Chapter 28 If You Don’t Do It, Who Will?
"last year?
Why is that?
Chen Yushu was stunned, and a name suddenly appeared in his mind.
He had been in the pharmacy for several days now, so naturally he knew the names of the four medical apprentices in the pharmacy.
The one who just became a medical apprentice last year was Xu Lihao, also known as Brother Hao, who was admired by many apprentices in Room No. 3.
“Last year, a genius emerged among our pharmacy apprentices.
Xu Lihao.
It takes seven days to get started with the standing meditation, and you will achieve some success in it within a year.
At that time, he had just become an apprentice in decoction of medicine.
Although he ranked last in the year-end assessment, he was still given an exception and accepted as an apprentice by Doctor Liu.
And this year.
You appear again.
More talented than Xu Lihao.
You can get started with standing meditation within three days.
It is estimated that it will take less than a year to cultivate the桩功 to a small level of success.
This is not a good thing for the apprentice who is confident of getting first place this year."
As Xu San spoke, he couldn't help but glance at Chen Yushu with a half-smile.
Chen Yushu fell silent.
"Wang Kui and Lu Yuan are both outstanding among our apprentices in medicine decoction. They have the greatest hope of becoming the first in the year-end assessment.
Now that Steward Zhou has brought you here, it's normal for them to be hostile to you and unwilling to take you with them."
Xu San explained, "But I'm different.
I can't get first place, but there are many benefits to leading people.
"There's someone to share the work with, and you can spend more time studying, practicing martial arts, drinking tea and chatting. Isn't that a lot more relaxing?"
Chen Yushu laughed, but felt a little grateful in his heart.
At least the other party is kind to me.
"Okay, let's get back to the topic.
Next, I will teach you everything I should teach you.
But you can’t miss out on the work you’re supposed to do.”
Then, Xu San's face turned serious, and he walked into the shop from the backyard and began to explain, "Preparing and decocting the medicine is actually very simple.
Generally, the doctor will write a list of medicinal ingredients, and you just need to pick them according to the list and then boil them in the firewood room.
But the prerequisite for all this is to recognize the medicine.
If you can't recognize the medicinal ingredients, you will prescribe the wrong medicine.
If the medicine is wrong, the decoction may become poison, or if the medicine is not suitable for the disease, it is also a very serious matter.
So, at first you have to learn to recognize medicines."
As he spoke, he quickly entered a side room in the medicine shop. Inside, there were some books. He searched briefly and quickly took out two books, handing them to him, saying, "Here are the Hundred Herbal Classics and the Complete Collection of Medicinal Materials. Take some time to familiarize yourself with them."
"Okay, Brother Xu."
Chen Yushu nodded quickly and took the book.
“Don’t look at it now.
As a newcomer, it's always a good idea to be diligent. If you don't do the odd jobs and rough work, who will?
See those medicine stoves? Clean them all.
There is also so much dust on the ground, which needs to be cleaned..."
Xu San waved his hand, then pointed to a pile of medicine furnaces in the side room.
Seeing this, Chen Yushu nodded in response without refusing.
They all came from poor backgrounds, so working was nothing to them.
He entered the Liu family pharmacy as an apprentice, not to enjoy himself.
Being able to learn martial arts is already what I wanted, not to mention the unexpected surprise of learning the inheritance of the Yinren and the White Tiger Visualization Method, a method of cultivating immortality.
Now that he was only doing some cleaning work, he naturally had no objection.
After some cleaning, half an hour passed, and then he was asked to sort the herbs one by one and put them in the medicine grids.
Because he had old medicinal materials for comparison, he did not make any mistakes, and he also got to know some medicinal materials through this.
Just when he had finished his work and wanted to relax, people started coming to the pharmacy to see patients, and then doctors began to diagnose and prescribe medicine...
Although there are seven or eight apprentices making medicines and three or four medical apprentices in the pharmacy, the entire pharmacy is running smoothly and there is almost no idle time.
It was not until near noon, when there were fewer patients, that the apprentices began to rest.
It was only at this time that Chen Yushu had time to lean aside and take out the Baicao Jing and the Complete Collection of Medicinal Materials to read.
Both books record the names and therapeutic effects of medicinal herbs and can be considered popular science books. Some of them even have simple graphic illustrations.
Chen Yushu watched and memorized at the same time.
The afternoon was also spent in busyness.
He was busy almost the entire day.
In this way, it took him three days to gradually become familiar with and adapt to the situation.
For Chen Yushu, the overall atmosphere among the many apprentices in the pharmacy is quite good.
Although Wang Kui and Lu Yuan had some prejudice against him, they did not deliberately target him. Manager Zhou, Doctor Liu and Doctor Jiao were not overly harsh people. Even if he made a mistake, they would only reprimand him slightly and would not be too harsh.
Sometimes, even when apprentices ask questions about medicinal materials and pharmacology, I can provide answers.
As for the owner of the drug store, Su Ming, he only appeared in the store occasionally, and even if he did, he mostly stayed on the second floor and did not have much contact with them.
…
Huh~
Suck~
As night fell, Chen Yushu was in the backyard, slowly practicing the桩功.
Each move is natural and coordinated with the breathing, carrying a unique frequency that affects the Qi and blood in the body, speeding up their flow.
At this time, if someone listened closely, they could even hear a slight, gurgling sound of blood flowing from him.
Sudden.
Chen Yushu's body suddenly tensed up, and the blood vessels on the white and tender skin of his hands were exposed, surging with a unique momentum.
Immediately afterwards, streams of sweat began to flow out.
Soon it covered his entire body, gathering little by little, and gradually condensed into drops of sweat like water droplets.
"Every move and posture of the Medicine King Posture is carefully considered. When combined with breathing techniques, it can exercise almost every corner of the body.
As the thirty-six stances are fully practiced, the heat surges forth, becoming the most intense, and it can also improve the practitioner's physique to the greatest extent possible."
Chen Yushu carefully savored the feeling after practicing, and a hint of satisfaction appeared on his face.
He really enjoyed the feeling of sweating profusely after this kind of training.
Medicine King Posture +1
Then he looked at the attribute panel.
Yaowang Zhuang Gong: Getting Started (56/100)
“It’s just a pity.
Now, I no longer have the nourishing effect of Yangyuan Soup, and the speed of practicing Zhuang Gong has also slowed down.
Relying solely on the energy provided by three meals a day to cultivate, progress is too slow."
Chen Yushu shook his head helplessly.
The practice of standing meditation should be done step by step. If you want to maximize the efficiency of standing meditation, you have to improve your level of standing meditation.
For example, when practicing the same standing meditation, at the beginning, the transformed 'heat' is only one strand, then when you are proficient, it is two strands, at a small level of success it is four strands, at a great level it is eight strands, and at the perfect level, it is sixteen strands...
The multiples increase, and the 'thermal' quality will also gradually improve.
The 'heat' gained from cultivation at the time of perfection can be equivalent to several or even dozens of heats gained at the beginning.
The results of natural cultivation will also be completely different.
