Concealed sultry

After cutting the patient's pulse, Gu Huairen put down his hand: "The pulse condition is still stable, and your illness has been cured, but you should be careful not to eat too much cold food in the future. How about this, I will give you another prescription, You need two days to consolidate it." Picking up a brush and dipping it in ink, Gu Huairen began to write freely, and after finishing writing, he blew gently and handed it to the patient.

"Thank you, Mr. Gu." The patient took the prescription, stood up and went directly to the counter next to him to get the medicine.

Behind the long wooden counter, there are several pharmacy assistants in long gowns coming and going. Behind them is a long cabinet full of small boxes. The clerks took the prescriptions from the customers, and after looking at them, Spread out sheets of yellowed paper on the long counter, weigh the medicinal materials with a small scale and pour them on the paper, then wrap them skillfully and hand them to the patient.

Neither the customer nor the waiter noticed a child lying on the counter. This Chinese medicine shop is all antique from the inside to the outside, and all the necessary modern traces are cleverly hidden, so there are often small children. Children are curious to come here to play, as long as they don't disturb their business, the store doesn't care.

It was for this reason that Lu Ning chose the Tong X Hall from among the few well-known Chinese medicine shops.The owner of this store is Mr. Gu Huairen, who has a high status in the Chinese medicine field. Lu Ning has found out that Mr. Gu will sit in the hall for four days a week. Due to the antique design, the position of the old man There happened to be a pillar next to it, and every time Lu Ning used the cover of this pillar to pretend to play, and then eavesdropped on the old man's diagnosis, and then followed the patient to see his prescription.

With his photographic memory and some Chinese medicine books he read before, he can be regarded as memorizing prescriptions for many diseases, but the more he remembers, the more uncertain Lu Ning is, because sometimes the same disease, The prescriptions or dosages prescribed by the old man are different.He also understands that traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes the reality of each individual patient. For the same disease, there may be a thousand prescriptions for a thousand people.If it is not a master professor, self-study is definitely not enough.

In Tong X Hall, Lu Ning took advantage of the fact that he was a child, and heard a lot of gossip. For example, the old Mr. Gu Huairen only accepted twelve direct students. After the old man's 80th birthday passed, the old man never taught anyone medical skills again. It seems that he has the intention to stop teaching medicine. Although he didn't say it clearly, all those who asked the old man to be his teacher these years have been rejected. up.

Hearing this, Lu Ning's heart skipped a beat. After two weeks of continuous observation, he really admired the old man's medical skills. Within these two weeks, he gave the old man a gift to thank him for curing himself There is an endless stream of sick patients. There is a shopkeeper in Tong X Hall who is responsible for receiving such people. Lu Ning has also heard many stories of old gentlemen who used medicine like gods.Lu Ning, who was thinking about being a teacher, was heartbroken when he heard that the old man didn't seem to have any plans to accept apprentices.

However, this does not mean that Lu Ning gave up. As the saying goes, if there is no opportunity, we must create an opportunity.After thinking about it, Lu Ning decided to take a risk.If he could make the old man look at him differently, maybe, the old man would accept him. What he can rely on now is the knowledge of the medicinal materials he remembered before and the prescriptions he remembered in the past two weeks.

After making up his mind, Lu Ning began to carefully observe the counter for dispensing medicine. The counter is made of black lacquered wood. The long counter and the wall form a flat and long "mouth". The entrance and exit are the same as the counter. The tall wooden door is usually not locked when taking medicine during the day, and it is convenient to go back and forth to get medicine.Relying on his small size, Lu Ning sneaked in while the assistant was busy.

Apart from the calculations in his heart, Lu Ning had only read most of the medicinal materials in books, and he happened to take this opportunity to see the actual products.I don't know if the guy is too busy or Lu Ning is too small and the position is not very conspicuous. No one came to see him after 10 minutes. Carefully opened the medicine cabinets, picked up some to observe carefully, then smelled them, and verified them with the knowledge in my mind one by one.In this way, Lu Ning at the counter naturally did not see the person who was slowly walking into the Chinese medicine shop.

As soon as Feng Wu walked into the Tong X hall, the shopkeeper in the lobby rushed up when he saw others, because he often dispensed medicine for the old man, and the shopkeeper in the lobby was very familiar with the young master who was the most favored of the Feng family, and besides, it was time to fetch medicine for the old man It's time.

Feng Wu looked at Mr. Gu who was seeing people, and asked naturally: "Master Xu, how many patients are there today?"

Shopkeeper Xu gave a smiling face: "It's not much, and there is no emergency. The old man said that whenever Mr. Feng comes, just go there."

