"Corydalis yanhusuo, dahurian angelica, licorice, and what other herbs?"
"Angelica, poria …"
"Hiss, that's not right!"
Dr. Chen frowned.
He could identify most of the herbs in the two decoctions that Wang Yao had prepared. He could not identify the herbs that played a decisive role in the decoction. He could not figure it out. It could not be helped. They were all licorice roots. Although Dr. Chen had been practicing medicine for decades and was known as the Sage of Apricot Woods, he had never seen those herbs. No, he had never even heard of them.
On the other side of Jing, Zhang Xiufang was telling her husband what had happened during the day in detail.
"Hiss, there is such a good thing? Why does it sound so unreliable?" Wang Yao's second uncle's husband asked.
"I went to see the company. It doesn't seem to be fake."
"Is it the KeDa that is not far from us?"
"Yes."
"That company is definitely not fake. It has been there since 10 years ago. I have been there."
"Why don't I quit this job and try it out?" Zhang Xiufang asked.
"But I still think it is strange. They are a good company. Why would they invite you to work there?" Her husband was not trying to discourage her. He knew his wife's ability very well. She had no education or skills. She was just kind and honest. But that was not the reason why the company came to visit.
"Yes, I also think it is strange. You want to lie to me? What do I have to lie to?"
"Hey, can you ask Yao if this has anything to do with him?" Zhang Xiufang's husband suddenly thought of this. His eyes lit up.
"Him? What does this have to do with him?"
"You can ask him. I think he has a good relationship in Jing."
"Okay, I will ask him."
In the small courtyard, Wang Yao received a call from his second aunt.
"Aunt, what's the matter?"
"What, work? Oh, yes, I did call a friend of mine. You can go and have a look, "Wang Yao said with a smile.
"It is really Yao!" Zhang Xiuying hung up the phone and said to her husband, "He said he asked a friend for help."
"Well, you did not dote on your nephew for nothing. You can quit your job tomorrow and work at KeDa. It is close to home."
"Oh, okay."
In a research institute in Jing, several laboratory staff were busy working.
"How is it?"
"Professor, it is an unknown ingredient, and it will take some time for us to analyze it."
"Unknown?"
"Yes."
Chen Lao took out a small part of the two decoctions prepared by Wang Yao. He hoped that he could use advanced equipment to analyze the ingredients and determine what the unknown herbs were. Unfortunately, he did not make good progress.
In fact, such experiments had been done many times by foreign institutions. They tried to extract the active ingredients in Chinese medicine and abandoned the imprecise extraction method, but most of the time, they failed. This was the mystery of the national medical skills that had been passed down for thousands of years. There was the fusion of Yin and Yang, and the mutual restraint and generation of the five elements. Medicine was not just a skill, but a kind of Dao. It was the inheritance of culture. There were too many things in it. Actually, it could be figured out with a simple analysis!
Early in the morning, the sky in Jing was a little gray. It looked very uncomfortable. This was normal here.
Chen Ying sent Wang Yao a plane ticket.
"Thank you. How much is it?"
"No need," Chen Ying said with a smile.
"How can I do that? This is a separate matter," Wang Yao said.
"How can it be reasonable for you to pay for a house call and for you to personally pay for the travel expenses?"
"Okay, then I will have to trouble you to go with me."
"Okay."
Wang Yao called his second aunt. At this time, his second aunt had completed the resignation procedures in the shopping mall and was on the way to report to Keda Group. When she heard that Wang Yao was going to send them a plane ticket, she asked him to wait for her at home.
"Plane?" After receiving the plane ticket, Zhang Xiufang was a little surprised.
She had been in Jing for more than ten years and had never been willing to take a plane. When she went back to Lianshan County, it was always the family that squeezed in the train.
"Yes. Is my sister going back too?"
"She is going back too. The school is on holiday. Consider it a little relaxation before the college entrance examination."
"Okay, I will come and pick you up."
"Okay. Oh, by the way, thank you for the job you found for me."
"We are family. There is no need to thank me. Have you gone?"
"Not yet. I am going to report today," Zhang Xiufang said.
"Then I will go with you."
"Okay."
Wang Yao accompanied his second aunt to the so-called Keda Group. Ms. Zhao was very happy to see Zhang Xiuying. She accompanied Zhang Xiuying to complete the employment procedures and told her that she could come back to work after the May Day holiday.
"Thank you."
"It is my pleasure."
After changing jobs, Zhang Xiufang was very happy.
"Do you want to have dinner at home tonight?"
"No, I still have some things to do."
After sending his second aunt home, Wang Yao returned to the small courtyard. When he arrived, he found a very bright young man waiting for him. He had seen this person before.
He was Guo Sirou's younger brother, Guo Zhenghe.
"Hello, Mr. Guo." Chen Ying saw that there was a slight change in his expression and greeted him with a smile.
