"The five internal organs refer to the heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys. The six internal organs refer to the stomach, gallbladder, triple burner, bladder, large intestine, and small intestine. It is a cycle in the body. As long as a certain part of the body feels uncomfortable, , will cause physical discomfort.”
Chen Hongjing walked back and forth alone in the courtyard in front of the dormitory, carefully recalling what the gentlemen had said in the study these past few days.
After his observations over the past few days, he roughly understood how the school operates. The school is divided into four departments. One is the study department. Their admissions are not based on time or regulations. If a teacher in the school accidentally falls in love with a child on the street, that child will have the opportunity to enter. School learning. In addition to this method, another method is to take the assessment of Ganshu City's Ten Great Halls, which is more difficult.
The second is the production department, which is the place where Chinese herbal medicines are grown and collected. It is also one of the places where students can identify Chinese herbal medicines and practice them.
The third department is the alchemy department, which mainly refines the collected Chinese herbal medicines into elixirs and rouge gouache. Finally, it is handed over to the last department, and the operations department can take it out and sell it.
A tall, fat man who walked very fast ran in. He was one of Chen Hongjing's two roommates, Fan Xiaoxi. A young man who has been at Licorice Hall for three years and has not even obtained the title of First Level Alchemist. If it were other students, it would be reasonable, but for Fan Xiaoxi, who has been in a medical family for generations and has at least two sixth-level alchemists in his family, it really can't be justified.
Fan Xiaoxi held the box and ran to the stone chair next to Chen Hongjing and sat down. He breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Oh, my dear mother, Hongjing, come over and help me take a look. I am refining this." The elixir turned out to be useless. I had already refined it according to Old Man Tang’s words. Why did I still get beaten so badly by that old woman? It’s really bad luck.”
Chen Hongjing stopped thinking, walked over, and said with a smile: "I have been here less than ten days, and I haven't even memorized what Master Tang asked us to memorize. How could I know what ingredients are missing in your elixir?"
Fan Xiaoxi nodded: "That's right, by the way, are you going to take Old Man Tang's class later? Take me with you by the way. After I listen to his class, I will go and ask what's wrong with my elixir." .Why can’t you help but pinch me like this?”
"By the way, Xiaoxi. That's it. I've wanted to ask you for a long time. How do students in our school graduate? Why do I see so many old students like you who have been here for a year or two? You can come and go freely in each classroom. Sometimes you go to the alchemy room to make elixirs, and sometimes you go up the mountain to pick herbs. Are there no graduation requirements?" Chen Hongjing asked.
Fan Xiaoxi shook his head: "There are no specific graduation conditions. Some of the uncles you see in the alchemy room now are our senior brothers. As for how to graduate, this depends on the master who brings you in. He needs to estimate where you can reach and where you can reach yourself, and then make a comprehensive assessment."
"At that time, it's up to you to make your own choice, whether to go out and work in the world on your own, or to stay in the school and continue working. It's all fine. You see, there are some students who don't even bother to take the title of a first-level alchemist. When I go out, I am worshiped by many dignitaries and help them extend their lifespan."
"As for myself, I have to become a Four Realm alchemist before I can leave. Otherwise, I will lose my life. No more, no more, go ahead and take a nap for a while. Remember to wake me up when class starts later. Ah. I’m so sleepy.”
Chen Hongjing looked at the box of pills placed on the stone table, picked up one, and placed it under the sky. He squinted and looked carefully, but he couldn't see any difference. I disdain the title of alchemist at that level, but I am one of the best doctors out there, and I really don’t have to worry about food and drink.
Fan Xiaoxi brought two or three books and put them on the table, put his head directly on them and fell asleep. Not only that, his snoring was louder and quieter. When Master Tang spoke, he would whisper. When Master Tang spoke, he would He started to get louder when there was silence or when other students stood up to answer questions.
Chen Hongjing was embarrassed beside him. He thought he would study seriously if he brought two or three books, but in the end, he could keep up with Master Tang's rhythm, becoming quiet and moving.
"Come on, Chen Hongjing, please answer. Which parts of the body are the internal organs?" Tang Turing asked.
"The five internal organs among the five internal organs refer to the heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys. The six internal organs refer to the small intestine, gallbladder, stomach, large intestine, bladder, and triple burner."
