Traveling through various miniature worlds with a small restaurant

Chapter 252 World of Famous Works 41

Upon hearing this, a hint of doubt flashed in Li Lizhi's eyes. This illness had plagued her for many years, and the many effective remedies from the Imperial Hospital had little effect. Could these two people really have a solution?

Thinking of the Monkey King, whom she had only seen in profile at the store before, a faint glimmer of hope rekindled in her heart.

What if?

What if that celestial being, the Monkey King, taught Shopkeeper Lin some magical arts?

She subconsciously clenched her sleeves and nodded slightly: "In that case, I'll have to trouble you two. If it's really difficult, please don't force it."

Lin Xiaoqian nodded, "I'll go upstairs to prepare first, and then you can bring the princess up later, Sister Shuang."

She needs to find a spacious room to place the medical equipment. These machines are for examining people's bodies and are equipped with artificial intelligence. After the examination, they can automatically generate a test report.

After everything was ready, Jiang Shuang brought Li Lizhi in, and Lin Xiaoqian had Li Lizhi lie down on different machines to begin the examination.

After the results came out, Lin Xiaoqian and the others thought that Li Lizhi might have asthma or something, but they didn't expect that it was actually heart failure caused by congenital heart disease.

This was tantamount to a terminal illness in ancient times. No wonder, as the eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty, she was deeply favored by the Tang Emperor and lacked nothing in terms of imperial medicine and herbs, yet she died at a young age.

However, this is nothing to Lin Xiaoqian; she can recover after just one treatment in the medical pod.

Moreover, after getting to know Li Lizhi, she found her to be a very nice person, humble, polite, and able to distinguish right from wrong.

She was so young; wouldn't it be a pity if she died like in history?

Lin Xiaoqian was confident and looked at Li Lizhi with a reassuring expression: "Your Highness, although your illness is troublesome, I have a way to cure it."

Upon hearing this, Li Lizhi's beautiful eyes widened, filled with shock and disbelief. Over the years, countless imperial physicians had shaken their heads and sighed, yet this illness could actually be cured?

Lin Xiaoqian continued, "But I have a request."

Li Lizhi was slightly taken aback, but quickly recovered and asked softly, "Manager Lin, please speak freely. As long as it is within my power, I will definitely agree."

Lin Xiaoqian nodded and said slowly, "I hope you won't tell anyone that I cured your qi ailment, not even the King of Tang."

Li Lizhi knew that Shopkeeper Lin was keeping his ability to treat qi-related illnesses a secret from outsiders to avoid trouble, so she solemnly nodded and said, "Lizhi will keep this a secret. If I break this promise, may I be struck by lightning."

Lin Xiaoqian quickly waved her hand, indicating that she didn't need to make such an oath.

They immediately guided Li Lizhi into the medical ward for treatment.

The hatch closed slowly, the instruments flashed and operated, and the soft light and slight humming intertwined. About fifteen minutes later, the hatch opened, and Li Lizhi felt relaxed all over. Her chest, which was often stuffy, was now incredibly comfortable. She tried to take a deep breath and found that there was no obstruction at all.

"I... I feel much better." Li Lizhi's voice trembled, full of surprise.

She looked at Lin Xiaoqian excitedly: "Manager Lin, I feel much better. Thank you so much for saving my life!"

Lin Xiaoqian smiled and helped her up: "Your Highness, the illness has been cured. You only need to take good care of your health in the future."

Li Lizhi glanced at the enormous object in front of her and couldn't help but ask curiously, "It can cure illnesses in just a moment, is this some kind of divine treasure?"

Lin Xiaoqian waved his hand and couldn't help but say, "No, there aren't that many magical treasures in this world. Ordinary people can make these things."

Upon hearing this, Li Lizhi asked somewhat anxiously, "Could the Tang Dynasty also create such a thing?"

If the Tang Dynasty could also create such a divine object, wouldn't it be able to cure many people's chronic diseases?

"Theoretically, it is certainly possible. However, the current level of production technology and medical care in the Tang Dynasty is relatively low. It would probably take many years to build this thing."

Lin Xiaoqian scratched her head. This medical pod was developed by the country based on the data she brought back from the interstellar world, and it also borrowed technology from interstellar medical pods. Logically speaking, if she hadn't handed the system over to the country, it would have taken them several hundred years to build it.

However, it seems she has something she can give to Li Lizhi.

Lin Xiaoqian turned around and took out a thick red book from the cabinet, with the words "Barefoot Doctor's Manual" written on it in large white characters.

"This can be given to the princess, and hopefully it will play a greater role in her hands."

Li Lizhi took the "Barefoot Doctor's Handbook" with a puzzled look on her face, and gently opened it. What she saw were descriptions of diseases and treatments that she had never seen before.

"Shopkeeper Lin, this..." She looked up, her eyes filled with surprise and anticipation.

Lin Xiaoqian smiled and nodded, "This manual contains practical medical knowledge, from the diagnosis of common diseases to simple treatments. Even ordinary people can learn the basics by following it. You can first have the imperial physicians study it, or print it out and distribute it to the people. It will definitely improve the current medical situation."

Li Lizhi hugged the handbook tightly to her chest. "Don't worry, Shopkeeper Lin, Lizhi will definitely live up to your expectations."

She had to go to the palace to report to the Tang Emperor about the greenhouse potatoes, so she hurriedly took her leave as soon as she came out of the medical pod.

Time flies, and two years later...

The railway connecting Chang'an and Luoyang has finally opened to traffic.

In the past two years, the Tang Dynasty has undergone tremendous changes. Pipelines throughout the country have been paved with solid cement, and most of the crops in the fields have been replaced with high-yield corn, potatoes, and sweet potatoes. With increased grain production, the population has increased, official roads have become smoother, trade has increased, and people's pockets have naturally become fuller.

Sure enough, early in the morning, the area outside Chang'an City was packed with people. The newly built Chang'an Railway Station was decorated in a lively and festive manner, with red ribbons fluttering and gongs and drums resounding.

The Tang emperor personally led a group of ministers to the scene and even rode on the first steam train of the Tang Dynasty.

With a long whistle, the brand-new steam train slowly pulled out of the station.

The enormous machine was billowing thick smoke, and the rhythmic sound of its wheels rubbing against the rails drew gasps of amazement from the onlookers.

Emperor Tang sat in the train carriage, looking out the window at the cheering crowd, his heart filled with emotion, realizing how right his decision had been.

The train traveled smoothly, and the scenery on both sides unfolded rapidly behind us like a scroll painting.

The Tang emperor even handled some government affairs on the train. The train ran relatively smoothly without any violent jolts.

When Emperor Tang got tired of reviewing memorials, he looked up at the window. The train was passing through a vast field, where the fields were lush and green. Corn, potatoes and sweet potatoes swayed gently in the breeze. When the people working in the fields saw the train speeding by, they stopped what they were doing, their faces full of curiosity and excitement. Some waved their farm tools and cheered loudly at the train.

As Li Shimin watched this scene, the corners of his mouth unconsciously turned up. In the future, his Tang Dynasty would surely be better and stronger.
