Xavier on the side was also very surprised, and quickly asked, "Old Hughes, do you have any more? If you do, can you sell them? We want as much as you have!"
Maybe then Lance wouldn't have to suffer so much.NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
Old Hughes chuckled, "Do you think you can just buy it easily? It's a rare medicinal herb."
"Well..." Xavier held onto a glimmer of hope.
Old Hughes said, "It was just a coincidence. The girl who has been supplying me with medicinal herbs said she got a few by chance before. I asked if there were any left, and she said there weren't."
Xavier's disappointment was evident, Lance's expression remained unchanged, but the light in his eyes dimmed slightly.
His old illness had been with him for many years.
Over the years, he had searched the world for renowned doctors, but there was no hope for a complete cure. Instead, he found some relief from his old ailment because of Old Hughes' treatment.
Now, finally discovering such miraculous herbs, Lance naturally hoped to purchase more to use for medical research, perhaps to develop a cure. However, hope was dashed once again, and Lance seemed to have long been accustomed to this.
Old Hughes knew they were disappointed, and comforted them, saying, "Alright, even though there are only a few plants of the medicinal herb, it should be enough to be used for a few months. At least, during this time, you can reduce some of the pain. When I see that little girl again, I'll ask again for you. Tonight, just rest here and don't think too much."
After some consideration, he couldn't help but reprimand, "For your illness to be cured, with my medical skills, it's impossible. If you can find that hidden famous doctor Gunner Martinez, there might be a chance for a cure! But before finding this person, you should take care of your own body first! You are human, not a god. Pushing yourself too hard all the time will only exhaust you!"
Lance nodded faintly.
He had sent people to look for Gunner Martinez a long time ago, but there had been no news at all. He began to doubt whether this person really existed in the world!
Gradually, he had lost hope!
Perhaps because of his weak body, Lance soon fell asleep again.
Meanwhile, after dinner, Deanna tidied up the dishes and said, "Gregory, Chloe, you stay home and behave well with Great-grandma, don't run around, okay? Mommy is going to the medicinal garden and will be back soon."
The two children nodded, and said, "Okay, Mommy."
After finishing up, she took off her apron and went out.
Inside the medicinal garden, the green grass shaded the area, and almost all of it was rare medicinal herbs.
These were all left by her master, who taught her medical skills.
Over the years, her master had been
trying to cultivate these rare

medicinal plants, but had not succeeded. Finally, disappointed, he left this place directly to wander.
Now, no one knew where he had gone.
It was only this year that Deanna had managed to cultivate a portion.
However, the medicinal herbs were not fully mature, and the mortality rate was very high. So when the pharmacy owner asked for more, she said there were none left.
Deanna looked at these medicinal seedlings in front of her, crouched down and gently stroked them with her fingertips, couldn't help but sigh.
Misfortunes never come singly. Just
when she was coming back,
something happened. Besides these medicinal herbs, she really didn't know any other way to raise money.
She had already decided to go back tomorrow and ask the pharmacy owner if he could take these medicinal herbs and hopefully sell them for a good price...
