Chapter 58: Thousands of miles away, just for the sake of order!
"The body is like a ship against the current, and the heart is stronger than iron and stone. Looking at his father's ambitions, he is not afraid of difficulties until death. ”
Li Shizhen once again thought of his father, Li Yanwen.
"Father, for the sake of the Compendium of Materia Medica, for the sake of the family and the country, for the sake of future generations, and for the people."
"Son, I'm going to be a ship against the current again."
In the blink of an eye, it was a few days later.
"Mr. Li, the folks have come to see you."
I saw that in front of Li Shizhen's door, the villagers he had helped and treated before were all gathered around his door.
"Folks, what are you doing here?"
Li Shizhen saw so many villagers standing outside the door, and hurriedly invited them into the house.
"Mr. Li, I heard that you are in trouble when you go out, so the villagers want to come and give you ideas and do their part."
"Yes, Mr. Li, you have been helping us, whether it is to see a doctor or treat a disease, now that you are in trouble, we should also do our part."
"Grandpa Li, don't look at me small, but Grandpa said, you often help us, and now it's our turn to help you."
"Yes, Mr. Li, you have been helping us all these years."
"I think that my father didn't have the money to see a doctor back then, but you still gave me the consultation, which is the consultation fee that our family owes you."
As he spoke, the middle-aged man took out a bag of money and handed it to Li Shizhen with both hands.
"Yes, Mr. Li, you have helped our colleagues in the medicine store over the years, I will order a few of the herbs you rebuilt and put them in the shop."
As he spoke, Shopkeeper Zhao also handed the money in his hand to Li Shizhen.
"Yes, Mr. Li, I also want a few."
"I want it too!"
"We all want it."
Seeing the villagers like this, the expression on Li Shizhen's face was very complicated.
He really wanted to help the villagers, the people in the medicine shop, he wanted to help.
However, it is still unknown whether the "Compendium of Materia Medica" can be engraved now.
"Fathers and fellow villagers, your heart, Shi Zhen has received it."
"It is the duty of a doctor to treat diseases and save people, how can Shi Zhen accept such a favor from everyone."
"Please rest assured, when I go, I will definitely tell Wang Shizhen Wang Shizhen what the villagers are looking forward to."
"No matter how difficult it is, I will print the Compendium of Materia Medica."
Li Shizhen really didn't want to see the villagers like this.
He is here to represent all the people of Qizhou, the people of the country and the world, and the people of later generations.
He will definitely do his best to live up to the trust.
"Good!"
"Mr. Li, we all believe in you."
Looking at the familiar faces, Li Shizhen bowed deeply.
"Folks, farewell!"
In this way, Li Shizhen took everyone's hopes and expectations and embarked on the road of seeking order for thousands of miles.
"Mr. Li!"
"This trip, smooth!"
Looking at Li Shizhen's distant back, the villagers shouted at him.
They know that Li Shizhen is not going for the sake of individuals, but for the sake of the people of the world.
An old man who is over the age of six, now it is not for himself, but for the people of the world, to go thousands of miles and seek to go out, how can they not be moved.
The villagers have been following Li Shizhen, staring at his back, and walked far, far away.
It seems that they all want to accompany Li Shizhen, but they know in their hearts that their home is in Qizhou.
However, now, their hearts are on Li Shizhen's body.
Li Shizhen turned around, looked at the villagers who went out of the city all the way, and bowed deeply.
"Folks, go back, Shi Zhen, you will live up to your trust."
With that, he turned around and really embarked on the path that might never turn back.
Li Shizhen came to Yishan Park in Taicang, Jiangsu Province to see Wang Shizhen.
handed over the worship post several times, but Wang Shizhen has always been closed.
Li Shizhen is also a person who is not afraid of difficulties.
Although he is old, he is old, but he has to guard the door of other people's mansions, just to get a preface.
