Chapter 88 Medicinal Diet
“Although Brother Yi Hai’s injuries look terrible, they were treated promptly and no root cause of the disease remains, so there is actually nothing to worry about.

The real problem is that the internal organs have been hit by such a huge force, and they are like leaking sieves after the force entered the body. Now these organs are fragile and cannot be treated with dragon and tiger medicine. It seems that I can only use medicinal food to nourish them and slowly heal them with food therapy."

Li Yutang looked at Qin Huai and spoke slowly and calmly about Xiang Yihai's current condition. His diagnosis was much more detailed than the previous doctor's advice.

After listening to Li Yutang's judgment, Xiang Hongying also felt that it would be more appropriate to recuperate slowly, but she didn't know how to do it specifically, so she gave Qin Huai a probing look.

"Uncle Li, Uncle Xiang is a martial artist who has practiced martial arts for many years. Ordinary herbs and food probably won't be of much use to him. If we win by quantity, Uncle Xiang doesn't look like he can eat a lot of food in his current state. Since you use this method, do you have anything to teach us?"

Qin Huai received the signal, looked at the somewhat nervous Miss Xiang, turned around and continued to consult Li Yutang who was thinking about the wording on the side.

Li Yutang touched his non-existent beard, and without much hesitation, he said something that put the three people's hearts back at ease.

"Don't worry, Brother Xiang is a real hero who is willing to sacrifice his life for the sake of great things. Although I am just a businessman, I will do my best to help and will never disappoint the heroes.

Since I have proposed this method of medicinal diet therapy, I have my own methods, so just follow me. "

After saying that, Li Yutang led the way and took the three of them to the Jinliyuan medicinal materials warehouse.

Jinliyuan, medicine storehouse, secret storehouse
Li Yutang was skillfully selecting medicinal materials from each medicine cabinet. Qin Huai and the other two were a little surprised when they saw the fifty-year-old man moving around in the air on the medicine ladder.

"Brother Yutang, you didn't tell me you have this skill."

Li Bingwu was still worried, so he leaned against the medicine ladder with his hands outstretched to prevent Li Yutang from slipping and falling off the ladder.

"These are all old stories. The story of this method dates back decades ago.

At that time, I accompanied my father to Southeast Asia to trade medicinal materials. I was bored on the ship, so I pestered a few uncles to bring these strange-looking flowers and plants to tell me what they were used for.

Later, when I was older and familiar with the medicinal properties of these herbs, my father took me to his side to prepare the herbs and help me.

When I was thirteen years old, my father and his companions were collecting medicinal herbs in Annan when they were robbed by bandits. I was separated from my father by the rush of people.

At that time, for a teenager to be separated from his family in a foreign country where he was unfamiliar with the place, it was definitely a disaster. But I was lucky and had a long life. I met a wandering Taoist priest. The old Taoist priest was kind-hearted and helped me a lot.

As the saying goes, fortune and misfortune go hand in hand. Now that I think about it, this should be the greatest blessing in my life."

As Li Yutang spoke, he put the scale for weighing medicine aside, held the medicine tray in his hand, turned around, and walked down the medicine ladder steadily.

Angelica sinensis from Ganmin, Astragalus membranaceus from ancient times, Codonopsis pilosula from southern Shanxi, Atractylodes macrocephala from western Zhejiang...many precious medicinal materials that have aged and become spiritual emit rich medicinal aroma in the medicine tray.

Li Yutang handed the medicine tray to Qin Huai, wiped his hands with a silk cloth, and continued.

"The old Taoist priest was a good man. He helped me find my father and stayed with us in Southeast Asia for some time. I guess I was very pleasing to his eyes. Although he didn't accept me as his disciple, he still taught me some medicinal and dietary therapy techniques.

Later I found out that what the old Taoist taught me was not simple, and it was especially effective for warriors like you.

It's a pity that the ingredients used are very demanding. All the herbs used must be aged and have spiritual energy. I have carefully collected them for so many years, but I have only collected the treasures from this small secret library."

