"This..." Guangxie was speechless and paused for a long time before receiving the answer, "You, a young man who has just studied medicine, have the foresight to question this sensible medical doctrine that has been passed down for centuries? Now you should study hard and read more and memorize more. This is the right path.
"
"Otherwise." This time, the old Taoist interrupted in a low voice, "What was said in the Spring and Autumn Period is that the mother's disease affects the child, 'the child's disease turns against the mother', and 'if it is deficient, it will nourish the mother, but if it is true, it will weaken the son'." It seems to be true. I
Although I don’t know much about medicine, I know a little bit about it, but after living for more than a hundred years, this is the first time I have heard such a statement."
"If it is deficient, it will nourish the mother, but if it is true, it will weaken the son... This statement seems to be well-founded if you think about it carefully, but where did you go to hear this?" Guang Xie looked at Xia Shang with doubts in his eyes.
Xia Shang responded: "It doesn't matter where this statement comes from. What's important is that if you follow this statement, it will conflict with the book in it. Is what the book says wrong? This matter may seem small, but it involves a wide range of things.
When a child learns medicine, it is rare for him to treat other people's illnesses in the future. If he treats others with bad methods, he may harm other people's names. Therefore, during the journey of medicine, the disciple does not dare to be careless in the slightest. Whenever he has any doubts, he will ask his teacher."
Guangxie remained silent and looked troubled. He really didn't know how to explain it.
The old Taoist looked at it and was amazed. This kid has only studied for a day, but he can stump this old poisonous guy by asking questions?
"Wait a minute!" The old Taoist seemed to realize something and suddenly interrupted in a low voice, "Chunqiu, earlier you mentioned the "Emperor Sutra", "Yin Yang Theory", "Treatise on Febrile Diseases", "The Theory of All Diseases" and other books, can you still
Find out what’s confusing about it, how much have you read in a day? Shouldn’t you read it one by one?”
Xia Shang was stunned and pointed to the books in the corner next to him: "The ones on the left are those that have been read, and the ones on the right are those that have not yet been read. There are still some books in "The Theory of All Diseases" that have not yet been read.
, I really have too many doubts in my mind and need to be confirmed.”
Lao Dao and Guang Xie looked at them together. Although there were only a few on the left side of the wall, there were a lot of them piled up. A rough estimate was that there were thirty or forty volumes.
Have you finished reading the ones on the left?
"Chunqiu, are you kidding? How can you read so many books in one day?" The old Taoist looked unhappy, "Whether you are studying medicine or martial arts, you must be down-to-earth and take it step by step. I am not asking you to learn medical skills.
A quick look at it and a simple explanation.”
Xia Shang naturally understood why the old man was unhappy, but what others didn't know was that Xia Shang had a photographic memory since he was a child, and his memory was beyond ordinary people. Otherwise, he would not have been able to silently recite such masterpieces as "A Dream of Red Mansions".
After the old Taoist finished speaking, Xia Shang responded respectfully: "Master, these books were read word for word by my apprentice. Of course, I didn't just glance at them, otherwise I wouldn't have discovered the problems in them."
"How is it possible?" The old Taoist was doubtful.
"If master doesn't believe it, why not test the apprentice."
Seeing that Xia Shang was full of confidence, the old Taoist took a book and asked questions.
This question doesn't matter. Lao Dao and Guang Xie discovered that Xia Shang could memorize the books he had read. He could answer clearly the number of pages, lines and words. Not only a book, but also those books that Xia Shang read.
This is true for every book I’ve ever read.
The old Taoist took the test for a long time, but finally couldn't say a word.
Guang Xie leaned beside Lao Dao, with his unkempt hair and half-hidden eyes filled with indescribable shock.
"This boy is really a monster!" The old Taoist sighed and put the book aside, unable to say anything wrong with Xia Shang.
I thought that these books would be enough for Xia Shang to read for two or three years. At this speed, this kid can learn all the lessons of two or three years in less than ten days!
Guang Xie was so excited that he was shaking all over. In his opinion, this son was the destined son sent by God to inherit his mantle.
"This boy is much more than that. He has the power of photographic memory and the ability to silence me with just one or two questions. There is no one like him in the world! I... I found that there is nothing to teach him.
That’s it.”
"Hahaha..." the old Taoist laughed heartily, "With this son, the day when the hero will return to glory is just around the corner!"
After that, he walked up to Xia Shang and patted Xia Shang on the shoulder: "Since you have such ability, starting tomorrow, I will ask your fourth master and fifth master to teach you the art of dexterity and concealment."
Xia Shang nodded and had nothing to say.
Since you have to learn new things here, it’s better to let everything come and see what surprises this era can bring to you.
…
The night was dark, the moon was shining brightly, and a few strands of night wind blew into the gloomy little dark room, bringing with it the sound of the two people arguing.
Xia Shang was disturbed by the sound. He woke up and rubbed his eyes, still looking confused.
However, the door was kicked open by a corner, and two figures entered the door almost at the same time. However, the door only allowed one person to pass through, and they bumped into each other and got stuck in the door.
"Stupid carpenter, get out of my way and don't stop me from teaching my disciples."
"Fake monk, I was obviously the one who came in first. You and I step aside. If you want to teach your disciples, I will teach you first."
"You teach? Why should you teach first? Stop it. I am the fourth master and you are the fifth master. According to the order, I should be the first."
"It's not up to you to decide who will teach first. Whoever is more capable will teach first."
"What? You mean I'm not as capable as you?"
“It’s obvious what else needs to be said?”
"Fart! Would I be worse than you, a stinky carpenter?"
"You stinky monk has the same virtues as Liu Cenfeng! You have bad moral character, so what qualifications do you have to teach your disciples? Besides, how can your little tricks compare to my Gui Gu mechanism skills?"
"Drink! It's such a big breath, do you want to try it?"
"Are you more afraid of you than me?"
Xia Shang, who was already confused, became even more confused. Before he could get up, he heard the door banging loudly and being closed again.
Grand Master said yesterday that the Fourth Master and the Fifth Master would come to teach him today, but he did not expect that they would come so early. What was even more unexpected was that the two Masters would appear in such a way.
After listening to the previous conversation, Xia Shang was a little worried. Could it be that there was really a fight outside?
Xia Shang wanted to go out and take a look, but he didn't dare. He always remembered that he was still poisoned.
It's okay to stand at the door and take a look.
Xia Shang quickly got up, and when he reached the door and was about to open the door, the door suddenly opened by itself.
The fourth master and the fifth master entered the room one after another. There was no argument or fight, but both of them had a bit of resentment on their faces.
After the two masters, there was another person, and it turned out to be the second master, Chu Xinru.
Looking at her appearance, I can't help but think that the seventh master is afraid of her, and the fourth master and the fifth master are not much different.
"You two are here to teach Chunqiu well. If you two argue again, please be careful, Auntie. I won't be polite."
The two people who were carried into the house responded angrily.
Chu Xinru was also a little helpless and sighed: "Do you two know why you two should teach together?"
"We all know what the Drunkard Immortal means. We believe that the combination of ingenuity and hidden weapons will have greater power." (To be continued)
