Dialogue[]
Quest DescriptionLife is full of surprises and... accidents. Of course, there's no exception for Shinong.
- (Talk to Shinong)
- Shinong: Um... It's you, Player.
What happened...- Shinong: I fell off the hill by accident. Luckily I got away with only a swollen leg.
- Shinong: According to the pharmacopoeia, a herb called Elderflower grows on the hilltop, which is far more effective for treating external injuries than other herbs.
- Shinong: However, it appears I overestimated my athletic abilities.
- Shinong: Anyway... Ahem, I'll need your help again, Player. Could you go to the hilltop and pick some Elderflowers for me?
- Shinong: Elderflowers grow at the top of that hill, so please be careful. But given your abilities, I'm sure it will be a piece of cake.
- (Hand the Elderflower to Shinong)
- Shinong: Yes, those are the Elderflowers!
- Shinong: According to the pharmacopoeia, simply grind them into paste and apply it to the injury. It takes effect almost immediately.
- Shinon applies the paste to his leg, wincing at the sharp sting it causes.
- Shinong: Ah... All right, this should do it now.
- Feeling any better?
- Shinong: Much better... I should be back on my feet after a bit of rest.
- Shinong: You must find it strange, Player. Why am I out here risking my life instead of treating others back at the clinic in Jinzhou?
- Shinong: Many believe that I'm doing this for fame and attention.
- Shinong: For minor ailments that could easily be treated with injections or pills, using herbs involves a lot of effort, including collecting, concocting, and refining the herbs.
- Shinong: ...They think it's meaningless, just a form of performative art and self-satisfaction. What do you think, Player?
It's about carrying on the tradition.- Plus, many people still rely on it.
- Shinong: Exactly. These pharmacopoeias are the legacy of our ancestors' wisdom. Yet, nowadays, few are willing to put in the time to revise them.
- Shinong: As a result, the errors in these pharmacopoeias keep pilling up, making them less and less trustworthy. Many people who could have been cured end up having their conditions worsen or prolonged due to incorrect treatments.
- Shinong: I'm not doing this for fame. I just want to preserve our ancestors' tradition and help more people avoid suffering.
- That's truly honorable!
- Shinong: ...No, it's just a simple wish. The wish of a doctor.
- Shinong: Maybe I'm just a humble doctor, but at least I have the courage to see it through.
- I wish you all the best!
- Shinong: Thank you for your help, Player. Don't worry, I'll get back in town soon.
