Chapter 505: Don't listen, don't listen, the turtle chants

Lu Bannong's voice could be heard from all four sides of the Chinese Medicine Clinic:

"Please stop what you are doing. Any abnormal movement will be considered a foul and you will forfeit your rights."

After he said this, no one dared to continue.

Those young Chinese medicine practitioners who have not learned much about Chinese medicine preparation and mainly focus on acupuncture all have bitter faces. The difficulty of the primary election and the final election is too different.

Traditional Chinese medicine covers so much that it cannot be learned overnight.

"Seniors, let's go and see the children's results so that they can feel at ease sooner." Lu Bangnong said respectfully to the four elderly Chinese medicine practitioners sitting on the stage.

These are the leaders of the TCM community and the supervisors of the TCM Association. But generally, they will not be mobilized unless there is a major event.

The four old Chinese doctors all looked very serious.

They walked down the steps and slowly entered the venue. Starting from the first person in the first row, they looked very carefully and fairly.

There are five judges in total, and as long as three of them give a top grade answer, the answer will pass. There are 20 top grade spots in this round.

The TV station's high-definition camera followed them wherever they went, and the images and sounds were transmitted to the big screen in the venue.

So that all spectators can see clearly.

Soon it was Lu Yingxue's turn.

Lu Yingxue’s preparation of traditional Chinese medicine is extremely good, and the medicinal properties of the Atractylodes lancea prepared from bran are well preserved.

The old Chinese doctors exchanged a few words about the Atractylodes macrocephala and nodded in unison, with expressions of satisfaction and approval on their faces.

"You can tell at a glance that it took a lot of hard work."

“The temperature and time of the preparation are just right.”

"Very good! President Lu has taught me well. I am worthy of being your daughter. I have improved a lot compared to ten years ago. I am really better than my teacher. If the highest grade was not the best, I would give you the best grade."

Lu Yingxue is very talented in traditional Chinese medicine.

She is indeed hardworking.

"Thank you for the compliments, old gentlemen. Yingxue still has a lot to learn compared to you."

Lu Yingxue is generous and unrestrained, like the light snow on the mountains without being stained by dust, and has her own style.

The high-definition camera was focused on Lu Yingxue's flawless face, projecting her grace and demeanor onto the big screen, which surprised many people.

This is the pride of the people in the imperial capital.

At this time, Lu Bannong gave it a medium rating.

He said calmly, "There is still room for improvement and we need to work harder."

"Yes, father."

Lu Yingxue lowered her head to accept the instruction.

This scene of a strict father and a filial daughter was magnified by the camera, causing gasps of surprise in the venue!

"Dr. Lu is really strict. Miss Lu has been praised by her predecessors as being worthy of a top grade, but he only gave her a middle grade."

"Dr. Lu is trying to avoid suspicion! He had previously declined to be a judge at the needle testing conference. It was only last night when Mr. Wu was frightened by the car accident that he was forced to be a judge."

"Ms. Lu is really wronged! We all know her strength and we are very impressed by her! Doctor Lu must be afraid that someone will gossip about her after she wins the championship, so he did this!"

Many people feel sorry for Lu Yingxue, and admire Lu Bannong for distinguishing between public and private affairs and being strict with himself.

The good reputation of the father and daughter has become a new topic of conversation.

"Pooh!"

After hearing these comments, Sun Weimeng spat out the melon seed shells in his mouth.

"What brand of sack is this? It can hold so much! Lu Yingxue is sure to enter the next round, so Lu Bannong pretended to give her a medium-quality one. It doesn't affect the final result at all. Even I can see through this trick, how can they be blind!"

He looked indignant: "A pair of white lotus father and daughter! They need to have both face and substance. Greedy people will not have a good end!"

Old Chen patted his shoulder gently and consoled him: "Young Master Sun, not everyone has such a keen eye as you. Besides, the Lu family has always had a good reputation in the imperial capital, and they are not as objective as we are."

"Blind man! I wish I could expose the true colors of the hypocritical father and daughter right now."

Sun Weimeng is not confused about major issues. He also accidentally learned many secrets, and he and Qiao Xi are naturally in cahoots.

"I'm so pissed off!"

Sun Weimeng said angrily.

Old Chen gently reminded, "Young Master Sun, don't be angry. Look, it's almost our Young Madam's turn!"

Sun Weimeng quickly raised his head to look at the big screen.

After the old men gave Xiang Mingzhu a rating of "barely good", they walked up to Qiao Xi, picked up her honey-roasted licorice and pointed at her.

"The quality of the honey roast is very good, and the honey selected is also medium-quality. It can be seen that the foundation is very solid, and it is even better than Yingxue."

"The medicinal properties are excellent. Cheng Han has accepted a good apprentice. What are you good at in Chinese medicine preparation?"

Qiao Xi smiled brightly on her pretty face: "Master has taught me some of this."

This means that you have mastered them all.

"He is young and full of energy, willing to learn and endure hardships. If there is a chance, invite your master to have a drink with us old guys, and tell him to stop hiding from his old friends. What happened in the past is in the past, and no one is pursuing it anymore..."

Qiao Xi nodded: "Okay, I will definitely pass it on."

But she didn't know what happened back then.

“Top quality.”

"It is indeed top-grade. The processing and preservation of medicinal properties are even more meticulous than Yingxue's."

Qiao Xi glanced at the smiling Lu Bannong with her almond-shaped eyes, "Dr. Lu, do you think there is anything else I need to improve?"

Lu Bannong smiled with his eyes narrowed, and the beard around his lips trembled twice: "You did a good job. I heard about the girl's deeds in Haicheng. She was very brave with the needle. We doctors still have to be humble and cautious, and we can't joke with the patients' bodies. Don't be like your master... Forget it, we have agreed not to mention the past, so we won't say more."

His words seemed to have a deeper meaning.

"Thank you for the teachings of Dr. Lu. I will keep them in mind."

Qiao Xi slowly raised her eyes and looked at Lu Bangnong with a cold smile in her eyes.

They all mentioned what happened back then.

So what happened back then?

Qiao Xi never knew about the past, and even Cheng Han rarely mentioned it. Why did he leave the imperial capital, why did he retire, and the conflict between him and Lu Bannong.

It seems that only these old people know the inside story, and none of them want to speak out.

When they moved to the next operating table, Xiang Mingzhu, who was standing nearby, rolled his eyes.

She said unhappily, "Qiao Xi, this is only the first round and the rankings are not counted. The next round will be difficult. I will definitely not let you win."

Qiao Xi's face was gorgeous, and her almond-shaped eyes were as clear as if they had been washed by water: "You let me? For a barely upper-class person like you, don't even mention the word let me. It sounds like a joke."

"you……"

Qiao Xi covered her ears with her hands, looking disgusted.

I don't want to listen, it's just a turtle chanting sutras.

Xiang Mingzhu was so angry that she almost smashed the operating table in front of her.

…

One hour later, all the selections were completed.

Among the 20 newly announced places were many names that Qiao Xi was familiar with, and Shen Xuanzhi also successfully entered the next round.

"Three days later, the second round of the needle test will be held! Latecomers will be deemed to have waived their rights, so please remember the time! Now please leave the venue in an orderly manner, contestants and spectators!" Lu Bangnong announced the departure with the microphone, and the audience seats surged.

Qiao Xi also curled the corners of her mouth, and walked briskly towards the inner passage and went directly to the parking lot to meet up with Huo Xingzhou.

She had just reached the parking lot.

Before one wave subsides, another wave rises!