"Hi, Sister Ying. How many times have I told you to call me Xiao Guo or Zhenghe? Calling me Mr. or Miss sounds like feudal capitalism," Guo Zhenghe said with a smile.
"I don't dare," Chen Ying said.
"Brother Wang, I am sorry. I have been here for a few days. I only came to visit you now."
"It is okay." Wang Yao smiled and waved his hand. To be honest, he did not have much interaction with the young man in front of him and did not want to.
"Brother Wang, do you have any plans tonight?"
"Yes, I am going to see a patient," Wang Yao said. He was going to leave Jing the next day and visit Su Xiaoxue in the evening.
"Oh, I originally had an appointment with a few friends. I wanted to introduce them to you. Since you are free, how about next time?"
Wang Yao just smiled and did not respond. Guo Zhenghe chatted with Wang Yao for a while and then left.
"Sister Chen, you don't seem to like the young man from the Guo family very much."
After they left, Wang Yao asked Chen Ying with a smile. In the past few days, many guests had come to the small courtyard. There were old people, such as Guo Sirou's grandfather, and young people, such as Guo Zhenghe. Chen Ying's attitude towards them was different. Some were respectful, and some were polite. However, it was the first time he had encountered such a slightly nervous and deliberate avoidance.
"Not at all. He is the young man of a noble family," Chen Ying said with a smile.
Wang Yao did not ask any more questions. Since she did not like him, she must have her reasons.
That night, no one came to invite him. It was more to his liking to have a quiet meal alone.
After dinner, he went to the Su family's house to check on Su Xiaoxue's condition.
Her condition was stable and slightly better. This was the result of his diagnosis.
"Dr. Wang, are you leaving tomorrow morning?"
"Yes."
"I will have to trouble you with Xiaoxue's illness," Su Xiaoxue's mother said in a very sincere tone.
"Since I have decided to come and have seen the patient, I will do my best," Wang Yao replied very seriously.
"Oh, that's good."
This sentence made her feel a lot more relieved.
Wang Yao stayed by the patient's bed for a while and found that Su Xiaoxue seemed to be looking at him.
"Hello, my name is Wang Yao," he said with a smile.
Su Xiaoxue blinked her eyes.
"So, his name is Wang Yao."
"Calm down and recuperate." Wang Yao's voice was very calm. He did not know that Su Xiaoxue could hear him clearly.
"Hold the mind and calm the heart, calm the heart and clear the mind, form without effort, and do not shake the spirit …" Wang Yao softly recited a few lines of the Natural Classics.
"What is this?" Su Xiaoxue's mother, Song Ruiping, was surprised and puzzled.
"A paragraph of scripture," Wang Yao said with a smile.
He did not know why he suddenly recited the paragraph of scripture. This was a scripture provided by the system. It was very mysterious. He had practiced neixi with the help of this scripture and opened up several meridians in his body. He also felt sorry for Su Xiaoxue, so he recited a few lines, hoping that she could hear and think about it.
"I will come again before I leave tomorrow."
"Thank you."
Song Ruiping walked Wang Yao out. She did not go back until Chen Ying drove away.
"What did he recite just now?" She asked her son.
"It sounds like a Taoist scripture. I will ask Chen Lao."
"Okay."
Chen Lao recited the few lines of scripture he had heard over the phone. Wang Yao's voice was very soft. He did not pay much attention to it, so he only heard a few lines. He did not hear the whole thing.
"This is the Natural Classics, a Taoist scripture. It talks about the way of nature, which can make people feel at peace," Chen Lao said on the other end of the phone.
I did not expect this young man to be so familiar with Taoist scriptures. Could he be the legendary Xuan doctor? But his method does not seem like it.
That night, the crescent moon was like a hook, and it was a bit late.
Wang Yao and Chen Ying came to a somewhat special place, the Great Wall.
Yes, it was the Great Wall. It was not in the daytime, but at night. It was a sudden idea. He wanted to go there to have a look, so he came.
"This place gives people a comfortable feeling."
The Great Wall stretched for thousands of miles, crossing the east and the west.
It was made of bricks and stones. What a great power it was. How many bones were buried under it?
Under the moonlight, Wang Yao felt something in his heart.
His body moved, sometimes fast, sometimes slow. His palms and fists intertwined.
Chen Ying saw this and retreated far away. She heard the sound of the wind. It was the sound of the wind between the fists and the palms.
Bang!
Suddenly, there was an explosion, as if a cannon had been fired.
"This is?!" Chen Ying was stunned. It was as if she had seen a ghost.
Wang Yao's eyes lit up. His body trembled. Another meridian was unblocked.
This was an unexpected surprise.
The punch just now also came from the boxing manual that Zhou Xiong had given him. It was simple. One punch could break the air, so it was called the Space-Splitting Fist.
After he stopped practicing, he stood there for a long time before he turned to look at Zhou Ying.
