Man With Super Medical Skill novel Chapter 2551

"Jasper, that young man really seems quite knowledgeable."

"It's possible, but he's just spouting nonsense. He has only read some books on medicinal herbs. After all, Mr. Murphy is renowned as Hulwin's Walking Encyclopedia of Alternative Medicine."

Despite what he said, the disciple known as Jasper had a troubled expression on his face.

When Elias Murphy asked about toad venom paste, most of the disciples were clueless and had no idea what it was.

"Jasper, what is the use of toad venom paste?"

Faced with the confusion of his juniors, Jasper could only furrow his brow and shake his head.

Upon seeing Jasper's solemn expression, the others immediately gave up on further questioning.

Then, they turned their attention to Matthew, silently waiting for him to make a fool of himself.

If even Jasper didn't know, how could Matthew possibly know about it?

Across from them, Matthew nodded slightly upon hearing about said substance.

Medicinal toxins like toad venom paste were already extremely niche.

It seemed like experienced alternative medicine practitioners like Elias did have some knowledge of it.

Of course, such questions still couldn't stump Matthew.

After organizing his thoughts, he cleared his throat and began to speak slowly.

"Toad venom paste is collected from the toad's skin gland. It has the effect of enhancing mental clarity and awakening the mind. When combined with flour and yellow cinnabar, it can be used to reduce swelling; when mixed with croton and almond, it can treat toothache caused by cavities. Also, blending it with wine and frying it with gastrodia can prevent tetanus."

…

Originally, Elias was still feeling proud of himself for discovering this "toad venom paste" from an extremely obscure remedy.

He had some knowledge about the effects of toad venom paste that Matthew mentioned earlier.

But as Matthew continued to calmly elaborate, Elias started to panic.

That was because he hadn't even heard of the later examples that Matthew mentioned.

When Matthew finally finished listing all the effects, Elias couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

How much knowledge does this young man possess?

However, once he regained his composure, Matthew had already stopped speaking.

"Mr. Murphy, was I correct?"

As soon as these words were spoken, all the disciples shifted their attention to Elias.
