Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Book of Medicine
"Okay, let's talk about it after noon. The nightingale smiled and took some fresh white fungus to the kitchen, and asked them to make two kinds of food.
Seeing that it was still early, Su Ling took Zhou Ting to Luqi Garden to greet the old lady Zeng. When she went, she saw that the old lady Zeng was watching the medical skills.
"Grandpa still likes to read medical books!" Su Ling said with a smile. Medical art is a professional book, unlike other books. Many people still prefer to read idle books when they are free, but they don't like to read professional books very much.
After all, professional books are generally difficult to read and can be boring. It's like a medical book, Su Ling has never read it.
She didn't study medicine either, so she always felt the need to go to see it. And if you don't study well, if you just read a book, you may not be able to learn anything. She didn't think that medical skills could be self-taught, and after reading medical books, the most she could do was to know the medicinal properties of some medicinal materials.
"Yes! When I was young, I learned medical skills for a few years with the old man next door, but I didn't learn it well. The old man smiled and put down the book. "That is, I can see some simple diseases, but I haven't seen many people. ”
I haven't seen much of a doctor, which Su Ling can understand. I'm afraid that few people know that this old lady is actually a doctor of medicine! She also heard some things about this old man from Nightingale, who was a jinshi when he was very young, and later became an official in the court.
After decades of ups and downs in the sea, Zhishi has been busy with the affairs of the court before Zhishi! That is, Zhishi can enjoy life quietly. Where does such a person have time to treat people!
The main thing is that many people have only seen his talent, and have not carefully studied what else he will do.
"I didn't expect Grandpa Tai to know how to heal!" Su Ling smiled.
"There are many people who don't know! I have rarely seen people, and naturally there are very few people who know. It's just the codex left by the master, and I haven't had time to look at it carefully. Now it's idle anyway, so it's turned out again. ”
Su Ling was a little curious, the codex left by ordinary people is a summary of the knowledge accumulated over the years, and maybe some of his own experience. Generally, such a person is the essence of a person's life.
She took it over and looked at it briefly, and suddenly turned over the formulas of some wonderful medicines, but looked at them carefully. The medicinal effects are really peculiar, such as drugs and aphrodisiacs, Su Ling is a little apprehensive.
Looking at these things, it always makes people feel that what Na Langzhong is learning is not orthodox medical skills, otherwise how can there be these out-of-the-way things in the codex, and I always feel that those who really learn to cure diseases and save people don't seem to study these things very deeply.
However, in many cases, medicinal materials also have two sides, which can save people and naturally hurt people. Even if you study these things, there is nothing to look down on. It's just that he is a little more curious about the old man.
"I guess that old man is a wonderful man! This codex looks really interesting. Su Ling casually flipped through a few pages.
"Yes, he is a very interesting person, not a very good person, but he has a sense of both good and evil. Old lady Zeng smiled.
"I feel it when I look at this codex, but it's nothing to study, as long as it's not intent on harming others. "Some doctors also carry some drugs and poisons on them, even if they don't want to hurt people, if they encounter danger, they can protect themselves.
"That's right. Many times, it is the people's hearts that are good or bad. ”
"Hmm. Su Ling nodded.
"If you like it, you can also take it and see it, the things recorded in it are indeed very strange. You're a girl alone, so it's good to learn some self-defense. ”
"Then thank you grandpa. Su Ling really put away the codex. In fact, what Grandpa Tai said is also right, she is a girl alone, although there is still Xiaoting by her side, but Xiaoting still needs her protection! If there is really any danger, she really doesn't even have the ability to protect herself.
It's nice to learn something about self-defense. You can't have the heart to harm others, and you can't have the heart to defend people. Although it is a peaceful and prosperous era, it does not mean that there is really no danger.
Su Ling hadn't brought Zhou Ting to Luqiyuan before, but this was the first time the old lady Zeng saw Zhou Ting, so he asked Zhou Ting about it, and Su Ling said it simply.
"It's pitiful at a young age, and it's a blessing for her to meet you. Old lady Zeng took a jade pendant and handed it to Zhou Ting. "Meet the gift, take it!"
Zhou Ting didn't dare to accept it directly, but looked at Su Ling. "Grandpa, this is too precious. "Although Su Ling doesn't know much about jade, looking at the water color is so good, it makes people feel comfortable when they look at it, and they know that it is a very good jade.
And with the identity of Grandpa, the jade pendant that can be worn on the body will not be an ordinary thing. If you accept ordinary things, you will accept them, but the jade pendant that follows from your body is really not easy to accept. I'm afraid it has a special meaning!
A gentleman doesn't take away people's favor, if it is something that has a special meaning to others, where can he accept it casually.
"It's okay, it's just an ordinary thing, nothing special, let the child keep it! ”
Seeing that grandpa said this, Su Ling motioned for Zhou Ting to accept the jade pendant.
Zhou Ting liked it very much, and rubbed it for a while before putting it in her purse. After sitting for a while, Su Ling also stood up and took Zhou Ting to say goodbye, and took the medical codex with him when he left.
Back at Lanyue Pavilion, it was almost noon, and Nightingale ordered the small kitchen to make a sumptuous lunch. The nightingale is a big girl, and her status in Lanyue Pavilion is not low, and it is okay to ask for more delicious food in the kitchen, and the people in the kitchen will not refuse.
And Nightingale's popularity is already very good, and he gets along very well with everyone in Lanyue Pavilion.
When it was about to be lunch, Nightingale asked people to go to the academy to pick up Zhou Chen. Naturally, the students are allowed to rest at noon, let the students eat, and then have time to take a nap, so the lunch break is not short.
If you are close to home, you can go home for lunch.
It didn't take long for Zhou Chen to be picked up, and when he saw Su Ling and Zhou Ting, Zhou Chen was very surprised.
"Sister Xin, Xiaoting, you're here!" Zhou Chen came over and hugged Zhou Ting.
"Come to Fucheng and see you too. Su Ling pulled Zhou Chen to sit down. The nightingale had already gone to arrange for someone to set up lunch, leaving Zhou Chen to have lunch here.
"Brother, I miss you so much. Zhou Ting said with a smile.
"I miss you and Sister Xin too!" Zhou Chen smiled, looking very happy.
