Becoming a Taoist Master by Walking on the Underworld

Chapter 28 If You Don’t Do It, Who Will?
"last year?
Why?

Chen Yushu was stunned, and a name suddenly popped up in his mind.

He had now been in the pharmacy for several days, so he naturally knew the names of the four medical apprentices in the pharmacy.

The one who just became a medical apprentice last year was Xu Lihao, also known as Brother Hao, who was admired by many apprentices in Room No. 3.

“Last year, a genius emerged among our pharmacy apprentices.

Xu Lihao.

It takes seven days to get started with the standing meditation, and within a year you will have some basic success in the standing meditation.

At that time, he had just become an apprentice in decocting medicine.

Although he was at the bottom of the year-end assessment, he was still given an exception and accepted as an apprentice by Doctor Liu.

And this year.

You appear again.

More talented than Xu Lihao.

You can get started with the standing meditation within three days.

It is estimated that it will take less than a year to cultivate the standing meditation to a small level of success.

This is not a good thing for the apprentice who is confident of getting first place this year. "

As Xu San spoke, he couldn't help but glance at Chen Yushu with a half-smile.

Chen Yushu could not help but remain silent.

"Wang Kui and Lu Yuan are both outstanding among our apprentices in decoction, and they have the best hope of becoming the first in the year-end assessment.

Now that Manager Zhou has brought you here, it is normal for them to be hostile to you and unwilling to take you with them."

Xu San explained, "But I am different.

I can't get first place, but there are many benefits to leading people.

There is someone to share the work, and you can spend more time studying, practicing martial arts, drinking tea and chatting. Isn't it much more relaxing? "

Chen Yushu laughed, but felt a little grateful in his heart.

At least the other party is kind to me.

"Okay, let's get back to the topic.

Next, I will teach you everything I should teach you.

But you can’t do less work.”

Then, Xu San's face became serious, and he walked into the store from the backyard and began to explain, "Preparing and decocting medicine is actually very simple.

Generally, the doctor will write a list of medicinal ingredients, and you just need to pick them according to the list and then boil them in the firewood room.

But the prerequisite for all this is to recognize the medicine.

If you can't recognize the medicinal materials, you will prescribe the wrong medicine.

If the medicine is wrong, the decoction may become poison, or if the medicine is not suitable for the disease, it is also a very serious matter.

So, at first you have to learn to recognize medicines."

As he spoke, he quickly entered a side room in the medicine shop. There were some books in the side room. He searched for a while and quickly took out two books. He handed them to him and said, "Here are the Hundred Herbal Classics and the Complete Collection of Medicinal Materials. Take some time to familiarize yourself with them."

"Okay, Senior Brother Xu."

Chen Yushu nodded quickly and took the book.

“Don’t look at it now.

As a newcomer, it's always a good idea to be diligent. If you don't do the odd jobs and rough work, who will?

See those medicine-boiling stoves? Clean them one by one.

There is so much dust on the ground, we also need to clean it up..."

Xu San waved his hand, then pointed to a pile of medicine furnaces in the side room.

Seeing this, Chen Yushu nodded in response without refusing.

They all came from poor backgrounds, so working was nothing to them.

He entered the Liu Family Medicine Shop as an apprentice, not to enjoy himself. Being able to learn martial arts was already what he wanted, not to mention the unexpected surprise, he learned the inheritance of the Yin people, the method of cultivating immortals, the White Tiger Visualization Method.

Now that it was just some cleaning work, he naturally had no objection.

After some cleaning, half an hour passed, and then he was asked to sort the herbs one by one and put them in the medicine grids.

Because he had old medicinal materials for comparison, he did not make any mistakes, and he also got to know some medicinal materials through it.

Just when he had finished his work and wanted to relax, people started to come to the pharmacy to see a doctor, and then the doctor diagnosed the patient, prescribed medicine, and dispensed medicine...

Even though there are seven or eight apprentices decocting medicines and three or four medical apprentices in the pharmacy, the entire pharmacy is almost never idle when it is running.

It was not until near noon, when there were fewer patients, that the apprentices began to rest.

It was only at this time that Chen Yushu had time to lean aside and take out the Baicao Jing and the Complete Collection of Medicinal Materials to read.

Both books record the names of medicinal materials and their therapeutic effects. They can be regarded as popular science books, and some even have simple graphic illustrations.

Chen Yushu watched and memorized at the same time.

The afternoon was also spent in busyness.

He was busy almost the whole day.

In this way, for three consecutive days, he gradually became familiar with and adapted to the situation.

For Chen Yushu, the overall atmosphere among the many apprentices in the pharmacy is quite good.

Although Wang Kui and Lu Yuan had some prejudice against him to some extent, they did not target him deliberately. Manager Zhou, Doctor Liu and Doctor Jiao were not overly harsh people. Even if he made a mistake, they would only reprimand him slightly and would not be too harsh.

Sometimes, even when apprentices ask questions about medicinal materials and pharmacology, I can provide answers.

As for the drug store owner Su Ming, he only appeared in the store occasionally, and even if he did, he mostly stayed on the second floor and did not have much contact with them.

……

Call ~

As night fell, Chen Yushu was in the backyard, slowly practicing the standing meditation.

Each move is stretched naturally and coordinated with the breathing, bringing a unique frequency that affects the Qi and blood in the body, speeding up its flow.

If someone listened closely at this moment, they could even hear a slight sound of blood flowing from him.

Sudden.

Chen Yushu's body suddenly tensed up, and the blood vessels on the white and tender skin of his hands were exposed, surging one after another with a unique momentum.

Immediately afterwards, streams of sweat began to flow out.

Soon it covered his entire body, gathering little by little, and gradually condensed into drops of sweat like water drops.

"Each move of the Medicine King Posture has its own particularities, and combined with breathing techniques, it can exercise almost every corner of the body.

As the thirty-six stances are fully performed, the heat surges forth, which is the strongest and can also improve the physique of the practitioner to the greatest extent.”

Chen Yushu carefully experienced the feeling after practicing, and a hint of satisfaction appeared on his face.

He really enjoyed the feeling of sweating profusely after practicing.

Yaowang Zhuang Gong +1
Then he looked at the attribute panel.

Yaowang Zhuang Gong: Getting Started (56/100)

“It’s just a pity.

Today, I no longer have the nourishing effect of Yangyuan Soup, and the speed of my practice of Zhuang Gong has also slowed down.

Relying solely on the energy provided by three meals a day to practice, progress is too slow. "

Chen Yushu shook his head helplessly.

The practice of standing meditation should be carried out step by step. If you want to maximize the efficiency of standing meditation, you have to improve your level of standing meditation.

For example, when practicing Zhuanggong for the first time, the "heat" converted is only one strand, then when you are proficient, it is two strands, small success is four strands, big success is eight strands, and if it is perfect, there are sixteen strands...

The multiples increase, and the 'thermal' quality will gradually improve.

The 'heat' gained from cultivation at the time of perfection can be equivalent to several or even dozens of heat gained at the beginning.

The results of natural cultivation will also be completely different.
