Five days later...

Zhang Yi's family finally reached the vicinity of their destination, and more than a day of them was spent climbing mountain paths, after all, the destination was far away from the city's countryside, and the final goal was on the mountains below.

Although Zhang Zhen and Wang Qin were a little tired, the surrounding countryside and the rare scenery of the countryside also made the whole family really experience the joy of the outing.

From the medium-sized village in front of the mountains, I learned that there was an old man living on the hill in this neighboring village, that is, the old man Zhang Yi and the family were looking for.

This old man is also a big celebrity in this village, the old man's real name is Liu Yao, and the old people in the village call him Yao Lao, an old man who has a lot of knowledge in herbal medicine, and it is the knowledge passed down by Liu Yao's ancestors.

It's just that the Yao Lao's sons did not inherit the will of this knowledge, so the Yao Lao could only give this knowledge to himself.

Yao Lao originally lived in the city with his children, but when people are old, they don't like the noisy environment in the city, so Yao Lao lives with each of his sons for a while, and finally chooses to return to his hometown alone.

His wife died in an accident ten years ago, and she died due to a car accident, which is one of the reasons why the medicine elder does not like city life.

Because the best skill of the medicine elder is to use herbal medicine, so in the village at the foot of this mountain, there is not a single person of the older generation who has not let the medicine elder treat him.

Because of this, there are really a lot of people in the village who seek knowledge from the medicine elders, but there is no one who really makes the medicine elders eye, or they are really able to endure loneliness, and there is no one who can accompany the medicine elders to learn in the mountains.

Fortunately, his sons were not worried that their father would live alone, so they spent a sum of money to buy a mobile phone for the old man and asked about their father's condition every day.

Therefore, his family members have always been very clear about the life of the old man, but this phone number is only available to the four brothers.

As for the need to walk for an hour to get to the old man's residence on the mountain, of course, this is because the villagers took the initiative to open a road, so that the old man of their family can go up the mountain to seek medical treatment, and so that the old man can walk down the mountain more safely.

After all, the old man is regarded as the benefactor of the elder in their village, and every time the villagers come to the door to ask for medical treatment, they will prepare some food and other civilian goods, on the one hand, the old man does not charge money, on the other hand, the old man does not lack money, because the old man and his four sons will send him money and flowers every month.

And the medicine elder's interest is to grow medicine grass in the mountains, and occasionally there are patients who come to use those medicine herbs to save people, and he also chats with the patients about family life, so that he can know some things in the village, so that he doesn't know anything, of course, there is still TV in the medicine family, but he cares more about the big and small things in the village.

And the villagers will also take turns to go up the mountain to visit the medicine elder, after all, the medicine elder still has a lot of old friends in this village, and climbing the mountain more is also a good thing to train the body.

It's just that the age of the medicine elder is really old, and the medicine grass needed for treatment, the medicine elder will pick new ones, so the people in the village have become as little as possible to go to the medicine for the elderly, on the one hand, because the medicine old man's physical strength is not as good as before, and those medicine herbs are planted in various places in the mountains, although the terrain is stable and safe, but it still takes some time to pick.

On the other hand, it is also because there are already small hospitals in the village, so the more children are present, the more they like convenient hospitals, so except for the older generation, few people now know about the medicine on the mountain.

Therefore, when Zhang Yi's family came to this village to inquire about the old man, it would make the old man in the village shocked, and after hearing the reason, he told the way up the mountain and the old man about the medicine in a more kind way.

When Zhang Zhen and his family came to the door of Yao's old house, because of the medicine grass they saw along the way and the words of the villagers at the foot of the mountain, they were more confident that the old man could cure his second son's illness.

Looking at the door outside the house, Zhang Zhen cleaned up his nervous mood and pressed it, while Wang Qin was holding his second son and standing next to Zhang Zhen and waiting.

At this time, he glanced at the eldest son next to his feet, because he said that he wanted to go by himself, so Zhang Qin didn't hold it, when he saw Zhang Xiang's stupid look on his face, Wang Qin's heart was difficult for a while, but the thought of what he heard from the village made Wang Qin have more hope for this medicine Lao Dong.

Zhang Yi looked at the mountain scenery along the way, and the various medicinal herbs that could be seen everywhere, and said that he was very good in his mood, because he recalled the past events, and remembered the mountains and medicinal herbs...

After a while... The door of the house was slowly opened, and a tough old man of nearly seventy years old came out.

