Liu Changqing was taken aback.

Bajiquan is certainly not a closely guarded secret of the Yanwu Hall. Even the Zhuge family in Jinling knows it, and martial artists traveling in the Jianghu can also use Bajiquan.

He wouldn't be qualified to teach the two-finger-joined-hand technique from Yanwutang, but it's fine with Bajiquan.

Therefore, he felt that Chen Yuan's request was not excessive.

However, Bajiquan cannot be taught in a day or two, and at most he can only teach Chen Yuan some basic things.

After all, he came here with something to do.

I couldn't stay for too long.

"Then I thank you in advance, Brother Liu!"

Chen Yuan clasped his hands in a fist and said with a "sincere" expression.

In fact, he knew very well that the reason Liu Changqing's money was stolen was because of him, and that Old Man Wang's actions were actually helping him.

It allows him to learn Bajiquan.

"Brother Chen, you're too kind. If it weren't for you, I don't know how much more humiliated I would have been today!"

Liu Changqing gave a wry smile.

It's incredibly shameful for a disciple of the prestigious Yanwu Hall to have his money stolen by a pickpocket.

Fortunately, Chen Yuan stepped in and helped him pay off the debt; otherwise, he wouldn't know how he would have ended up today.

"Brother Liu, it's not your fault. After all, you can't be blamed for having your things stolen."

Chen Yuan suppressed a laugh and said.

Old Wang is still a bit too cunning.

"However, I need to go to Jishetang first to deliver a letter. Brother Chen, if you're willing, you can come with me to Jishetang first, and then I'll teach you Bajiquan."

Liu Changqing's expression turned serious.

He came here on his master's orders to deliver a message to Master Niu of Jishetang in Hangzhou.

I'll pick up some medicine while I'm at it.

"Jishetang?"

Upon hearing this, a strange look flashed across Chen Yuan's face.

Is Jishetang actually located in Hangzhou?

He had no idea that the legendary medical sect was also here.

Jishetang is no ordinary establishment.

After all, Duanmu Ying, one of the Thirty-Six Thieves in the comic, and Wang Zizhong, the great physician, both came from Jishetang.

Of course, according to the current timeline, it's unknown whether these two little ones have been born yet.

Even if it's born, it definitely won't be as big as him.

"Hehe, Brother Liu, since you put it that way, I'll go with you. I happen to have nothing to do anyway."

Chen Yuan smiled.

"In that case, Brother Chen, please come with me!"

Liu Changqing nodded, then turned around and took a step.

"Brother Liu, then I'll go with you."

Chen Yuan quickly followed.

"Brother Yuan, what do we do now?"

Several children couldn't help but shout.

"Erzhuang, Sanpao, I'm not playing with you guys today. I'll find you again tomorrow!"

Chen Yuan waved his little hand, leaving only his back view for the children.

A short while later.

Chen Yuan followed Liu Changqing to the entrance of an antique-style medical clinic. Above the door was a plaque with gold characters on a black background, bearing the four large characters "悬壶济世" (Hanging a gourd to save the world) in traditional Chinese characters.

Moreover, a yellow gourd was hanging in front of the door.

This can be considered a symbol of medical clinics during the Republic of China era.

During the Republican era, traditional Chinese medicine clinics were often called "medical halls", "medical residences", "clinics", "national medical halls", "pharmacy", or simply named after the doctor's surname, such as "Zhang's Medical Hall" and "Jishengtang".

The signboard is usually a wooden plaque with black background and gold lettering or red background and gold lettering, with the name of the clinic and the words "miraculous healing", "benevolent heart and skillful hands" and "the true transmission of traditional Chinese medicine", and is hung on the lintel.

Gourds are often hung in front of doors or inside rooms, symbolizing the practice of healing the sick and helping the world, or strings of bells are hung, representing itinerant doctors.

"This junior, Liu Changqing of Yanwu Hall, has come to pay his respects to Master Niu!"

Liu Changqing shouted, pulled a yellow envelope from his pocket, and stepped into the clinic.

"A disciple of Yanwu Hall?"

A bald, middle-aged man with kind eyes walked out of the clinic, exuding the air of an elder.

