I started out with seven husbands, and I worked hard to support my family while crying.

Chapter 572: I am the reincarnation of the divine healer Hua Tuo

Night fell over the Fang family courtyard, and all was quiet except for the dim light still shining in Fang Xiaoxiao's room.

Fang Xiaoxiao sat at a table piled with medical books and herbs, her brows furrowed, staring intently at an ancient book in her hands.

Her fingers traced lightly between the pages of the book, her eyes eagerly searching for every prescription related to the treatment of brain injuries.

Time passed by, and Fang Xiaoxiao had already read through dozens of medical books, filling several pages with dense notes.

Her eyes were bloodshot, but she showed no sign of stopping.

Suddenly, her gaze fell on a prescription, and her eyes lit up as if she had discovered a new continent.

"This is it!"

She excitedly muttered to herself, "This combination of herbs might have a repairing effect on brain damage."

After finalizing the prescription, Fang Xiaoxiao began preparing the medicinal materials.

She carefully opened each medicine box, took out the necessary herbs one by one, and carefully checked the quality of each herb.

"This ginseng is not old enough, so its medicinal effect may be insufficient."

She frowned, muttered to herself, and then rummaged through the medicine box for a long time before finally finding a ginseng root of excellent age.

Next, Fang Xiaoxiao began to prepare the medicinal herbs. Holding a delicate little scale, she precisely weighed the herbs, each movement meticulous and focused.

"A little too much and the medicine will be too strong; a little too little and the effect will be poor."

She weighed it while silently reciting the instructions in her mind.

While preparing a rare medicinal herb, her hand trembled and she almost dropped it. She was so frightened that her face turned pale. She quickly reached out to steady herself, and fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.

After preparing the medicinal herbs, Fang Xiaoxiao put them into the medicine pot and began to decoct them.

She stood guard by the medicine pot, her eyes fixed on the heat, stirring it occasionally with a spoon.

As the medicine simmered, the aroma filled the room, making her cough incessantly, but she paid no heed. As time passed, the broth thickened and darkened in color.

A relieved smile appeared on Fang Xiaoxiao's face. She knew that she was one step closer to success.

As dawn broke, Li Wan'er, accompanied by her maid, boarded the familiar carriage from the Rong Prince's Mansion and slowly headed towards the City God Temple.

Throughout the journey, Li Wan'er's mind was not on the scenery. The image of Li Renyi unconscious kept appearing in her mind, and her heart was filled with worry and concern.

Upon arriving at the City God Temple, Li Wan'er, as usual, hurried into the temple.

However, the City God Temple today is different from the past, with crowds thronging and noise filling the air.

Li Wan'er was puzzled and looked in the direction of the sound. She saw a crowd gathered around, and in the center of the crowd, a man in a Taoist robe was talking fluently.

"Fellow villagers, I am the reincarnation of the legendary healer Hua Tuo!"

The man's voice was loud and clear, with a slightly exaggerated tone, "No matter what kind of difficult or complicated illness, I can cure it with my skillful hands. Even the dying can be brought back to life!"

As he spoke, he waved the whisk in his hand, looking extremely confident, as if he were truly a divine healer descended from heaven.

"A few days ago, an old man named Zhang from a neighboring village was diagnosed with a terminal illness by a doctor, and there was no cure."

After taking the miraculous medicine I personally concocted, he was able to get out of bed and walk around within three days, and he has now fully recovered!

The man spoke at length about his so-called success stories, his words full of persuasiveness. The surrounding crowd looked surprised and curious, whispering among themselves.

"How much does one dose of this miracle drug cost?"

someone asked loudly.

"In order to save all living beings, I will only charge the cost price today, one tael of silver per dose!"

The man answered with a smile, his face showing a compassionate expression.

Upon hearing this, a commotion immediately arose in the crowd.

Some people hesitated, after all, one or two taels of silver was not a small amount;

However, some people were deceived by the man's sweet talk and took out their money, vying to get the medicine.

Li Wan'er initially scoffed at the tricks of these charlatans, thinking to herself, "How could there be such a miraculous medicine in this world? It must be a scam."

However, just as she was about to turn and leave, someone in the crowd suddenly shouted, "The legendary healer Hua Tuo truly lives up to his name! My son had a high fever a few days ago and was unconscious. We've consulted so many doctors, but nothing has worked."

"After taking your miraculous medicine, my fever broke that very day, and now I'm lively and energetic again!"

As they were talking, a middle-aged woman carrying a child squeezed through the crowd. The child looked energetic and showed no signs of illness.

This scene stirred something in Li Wan'er's heart, and she stopped in her tracks.

"Is this medicine really that miraculous?"

A sense of doubt crept into her mind. Seeing this, those around her were even more convinced, and more and more people donated money for medicine, making the scene increasingly lively.

Influenced by the crowd, Li Wan'er's curiosity gradually overcame her doubts, and she couldn't help but follow the crowd toward the legendary healer Hua Tuo, wanting to find out more.

When Hua Tuo, the legendary healer, saw Li Wan'er approaching, he was secretly delighted, but his face still maintained that inscrutable expression.

He slightly raised his head, squinted at Li Wan'er for a moment, and deliberately said slowly, "Young lady, judging from your hurried expression, you must have a sick person at home who urgently needs medical treatment?"

Li Wan'er was extremely anxious and didn't care about anything else. She directly revealed her identity: "I am Princess Li Wan'er. I have heard that you have a miraculous medicine that can save the seriously ill. I hope you can give me some to save the life of my beloved."

When Hua Tuo, the legendary healer, heard that it was a princess, he was overjoyed. However, he pretended to be troubled, frowned, and slowly shook his head: "Princess, this divine medicine is good, but it is not easy to obtain."

I've spent countless hours and used a great deal of precious medicinal herbs to refine this medicine these past few days, and now there's very little left... It's truly..."

He didn't finish his sentence, but the implication was clear.

Upon hearing this, Li Wan'er grew even more anxious. Her hands clenched involuntarily, and fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead. "Divine Doctor, please, I'm willing to pay any price. I'll do anything to save his life."

Her voice was choked with sobs, and her eyes were full of pleading.

Seeing that the time was right, Hua Tuo, the divine healer, sighed slightly and said, "Since the princess is so sincere, I cannot stand by and watch her die."

However, this medicine is extremely precious. If the princess wants it, she will need to pay more silver to compensate for the losses I incurred in refining the ingredients.

Without a second thought, Li Wan'er immediately took out one hundred taels of silver from her bosom and handed it to Hua Tuo's subordinate: "Is this enough? I have more if it can save him."

Her eyes were filled with expectation, as if this packet of powder was Li Renyi's lifeline.
