Genji Doju was startled and asked, "What did you say? Kawashima has already tried four different formulas?"
He had been preoccupied, pondering why Kawashima Haruhiro was showing symptoms of vital Qi depletion and collapse of Yang Qi. Lost in thought, he hadn't been paying attention to the situation and was unaware of this development. It wasn't until he heard his disciple's question that he realized something was very wrong.
The disciple nodded. "Yes. I've been counting. Four formulas. I'm absolutely sure."
The words had barely left his mouth when Kawashima Haruhiro's voice drifted out from the examination room. "Go, get me another dose of medicine according to this formula. The pharmacy doesn't need to brew it this time. Find me a stove and a pot—I'll brew it myself. The previous formulas had no effect. It's probably because the people in your pharmacy don't know how to brew the medicine properly."
"Senior Brother wrote another formula?"
"This is the fifth one!"
