Seeing his uncle's impatient look, Ji Zhonglin hurriedly said with a smile: "Uncle, Xiaorou is like your own daughter, so you can teach her as you please."

Tang Xiaorou had never seen her master like this before, so she looked at him with surprise, but at the same time she was a little moved. In order to let her learn medicine, her master was willing to sacrifice his dignity and say nice things to her.

Ji Qingsong glanced at Ji Zhonglin and said, "If she was really your daughter, I would definitely teach her, but the problem is that she is not, so you don't need to say anything more."

The smile on Ji Zhonglin's face was a little hard to hold, but he still insisted: "Uncle, even if Xiaorou is not your biological daughter, she is closer to you than your biological daughter. Please teach her."

Ji Qingsong said in a tough tone: "I can't teach you, so don't waste your breath on it."

Tang Xiaorou felt uncomfortable listening to the conversation between the two. She turned to look at Ji Zhonglin and said, "Master, let's go back first."

However, Ji Zhonglin simply shook his head and said, "Xiao Rou, the backyard is the guest room. Go and clean it up. We will live here for the time being."

Hearing this, Tang Xiaorou was slightly stunned, but she didn't say much, just nodded and said: "Okay, I'll go and clean it up now."

After Tang Xiaorou went to the backyard, Ji Qingsong frowned and looked at Ji Zhonglin, asking, "What on earth are you doing? You know that Ji's Eighteen Needles cannot be worn outside, so why did you bring outsiders here? Moreover, not everyone can learn this acupuncture method, like you can't learn it."

Ji Zhonglin nodded seriously and said, "Yes, I haven't been able to learn it. Only my late grandfather and uncle know how to do it. If you don't find someone to learn it from, the Ji family's Eighteen Needles will be lost after you, uncle, are gone. Would you rather see the acupuncture technique lost than teach others how to do it?"

Seeing that his uncle didn't say anything, Ji Zhonglin continued, "After the college entrance examination was resumed, medical schools will resume classes. If all the teachers are hiding things, then students won't be able to learn the real medical skills to save lives. So, uncle...are you really not my apprentice?"

After hearing this, Ji Qingsong was silent for a long time.

He took a deep look at his nephew and said slowly, "Even if we want to teach her, we have to see if she has the talent."

Ji Zhonglin's eyes lit up when he heard this, "Xiao Rou is very talented, maybe she can surpass Master 놖 and learn Ji's Eighteen Needles."

Ji Qingsong didn't give in completely. "Let's wait a few days and let her see her character and medical skills."

"good."

Even though his uncle did not fully agree, Ji Zhonglin still saw hope. He went to the backyard with a smile and told his little apprentice the good news.

Tang Xiaorou didn't know how the master convinced Ji Qingsong. Thinking of the master's humble attitude before, she couldn't help but said, "Master, it doesn't matter if you don't learn. Don't be wronged because of you."

Ji Zhonglin glared at Tang Xiaorou and said, "What are you talking about? We have come all the way here, you must try to learn it, so that your hard work will not be in vain. What's more, your uncle has already promised that he will teach you Ji's Eighteen Needles in a few days."

At the end, 놛 patted Tang Xiaorou's shoulder hopefully and said, "놖You didn't learn it at the beginning, you must work harder and learn this set of needlework."

Tang Xiaorou was very curious. What kind of needle technique was it? Even the master hadn’t learned it. Could she really learn it?

Seeing Tang Xiaorou's self-doubt, Ji Zhonglin glared at her and said, "You have to believe in yourself. You can do it."

"But Master, you haven't learned it yet, and I'm not sure if you can learn it."

Ji Zhonglin sighed when he heard this and said, "I came here this time just to let you try. If you can learn it, that's the best. If you can't, then there's nothing I can do."

After the master and the disciple talked for a while, Ji Qingsong called them to cook.

