221. The examination begins

Xu Xiaole sent Han Tongzhi away, and found Dai Simon to come over as a coolie, pulled a rope a hundred steps outside the gate, and set up a notice, explaining that there were tuberculosis patients inside, and anyone who entered must wear a burqa to cover their mouth and nose, and when they came out, they must clean their hands and bodies with wormwood and burn the burqa to avoid contracting tuberculosis.

The mountain people here all know that this is a place for Taoist priests to retreat, and they will not come here to collect firewood and medicine when they are free. However, just in case, Xu Xiaole still asked Dai Simon to go around and tell him. He only said the safety matters to be paid attention to when entering and exiting, and did not say that they were not allowed to enter and exit, but the mountain people were not very curious. And because I was afraid of contracting tuberculosis, and I didn't have the spare money to buy a full set of clothes, I naturally wouldn't go in.

After doing these things, Xu Xiaole went down the mountain. He can't delay too long on the mountain tonight, tomorrow is the day of the pharmacy ambassador examination, and he must go back and have a good rest.

In order to avoid suspicion, Xu Xiaole did not visit Tan Gongchao's house after all. In fact, he was so busy with things that he didn't even ask what subjects he was taking. So much so that I don't know whether to take the classics, or identify medicinal materials, or find some patients to heal.

People in the world often say that there is no first in literature and no second in martial arts. However, the level of martial arts can be in the ring, and the level of writing also has its own considerations, but the level of medical skills cannot be determined.

However, with Xu Xiaole's heart, since he couldn't think of it, he simply didn't want to. He took the time to go home, reported to his sister-in-law and sisters what he was busy with these days, left a bunch of snacks bought in Suzhou City, and went back to Changchun Hall.

Li Xiqiang and Gu Xuan were more concerned about this matter than him, and they were waiting in the hospital to tell him some rumors on the market.

Xu Xiaole listened impatiently, and only said: "What is there to speculate, won't you know if you go to the county medical office tomorrow?" ”

Li Xiqiang had no choice but to give up, but Gu Xuan was still a little unwilling.

Xu Xiaole returned to the room and practiced the guidance technique before it was too late. Then, according to the instructions of Wu Daochang and Dai Simeng, he practiced the light body lifting technique, and felt a little tired, so he went to bed. I slept until dawn, and there was a movement of the guys getting up outside.

Xu Xiaole turned over and jumped out of bed, refreshed, and said secretly: Today is another good day!

As soon as he opened the door, he saw Huang Ren holding a copper basin, his eyelids were still a little swollen, obviously he hadn't slept well. Chen Mingyuan was holding a cotton towel in both hands, Qin Kang was holding a glass of water, and the other hand was holding a bristle toothbrush.

Xu Xiaole looked confused and said, "What are you doing here?" ”

Chen Mingyuan smiled and said, "I'm waiting for me to do something for my husband." ”

Without waiting for Chen Mingyuan's words to fall, Li Jinfang came over early, and was finally relieved to see that Xu Xiaole hadn't washed yet. He stepped forward and said with a smile: "Mr. Xu, everyone is waiting for you to come back in your official uniform." ”

Xu Xiaole smiled and took the breakfast directly, which was a hot brown sugar flatbread. He said as he ate, "I don't know how they take the test." ”

In the past, the Ministry of Rites and the Tai Hospital used to take written exams for doctors and medical students, and the key was to see whether they knew the classics by heart.

These people did not go to see a doctor when they entered the Tai Hospital, but learned art from the old imperial doctors who were old and virtuous. Nowadays, the direct examination of the ambassador of the pharmacy is to serve the people, and it is obvious that the method of written examination cannot be followed.

Xu Xiaole ate the cake before washing his face and brushing his teeth, and then drove away the four apprentices and did his own morning class. Now that channeling has become his daily habit, not practicing his limbs and bones for a day is like being frozen, which is very uncomfortable. As for being mainly used to replenish kidney qi, Xu Xiaole forgot a little.

After practicing the guidance technique, Xu Xiaole rode the ink essence leisurely and went to the county medical office.

The county medical office is on the same street as the county office. This time, because it alarmed too many people, the chief examiner was a professor of prefectural medicine, and one of the two deputy examiners was Tan Gongchao of the Wuxian County Medical Office, and the other was appointed by the principal of the Changzhou County Medical Office.

Xu Xiaole changed into the straight jacket that looked like a dog, rode the ink essence, appeased Pippi, and happily went to the county medical office.

When there were still two streets away from the county medical office, Xu Xiaole found that something was wrong. The streets are full of porters carrying shoulders, and it is as lively as a market. Seeing that they all had bright smiles on their faces, it seemed that they had taken a good job.

Xu Xiaole couldn't help but call a porter and asked, "What's going on here today?" Why so many people? ”

The porter looked at him and said, "Today, there is an examination for the county medical office, and the doctors from these ten miles and eight townships are here." ”

Xu Xiaole was taken aback: "So many people? ”

Naturally, he didn't believe in the exaggeration of "ten miles and eight townships" -- how could there be a doctor in the township! But just counting the shoulders in front of you, there are twenty or thirty here!

One person with one shoulder, that is twenty or thirty people. And doctors don't have to sit on their shoulders, but also walk, ride, boat, and mule...... This time, the range of candidates is really wide!

Xu Xiaole couldn't figure it out, where did they find so many doctors?

In the past, it was difficult to find a doctor to see a doctor, but now that there are so many popping up, where were they hidden before? He scratched his head, thinking that there were only three or five people, but now that there are so many people, he doesn't know what kind of test method should be.

The more Xu Xiaole walked to the front, the more people came. Come to think of it, doctors are also high-income people. There are not many doctors like him who go out without a small servant or an apprentice. When the doctors entered the county office, their families waited outside, and immediately the streets were filled with not very spacious.

Xu Xiaole stored the ink essence in an inn and gave a few big sums of money to ask the store guys to take care of it. He walked to the front of the crowd, took a deep breath, and plunged into the crowd like a fierce man, forcefully separating the bustling people of all colors, and finally squeezed to the door of the county medical office.

With so many people gathered in one place, there was a county government not far from it, and Fang Zhi County had already sent people to guard it to avoid accidents.

The gatekeeper was about to drive the disheveled young man away, and finally one of them recognized Xu Xiaole, who was Lei Zhukuai. He stopped his partner who was about to do it, led Xu Xiaole in, and said with a smile: "Little Doctor Xu, why did you come." ”

Xu Xiaole gasped and touched the hair towel first, but fortunately he didn't squeeze it off, otherwise he would have to go in bareheaded. He straightened up his clothes and said with palpitations: "I stepped on the point, am I late?" ”

Lei Zhukuai gently pushed Xu Xiaole in, and said, "My master, come in, the chief examiner is all sitting in the hall, so you dare to step on it." ”

Xu Xiaole said secretly: Then your post didn't say that you would come in advance!

He was still a little anxious, but when he passed the foyer, he saw many people standing on both sides of the front yard. Each of these men was dressed in elaborate robes, and was obviously an ordinary person, but they were all pampered and looked like rich men - the doctors who had come to the examination, of course.

Seeing that the examination had not yet begun, Xu Xiaole finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Ask for a subscription, ask for a monthly pass, and sorry for being late today!
