Chapter 9 Reading
"Tie Tower, I have finished teaching this "Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon", whether you can study it thoroughly depends on your understanding." Lao Ma said solemnly, "If you want to become a famous doctor, theoretical knowledge alone is not enough, but also must be combined with practice." When you have free time, you can go and pick some herbs and come back, corroborate them with books to see what the difference is, and if you can, you can taste them yourself. β
"Yes, Master." Tie Ta nodded and said, "Do you want me to taste all the herbs like Shennong?" β
"Of course I'm glad you have this ambition, but don't try the Broken Gut Grass, I don't want to lose a good apprentice."
"Don't worry, the apprentice is young and promising, and he doesn't want to die yet!"
The master and apprentice laughed in unison.
Early the next morning, Tie Ta came to Nanshan Ranch to start his career as a medicine. Today's harvest is really good, I picked most of the baskets of herbs in one morning, including angelica, Qing Banxia, codonopsis, and astragalus...... The vast grassland is really a huge treasure trove, not only the water and grass are abundant, but even the herbs are everything, the size is large, the year is enough, and the medicinal effect must not be bad.
"Big brother, there are your compatriots there." Lightning really has the potential to be a scout, and although he soars nine days away, he can still see the situation on the ground clearly.
Standing on the dirt slope and looking into the distance, the tower saw a large herd of bison eating breakfast there, and a few naughty calves chasing and playing beside it.
"Whew!" Suddenly, a few lion's roars came.
"The lion is coming, run." The bison were so frightened that they scattered and fled, even the calves beside them.
"Give me a chase, and I'll kill two." Zhan Huo shouted, this task was won by himself with great difficulty, and he must do a good job and make a good show for his eldest brother.
He pursed his lips vigorously and said disdainfully: "These bison are really a bad breed, they have such a strong body in white, so many people are actually frightened by a few lions and run away, and one person can trample the enemy to death with one foot." β
The tower frowned and remained silent.
"Big brother, I didn't mean you." Dali hurriedly explained, he knew that the eldest brother was very unhappy.
In fact, what Dali said is not what the tower thinks? He couldn't help but feel a sense of sadness.
"Don't go, help me." A calf was left alone, and he called out to his companions who were far away, but no one came back to help, not one! At this moment, he regretted it very much, he shouldn't have hidden from his father and mother to come out to play, but how can there be regret medicine in the world?
One lion jumped onto the cow's back from behind, and several others bit his hind legs.
The calf's limbs were weak and his body was shaky, but he was still trying to persevere. He knew very well that if he fell to the ground, there was no chance of survival.
Saying nothing could cost his fellow man, the tower quickly ran towards him, and with a flick of his head lifted a lion into the air, and the sharp horns of the bull pierced a large hole in him, and the lion's body was as tender as a piece of tofu compared to the hard trunk of a tree.
"Not good!" The war secretly complained, and I couldn't help but be afraid in my heart, this is the territory of the Mara tribe, and if I go deep alone, I will be wiped out.
The other lions also realized the seriousness of the matter, and fled with a shout, and none of them wanted to die in the wilderness like their unfortunate companions.
The tower pursued the victory, and the lion that landed at the end was flown out by the top of his horns, and fell to the ground with a "snap", and stopped moving after kicking on all fours.
"It turns out that the lion is not as strong as I imagined!" The tower was a little complacent, this was the first actual combat in his life, and he was facing the lion known as the king of the grassland, so he didn't dare to be careless, how much strength he had, now it seems that his combat effectiveness is not bad, and he already has the strength to fight the lion alone.
"Big brother is awesome!" Mighty and Lightning applauded excitedly.
"Wow! Wow! The frightened calf finally fell down as soon as his legs were weak, and then he let go of his voice and cried loudly, scarred and bloody, which was really indescribably pitiful.
"Little brother, don't be afraid." The tower comforted.
"I ...... Am I going to die? β
"We bison are the bravest and strongest, how can we die so easily! Don't worry, it's just some skin trauma, it's not a big deal. Tieta chewed the herbs and applied them to his wounds, and then bandaged them carefully, this little fellow was really blessed, but fortunately he acted in time, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable.
β¦β¦
"Quick, keep up!" By the pond, Black Wind anxiously commanded his own soldiers.
"If there is any damage to my people, I swear I will make them pay back tenfold." Dashan said coldly.
After hearing the news of the lion's attack, the two leaders of the Mara tribe hurriedly led people over, but they didn't expect it to be a step too late. Just when they were anxious, they saw a young bull slaughtering in all directions, both of them were ashamed of their strength and speed.
