Hua Zheng and himself are geniuses.
But it took him a whole day to memorize this book back then!
And yet, her grandfather praised her as a genius. How much time has this girl spent?
Three hours?
How is that possible!
Even that genius I blindly took in before, just like me, spent a whole day memorizing it!
So, did he encounter a monstrous genius?
Hua Zhenghe looked at the little girl in front of him excitedly and asked, "Really?"
"Of course, why would I lie to you about this?"
Liu Shile almost rolled her eyes. She wasn't stupid; she would tell a lie that was immediately obvious.
"Alright, alright, then tell me, what's on page 35?"
Although Hua Zhenghe was excited and willing to believe her, he did not forget to test her.
Since it's a test, the procedures must be followed, and he must personally confirm that this matter is true before it can proceed!
Liu Shile recited it without hesitation, reciting the entire page in one go.
Undeterred, Hua Zheng randomly selected a few more pages, which Liu Shile memorized word for word.
"Hahaha, good, good, good, good!"
At that moment, Hua Zhenghe laughed heartily.
At first, she laughed like a child, but as she laughed, tears started flowing down her face.
Then he laughed so hard he couldn't stand up straight, and large tears fell from his eyes.
Looking at Elder Hua like this, Liu Shile was dumbfounded, completely unaware of what was wrong with him.
Little did she know that Hua Zhenghe was releasing the sorrow he had been suppressing all along.
"Mr. Hua, are you alright?" She reached out to help Mr. Hua up with a hint of worry, and handed him a handkerchief.
Logically speaking, this person is a worldly person and shouldn't be frightened by himself.
But how did he suddenly become like this?
Honestly, she only wanted to shock the old man, she never intended to drive him crazy!
"Cough cough cough, I'm fine, I just remembered some things, you don't need to worry."
Following her pull, Old Hua stood up.
Liu Shile noticed that Hua Lao's back, which used to be somewhat hunched, seemed to have straightened up a bit.
Hua Zhenghe accepted the clean white handkerchief without ceremony and wiped his face.
Then, looking at Liu Shile seriously, he asked her, "Liu Shile, right? Would you like to become my disciple?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Shile also looked at Elder Hua seriously.
She found the complexity in his eyes unfathomable, but one thing she was certain of was that he was serious and had no ulterior motives or malice.
She frowned slightly; she hadn't yet decided what path she wanted to take in the future.
After all, her understanding of this era was limited to the records left by her grandfather's old antiques and the memories of a little girl who had never left the county town.
Therefore, she lacks understanding of many common-sense aspects of this era.
Of course, she was originally more interested in traditional Chinese medicine.
Especially the amazing operation last time and the understanding of medicinal herbs and their medicinal properties this time.
She could buy some medicinal herb seeds at the farm, such as ginseng, which she had planted in large quantities and was quite old.
The plants in the fields that can be harvested with a single click will continue to grow like the other plants in the fields, even if they are not harvested.
Things like ginseng, which require years to grow, grow extremely fast in those kinds of soil.
As long as they are not harvested, they will continue to grow year after year.
Therefore, the age of the ginseng is not a big deal for Liu Shile.
However, all she knew was that ginseng was a medicinal herb, and that older ginseng was highly sought after in the apocalypse.
But she didn't know what their functions were.
But the book in her hand explained their situation in detail.
Therefore, she is not actually averse to learning this knowledge.
However, the thought of becoming an apprentice to this indigenous person made her feel a little awkward.
Liu Shile couldn't stand the old man's gaze.
He said earnestly, "Mr. Hua, may I consider it?"
"What are you looking to consider? If you have any questions, I'll try my best to answer them."
Although this young woman may not yet have the heart of a healer, Old Hua trusted his eyes.
Uh, cough, can I say this is a delaying tactic?
Seeing the seriousness in Hua Lao's eyes, Liu Shi was almost speechless with emotion.
After a moment's pause, Liu Shile said, "First, I'm not from Yizhou. I need to go home and go to school."
Secondly, my parents are not in good health, so I need to take care of them.
These are all things that require effort, so I need to think about whether I can find the time to learn them.
Sigh, for the moment, these were all the excuses she could think of.
By this time, Hua Zhenghe had already returned to normal and could easily tell that the little girl was making excuses.
He had been thinking about these questions for the past few days.
So he smiled slightly and said, "With your memory, going to school shouldn't take much effort, right?"
As for taking care of family, I heard from your second brother that your eldest sister is very capable.
So where would someone with poor health like you be needed to take care of others?
Of course, he wouldn't say that. Instead, he pulled out his trump card: "Do you still want to learn health preservation techniques?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Shile's eyes widened. This old geezer is really wicked!
They actually used this to lure her into becoming their disciple?!
Hmph~
"Fine, I won't learn it then." Liu Shile didn't want to be forced to do something she didn't want to do.
This old man must have come again because he successfully convinced himself last time.
She wouldn't have his way, since she had a prescription for conditioning her body anyway.
She can go home and recuperate slowly; it's only a matter of time before she recovers. So, she really doesn't need to learn health preservation techniques.
Hua and Zheng were clearly surprised by her decisive refusal and thought she had agreed.
Therefore, he nodded and said with satisfaction, "That's right, if you become my disciple, I will pass on all my skills to you..."
He stopped there, staring wide-eyed at Liu Shile, "Girl, what did you just say?"
She's not going to study anymore?!
If you're not going to study, what are you doing here today? Is it fun?
Liu Shile pouted, "If I have to become your apprentice to learn health preservation skills, then I won't learn them."
Hua Zhenghe was so angry at her attitude and her name that he almost vomited blood!
Is their lineage of health preservation techniques something anyone can learn?
Does Hua Zhenghe's discipleship mean that anyone can just become his disciple?
He's even offered to take her on as his apprentice, but she's refused outright?
In an instant, Hua Zhenghe realized that he seemed to have made a mistake.
Think about the boy that this little girl was protecting just now.
He immediately sighed dejectedly, as if all his energy had been drained away in an instant.
The straight back that had been standing up instantly bent over, making it look incredibly pitiful.
