Chapter 95: Ren He Tang (Seeking Recommendations, Seeking Monthly Tickets)
"Brother Wei, stop the car for a moment, I'm dizzy, let me get out and get some fresh air!" Xiao Yu felt very strange about what was happening here and wanted to go down and take a look, so he said to Wei Jun who was driving.
"Come on, hurry up!" Wei Jun said and stopped the car not far from the isolation belt raised by the traffic police. The rear is the scene of the accident, so there are no cars passing through here for the time being.
Xiao Yu got out of the car and opened his eyes to look around, but now there is no yin evil spirit here, not even a hint of ghostly aura. Xiao Yu looked far into the distance at the forest belt, but still didn't find anything. At this time, Xiao Yu's heart was filled with doubt, could it be that a strand of yin evil spirit just happened to drift here? Not caused by humans or ghosts?
Xiao Ye shook his head, thinking that he might be too sensitive. He was always associating everything with ghosts!
"Brother Jun, let's go!" Xiao Yu said as he returned to the car and spoke to Wei Jun.
Suddenly, Xiao Yu's eyes caught a glimpse of a black shadow flashing by the railing on the highway, and Xiao Yu quickly turned his head to look but saw nothing. He couldn't help but laugh at himself in his heart, wondering what was wrong with him today?
Wei Jun drove the car into Deep Sea City, and when they passed by Ren He Tang, Xiao Ye asked Wei Jun to stop the car. The two walked into Ren He Tang together. The area of Deep Sea Ren He Tang was not too large, only over 500 square meters. As soon as they entered the main door of Ren He Tang, all were counters selling Western medicine. The two bypassed these counters and came to the innermost part. The design of the innermost part was decorated in the style of a traditional Chinese pharmacy during the Ming and Qing dynasties.
Against the wall, a long row of medicine cabinets seemed like a dragon, and as soon as Xiao Yu walked in, he smelled the fragrance of medicine wafting through the air. In front of the counter, people were bustling about, with many grabbing at the Chinese medicine, resulting in not enough assistants to grab the medicine, leaving Xiao Yu and Wei Jun with no choice but to wait there.
Xiao Yu looked at the long row of medicine cabinets in front of him and nodded involuntarily. Renhe Tang was indeed a pharmacy that claimed to have the most complete Chinese medicinal materials in the country, and just by looking at the medicinal materials here, it could be seen that many precious medicinal materials were placed in the medicine cabinets.
"What medicine are you young men planning to buy?" said a hoarse but loud voice beside him while Xiao Yu was looking around.
Xiao Yu heard the words and turned his head to look, an old man was walking over from afar in the counter, this old man's hair and beard were all white, looking from a distance he seemed to be over seventy years old, however as he walked closer the old man had a ruddy complexion, full of energy and looked like someone in his sixties, it could be seen that the old man had grasped the essence of nourishing life.
When the old man asked, Xiao Yu thought for a moment and saw that there was a consultation desk on the edge of the counter, with four treasures of the study on it. Xiao Yu secretly found it strange, turned his head to look elsewhere, and found that the partners in Renhe Hall actually used "Mao" pen to write words, guessing that this was also one of the characteristics of Renhe Hall!
Xiao Yu walked towards the consultation desk, took a look at the "Mao" pen on it, pointed with his hand and asked: "Can this be used?" "No way, this is Old Yue's personal stationery. If you want to write something, go over there!" Just as Xiao Yu finished speaking, a young man walked over from the side and said so, pointing to the other end of the counter.
Yue Lao is a master doctor from the Renhe Tang Beijing headquarters, with exceptional medical skills and a humble personality. He answers all questions posed by his colleagues thoroughly and never brushes them off. Despite being a specially appointed expert, he doesn't put on airs around the leadership of Renhe Tang. As a result, everyone in Renhe Tang, from top to bottom, has a deep respect for Yue Lao, half due to his medical expertise and half due to his character.
Yue Lao felt very strange when he saw Xiao You walking towards the consultation desk, and unexpectedly, he suggested using stationery. He couldn't help but look at Xiao You in surprise. Nowadays, few young people use brush pens, so Yue Lao wanted to see how Xiao You wrote. Just as he was about to speak, he was interrupted by his partner.
"No need, young man, you just use it! Stationery is meant to be used!" At this time, the old man also walked over from the counter.
"Respectful old fellow!" The young shopkeeper showed great respect towards the elderly man.
Xiao Yu didn't hesitate, picked up the "Mao" pen, dipped it in the inkstone, and suddenly paused for a moment. Earlier, Xiao Yu hadn't noticed that when he picked up the pen to dip it, he found that the tip of this pen was exceptionally smooth and slippery. He couldn't help but bring it closer to his eyes to take a closer look. This "Mao" pen had a long and sturdy nib, and it turned out to be a genuine mouse-whisker brush.
Although there are many places selling mouse-whisker brushes in the country, Xiao Ye knows that they are all fake. This is because there are hardly any large mice in the country now, and the whiskers of current mice are extremely short, making it impossible to make 'hair' brushes. The so-called mouse-whisker brushes in the country are basically made from imported foreign cashmere mixed with other animal hair.
