Chapter 12: Apprenticeship
When Shangguan Fei and the two of them ran to the thatched hut, the entire kitchen had already burned more than half, and when the two of them finally put out the fire, the whole thatched hut for cooking had burned to the bottom, and the whole person of the medicine king sat in the courtyard and looked at the place where he had been cooking in a daze, a face was as black as the bottom of the pot because of the smoke, Shangguan Fei stood next to the medicine king and did not speak, and his face was full of flowers like a big cat. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"Okay, don't stand stupidly, I don't blame you, I just feel sorry when I see the house I have lived in for many years burning, but fortunately I didn't burn down the one I live in, or I have to kill my old man, I didn't see that your kid was very powerful just now! Sure enough, the tiger father has no dogs!" Seeing Shangguan Fei standing in front of him with his head down and about to cry, the Medicine King said jokingly with a grin. It's just that because of the darkness on his face, this laugh feels worse than crying.
After hearing the words of the Medicine King, the expression on Shangguan Fei's face became a little better, and he quickly fetched some water for the Medicine King to wash his face, because the rice was also burned, so the two of them had to eat some dry food to satisfy their hunger, and went up the mountain to cut some bamboo and build a house again.
Time flies, in a blink of an eye, Shangguan Fei has been in the Valley of the Medicine King for more than three months, since the last time he cooked and burned the house, the Medicine King no longer dared to let Shangguan Fei cook, every time he thought that he not only had to help this little guy heal, but also cook and serve this guy, his heart was angry, and sometimes he even wondered if this little guy had set the house on fire.
After the medicine king took the big wooden barrel back, he would boil some hot water every night, and add something sticky and black to it, and then let Shangguan Fei jump in and soak it for an hour, not a moment. Not to mention, after taking a bath in a big wooden barrel during this time, Shangguan Fei felt that his physique had significantly enhanced, and the most significant manifestation was that this guy was able to eat better than before, and he didn't know if it was a psychological effect, and he felt a little less pain than before when he occasionally got sick. Every time he saw Shangguan Fei eating and gobbling up, the medicine king twitched and said that Shangguan Fei could eat better than a pig. Looking at that expression, it was as if the food he ate was eating his meat, although his face was very distressed and shouted that Shangguan Fei ate too much, the medicine king still made a lot of delicious food every day, and felt that the food was getting better and better. The more moved Shangguan Fei looked at the old man, the more pleasing it became. In addition to taking a bath every day, the medicine king will also teach Shangguan Fei to read and write, and will throw some medical and human acupuncture points to Shangguan Fei, so that this guy himself slowly tries to understand, every time he sees this guy reading a book like a ghost drawing a talisman to jump there, the medicine king will laugh, in addition to Shangguan Fei will also walk on the simple nine-palace plum blossom pile for an hour every day.
Shangguan Fei was regarded as a treasure at the beginning, and the stone was taken by the medicine king to take a look, and the medicine king told him that it was a very ordinary stone, this kind of stone is called cold jade, which is not of much use except that it is very cool to the touch and can cool down in summer, there are many in Shenyue Lake, and there will even be dozens or even hundreds of catties at the bottom of Shenyue Lake. The Medicine King had no choice but to take him to the lake of Shenyue Lake and touched a lot, and Shangguan Fei admitted that he was just happy for nothing, and this stone was not a treasure. Even so, Shangguan Fei also strung this small stone with a rope and hung it around his neck, because his physique was hot, and it felt very refreshing to bring this thing. As for why the lake is called Shenyue Lake, Shangguan Fei asked the medicine king, and the medicine king refused to say vaguely, and once again Shangguan Fei kept chasing and asking, and when he asked in a hurry, the medicine king would say with a black face Why are there so many children in Shangguan Fei, and why, can't you know that it is Shenyue Lake. But Shangguan Fei knew that there must be some story to the name of this lake, because as long as the medicine king was free, he would definitely go to the lake and sit on the stones in a daze. Every time the medicine king went to the lake, Shangguan Fei would secretly follow, because the medicine king's expression by the lake was very rich, sometimes happy and sometimes sad, and people who didn't know thought that the medicine king by the lake was a fool.
In the few months that Shangguan Fei came to live in the mountains, except for a few days when Shangguan Long and Dongfang Wan'er came to the valley to see the children and brought some silver and Shangguan Fei's winter clothes, Shangguan Fei never saw anyone come to the grass hut again. So after these three months of running-in period, this pair of old and young people get along with each other no longer like at the beginning of the conversation, the more they look at each other, the more pleasing they feel, especially the medicine king, when he sees Shangguan Fei's elf energy, he is overjoyed, and he has the heart to accept the apprentices. But from time to time, the sound of banging and bickering still comes from this grass hut.
After eating early that morning, the medicine king called Shangguan Fei to his side and said, "Fei'er, when you first came, your body and bones were very weak, and you were not familiar with this place, take you up the mountain, I am afraid that your body and bones will not be able to bear it, and I don't worry about leaving you here, so I have not dared to go up the mountain to pick herbs in the past few months, and your body has improved significantly after these months of conditioning." Now it is already late autumn, and it is estimated that the mountain will be closed by heavy snow if you don't go up the mountain, and then it is not easy to find any herbs, these herbs are the basic guarantee for us to treat diseases and save people's lives, or how can the old man have the money to make those delicious foods for you. So the old man is going to go into the mountains to pick some herbs, now you can take care of yourself alone, I can rest assured that I have been in the mountains for a few days, if you want to follow me up the mountain, you can also see what you plan?"
"Uncle, then I'll follow you up the mountain to pick medicine! I can also carry a medicine basket, just so you taught me how to know herbs and how to pick them?" Hearing the medicine king say this, Shangguan Fei was very moved, it turned out that the medicine king had not gone to collect medicine because of himself in the past few months.
"Fei'er, do you want to study medicine? I see that you are so clever and have a talent for studying medicine, if you want to, I will take you as an apprentice and take you up the mountain to teach you by the way, and it will save you from calling me this every day, it sounds awkward, I can't listen to the old man or something, they all call me old." But you have to think about it, I didn't say anything about confiscating you as an apprentice before, but now I tell you, if you become my apprentice, no matter what happens in the future, you must practice the style of a doctor to relieve the suffering of the people, and you must not use the medical skills taught by the teacher to do those harmful things. After hearing Shangguan Fei's words, the Medicine King asked.
I have always dreamed of becoming a miracle doctor who heals the sick and saves people, and I think about it is majestic, so I will call you Master in the future! I will listen to Master's teachings and never do anything that hurts heaven and reason. After speaking, Shangguan Fei knelt down.