It was none other than Master Niu from the comics.

"It really is Master Niu!"

A hint of surprise flashed in Chen Yuan's eyes.

That's right.

It's Master Niu.

It seems this is indeed Jishetang.

"This young man is probably not a disciple of your Yanwu Hall, is he?"

Master Niu's eyes lit up, and he immediately looked at Chen Yuan.

The child in front of me was dressed in fine clothes and looked like a rich man's son.

Moreover, this child's eyes are shining brightly; he's a promising candidate for Qi cultivation.

In addition, he looks clever, so he should be good at studying medicine.

If he's not a disciple of Yanwu Hall, taking him into Jishi Hall would be a good option.

"Master Niu, this Brother Chen is my friend. We just met, and he really saved me from a terrible situation... This is how it is. Also, this is the letter my master gave you, and the medicine you prescribed for him, he's almost finished it."

So I'd like to ask you to get some more medicine. You know, my master's condition is so bad; without your medicine, he'd probably suffer terribly!

Liu Changqing recounted what had happened, then handed the letter in his hand to Master Niu.

"Your purse was stolen? Did this young boy pay for it? That boy is quite clever! Young friend, are you interested in medicine? If so, you can come to my Jishetang to learn. I will definitely teach you well and help you become a great master!"

Upon hearing Liu Changqing's words, Master Niu's eyes lit up again.

This child has an excellent temperament.

"Senior Niu, thank you for your kindness, but I have no interest in medicine!"

Chen Yuan coughed once.

Let him be a doctor, that's fine. Although Jishetang's methods are definitely related to Qi cultivation, it's not something he wants to learn at all.

"Really? That's a pity! Changqing, I'll get your master's medicine for you right now."

When Master Niu heard Chen Yuan's words, a look of disappointment flashed in his eyes.

What a pity.

This child has truly excellent potential.

"This Master Niu... Brother Chen didn't even agree to go to Yanwu Hall with me before, so why would he be interested in studying medicine? Most kids would definitely prefer martial arts."

Liu Changqing secretly complained to himself.

"By the way, Master Niu, could I borrow your backyard for a moment? I promised the young man I would teach him Bajiquan!"

Liu Changqing said with a forced smile.

"The backyard? That's fine. Since you promised your friend, and he helped you, it's only right. Take your friend there. There shouldn't be anyone there."

Master Niu nodded, then couldn't help but glance at Chen Yuan.

This child is indeed a promising individual with both inner and outer qualities. If he were to become a disciple of Longhu Mountain or Sanyi School, his achievements would likely be very high. It's a bit of a pity that he only learned Bajiquan.

"Brother Chen, then come with me to the backyard!"

Liu Changqing breathed a sigh of relief.

The saying goes, "The secrets of martial arts should not be passed on to six ears." Although Bajiquan is not a particularly powerful style of martial arts, it is still not appropriate to teach it in public. Therefore, we can use the space at Jishetang to teach Chen Yuan Bajiquan.

"Brother Liu, then I'll leave it to you!"

Chen Yuan smiled.

Finally, I can learn Bajiquan.

Chapter 15 A Born Prodigy

Liu Changqing and Chen Yuan arrived at the backyard of Jishetang. There was a wide open space there, and on one side of the yard was a weeping willow tree with several bees buzzing around collecting nectar.

"Brother Chen, I think you've already attained Qi. Although your physical body hasn't been tempered to the Foundation Establishment stage, it's still much stronger than that of an ordinary child. Learning the basics of this fist technique shouldn't be too difficult!"

Liu Changqing's eyes narrowed, and then he spoke.

He could sense the flow of Qi in Chen Yuan's body, though it was somewhat faint.

"I can't hide it from Brother Liu, I have indeed attained Qi."

A look of surprise flashed in Chen Yuan's eyes.

Liu Changqing could actually tell that he had already attained Qi; indeed, one should not underestimate the extraordinary people in this world.

He thought that ordinary people with supernatural abilities wouldn't be able to detect it.

"Since that's the case, then I won't waste any more words. Now I'll teach you the methods of Bajiquan. There are three basic elements to Bajiquan: stomping, exhaling, and generating power."
