1209, anxiety

- Liao Shi knows his temper, if he lets other people follow him, I'm afraid he doesn't need to take the initiative to catch up, and others will naturally have to "lose" after a few days. But Yan Xingzhi's kid was sincere in wanting to learn medicine from him, and after being followed by him for a few years, Liao Shi almost let go of his mind.

It's just that...... This trip, it's not easy to do errands!

Liao Shi twisted his eyebrows and pondered for a moment, and suddenly asked again: "Didn't you go home to visit your mother?" You just left like this, and even the rules of saying goodbye were 'saved'? ”

Yan Xingzhi couldn't help but tremble when he heard this. For him, there are many relatives and friends in his life, and Liao Shi's words can be regarded as hitting his vulnerability. Because of this, he didn't reply for a long time.

But gradually, he figured out another truth. Of course, the concerns of relatives need to be cherished, but when a person grows up, he needs to have his own ideals in life. Although the national dynasty takes benevolence, filial piety, and propriety as the spiritual theme, which is the national style, and also cultivates the spirit of the people's customs, if a person only stops in one place because of excessive emphasis on filial piety, does not think about his own ideals and career, and has no personal meaning, then he still bears filial piety?

From my father to my grandfather, all my life has been working hard to think about how to overcome the strange diseases that have been passed down from generation to generation in the family. This disease took the life of his brother and made his mother mourn for half his life, and now that the Yan family has passed on to his own generation, don't he need to do something? Spend time by her mother's side every day and make her happy, so that she can really be happy all the time?

Only by overcoming this disease can the shadow over the Yan family's head be completely removed! That's what my grandfather thought, and so did my father. And the mother ...... She'll be able to understand me, too!

My grandfather traveled all his life on the medical path, and although he still failed to find a cure for this strange disease, he accumulated a wealth of medical knowledge for the Yan family. However, it is precisely because of these medical foundations that Yan Xingzhi, who has already read it all, thinks about a question: perhaps the medical path that the Yan family is exploring has reached a bottleneck area, and if they go up on this road and find a breakthrough, the progress may become extremely slow.

Forcibly resisting the present, perhaps a workaround, is also the way out.

Grandfather once said. Liao Shi is the most treacherous and strongest among the pharmacists. Yan Xingzhi has always been puzzled by this. Medicine and medicine seem to be the same family, what can be the difference here? In the years when Dafengling followed Liao Shi at close range, Yan Xingzhi said to his grandfather Yan Guang. I seem to be able to feel a little bit of it. Although he still hasn't fully understood the relationship between Liao Shi's medicine and his grandfather's medicine. The clearest difference. But because of what he had seen and understood in those years, he was determined to study under the name of Liao Shi!

In fact, the most obvious difference between medicine and medicine is the way. It's in the field of innovation. For example, in the face of Lin Shan's burns, doctors know that they are difficult to treat, but I am afraid that only Liao Shi will think of such a thing as snow silkworm crystal. Only a person as obsessed with pharmacology as he would not only be unwilling to learn only from books, but also be able to relate everything in nature to pharmacology. Yan Guang once made a special evaluation of Liao Shi in front of his grandson Yan Xingzhi: In the current world, the refining of animal lipid liquids, except for monsters like Liao Shi, who are good at it, other pharmacists dare not touch it.

Yan Guang's evaluation of Liao Shi is actually indirectly equivalent to talking about himself.

Yan Xingzhi has also realized that the Yan family's medical skills are still generally staying in the area of herbal medicine, not because Yan Guang is conservative, but because the pace of the entire contemporary medical community is like this.

So, instead of criticizing other problems, just ask the way of medicine, in the field of animal fat refining medicine, can we find a way to overcome the strange family disease of the Yan family?

This idea is unknown, but the entry point of this field can indeed only be obtained from Liao Shi.

Yan Xingzhi knew that if he relied on his grandfather's current reputation in the medical community to put pressure on Liao Shi and ask him to cooperate and help, he would definitely give some face. But studying medicine is different from trading, not how much the master passes, the disciple can comprehend how much. This kind of knowledge requires the accumulation of time, and his grandfather's knowledge is close to a fixed pattern, so it is obviously not possible for him to study in his later years, and this matter has to be picked up and studied by the younger generation.

Yan Xingzhi believes that as a descendant of the Yan family, he also has an obligation to overcome the strange disease that has plagued the Yan family for many years. Even if it is necessary to borrow the power of other schools to accomplish such a goal, it seems that it is a little disrespectful to the knowledge that my grandfather has accumulated throughout his life. However, overcoming this difficulty cannot be accomplished by inheriting the ancestral business, and if you want to investigate it, my grandfather did not only seek a teacher when he was young.