"The lungs and large intestine are connected, their essence is in the hair, their filling is in the skin, and their orifices are in the nose."
"The spleen and stomach are connected, their beauty is in the four white lips, their energy is in the muscles, and their orifices are opened in the mouth."
"The heart is connected with the small intestine, its beauty is in the face, its filling is in the blood vessels, and its opening is in the tongue."
"The liver and the gallbladder are related, their flower is in the claws, their charge is in the tendons, and their enlightenment is in the eyes."
“The kidneys and the bladder are connected, their flowers are in the hair, their charge is in the bones, and they open to the ears and two yin.” “The triple burner divides the chest and abdominal cavity in the human body into the upper burner, the middle burner, and the lower burner.
This is called triple burner. This is the origin of the internal organs. "
After hearing Chen Hongjing's questions and answers, Tang Turing nodded with satisfaction. He continued to ask: "The five elements correspond to which internal organs?"
"The five internal organs corresponding to gold are the lungs, and the six internal organs are the large intestine."
"The five elements corresponding to wood are the liver, and the six internal organs are the gallbladder."
"The five elements corresponding to water are the kidneys, and the six internal organs are the bladder."
"The five elements corresponding to fire are the heart, and the six internal organs are the small intestine."
"The five elements corresponding to earth are the spleen, and the six internal organs are the stomach."
Tang Turing waved his hand twice, indicating that Chen Hongjing could sit down, and then continued the lecture. However, Chen Hongjing discovered at this time that Fan Xiaoxi had already woken up, yawning with his chin in his hands, and whispered to Chen Hongjing: "Be careful in class, for such a simple thing, there was a pause in the middle of the lecture. Yes. Fortunately, Gao Zhugan is not here. If he were here to listen to the class, we might not both be able to sleep well tonight."
It's strange to say, I don't know if Fan Xiaoxi was really asleep just now or was he pretending to be asleep? When it was Master Tang's turn to ask him to answer the question, Fan Xiaoxi obviously stopped snoring. But when it came to tall bamboo poles, Chen Hongjing also laughed bitterly. Another roommate can be considered a weirdo.
"Are there only eight freshmen here this year? There are so few." Fan Xiaoxi whispered.
Chen Hongjing was shocked for a moment and murmured softly: "How can you tell which ones are new students and which ones are old students?" He had been here for several days and couldn't tell which ones were new students and which ones were old students. , everyone is not in the same class.
"This is not simple. You can see it in two points. First, you freshmen, for the first ten days, you can't delay even one of Mrs. Tang's classes, no matter it's windy or rainy, or the principal is in a meeting. Tang The old man is an old hero who even the principal doesn't give face to. The second point is even simpler. You can carefully observe everyone's hands. Only the hands of your freshmen have fine skin and tender flesh. And the hands of our old students are Such."
Fan Xiaoxi put his hands gently on the table and turned them up and down. Both the palms and the back of the hands are very rough and covered with old and new scars and calluses.
"These were all made while collecting herbs and refining elixirs. It doesn't take long. If you stay in the school for a month, you can have such skillful hands."
"Oh no, just wait. Later, when you take the old lady's class, you will know what happiness is." The smile on Fan Xiaoxi's face made Chen Hongjing feel a little scared.
The bell rang, and students walked out of the classroom one after another. Tang Turing saw Fan Xiaoxi walking towards him at a glance. Looking at the injuries all over his body, he knew that he had failed again.
"Tell me, what has been added this time and what has not been added. Let me take a look at it."
"Hey, hey, Mr. Tang, you really understand my heart. Come on, come on, I'll show you, Mr. Tang, a look at it." Fan Xiaoxi walked over with both hands and presented it to him that he had personally made. Pills.
Tang Turing sniffed it, put it back, and said with a smile: "Boy Fan, it's okay. This time I added some rhinoceros dung, and replaced the fresh durian leaves with snow lotus dew. The coolness is enough, but the aura is still a fly in the ointment. . Let’s look for something to replace it with.”
Fan Xiaoxi clapped his face with both hands, frowned and said, "Sure enough, success is not that easy. I will probably have to beat the old woman three, four, or five times."
"How dare you let her try the medicine?" Tang Turing said in surprise.
