The old rivals of Sanyuan County, Chang Dan, and Cheng Hetai gathered together again. They were all amazed as they looked at the thin pages of paper in front of them.
Chang Dan exclaimed: "It's a great idea, it's really a great idea. I didn't spend all my money in vain just by writing this article."
These dozen pages were torn from Wang Yue Tan. At that time, he heard that this issue of Wang Yue Tan contained an article by Sun Simiao, so he went around to buy it.
Unfortunately, the person who grabbed the book was either unwilling to sell it, or the price was too high for him to part with.
Finally, I found an acquaintance who was a scholar. He was not interested in medical skills, so I tore out these dozen pages and sold them to him.
Cheng Hetai said with admiration: "The most admirable thing is that he has no secrets and is willing to make his medical skills public to the world."
"This is really a blessing for us, a blessing for medicine, and a blessing for all people in the world."
Chang Dan said with deep approval: "Yes, Master Sun is truly worthy of being the leader of our medical family."
At this time, Cheng Hetai suddenly said: "I am going to send my useless grandson to Zixiao Temple to serve Master Sun."
"Ah?" Chang Dan said in surprise: "Zhenzhen Sun is a master from this world, how can he accept disciples easily? Besides, he already has successors."
Cheng Hetai said: "Instead of being a disciple of Zhenren Sun, how could I dare to think of such a good thing? I am going to be a medicine boy to serve his old man."
Chang Dan still shook his head and said: "I'm afraid it's not that easy to be a medicine boy for his old man. Besides, you only have a grandson, are you willing to let him endure hardship?"
Cheng Hetai said: "As long as you are sincere, I believe I will be able to impress him. As for enduring hardship..."
There was some reluctance on his face when he said this, but it was quickly replaced by perseverance: "There is nothing in the world without hardship. Now follow me to enjoy the blessings. If you don't learn the skills, you will have to endure hardships for the rest of your life."
"Now I will have to endure hardships with him for ten years, and I will enjoy happiness for the rest of my life. I can still make a clear decision on which choice to make."
Chang Dan was secretly surprised by his determination, but he himself was also touched by these words.
How big is the difference between the treatment of famous doctors and ordinary doctors? To put it simply, famous doctors will become guests of the powerful.
But an ordinary doctor like him would be very timid when meeting a government official. This is the difference.
If you can really learn medicine from Sun Zhenren... No, even if you work as a medicine boy with him, you can become a famous doctor after ten years of exposure.
What's more, he was Sun Zhenren's medicine boy, a seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister's door. His old man's medicine boy had a glorious status no matter what.
Leaving aside the distance, there is no problem in being a decent person in Sanyuan County when I come back.
The more he thought about it, the more he thought it was a good idea. Cheng Hetai only had one grandson and he was willing to send it to him. Why wouldn't I dare to send it to him if I have several grandsons?
He immediately made up his mind and said: "Okay, I will sacrifice my life to accompany you, and I will also let my incompetent grandson accompany you, so that I can take care of you when the time comes."
Cheng Hetai said that this was the purpose of this matter. When he saw that he had taken the bait, he happily said: "Okay, Brother Chang did not disappoint me. Let's go to Chang'an together in three days."
Chang Dan said: "Let's go to Chang'an in three days."
The two of them went home and called their families together to talk about the incident.
Chang Dan's family has a large population, and his wife didn't say anything except being a little reluctant to part with him.
When his son and daughter-in-law heard that they worked as medicine boys for the living god Sun Simiao, each one was more active than the other, and they even urged the children to be obedient and study hard.
It's different with Cheng Hetai. After all, he is the only child. His wife is naturally reluctant to part with her grandson, and so are his son and daughter-in-law.
Although his grandson was not pampered, he grew up in a honey pot and became frightened when he heard that he was leaving home.
But the more this happened, the more determined Cheng Hetai was in sending him away. How could such a character be able to support a family? He had to endure some hardships and temper himself.
Three days later, amid his old wife's cries and abuse, he set off with his grandson.
Meet Chang Dan at the city gate and take an ox cart to Chang'an City.
The two children were only thirteen or fourteen years old. They were originally very scared when they left home for the first time, but they became less panic after seeing others of the same age.
The two of them started chatting in whispers. One was named Chang Bokun and the other was named Cheng Yun. They were similar in age and both were in their early thirties.
My family owns a pharmacy. I have helped with odd jobs since I was a child and have a certain understanding of medicine. Now they are sent to Zixiao Temple to study medicine together...
With so many similarities, the two quickly became good friends and talked about everything, and their fears about the future were gradually diluted.
Chang Dan and Cheng Hetai were also very happy to see the two children so speculative. The two had been fighting for so many years, but they never expected to reconcile because of this matter. It was considered fate.
It took them two full days to travel from Sanyuan County to Chang'an, a distance of more than 100 miles, but they did not suffer much hardship on the way.
It was the first time for both children to see the city of Chang'an. They were deeply shocked by this tall and majestic capital. They felt curious everywhere they entered the city.
Chang Dan and Cheng Hetai were not in a hurry to go to Zixiao Temple. They first took their children to walk around the city to learn more, and also asked about the situation of Zixiao Temple.
As a result, they heard a piece of news that shocked them. Sun Shenxian performed a caesarean section to save a mother and her baby.
Surgery? Caesarean section to remove the baby? They couldn't believe their ears, how could this be possible? But the uproar in the city didn't seem to be fake, and they couldn't judge the authenticity for a while.
But from the people's mouths, they understood Sun Simiao's status more clearly. This made them even less confident. Will he want his grandson?
After spending a day repairing in Chang'an City, they took their grandson and pretended to be pilgrims and entered Zixiao Temple.
After walking around, I couldn't help but be shocked by the scale and incense of this Taoist temple.
Especially when they saw the endless stream of dignitaries wearing silk and satin, it put even more pressure on them, and for a time they felt a little discouraged.
But after coming, I couldn’t bear to leave without giving it a try. So I gritted my teeth and found Zhike Daotong and explained my identity and purpose of coming.
What they didn't expect was that Tao Tong did not refuse after hearing their identity and purpose of coming, but instead took them to see a steward named Yang Tianlu.
The steward named Yang Tianlu checked their directions, asked some questions about medical skills, and briefly inspected Chang Bokun and the two.
After confirming that they were not fake, he issued a certificate to them and said:
"There is an inn on the right side of the Taoist temple. You go there first and settle down. Show this to the innkeeper and he will arrange everything."
Cheng Hetai asked cautiously: "Zhenren Yang, I wonder if we are lucky enough to meet Zhenren Sun?"
Yang Tianlu smiled and said: "I want to verify your identity first. If there are no problems, I will take you to see the temple master. Don't be anxious, just stay in the inn for a few days and wait for news."
Cheng Hetai and Chang Dan looked at each other. They thought of all kinds of difficulties, but they didn't expect it to be this problem.
Do you still need to verify your identity? How to verify it? Go to Sanyuan County to ask?
But Yang Tianlu had already made it very clear that everything was for the sake of Zhenren Sun's safety, and he would receive free food and accommodation in the inn.
They couldn't say anything, so they could only go to the inn with all their worries.
Yang Tianlu immediately arranged for people to conduct an investigation, and then took their information to the backyard to find Chen Jingke.
