The Miracle Doctor: Call Me Savior

Seeing that Zachary had remained silent, the teacher on duty said awkwardly, "Zachary, if Mr. Yan didn't make a special application, I'm afraid..."

Zachary snapped back to his senses and quickly waved his hand with a smile, "I was negligent. I don't need Snow Ginseng and dried antler. Please change them to White Ginseng and China root, and increase the dose by three taels and two taels respectively."

"White Ginseng and Hasbrouck root?" The teacher muttered. He looked down at the prescription and said to Zachary worriedly, "The Snow Ginseng and dried antler are the herbs of warm nature. Although White Ginseng also belonged to that type, Hasbrouck root is the herb of cold nature, which would have the opposite effect. Are you sure about this?"This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

Although the teacher on duty was just in charge of the herb storage for the School of Chinese Medicine, he was very clear about the basics of Chinese medicine. Seeing that Zachary had casually changed the prescription into other ingredients with a different dosage, the teacher couldn't help feeling a little confused, and even concerned.

Zachary was clear about the usage for each ingredient. However, the mechanism of action for the refining potion was not as simple as merely nourishing the body. It involved the interaction between ingredients in order to achieve various pharmacological effects, such as strengthening the body and enhancing the pneuma.

Although it would seem unsuitable to replace the Snow Ginseng and dried antler with White Ginseng and China root, the pharmacological effect of the refining potion would only be slightly affected based on the mechanism of action in the refining potion. There would be no problem with the overall pharmacological effect as a result.

Of course, it would be very troublesome to explain all that to the teacher on duty. Therefore, Zachary smiled and said, "I've copied the formula wrongly. So, I changed it to the correct formulation."

Since Zachary had said so, the teacher on duty did not insist on the matter any further. He took the ingredients and handed them over to Zachary, who then thanked the teacher on duty, and promptly returned to the lab.

The equipment for preparing medicines were no longer traditional crocks or gas stoves. There were all sorts of electrical appliances in the laboratory instead. However, it was not a problem for him, because the soul of Zachary from the modern era was familiar with the equipment.

Zachary produced the weakened version of the refining potion within two hours. As a result, it was a pot of black liquid, exuding a unique bitter smell. After letting it cool down for a bit, Zachary poured the medicine into a bowl and quickly gulped it down.

The liquid entered his stomach along his throat. The taste of the medicine would be bitter and unpleasant for most people, but it was a familiar taste for Zachary. It soothed him both physically and mentally.

After taking the medicine, Zachary selected a few more ingredients, ground them into powder, and poured it into the rest of the liquid. After stirring it for a few times, the black liquid began to solidify into a black paste. Zachary packed the black paste into a plastic bag, and then cleaned up the laboratory.

The refining potion had to be consistently taken for a period of time. Hence, Zachary had transformed the liquid into a paste formulation. It would be more convenient for him to carry it around with him all the time. Zachary took the paste and walked out of the laboratory. He locked the door and went downstairs.

At the staircase, Zachary bumped into a slightly bald middle-aged man. The man was none other than Jimmy Yan, Zachary's mentor.

"Hello, Mr. Yan!" Zachary greeted him.

"Uhm... Zachary, are you done with your internship?" Mr. Yan asked. He was surprised to see Zachary there.

"Yes, it's over. I have handed in the internship certificate. I came to the laboratory to get some medicine just now," Zachary explained, as he showed the paste in his hand.

"Internship certificate..." Mr. Yan repeated. He seemed to be a little surprised, but his expression quickly returned to normal. "Well, that's good. Please prepare for your graduation thesis. You have three months left before graduation." "Alright!"

Zachary left. He hadn't noticed anything unusual about Mr. Yan's attitude, since Mr. Yan would only treat him well if he needed help for his experiments.

After Zachary had left the building, Jimmy went into room 712 and locked the door. Then, he walked to the window and dialed a number, with a serious look on his face.

A moment later, the call was connected. "Young Master Wu! I'm Jimmy! I just met Zachary. There seems to be something wrong with the internship certificate. He said..."

Before Jimmy could finish, the person on the other end of the phone scolded him angrily. Jimmy's face turned gloomy instantly.

Despite that, Jimmy said ingratiatingly, "Young Master Wu, please don't worry. Although he managed to get the internship certificate, I'll find another way to deal with him. I'm his mentor, there are many ways for me to deal with him, as long as he is still in school. I will definitely make him suffer, and seek vengeance on your behalf."

Jimmy glanced at Zachary through the window as he was speaking, and his expression became vicious.

"Yes. Sure," Jimmy nodded repeatedly while responding, as if the other person could see his actions.

In the end, he gave a flattering smile, "Well, Young Master Wu, I'll have to trouble you to help me talk to Principal Wu about my promotion."

Zachary was not aware of the evil intentions behind his back.

After returning to the dormitory, Zachary practiced a set of punches while the medicine was taking effect in his body. The set of punches was called Refining Boxing, which had been created by himself for the purpose of strengthening his body. The effect of Refining Boxing would be most effective when used together with the Refining Potion.

Zachary consistently took the Refining Potion and exercised his Refining Boxing every day for a few days in a row. The reputation of the "Herbal King" was well-deserved, even though the prescription was just a simple one.

Zachary felt that his body had become much stronger within the week. He had physically improved a lot in terms of strength and flexibility.

He would now be able to fight against four or five adult men at the same time, in contrast to just one man from before.

Besides exercising, Zachary spent almost all of his time in the library. He read through many books about modern Chinese medicine, in order to understand the current situation in the field of Chinese medicine.

After reading all those books, Zachary, who was once known as the "Herbal King", couldn't help but sigh. He didn't expect that people would have come to question the validity of Chinese medicine, when it was in fact valuable knowledge from their ancestors, which was used to save lives. Unfortunately, people nowadays claimed that it was akin to witchcraft or superstition.

As he was feeling disappointed, Zachary had a sudden revelation. It was an idea that would have been been laughed at and mocked by many people if he had said it out loud.

"Revitalize Traditional Chinese Medicine and bring back the medical legend!"

Zachary, facing the sunrise, had a look of perseverance in his eyes.
