Longfu Village.
This is Zhou Chen's hometown.
It was summer vacation, and Zhou Chen took the high-speed train back to the village.
"grandfather!"
The Zhou family's old house is a wooden house that has not been renovated.
Originally, Zhou Xiang planned to demolish the wooden house and build a self-built house in the countryside.
But Zhou Guangxi, the old man, was nostalgic, so he didn't dare to touch anything, for fear that the old man would scold others.
The sun was shining brightly today. Zhou Guangxi was lying under the ginkgo tree in the yard to enjoy the cool air, humming a tune and squinting his eyes.
Hearing Zhou Chen's voice, Zhou Guangxi stood up quickly.
"Oh, my good grandson and granddaughter are back!"
Zhou Guangxi quickly pulled Zhou Chen and Zhou Xiaoyan into the house to greet them, and then went to the well in the yard to fish out a watermelon.
Unlike Zhou Xiang, Zhou Guangxi, as a member of the older generation, has a strong preference for boys over girls.
So he is not so enthusiastic about Zhou Xiaoyan.
Of course, but relatively speaking, Zhou Guangxi naturally values his granddaughter.
But who knows that Zhou Chen is the heir of a single line of the Zhou family, and he plans to pass on all his medical skills to Zhou Chen.
The former Zhou Chen was too playful and in love, so he was not interested in medical skills.
This is right, after all, the boring traditional Chinese medicine requires a lot of time to practice, which is a bit unbearable for young people.
"Come on, come on, we haven't seen each other for so long, let grandpa take a look at your pulse."
As a rural barefoot miracle doctor, Zhou Guangxi's medical skills are extremely advanced.
Even some wealthy people from Hong Kong and Macao have come to visit.
If Zhou Guangxi didn't charge high medical fees, Zhou Chen's family would at least live in a luxurious villa.
But he is not free, he needs the rich to repay with the best Chinese medicinal materials.
Zhou Guangxi is over eighty years old this year, but his face is ruddy and he still has black hair, which shows his ability to maintain good health.
First, he felt Zhou Xiaoyan's pulse and closed his eyes slightly.
"Staying up late has been a bit serious lately. Starting today at 2:30 pm, I have to go to bed."
"You've been picky about food lately and don't eat vegetables, right? Go to the vegetable patch in the yard later to pick some vegetables you want to eat. Grandpa will cook them for you at noon."
Not long after, Zhou Guangxi frowned slightly, as if he knew something bad by checking his pulse.
I am not afraid that Western medicine doctors will smile, but I am afraid that Chinese medicine doctors will have low eyebrows.
Zhou Chen's heart tightened: "Grandpa, what's wrong?"
Zhou Guangxi shook his head slightly: "It's okay, it's your turn. Stretch out your hand."
The moment Zhou Guangxi's fingers touched Zhou Chen's pulse, his cloudy old eyes burst into light.
"Your spiritual veins..."
Zhou Guangxi showed disbelief, even horror.
"Xiaochen, follow me into the back room."
As soon as Zhou Chen saw this scene, he knew that his secret might be discovered by his grandfather.
"Xiao Chen, tell me, what's going on with your spiritual veins? Grandpa, I've been practicing medicine since I was a child, and I've never seen such a powerful spiritual vein, which is equivalent to the strength of the spiritual veins of dozens or hundreds of ordinary people."
"I heard from your dad that you became the top scorer in the national college entrance examination, which must be related to this."
Zhou Chen was a little curious: "What is the spiritual vein?"
Zhou Guangxi replied: "The spiritual vein is connected to a person's soul. The stronger the spiritual vein, the stronger the person's soul."
"Generally speaking, the strength of an adult man's spiritual veins is like a trickle, gentle but continuous."
"But the strength of your spiritual veins is like a vast ocean, far exceeding that of ordinary people."
Zhou Chen understood.
It seems that Chinese medicine is indeed profound and profound. Even the strength of one's soul at the ninth level of Qi refining can be known by taking one's pulse.
This further strengthened Zhou Chen's idea of learning Chinese medicine, which would become a great tool for him to travel in the city.
Zhou Chen stood up and knelt in front of Zhou Guangxi.
"Grandpa, this is my secret. I will tell you when the time is right."
Zhou Guangxi was stunned: "Everyone has secrets, and grandpa won't force you to say, why are you kneeling down? Get up quickly!"
Zhou Chen kowtowed his head to the ground: "Grandpa, I want to pass on the medical skills of our Zhou family and inherit the Yanhuang treasures that my father never passed down!"