"Isn't it all the work of those Qing Dynasty lackeys? They used every possible means to search for the great medicines in the world, forcing the world's martial arts talents to wither.

Except for the sects that have their own secret medicines and can rely on the influence of their ancestors to find a way to prepare some secret medicines, other warriors can only practice hard skills and survive these decades!"

Li Bingwu took over the conversation, his face was angry and he expressed dissatisfaction.

"The medicinal food I prepared for Brother Yi Hai this time is called 'Eight Treasures Blood Nourishing Soup'. It is a great dish that the old Taoist priest taught me."

Li Yutang looked up at Xiang Hongying and explained,
"This medicinal diet uses angelica and astragalus as the main herbs to nourish qi and blood; codonopsis and atractylodes are the secondary herbs to strengthen the spleen and replenish qi; and cooked rehmannia, wolfberry, red dates, and longan meat are the auxiliary herbs to nourish the liver and kidneys, nourish the heart and calm the mind. After taking it, it can help brother Yi Hai make up for the deficiency, restore blood and qi, and make up for some of the lost lifespan."

Change battlefield, Jinliyuan, kitchen

A person Qin Huai didn't expect was carefully picking firewood in the kitchen, as if waiting for something.

"Master Shan, you are here too?"

After Qin Huai and the other two greeted respectfully, they stepped aside to leave the space for the two seniors.

"If he invites me, I will always come."

Master Shan glanced at Li Yutang, took the medicine plate, and completed the medicinal meal with Li Yutang's cooperation in a familiar manner.

Next, it's a long wait.
After a long while, until everyone was getting impatient, Li Yutang took out his pocket watch, took a look at it, and nodded slightly, "Okay."

Master Shan opened the lid of the pot, and a rich and strange fragrance gushed out, and a flash of precious light appeared in the thick white mist.

"Hmm. Although I haven't smelled this for a while, it still smells delicious!"

Looking at the steaming freshly-baked "Eight Treasures Blood-Nourishing Soup", Qin Huai listened to Master Shan's sigh and became curious, so he took a quick glance at this medicinal meal.

【Eight Treasures Blood Nourishing Soup】

Category: Consumables
Quality: Rare

The perfect combination of medicine and food, eating it can restore a large amount of blood and qi in a short period of time, speed up the recovery of injuries. It has the effect of strengthening the foundation and replenishing the deficiency, and has no side effects.

Note: Use the properties of medicine to regulate the qi of food, blend the essence of both to create a treasure for nourishing life.

(Due to the quality of the materials used, this is not the limit it can reach.)
Wow, this is a rare consumable item certified by Yanfu!

It's not a high-tech creation. Qin Huai, who had never seen anything good, raised his eyebrows and stared at Li Yutang and asked tentatively,
"Uncle Li, can I learn how to cook this?"

Li Yutang looked at Qin Huai, then looked at Master Shan who remained silent, and hesitated.
“Although these medicinal foods were only randomly taught to me by the old Taoist priest with a few yellow paper pages, he never said that they cannot be passed on to others.

Although I want to teach you, I'm really worried that you won't be able to learn it.

You have to know that there is almost only one way to achieve the current effect of this dish, that is, I prepare the medicine and Master Shan cooks the dish.

If one of the two is not handled well, the dish will not look as impressive as it does now."

"Is that so? Uncle Li, can you write down the recipe for me? I'll go back and study it first."

Qin Huai still had some hope, but Li Yutang was very cheerful.

"No problem. When I have time, I'll get you some common ingredients and demonstrate to you, and tell you the tricks."

As the two were talking, Xiang Hongying had already served a bowl of Eight Treasures Blood-Nourishing Soup and walked quickly out the door towards the quiet room.

In front of Xiang Yihai's bed, everyone watched Xiang Hongying put the soup into her father's mouth, and Xiang Yihai also swallowed the medicinal food into his stomach relying on his body instinctively.

After a while, Xiang Yihai's pale face turned visibly rosy, his breathing became steady and long, and when he opened his eyelids again, he finally woke up.