Looking at the family in front of him, the old man smiled knowingly and said, "I think you are Zhang Zhen, right? As for the one next to you is your wife, and the one who is being held should be the child who needs medical treatment." ”

Saying that, the old man paused his voice, looked at his child who was smiling on the side, and suddenly felt a little better in his mood, and asked with a smile: "Then this is the child who knows my home phone, come in, I want to check the condition of your second son first, and really prescribe the right medicine." ”

Zhang Zhenyan nodded excitedly in his heart, and pulled his wife, who had a little ups and downs like himself, into the door, while Zhang Yi watched the old man silently after entering the door, because the old man's line of sight had a lot more smile on the old man's face since he saw him again.

After a short while, when the old man read Zhang Xiang's condition carefully, his heart was relieved, because Zhang Xiang did not have any different symptoms, so his ancestral medicine prescription could really cure Zhang Xiang.

Therefore, with a confident smile, the medicine elder said to Zhang Zhenji, "I think it only takes about a month for treatment, and the child will be completely well after treatment."

Why don't you stay in my house, I'm the only one in my house anyway, and you can help me with a little favor, can you?"

Wang Qin replied with excited tears when he heard this: "We are willing, we are willing to stay, if my second son can really be cured, then you are the benefactor of our family!"

Zhang Zhen also opened his mouth with red eyes and said: "Yes, Yao Lao, this is a little bit of our family's heart, please accept it, although it is not much, but it can be regarded as some of our replies to you." ”

Looking at the red bag that came in front of him, the old man's face was a little unhappy at times, and at this time, he saw that because he was in an excited mood, he forgot to remember his parents who had been explained by the villagers before, Zhang Yi suddenly opened his mouth and said: "Old man, is this money even the rent for us living here? ”

The old man wanted to open his mouth, but suddenly he heard the child who had been silent on the side open his mouth, thought about these words for a while, and suddenly replied with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "Okay, child.. Your name is Zhang Yi, right? I wonder if you're interested in medicine? After all, I can't find anyone to teach my old man, would you like to stay with me for this month, so that I can be a teacher again?"

Zhang Yi thought about it for a while, nodded his head and said, "Okay, it's just the old man... My brother is very smart, smarter than me, and my brother will also need this knowledge of herbal medicine, which is better for my brother's future development. ”

After Zhang Zhen and Wang Qin heard this, they both turned their heads in surprise and looked at their eldest son, although they knew that their eldest son was very smart and sensible, but this sentence was obviously an adult's thoughts.

The old medicine man's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he replied with a smile: "Really? Then I have to take good care of your brother, so do you have time during this time? Do you want to spend time with my boss?"

Zhang Yi tilted his head and said with a smile: "Okay, when my brother is better, I will teach him with the old man, and the old man will not be afraid that no one will know these herbs in the future." ”

The medicine elder laughed even more happily after hearing this, and Zhang Zhen and Wang Qin stared at their son even more intensely, they felt that they only knew their eldest son today, but when they thought of the sensibility of their eldest son, they just took this matter to heart, because as long as their son likes it, what is wrong?

In the days to come, Zhang Yi accompanied Yao Lao in the mountains to learn some knowledge when he had time, and Zhang Xiang still liked to run behind Zhang Yi because he had not yet recovered.

As for Wang Qin, he gave a comprehensive sweep of the old man's home, while Zhang Zhen accompanied his two sons to follow the old man.

Listening to the conversation between the old and the young in front of him, Zhang Zhen's heart was a little numb, because Zhang Yi, who rarely opened his mouth at home, was like a different person after coming here, and he said that he had never taught him something in his heart, which made Zhang Zhen a little worried about what he watched every day, but in the end, under the persuasion of his wife, he no longer worried, after all, no matter how smart he was, he was also his own son, wasn't he?

The old man originally wanted to re-explain the basic knowledge of the herb, but the child named Zhang Yi directly finished the old medicine lecture as if he knew it all after he opened his mouth, so the old man turned his head and looked at Zhang Zhen, who was shocked and speechless, and immediately knew that this was the child's own ability.

At the moment, he didn't feel bad, but felt that he had picked up a treasure, and after chatting for more than half a month, the medicine elder already understood the aspects of this child's ability, it can be said that this child is not much worse than himself, but he has his own special problems in some special puzzles.

