This medicinal soup is formally known as Fuxi Perfect Soup, a specialty perfected by Daoist Jiu; he is the only person in the world who knows how to prepare it. Including Xiao Yang, only two people now know the recipe. The herbs required for Fuxi Perfect Soup are all extremely rare, so the pot currently being brewed is a low-specification version. Daoist Jiu substituted common herbs for the rare ones; while its efficacy is significantly reduced, it remains capable of healing the sick and saving lives.

"Bring me the supplies," Xiao Yang said. "I'm going to stitch up his wounds."
