THE MIGHTIEST LITTLE PEASANT

261-265

Chapter 261

Everyone around him burst out laughing.

Everyone had expressions of mockery on their faces.

Who was Divine Doctor Hu?

He was one of the most prominent figures in the Chinese medicine world.

A teenager was showing off his prescription in front of Doctor Hu. Did he not know who Doctor Who was?

Hu Huaichun did not laugh. Instead, his expression was grim.

He could see that the prescription was genuine, and not merely some herbs thrown together.

He could not yet tell how effective Tang Hao’s prescription was.

He stepped forward and took the basket.

He was surprised when he inspected the contents. He noticed about ten stalks of dried medicinal grasses at a corner of the basket.

If he was not mistaken, that was a common medicinal grass known as baby’s breath. Its main function was to cool down the body and was unrelated to restoring a patient’s vital energy.

His brows were tightly locked. He could not think of the reason why Tang Hao had included that particular grass in his list.

The other herbs were just about what he expected. They were common herbs associated with restoring vital energy, such as dang gui and ginseng.

However, the proportions of the herbs were peculiar. They were totally out of balance.

The proportions of each herb played an important role in a prescription. With the wrong proportions, the medicine would lose half its effectiveness.

Hu Huaichun smirked. “I thought you were going to show me something amazing, but this is a half-bungled assortment of herbs! Do you think that your prescription is better than any of my Hu family ancestral prescriptions?

“My Hu family prescriptions have been studied and improved upon over centuries. They have stood the test of time. They’re a hundred, no, a thousand times better than what you’re showing me!”

Everyone exclaimed loudly when they heard that.

They were not surprised by Hu Huaichun’s verdict. Their gaze upon Tang Hao became more condescending than ever.

“Ignorant!” Tang Hao said coldly.

“You…” Hu Huaichun’s face was red with anger.

‘This kid is too arrogant! Is he still defending his bungled prescription?’

Everyone around him was hotly discussing him.

They thought that the kid had lost in mind!

“Did you just say that I’m ignorant?” Hu Huaichun’s body was trembling with anger.

“If you can’t see the details in this prescription, then I don’t have another adjective for you! How is this prescription bungled?”

“Hah! You got your proportions all wrong!” Hu Huaichun said.

“The proportions are wrong? You must be blind! Didn’t you see that I’ve added baby’s breath in the basket? Don’t tell me that you don’t know about medicinal amelioration!” Tang Hao rolled his eyes as he spoke.

Hu Huaichun’s expression stiffened.

He had heard of the term before, and he knew that it was an extraordinarily advanced technique in Chinese medicine. One would not know how to apply it unless they were a master of Chinese medicine.
