The morning light was faint, and the sun passed through the buildings from the distant horizon. In this old shop area that was filled with the fragrance of medicine, it curled into a dreamy torrent.
Chu Weiming came to the medicinal herbs market. Perhaps it was because it was too early, but there were not many people walking around. Some of the antique shops had been around for a long time, and the medicine they sold was much cheaper than the ones outside. However, one must not think that this was a place where ordinary people could come often.
For the people here, the main business was wholesale. It was dispensable for idle people to buy medicinal herbs. For the sake of reputation, they did not reject individual customers. Otherwise, they would not do such a small business. Not to mention China, but anywhere else in the world, medicine was famous for being expensive, especially Chinese medicine, which was often famous for its expensive medicinal herbs.
Other than buying a set of acupuncture tools, Chu Weiming also came here to remove the conspicuous tattoo on Steamed Bun's back so that he wouldn't be criticized by some people for being 'bad'. Removing the tattoo required the help of some simple medicinal herbs. If he wanted to remove it without any scars, he needed the help of his own internal energy.
He walked along the long road paved with bluestone slabs and randomly found a small shop that looked like it had at least a few decades of history. He had specially chosen this shop, but of course, he was afraid that the shop would bully the customers. After all, he couldn't buy anything that cost 200 yuan. Back then, Mother Chu had also bought medicinal herbs according to the annual unit. The amount was about 10,000 yuan, but the other party was also unwilling. If it wasn't for the fact that acupuncture could only be sold here, Chu Weiming wouldn't have come here to buy medicinal herbs.
As he walked into the store, a wave of medicinal fragrance assailed his nose. Chu Weiming twitched his nose slightly and suddenly felt that it was interesting. This small store actually had medicinal herbs that were more than a hundred years old. It was really not simple.
He raised his head and saw an old man in a traditional white Tang suit lying on a rocking chair beside the counter with his eyes narrowed. There was a young girl looking down at something on the counter. She was also wearing a white Tang suit and had a very good figure, but he couldn't see what she looked like. The pitch-black ink exuded a sense of spirituality, as if she was a little addicted. She didn't even notice Chu Weiming coming in.
"Boss, do you have acupuncture here?" No one took the initiative to talk to Chu Weiming. He smiled and said," My main purpose is acupuncture. If it's not easy to buy medicinal herbs, I can still go to a few small drugstores outside."
"You want to buy acupuncture?" The old man frowned slightly and looked at Chu Weiming with an unfriendly gaze. He was not only a pharmacy owner, but also an experienced old Chinese medicine practitioner. Acupuncture was extremely difficult. It was an acupuncture method used by an imperial doctor. A slight carelessness could lead to a disaster. Could this young man be a medical student who wanted to practice acupuncture?
"You study medicine?" He glanced at Chu Weiming.
"Yes." Chu Weiming replied. He did study medicine, and he was a doctor who possessed internal energy. Since ancient times, people like him had said that medicine and martial arts were inseparable.
"Where?" The old man nodded slightly and continued to ask slowly.
"Is there acupuncture here?" Chu Weiming didn't answer him but continued to ask.
"Yes." The old man was not angry and said with a smile.
"Are you selling it?" Chu Weiming continued to ask.
"Not for sale." His answer was straightforward.
"Where's the medicine?" Chu Weiming didn't insist. He didn't expect to be able to buy acupuncture in one shop, because not every house sold this thing here, and most of them were for personal use.
"Not for sale." The old man continued to shake his chair as he gently stroked a strand of his beard and said leisurely.
This made Chu Weiming a little puzzled. I can understand if you don't sell acupuncture, but you don't sell medicine either? Even if he was a small businessman, there was no need for him to reject him so coldly. He was slightly annoyed. He calmed himself down and looked at the old man, and the corners of his mouth curled up.
"Yang Guan Chong Xu, Guan Yuan Yu knot, I think it's not good, but I advise you not to be greedy for a moment of comfort and lie down to look at others. It's easy to lie down and become paralyzed.”
The old man's entire body trembled, and he looked at Chu Weiming again. He stroked his waist and slowly stood up, looking at Chu Weiming. His waist was an old problem. How did this young man see it? He only took a glance at her and knew where her problem was? He had misjudged him today. This person's medical skills were quite extraordinary. At the very least, in terms of looking, listening, asking, and feeling, he could be called a top-notch Chinese medicine practitioner.
The young girl with an extraordinary temperament sitting at the counter finally raised her head. She knew about her grandfather's old illness, but she never thought that it would be exposed by a passerby who came to buy medicine. Although her grandfather had been ill for a long time, he was extremely tight-lipped and could not be known by outsiders.
The moment she raised her head, the medical skill in her hand fell to the ground with a thud and she cried out in shock.
" Hero!?"
Chu Weiming was startled by her and looked carefully. Wasn't this the girl from the park that day? He suddenly felt that the world was so small. How could he encounter such a thing? This was the first time he had gone out since he became a bodyguard. He wanted to turn around and leave, but it would seem too stingy and fearful to do so. After thinking about it carefully, he thought that they wouldn't affect him much. With this relationship, he might be able to buy acupuncture and the herbs he needed, so he smiled and said.
"What hero? You've got the wrong person.”
Mu Ling 'er was overjoyed. She had gotten it without any effort. She had not thought about anything for the past few days. She had been flipping through the ancient books about Qi Refinement Warriors at home again and again. She thought that she would never have the chance to see him again in this life. She did not expect that God would still care for her and actually send him to her!
"Grandpa! It was him! The person I met in the park that day!" She ran up excitedly and grabbed Chu Weiming's arm, afraid that he would run away.
"I said you got the wrong person." Chu Weiming forced a smile.
"This old man, Mu Donglai, has been a doctor for more than 30 years. I didn't expect to make a mistake today.”Mu Donglai's name was quite unique. After he heard his granddaughter talk about Chu Weiming, he thought it was a fantasy at first. However, after being dragged by her to see the tree that Chu Weiming had broken, he finally believed it a little. After all, as a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, he also agreed with the theory of qi and pulse. In that case, the young man in front of him might be a person with legendary internal energy!
Thinking of this, Mu Donglai's eyes burned with passion. With something like internal energy, he could easily use some of the incredible methods of Chinese medicine. As the saying went, one could die after hearing the truth in the morning. If he could witness someone using internal energy to diagnose someone, it would be a dream for him.
If this was true, not only was his illness incurable, but even his old friends who were terminally ill were not incurable! This was simply a heaven-sent opportunity!