After listening to Yan Xingzhi for a long time, he spoke again, and somehow, Liao Shi, who never cared about the feelings of others, suddenly felt a trace of self-blame, as if he had said something very mean and hurt the hearts of others - in fact, he often did this, but it was rare to be so self-aware today.

After hesitating for a moment, Liao Shi suddenly stopped his horse, turned to look at Yan Xingzhi, and said slowly: "If you want to travel far away, don't go this way, at least leave a letter for your family." After saying this, Liao Shi had already taken two small medicine bottles from his pocket. The bottle was uncorked because he had cast the mouth of the bottle. I saw him pinching the two bottles and knocking them together, the bottle mouth was broken, and the cap was opened. After combining the two bottles of liquid into one, he handed the bottle closer to Yan Xingzhi.

"There are not many potions, so you should write fewer words, and I will take you to Kyoto when I finish writing."

Yan Xingzhi was stunned at first when he saw this, but he didn't expect Liao Shi to let go and take the initiative to take him with him. Soon he also came back to his senses, and after a little thought, he was about to take off his coat and write on paper, but was stopped by Xing Feng, who was walking beside him.

Xing Feng had already jumped off the horse, took off his coat, covered it on the horse, and then said seriously: "Okay, write in my clothes, and I will help you bring the letter." Although I don't know why you have to follow this elder far away and go in such a hurry, I know that you will not be an unreasonable and impulsive person, and there must be a reason for doing so. You have not brought any luggage on this trip, you have to take care of yourself along the way, this weather, it seems to be raining, you have to be careful to keep warm. ”

Yan Xingzhi's heart warmed when he heard this, and he picked a leaf from the bundle of branches and leaves on the horse's back and made a pen, and hurried to write on Xing Feng's clothes, and at the same time said slowly, "Xing Feng." This elder is the pharmacist I often mention to you these days, and if I follow him, my family will be relieved. ”

When Xing Feng heard this, he couldn't help but look at the old man on the side a few more times. He couldn't imagine that the person he admired so much that Yan Xing had given birth to such a look. But when he turned his gaze and saw that Yan Xingzhi was writing with leaves stained in the bottle, Xing Feng remembered that the elder was dispensing medicine in front of him just now, and the liquid poured out of the bottle was colorless. But at this time, the tip of the leaf pen pinched in Yan Xingzhi's hand. But it was a bit of a glaring red.

He was immediately amazed that his opinion of the elder had changed dramatically. Look at the man's physical appearance again, and connect it with what he is doing in his hands. I just think it's weird.

Liao Shi didn't care much about the strange stares that others cast at him for a long time. Although he used to really want to prove it to others. He was originally very handsome, but he failed too many times, and he gradually gave up this idea. At this time, he looked at the young man with some incredulous looks. Liao Shi easily grasped the meaning of this gaze, which he had long been accustomed to ignoring. But when he saw that the young man also showed an incredulous expression to the bright red liquid in the bottle, he finally explained: "The bottle was originally used as a medicine to wash wounds, and the medicine is mild, and it will not be as terrible as something like it. ”

When he first saw the red liquid, Xing Feng did compare it to blood water, and Yan Xingzhi used such "ink" to write family letters, would it be a bit taboo? But he soon realized that as a child of the Orion family, he had not yet smelled blood that did not smell fishy. However, after hearing the elder's explanation, Xing Feng felt the other party's carefulness, and gradually developed some respect for the elder. Seemingly...... Yan Xingzhi admires him incomparably, and he is indeed hard-hearted.

The letter that Yan Xingzhi left to his mother was so short that it was only one sentence, and it was quickly written. Bidding farewell to Xing Feng, he drove his horse and galloped away with Liao Shi.

After rushing for an hour, seeing that the corners of the mount's mouth began to foam, Liao Shi had to slow down temporarily. His horse had been galloping for a day and a night yesterday, and he was tired enough, and he had to take a little leisurely on his way back. But the speed slowed down, and he was not idle, he took out a box from the cloth bag hanging on the horse's back, took out the snow silkworm crystal of two pages inside, and then untied his clothes, put the two pieces of paper into it, next to his warm chest and abdomen, and then closed the placket, and tied up the somewhat dirty and torn belt.

