Reborn Conceited Soldier

"Two taels."    

"What about verbena?"    

"One, two, three."    

"Where's the summer grass?"    

"Five and a half."    

"What about the cantharidas?"    

Sikong Banyu frowned and said impatiently: "Are you done yet! Weighing medicinal herbs is the job of your pharmacy, why are all of you asking me right now? I'm a bit suspicious right now, but I don't know if this pharmacy of yours is truly worthy of its name. "    

Luckily, Li's questions made Sikong Banyu very unhappy. He felt like he wasn't here to catch the medicine, but rather this old man was trying to take him in as a disciple.    

When Li Xin heard this, he came back to his senses and apologetically said: "Sorry, I was rude. I was just excited. Please forgive me, hehe …"    

"That... Xiao Hong, quickly go and pour us a cup of tea for our two little friends. They have already been here for so long, so they shouldn't grow eyes. "    

When the salesgirl named Xiao Hong heard this, she could not help but open her mouth! However, it would be best if he didn't say anything and just obediently went to pour the tea. She muttered in her heart. This Teacher Li had never been so amiable towards a person before. Even if his old friend had come, he would still have blown his beard and glare at them. Why did his personality suddenly change today?    

Sikong Banyu waved his hand: "No need to trouble yourself. Hurry up and calculate the price of this herb. We still have other things to do."    

Sikong Banyu could already guess the old man's sudden change in attitude. Perhaps it was due to his method of identifying the herbs that had shocked him! He muttered to himself, 'Just what exactly is going on with the medical books on this earth? Why is it that even the slightest trick to seize the medicine is so shocking? It can't really be that backward, can it?'    

Sikong Banyu didn't know that along with the development of the era, the influx of western medicine and its immediate effect had assaulted the inheritance of traditional Chinese medicine, so the pure inheritance of traditional Chinese medicine had long been lost. In the past, a person who wanted to become a Chinese medicine doctor first had to follow his teacher and become a medicine boy for more than ten years before he could cure his illness and save his patients.    

And he could reach Sikong Banyu's level with more than ten years of experience.    

However, things had changed very early in the morning. The changes in society were too fast and the pace of life was also too fast. There were very few people who could calm down. Furthermore, they could not keep up with the times, so they were eliminated.    

"Good, good, good …" "I'll do it right away." "Yes." Li Zhu replied. He didn't stop moving his hands, but his head was spinning rapidly.    

This young man was a talent! To be able to have such precise techniques at such a young age, he must have learnt them since he was young. His background should be a Chinese medical family.    

"If we can get this kid into the provincial medical university, then wouldn't we be able to secure the top spot of this year's National Chinese Medical Skills Competition?" However, this kid seemed to have gone to university somewhere else! "It's a little difficult …"    

Li Xin's eyes flickered a few times, then smiled and said: "Little brother, your method of seizing the medicine is truly amazing! I apologize for what I did. "    

"Senior, there is no need to brood over it. Your reaction is also within reason. It cannot all be your fault."    

"Hehe …" Little Brother, you are very understanding. I wonder where Little Brother is going to attend school? You must be studying traditional Chinese medicine, right? "    

Sikong Banyu said in a perfunctory manner: "Huaxia University, just as senior had said, we study traditional Chinese medicine and are very interested in it. That's why we often practice it when we have nothing better to do."    

"Huaxia University?" Li Zhu was stunned for a moment and then immediately became excited. Don't they know who did it? Which school in China had a major in Chinese medicine? There was a major in medicine and medicine in Huaxia University, but they were all biased towards western medicine. In the capital, only within the Chinese Traditional Chinese Medicine University would there be a major in traditional Chinese medicine.    

"This kid isn't willing to speak the truth. Don't tell me he went to an unranked school. Hehe …"    

Li Xin lightly coughed twice, and laughed: "Little brother, I see that you are quite talented in traditional Chinese medicine, have you ever thought about studying further! I am a full professor at the provincial medical university. If you want, I can recommend you to enter the medical university, and I promise I won't charge you a single cent for your tuition. Every year, there will be benefits for your living, housing, and so on.    

"Huh?" Xie Xiaoni, who was standing at the side, was stunned. Isn't this condition a bit too generous? However, thinking about it, it was within reason. Elder Brother Sikong was so powerful that even the doctors in the hospital that his mother had been unable to deal with were cured by Elder Brother Sikong.    

If this were to spread, they might even invite him to the hospital to be the attending physician.    

"Humph..." Elder Brother Sikong wouldn't go. Although there was one in the provincial medical university, the Huaxia University was famous! Isn't that right, Elder Brother Sikong? "    

Sikong Banyu patted Xie Xiaoni's head, smiled and nodded, saying, "Of course, I appreciate senior's kindness, but my parents are unwilling to let me travel far since my home is in Beijing, so I can only decline senior's kindness."    

"Ah …" This... You don't want to think about it? I can have the head of the Provincial Medical University accept you as his personal disciple. You should know about him, right? He's a world-renowned expert, and is even the honorary director of the World Health Organization. Many people dream of becoming his disciple, and becoming the president's disciple is just a road for you to walk, what do you think? "    

Li Xin was still unwilling to give up. There was no helping it, no one would be willing to let go of such a good seedling.    

Sikong Banyu shook his head with a smile. "Sorry, I'm not interested in these. How much is the medicine?"    

Hearing that, Li Xin hastily replied, "Don't! We can discuss about it. If you feel that the conditions are not good enough, you can bring it up and we can discuss it. "    

Xie Xiaoni said, "Old man, Elder Brother Sikong's medical skills are already very high. You can't teach him anything at all. Even my mother …"    

"Xiaoni …"    

Sikong Banyu glared at Xie Xiaoni. Xie Xiaoni finally came to her senses. Elder Brother Sikong had told her not to mention that he had cured her mother. She almost blurted it out. She immediately stuck out her tongue and stood aside silently.    

"Senior, there's no need to mention this matter. I'm not interested. How much is this medicine?" Sikong Banyu did not want to continue pestering him, he still had a lot of things to do.    

"This... "Sigh …" Li Xin sighed with disappointment. He wrapped the medicine and handed it to Sikong Banyu.    

"Forget about the money for the medicine. To be able to meet such a talented young man, just consider this medicine my meeting gift with you!"