"Little Tower, is that you?" Black Wind was surprised and delighted.
Dashan smiled, as if he saw his younger self.
"Uncle Shan, Uncle Feng." The tower said hello.
"Good boy, when did you learn this good skill? Not only will it fight, but it will also heal wounds, not bad! Hei Feng laughed, Xiaota was brought up by himself, and he had a bright face.
"Actually, I haven't gone to work at all for more than a year, but I'm cultivating with a master." Tie Ta blushed and said, "Uncle Feng, you won't blame me, will you?" β
"Blame you? It's too late for me to be happy, how can I blame you! In fact, I already knew about this matter, it depends on when you explain it honestly. "As the second leader of the tribe, what can the herd hide from the black wind? He had already investigated it clearly, but he just didn't want to expose it.
Cultivating with a master? Could it be his old man? Dashan looked at the tower thoughtfully, if it was really his old man, then the opportunity for this kid in the tower was really good.
"Big brother, this time Xiaota has made a great contribution, he should be given a little reward!" Black Wind said.
"The second brother is right." Dashan also felt the same way, "Kid, what reward do you want?" β
"I just did what I was supposed to do, and I didn't need any reward." Tie Ta modestly said that the master taught himself to defend the interests of the tribe and protect the lives of his compatriots, and he always kept it in mind and did not dare to forget, and the action just now was neither reckless nor impulsive, but the chivalrous thoughts in his bones that spurred him and inspired him.
"This kid is like that, thin-skinned." Hei Feng smiled, "I know he likes to read, so let him go to the academy tomorrow!" This wish has been hidden in Hei Feng's heart for a long time, but he doesn't want to use his power to force others, and now that the tower has made a great contribution, he can go to the academy justifiably.
"Uncle Feng, I don't want to go to school." Tie Ta politely rejected Heifeng's kindness, after a year of teaching by the master, he was already full of poetry and books, full of wealth, even if he went to the top exam, and he didn't want to see that Teacher Bai, not because he deprived himself of the qualification to study, but because he was unfair, such a teacher believes that it is not much better.
"Don't go to school? Do you want to stream for the rest of your life? "Hei Feng is angry, he treats the tower like his own son, what he doesn't like is a scolding, this is also where the tower respects him the most, Uncle Feng didn't treat me as an outsider.
"Alright! I'll go. Tie Ta reluctantly agreed, and went to stay for two days first, and if he couldn't do it, he would skip class.
"Well, that's it, I'll discuss it with Teacher Bai when I go back." With a wave of his hand, the mountain led the herd back triumphantly.
"Atta, it's great, we two brothers can finally go to school together." Hearing the good news, Black Cloud was excited.
Tie Ta smiled wryly, he really didn't have any interest in going to school.
β¦β¦
Walk past the lively pond and along the tree-lined path full of flowers, and after four or five miles there is a small forest. There is a two-entry mansion in the forest, the decoration is antique, revealing a bookish smell, this is the school of the Mara tribe.
In the eyes of ordinary people, the tribe has two mysterious and unattainable places, one is the academy and the other is the presbyterian church, and most of the people who are qualified to enter and leave here are either rich or noble, and their identities are extraordinary.
"You're the tower that set fire to the board?" In the school office, an old cow with a thick white beard and a wrinkled face asked coldly, this is the respected teacher Bai, who called the iron tower in to lecture before entering the classroom, making it clear that he wanted to give this bad boy a dismount.
"It's me." The tone of the tower is not very good, it has been so long since this incident, why is he still in his heart? It's clearly biased against me.
"Don't think that if you have a leader to intercede, you can disobey the rules of the school, if you don't obey, I'll still drive you away, I don't want a grain of mouse poop to spoil a pot of soup." Teacher Bai spat and splashed stars.
The tower looked out the window, the old guy didn't listen to what he said, he didn't have any good feelings for him, if he was polite, it would be fine, I didn't expect it to be the same as relying on the old and selling the old, I don't want to buy his account.
"It's stubborn." Teacher Bai was so angry that he blew his beard and glared at him, and this mountain gave me another problem.
"When! While! The bell rang, and the calves reluctantly entered the classroom.
"Students, we have a new classmate today, and we will get closer to each other in the future. Tower, you sit with Black Cloud. Teacher Bai introduced expressionlessly.
All the students were taken aback, the name of the tower was a household name in the Mara tribe, and the parents used him as a negative teaching material, and if their children were disobedient, they would teach them this: "Do you want to be a bad person like the tower?" Killing people and setting fires at a young age, such a person is destined to be useless for the rest of his life. β
Watching the tower walk by, the students all consciously shrank back, as if there was something dirty on him.
