Longevity starts with learning.

Chapter 78 Read, read more.

Chu Mu walked into the room. The room that was once extremely simple has changed drastically. There are dozens of books neatly piled up on the table.

Among them are the books taken from Mr. Li, and some medical books circulated outside that Chu Mu entrusted to get from the bookstore.

Beside the bed, there was also a row of medicine cabinets, in which there were various kinds of medicinal materials that Chu Mu bought from Mingxintang. Of course, the amount of each medicinal material was not much.

Its function is mainly to allow Chu Mu to better understand the appearance and types of medicinal materials, and to understand the medicinal properties of medicinal materials.

In the bed, there is also a small stove with an earthen pot on it, which is mainly used for boiling medicine.

Shennong tasted all kinds of herbs. In such a medical system that mixes herbs and utilizes herbal properties for treatment, it is absolutely difficult for a doctor to use them well if he does not personally experience the medicinal properties of the herbs.

The same is true when it comes to the connection between medicine and martial arts.

And on top of Shennong's tasting of all kinds of herbs, this era undoubtedly has a unique advantage.

The cultivation of qi and blood can make people clearly perceive any changes in the whole body, and naturally they can also clearly perceive the specific conditions of the medicinal properties.

Even, even if it is highly toxic, if you are prepared, the gathering of qi and blood can directly block the toxicity, and even consume part of the qi and blood, directly expel the toxicity.

Of course, this premise is to be prepared, otherwise, if the toxicity spreads, there is no way to do it.

Such an advantage that is close to cheating, if it was in the previous life, it would undoubtedly envy a large number of Chinese medicine practitioners. Chinese medicine practitioners have tasted hundreds of herbs, but they can't understand the properties of medicine so clearly.

Moreover, the medicine is three-point poisonous, and tasting the medicine means that the poison enters the body. It is hard to imagine how those doctors established a perfect system of traditional Chinese medicine in the previous life without Qi and blood practice.

Chu Mu was inexplicably moved, picked up a medical book, and sat by the side to read it.

He always gets up quite early, and there is still some time before he is on duty, so Chu Mu naturally won't waste it.

The pages of the book are turned, and to use the famous saying of the previous life, it is like a sponge absorbing knowledge.

And the fact is that it is.

Knowledge is power. Chu Mu already understood this sentence.

It took about a quarter of an hour before Chu Mu put down the medical book in his hand, picked up a bookmark made of leaves and clipped it to the pages of the book, picked up a few medical books, and Chu Mu walked out of the room.

It was deep winter, the wind was bitterly cold, and the heavy snow had lasted for several days. The entire Nanshan Town seemed to be once again shrouded in snow.

There are not many pedestrians on the street, most of them are in a hurry, under the eaves on both sides, you can see patrols avoiding the wind and snow from time to time, and the inns and wine shops are even more noisy.

The big black dog named Wangcai by Chu Mu wagged its tail and followed behind Chu Mu, one person and one dog, walking on the street against the wind and snow.

From a long distance, one could clearly see the corpse swaying in the wind and snow, perhaps because it was sucked into a mummified corpse. After nearly a month, the corpse still maintained the appearance of a mummified corpse, without any decay.

The surroundings are still as usual, but there is no movement for more than half a month, no matter how strictly prohibited the guard is, it is obviously inevitable to relax.

Chu Mu has already gotten used to it. This kind of life is no different from guarding the mine before. He just finds a place to sit and then...reads.

"Wangcai, come here!"

Chu Mu went to sit down on the steps under the eaves, and beckoned to Wangcai who was looking around.

The son of a bitch is very human, when he saw Chu Mu's call, he rushed over wagging his tail.

"sit!"

Chu Mu pressed Ya Wangcai's head, and the son of a bitch immediately sat obediently in front of Chu Mu.

The reason for bringing the dog on duty is simple. After all, people have to eat, and dogs also have to eat. Recently, Chu Mu often runs outside, and has no time to get food for the dog. It is better to let the dog follow.

"Brother Mu."

Seeing Chu Mu coming, Xu Yuan also came over.

Chu Mu asked casually, "How was the practice?"

Xu Yuan leaned on the threshold stone, and said listlessly: "It's not close, the main reason is that I can't calm down, and I always think wildly."

"Brother Mu, do you think I don't have the talent to practice martial arts?"

"You can feel the qi and blood for the first time you practice. I have been tossing about for several days, and I still don't feel anything..."

"You're in a hurry."

Chu Mu glanced at the listless Xu Yuan, pondered for a moment, and then said, "The cultivation of qi and blood lies in stillness, how can you be so restless if you are so impetuous?"

"So, don't try it these few days, read the book first, read the book quietly for a few days, and then try."

After finishing speaking, Chu Mu ignored Xu Yuan's response, and turned his eyes to the medical book in his hand. Long-term conscious concentration has already made Chu Mu develop a habit of calmness.

Soon, the chaos of the outside world was ignored by the consciousness under this focus. In the eyes and in the heart, there were only lines of words in the book.

In more than half a month, Chu Mu has already read through more than ten volumes of medical books, and the volume of medical books he is holding in his hand is already number 16.

The most basic requirement of the so-called thorough reading is naturally to recite fluently, and moreover, to know the text and the meaning.

Chu Mu's idea is very simple, that is, read books, read more books!
Medical skills are as complicated as the sea, so he will read all the medical books he can get his hands on, and try his best to take advantage of its "spiritual blessing" to enrich his medical background.

When the medical theory is enriched to a fairly high level, it will be a matter of course to gradually apply the theory to practice.

Chu Mu was concentrating on the book, while Xu Yuan was also immersed in the book. The patrol inspectors either gathered around the campfire in twos and threes, or hid in the inns and wine shops on both sides of the street to eat and drink.

Everything is as usual. It seems that the guards are heavily guarded, but in fact, most of them have already slacked off. The tranquility of half a month is enough to wipe out anyone's vigilance.

In fact, it seems to be the same. For a day, Chu Mu quietly read the book for a day, and the other inspectors chatted for another day, but nothing happened.

At dusk, with the snow still on, the patrol inspector on duty arrived to take over the duties of the patrol inspectors. A day of guarding, a day of dawdling, was over again.

Chu Mu glanced at the corpse covered in wind and snow, his eyes moved slightly, but he couldn't help but think of the boy again.

There was no movement for more than half a month, which seemed to indicate... those rebels really gave up revenge, and also gave up the corpse of their master.

"Hope it..."

Chu Mu shook his head, if he really wanted to give up, it would be a good thing for him.

He also has his own arrangements for the current routine of life. If possible, he hopes that such peace can last forever.

Best, that boy should never appear again, and he should never step into that mine again...
