The strongest medical saint in the city

Chapter 733 Sandalwood Box
Back to the sofa in the study, Mr. Li was holding a sandalwood box in his hand.

The box looks like the height of the palm and the length of the forearm. It should be the kind of dressing box for women in the old era.Li Lesheng held it as if he was holding the most precious thing.

Zhou You's hand grinding the medicine paused, waiting for the old man's next words.

"I probably haven't told you," the old man carefully put the box on the table, and then sat down on the sofa again, looked up at the doubt in Zhou You's eyes, and smiled involuntarily, as if he was feeling emotional, but also like He sighed: "Actually, if I hadn't seen Tongxin today, I would have almost forgotten it."

The old man stared at the sandalwood box on the table, and his eyes seemed to pass through the box and landed in the void.

Zhou You knew that it should be the deepest memory in the old man's heart.

"The old man seems to have an unforgettable past." Zhou You, who was slowly grinding the medicinal materials, thought in his heart.

Just as Zhou You watched the old man lose his mind and made up his mind to continue waiting, the old man sighed: "What I want Xiao You to see is the photos in this box."

Hearing what the old man said, Zhou You was just a little surprised, but when he saw the photo that the old man carefully took out, he couldn't help raising his eyebrows slightly.

"It looks like it." Satisfied with Zhou You's surprise, the old man asked with a nostalgic smile in his eyes.

You can’t blame Zhou You for being surprised. The photo looks like the product of the first-generation camera in the 50s and [-]s. Although it is treasured in the photo frame, you can still see the yellowing traces on the edge of the photo on the glass mirror, just like time. proof.

However, although the old photos are precious, what surprises Zhou You is the person in the photo. Although the clothes and expressions are different, they still look like a childlike innocence.

"This is..." Zhou You finally put down his hand pounding medicine and took over the photo frame.

In fact, if you look carefully, you can easily find that the people in the photos are not childlike.

"Old man, you never told me that you have such a big son." Zhou You was still looking at the person in the photo, and tentatively said something.

The person in the photo is standing under the phoenix tree, about 25 or [-] years old, with a temperament that absolutely does not have a childlike innocence. The epitome of the era dominated by traditional Chinese medicine.

To be honest, the person in the photo, because of his demeanor, is eight points away from the childlike innocence, but still somewhat similar to the old man. Of course, it refers to the temperament, that kind of calm and indifferent Chinese medicine.

Of course, if the person in the photo and Tong Xin were standing in front of Zhou You at the same time, people might think they were brothers or father and son, but just looking at the photo and comparing Tong Xin, there was only a slight resemblance.

"What nonsense are you talking about?" the old man was laughed at by Zhou Youqi: "That is the son of my old friend."

Zhou You thought about the old man's attitude, what he thought was wrong, he shook his head, curled his mouth and smiled and repeated: "Oh, old man?"

Hey, there is something wrong with this!Zhou You thief looked at the old man with a smile, and the way he winked made the old man shake his head and laugh.

"Actually, to be more precise, he is the son of the owner of this sandalwood box."

"Huh?" This is different from the plot I thought!

Zhou You thought it was the old man's son at first, but looking at his precious energy, it turned out that he was just keeping it for someone else?

"Xiao You," the old man fiddled with the sandalwood box, and asked Zhou You straight to the point, "Do you want to know this person?"

"Grandpa, you're playing tricks." Zhou You paused his head as he was about to nod, and then looked at Li Lesheng with a smile as if he had realized it.

"Xiaoyou, I've known you for so long, and I've never asked you anything," the old man smiled slightly sadly, and his hand holding the photo frame trembled slightly: "This is my old man's photo frame." Heart knot, decades, I thought I would bring it to the coffin, but I didn't expect..."

Zhou You pursed the corners of his lips with clear lines: "Old man, there are some things that make you feel more uncomfortable if you know them. The situation of childlike innocence is a bit special. How about this? You talk first. If you still want to know when the time comes, then I will also let you know." Just tell you."

"Special?" The old man was slightly startled, knowing that Zhou You said that, I'm afraid the origin of childlike innocence is not simple.After thinking about it again, no matter what, he has kept this past in his heart for such a long time, it's time to find someone who can tell it.

Zhou You added hot tea to the old man, picked up the herbs again, and grinded them lightly, without any intention of urging the old man to speak quickly.

"When I came into contact with Chinese medicine, I was a little less childlike than I am now." The old man took a sip of hot tea before slowly saying: "At that time, it was still an era of warlord chaos. Because of the chaotic current situation, people who really went to learn Chinese medicine , very few, after all, the common people are precarious, who would go to learn things that can’t fill their stomachs.”

Seeing Zhou You's quiet listening, the old man's expression changed from the sadness of memories to tranquility: "But that was also the era when a large number of talents came out, Xiao You, your medical skills are very good, and the medicine you make is also good, but I Have seen better."

"Is it pharmaceuticals? Or..." Zhou You suddenly became interested. As a famous Chinese medicine doctor, "Shen Nong Medical Classic" is already the best that Zhou You knows in his life. Maybe he hasn't learned two levels yet, but he believes that, The rest of my life is enough to study it carefully, but it is a matter of careful study, if there is someone who can give me some pointers.

Seeing Zhou You's earnest expression, the old man smiled without explaining, but continued: "I remember very clearly that it was a once-in-a-century heavy rain, the river mouth burst its embankment, and after the flood, there was almost no grain harvest. It can be said that they are starving to death."

"Seven and three major disasters?" Zhou You vaguely remembered that there seemed to be such a period of starvation in the history books.

"It's much more serious than the one in [-]. Speaking of which, I was also a master in that year, because my master was infected with the disease caused by floods. Before he died, my master gave this sandalwood box to He gave it to me, saying that it was going to be given to his daughter who was going out to study.”

It is rare for the old man to talk about the past. The old man recalled An Ran with a trace: "Master's daughter is a real doctor, and the doctor is kind-hearted. I admire and respect him even more. We have been mourning for Master for three years with her, and we often discuss medical skills."

"Hey, is the old man's first love?" Zhou You asked inattentively.

"She is in the teacher's school, and she has a lover. She is a person who can really spend all her family's wealth for her life."