There are only two exceptions, one is Black Cloud and the other is Little Flower.
Xiaohua stared at the tower with a pair of beautiful eyes, and he hadn't seen him grow taller and stronger for a year. She hadn't seen him since that chance encounter at school, and of course Xiaohua knew that the boy was deliberately avoiding herself, why did he do this? Is he still angry that I revealed his identity that day? Thinking of this, Xiaohua's face turned red inexplicably, she had never been so sad for a boy, what was going on?
"Atta, sit!" Kuroyun wiped the already clean stool with his hands again, and then took his bag with a grin.
"Heiyun, you can answer this question." Teacher Bai saw it in his eyes and was angry in his heart, picked up the chalk and wrote a question on the blackboard, and deliberately named Heiyun's name, this kid lives under the same roof as the iron tower, and it is not a good thing, he follows the mountain butt all day long, and the mountain is short and short, with a courteous face like a pug wagging his tail and begging for mercy, but secretly he broke his book painting brush, thinking that he was doing it without knowing it, but he didn't know that it was all in the eyes of the old man, if he wasn't the son of Heifeng, I would have told him to get out.
Heiyun didn't expect his impression in Teacher Bai's mind to be so unbearable, and thought it was a normal answering session, so he walked up and was dumbfounded, he hadn't learned this question at all, where would he do it?
"You can't have such a simple question, are you a pig brain!" Teacher Bai was angry.
"Teacher, you haven't taught this question at all." Black clouds defend themselves.
"Yes, I really haven't taught this question." Teacher Bai shouted, "But the formula for answering the question is in the next unit, and yesterday I asked you to go back to preview, as long as you have seen it, you will definitely be able to make it." β
"But ......"
"Don't talk about those objective reasons, don't read the book carefully, forget it, don't listen to the teacher's teachings, call your father to the school tomorrow."
The black cloud face is like dead ashes, and this fried meat with bamboo shoots can't run away.
The clay man still has three points of anger, this old guy is so domineering, the tower finally can't help it, but angry is angry, and the problem has to be solved. He walked to the blackboard and saw that this was a very complicated equation, which was indeed very difficult, and it was understandable that Ah Yun couldn't do it.
"What are you doing here? I didn't call you, there are no rules at all. Teacher Bai's face sank.
The tower ignored him, turned his head and found that there was a big stone mill on the playground, and the manhole cover was so thick, it was estimated that it was not less than 300 catties. "There it is!" Tie Ta smiled evilly, walked over and effortlessly hugged Shi Mo to Teacher Bai's side, "Teacher, can you hold it?" There was a clear hint of provocation in his tone.
All the students were stunned, and Teacher Bai was even more surprised, "How can I hold it so heavy?" β
"Then why can I hold it?" The tower teased.
"Everyone's abilities are different, what you can do is not necessarily what I can do, and you may not be able to do what I can do." Mr. Bai is worthy of being a teacher, and the level of debate is quite high.
"So you know this truth!" Tie Ta said solemnly, he didn't care that Teacher Bai was the only teacher of the Mara tribe, he was highly respected and respected, "Of course it is easy to solve this problem with your knowledge, but Heiyun is just a student, how can you demand him by your own standards?" β
Teacher Bai was dumbfounded by the iron tower, and after thinking for a long time, he said angrily: "I am a Sven person, and the rough work of moving stone grinding is not my job, and I don't bother to do it." β
It's really a dead duck with a hard mouth, since you claim to be a Sven, then I'll test you in my debut question to see if you have anything else to say. Tie Ta sneered, and wrote a question on the blackboard casually, "There are pheasants and rabbits in the same cage today, with thirty-five heads on it and ninety-four feet on the bottom. β
"Teacher, this should be your job! Please solve it, so that we students can have a long experience. The tower said lightly.
Teacher Bai's face was flushed, standing in front of the blackboard for a long time with a cup of tea, this is an arithmetic problem from Huaxia, which was carefully prepared for him by the iron tower, in order to see his jokes, the difficulty can be imagined, even if the old guy goes to study for another ten or eight years, he can't answer.
"Solve it, solve it!" Xiaoshan whistled, his fox friends and dogs also coaxed, and the classroom was in a commotion, and it was a great pleasure for these bad students to embarrass Teacher Bai.
"Dare to confront Teacher Bai in front of him, and make him disgraced, this guy has the guts, I will accept him after class." Xiaoshan thought proudly.
