The Executor of the Heavens: Beginning with the Watch Dogs

Chapter 58 The new place to stay
"I heard that a ghost (foreigner) came to the ** Traditional Chinese Medicine Hall as an apprentice?" There are rumors of good people.

"Shocking (really)? Isn't that deceiving the master and destroying the ancestors?" The listener said in surprise.

"Who says it's not? Alas, the world is really declining, and people's hearts are not old. The things of the ancestors are passed on to outsiders!" A conclusion made everyone sigh.

Not far away is the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hall. Xie Yuan, who acts as a clerk, has a natural and warm smile on the surface, but in fact, he has already scolded in his heart because of his excellent hearing:
"Made, what the hell! How many good things have been passed down because they couldn't be passed on to outsiders, and the end result of the self-preservation is "We used to have a good time", what's the use of that!"

"A Yuan, come here and cut the medicine, I'll come and see the shop." The shopkeeper's voice came from behind the curtain of the medicine shop.

"Okay." Xie Yuan walked in immediately.

This is called Wu's Traditional Chinese Medicine Store, and the shop owner's nickname is Big Fatty Wu, which is an inherited name, because his father is also named Big Fatty Wu, and his son will inherit this shop and also call it Big Fatty Wu.

Because when Fatty Wu's distant cousin came from the mainland, he almost provoked a lard boy because of his gambling, and then Xie Yuan helped pay off the gambling debt.

In view of the large amount of this sum, it will not be clear for a while. At the same time, Xie Yuan is also interested in learning Chinese medicine. In order to repay the favor, the fat Wu accepted Xie Yuan as an apprentice as soon as he gritted his teeth.

However, Fatty Wu was pleasantly surprised to find that Xie Yuan really had a foundation. Because of the prescription given by Master Wan Laisheng, Xie Yuan began to study the introductory courses of Chinese medicine: "Medical Three Character Classic", "Binhu Pulse Science", "Medicinal Properties" "Fu" and "Soup Song Jue", and relying on the increased mental strength, he has memorized the four classics thoroughly.

However, as a Chinese medicine practitioner, the most important thing is to identify herbal medicines. In Chinese medicine, Xie Yuan actually has to learn a few things: bruises, acupuncture and moxibustion recognition, medication and pharmaceuticals, etc. are used in the classification of traditional Chinese medicine trauma science.

Just like Master Wan Laisheng, he is an all-rounder who does not distinguish between medicine and martial arts. If he has the opportunity, he will also learn Western medicine and get in touch with battlefield first aid and trauma surgery.

At this moment his study has just begun.

I worked quietly all day, and didn't call it a day until six or seven o'clock, but Xie Yuan called it a day, because the Chinese medicine store was still open, and as a price, the Chinese medicine store didn't need to bear Xie Yuan's three meals, of course, this was also requested by Xie Yuan himself .

If you really let go of your stomach and eat it in front of people... I'm afraid it will scare people to death!
Even if it is a meal full of oil and water, Xie Yuan needs to eat a whole basin of food. Xie Yuan has studied Dragon Elephant Wisdom for a long time, and his diet is mainly vegetarian, but he still cannot completely quit meat, because vegetarian Can't be full.

However, he generally chooses to eat the three clean meats. Those who eat the three clean meats, namely: first, they do not see the killing, that is, they do not see the tragic scene of the animal dying; second, they do not hear the killing, that is, they do not hear its screams ; Third, not killing for yourself, that is, not killing for your own desire to eat.

So if you want to eat the three clean meats like this... you can only find ready-made ones in restaurants. Fortunately, Xie Yuan's space still retains a large amount of floating money looted from dead officers in Hans Nacui's building.

In Hong Kong now, the war has ended for nearly five years, people can keep warm and start to think about sex, so like some luxury goods, the market price of gold, silver and jewelry has gradually increased.

The floating wealth held by Xie Yuan is the top European style accessories that he has chosen thousands of times, so as long as he keeps selling goods in a gold shop or pawnshop, he will not have to worry about food, clothing and support for a long time. Practicing.

After eating two roast ducks and three catties of stewed pork deliciously at the restaurant, Xie Yuan still had some stomach left, and returned to the rental house with a sliced ​​roast duck and a few sliced ​​meat rolls.

The place where Xie Yuan lives now is an apartment building. The building is not too new. There are many residents in one building. The upstairs roof is a public space for drying clothes.

