Chapter 952: Treasure-Hunting Expert Misses the Treasure

"I want everyone to know, when I first knew this was Dragon Saliva Fragrance, I also thought I had made a fortune!"

"But when people saw these sea toads, they said it couldn't be used anymore. I worked hard and invited the gentleman from the medicine shop to drink, only to know that these sea toads ate Dragon Saliva Fragrance, and the incense material couldn't be used at all. Using it not only doesn't smell good, but also stinks."

"But it specializes in curing illnesses. It's not that it can cure any illness; it just cures eye problems."

"It doesn't matter if it's qi-blindness, fire-blindness, sudden fire-eye, tearing in the wind, pterygium, or red silk blood lines, it gets better as soon as it's applied. I'm not a medicine seller, nor a doctor who practices medicine. I'll give some of this stuff to everyone, do a favor, and make a connection."

He pointed to a person and said: "This gentleman's eyes are full of red silk, I'll apply some for you to try. I don't want money, and I don't sell it."

That person squatted on the ground. He took out a small glass bottle from his waist, which had water inside, and took out a small knife and a bone hairpin.

He used the small knife to scrape powder off the sea treasure.

He dipped the bone hairpin in cold water, then dipped it in the scraped powder, and applied it to the left eye of this person.

It didn't take long for this person to say: "Excuse me, please apply some to the right eye!" He applied some to the right eye. This person shouted: "Much more comfortable!"

These people all saw it was cheap, and it didn't take long for several people to squat down, some applying it to the eyes, some smearing it.

It was really strange, everyone who used his medicine said: "This medicine is very good."

Dou the Dou Dou Xiayan just smiled on the side. His eyes were blind, but his nose was even sharper!

As soon as the man used the small knife to scrape, he smelled what it was. There were two medicinal materials inside: calamine and borneol.

Dou the Dou Dou Xiayan had walked the Jianghu for so many years, what tricks hadn't he seen?

He heard with one ear that the man was doing the Skin Gate business.

The Skin Gate is buying medicine. Calamine and borneol are two medicinal materials that clear heat and reduce fire, and treating eyes is indeed correct. But setting up a stall on the ground to sell for money is really not easy. Goods on the street die, meat is cheap and smelled by the nose. No matter what business it is, once it falls to the ground, it's over.

So he had to use some Jianghu methods, take medicinal materials to make this sea treasure, and make up a story to cheat people!

Now people's hearts are not ancient. There are still some who make earth treasures and sea treasures, but they have started to make fake antiques and fake strange stones, and they won't even give you this little bit of real stuff.

Dou the Dou Dou Xiayan shook his head slightly in his heart. In this trade, one must be honest and earthy, so they often dress up as country folk to win people's trust. That man's tongue was too flexible, not looking like a countryman at all?

This little trick could only cheat the ignorant country folk at the temple fair.

Once in Dagu City, he wouldn't be able to walk a street before being exposed...

At this time, someone asked: "Sir, can your stone toad oil cure blindness?"

The man hesitated: "If you don't try it, who knows if it can be cured?"

That person looked delicate, like a scholar. He cupped his hands and said: "I want the sir to know, my mother worked under an oil lamp to support my studies and ruined her eyes! If the sir can cure my mother's fire-blindness, no matter how much money, I am willing to pay."

The man said: "I don't want much money from you. I sell it to others for how much, I sell it to you for how much!"

"Thank you, sir!" The scholar ran home.

Blindness is when the pupil is gray-white, obstructing the eyes, now called cataracts.

Dou the Dou Dou Xiayan was blind in his own eyes and had asked many divine doctors to see them, so he naturally knew that mere calamine and borneol couldn't cure this thing. But he knew a method that could make people pretend to be blind.

A chicken has a layer of skin on its eyes. Covering it on the eyes is the appearance of that white obstruction.

So some people took the chicken eyelid down and used it for this deception.

Dou the Dou Dou Xiayan knew what would happen next without looking.

He immediately turned his head and wanted to leave, but his neck turned, his eyes didn't turn, and a little peripheral vision was still staring at the stone toad in the man's hand.

This pair of divine eyes that peer into heaven were covered, and it was also covered on his pupils, with only a little corner of the eye still able to let in a little light.

A sweep of the peripheral vision was extraordinary. The stone toad, which was clearly a deception, actually lit up with a layer of faint treasure light.

Dou the Dou Dou Xiayan was shocked in his heart. That thing was actually a real treasure!

In the stone full of holes, dozens of stone toads, only three emitted treasure light, and that light shone into his eyes through the thin cover of the corner of the eye, seemingly melting a thread of the cover.

Dou the Dou Dou Xiayan's heart skipped a beat. Such a treasure seemed to be exactly what could cure his eye disease.

Being an old Jianghu, Dou the Dou Dou Xiayan was turned upside down in his heart, but he didn't leak anything on the surface. He just paused his steps, found a quiet place to sit down, and listened to the man selling the sea treasure.

He turned the man's words over and over in his heart and corresponded them with his own knowledge.

He naturally didn't believe half of the lies, but the stone toad was indeed a strange treasure that could cure eyes.

The man's explanation had some origins!

"The story of the giant whale in the sea eating sea monsters and producing Dragon Saliva Fragrance is known to few. Those who can explain this clearly are all experts who have seen the world while making a living at sea. Originally, I had some doubts when the man was using this explanation, surprised at where he heard it. Now it seems that it must have been told to him by the expert who pointed out the origin of this treasure."

"Sea toads are mostly rumors at sea. According to my knowledge, there is a fish in the deep sea that carries a lamp, which is called a sea toad."

