“Try to learn as much as you can from him,” Pan Mei said . “Take him seriously, even though he is quite young!”
“Of course I’m taking him seriously,” Pan Jun said . “To be honest, I didn’t initially think he was a good doctor because he’s so young . I shouldn’t have judged a person by his age . Now, I’m convinced he’s an extraordinary doctor . He is really a genius . ”
“Good . Since he’s willing to teach you, you need take the chance to learn as much as you can . I think he’s very good at pulse checking,” Pan Mei said .
“He’s good at pulse checking, prescribing herbal formulas, massage, and acupuncture . He’s basically good at everything,” Pan Jun said . “However, I just want to learn massage at this stage . One thing at a time . ”
“You can learn other skills from him in the future when you get a chance,” Pan Mei said .
“Sure,” Pan Jun said . He had the same thought .
At the beginning, he only wanted to learn Chinese massage . He gradually changed his mind and wanted to learn other skills . Luckily, he was not greedy or unrealistic about learning . After all, he had limited time and energy to learn every single skill from Wang Yao . He just wanted to try his best since Wang Yao was willing to teach him .
In the village, Wang Yao was having lunch at home .
“All the patients have gone?” Zhang Xiuying asked during lunch .
“Yes,” Wang Yao said .
“They seemed desperate . Was there a sick kid?” Zhang Xiuying asked .
“They are all fine now,” Wang Yao said . He didn’t want to talk about those people . He didn’t want his mother to worry about certain people and things . “It’s all good . ”
Wang Yao didn’t return to his clinic after lunch . Instead, he went up to Nanshan Hill . He had planted tens of trees . The next step was to water them .
He watered the trees with diluted ancient spring water . He didn’t have enough ancient spring water, so he created a tunnel to allow the spring water from the top of the hill to run to the trees .
San Xian was watching Wang Yao working happily .
“San Xian, do you think Nanshan Hill is becoming higher?” Wang Yao took a look at the hill at west, which seemed to be lower than usual .
Woof! Woof! San Xian moved his front feet .
“What do you mean?” Wang Yao asked with surprise .
Woof! Woof!
“Are you saying the hill is moving?” Wang Yao asked .
Woof!
“Oh my!” Wang Yao took a deep breath .
He sat on the ground to calm down . He then released his Qi to communicate with the universe . The aura around him was accumulating .
What?
Wang Yao felt the movement beneath him . The aura around him continued to accumulate, which indicated the earth beneath him was changing . To prove his thoughts, he went to the east hill but didn’t feel anything special . Nothing happened when he was on the west hill either . This made him sure that Nanshan Hill was changing .
Hills can grow higher like a human being? This is unbelievable!
Wang Yao was really surprised . He walked around on the hill in search of a reference object so that he would know for sure whether the hill was growing or not . However, he failed to find one . In the end, he had to estimate the change of Nanshan Hill based on Dongshan and Xishan hills .
It was March, so the weather had become much warmer . The day had also become longer .
Many villagers came out of their houses to a chat after evening dinner . The most popular topic among them was the apartments under construction in Lianshan town center .
“I heard the construction is going to be finished May,1,” a middle-aged villager said . “We can go and choose an apartment then . ”
“Yes, my son’s girlfriend has been asking about the apartment,” his neighbor said . “I was worried about it last year . You know, nowadays you have to prepare an apartment for children to get married . Fortunately, we have this good opportunity . ”
“How come that young Mr . Sun hasn’t been here for a while?” a villager asked .
“Yeah, I hope there won’t be any issues with the apartments,” another villager said .
“I don’t think so . We’ve signed the contracts,” the other villager said .
Nearly half of the villagers were willing to exchange their existing homes in the village for an apartment in the town center . This was significant . It meant that once the construction was finished, half of the villagers would move out of the village . More than half of their houses were very old . A lot of the villagers had two houses in the village: one old, one new . The one house was usually prepared for when their sons married .
