In the world of martial arts, those who cross the Longhu Pass can be called second-rate.
There is no fixed level of first-class masters at the next level. In martial arts terms, from the Dragon Tiger Pass to the top, with the inner strength and outer strength, everyone will fight again, and the one who wins and is recognized is the first-class.
Therefore, warriors of the first-class level are very special in the world. They are either in seclusion, challenging others, or accepting challenges from others.
You don't have to accept it, but few warriors would.
For decades, I have been practicing in the cold and summer, practicing Sanjiu in winter and Sanfu in summer. What is it for? Only money, the name is two words.
This name alone makes countless warriors rush towards the first-class level, but how many people can really stand on it? Who can be willing to give it up to others after standing on it?
So I can only hold on tightly to death, and I will be beaten no matter how hard I come!
At the entrance of the village, the little old man greeted Chen Yu with a smile, and he took the initiative to step forward, intending to chat.
Doctor You seemed to also believe in Taoism. He smiled and nodded at this handsome young Taoist. The two walked out of the crowd outside the village and came to the field ridge to chat.
When you get close, your mental energy can almost penetrate the opponent's layer of flesh, and you can see the blood and bones coming out of it.
It was at this time that Chen Yu finally concluded that the kind-faced old man in front of him was indeed above second-rate. As for whether he was first-rate... he didn't know. After all, first-rate was all about fighting and did not show anything in the realm.
But judging from the condition inside the opponent's body, the muscles are extremely tight, the person is not tall, but the bones are broad, especially on the back where there are many traces of deliberate tempering.
After sensing it, he is estimated to be a bit stronger than the Chen Yuanhu he met during the Dharma Conference.
That man was a second-rate master with great reputation in Guangyong Mansion a few years ago. Now the man in front of him is more powerful. If he is not a recluse, he is very likely to be among the first-rate masters.
But this has nothing to do with Chen Yu. Although he is curious about this martial arts master, there are too many strange masters in the world, and there are also many who hide from the world. Bao Buqi is one of them in front of him, or maybe
As the other person said, I was just traveling.
He didn't go to inquire about this. To find out more, he had to pay attention to the occasion.
"Old man Yunheguan once heard from nearby villagers that there was a Taoist priest named Li who was so profound in Taoism that he could hear thunder piercing his ears."
Doctor You clasped his fists, unclenched his hands and put them in his sleeves, narrowed his eyes, and looked like an old farmer from the countryside.
There is no trace of the ferocity of a warrior.
Chen Yu wasn't surprised by this, because he wasn't either. I guess this person also didn't like to touch human lives.
As the two chatted, they realized that this person was from Huayin County in the east. Huayin is far away from the Five Lakes and is thousands of miles away from the seven states in the southwest.
When asked why he came here, the other party replied that there are big mountains in the southwest, lofty mountains and ridges everywhere, ancient trees and towering clouds, and many medicinal herbs grow here, which are rarely seen in places south of the river and north of the river.
As a medical doctor, I had planned to travel here a long time ago, but now my wish has come true.
Only then did he know that the other party's full name was Kewei. He was born in Jintang, a master of medicine. His ancestors practiced medicine and cured diseases. He was well-known in Huayin and was highly respected by the people.
"Hang the pot to help the world, poor Taoists admire it."
"The Taoist Master praised me. There are countless diseases in the world, but I have only seen 10% of them. From what I have seen, there are only a few that can be cured. Words of relief are too much."
Chen Yu smiled and didn't believe it. The other party was obviously being humble. How could an experienced doctor who had traveled north and south and healed countless people only treat a few types of diseases?
Then he asked about Liu Da’s sister.
"But bloating?"
Hearing this, You Kewei happily said: "Exactly, I didn't expect that the Taoist priest would also be interested in pathology."
He really didn't expect that he had thought that the young Taoist priests came here to be asked to perform rituals to exorcise evil spirits. Eight out of ten Taoist priests who encountered this kind of thing only relied on exorcism rituals to do it - this was too common, especially along the way.
But I have seen too much.
"Knowing a little bit is very superficial and not comparable to a layman."
Chen Yu's level of medicine is not even comparable to his Taoism, not even half a bucket of water. Skip this sentence and ask about the specific situation.
He had never been inside at that time. He only heard about it from the mouths of Liu Da and a few others, and he did not know the specific reasons.
You Kewei stroked his goatee and told him that Sister Liu's liver qi was weak and weak, or she had liver disease. This time she was induced, and the degree of stagnation was not serious.
"The lower abdomen is slightly bulging with half a finger, and it is not as good as wood when pressed. It can still be treated with medicinal stones."
He also said that if he waited a few more days until his belly was as big as a bucket, he might be afraid that his stomach would be filled with water and his heart and lungs would be broken. Even if Taoist descended to earth, he would be unable to do anything.
"I've suffered a lot these past few days. I'll just take care of myself a little bit in the future and avoid eating foods that make me feel weak."
He kept the prescription and ground some herbs he picked, which alleviated the other party's symptoms and made him feel better. He should have fallen asleep now.
Chen Yu asked something about bloating. He might not be able to get this disease, but he couldn't tell what would happen in the future. If he encountered it again, at least there would be a precedent to follow.
"There are too few doctors in Xizhou. They are far inferior to those in the Central Plains and Jiangnan, and even worse than Mobei."
Shaking his head and sighing, You Kewei had seen many people who unfortunately died of illness due to lack of medical treatment. He made no secret of Chen Yu's request. This prescription was widely circulated in the five lakes, and it was not some precious secret that was not passed down.
.
The two of them whispered to each other, and thanks to Chen Yu's outstanding memory and understanding ability brought about by his increased mental strength, he was able to keep up with each other even in areas that he had not explored in depth.
He was mostly listening to the narration, while the little old man was talking. When he stopped talking, You Kewei's face was calm but his heart was filled with ups and downs.
"Little Taoist Priest, your talent in pharmacology is really great. If you hadn't already had a master, I would have wanted to pass on my entire life's medical skills to support you."
"Whereas, even a poor Taoist has gained a lot, and I would like to thank the layman for his openness."
After thanking him twice, he saw that the other party thought about it briefly and then turned around and went to the village. Before leaving, he asked him to stay for a while.
Chen Yu waited for the other party to come back and saw that he was holding two books in his hands.
You Kewei was really happy to see the Taoist, but at the same time he was a little regretful that he could not accept him as his disciple. However, seeing that the Taoist was very interested in medicine and pharmacology, he still gave him some things in the hope that he would achieve success.
Chen Yu took it and looked down.
A book called "Xuanjing Baicaolu" was written by You Ke himself. It records the various medicinal herbs that the other party has seen during his thousands of miles of travel, including their appearance, habits, pharmacological effects, poisonous side effects, etc.
It is about twenty pages long and is not the original manuscript.
"Not long ago, a friend needed two copies and sent them to him. I left one copy, so I gave it to the Taoist priest."
Chen Yu didn't make any fuss, he just put it away neatly, Gong Gong made a neat ceremony and said thank you.
When this scene fell into You Kewei's eyes, he couldn't help stroking his beard and laughing, his expression even more satisfied.
It's easy to follow, without any pretense, and it really suits his heart. It's a pity that it can't be passed on to him personally.
Opposite, Chen Yu looked at another book, but it was not the expected medical book, but a Taoist scripture.
"Feng Pu San Dan"
As you can see, this is an alchemy book, but it is different from the ascendant lead-mercury elixir method. What is recorded in the book is a completely different path to alchemy.
The more he looked, the more immersed Chen Yu became, his eyes shining brightly, as if a new world had opened up.