"Yes. I see." Feng Wu nodded, but his legs didn't move. The old man was seeing a doctor. Even with this explanation, Feng Wu waited politely until the patient got up. Walked to Mr. Gu and called out: "Mr. Gu."

"Ah, ah Wu is here. Sit down, come on, sit down." Mr. Gu looked up to see Feng Wu, very happy, "How is Brother Feng's body now?"

"Grandpa is much better after taking the medicine you prescribed. In addition to grabbing the medicine this time, I still want to ask Mr. to go there in person. Grandpa said that if he can't stand the wind now, he must come by himself." Feng Wu in front of Mr. Gu A little more respect, in addition to the seniority of the other party, the old gentleman has a noble character and saved countless lives, which is also the reason why Feng Wu respects him.

After hearing Feng Wu's words, Mr. Gu waved his hands again and again: "Why do you come here in person! After I finish watching these patients, I will go to your house with you! Just trouble, Wu will wait for me for a while."

"Sir, you are being polite, as it should be." Feng Wu said with a smile.

The old man nodded, and just about to say something, he heard a burst of crying from the counter, which was also mixed with the yelling and dissuading voices of the counter staff.

Mr. Gu frowned, and said to Feng Wu: "Ah Wu, wait, I'll go and see what's going on."

Feng Wu thought for a while, and said, "I'll go with you." Why did that child's voice seem familiar?It seemed a bit like Lu Ning, Feng Wu couldn't help speeding up his pace when he thought of Chen Yiyan's words that Lu Ning always didn't go to class recently and didn't know where to go.

As soon as he walked to the edge of the counter, taking advantage of his height, Feng Wu could easily see the little kid dodging the hand extended by the waiter in the not-so-large counter. There were tears on the little guy's face, gloves and so on. He didn't bring any of them, and the two guys were surrounding him, seeming to try to get him out of the counter, almost grabbing his hand several times.

Knowing that Lu Ning has skin contact barriers, Feng Wu hastily stepped forward to stop him: "Stop, don't touch him!"

As soon as the guys stopped drinking, they looked back instinctively, and happened to see Mr. Gu standing next to him, and immediately stood still.Lu Ning also looked up and saw Feng Wu, he was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head in embarrassment and wiped away the tears from his face.Although his body is still small, in Lu Ning's heart he is still a 27-year-old boy, it's okay to cry in front of people he doesn't know, but when he meets an acquaintance and let others see him like this, Lu Ning feels really ashamed .

Feng Wuke didn't care about this, he walked into the counter himself, and carried him out carefully not to touch Lu Ning's skin.

Mr. Gu saw it: "Ah Wu, do you know this kid?" He still had an impression of this kid. For two weeks in a row, he could see this kid every day when he sat in the classroom, often lying on his stomach on the medicine counter. Look, he doesn't speak, and he will walk away when he gets in the way, so no one has ever taken care of him, why is he in the medicine cabinet today?

"Well, his name is Lu Ning, and he's one of my little friends." Outside the counter, Lu Ning struggled to get down from Feng Wu's arms, Feng Wu didn't force him, and put Lu Ning on the ground.

Looking at the tear stains on the child's face, Mr. Gu was a little angry, but he had already explained that he was not allowed to embarrass the child who had finished: "What's going on?"

Seeing that the old man was a little displeased, the guy was also very wronged: "We are busy, this kid got into the counter for some reason, and even opened the medicine box to play around with the medicine in it. I want him to go out, but he doesn't want to." Listen, we have no choice but to take him out, but as soon as I stretched out my hand, he hid everywhere, and then I called Ah Kuan to help, but unexpectedly, he cried."

After hearing what the buddy said, Mr. Gu's complexion improved a bit. If so, the buddy is right.

Looking at the little guy with his head down, Mr. Gu squatted down, and said kindly, "Xiao Lu Ning, the medicine inside is for people to see a doctor, so you can't just grab it and play with it."

"I'm not just playing around..." Lu Ning said in a low voice, Mr. Gu was amused by Lu Ning's rebuttal: "Then what do you do?"

"I know those medicinal materials. I read them in books, and I just wanted to see the truth. I put them back after reading them, so I didn't mess them up, really!" Lu Ning explained eagerly, and then smiled embarrassedly Laughing, "I didn't intend to make trouble, sorry."

"Do you know?" Mr. Gu was really interested. This small child, who looked only three or four years old, actually said that he knew the medicinal materials in it, "Then I will test you. If you are correct, I will I'll let you in."

"Really?" Lu Ning said excitedly, there is a door!