“Look, Yao is here, ask him,” a villager suggested .
The villagers stopped Wang Yao, who was walking down from Nanshan Hill, to ask him about the apartments .
“Well, since you’ve all signed contracts, which are legal documents, I don’t think there should be any problem,” Wang Yao said .
“I see . That’s good,” a villager said .
As Wang Yao walked to the entrance of the lane leading to his house, he saw a man riding a motorcycle from the north of the village . The man looked tired and dirty .
Huh!
Wang Zecheng was exhausted . He had been working the whole day . He also was working three extra hours in a small factory in the evenings . He had been doing it for over a month . He had never worked so many hours or been so tired like this before, but he thought it was worth it .
“Hello, just came back?” Wang Yao greeted Wang Zecheng .
Wang Zecheng had changed into a different person . He had changed his mind and attitude . Therefore, Wang Yao’s attitude toward him had also changed .
“Hello, yeah, just came back,” Wang Zecheng said .
“Take care of yourself . Don’t overwork,” Wang Yao said .
Anyone could tell how tired Wang Zecheng was .
As the old saying went, working too much could lead to an unhealthy body . When a person was overtired, the body wouldn’t be able to resist external bacteria or viruses .
“I see,” Wang Zecheng said . He rode his motorcycle home .
It was 9:30 when Wang Yao left home . He saw Wang Zecheng again .
“Hmm?”
“Hi, are you going to Nanshan Hill?” Wang Zecheng stopped the motorcycle and greeted Wang Yao .
“Yes . Where are you going?” Wang Yao asked .
“I found a job in town . They give me two to three hours of work every night,” Wang Zecheng said with a smile . Although he was exhausted, he felt his life was full .
After staying silent for a moment, Wang Yao said, “Go home and have a good rest . ”
“OK . See you later,” Wang Zecheng said .
Wang Yao thought, He’s completely changed!
It appeared to be easy and normal for a man to work hard for his family . However, it was not easy at all .
It was quiet on Nanshan Hill . Wang Yao was preparing a formula . He picked astragalus, Codonopsis pilosula, Phryma leptostachya L, ganoderma, peony, pear grass, cizhan, Changyang, and Guiyuan .
This formula was for Wu Tongxing’s father . It contained four licorice roots . The value of this formula was just a bit lower than the prolongation pill . Therefore, it was very effective and powerful . The very sick old man required a powerful formula to prolong his life .
I can change the formula a bit, Wang Yao thought .
He planned to use this formula to treat the young man he saw in the morning . He had a benign tumor in his body .
I can keep cizhan and swap Guiyuan with licorice .
Wang Yao made a mild change to the formula .
I won’t know whether it works until he takes it .
He had all the herbs available, including cizhan .
Wang Yao decided to brew the decoction at night . At the beginning, he would consider the timing for brewing a decoction . However, with the assistance of Spirit Gathering Battle Array, timing was no longer important .
The only thing was he didn’t have much firewood left .
The aura around Nanshan Hill came to his herbal field after Wang Yao had created the Spirit Battle Array . It not only affected Nanshan Hill but also the surrounding areas . The trees and flowers were growing really fast on the hill . There were rarely dead trees around . It took Wang Yao a while to find firewood .
I can probably buy some firewood, Wang Yao thought .
The decoction was boiling in the multifunctional pot . Wang Yao put the herbs into the pot one by one . The herbs melted inside the decoction, which turned darker and darker .
“Done!”
The decoction was ready . After it had cooled down, Wang Yao poured it into a white porcelain bottle . He then turned the light off and went to sleep .
It was very quiet at night . Only the sound of wind could be heard .
Woo!
San Xian suddenly stood up in his dog house .
WhuLah! Da Xia flapped his wings .
Swish! Swish! Xiaohei lifted his head in the grass .
Hmm? Wang Yao suddenly sat up .
What just happened?
He just felt a strong movement of the aura around him . Given his current ability, he could even feel it when he was sleeping .
