564: Chapter 564: Immortal Pill?
“What?
Can it cure all diseases?
Isn’t that basically a miracle cure?”
“This is insane; if it really reaches that point, then in the future, any disease could be completely resolved with just one dose of Holy Water.
Madness, these Western doctors are truly mad; America really does have a bunch of science maniacs.”
Tangyu’s heart gave a slight jolt, and his expression changed as he looked towards Nathan, a peculiar light flashing in his eyes, but no one knew what Tangyu was thinking at that moment.
Seeing everyone’s reaction, Nathan also showed a proud and smug smile on his face, “That’s right, it can cure all diseases.
In layman’s terms, once our second phase of the plan is successful, any disease could be completely resolved with just one dose of Holy Water in the future.
Of course, I can also tell everyone that Holy Water has another natural advantage – it’s not costly to produce, and we can mass-produce it.
We’ve already completed the first phase of research and conducted numerous experiments.
We also have some leads on the second phase, but I can’t reveal too much for now.
Our plan is to complete the second phase within five years.”
There was another uproar, insanity—it was hard to think of any other word to describe it.
A five-year plan, if it could indeed be realized, would hold immeasurable significance for all of humanity.
The members of the Traditional Chinese Medicine team also showed shocked and moved expressions, as if a monumental revolution was about to arrive.
“They are science madmen; it’s impossible not to admire them,” Yu Zhaoke also clicked his tongue and shook his head.
Chairman Bi’s face showed a succession of shocked expressions, and it took her a while to recover and say, “Alright, let’s start this afternoon’s exchange program.”
Guided by the staff, nearly three hundred patients were brought in, which immediately caused a commotion in the room, even a few screams.
At first glance, these people were indeed frightening, all resembling zombies.
Their bodies were rotting and stinking, the stench overwhelming, and truly terrifying.
Soon, the foul odor filled the entire conference room, and many people pinched their noses, unable to bear the smell.
“What’s wrong with these people?
Why do they look so terrifying, like zombies, what strange disease have they got?
It’s too stinky; I feel like I’m going to be suffocated.”
“I can’t take it, I’m going to vomit, I really can’t stand it.”
The representatives of both Eastern and Western medicine had already started working.
Nearly three hundred patients were evenly divided into two groups, with each team responsible for one group and an equal number of patients.
The competition was to see which team could heal these patients in the least amount of time, and of course, the most important thing was the final healing effect.
Nathan looked over at Tangyu and said, “Tangyu, I told you that you would lose.
I have Holy Water, and I just need to give each person a dose, and all the poison in their bodies will be eliminated.
I know your Chinese medicine is also very powerful against poisons, but over a hundred people, you simply can’t detoxify them fast enough.
Your efficiency cannot compare to my Holy Water.”
“Don’t speak in absolutes until the end; whether or not you can compare, you’ll only know after trying,” Tangyu said with a lift to the corner of his mouth.
Nathan smiled and no longer paid attention to Tangyu, as the Western medicine team had already begun their treatment.
Tangyu immediately ordered, “Rao Yuanzhi, Rao Yuanzhen, the two of you join forces to detoxify those patients, detoxify as many people as you can.
Doctor Xiao, Xiao Yudie, you two team up, try to detoxify more.
Ye Mai, go prepare one hundred 20-milliliter cups and another bucket of 2000 milliliters of water for me, neither more nor less.
It’s extremely important to be able to accurately measure this water into each cup.
Go get it ready quickly, and if you need any help, just ask the staff.
Everyone else, support our three teams.”
Under Tangyu’s instructions, the Traditional Chinese Medicine team also began their treatment.
With Rao Yuanzhi and Rao Yuanzhen working together, their healing ability was naturally not weak.
The efficiency of the Doctor Xiao sisters was even higher—after all, they specialized in poisons, and using poison against poison with their Gu Insects was their forte.
However, the patients had so many poisons in their bodies, and some were particularly difficult to detoxify, so the treatment was not an easy task.
Naturally, the same couldn’t be said for Tangyu with his Pure Yang Qi combined with the Immortal Finger Technique.
The Western medicine team’s pace was indeed fast, as they only had to administer the Holy Water to each person and then wait for it to remove the poison from the patients’ bodies.
Both teams were now racing against time.
Tangyu wasn’t holding back this time; he went all out, quickly healed five people, but it exhausted him considerably, and sweat soaked his forehead.
Liu Shiyi, looking at Tangyu and his serious face, also became a bit mesmerized.
She wanted to go up and wipe the sweat from Tangyu’s face, but her feet wouldn’t move, as if they were weighed down with lead.
Ye Mai ran back; he had prepared everything.
Tangyu came over, took out a red pill slightly smaller than a goose egg from his body, and handed it to Ye Mai, “Melt this Elixir completely in the water, then pour it into the eighty cups and have the patients take it.
This is the last Elixir I have on me, and it can only detoxify a hundred people at most.
We’ll have to rely on ourselves for the rest.
Quickly go and do it.”
Ye Mai was also stunned as he took the Elixir, staring blankly at Tangyu.
The others also looked at Tangyu with similarly surprised expressions.
Numerous media cameras also captured the moment, and many exclaimed, “Is that an Immortal Pill?
Is it really so formidable?”
“Okay,” Ye Mai, although extremely surprised in his heart, didn’t ask any more questions at this time but simply nodded in complete trust in Tangyu.