"The light of this fish on its forehead can shine in the deep sea, and it is rumored that its liver can brighten the eyes."

"I originally thought this person heard this rumor and fabricated the deception of sea toads turning into stone."

"But now it seems that I have missed the treasure!"

"The 'Records of the East Sea Merman Kingdom' says that there is a Merman Kingdom in the East Sea. The men are extremely ugly, and the women are beautiful. The Merman men have bulging eyes, making their eyelids unable to cover them. Once they go ashore, their eyes will be extremely dry and itchy in the wind."

"So they worshipped an evil god, like a frog, named Igorle, known as the Toad Lord. Under the guidance of the Toad Lord, the Mermen caught a giant toad, named the Sla Toad Clan, and put its eggs into the belly of the Merman women. What hatched was a group of small toads."

"The Merman men took the oil from the surface of these small toads and applied it to their eyes, so they could go ashore to harm people."

"They often caused chaos in Yingzhou!"

"This 'Records of the East Sea Merman Kingdom' was written by sea merchants who heard rumors. I originally thought it was an absurd talk and hadn't verified it. I didn't expect it to be verified a few points today. It can be seen that the evil god Toad Lord and the Father of Ten Thousand Seas Dagon are not groundless..."

Just when Dou the Dou Dou Xiayan was calculating in his heart, the scholar who had spoken before indeed helped an old woman with white hair over.

The filial son helped his blind old mother and asked the medicine-selling sir to show mercy and apply medicine first.

This scene was truly a picture of motherly kindness and filial piety!

The man applied the eye medicine to the old mother, who immediately closed her eyes and didn't move. She shouted: "So cool! My eyes are so cool... Oh! I can see a little light!"

The people who had applied the medicine all opened their eyes, all feeling much better, and all watched the man treat the old mother's fire-blindness.

Hearing the old mother's muttering, the filial son was again in a moving appearance, beating his chest and stamping his feet, wanting someone to cure his mother's eyes. The medicine-selling man said: "You must close your eyes! This medicine must take the time of a cup of tea to melt the obstruction on your eyes. When you feel something fall off! Call me again to peel off the obstruction for you..."

The old mother just nodded and shouted: "Divine doctor!"

This performance made more and more people gather in front of the Medicine King Temple, and everyone discussed: "Divine doctor!"

The man hurriedly said: "I am a farmer, I don't understand medicine, it all depends on this piece of sea treasure!"

Then everyone exclaimed: "Divine medicine!"

This shouting reached the Medicine King Temple. The group of doctors who were gathered together watching the foreigners dissect the corpse also heard the shouting, so they sent someone to inquire.

Dr. Hua looked at the completely dissected corpse and was using a brush to depict the blue-black lungs.

At this time, the lung lobes were also opened, placed on a white gauze towel, and passed around for everyone to see.

Looking at the black mucus, the cyan alveoli, and the dense alveoli like jade eggs laid on fish gills, everyone who saw it had a solemn expression.

Hearing the shouting outside, Dr. Hua listened to the report.

He raised his neck and said: "A medicine seller came outside, and everyone who used the medicine is shouting divine medicine."

Dr. Huo shook his head and said: "Eight out of ten are liars, let someone drive him away. Don't let the foreign devils see the joke. These foreign devils are rampant and arrogant, but their medical skills are a school of their own. In my opinion, according to surgery, we may not be their opponents!"

After the time of a cup of tea, the old mother outside shouted: "Something fell off!"

The man took out a small pair of tweezers from his waist and said to the crowd: "Everyone look, this person's eyes are cured!"

He used his fingers to pry open the old mother's eyelids. A thick layer of obstruction covered the black pupils tightly. He used the bone hairpin to peel it off.

The obstruction on the patient's eyes gradually moved. When he used the tweezers to clamp it down, he took it out.

He held up the obstruction for the crowd to see. It was as big as a human fingernail and as thin as a fingernail.

Just as everyone was exclaiming about the divine medicine, someone suddenly smiled: "Let me see?"

Everyone looked back and saw it was a blind man again, so they clustered around him to come up.

Dou the Dou Dou Xiayan touched the obstruction, and his heart was even more certain, so he smiled at the old mother: "Can you open the other eye and see?"

The old woman hesitated and opened the other eye. Dou the Dou Dou Xiayan smiled: "This one hasn't had medicine applied, right!"

The 'filial son' blocked in front of his old mother and glared: "Are you here to make trouble?"

Dou the Dou Dou Xiayan pointed to his own eyes and said: "I have been blind for ten years! Seeing such good medicine, can I not be anxious? You cured your mother, push yourself to others, you should also understand the anxiety of an old man!"

The old woman had no choice but to let him see.

Dou the Dou Dou Xiayan suddenly reached out and wiped her other eye with lightning speed.

"Eh? Why did the obstruction on this other eye also come off?"

He held up his finger for everyone to see. There was indeed a thick layer of obstruction on his fingertip.

Looking at the old woman again, both eyes were bright, and the fire was gone.

Dou the Dou Dou Xiayan twisted the obstruction and sucked his teeth: "This thing, why is it so like a chicken eyelid? Chicken eye is like an obstruction, isn't it fake?"

The onlookers exploded, and someone grabbed the scholar and pointed at his nose to ask.

"What's going on?"

The peddler selling the sea treasure used a cloth to scoop toward his sea treasure and said: "I kindly administered medicine and didn't collect a cent, you are bullying people! I won't give medicine anymore!"

Unexpectedly, the scoop was empty.

Dou the Dou Dou Xiayan held that piece of sea treasure and said: "Don't be anxious, if it's a good thing, I'll buy it all for you!" ===== CHAPTER 953 =====