Back at the door of his house, Xie Yuan was not in a hurry to open his own door, but knocked on the door of the neighbor next door.

"dong dong dong"

"Who is it?" A woman's voice came from inside the door.

"Sister-in-law, it's me." Xie Yuan revealed his identity.

Then there was a sound of tidying up, and the door opened. Inside was a middle-aged man in a black long coat. He was thin and not tall, but his eyes were clear and full of divine light.

This is also a martial artist.

"A Yuan, you..." The middle-aged man in black robe looked at Xie Yuan who was knocking on the door with vegetables, but hesitated to speak.

"Oh, I bought some food for dinner from outside. I'm too lonely to eat alone, so I want to eat with you, Mr. Ye. Don't you mind?" Xie Yuan asked while holding the box.

This Mr. Ye's surname is Ye, his name is Jiwen, and his current name is Ye Wen.It was a companion I met when I was on the same boat. After knowing that he was the most important successor of Wing Chun in this generation, Xie Yuan intentionally or unintentionally lived next to him. Seeing that he was living in poverty, he tried to help him.

After all, his first boxing was from Wing Chun practiced by Shen Wei, and Ye Wen was his master in a sense.

"Uh...Ah Yuan, we...we've eaten it." Ye Wen couldn't take his eyes off the meat, but he still used his will to look away from the meat, and politely refused, "You still want to eat the meat?" Go back to your room and eat by yourself, thank you, A Yuan."

"Hey, you also know that I live alone in my house, do you have the heart for me to eat in front of the wall?" Xie Yuan still insisted on eating together, "You can help me digest it, it is also a torture to eat without being popular."

"Uh... this..." Mr. Ye is also in a dilemma. On the one hand, as a martial artist, he is also a big belly. When he was young, his family had money and property and did not worry about food. Now his family is in decline... It is a fluke to be able to maintain food every day , how can there be a chance to be full.

But their family has received too many favors from Xie Yuan. Since they met on the steamship, they have received a lot of help from Xie Yuan. Even when the landlord came to collect the debt a few days ago, Xie Yuan paid in advance on the grounds of being too noisy.

Of course, for everyone who knew Xie Yuan, what he left behind was the impression of donating money without asking for anything in return.

But as a man with a strong heart, he is unwilling to accept too many favors, and more importantly, he doesn't know why Xie Yuan treats him so well.

So even for the rent, he tried his best to make money and returned the money to Xie Yuan.

And this time, it was Xie Yuan who gave him a legitimate reason... Although he needed it in his heart, Martial Master Ye really couldn't agree, but he couldn't even refuse.

"You two big men, don't you feel ashamed to be silent in front of each other? A Yuan, come in quickly." In the end, Mrs. Zhang Ye, who still couldn't stand it anymore, invited Xie Yuan in.

If you eat meat at home, you must call your child, so Mr. Ye's son, Ye Zhun, was also called to join us at the dinner table.

After the dishes were over, the wine was omitted. After the dishes were removed, Xie Yuan and Ye Jiwen started talking at night over tea.

"A Yuan, you are from Russia. It is really rare to be able to speak Chinese and Cantonese so fluently at such a young age." Because of his age, he learned that Xie Yuan, who is full of beards, is not even in his thirties at the moment, so he is more than ten years older. The year-old Ye Wen was treated as a junior.

"My language talent is good, and if I don't understand Chinese and Cantonese, I can't practice martial arts." Xie Yuan explained after taking a sip of tea, and soon he showed a worried look and asked, "I have to do it every day. Practicing... didn't disturb my sister-in-law, did I?"

"No, no." Ye Wen waved his hands again and again. Although Xie Yuan next door did make a little noise at eleven or twelve o'clock at night, the strange thing is that Xie Yuan's slapping frequency is very soft, just like knocking on a wooden fish. Sleep-aiding effect.

But on this point, he couldn't say that.

He was interested in another point: "Ah Yuan, what kind of martial arts do you practice? Uh... If you have any taboos, you don't need to say it."

"Ah, let me think about it. Although I have learned a lot, the first boxing I learned...is the Wing Chun boxing you call Southern Boxing." Xie Yuan never asked Ye Wen's mastery for this purpose. Ask, because from whom Wing Chun was taught, there must be a source.

He devised a story for this.

"Well, why are you all dumbfounded?" Xie Yuan pretended not to understand the situation, and looked at the surprised Ye Wen and his wife.

"Wing Chun?"