In the next few days, Tang Xiaorou was very busy, either cooking or doing housework. Sometimes she had to help collect herbs in the mountains, and then help prepare the herbs after coming back. In short, she was very busy.

Ji Qingsong secretly observed her, and seeing that Tang Xiaorou had no complaints and handled the herbs very well, he nodded. Ji Zhonglin knew that his uncle was testing his apprentice, so he didn't say much. However, he waited for four days but his uncle didn't give in, so he became a little anxious.

"Uncle, how is your inspection going? If you continue like this, my little apprentice will break his back from exhaustion."

Hearing this, Ji Qingsong rolled his eyes.

"She's doing a good job, why do you have to talk so much."

However, Dong Zhong had finally made up his mind. After Tang Xiaorou finished all her work, he called her over and said, "Starting tomorrow, Dong will teach you Ji's Eighteen Needles. Remember to go to the pharmacy in the front yard at eight o'clock."

Tang Xiaorou had already prepared for a long battle, but she didn't expect Ji Qingsong to give in so quickly. She quickly agreed and said, "Okay uncle, I will definitely go to the pharmacy on time tomorrow."

Ji Zhonglin was very happy when he knew about this.

"Xiao Rou, I'll go with you tomorrow, remember to study hard." But at the end, he was afraid that the little apprentice would be too stressed, "Actually, it doesn't matter if you can't learn it. I remember that I didn't learn it back then."

Tang Xiaorou laughed when she heard this and said, "Master, please don't worry. I will definitely study hard. Even if I can't learn it, I won't be discouraged."

On the next day, Tang Xiaorou came to the front yard pharmacy early, and Ji Zhonglin followed her. As a result, when they arrived, Ji Qingsong was already waiting there.

"Uncle, didn't we agree on eight o'clock? Why are you here so early?"

Ji Qingsong glared at Ji Zhonglin and said, "I woke up and came straight here. Okay, come in."

After the three of them entered the pharmacy, Ji Qingsong took out a wooden man and said, "Today, follow me to familiarize yourself with all the acupuncture points on the human body."

In fact, Tang Xiaorou had already been familiar with the acupuncture points of the human body, but the master knew this but said nothing. It can be seen that what Ji Qingsong was going to teach today was definitely different from what she knew.

As expected...

What was said today was refreshing to Tang Xiaorou, and her eyes were full of interest.

By the end of the morning, she still felt a little reluctant to leave.

"Okay, that's all for today. You can't chew too much. Just remember everything I just taught you."

Hearing this, Tang Xiaorou nodded and said, "Okay, I understand."

In the following days, Tang Xiaorou went to the pharmacy on time every day to study with Ji Qingsong, and she wrote down every word the other party said.

Ji Qingsong saw it all and secretly praised him. This disciple of his nephew was indeed hardworking and diligent, and his comprehension was extraordinary.

That day, Ji Qingsong took out a real silver needle and said to Tang Xiaorou, "Starting today, you will practice your needlework on this wooden man."

Tang Xiaorou nodded, with a rare hint of nervousness in her heart. These days of study made her realize that Ji's Eighteen Needles was different from ordinary acupuncture methods, and she didn't know if she could learn it.

But soon, Tang Xiaorou stopped thinking about anything else. She stared intently at the wooden man in front of her and inserted needles into his acupuncture points one by one.

Ji Qingsong carefully observed Tang Xiaorou's technique from the side, and saw that she inserted the needle steadily and accurately, with the depth of the needle not off by a centimeter. He nodded slightly and finally believed what his nephew said. This little disciple was indeed extremely talented.

Ji Zhonglin was watching from the side, a little more nervous than Tang Xiaorou. After his apprentice finished a round of needle practice, he quickly looked at Ji Qingsong and asked, "Uncle, how is Xiaorou doing?"

Ji Qingsong glanced at his nephew and said, "She has learned better than you, but the most important thing about Ji's Eighteen Needles is the use of Qi. When she can really coordinate Qi and acupuncture, then she will have truly learned it."
