Chapter 461: Accepting Apprentices on Behalf of the Teacher
readx;
Sun Simiao was disappointed: "You don't accept apprentices? ”
Zuo Shaoyang said: "Yes! I was too young, and I made up my mind that I would not accept apprentices before I was fifty years old. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"This can be changed!"
"I can't change it, I'm sorry, besides, my osteopathy and anesthetics are ancestral secret recipes, which can only be passed on to my children and grandchildren, not to the outside world, even if they are my apprentices."
If you can't learn these two things, what to do with your teacher, Sun Simiao's face was full of disappointment, and she stroked her beard and began to circle around the room again.
He pondered in his heart, if there is only one prescription for stroke in this Xiaolang, it can be said to be a home remedy obtained by accident, and many Jianghu Lang more or less have their own home remedies, which is not surprising (of course, Zuo Shaoyang's home remedies are not comparable to ordinary Jianghu Lang), but in addition to this home remedies, Zuo Shaoyang also has gloomy wood osteopathy, including anesthetics!
This is a very remarkable medical skill, can use wood to graft bones, except for the ancient god doctor Hua Tuo can use willow branches to graft bones, I haven't heard of anyone who has this ability, just this ability, it is already smacking. However, there is a decoction that can make patients sleep and do not know the pain, which is used to graft bones and treat trauma surgery, and can be carried out boldly with confidence, without worrying that the patient will die of pain. This is another medical skill that Sun Simiao never dreamed of, and it is also something that the ancient divine doctor Hua Tuo could do.
These two are the magic skills of the divine doctor Hua Tuo, but this little lang can, could it be that he is the successor of the divine doctor Hua Tuo? If so, you can't let it go!
Sun Simiao is obsessed with medicine and Taoism, especially likes to collect folk secret recipes, and he tries to buy general secret recipes at any cost, not to mention knowing these two Hua Tuo magic skills, it is even more necessary to learn it by all means.
However, people don't want money, officials, women, or his prescriptions, but they like his longevity technique, and the general health preservation method of his longevity technique is not particularly novel. However, Zuo Shaoyang is only willing to exchange the stroke prescription for this return to emptiness and vomiting, and the gloomy wood bone grafting and anesthetic prescription that make Sun Simiao's eyes covet the most are unwilling to pass it on, how can he learn these two things?
He refused to teach, so he could only learn secretly, of course, Sun Simiao's secret learning was not to climb the wall and peep secretly, but to follow him, relying on his medical attainments, through observation and pondering, to figure it out.
If you want to do this, you can only think of a way to be with Zuo Shaoyang from time to time, it is useless to apprentice, Zuo Shaoyang does not accept apprentices, and this osteopathy and anesthetic are ancestral secret recipes, even if you accept apprentices, they will not be passed on, only to his own children and grandchildren.
So what to do?
Sun Simiao was thinking in his head, since he couldn't worship him as a teacher, why not turn it over and let him enter his own master's door, wouldn't there be a reason to be with him and learn his medical skills? Moreover, his own return to the void and vomiting can only be passed on in a single vein, since he wants to learn this spell, then he can use this to let him enter the master's door! Of course, you can't let him worship himself as a teacher, because he still has to learn things from him, how can there be a reason for the master to turn over and ask the apprentices, so he can only accept the apprentices on behalf of the teacher.
Accept apprentices on behalf of the teacher! It was in the name of Sun Simiao's master to accept Zuo Shaoyang as an apprentice and become Sun Simiao's junior brother, so that it was logical for the brothers to exchange medical skills and Taoism. In this way, there will be a reason to watch Zuo Shaoyang treat his illness and slowly ponder his medical skills!
Sun Simiao believes that with his medical attainments, even if Zuo Shaoyang does not teach, he will be able to figure out some Taoism for a long time.
Thinking of this idea, Sun Simiao suddenly smiled, and said to Zuo Shaoyang: "Since you want me to use the Returning Void Vomiting Gong to exchange the stroke recipe with you, it's okay, but if you want to learn from me, you have to promise me one thing!" ”
Zuo Shaoyang was overjoyed and hurriedly said, "Old man, please speak." ”
"You have to join my school."
Zuo Shaoyang said a little unashamedly: "Let me worship you as a teacher?" ”
"No," Sun Simiao said in a deep voice: "It's just because my return to the void and vomiting is only passed on to my own disciples, so if you want to learn, you can only enter my master's sect." However, you learn from me how to return to the void and vomit, and I learn from you how to treat stroke, and we learn from each other, so you don't have to worship me as a teacher, if you are willing to join my teacher, I will accept you as an apprentice for the first teacher. It's my junior brother. What do you think? ”
Zuo Shaoyang arched his hand and said: "Thank you for the love of the old man, I learned after I was born later, and I dare not compare with the old-timers." ”
Sun Simiao said with a smile: "Don't come to these fakes, you dare to comment on Zhongjing in the medical examination paper, what is not the one who is the saint of Zhongjing, be my junior brother, why don't you dare?" ”
Zuo Shaoyang was very embarrassed, and said curtly: "This, I, uh, I didn't expect to be able to cultivate into an immortal, so I ......"
"Don't you want to learn longevity? Taoists can not only cultivate into immortals, but also cultivate their own surnames, you practice my art of spitting, you have to take at least one month a year to go to the mountains and mountains far away from the people, calm down to practice, spit out the old and absorb the new, and absorb the essence of the moon. ”
"Is that a hassle?"
