When they heard that the assessment was about to start, everyone's expressions became serious.
After all, everyone who comes here wants to become Zhou Fu's disciple.
Zhou Fu cleared his throat and continued: "There are three levels in the assessment. The first level is to select the designated medicinal materials from a pile of herbs provided by Miaochuntang within the specified time."
"The second level is to tell me the treatment plan for a disease that I have designated, and to talk about my own opinions."
"As for the third level, this person must please me, Zhou. If I don't like him, I will not accept him as my disciple, no matter how superb his medical skills are!"
As soon as Zhou Fu finished speaking, everyone began to whisper to each other, talking in small groups in low voices.
"It sounds like this test isn't very difficult."
"Yes, why do I think that anyone who has studied medicine can pass the test?"
"This first level is not difficult at all, it's just a matter of choosing medicinal materials. We are all serious medical students after all. If we can't even choose the right medicinal materials, then all the medical skills we have learned over the years will be in vain!"
"But I always feel that it can't be that simple. If it were really not difficult at all, wouldn't everyone present be able to become Master Zhou's apprentice? Is there still a need for assessment?"
"Also, Master Zhou only said that the second level is to tell the treatment plan and opinions for a disease. We don't know what kind of disease it is. If it is some complicated disease, how many people are present?
Can you tell?"
"That's right. All in all, becoming Master Zhou's disciple is by no means an easy task!"
"..."
For a time, everyone had different opinions.
Qiao Lin had the same idea as most people, she thought it was not that difficult.
She pulled Qiao Hong and Qiao Jing and whispered: "After listening to the content of this assessment, I suddenly feel a lot more confident!"
Qiao Hong's idea was exactly the opposite of Qiao Lin's. She reminded: "Don't be too happy too early. There will be monsters when things go wrong. It sounds simple, but it won't be that way in practice later."
Qiao Jing naturally thought it couldn't be that easy, but she didn't say anything and just watched silently.
Sure enough, after the people from Miaochundang took out the herbs used for the assessment, Zhou Fu added: "In ten minutes, find Duhuo, Platycodon, Xiangjiapi, Tiankuizi, and Millet Spatholobus among this pile of herbs.
, and seven medicinal herbs such as Hedyotis diffusa.”
"Those who do not exceed the time and make no mistakes will be successfully promoted to the second level. Otherwise, they will be eliminated directly."
The pile of herbs and the frivolous words instantly caused an uproar among everyone.
"Sure enough, we thought too simply. I recognize all seven of these medicinal materials, but deliberately adding some medicinal materials that are so similar that they are easily confused, the difficulty suddenly increased!"
"That's right, since there is Duhuo here, it must be Qianghuo. If there is platycodon, there will be American ginseng. If there is fragrant bark, there will be eleuthero bark. If there is geranium seed, there will be Cyperus rotunda. If there is Millet Spatholobus, there will be Spatholobus. There are
Hedyotis diffusa and Waterweed are the hardest to identify. Although I know they are very similar, if I had to identify them, I would definitely make a mistake!"
"It seems that half of the people may be eliminated in this first level!"
"..."
Most of the group of people who were so confident a moment ago were withered away in the blink of an eye.
Qiao Hong glanced at Qiao Lin, who was stunned next to her, and asked in a low voice, "How are you doing? Do you still have confidence now?"
Qiao Lin had a sad face, shook her head and said, "My confidence was shattered when I saw the pile of herbs."
Seeing Qiao Lin looking discouraged, Qiao Jing felt that he needed to cheer her up and regain her confidence.
She patted Qiao Lin on the shoulder and said, "Second sister, don't be discouraged. Believe in yourself. As long as you work hard, you can do it."
"You're right!" Qiao Lin nodded and cheered herself up: "Nothing is difficult in the world, as long as you are willing, I can do it!"
Just as he was talking, Zhou Fu's voice sounded again, "Everyone, the assessment starts now and will end in ten minutes. Please make sure you take your time."
As soon as these words came out, everyone quickly took their places, gathered around the pile of herbs, and began to carefully select them.
Zhou Fu put his hands behind his back and silently observed everyone's performance.
The reason why he took the selection of medicinal materials as the first level of assessment is because identifying medicinal materials is a skill that a qualified doctor must master.
Although some medicinal herbs look the same, their effects are completely different.
If a doctor cannot even distinguish the medicinal materials and gives the wrong medicine to the patient, a life will be lost in minutes!
When the assessment time is approaching, people pass the assessment one after another.
Yang Xiaoxiao was one step ahead of Qiao Hong and Qiao Lin.
Qiao Hong and Qiao Lin were stuck in passing. Fortunately, after inspection, all seven medicinal materials were found correctly and there were no mistakes.
Both of them breathed a sigh of relief as they successfully advanced to the second level.
Qiao Jing also smiled slightly, feeling happy for the two of them.
Qiao Lin patted her heart, still looking frightened, "It really scared me to death. I almost thought I was going to be eliminated just now!"
Qiao Hong also echoed, "Yes, it was really dangerous. Fortunately, we caught up, otherwise it would have been a round trip."
At this moment, Yang Xiaoxiao's sarcastic voice came again.
"I've said it a long time ago. Considering the level of inexperience you two sisters have, it's best to go back home as soon as possible."
Qiao Hong and Qiao Lin glared at her angrily.
Before the two sisters could say anything, Yang Xiaoxiao spoke again, with a very contemptuous tone, "You can't even do something as basic as distinguishing medicinal materials, and you dare to dream of becoming Master Zhou's apprentice? You're not afraid of making people laugh!
"
Qiao Lin snorted coldly and refuted: "Do you think you are very powerful? You are only one minute faster than us. If you are really so capable, do you need to spend so much time?"
Qiao Hong also sneered: "You are only a minute faster, but you still have the nerve to come in front of us and complain? You are just the same as us. I really don't know where you got the nerve to laugh at us!"
"Who is the same as you?"
Yang Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes to express her disdain for Qiao Hong and Qiao Lin, and then said in a sarcastic tone: "You two sisters are trying to put money on your faces. What qualifications do you have for people like you?"
Comparable to me?"
"You are lucky if you can pass the first level. I want to see if you will be so lucky next time!"
Qiao Hong and Qiao Lin couldn't stand Yang Xiaoxiao's arrogance, and they were so angry that they wanted to rush up and beat her.
Seeing this, Qiao Jing quickly stopped the two of them and reminded her in a low voice: "Eldest sister, second sister, please calm down. This is the apprenticeship site. It's not appropriate to do anything here. You have to teach her a lesson. Let's wait until the matter here is over.
