Chapter 9 Compendium of Materia Medica

Mu Wenbin picked up the book. There were four big words written on the cover: Compendium of Materia Medica. He opened it and started reading. It turned out that this was a book introducing various medicinal materials. As soon as he took a look, he was attracted by the content inside.

, he kept looking at each medicinal material, its name, medicinal properties, effects, etc., which made him dazzled.

At this time, the master finished meditating. Seeing that he was so engrossed in reading, he didn't call him. He just looked at him quietly. After two hours, the master interrupted him. Only then did he realize that the master had been waiting for him.

Two hours later, the master asked him if he looked good. He nodded. The master said nothing and put the book away. He didn't know where he hid it, but he probably hid it in his sleeves. The master was wearing a long robe with wide sleeves.

The master called him out and caught a few fish first. He was also hungry. They grilled and ate them, and then took him into the mountains. Today they picked more wild fruits, but the ones picked before going to school

I have never found that kind again. After picking wild fruits and returning to the cave, the master handed her a baggage and said, "Disciple, you don't want to go into the mountain tomorrow."

Mu Wenbin was stunned for a moment. Did the master not want me anymore? With tears in his eyes, he sobbed and said: "Master, you don't want me anymore? Did your disciple do anything wrong? I don't want to leave the master."

"Hahaha, apprentice, you are too worried. How could the master not want you? How could such a good apprentice be willing to be a master?" the master laughed.

"Then why don't you let me go into the mountains tomorrow?" Mu Wenbin stopped sobbing and asked.

"The secret must not be leaked. You will know tomorrow. This baggage contains the fruits picked today. You can take it back to your grandparents to eat." The master said, then took out the Compendium of Materia Medica and handed it to him: "Take this book back slowly."

Look, you know there are all kinds of medicines here, you just need to remember the names, properties, and pharmacology of these medicines."

Mu Wenbin took the book as if he had found a treasure, immediately hid it in his arms, and then asked: "Master, when will I see you again?"

"You can come here after you have memorized all these medicines! Also, remember, you can only read this book for a maximum of two hours in the morning every day, and you cannot read it more." The master said seriously.

Seeing his master talking to him so seriously for the first time, Mu Wenbin nodded and replied, "Disciple, I remember."

He said goodbye to the master and returned home, but he couldn't figure out why the master wouldn't let him go into the mountains again. He didn't think much about it. The master said he would know tomorrow, and it didn't matter. Anyway, I got the baby and I can do it myself at home.

look.

When he woke up early the next morning and opened the door, Mu Wenbin was so shocked that his eyes almost popped out of his head. It turned out that it snowed heavily all night last night and now the mountain has been snowed. God, it’s so amazing. The master is indeed a god.

Knowing that the mountain would be closed due to heavy snow today, he had no choice but to let himself go into the mountain. In his heart, he admired the master even more.

He couldn't go anywhere due to heavy snowfall, and the whole village was staying at home for the winter. Fortunately, the master gave him the book. He got up every day and helped his grandfather with some housework. After breakfast, he started reading. His grandparents were illiterate.

, I don’t know what he is looking at, but I feel happy when I see my grandson being so diligent and loving to learn. Every time I think of the villagers praising my grandson, I can’t smile from ear to ear, especially Tian Orion, who always praises Wenbin for being smart and studious when he sees him.

It must be that Wenquxing came to earth, unlike his Xiangzi who knows how to play all day long. The younger sister is also very well-behaved. She lets her brother play with her for a while and then goes to play with stones by herself. Every time he plays with his sister for a while, he will get a fruit.

Give it to my sister, who especially likes to eat these fruits. The grandparents feel sorry for their granddaughter and are reluctant to eat them, so they leave all the fruits to her sister.

Ten days have passed in the blink of an eye. Today is New Year’s Eve. Mu Wenbin didn’t read a book. He woke up early in the morning and started preparing household items for the New Year with his grandfather, such as steamed buns, stewed meat, croquettes, etc. Today is New Year’s Eve, and tomorrow

It’s the Spring Festival, the most solemn festival in China. Although Yongkang Village is relatively closed and the mountains are blocked by heavy snow, the whole village can still see the rare liveliness. After lunch, I helped my grandma make dumplings. Last time, I used medicinal materials.

After selling it for 1,000 yuan, my grandfather also went to the mountains to collect medicinal materials after he recovered. Grandpa was rich in experience. Although he did not collect very expensive medicinal materials, he also collected a lot. The family still had no worries about food and clothing. The family was very happy.

I've almost finished making the dumplings, and I'm just waiting to eat them on New Year's Eve.

After making the dumplings, my grandparents and my sister went out to chat. Mu Wenbin came to the kitchen and set up a pot on the stove to boil water. After the water was boiled, he cooked the dumplings. After cooking a large bowl of dumplings, he found a clean piece of cloth to wrap.

Got up, took the dumplings and went out.

After looking at the white snow all over the mountain, Mu Wenbin stuffed the dumplings into his arms and headed into the mountain with a wooden stick in his hand. The mountain was covered with snow, and it was difficult to tell where the road was, so he just used the stick to feel it.

The road entered the mountains bit by bit, but fortunately there was only one road to the master. The road that used to only take an hour to complete, this time it took him almost three hours to complete it, and he also fell a lot along the way.

Somersault, it was almost dark by now.

He walked into the cave and saw the master still meditating there. He was about to call the master, but the master spoke first, "Why don't you listen to the master and go into the mountain?"

Listening to the master's somewhat angry tone, Mu Wenbin hurriedly said: "I know my mistake, but master, today is New Year's Eve, and we all have to eat dumplings. I know that the master is alone in the mountains, so I cooked them at home for the master."

Bring it here." After saying that, he took the dumplings out of his arms, put them on the stone platform and opened them. Then tears burst out of his eyes because he fell a few times on the way and the dumplings were almost broken.

The master opened his eyes and looked at his apprentice. He felt very happy and distressed at the same time. He picked up the dumplings and ate them. He also said that he had never eaten anything so delicious. Seeing the frostbite on his hands, he lit a fire in the cave.

Then he took out a porcelain bottle from his sleeve, poured some oil out of it, smeared it on the apprentice's hands, and then accompanied the apprentice to warm himself over the fire and chat.

"Master, you are a god, why haven't I seen you fly? Aren't they said that gods can fly?"

"You want to see the master fly? When you grow up and learn the medical skills, the master will fly to you."

"Master, how long have you been in this mountain alone?"

"I have forgotten how long it has been since I was a teacher. It has been hundreds of years, right?"

"Hundreds of years? How old are you this year, master?"

"My teacher is already 100 million years old"

"How much is one hundred million?"

"It's many, many years old!"

"Master, which village does your family come from? Why have I never heard you mention your family?"

"Master is a god. Of course his home is in heaven."

In this way, the two masters and apprentices kept chatting. The master's medicine was very effective, and the injury on his hand healed in just a moment. It was getting darker and darker, and he was afraid that the apprentice's grandparents would be worried, so he carried the apprentice out of the cave. The master

He walked quickly and carried him to the vicinity of the village in a short while. After putting his apprentice down, he waved to his apprentice and asked him to go home quickly. Although the two of them didn't speak much, they both knew that their hearts were tightly connected.
