In this month, Yan Shubo read hard day and night, and finally read the relevant content of "Basic Theory of Traditional Chinese Medicine" and "Yellow Emperor's Neijing" twice, and had a general understanding of relevant knowledge.

However, the acupuncture point Fang Song is too difficult to remember, and it doesn't take long to remember it, either forgetting it or confusing it, and it is a headache.

Soon, a month passed, and after the night shift, it happened to be the day agreed with Liao Lao TCM.

After Yan Shubo went back and slept peacefully, he ate some leftovers at noon and rushed to Xiangwei Village.

When I arrived at the house of Liao Lao TCM, the door was closed, and many private cars were parked outside. Looking at this posture, Liao Lao TCM is afraid that he will take a lunch break.

Yan Shubo knocked lightly on the door, and after a while, a handsome melon seed face popped out of the crack in the door, and it was Liao Xingchun who came to open the door when he heard the sound.

After seeing the person clearly, Liao Xingchun pursed his lips: "It's you, have you eaten?"

Yan Shubo even said that he had finished eating.

After Liao Xingchun let out a faint "oh", he led Yan Shubo through the alley, and then walked down the stairs towards the second floor.

Just like Lin Daiyu entered the Grand View Garden, Yan Shubo followed closely behind Liao Xingchun, cautious along the way, for fear of encountering something precious.

Just like this, he walked to the stairwell on the second floor, turned towards the red stainless steel door on the right, and saw that Liao Lao Chinese Medicine was sitting on a high-backed chair in a conversation, and on both sides of it, the four apprentices who had stood in front of each other, all had serious expressions on their faces, as if they were waiting for a battle.

Seeing that Yan Shubo couldn't help but feel a little stunned in his heart, but he quickly adjusted his mood and was relieved.

Liao Lao Chinese Medicine looked at Yan Shubo with strange eyes, and when he saw the panic in the latter's eyes flashing away, he calmed down casually, and couldn't help but nod secretly, he had a little good feeling, that's all, he really didn't want to take any more apprentices.

Therefore, Liao Lao TCM had already made a plan, and continued to embarrass the other party in the next assessment, so that this kid would retreat in the face of difficulties, and he had nothing to say.

As soon as he thought of this, Old Chinese Medicine Liao greeted with a smile: "Doctor Yan, are you here, have you eaten?"

Yan Shubo smiled at him when he heard this, nodded and said that he had eaten.

After Liao Lao TCM let out a faint "oh", he motioned to Yan Shubo to find a chair to sit down at will.

After a while, Liao Xingchun held the tea tray and handed a cup of hot tea to several people.

Yan Shubo hurriedly got up, took the tea and took a sip while thanking him.

Old Chinese Medicine Liao took the tea and took a sip, and said with a smile: "Did you bring my book?"

Yan Shubo smiled embarrassedly when he heard this, hurriedly took out the "Basic Theory of Traditional Chinese Medicine" from his bag, got up and handed it to the other party.

Seeing the situation, Old Chinese Medicine Liao smiled slightly, and directly put the book aside: "Okay, if there is no problem, then I will start asking questions." ”

Yan Shubo naturally had no objection, and immediately nodded.

"Tell us about your understanding of the theory of yin and yang?"

Yan Shubo's eyes lit up when he heard this, and his tense heartstrings suddenly loosened, he made all preparations for this, but he didn't check the information, and immediately said: "Yin and Yang are a pair of categories in ancient Chinese philosophy, which are the generalizations of the opposing sides of certain things or phenomena in the natural world that are interrelated. To summarize it in a sentence in "The Yellow Emperor's Neijing": water and fire, the sign of yin and yang, and the energy of all things. ”

Liao Lao TCM didn't expect Yan Shubo to quote the words in the "Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon", and he couldn't help but show surprise on his face, and asked: "You still know the words in the "Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon", it seems that you have put in a lot of effort in the past month!

Yan Shubo replied without thinking: "Water is cold and fire is hot, which is a symbol of yin and yang, and it is also the manifestation of the specific substances of the two. The change of yin and yang is the original driving force for the generation of all things. ”

Liao Lao TCM nodded secretly when he heard this, and looked Yan Shubo up and down with interest, it seems that this kid's desire to apprentice is quite strong, and he has spent a lot of thought on this, if he is taken under the door and cultivated well, it is not good to say that it is much better than the previous nine apprentices.