However, the shock in his heart was still indescribable.
Such a small pill could actually lift the poison from a hundred people?
Wasn’t that much more powerful than the Holy Water provided by the Western medicine delegation?
How could there be such an incredible pill in this world?
It was truly a miraculous medicine, an Immortal Pill, indeed.
The competition continued to rage on like a fierce fire.
Each delegation was faced with treating one hundred and forty-one patients.
Minus the one hundred, that meant that Tangyu and his team still had to treat forty-one patients.
Spread across three groups, each group had to cure about fourteen people.
That was no small number.
“Not good, a dose of Holy Water hasn’t cleared the poison from their bodies; they must be injected with another dose of Holy Water,” said the Western medical team, where problems arose quickly.
Seeing this situation, Tangyu also breathed a sigh of relief.
If Holy Water could really eliminate all the patients’ poison in such a short time, then the Western doctors would have assured victory.
However, as Tangyu had expected, the Holy Water wasn’t that miraculous.
Perhaps, as Nathan and his team were developing the Holy Water, they had only experimented on some highly poisonous creatures.
The toxins in these villagers’ bodies exceeded a hundred varieties, with some unique to Huaxia Country, so it was not going to be easy to neutralize them.
Even if it were possible, it wouldn’t be easy.
Tangyu dared to be so confident because he was betting on this.
And indeed, he was not disappointed.
“Put in more effort; victory is ours,” said Tangyu.
Over at Ye Mai’s side, they were also making the patients drink water that had dissolved the pill.
As time ticked by second by second, the atmosphere became incredibly tense, with all the media reporters holding their breath, leaving only the sound of camera shutters clicking.
Before anyone realized it, two hours had passed.
The Western medical team had also administered the second dose of Holy Water to all the patients.
On the Chinese medicine side, only a few patients remained, with three groups still working hard to detoxify.
As for Ye Mai, he naturally had already had all eighty patients drink the water long ago.
“Nathan, the patients who were initially injected with two doses of Holy Water are now all right.
I’ve checked them, and all the poison has been neutralized, the corroded areas on their bodies have all healed, and their spirits have completely returned to normal.
We’ve succeeded,” Gleeful reported.
Rou Sen said, “Although we’ve cured these people, it was much more difficult than we initially thought.
I didn’t expect a single dose of Holy Water to be insufficient to completely neutralize the poison, requiring two doses.
Fortunately, we came prepared with enough Holy Water; otherwise, we would have been in trouble this time.
However, we shouldn’t be too smug just yet; perhaps I really did underestimate Tangyu’s abilities.
Look over there, at those one hundred patients on their side, their condition is also improving.”
“Hmm, that’s strange, how could their condition also be improving?
This doesn’t make sense?” Gleeful frowned and said.
“It’s the strange pill Tangyu gave them, dissolved into two thousand milliliters of water.
Each patient drank twenty milliliters and achieved such an effect,” Nathan said, his eyes also flashing with a peculiar light.
He too wanted to know just what that pill was made of.
“Damn it, God, this must be some kind of joke, right?
Can anyone tell me what that damn thing is, exactly?
How can there be anything so powerful that just a little bit can neutralize such potent poisons?
That’s just like our Holy Water.
This isn’t possible; I don’t believe it,” Gleeful said.
“Let’s just keep watching.
The results are the most convincing,” Nathan replied.
The Western medical team’s patients were improving one by one.
They only needed to wait for the last patient to be completely cleansed of the poison, and that would signify the end.
As for Tangyu and his team, they were left with the patients they were currently treating.
Tangyu was drenched in sweat; Rao Yuanzhi and Rao Yuanzhen were no exceptions.
Doctor Xiao and Xiao Yudie were in slightly better shape since they were using Gu Insects, which didn’t require much effort on their part.
“Phew!” Tangyu treated the last patient and nearly collapsed, sitting down directly on the ground.
This time, he had truly exerted himself to the limit, the Pure Yang Qi within him was entirely depleted, and he felt somewhat drained.
Bi Wanting suddenly came over and handed a handkerchief to Tangyu: “Wipe your sweat.”
Tangyu paused for a moment, glanced at Bi Wanting, and then at the handkerchief in her hand.
It was rare to see people using handkerchiefs nowadays: “Thank you.” Tangyu didn’t hesitate and took the handkerchief to wipe the sweat off his face.
Liu Shiyi felt an inexplicable discomfort in her heart watching this scene.
Doctor Xiao had also finished her treatment, and the last to finish was Rao Yuanzhi.
The Western medical team had also cured all their patients.
Tangyu turned to the one hundred people on the other side and went over to check on them.
Thankfully, they did not disappoint him; all one hundred were healed, with the toxins in their bodies completely neutralized.
It was no joke, the Detoxification Medicine refined by the Ghost Doctor, of which there were only three in the world, and he had used two already—this was Tangyu’s last one, unique now in the world.
Even the Ghost Doctor no longer had the ability to refine more.
Tangyu had asked the Ghost Doctor about the origin of these three Detoxification Medicines, but the Ghost Doctor merely mentioned it casually and did not elaborate, only saying that it would be impossible to refine them again and that Tangyu should use them wisely.
Now, having used all three within less than three months of his journey, it was indeed a significant loss.