"That's definitely not the case. I thought she didn't beat me hard enough! I ate it myself and then argued with her, but she beat me personally."
"Then the reason she beat you was because she was worried about you taking medicine randomly?"
"No, she said that it won't work if the body is strong. It only needs to be done internally and externally, so she beat me up."
"Hahaha, who told you to go against her every day?"
"Can you blame me? She is unreasonable. She brought me to the school herself. If it were you, I probably wouldn't be beaten every day."
"Hitting is intimacy, scolding is love. Hahahahaha."
"Well, wait a minute. I want to ask you two, is the old lady you said to be my wife in the next class?" Chen Hongjing broke the conversation between the two and asked weakly, because after listening to the conversation between the two of them, I feel like my life will be gone after I finish the class.
"Yes!" they both replied in unison, smiling.
The two of them laughed happily, so happy that Chen Hongjing felt a little sad.
The lunch break has passed, and seeing Fan Xiaoxi still lying on the bed sleeping soundly as he had no classes in the afternoon, he remembered the conversation he had with his wife this morning.
Chen Hongjing passed through the school and the alchemy room, and came to the open space behind the school. It was strange that there was no one there. Didn't you agree to go to class? Why is there no one left?
"Hey, hello." Suddenly, someone pushed Chen Hongjing from behind. Chen Hongjing couldn't stand still. He followed the momentum and took a few steps forward, almost falling to the ground.
Chen Hongjing stood still and turned around to see a girl wearing purple clothes. He was originally very angry, but suddenly he couldn't get angry because the girl had white hair and a very fair complexion. Only by looking closely could you see a trace of blood on her face. The first sentence that came to Chen Hongjing's mind was: Will this senior sister die soon?
"Don't play like that in the future, senior sister. It's easy to make others fall. It's not good to hurt others and make you feel guilty." Chen Hongjing said calmly.
The white-haired girl stared at Chen Hongjing with wide eyes. After a moment, she pointed at herself and said, "Ah, how do you know I am a senior sister? Do I look that old? Don't you think I am a freshman in this class?"
Chen Hongjing smiled, imitated Fan Xiaoxi's tone, and repeated it to the white-haired senior sister.
"Senior sister, you should understand this. Hey, it's already this hour, why hasn't the master come yet?"
The white-haired girl nodded, probably understanding the meaning. He took out a small piece of paper from his clothes, handed it to Chen Hongjing and said, "By the way, take this small piece of paper. Master has written all the homework for this class in it."
Chen Hongjing took the note and asked: "The first class is so important, don't we need to get to know Master first?"
"Don't worry, you have completed the homework on the note. When you come back from get out of class, Master will personally come to check your grades today. You are the last one to come. Master left in advance because of an emergency, so I asked me to hand over the note here. Here you go. You should hurry up and finish your homework later, but it will make you feel better. Tsk, tsk, tsk, this master is not ordinary." The white-haired senior said in a low voice.
"Ah, it turns out that what Fan Xiaoxi said is true. It turns out that our wife is really a fierce and ruthless old woman?" Chen Hongjing asked.
"Yes, isn't it? Even I am afraid of her. Forget it, forget it, let's not talk about it. I also have homework, so I won't tell you too much. Let's take a step first." Baifa After the senior sister finished speaking with her hands on her hips, she jumped up to the eaves and fled.
This is the first time I have seen someone jumping up and down on the roof of the school so boldly. If Master Tang saw it, he would probably be scolded for two days and two nights before he would give up. Chen Hongjing shook his head, maybe it was also because of the senior sister's physical condition. He didn't think much and opened the note. His assignment was to deliver the medicine and it should be delivered within two hours.
Chen Hongjing thought about it and found that it was quite simple. After delivering the goods, he still had time to come back and make an appointment with Fan Xiaoxi and Gao Zhugan for a meal. This wife was not as generous and fearful as Fan Xiaoxi said.
Chen Hongjing handed the note to the warehouse manager. The uncle in the warehouse held his face in one hand, looked at the note with the other, and then looked at Chen Hongjing. It seems a bit unbelievable.
"Is there any problem? Uncle Tian Hai?" Chen Hongjing asked.
The man named Uncle Tian Hai shook his head. This was indeed what the old woman did. Pointing to the door, he said: "No problem. The medicinal materials and elixirs written on the paper are all outside the door. You can deliver them yourself."