It's just that Liao Lao Chinese Medicine is determined not to accept any more apprentices, so he can only say regret, so he can't be limited to the knowledge questions and answers in the books, he wants to strengthen the difficulty, in order to achieve the purpose of persuading the other party, he immediately cleared his throat and said: "Just now you quoted the words of the "Yellow Emperor's Neijing", I want to ask, why do you use water and fire to explain yin and yang, but not ice and fire, we often say 'ice and fire two heavens', don't you think 'ice and fire' is more appropriate?"

Yan Shubo was a little confused when he heard this, there is no ready-made answer to this question in the book, and he didn't think about such a complicated question when he read the book, the reason why the other party asked such a question was because he was afraid to refuse the purpose of his apprenticeship!?

As soon as he thought of this, Yan Shubo felt powerless, and his heart was concerned, but he would never stand still, he frantically started the head machine, racking his brains to think about it.

After waiting for a while, Old Chinese Medicine Doctor Liao seemed to think that Yan Shubo couldn't answer, so he smiled faintly, directly ignored Yan Shubo in the proxy examination, turned his head and glanced at the four apprentices, and said, "Lu Wei, do you know the mystery? If you know, write it on a note with a pen." ”

Hearing Liao Lao Chinese Medicine call her name, the weak woman known as "Lu Wei" couldn't help but be a little confused, she didn't expect the master to test herself, her cheeks were instantly covered with blush, and her hands looked at a loss, obviously unable to answer.

Old Chinese Medicine Liao was not angry, but turned to look at the older middle-aged man with thick eyebrows and rough eyes and said, "Xu Junhai, what do you think?"

Where is the age, hearing the old Chinese medicine doctor Liao call his name, Xu Junhai pondered for a moment and said: "Master, I haven't thought about this problem, but in my opinion, I should follow ....... ”

Xu Junhai said and took out a pen and paper, and then quickly wrote down a line of words and handed it to Liao Lao Chinese Medicine.

Liao Lao Chinese Medicine took a look, and it was written impressively: It is related to the five elements of wood, fire, earth, gold and water, the golden fire in the five elements is yang, and the earth and water are yin.

After Liao Lao TCM finished reading, Xu Junhai asked hopefully, "Master, am I right?"

Old Chinese Medicine Liao shook his head, and turned his head to look at the man with a high nose: "Du Ziyang, what about you?"

The man with a high nose bridge known as "Du Ziyang" said disapprerovingly: "Master, Senior Sister Lu doesn't know, I haven't been in the business for a long time, how do I know these things, and I haven't read the "Yellow Emperor's Neijing". ”

Du Ziyang tilted his head towards Yan Shubo as he spoke, and stroked his lips at the latter: "Didn't he finish reading "The Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon", he must have known." ”

Everyone present didn't expect that the hot potato would be kicked back into Yan Shubo's hands after turning around in Du Ziyang's hands.

Even the old Chinese medicine doctor Liao who raised this question frowned when he saw this, three of the four apprentices were killed at the moment, and only the last silent guy was left, he didn't have much hope for this, and before despairing, he always had to do a dying struggle: "Xiao Jianguo, what about you?"

Xiao Jianguo looked thirty years old, taciturn, with a pair of purple-framed glasses on the bridge of his nose, when he heard Liao Lao Chinese Medicine call his name, he took the pen and paper handed over by Xu Junhai, and after a little thought, he quickly wrote a line on the paper, and then handed it to Liao Lao Chinese Medicine.

After reading the words on the note, Liao Lao TCM couldn't help but be extremely disappointed, and couldn't help but sigh deeply, the whole army was wiped out, and it was difficult to hide the disappointment on his face, even if he had expected this outcome.

After a while, Liao Lao TCM soothed his mood and turned to look at his granddaughter Liao Xingchun: "Little Nizi, what about you?"

Liao Xingchun stuck out his tongue lightly when he heard this, and ran away with a begging expression: "Grandpa, this kind of question that Dr. Xu can't answer, you just ask me." ”

Liao Lao TCM shook his head helplessly and sighed, no one could answer such a simple question, how could he not have thought about it when he read a book!

If this thing gets out, I'm afraid it will make people laugh out of their big teeth.

Old Chinese Medicine Liao was a little depressed, glanced at Yan Shubo expressionlessly, and asked casually: "Have you thought about it?" If you can't answer, then you'll be embarrassed, and you can only have no fate." ”

When Liao Lao TCM asked his apprentices one by one, Yan Shubo's mind was spinning rapidly, trying to explain the current problem with the knowledge he had learned, and at first he thought of a piece with Xu Junhai and explained it with the five elements, but he always felt that something was wrong.
