"Jianguo, what should we do next?" Qin Zhan asked.
"You don't have to do anything. You can go back to sleep. When I get up tomorrow, I will prepare the medicine myself." Xu Jianguo said.
"Okay, I was planning to learn a few tricks from you, so that next time we encounter a case like this, we'll have an additional treatment option."
"Mr. Qin, please don't say that. I can't bear it!"
"Hmph, what's so hard to bear? We old guys are not pedantic. As the saying goes, the master is the one who is more accomplished. Once you learn a skill, it becomes your own. Reputation is worthless in the face of ability."
"Old man Qin is right. To be honest, although we are respected as the masters of traditional Chinese medicine, we have only learned a little more than others. If we compare ourselves with the famous doctors in ancient times, we probably don't even have the qualifications to be someone's apprentice. The status we have today is nothing more than being the tallest among the short ones." Zhao Hongtu said.
"Yes, our Longxia nation has a history of 5,000 years, and there are a vast number of medical books and prescriptions related to medicine. However, only a few of them have been passed down to this day. We are truly ashamed of our ancestors!"
"Damn it! Let's not even talk about all the medical books and prescriptions lost to history due to the changing dynasties. Just look at the recent past. How many good things have the Magnesium Kingdom, the Parrot Kingdom, the Sulian Kingdom, and the small Ben Kingdom taken from us? When our country becomes stronger, we must get them back from them. The old patriarch's things must not be left in the hands of others."
Although Lu Chuan studied Western medicine, he also felt sorry for the cultural treasures of his country that were looted by the invaders. Therefore, he very much agreed with what Zhao Hongtu said. If there was an opportunity in the future, he would definitely take all these things back.
Seeing the three old men filled with righteous indignation, Xu Jianguo's mind became active again.
"It seems that the matter of going to the Parrot Museum has to be put on the agenda as soon as possible! And in addition to the Parrot Kingdom, we have to visit other countries that invaded us in the past. In addition, we have to get those guys overseas to take action. Not only should we look for ancient medical books and prescriptions from the Longxia Kingdom, but we should also collect other ancient books as much as possible. For example, the "Yongle Encyclopedia" in our country during the Ming Dynasty, which is similar to an encyclopedia. If we can find a way to find it all, it will definitely be regarded as a national treasure." Xu Jianguo thought to himself.
After secretly planning in his mind, Xu Jianguo persuaded the three old men to go back, and he himself was taken to the dormitory by Lu Chuan's secretary. The four of them agreed to meet in the cafeteria early tomorrow morning.
The dormitory conditions of the Health Bureau are much better than those of the 501 Hospital, but Xu Jianguo does not have too high requirements for accommodation conditions, as long as it is clean and tidy.
After locking the door, Xu Jianguo placed the medicinal materials he had taken from the traditional Chinese medicine room on the table, and then slipped directly into the space.
After returning to the space, he first went to see the two little caracals. After seeing that they had adapted to life in the space, he returned to the courtyard.
Just when passing by the space pawnshop and about to enter the supermarket, Xu Jianguo suddenly seemed to think of something and turned around and came to the door of the pawnshop.
Looking at the new items of storage information that appeared on the notice board at the door, Xu Jianguo did not find anything of interest. After thinking about it, he called up the system in his mind.
"system!"
[Ding, host, please speak! ]
"If I want to collect some ancient books that were lost in my own time and space, can I use the replacement function of the space pawn shop to achieve this?"
[Ding, theoretically it is possible, but it is not recommended for the host to do so! ]
"Why?"
[Ding, are you out of your mind? ]
"...You explained your meaning clearly to me, why are you scolding me?"
[Ding, the space library contains all the physical books that have ever appeared in the host's plane, and it is still being continuously expanded and improved. If the host needs it, he can go to the library to borrow it. Are you crazy? ]
Xu Jianguo slapped his forehead and said, "Damn, I actually forgot about this..."
Then, with an awkward expression, he said in his mind, "Um, the system... Well, I don't know what to say anymore. Anyway, you're right! It's getting late, go to bed early!"
【Ding, good night! 】
After the system was completely silent, Xu Jianguo breathed a sigh of relief, patted his head helplessly, left the space pawnshop, and walked back to the courtyard.
He did not immediately go to the study to verify what the system said, but went straight back to the bedroom, changed his clothes, and went to the bathroom to wash up.
After taking a hot shower, Xu Jianguo wiped his head and walked towards the study.
After sitting on the chair, he threw the bath towel aside, then opened the drawer, took out a pen and paper, and began to write on the paper.
Xu Jianguo did not borrow books immediately, but planned to sort out the titles of ancient books of great significance that he knew of in the history of Longxia Kingdom. To put it bluntly, he planned to make a list of books first, and then search and borrow books based on the list.
"Yongle Encyclopedia", "Classic of Mountains and Seas", "Lu Ban's Book", "Six Strategies", "Green Bag Classic", "Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic", "Yellow Emperor's External Classic", "Treatise on Febrile Diseases", "Shennong's Herbal Classic", "Difficult Classic", "Pulse Classic", "Acupuncture and Moxibustion Classic", "Treatise on the Causes and Symptoms of Various Diseases", "Qianjin Yaofang" and "Qianjin Yifang".
Among the ancient books written by Xu Jianguo, some have only fragments left today, and some have not even left any fragments.
But after he took the paper in his hand and looked at it, he sighed helplessly and threw it aside.
"With five thousand years of history, what I know is just a drop in the ocean, not even a drop in the ocean. It is impossible for me to find all the lost ancient books by myself. It seems that I have to ask an expert for help." Xu Jianguo muttered softly, stood up and made himself a cup of tea.
After drinking a sip of tea, he lit a cigarette and smoked it slowly. He decided to wait for an opportunity tomorrow and ask Qin Zhan and Zhao Hongtu for advice first. If that didn't work, he planned to ask Grandpa Zhou to see if he could find a capable person for him in the National Library.
