Marvel's Tremor

Chapter 19 19. Learning Medicine
Li Zimu memorized the "Compendium of Materia Medica" for a day and did not bother the old Taoist priest anymore. In the evening, the old Taoist priest thought about it for a day and said to Li Zimu: "I have thought about it for my teacher. I will not only have to memorize it tomorrow, but also go with my teacher in the afternoon." Gather herbs, learn about medicinal materials, and don't use your abilities externally until you have developed your internal strength." The old Taoist said to Li Zimu solemnly.

Li Zimu was very confused and said, "Why do you still need to learn medical skills? Can't you just practice martial arts? And why can't you use supernatural powers?"

"Your ability is too easy to hurt yourself. It is good for you to learn medical skills. In the end, you have to use internal force to cover up the supernatural ability. The effects of the two are similar when hitting people. They also hurt internal organs. At most, internal force It's just a little strange, as long as you are not afraid of being caught and sliced, you can use it, and the old Taoist will treat you as an apprentice without you!" The old Taoist said, staring at Li Zimu with sharp eyes.

"How could it be! I listen to my master the most, and I will listen to whatever the master says!" Li Zimu said pretending to be obedient.

"Remember! Go down and rest early, you will be busy tomorrow." The old Taoist waved Li Zimu to go down, and suddenly remembered something and shouted to Li Zimu: "Oh! Apprentice, don't come to find me tomorrow morning. Teacher, in the morning we will recite the book and in the afternoon we will go gather medicine!"

Li Zimu turned his head and said to the old Taoist priest: "Know-know-la-!" Then he went out again.

"Hey! I don't know whether it will be a blessing or a curse in the future. Forget it, take one step at a time." The old Taoist priest looked at the sky and sighed, closed the window and went back to bed to discuss Taoism with Patriarch Sanqing.

The next day, the old Taoist finally got enough sleep and got up slowly, and then saw that Li Zimu was already reading in the yard, so he asked with concern: "How much have you learned?"

Without looking up, Li Zimu returned and said, "I've read half of it, and I basically remember it. I can finish it today, and I can remember everything after reading it again tomorrow."

Sweat immediately appeared on the old Taoist priest's head after hearing this: "What kind of evildoer is this? What can I teach after this learning progress! Forget it, maybe after all the teaching is over, I can relax and clean up by myself again." The old Taoist priest said beautifully. After thinking about it, he said to Li Zimu: "Come on, learn! I am optimistic about you as a teacher!"

"Understood, master!" Li Zimu stared at the book intently. He thought that he could learn martial arts immediately after finishing his medical skills, but it was not the case. The old Taoist priest also prepared other special gifts for him.The old Taoist priest was very pleased to see that Li Zimu was studying so seriously, so he went to wash up and have breakfast.

After lunch, I took a break and was dragged to collect herbs by the old Taoist leader, "You have to see clearly how the teacher collects herbs. Many medicine roots are not needed, some are, and some are only partially effective and the rest are poisonous. But it is also useful, but you can’t hang yourself up because of collecting herbs, so you should memorize the "Compendium of Materia Medica" and correspond to the real objects one by one." The old Taoist said to Li Zimu while collecting herbs seriously.

"Understood, master!" Li Zimu looked at it seriously, and then asked: "Master, how long will I have to learn this medical skill?"

The old Taoist digged the herbal medicine seriously and replied: "This is the basic, and you have to memorize the "Huangdi Neijing", "Qianjin Fang", and "Treatise on Febrile Diseases". After learning the basics, we will talk about other things."

"Ah! That's a lot! How long will it take to learn?" Li Zimu said dejectedly.

The old Taoist stood up and patted his body, then squatted down and said to Li Zimu: "You said that you want to protect everyone, first of all you have to take care of yourself, and if your parents are sick or something, you can directly treat them I am optimistic about you as a teacher." Now Li Zimu suddenly felt that the figure of this old Taoist priest had grown taller.The old Taoist actually thought in his heart: "Let's learn, learn, I have to give you some more medical books. Although I still read some of them, it shows how knowledgeable I am as the abbot. Who told you that you are so evil and you are too early to be a teacher?" You will be underestimated, and besides, you must learn more." If Li Zimu could hear the voice of the old Taoist leader, what kind of story would happen.

"Good master, let's continue to collect herbs!" Li Zimu suddenly became energetic, and there was a harmonious scene of an old man and a young man picking herbs on the mountain.
