So, Mu Feng acted swiftly. He went to the pharmacy and skillfully prepared the medicine. His hands moved swiftly between the medicine cabinets, each herb precisely grasped with practiced ease. After preparing the medicine, he handed the prescription to the young man, instructing him in detail how to administer it to the old woman and the precautions to take during the treatment. In the following days, Mu Feng and the renowned doctor closely monitored the old woman's condition. Every morning, they would arrive at the ward early to inquire about her health, observing her complexion, tongue coating, and pulse. However, several days passed, and the old woman's condition showed little improvement. She remained listless in bed, a hint of despair in her eyes. Her body grew increasingly weak, as if a gentle breeze could knock her over.
Looking at the suffering old woman on the hospital bed, Mu Feng felt a pang of guilt and helplessness. He felt he had failed the young man's trust and hadn't been able to improve the old woman's condition. He recalled his experience helping the wealthy merchant, when conventional treatments had failed, and it was only through a folk remedy he had remembered that the merchant was brought back from the brink of death. He thought that perhaps there were many unrecorded folk remedies that could cure the old woman's illness. As long as there was a glimmer of hope, he would never give up.
With this in mind, Mu Feng resolutely decided to embark on his search once more. He bid farewell to the renowned doctors and the staff at the clinic, and alone, carrying his bag, he set off on a journey to find folk remedies. He traveled along country lanes, the roads muddy and the rain soaking his shoes, making every step difficult. But he did not falter; he held only one belief in his heart: he must find a way to cure the old woman. He entered one remote village after another, where the houses were dilapidated and the roads rugged. Although the villagers lived a hard life, they were very kind and simple. In each place, he would inquire in detail about any local folk remedies or prescriptions for treating difficult illnesses, not letting go of any possible clues. He patiently listened to the villagers' stories and carefully recorded every piece of useful information.
Persistence pays off. After many days of searching, Mu Feng finally found an elderly man, well over seventy, in a remote mountain village. The old man sat on a worn-out chair in the courtyard, his eyes revealing a profound wisdom. Mu Feng stepped forward, respectfully bowed to the old man, and explained his purpose. The old man nodded slightly and slowly said, "I do know of a special treatment that might cure that old woman's illness. However, the medicinal herbs required for this treatment are extremely rare, growing on cliffs, and harvesting them is very dangerous. The cliffs are towering into the clouds, steep and precipitous, shrouded in mist; a slight misstep could result in certain death." Upon hearing this, a determined glint flashed in Mu Feng's eyes. He said without hesitation, "As long as it can cure the patient's illness, I'm willing to try, no matter how dangerous! I hope you can tell me the exact location of the medicinal herbs." The old man was moved by Mu Feng's persistence and courage. He looked Mu Feng over carefully, a hint of admiration in his eyes. Then, he told Mu Feng in detail about the growing locations and harvesting methods of the medicinal herbs.
After thanking the old man, Mu Feng hurried towards the cliff face. When he reached the edge, he saw the cliff towering into the clouds, seemingly piercing the sky. The cliff was steep and precipitous, as if cleaved by a giant axe, inspiring awe. Clouds and mist swirled between the cliffs, as if draping them in a mysterious veil. But Mu Feng did not back down. He took a deep breath, secured the rope, and carefully began to climb down the cliff. During his climb, he encountered danger many times. Loose rocks nearly caused him to slip; the rope snapped, and he clung tightly to the rocks to save his life. But he never gave up, relying on his tenacious will and unwavering faith to move down step by step. Finally, in a corner of the cliff, he discovered the precious medicinal herb. He carefully picked the herb, his heart filled with joy and excitement.
After returning to the clinic with the medicinal herbs, Mu Feng carefully treated the old woman according to the old man's instructions. His hands trembled slightly, his heart filled with both nervousness and anticipation. He knew this was his last chance; success or failure hinged on this. After a period of treatment, a miracle occurred again. The old woman's condition gradually improved. Her complexion became rosy, and her spirits lifted. She was able to sit up and talk to her family. Seeing his mother's transformation, the young man was moved to tears. He knelt before Mu Feng and the renowned doctor again, gratefully saying, "Two miraculous doctors, you have given my mother a second life! I will never forget your immense kindness!"
This incident made Mu Feng and the renowned doctor realize that folk remedies are like an inexhaustible treasure trove, containing immense wisdom and value. They deeply understand that the exploration of medicine is endless, and only by continuously revising and improving medical books can more difficult and complex diseases be treated, benefiting more people.
Therefore, Mu Feng and the renowned doctor decided to dedicate their lives to revising and perfecting the medical book. They continued their travels, collecting more folk remedies and prescriptions. They traversed mountains and rivers, venturing into every corner, exchanging ideas with folk healers, and learning from their experience and wisdom. At the same time, they incorporated the latest medical research findings, revising the medical book time and again. Each revision made the book more complete and practical.
As time passed, the medical books of Mu Feng and other renowned doctors gained increasing influence in the medical community, becoming classic works for countless physicians to study and reference. Their names were remembered by posterity, and their deeds were widely circulated among the people, becoming an immortal legend. And that medical book, which embodies their countless efforts, will live on forever, continuing to contribute to human health and becoming a shining pearl in medical history.
As time flowed by, the medical books written by Mu Feng and other renowned physicians, with their exquisite medical insights and practical remedies, spread widely across the land like willow catkins fluttering in spring. In no time, the books became famous, and patients from all over suffering from intractable diseases, upon hearing of the superb medical techniques recorded within, seemed to see a glimmer of hope in the darkness, and flocked to the books with a strong desire for recovery.
The clinic where Mu Feng and the renowned doctor worked instantly became the focus of everyone's attention, bustling with activity every day. Outside the clinic, cars and people were constantly moving, and patients, either supported by their families or sitting on makeshift stretchers, formed a long queue that stretched as far as the eye could see, like a winding dragon.
