’s performance in the first round, the medicinal materials in the second round were all added at the last minute to deliberately increase the difficulty so they could avoid the scene where both of them answered everything correctly and created a tie.

“One says it’s Eastern Wall Earth, while the other says it’s Acacia catechu (ie children’s tea). This is a very huge difference,” Father Ji murmured.

“The Eastern Wall Earth used to be the material used in the building of east-facing walls, but cement is generally used, so it has become rare. Its medicinal properties are sweet, warm, non-toxic, mainly used for detoxification, expelling poison, reducing yellowing, relieving edema, anti-inflammatory and sterilization. Sun Yan, you only wrote the name here and didn’t include its medicinal properties. Plus, it’s not Eastern Wall Earth...” someone else continued.

Sun Yan was startled. They are all earth and dust, how can they be so easy to distinguish?

I’m not even an Old Master who’d already practiced for decades, it’s normal to make mistakes. Who told them to make their questions so difficult!

“Then is it Acacia catechu? I’ve never heard of it,” Sun Yan asked nervously. (me neither)

If Jing Yun Zhao is correct, even if my answers at the back are all correct, it’s still going to be difficult for me to recover lost ground.

“That’s right. It’s also known as Children’s Tea. It’s normal for you to not know because this thing is mostly made in Southern Bo Yun City. They pour the processed tea dust into bamboo bottles and close the ends tightly then bury it in mud. After a day, they remove it and pound the juice out, before heating it over a slow fire...”

One elder continued to explain the details of the medicine, and when he was done, he didn’t forget to go back to Jing Yun Zhao’s written answer, “What you’ve written is absolutely correct. This Children’s Tea is bitter, calm, and not poisonous...To be able to recognize this at your age is really remarkable!

The moment this was said, it was as if Sun Yan was struck by lightning. Jing Yun Zhao actually got it right?!