As for Zhang Xiang, he was completely cured after only half a month of treatment, so Zhang Zhen and Wang Qin were grateful to the old man, and the old man just smiled and replied: "This is not only my work, but also this child's illness is milder than I thought, so it will get better faster." ”

It is also because they know that their eldest son's ~ knowledge ~ rich wealth, so Zhang Zhen and Wang Qin also plan to live in this mountain village, after all, some people are willing to teach their own children is also good, and this is a very good local environment, and the life is much more comfortable than before, on the other hand, it is also because of the persistence of their eldest son.

The medicine elder who heard this was even more hearted, originally he wanted to teach the child, but in the end he found that it had become a mutual learning, but there was still one that could be taught, right?

As for why Zhang Yi knew so many things? The old man didn't care about this at all, after all, he could even get a phone call in his dreams, so what did this knowledge count?

He also saw that the child was often in a daze all the time, and looking at the expression on the child's face in a daze, it made the old man completely turn off the mood to ask.

As for the problem of the inheritance of herbal medicine, it has also been solved, because he finally found an apprentice, and sure enough, just like Zhang Yi said, Zhang Xiang is really gifted with Chinese medicine, and in just a few days, not only the basic herbal medicine has been memorized, but also some examples can be cited to describe it, which makes the medicine elder love Zhang Xiang very much, and he directly recognized Zhang Xiang as his grandson.

As for Zhang Yi, because he was unwilling to be the grandson of Yao Lao, he just became friends with Yao Lao, so Yao Lao's lonely days became a lot happier, and Zhang Zhen and Wang Qin also found jobs in the village, so it can be said that the family lived a much happier life than before.

Time passes...

Zhang Yi has been here for two years, and after his younger brother got better, he no longer tied himself to himself, but began to learn Chinese medicine knowledge from the old man, because he knew that it was the Chinese medicine doctor who took care of him, so he wanted to be a Chinese medicine master in the future, so he continued to study with the old doctor, and Zhang Yi often helped his younger brother to fill up some extra knowledge, using... More simply, the clear way to guide.

Looking at his younger brother who ran behind the medicine elder every day, Zhang Yi felt funny, because every time the medicine elder would have a headache at this time, his apprentice was really too active, and even he wanted to run with him just to see the situation of the medicine herb, but he also needed to ask Zhang Yi to help him catch this kid, so that he would not always run after him, after all, the mountains without roads were really a little dangerous!

On this day, Yao Lao was going to inspect the medicine grass again, so Zhang Yi had already arrested people at the door, and when he caught the apprentice being caught, Yao Lao took a breath of relief and left in a hurry.

At this time, Zhang Yihuai's younger brother raised his head, and Zhang Yi, who looked at him with curious eyes, said, "My brother has grabbed me again, so what knowledge does my brother want to tell me today?"

Today, Zhang Yiyi smiled mysteriously: "Today, my brother won't tell you about herbal medicine, and today my brother will teach you something else." ”

After saying that, with his curious younger brother, Zhang Yi came to the back of the old medicine house, and then Zhang Xiang saw some wooden sticks that Zhang Yi had secretly prepared, and there was also a simple wooden figure.

Therefore, Zhang Xiang turned his head to Zhang Yi curiously and asked, "Brother, what is this?"

Zhang Yi held something in his hand and said to Zhang Xiang: "Xiao Xiang, in addition to having knowledge, you also need self-defense martial arts to be safe. Xiao Xiang can't tell his father's mother, otherwise his brother will have a headache. ”

Zhang Xiang looked down at his new toy, raised his head and smiled at Zhang Yi: "I won't tell my dad and mom, it's just... What does Uncle Yao do? I don't want to look at him..."

Zhang Yi looked at his younger brother with a pricked face, and said with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "This is your medicine uncle already knows, so it has nothing to do with him, okay! Come and practice, by the way! Your hands will be injured if you practice diligently, so you have to rub the medicine after you practice." ”

Zhang Xiang nodded understandingly, "Let's start then, I have one more game to play in the future." ”

After Zhang Yi listened to his brother's words, he smiled and handed Zhang Xiang the smaller stick, while he himself took the larger stick and began the martial arts course he planned for his younger brother.

And the medicine elder will also come to the side of the house to sit in his free time, make tea and watch the two children in the backyard practice martial arts, and every day the two of them will become stronger.

And the medicine boss spent most of his time thinking, I really don't know where Xiao Yi learned all this knowledge, but he just looked at it with a smile, because everyone has secrets, so there is no need to explore too much, because this kind of day will be more comfortable, anyway, the higher the ability of the person he cares about, the better.
