The daily routine of the ancient imperial examination

At Longmenguan at the end of March, the temperature finally returned to above zero.

In Boss Wu's coffin shop, Lu Xiuyuan was leaning on the recliner, holding a meridian map in his hand, reviewing acupuncture points while basking in the sun.

On the surface, it looks very comfortable, but he is the only one who understands the sadness inside.

Since he and the young master bid farewell to the little prince of the Goudai tribe last time, he hasn't seen him for another week.

Staring at the acupoint explanation in the book, Lu Xiuyuan saw that his head was getting bigger, so he simply put the meridian map on his chest, closed his eyes and shook the rocking chair.

The soft cool wind blows on the body, mixed with the smell of traditional Chinese medicine, it smells quite comfortable.

In a trance, he was about to fall asleep.

Seeing his appearance, Shi Shi, who was drying the medicinal materials next to him, couldn't help but asked worriedly: "Lu Xiucai, have you memorized everything Dr. Xu told you to memorize?"

Lu Xiuyuan closed his eyes and waved his hands, "It's okay, I've almost recited it."

After hearing this, Shishi cast envious eyes, "You are amazing, Lu Xiucai, Doctor Xu has only been teaching you for a short time, and you have memorized everything by now."

He turned over on the recliner, faced Quartz and said, "Go and prepare your pen and ink, and I will teach you a formula later, and you can memorize it in a short time."

"That's great!" Hearing this, the other party was immediately overjoyed, quickly put down the medicinal materials in his hand, and walked briskly to the room to prepare items.

Now that you are studying acupuncture, you must know all the meridians and acupoints of the human body.

Because Lu Xiuyuan didn't pay much attention to these before, he barely memorized half of the acupuncture and moxibustion rhymes, but now, comparing with the picture given to him by Dr. Xu, he has slowly figured out the other half.

Thinking of this, he simply got up and followed him into the room.

Stained with ink, he picked up a pen and wrote:

"Hand Taiyin Lung Eleven Points, Zhongfu Yunmen Tianfu Jue, under Xiabai is Chize, the bottom of the hole is connected to Lieque, and there are Jingqu and Taiyuan, Yuji Shaoshang is like a leek leaf."

……

I recorded most of the formulas on paper, and explained those acupuncture points to the other party while writing. While teaching, I was also deepening my impression.

After Dr. Xu's tutoring during this period, he has basically made up for his shortcomings in Chinese medicine. Now, if he does not consider other factors, he can already rely on practicing medicine for a living.

When he was instructing Quartz to endorse, he suddenly heard the name outside the yard as if someone was calling him.

Lu Xiuyuan put down the book in his hand and walked out curiously.

In the courtyard, a guard was looking around. He looked familiar, as if he was from the General's Mansion.

Seeing him coming out, the other party hurriedly said, "Lu Xiucai, our General Shi is looking for you urgently."

"General Shi looking for me?" Lu Xiuyuan lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment. After guessing what was probably going on, he confessed to Quartz who followed behind him, and then he cupped his hands at the guards, "It's not too late, let's go there quickly."

He followed him out the door and got into the other party's carriage.

While the wheels were rolling, it didn't take long to arrive at the General's Mansion.

Lu Xiuyuan had already become familiar with the guards at the gate, so he didn't let anyone lead the way. He came to the living room by himself, and as expected, he saw the little prince who hadn't seen him for a week.

The other party's outfit this time looked more mature than the last time he came here, with a touch of gold straps on his forehead, and a personal guard beside him.

When he entered, the little prince was chatting with General Shi with his head tilted.

As soon as the other party saw him coming in, he couldn't help standing up on the seat and questioning: "Lu Xiucai, there is something wrong with the medicine you gave last time!"

The general at the side heard this and quickly stood up to stop him, "Little prince, speak carefully, speak slowly if you have any questions, don't be impulsive."

Murong Yan glanced at General Shi aggrievedly, "The medicine doesn't work well, why don't people say it?"

General Shi frowned, "This medicine is definitely no problem, the people here are all taking this medicine."

The other party was refuted, turned his head unhappily, and raised his chin slightly at Lu Xiuyuan, "What's the matter with this medicine? Why doesn't it have much effect on us herdsmen?"

Hearing this, he looked puzzled, "Shouldn't it? As General Shi said, the people in our city are also using this medicine, and there has been no change. How could it have no effect?"

"Shouldn't you reflect on the medicine you prescribed?"

Lu Xiuyuan thought for a while and said, "Why don't you tell me how those patients reacted after taking the medicine?"

Therefore, the little prince told the general reaction of their tribe after drinking the medicine for seven days.

"For those with mild illness, after taking the medicine, they recovered very quickly. In five days, they no longer had diarrhea and high fever. Before they came, they had basically returned to normal..."

Hearing that in such a short time, the person with mild symptoms has already recovered to normal, Lu Xiuyuan's eyes flashed a little surprise, "I can recover in seven days, isn't that great?"

"This king is not talking about this," the other party's eyes were a little impetuous.

"Those herdsmen who are seriously ill can only barely maintain their lives after drinking these medicines. They haven't seen any improvement in their symptoms. Even if they double the dosage later, their spirits will be even worse. Isn't this a problem with the medicine?"