In the end, Li Shizhen had no choice but to ask Wang Shizhen's gatekeeper to show Wang Shizhen the "Compendium of Materia Medica".
That's when I got to see it.
"Mr. Li, my family has read your "Compendium of Materia Medica", and my lord invites you to come in."
Hearing the words of the gatekeeper, Li Shizhen was very happy.
Three steps and two steps, and hurriedly followed.
"Okay, good book."
At this time, a person in the house, although he was old, could see the demeanor of everyone, flipping through the "Compendium of Materia Medica".
"My lord, Mr. Li Shizhen has arrived."
Seeing Li Shizhen coming, Wang Shizhen hurriedly got up and greeted him.
"Jing Chu contemptible Li Shizhen, meet Lord Wang."
"Mr. Li doesn't have to be polite."
After the two gave way to each other, Wang Shizhen glanced at Li Shizhen, and her eyes were full of appreciation.
"This book is written by Mr.?"
"Don't hide it from Lord Wang, it's right down."
Because he didn't know Lord Wang, Li Shizhen was restrained everywhere, and he was also very respectful and polite.
If you have something to ask for others, you must not offend others.
"Mr. Li, this book is really a huge book."
"The emperor's fifty-two volumes, a collection of the previous dynasties of the Materia Medica, the first time to classify the outline, the introduction of the Materia Medica, creating a precedent for the past dynasties of Materia Medica, the structure of the rigorous, the content of the detailed, the summary of the comprehensive, is really unprecedented."
Wang Shizhen looked at the "Compendium of Materia Medica" in his hand, he was very excited, and he could see that he liked this book very much.
"Lord Wang has an overreputation."
Li Shizhen said very humbly.
"I don't know how many years Mr. has been writing books?"
"From the time I picked up the pen to the rough completion of the book, nearly 30 years."
Hearing Li Shizhen's answer, Wang Shizhen looked at him in disbelief with a shocked face.
Wang Shizhen stroked her beard thoughtfully and looked at Li Shizhen again.
"Then sir, why did you write this book?"
"The book of Materia Medica, since Emperor Yan, and the Han, Liang, Tang, and Song dynasties, has been updated and more complete in each dynasty, but there are still many errors in it."
"Shi Zhen has been a doctor all his life, and he should take it as his responsibility to save lives and help the injured and benefit the people's livelihood, so he does not take the liberty and rebuilds the materia medica."
At this time, the more Wang Shizhen listened, the more excited she became.
And Li Shizhen is the same.
He knew in his heart that as long as Wang Shizhen liked the "Compendium of Materia Medica", there would be hope for the engraving.
"Lord Wang, today I would like to beg for a word, in order to support immortality, and I implore Lord Wang to write a preface to the "Compendium of Materia Medica"!"
After listening to Li Shizhen's request, Wang Shizhen smiled.
I was smiling very happily.
"Li Jun has worked for the benefit of all the people, and it took him 30 years to write the book, and I would like to write a preface to the "Compendium of Materia Medica"!"
Wang Shizhen's emotions became more and more excited.
He was also happy, relieved, and proud to be able to write the preface to these books.
Hearing Wang Shizhen's words, Li Shizhen was very happy, and her eyes were full of excitement.
"Shi Zhen, thank you, Lord Wang!"
As he spoke, he wanted to kneel, but Wang Shizhen hurriedly grabbed him.
"Li Jun must not, I like this book very much, and besides, you are for the people of the present world and the people of the future, I can write a preface to this book, I am stained."
In this way, Wang Shizhen successfully wrote the preface to the "Compendium of Materia Medica".
Seeing this, everyone laughed and laughed very happily.
"Great, there is a scene where I don't cry, congratulations to Mr. Li."
"Who said it, I think I'm so moved, Li Shizhen is so old, and he still has to work for the welfare of all the people and inherit it for my future generations."
"Yes, I'm also very moved, why the ancients were so great."
Similarly, Xia Xuan also had a long-lost smile on his face.