Zhou Guangxi stood up, couldn't help laughing heartily, and shed two lines of clear tears from his cloudy old eyes.
"Ancestors, as long as Chen'er is here, the inheritance of my old Zhou family cannot be ended!"
The older generation values inheritance most, and regards inheritance as more important than their own lives.
However, Zhou Xiang failed to live up to his expectations. It took him so long to learn the medical skills of orthopedics.
Zhou Guangxi is confident that with the strength of his grandson's spiritual veins, the speed at which he can learn any knowledge is much faster than that of ordinary people.
Spiritual pulse is directly linked to a person's intelligence.
For such a powerful spiritual vein, I am afraid that photographic memory and ten lines at a glance will become adjectives.
"Okay, okay, I will study traditional Chinese medicine with grandpa this summer vacation and see how big a surprise you can bring to grandpa." Zhou Guangxi quickly helped Zhou Chen up.
This is his own grandson, and he has perfectly overcome the old-fashioned idea of not passing on the information from person to person, and not from male to female.
Before walking out of the back room, Zhou Chen was a little curious: "Grandpa, what did you find when you took Xiaoyan's pulse before? Is there nothing serious wrong with her?"
Zhou Guangxi stroked his beard: "This little girl has reached puberty, and she watches some unhealthy things. I am an elder, and it is difficult to talk about this kind of topic. As an elder brother, if you have the opportunity, you can remind her in subtle ways."
Zhou Chen suddenly felt his scalp numb. Is this the top Chinese doctor with the title of Barefoot Miracle Doctor?
Even knowing this kind of thing by checking your pulse is simply terrifying!
In the next month, Zhou Chen has been studying theoretical knowledge from medical books, such as the famous ancient treatises "Treatise on Febrile Diseases and Miscellaneous Diseases", "Compendium of Materia Medica", "Huangdi Nei and Wai Jing" and so on.
There are also basic contents such as acupuncture and identifying traditional Chinese medicine.
Coupled with Zhou Guangxi's one-on-one guidance to Zhou Chen, the progress has been rapid.
Soon August came, and Zhou Chen had already stored most of the theoretical knowledge in his mind. He would not memorize it today and forget it tomorrow.
And it can also identify most Chinese medicinal materials, except for a few rare medicinal materials.
The next step is acupuncture.
With Zhou Chen's terrifying psychological quality, his face didn't turn red, his heart didn't beat, and his hands didn't shake during the acupuncture, so he was very stable.
As well as some other basic skills of traditional Chinese medicine, Zhou Chen has basically mastered them all.
And in the coming August, it’s time to put it into practice.
Zhou Xiaoyan recovered her health within this month and returned to her peak condition. She just tanned a little and looked healthier.
I have finished all my summer homework, so I can have fun for a month.
As for Zhou Xiaoyan, Zhou Guangxi did not leave him idle. He taught her a complete set of Tai Chi so that she could easily deal with gangsters in the future.
This is necessary. After all, both Zhou Xiaoyan and Zhou Yuting inherited their mother Liu Shurong's good looks. Even if they are not school beauties, they are also class beauties.
Zhou Chen, however, inherited the looks of the old Zhou family. He was quite regular, his skin was not that white, and he didn't have the so-called sharp eyebrows, starry eyes, or sharp edges.
But it’s very eye-catching, and it’s the kind that gets better and better the more you look at it.
"Xiao Chen, you are going to the village for a medical consultation starting tomorrow. You have to watch and study hard. There may be some big shots coming by then, and you can get to know them more."
Zhou Chen scratched his head: "Don't you pursue fame and fortune?"
Zhou Guangxi stroked his beard: "What do you know, these big shots can get rare Chinese medicinal materials? Otherwise, where do you think the medicinal diet and medicinal wine that make you two brothers and sisters come from?"
There is really no need to say this. Zhou Chen saw Zhou Guangxi take out a large wooden box before, which contained an old ginseng that was at least a thousand years old. The roots were long and dense.
I only put a little bit of the stewed old hen in. After drinking it, I was sweating all night, my whole body was hot, and my breathing became longer.
No wonder Zhou Guangxi is in such good physical condition that it would be easy for him to live to be a hundred years old.
Zhou Chen couldn't help but think of Cai Yameng's grandfather, who was said to be dying.
I can only say that it doesn’t matter if you have power. If you don’t have a good body, you can only watch others enjoy it.
