However, no matter how many times Ding Yun browsed the Trans-Dimensional Second-hand Trading Device, she couldn't find any drugs or special items specifically for cancer prevention.
The only thing that might have been somewhat useful, or at least related,
was from the seller in the cultivation world.
The one who specialized in selling expired medicines.
But the pills he offered, either close to expiry, losing efficacy due to improper storage, or failing in refinement with excessive medicinal toxins, were so unreliable that even he dared not guarantee their safety. How could Ding Yun dare to buy them directly?
What if, instead of curing the patient,
she ended up poisoning them to death?
Therefore, to have more options, Ding Yun eventually decided on a two-pronged approach. She would purchase some pills to have professionals analyze their efficacy and side effects, while simultaneously hiring professional physicians, nutritionists, and traditional Chinese medicine practitioners to consult with them on how to maintain health, prevent cancer, and exercise healthily.
If something positive were to come out of it,
or if some experience could be summarized,
it would not only be useful for Xiao Zhu Lingyun's mother but also for herself, her parents, and her elders.
However, these actions…
undoubtedly required a considerable amount of time.
It took Ding Yun more than six months to complete everything she needed to do and prepare all the necessary items. The final experimental result for the Mermaid Pearl confirmed that direct ingestion was harmless to the human body and could effectively nourish cells.
Two expired pills were also selected from the second-hand market that could enhance physical fitness and strengthen the body's foundation.
Furthermore, through separation and purification techniques, all impurities and toxic substances were removed from these two pills, retaining only the core active ingredients.
Although the efficacy of these two pills had largely dissipated due to their expired status, some residual medicinal properties remained. Combined with purification and impurity removal,
their actual effect was even better than that of non-expired ones.
In addition, Ding Yun also successfully summarized a healthy lifestyle and exercise methods.
With all three preparations ready, Ding Yun decided to send them all to ensure no stone was left unturned.
As soon as the items were ready, Ding Yun immediately contacted Xiao Zhu Lingyun again through the Trans-Dimensional Second-hand Trading Device. Just like last time, she directly stated her purpose and informed her of the new future destiny trajectory, so that Xiao Zhu Lingyun could have a clearer understanding of her current predicament.
"So my mother still passed away, still from late-stage stomach cancer, and didn't even live to sixty?"
Xiao Zhu Lingyun was also shocked because she thought her mother would be fine from now on, or at least live long enough for her to successfully develop the cancer cure.
After the initial shock, she began to read Ding Yun's message word by word, sorting out the situation.
Then, with some agitation, she hastily asked:
"What should I do now?
Can you send me a copy of the cancer cure I developed, or can you send me some theories and information related to the cancer cure?
I want to develop the cancer cure before my mom gets sick, is that possible? Can it be?"
Ding Yun directly refused:
"No, if you do that, everything I've done so far will be in vain. Don't rush, don't panic. Since I'm still contacting you and telling you these things, it means I still have a way to prevent your mother from dying so soon.
I will send you more things next.
They are the Mermaid Pearl, the Yuan Pei Elixir, and the Health Tome. Regarding the Mermaid Pearls I sent last time, I don't know if you ate them. Now I need to tell you that I completely misunderstood the way to consume Mermaid Pearls last time. Mermaid Pearls cannot be broken and only the pale blue gel inside eaten. They must be swallowed whole.
Perhaps it was the incorrect method of consumption that resulted in the poor efficacy of the Mermaid Pearls, thus failing to completely reverse your mother's condition. I will send you more this time.
Tell your mother it's a health supplement.
Have her eat one whenever she can.
Also, the Yuan Pei Elixir can help her strengthen her body and consolidate her foundation. As her physical condition improves, the probability of contracting cancer will naturally decrease.
As for the Health Tome, it primarily contains beneficial exercises for the body, correct and healthy eating habits, and lists foods that cause cancer. I have written everything clearly inside. After you read it, remember to teach it to your mother.
With these three measures combined, I believe your mother's physical fitness will see a qualitative leap, and cancer will definitely not find her so soon. And one more thing, please don't act impulsively again. If, one day in the future, your mother is once again diagnosed with cancer,
and your special medicine is not yet developed,
do not do anything extra.
Contact me directly, and I will find a way."
Although Ding Yun believed that by helping Xiao Zhu Lingyun's mother regulate her body through these three methods, it would be highly unlikely for her to contract cancer again, it was always best to be prepared for the unexpected. Therefore, at the end, she specifically reminded her to find her first if any accidents occurred, rather than acting on her own.
Ding Yun sent such a long message, and Xiao Zhu Lingyun in the other time and space naturally needed some time to react. So, after a quarter of an hour,
Xiao Zhu Lingyun sent a reply:
"But there's one thing I don't understand.
If the future me can still contact you and get help, then why couldn't I ultimately save my mother? Does this mean that the future me might no longer be able to contact you?
Or perhaps, even if I contact you, it won't help.
Or I can't save my mother?
Or, it's too late to save my mother?"
Her question stumped Ding Yun. Yes, if the Zhu Lingyun of the year 1971 could still contact her in 1998, twenty-seven years later, she would definitely provide assistance.
But if she had provided assistance,
why would Xiao Zhu Lingyun's mother have died?
And why would she have resorted to radical self-experimentation?
As she pondered these questions, Ding Yun suddenly felt that she might have overlooked something. So, without waiting to reply, or rather, not knowing how to reply, she began to search the corners of the Trans-Dimensional Second-hand Trading Device for any unnoticed text.
After searching diligently for a long time,
finally, on the page where the Trans-Dimensional Second-hand Trading Device contacted the transaction sub-device, she flipped down another page. On the lower right corner of that page, which she had never turned to before,
she saw the key to this problem.
