Unexpectedly, just as he was about to get on the bus, he was stopped by the conductor: "Hey! Whose kid are you from? Why are you running around?"
"Auntie, I'm going to my uncle's house in the county town. I'm not running around." Afraid that the other party would stop her because she was afraid that she wouldn't buy a ticket, she took out a one-yuan piece from the two dollars given by her grandma and handed it to the conductor: "I'll buy a ticket. "
Shen Chi did not lie about this. His uncle Shen Changxi did live in the county town.
"Did you steal the family's money and run away?" Seeing Shen Chi, a child, take out so much money, the conductor became more and more disbelieving.
"Auntie, I really am not. I'm going to my uncle's house in the county. Please let me get in the car." Shen Chi said urgently.
Seeing that he spoke clearly and didn't look like he was lying, the conductor had no choice but to let him get on the bus with some hesitation.
Due to Shen Chi's height, the conductor charged him half the ticket. Shen Chi handed him a dollar and gave him 90 cents.
"Auntie, what time will your bus come back in the afternoon?" Shen Chi asked the conductor again.
"It's half past four," the conductor replied.
Shen Chi silently calculated in his mind that he could read for three hours.
Nowadays, transportation is not as convenient as it was later. There are only public shuttle buses to the county seat, and there are only one bus in the morning and one in the afternoon every day. If you miss it, you will not be able to come back.
The car drove for nearly an hour and arrived at the county bus station. Shen Chi got out of the car and rushed to the county library according to the memory of his previous life.
The library is open to the public free of charge. Unless borrowing, you will need to apply for a library card and pay a deposit.
Shen Chi entered the library without any obstruction. Facing the rows of books on the shelves, Shen Chi didn't know what to do for a while.
Quickly walking between the bookshelves, Shen Chi saw that the bookshelf labels all marked the categories. Shen Chi suddenly found a bookshelf with a label about traditional Chinese medicine.
Thinking of his short life in his previous life and his grandmother who died of illness, Shen Chi immediately had a goal in mind and quickly browsed in front of the bookshelf filled with books on traditional Chinese medicine.
He didn't have any foundation in Chinese medicine, so Shen Chi chose books on introductory Chinese medicine. Shen Chi didn't dare to choose more for fear of wasting time. After choosing three books, he found a place to read them carefully.
Nowadays, his intelligence, mental and physical attributes have increased a lot, and he can read books extremely quickly. After finishing the first basic book on traditional Chinese medicine, a system prompt rang in Shen Chi's mind: [Learn basic knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine and gain knowledge. Point 1200 points.]
Only knowledge points? Shen Chi was stunned for a moment, thinking that it would activate the Chinese medicine skills.
Shen Chi refused to give up and started to read the second book on traditional Chinese medicine theory. After reading it, he still only got more than a thousand knowledge points and did not activate his medical skills.
Think about it, Chinese medicine is profound and profound, and it would be childish to think that it can be activated just by reading a few books.
Shen Chi believes that as long as his knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine continues to deepen, he will activate this skill sooner or later.
After finishing the third book, he saw that it was already two forty. It was not easy to come here by himself. Shen Chi returned the book to its original place, and quickly found a copy of "Song of Soup" and started reading.
After finishing the book, it was almost time, so Shen Chi hurried to the passenger terminal. When she came back, she was still the same conductor, and Shen Chi greeted her warmly.
At this time, the conductor also believed Shen Chi's words, thinking that he was really visiting a relative, and still charged Shen Chi half the ticket.
During dinner in the evening, Shen Chi did not say that he had gone to the county town. After all, the trip was nearly an hour's drive away. He was a child alone. If Shen Changlin and his wife knew about it, they would definitely not let him go again.
After taking a bath, he started to do his summer homework. He has now activated his calligraphy skills. Writing with a pen can be regarded as hard-pen calligraphy. Every time he writes two words, the system will prompt Shen Chi to gain some knowledge.
Although the points are small, they add up and you can earn hundreds of dollars in a day.
The next day, Shen Chi went to town early in the morning and got on the bus to the county seat again yesterday. The conductor recognized Shen Chi and asked curiously: "Kid, are you going to your uncle's house again today?" "
"Yes, Auntie." She said and handed over a dime.
After getting off the bus at the county seat, Shen Chi went directly to the library. This time Shen Chi picked out more than a dozen books about traditional Chinese medicine: "Compendium of Materia Medica", "Shen Nong's Materia Medica", "The Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic"...
And so on, some books were out of reach for him and a bench was brought in.
Arriving at where he was yesterday, Shen Chi quickly immersed himself in the fun of reading. He read each book one by one selflessly. Soon it was noon. After finishing the last book, Shen Chi simply picked five more books. .
In order to save time, Shen Chi didn't go back to eat at noon.
After reading a book for a day, the Chinese medicine skill was still not activated today. However, because Shen Chi eagerly read the book, he accidentally activated the "photographic memory" skill.
With this skill, Shen Chi can read books faster, just like scanning.
Seeing that it was almost time for the shuttle bus to leave, Shen Chi quickly returned the book and quickly ran to the passenger terminal using Luben.
As soon as she got home, she saw her parents and grandma looking anxious. When she saw him coming back, Gui Shuzhen asked immediately, "Where have you been? You didn't even come back for lunch?"
"I was reading in the bookstore in town, so I didn't come back at noon to save time." Shen Chi lied slightly.
"Didn't you buy the book?" Gui Shuzhen was stunned.
"It costs money to buy a book, and you can read it in one go. You can read it for free in a bookstore," Shen Chi replied.
Everyone was stunned by Shen Chi's words. Seeing that he was such a sensible adult, they couldn't blame him any more, so they had to give up with a few words of scolding.
"I'll bring dry food tomorrow." Shen Chi said.
"Are you going tomorrow?" Gui Shuzhen couldn't help but be stunned.
"Why don't you go if you have free books?" Shen Chi insisted.
She and her husband looked at each other, but they couldn't find a reason to stop Shen Chi.
Shen Chi got up early the next morning, made breakfast, baked pancakes, filled a kettle with boiled water, said hello to his parents and set off again.
Seeing that he really prepared his own dry food, Gui Shuzhen blamed herself and said: "It's all our fault for our poor economy. If we had money, we would have bought more books for our children."
Shen Chi came here for three days in a row, and soon attracted the attention of the librarian. Seeing that he was holding books on traditional Chinese medicine, which even adults had trouble reading, he couldn't help but curiously asked: "Children, these books do you Do you understand?"
Shen Chi smiled: "I understand."
After saying that, he carried the book to his previous position and started reading it carefully.
Because there was an administrator beside him, Shen Chi had to slow down and did not dare to turn the page too fast. The administrator looked at Shen Chi for a while and saw that he was looking at it seriously and seemed to really understand, so he walked away.
As soon as he left, Shen Chi quickly flipped through the pages like a scanner, and all the knowledge was scanned into his brain and stored.
