Hearing this, Wu Shaobai first opened the lid to see how much medicine he had boiled. Then he picked up the medicine furnace and picked out a few pieces of charcoal. After reducing the heat, he said under the old man's puzzled gaze,
"The fire should be weaker. If the temperature is too high, the bitter dew pill inside will dissolve. At that time, the medicinal strength will be a little mixed and not too pure. Therefore, I have to help you take care of this medicine for another three quarters of an hour. It won't be out of the pot in an hour.”
“……”
The old man thought for a moment and nodded.
"That makes sense."
"Yes."
Wu Shaobai replied and took a bowl. He picked up two or three chrysanthemums from the dustpan and threw them into the bowl. After rinsing them with water, he said,
"I've accepted you as my master."
"I know. Gao Fengshan's grand disciple, right?"
"You know him?"
"I've heard of his Doujin Hall back then. However, because of a few rhymes, I made a few mistakes in the names of the medicinal herbs. In order to prevent anyone from mistakenly thinking that I used them, I specially asked someone to tell him to correct them.”
"I see…"
Wu Shaobai nodded,
"My master's name is Yu Xi. I've been cultivating with him for half a year, and Master and Mistress have been very good to me. They treat me like their own son. Don't worry about me, I definitely won't feel guilty.”
The old man smiled."
"What's wrong? Have you decided on this one?"
"…What do you think? I'm confident that I can convince my parents, but it's mainly you.”
"What if I don't agree?"
Hearing this, Wu Shaobai smiled,
"If you didn't agree, you would have asked Second Uncle to pull me back. Right? In the car, Second Uncle was still talking. I can see that he's quite resentful. I wonder why our eldest grandson of Old Wu's family went to become a disciple of a low-class crosstalk performer…But actually, you also know that I like this. I understand. Whether it's you or my parents, you want me to inherit the family business and pass on the medical skills of the Old Wu family. My parents want me to join my grandfather's side and join the army…But, grandfather, whether it's you or my parents, no one has ever asked me what I like, right? Since I was young, I have no problem learning medicine from you. I also knew from a young age that as the eldest grandson, I had to carry some things. The path of medicine was boundless. It was not enough just to have talent. One needed a lot of clinical practice, travel thousands of miles, and meet thousands of people. Only then could one not take a human life lightly. But…"
He recalled his experiences in his previous life and suddenly smiled confidently.
"But I don't think I'm bad. Putting everything else aside, my heart is actually as clear as a mirror. If I hadn't restored the Taiyi Purple Gold Bar on the fifth day after I became your disciple, you might have already caught me and brought me back.”
Hearing his words, the old man smiled."
"There are many great medicines of the Grand Unity realm that can cure evil spirits and ghosts. I was indeed surprised that you could restore the purple gold ingot. Moreover, the experiment had proved that it was indeed effective. It had already achieved the effect of Zhang Dachang's case of poisoning the gods. They're already researching clinical trials on how to treat mental illnesses, and you're indeed a great contributor to this.”
"Yes, it's also because of this that you pressed down on my parents and wanted to see them again, right?”
"Yes."
The old man responded and sat on the stool as steady as Mount Tai.
"I also want to see if you went out in a fit of anger or if you really don't like our family's business.”
"A doctor has the heart of a parent."
Wu Shaobai shook his head,
"Since I'm in danger, I'll be saving lives for the rest of my life. However, this doesn't hinder me and my master from learning these things…so there's actually no difference between the two. Listening to crosstalk and laughing out loud can ease one's mind. When the heart is wide, everything will be smooth. Wasn't this what medical practitioners pursued? I haven't been slacking off in the past six months. Believe me, let's put in some effort into studying the wormwood. I believe that as long as this thing can be thoroughly studied, we will definitely eliminate malaria, one of the biggest infectious diseases that plague mankind.”
"Then why don't you study it yourself? This is a great merit."
"Saving people is a great merit. Grandpa, I want peace of mind. Fame and fortune are like floating clouds to me.”
“……”
After saying this, the old man suddenly fell silent.
He looked at his grandson, whom he hadn't seen for half a year…He vaguely felt that his grandson was very different…He seemed unfamiliar, but also familiar…and there was a kind of…absurd unreal feeling.
After some thought, he asked,"
"Have you really thought it through? He still had to go to university and continue to be a doctor. If you do these two things well, I'll allow you to perform crosstalk. I'll even personally prepare a disciple acceptance gift for you.”
Wu Shao Bai's eyes lit up.
"Really?"
"Naturally."
"Deal!"
He laughed.
"With your words, my parents will depend on you. Don't worry, Grandpa. University…Let's go to Peking University. Isn't Third Uncle teaching there? It'll be convenient for me to take leave. If he wanted to practice medicine…he would continue to practice in Doujin Hall. Old Le's generation isn't particularly outstanding, so I'll have to help maintain the reputation of Doujin Hall. If I do these two things well, I really won't give up on crosstalk.”
The old man didn't mind. He just stared at the medicine stove with his teacup in hand.
"As long as you can hold on."
"Don't worry! A gentleman's word?"
"A whip from a fast horse."
"Deal!"
Wu Shaobai laughed.