Tie Ta smiled slightly, picked up the chalk and wrote down the process and results of the operation three times and divided by two, "Teacher, am I answering this correctly?" β
His tone was very respectful, but to Mr. Bai's ears, it was tantamount to a slap in the face, "You...... Are you here to humiliate me? β
Humiliating you? I'm not that bored! My time is precious. Tie Ta smiled: "Teacher, you urge us to study hard, this is not wrong!" However, learning should also pay attention to methods and methods, pay attention to the combination of work and rest, and follow the good path. Blindly reading dead books and exerting rough pressure will not only fail to learn knowledge, but will ruin everyone's interest in learning, and it will be too late to regret it at that time. This is the learning method that Lao Ma taught to the iron tower, and now he has copied it word for word.
Am I really wrong? Teacher Bai held his head in his hands, squatted on the ground and pondered, after a long time, he finally figured it out, and said ashamedly: "You are right, thank you for reminding me, I will correct it in the future." And I want to apologize to you, I've always looked at people with colored glasses, thinking that you were a bad boy if you made a mistake, and now it turns out that I was wrong, I'm sorry! He bowed deeply.
"Great, we're finally liberated." There was a cheer in the classroom, Teacher Bai's tough style The students dare not speak out, and gradually they are full of fear of the school.
"You can change your mistakes, dare to do it, it turns out that Mr. Bai is not a very unreasonable person, it seems that he has to review it." Iron Tower said in his heart.
"Teacher, do I have to ask for parents tomorrow?" Black Cloud asked weakly.
"If your dad is free, it doesn't matter if you come here, the teacher also hides a bottle of good wine, but he brings snacks." Teacher Bai said very seriously.
The students were all laughing, where had they ever seen Teacher Bai so humorous!
"Teacher, I want to take a leave of absence." After class, Tie Ta whispered to Teacher Bai.
"What is the reason?" Teacher Bai asked.
"I ...... I ......" Tie Ta scratched his head and didn't know how to speak, I can't say that Teacher, your class is too naΓ―ve, it hurts Teacher Bai's self-esteem too much, but how can you practice if you don't ask for leave?
"Iron Tower, you're one of the smartest students I've ever met." Teacher Bai said, "I am self-aware, old man, in fact, your knowledge has far surpassed mine, and staying here will only delay your time." Okay, give the teacher a face, you come to the school once a week, okay? Lao Xiucai pleaded.
"Okay! Then I'm gone. Tie Ta was so happy that he almost jumped up, and he suddenly realized that Teacher Bai was actually quite cute.
"Tower, stop!" finally waited for Teacher Bai to leave, and Xiaoshan chased after him with someone.
"What's the matter?" The head of the tower does not look back and continues to move forward, now is not the past, if they still want to bully more and less, then they don't mind letting them suffer a little.
"Shan Shao asked if you would be interested in joining our club." The second dog barked.
"Not interested." Tie Ta said coldly, this group of losers are not good at reading, all they think about all day long is to fight and bully their classmates, and they also talk about the club, they really think they are the underworld!
"How do you speak? It's rude. Xiaoshan glared at him and said with a smile: "Iron Tower, as long as you nod, the position of the second leader of the Taurus Gang is yours." β
"Did you finish? After saying that, quickly get out of the way. "The tower is too lazy to talk nonsense with them.
"Shan Shao's invitation dares to refuse, it's really ignorant of lifting." As soon as the third cannon finished speaking, he was slapped on the head.
"It's called having a personality, you know? This is usually the case for people who have the ability. Xiao Shan's face was adoring, he suddenly had a strange idea, even he himself was a little surprised, at this moment he really wanted to be the little brother of the iron tower!
When I returned home in the evening, the tower collected the herbs I had picked yesterday, and after two days of exposure, they had dried completely, and they could also come in handy. He picked out more than a dozen herbs such as Qing Banxia, Codonopsis, Coptis chinensis, and male cloves, and then added a piece of ginger, stuffed it into a medicine jar and slowly boiled it over a simmer. Aunt Yu often has a stomachache, and that Hu Banxian is a bowl of fragrant ash water every time except for dancing the great god, and there is not even a single herb, isn't this a grass for human life? Tie Ta has studied medical skills for so long, and has done his best to pass on the true inheritance of Lao Ma, and it can be seen at a glance that she has a stomach disease, which can cure spleen and stomach deficiency and cold, and it is not surprising that after six doses of medicine, the root of the disease can be completely broken.
"Aunt Yu, drink this bowl of medicine!"
"I'm not sick, what kind of medicine do I drink?" Although she said this, Yu Niang still drank it without hesitation, Xiao Ta is more filial than Xiao Yun, and he will definitely not harm me.