Listening to the other party's questioning, Lu Xiuyuan patiently explained to the other party.

"Our treatment method here is different from your witch doctor. We pay attention to one person and one party. Each person is prescribed different doses of medicine according to the symptoms and conditions. They are all targeted treatments."

"So?" The other party didn't understand what he wanted to express.

"So, at the beginning, we could only prescribe medicines according to the symptoms of most patients. For those who were seriously ill or had special symptoms, there was no way to carry out targeted treatment because they could not see the patients. Regarding this, we did our best."

After hearing his explanation, Murong Yan probably understood the reason, but he didn't expect that it would be so troublesome to treat the illness here.

But thinking of Lu Xiuyuan's words, he had an idea.

"Wouldn't your doctor be able to see the patient after following us back to the Goutai tribe? Wouldn't it be good for us to thank you after the treatment and then send him back?"

When Lu Xiuyuan heard the other party's proposal, he felt in his heart that the other party's idea was really good, why did he think so beautifully?

"Doctor Xu is very old. He worked hard to come to Longmenguan before, and he worked hard for treatment without taking a short rest. Now his body is very weak and he can't stand it anymore. I hope you can forgive me."

Murong Yan frowned, and then said: "What about the other doctors in the city? They are stationed here, and they must have good physical stamina. It shouldn't be a big problem to go to our tribe."

Seeing that the other party was unwilling to give up, Lu Xiuyuan reminded: "The plague in the city was controlled and wiped out only after Dr. Xu arrived."

Hearing Lu Xiuyuan's words, Murong Yan was a little entangled. After such a comparison, even if the doctors at Longmenguan were willing to follow him back, but with Doctor Xu as a comparison, he couldn't help but doubt their medical skills.

He sipped his lips, looked pitifully at General Shi with a pair of amber eyes, and softly asked: "We will pick up Dr. Xu in the most luxurious carriage, and wait until the Goudai tribe gives us the highest etiquette reception. Guarantee Dr. Xu's safety as much as possible, is that okay?"

Facing the beauty's request, General Shi could only look at her helplessly, spread his hands, expressing that he was helpless.

"Doctor Xu came to Longmen Pass to support him out of good intentions, and the general couldn't say that."

The little prince was conflicted in his heart. In his eyes, the only one who could come in handy was Doctor Xu, but he refused to borrow it. Looking at Lu Xiuyuan's tall and straight posture, he suddenly had an idea in his heart.

"I think you are not bad, why don't you come back to the Goudai clan with us. If those people are cured, the king will reward you a lot."

Caught off guard and being called by name, Lu Xiuyuan was stunned, "Little prince, don't go to the doctor in a hurry, I'm just a scholar, an ordinary scholar, I won't treat people."

When the people next to Murong Yan heard the title "Little Prince", they immediately yelled at Lu Xiuyuan in displeasure: "What little prince? This is the new wolf lord of our Goudai clan! Be polite."

Murong Yan stretched out his hand to block the guard beside him, and flirted with him, the man lowered his head and returned to the original posture.

Murong Yan apologized to Lu Xiuyuan, "It's the first time he goes out with this king, he doesn't know the rules, so please bear with him."

To be honest, Lu Xiuyuan didn't have much feeling for this guard, but he was a little surprised by the other's address.

Wolf King seems to be the title of the leader of their Goudai tribe. In just a few days, this little prince has become the leader?

Looking at the many ornaments on the other party's forehead and the color of the clothes, no wonder it is different from the last time.

Seeing Lu Xiuyuan's refusal, Murong Yan couldn't help but said: "How could it be, my king saw that you were quite skillful when you loaded the medicine last time, as long as you are willing to come, you can ask for anything after you are cured. "

Lu Xiuyuan stretched out his hand to refuse, "I can't do it, little prince, you'd better think of another way earlier."

Hearing that the other party also refused, Murong Yan felt a little headache.

Thinking of the less than half of the seriously ill people in the tribe, the effect of drinking medicine is not good, but he has just sat on the wolf master's seat, and he can't ignore it, so he can't help but ask: "Just signed the contract, the herdsmen haven't been cured yet, so why don't you give up?" Don't you care?"

General Shi saw that the other party seemed to be angry, and quickly comforted him, "We will definitely help provide medicinal materials. Don't worry, Lord Wolf, we can slowly find a way."

When Murong Yan heard the address of the other party's wolf lord, he felt even more aggrieved. He couldn't help but glared at General Shi, and he was so angry that he didn't speak any more.

Lu Xiuyuan was also very helpless, "If the symptoms are severe, they must be diagnosed and treated face-to-face, so that we can receive targeted treatment. Dr. Xu is not in good health, and Longmenguan is not too close to the Goudai tribe. We really have nothing to do."

For a while, the living room was frowning.

At this moment, the guard of Murong Yan spoke again, "Master Wolf, those serious herdsmen, can't they eat now? Since their doctors really can't come, we can bring them here by car? "

The voice fell.

General Shi breathed a sigh of relief, and this was a good way, "If it is convenient for you to transport the patient here, I can order my subordinates to help you build a few sheds outside the city, and there will be a good one." place of placement."

Murong Yan frowned, and pinched the palm of his hand with red marks with his fingertips.

He was not very satisfied with this proposal, but because he had no better way, he could only reluctantly agree.
