Mage Joan

Chapter 30: Poisoning



Joan returned today earlier than usual. The sky was not completely dark when he walked into the town. The open doors and windows on both sides of the street smelled of toast and stew, which seduce his stomach and made him voluntarily accelerate his pace towards the clinic. .

Dr. Kaylandil just sent away the last patient who made an appointment today. When he was about to lock the door and saw Joan, he invited him into the clinic and casually asked him how he got today.

Joan opened the backpack and first took out the wooden box containing the leech. He often said that he could bring back thousands of fresh leeches, but today there are only less than two hundred larks in the box.

Dr. Kaylandil was wondering why he had so little harvest today. Joan pulled out two large bundles of moist soil wrapped root plants from his backpack, and finally took out a glass of translucent liquid. Ampoule.

The doubt in the half-elf's eyes was quickly replaced by surprise, and he couldn't help asking Joan: "Where did you collect so many bloodroots?"

"A place deep in the lizard swamp."

"Deep in the swamp?" Dr. Kailandil was even more surprised. "You'd better not go to that terrible place again, it's not worth the risk of life for a few herbs."

"A friend helped me gather bloodroot grass, it lives in a swamp and is familiar with the environment there."

Dr. Kailandil opened his mouth, and finally pressed down on the urge to find the bottom. He turned to take the glass bottle, looked at it, unscrewed the cork stopper carefully, and freed his left hand to move up to the top of the bottle and face him. The direction of the fan lightly fanned, so that the fine scent particles escaping from the narrow-necked bottle floated towards the tip of his nose, and immediately smelled a faint astringent.

"It seems to be a glandular secretion of some kind of organism." Kailandil made a guess based on his pharmaceutical experience.

Joan nodded admiringly. "It's a toxin secreted by a black water snake."

Kailandil took out a small dropper, drew a drop of snake venom from the narrow-necked flask and smeared it on the light gray test paper, illuminating it against the candlelight, and pondered, "It should be the toxin of the wire snake, this thing It is very effective in treating joint and muscle swelling and pain. Each ounce is worth hundreds of gold Durga.

Joan looked at the small bottle of snake venom he had collected, and visually looked like a 0.5 ounce, with a value of not less than 50 gold duga, at least equivalent to 5000 leeches!

"Are you going to sell them all?" Kailandil pointed to the bloodroot grass and snake venom on the table, his eyes burning.

Joanne could see that Mr. Kailandil was very interested in these rare herbs. After a little thought, he decided to be honest.

"Doctor, I want to keep some herbs for practice.

Kailandil stunned slightly, and then he heard what he meant.

"Twenty parts of bloodroot extract with a refined snake venom?"

Joan nodded embarrassedly.

"That kind of toxin is dangerous, you..." Kailandil stopped talking.

"Please don't worry, I will never use poison to harm people!" Joan swears, and also adds a sentence in his heart, "Unless the other party actively provokes me."

Kairandil hesitated for a long time before reluctantly nodding, and instructed Joan to strictly adhere to the moral bottom line of medical practitioners, neither to sell poison to those who misbehave for profit, nor to use living people as experimental subjects on the human body. Carrying out poison experiments, if they violate these creeds, they will be spurned by others, and even lead to prison.

Joe listened quietly to Dr. Kailandil's teachings and carefully recorded every word he said.

"The refining of bloodroot grass and snake venom is not as simple as written in the book. If you have no experience and no equipment, you will definitely have problems if you rush to do it. It is nothing to waste precious materials. In case of an experimental accident, "It's really dangerous." Dr. Kailandil sighed. "You go home for dinner first, and come to my laboratory at eight o'clock. I will teach you the technique of refining medicinal herbs."

"Thank you so much!" Joan bowed excitedly to Dr. Kairandil.

Bringing 40 gold coins from the sale of leeches and some medicinal herbs back home, Joanne wrote today's experience on paper and handed it to Condy who was waiting for his dinner at the table, and by the way, he also indicated that he would go to Dr. Kairandil at night Take classes there.

"You're really busy all day." Kandy put down the note with a smile, and filled him with a bowl of creamy soup. "Eat more and eat enough to learn."

Potatoes and green beans are badly stewed, mixed with a lot of cream and ham crumbs, seasoned with salt, pepper, rosemary, rich in mouth, silky, mellow, this ultimate deliciousness almost stimulates Joan’s tear glands out of control and has to Admit that Kandy's cooking skills are much better than himself.

A bowl of thick soup plus two large slices of thick toasted bread, Joan lowered the soup with satisfaction, thinking that the King's dinner was no different.

"Condy, there are ingredients at home?"

"Yes, but there is not much left. I will go to Aunt Barbara's shop tomorrow to buy."

Joan nodded, took out his money bag, counted 10 gold coins and handed it to Kandy.

"I made a lot of money today. You can use it to buy food, which is considered to be a household this month."

Kandy took the gold coin, hesitated for a long time, and finally said something in his heart: "Joan, my injury is almost cured, and I might be home before the end of the month."

Joan froze for a moment, then remembered that Kandy was not his family, but lived in the town temporarily, and eventually left, after all, she also had her own family and relatives and friends.

"when are we leaving?"

"Not determined yet, wait for my parents to pick me up."

"Got it, I wish you a family reunion as soon as possible."

"I'm gone, will you be sad? Even if only a little..."

"Maybe." Qiao An didn't dare to look directly at the girl's clear gaze, and hurriedly got up with a vague response. "It's too early to say that, I'm leaving now."

On the street, Joan's mood calmed down in the cold night breeze. Looking back at what Kandy said just now, I feel a bit heavy.

In fact, Kandy came to Delin only a month, but in his subconscious, this hearty and lively Asa girl seems to have become an integral part of the family, not necessarily thinking about her, but there are few at home Such a person would make him feel empty. However, Joan had to face reality. It was just an accident that Kandy walked into his life. She and he were not in the same world, just like two roads. After a short intersection, they still had to return to the normal state of running things.

After all, Joan was not a "passionate seed". After walking along the street for a while, his mood gradually returned to calm, and he no longer struggled with Condy to stay. His thoughts returned to the pharmacy experiment class tonight.