Outside the door? When Chen Hongjing first came in, he saw twenty carts of medicinal materials outside the door, each cart containing two large boxes of medicinal materials. Can a twelve-year-old child deliver these forty boxes of medicinal materials within two hours?
"At first, I thought that the lady had made a mistake? However, after thinking about it, she would indeed do this. As a reminder, if you don't finish it within this hour, you will probably be even more upset. It's so miserable. Don't say any more and hurry up and leave." Uncle Tian Hai handed Chen Hongjing the addresses of twenty more manifests and made a gesture of taking care of himself.
Chen Hongjing looked at the sky, immediately ran out, chose the lightest car, quickly got in and left.
Looking at the twelve-year-old little body, Uncle Tian Hai shook his head: "I said, you are too crazy. Treat this class of freshmen like this, eight people, none of them can escape your clutches, not by being You captured them to help make elixirs, but you captured them and went up the mountain to pick herbs. Some of them were thrown directly into the team that was dealing with the plague village. This was okay, after all, they were led by Lao Sheng, so there wouldn't be too much danger. But. If you ask him to deliver the medicinal materials alone, it seems to be the safest, but it is actually the most dangerous. Aren't you afraid that the person receiving the goods will find trouble with him? "
"What nonsense are you talking about? I'm not going to look at him. Hitting means kissing, scolding means loving. If you love him, you must train him well. These freshmen are lovable just by looking at them. No one can be left behind. You must accept my deep love as a master. Just slip away."
I only heard his voice but didn't see his person. Disappeared again.
The first bus was quite easy, and it was not far from Licorice Hall, just two streets away. He will come back soon to pull the second car, and he must choose the nearest one first and deliver it first. When he dragged the car to the door, he saw the white-haired senior sister drying medicinal herbs next to the door. The white-haired senior sister waved to him. He also waved to the white-haired senior sister. He really envied the senior sister for being able to do such an easy job.
In the evening, Chen Hongjing finally finished delivering the twenty carts of medicinal materials. When delivering the third and sixth carts, the guests still gave Chen Hongjing two large bowls of water to drink, and several people scolded him for being late. I had no choice but to bend down and apologize.
Chen Hongjing was sitting in the open space waiting for his wife, whom he had never met before. He didn't see any other students coming. They must have gone to eat.
"Oh, it's really good, little junior brother, I actually let you catch up." The white-haired senior sister came out from behind again, but this time she did not scare Chen Hongjing.
Chen Hongkong nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, it's done. However, I still envy you, senior sister."
The white-haired senior sister smiled: "Okay, I won't tease you anymore. I'm not senior sister, I'm your master, and my name is Xu Huixin. However, in the future, if you want to call me senior sister, you can't call me master. I'm young." "
Chen Hongjing's scalp suddenly became numb. He remembered what he said in front of Master Xu today.
"You don't have to come to my classes for the next few days." Xu Huixin said with her hands on her hips.
Chen Hongjing immediately stood up, lowered his head and said, "I was wrong, Master. Please don't."
"It's not because you said the wrong thing, but." Xu Huixin grabbed Chen Hongjing with one hand and threw it into the sky.
"Ah!!!" Chen Hongjing shouted...
Fan Xiaoxi was reading a book in the dormitory and studying the elixir. He only heard a "bump". At this time, Gao Zhugan was definitely not coming back. Fan Xiaoxi was a little angry and said, "Brother, can you open the door?" Be gentle, no matter how the old woman treats you today, you have to get used to it, because there will be more of this kind of day in the future."
"Yes, there are a lot of them. Come on, little fat boy, let Master take good care of you."
Fan Xiaoxi was stunned. This voice was that of the dead old woman, the master who introduced him to the world. He turned around and saw the unconscious Chen Hongjing on Xu Huixin's shoulder. He said with a smile: "Who am I talking about? It turns out to be my master who is as beautiful as a flower and has a great power over the country. Master, let me make tea for you." .”
Just as Fan Xiaoxi was about to run out of the door, Xu Huixin threw Chen Hongjing on the bed. She grabbed Fan Xiaoxi with her other hand and smiled at Fan Xiaoxi: "Come on, let's go." She threw Fan Xiaoxi directly. to heaven.
"No!!!!"