"Yes, this is indeed unacceptable for people who are obsessed with the prosperity of the world, so if you don't want to learn, I won't force it, you should choose one of the prescriptions, gold and silver, and official positions in exchange."
This aroused Zuo Shaoyang's competitiveness, his chest straightened, and he said: "Don't you just learn the Tao, don't you just take a month a year to live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, no problem!" As soon as he said this, he felt that it was inappropriate, so he asked in a low voice: "Old man, I am an apprentice, can I not leave home to be a Taoist priest?" Is it possible to skip eating and fasting? You don't have to quit sex, do you? ”
Sun Simiao smiled: "No need! ”
"Really?"
"Of course it's true."
Zuo Shaoyang smiled and said, "What about other spells?" Can I not learn it? I'm afraid I don't have that much time, I want to learn everything, but I can't learn anything. ”
Sun Simiao was a little embarrassed and said: "I have already said just now, my faction is a single lineage, and disciples can receive a lot, but this return to the void and vomit the gong can only be passed on to one of them. You are my junior brother, since I passed it on to you, after I die, you will be the only heir of my faction, that is, the future head. If you don't practice Taoism, how will you guide these disciples in the future? ”
"Huh?" Zuo Shaoyang was a little dumbfounded, "How many apprentices does the old man have?" ”
"It's not much, my surname is lazy, and I'm too lazy to teach my disciples, so I don't receive much."
Zuo Shaoyang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and it would be easier to do it if he didn't think much, and said, "How many?" ”
"There are only eight apprentices in my mine, but the apprentices have accepted apprentices, and the apprentices have accepted apprentices again, so that the sum of the apprentices' grandchildren and great-apprentices, not counting you, there are one hundred and fifty-three in total."
Zuo Shaoyang was dumbfounded for a moment, and said, "Are these all from you?" ”
"Yes! I also studied medicine for the sake of cultivating the Tao, so the people who studied the Tao with me also studied medicine with me. If you don't learn the Tao, you will become the head of the house in the future, and it will not be easy to convince the public. ”
Zuo Shaoyang rolled his eyes and said, "Anyway, old man, you are an old birthday star, and you still have one hundred and eighty years to live, with you, you don't need me to teach them Taoism." ”
"If you learn to return to emptiness and vomit, you can easily live past a hundred years old. It must live longer than me, and when I die, what will you do? ”
"This ......," Zuo Shaoyang said in a slur manner, "I will choose a young junior who is skilled in Taoism and can inherit the mantle, and then pass on the position of head to him, isn't it okay." ”
Sun Simiao smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Actually, cultivating Taoism also helps with longevity. However, since you don't want to learn spells and alchemy, don't learn them. I'm happy to be idle, too. If you want to learn in the future, I can teach you at any time. ”
Zuo Shaoyang was not interested in drawing talismans to catch ghosts and cultivating the spells of the elixir, he only wanted to learn the longevity technique, and he did not believe that these so-called spells would help him with longevity. Hearing this, he smiled and said, "That's decided!" I'm going to be in the teacher's door! How do you do this ritual? ”
"There's no hurry, there's still something to explain. When it is clear, it is not too late to proceed with the initiation ceremony. ”
"Old man, please speak."
"Optical return to emptiness and vomiting, it is not possible to learn other longevity techniques, and they must complement each other. And many longevity techniques are the way of health preservation, these methods are very simple to say, but not so simple to do, and the way of health preservation is not what is said, but must be done step by step, can not be done, even if you memorize my method to a rotten melon, if you don't follow it, it is useless! - Speaking of which, you may not be able to do these longevity techniques, and I told the emperor that he can't do it. Therefore, it is better to ask officials for money and women. ”
"Tell me first, what can't even the emperor do?"
"Indifferent to fame and fortune, no quarrel with the world, can the emperor do it?"
"That's it!" Zuo Shaoyang said with a smile, "It's okay to be indifferent to fame and fortune, the emperor is already the Ninth Five-Year Emperor, and fame and fortune are no longer a problem for him, but this is not in contention with the world, so he can't do it." Now that the northern Turks are invading, if the emperor has no quarrel with the world and does not organize resistance, then I am afraid that it will be the end of our Tang Dynasty. ”
"That's exactly what happened, so after the emperor heard about my longevity technique, he shook his head and said with a smile that this longevity technique is only for hermits like me, and there is no way to generalize it. ――You are a nine-rank official, you have just stepped into the official career, this is indifferent to fame and fortune, and there is no dispute with the world, can you do it? If you can't do it, it's better not to learn. ”
Zuo Shaoyang said with a smile: "I said it, I don't want to be an official, I can do it if I am indifferent to fame and fortune and have no dispute with the world." ”
"That's good, but if you really want to learn all my longevity techniques, I'm afraid you won't be able to be an official, and it's best to retire to the mountains and forests."
"You said, spend a month every year retreating to the mountains and forests and concentrate on cultivating the art of tuna."
"This is the minimum requirement, if you can cultivate in the mountains and forests all the year round, and practice him for ten years and eight years, it is the best, especially when you have just entered the Dao, the environment is very important. When I was young, I practiced with my master in Taibai Mountain for many years. ”
"It's good that I can stick to the hermit life for a month a year. Although I am indifferent to fame and fortune and have no quarrel with the world, let me retire to the mountains and forests now, I will be bored, I don't want to be a hermit for the sake of longevity. ”
