I have a magical tree

In fact, this situation is very common in medicine. Even in Xu Dao's previous life, when technology was not well developed, the treatment was the same, so there was a method of treating the disease according to the symptoms.

And the symptoms here are mostly superficial symptoms.

After seeing the wounded, Ge Lao took Xu Dao into his official residence.

He pointed to several huge bookshelves, "You can read all the medical books here. If you don't understand, ask me. Although you have inherited medical skills, your foundation is weak. If you want to learn to make medicine, the current situation is far from enough. Wait until you pass my assessment!"

So, Xu Dao began to study by himself. Medicine is an extremely complex system, even in ancient times when medicine was not well developed. In addition, there are extraordinary powers in this world, and there are more things involved!

That is, Xu Dao himself is gifted and has a strong memory. In addition, he has the blessing of the bronze tree, and his martial arts breakthrough has made his spirit stronger and his thinking clear and active. Otherwise, facing this room of books, I am afraid he would want to die.

I'm afraid that many people will never be able to learn all these things in their lifetime. Even Xu Dao dare not say that he can learn them in a short time. After learning, he must not only read them, but also remember, understand, and then apply them in practice. Otherwise, memorizing them by rote is not considered learning.

Seeing that Xu Dao had just sat down, he immersed his mind in the book and nodded with satisfaction. He was right. This child was intelligent and precocious. Otherwise, he would not have such medical skills at this age. Only such people could inherit his mantle.

It's not that he has never met people with extraordinary talents, nor that he has never met children with extraordinary intelligence, but these people would not come to study medicine at all. Wouldn't it be more promising to practice martial arts? And those who wanted to learn were so stupid that he looked down on them.

He thought that he had no chance to pass on his skills, but he didn't expect to meet such a good seedling in this small Yanghe County. It was really rare, so he thought of accepting disciples.

Refining medicine and making pills may seem to belong to the medical path, but in fact, it belongs to the integration and sublimation of the medical path and the martial arts. Those who are not talented enough cannot learn it at all.

Moreover, this path requires a lot of time. Everyone has limited time and energy. Martial artists feel that they do not have enough time to practice martial arts, so how can they have the energy to study these things? The benefits of practicing both medicine and martial arts are obvious to everyone, but the disadvantages are also obvious.

When a martial artist is at a low level, the increase in life span is also limited. The life span of the seventh grade is only 150 years, the life span of the sixth grade is only 200 years, the life span of the fifth grade is 250 years, and even the fourth grade is only 300 years.

It seems a lot, but it is really not much, and the realm of martial artists is to break through while they are young, because as the age of the martial artist approaches the life span, the blood and qi will decline, which will lead to the failure of the breakthrough. It is best to break through before half of the life span, and after two-thirds, there is little hope.

In other words, if a fourth-grade martial artist cannot break through the third grade before the age of 150, the chance of breaking through will be reduced, and if he still cannot break through at the age of 200, then the hope is very slim.

The decline of Qi and blood may be solved by precious medicine, but the loss of spirit cannot be solved by precious medicine.

At noon, Ge Lao stopped Xu Dao, "Is there anything you don't understand?"

Xu Dao asked him about the doubts he had just read, and Ge Lao answered them carefully. When Xu Dao had no more doubts, he took him to the backyard for dinner.

Yes, the government had three meals a day. Xu Dao's family was already well-off, but they only had two meals.

Even those poor families could hardly have two meals a day. When they were busy, they had two dry meals. When they were idle, they had one liquid meal and one dry meal, or even two liquid meals. They just needed to avoid starvation.

After dinner, Ge Lao signaled Xu Dao that he could go home and go to the yamen at 3:30 am tomorrow.

3:30 am was 7:45 am. If there was nothing important in the Shangyi Bureau, he only needed to stay until the end of noon, which was about 1:00 pm, and then he could leave.

It's quite early to go to work, Xu Dao thought to himself.

On the way home, Xu Dao paid for a roast goose. Although he ate it, his mother and younger sister certainly didn't. Although the family's food is better now, they haven't eaten roast goose for a long time.

A roast goose costs two hundred coins, which is really expensive. According to the current grain price, it can also buy 10 to 20 kilograms of rice. But this goose must be more than four kilograms, he thinks it's worth it!

After thinking about it, he simply bought another cake, which is even more expensive. Half a tael of silver per box is also something that only rich people can afford.

This is for Xu Lu. The girl has never eaten anything good. Now that he has more money, he is naturally willing to spend it.

He is now a ninth-rank doctor, with a monthly salary of 15 taels of silver, one stone of fine rice, 10 kilograms of oil, and cloth at the end of the year. It can be said to be quite generous. Moreover, if he eats in the government office, he doesn't have to pay, and the food is not bad.

Adding the income from the clinic, his monthly income can now reach about 30 taels, um, very high! In the previous life, it was a monthly income of over 10,000 yuan!

Life suddenly became happy!

Sure enough, when she returned home, the younger sister Xu Lu saw the roast goose in Xu Dao's hand, and her saliva immediately flowed. When she called her big brother, she was much more affectionate. When she saw the cakes, she climbed directly on Xu Dao.

"Big brother, you are so nice!"

"No, I'm not good, it's the roast goose and cakes that are good!"

"Well... Big brother is also good!" Xu Lu thought for a while and said very seriously.

Xu Dao rolled his eyes. He was very happy that this girl could say this.

"You are..." Liu's mother looked at the official uniform on Xu Dao, a little unbelievable.

"My son is an official, a ninth-rank official!"

"But you can't spend money recklessly!" Liu's mother was happy and distressed. She knew that these things were not cheap, and they probably cost almost one or two taels of silver.

"I don't buy them every day, I buy them for the little girl to taste!" He couldn't afford to buy them every day.

If he bought them every day, he would have to spend more than twenty taels a month, which would cost him a month's salary! However, it's okay to buy them every few days.

"Just now someone sent a box of gold and a bottle of medicine to our home, saying that it was sent by your master. What's going on?" Liu asked again.

"It's a gift from your master and his wife. Just accept it. I'm here to repay this favor, so don't worry about it!" Xu Dao reassured Liu.

Liu nodded, "I have already received those things in your room. Even if you don't tell me, I know I don't have the ability to repay this favor. You are a capable person, but remember that there is no good without reason in this world, and there is no favor without asking for return. Don't forget your roots and be ungrateful."

"Don't worry, mother, go and try the roast goose, the good days of the family are still to come!" Xu Dao understood that Liu was still worried and unsure. She didn't know Xu Dao's strength, so she naturally felt that this wealth came too easily, and she was not at ease and uneasy in her hands.

In theory, it is true. He is now a disciple of Ge Lao and has an official position. It seems that he can rest assured, but once there is a big change, this seemingly solid protection will also be broken. Whether he can keep the wealth depends on his own strength.

If he has the strength of the first rank of martial arts now, he will not eat beef!