"This is ......" Yan Xingzhi, who saw this scene, immediately said: "Pharmacist, you are going to hatch snow silkworms, right?" ”

When picking the leaves eaten by the snow silkworms before, Liao Shi had already told Yan Xingzhi that this leaf was to be used to raise silkworms. Although the leaves that Liao Shi needs are not mulberry leaves, and silkworms will die as soon as they eat them, such a strange and bizarre thing, if it rests on Liao Shi, it is likely to be reasonable. For Liao Shi, Yan Xingzhi was already a little accustomed to this kind of assumption, but at this time, when he saw Liao Shi take out the snow silkworm crystal coated with two pieces of paper, which was actually silkworm eggs, he couldn't help but wonder again, it seemed that it was really a silkworm seed.

Liao Shi nodded, didn't say anything more, and then he began to pick the bundle of leaves on the horse's back and sprinkle them in the empty box.

Yan Xingzhi pondered for a moment, and suddenly said, "Is this also medicine?" ”

"Aren't you talking nonsense?" Liao Shi finally opened his mouth, because he had already covered the box with green leaves, and there was nothing else to do. Putting the box back in the cloth bag, Liao Shi picked up the hem of his clothes and wiped his hands casually, and then continued: "It's not medicine, I raised it to weave cloth?" ”

Yan Xingzhi couldn't help laughing when he heard this.

Liao Shi rarely has good words about people, and his mouth is more damaged, but this is only relative to ordinary people. If you compare himself with himself, his current state is better. He still has the leisure to joke, and although his joking skills are poor, at least it shows that he is in a good mood right now.

Therefore, Yan Xingzhi felt that at this time, he had something to say, and Liao Shi should not immediately change his mind just now, and just slipped away.

Laughing silently for a while, Yan Xingzhi gradually calmed down, and said slowly: "A few days ago, I lived with my grandfather in Kyoto for a few days, and he agreed that I would study with you. ”

Liao Shi said casually: "You said this to me a long time ago, why do you say it again now, is it true that you were lying a few years ago?" ”

As soon as he finished saying this, Liao Shi saw Yan Xingzhi's face gradually show a smile again, and he suddenly had a hint of awareness, feeling as if something bad was about to happen.

"No, I didn't lie to you, and you, as an elder, are always lying to me, a descendant, I hope you won't do this again this time." Yan Xingzhi slowly spoke, and his expression gradually became stricter: "Grandpa later promised me one thing, when I go home to live with my mother for a while, he will personally send me to you." ”

Liao Shi looked at Yan Xingzhi with surprise in his eyes, and he didn't pay attention for a moment, and almost fell off the horse. Dangling and sitting on horseback, Liao Shi coughed dryly, did not speak, and thought in his heart: This kid doesn't seem to be lying, when he was in Bailubo a few days ago, he always felt that Yan Guang's gaze was a little strange, it turned out that it was not an illusion, he really didn't say something.

"Pharmacist, I've never seen you in a hurry, so it's probably not easy for you to take this trip today." Yan Xingzhi didn't care about Liao Shi's contemplative gaze at all, no matter whether he was thinking of any tricks or not, he still continued to follow his own thoughts, and continued to continue the unfinished words unhurriedly, "Your destination may be Kyoto, or it may not be, I just hope that you don't take me to Kyoto because you want to leave me in Yan Mansion." Of course, even if you think so, my grandfather will still throw me back to you since he has already put his promise in front. It doesn't matter if you toss me, don't mistake your patient to get better. ”

If it is said that Liao Shi persuaded Yan Xingzhi to quit before, he mentioned Yan's mother and hit Yan Xingzhi's most concerns, then now Yan Xingzhi is somewhat similar.

He guessed, in fact, he wasn't sure if Liao Shi was in a hurry to save people, but when he saw him in such a hurry to dispense medicine, he realized the root of the problem. But as long as he guessed one thing correctly, it would make Liao Shi's scalp tingle, because Yan Xingzhi could write a letter to say goodbye to his mother, but Liao Shi couldn't snub Lin Shan's injury, not at all!

When parting can meet again, life and death are boundless.

Human life! Liao Shi thought that as Yan Xingzhi said, if he spent more time with Yan Xingzhi to "play", wouldn't it be tantamount to "playing" Lin Shan's life?

Realizing that he was being put in a position by an offspring, Liao Shi wanted to grind his teeth a little angrily, but after thinking about it, it was easy to bulldoze this matter, just take him with him - or just use medicine to stun him on the way, and just throw it in an inn and end it? …… (To be continued......)