"Good pen!" Xiao Yu sighed and began writing a prescription on the paper.
Seeing Xiao Yu's appearance and hearing his words, the old man 'exposed' a self-satisfied expression. He didn't expect that Xiao Yu was also a connoisseur. This pen was obtained by him with great difficulty, and it was one of his treasured possessions. This time, he brought it to the deep sea on purpose.
Xiao Yu wrote the prescription quickly, like floating clouds and flowing water. Yue Lao saw Xiao Yu writing cursive script very fast and couldn't help but shake his head. The posture of writing cursive script, the way of holding the pen, and the force used are all very important, so it is extremely slow to write well, and it's impossible to write well without more than a decade of diligent practice.
At first, he thought Xiao Yu would give him a surprise, so when Xiao Yu wanted to use his own "Mao" pen, he was stopped by his partner, but he still let Xiao Yu use it, because no matter what people do, they like to meet like-minded people. But seeing Xiao Yu's writing speed, he knew that this young man was good at using the "Mao" pen and wouldn't write well anyway.
Because writing good and fast 'Mao' pen calligraphy requires decades of accumulation, it's impossible otherwise. So when he saw Xiao Ye being so young yet writing so quickly, he instinctively thought Xiao Ye was just a half-baked artist.
Xiao Yu wrote it well, blew on it twice, waited for the ink to dry, and handed it over to his partner on the side, saying: "Just follow this prescription!"
"Little Liu, give me the prescription! I'll take it. If I don't catch a few doses of 'medicine' every day, my hands will come to life!" Yue Lao said, stretching out his hand to receive the prescription from that fellow.
This is also a habit of Old Yue, no matter how busy the day is, there are three things that must be done every day. First, he has to grasp a few medicinal herbs every day to practice his hands. In Old Yue's words, if you don't touch the medicinal herbs for two days, when you do, you will feel unfamiliar with them.
Second, practice 'Mao' pen calligraphy for an hour. Mr. Yue's original words are that if you don't practice for a day, it's like sitting on pins and needles.
Three, read medical books or case studies for two hours every day.
These three things, Old Yue has insisted on for thirty years, and except for the irresistible factors of human power, they have never been interrupted.
Yue Lao took the paper from his assistant, scanned it briefly, and suddenly froze. He looked at Fangzi with a shocked expression, then turned to look at Xiao Yu again.
The gaze directed at Xiao Yu was filled with an expression of incredulity, then shifted to the words on the side of the medicine package, muttering: "Good handwriting, good handwriting!" A traditional Chinese doctor, especially an older one, would have beautiful calligraphy, because when they first started learning medicine, ballpoint pens and fountain pens were scarce, even if their masters had them, they wouldn't let them use them, they had to use brush pens.
So over the decades, almost all veteran Chinese doctors can write 'Mao' pen calligraphy, especially some famous inheritors, writing good 'Mao' pen calligraphy is a compulsory course. Yue Lao's 'Mao' pen calligraphy is even more outstanding, but at this time, seeing Xiao Yu's handwriting was indeed shocked.
Xiao You, since receiving the legacy of Zhong Kui, has eliminated any traces of imitating his predecessors in his calligraphy, and instead possesses a unique style with a 'refined' spirit and bone structure, which can be considered as an independent school.
It's worth noting that Yue Lao also just broke free from the shackles of his predecessors last year, gradually revealing his own style.
Xiao Ye was still so young, not even thirty years old yet! But his skills were better than those of Yue Lao who had practiced diligently for a lifetime. This made Yue Lao, who usually took pride in his own 'mature' calligraphy, involuntarily reveal a bitter smile.
Yue Lao is already over 70 years old, and has long passed the age of being competitive. After being shocked, he admired Xiao Yu, who was able to reach such a state before the age of 30. It's impossible without both talent and hard work.
Yue Lao took a deep look at Xiao Yu, and when he looked at Fang Zi, he was no longer looking at the words but at Fang Zi himself.
The more Yue Lao looked at it, the more shocked he was. This prescription is indeed 'wonderful'. Even if he had written it himself, he wouldn't have been able to come up with a better one. The combination of various tonifying herbs in this prescription is very reasonable. Although they are all strong tonifying herbs, after being adjusted by the various medicinal materials in the prescription, these violently tonifying herbs were all adjusted into mild and warm tonifying herbs that nourish without causing stagnation.
Looking at the prescription, Fang Yue's old brow furrowed, he felt that this prescription was missing something. Ah yes, it lacked a warm and nourishing main medicine.
Yue Lao asked Xiao Yu, "Is this prescription written by a great master?" "Of course it was written by my brother himself!" Hearing Yue Lao's words, Wei Jun said with a proud face beside him. He saw all of Yue Lao's shock and was proud to have Xiao Yu as his brother.
"Hey kid, where did you get this prescription from? This prescription is incomplete, missing the main medicine. Luckily, our store has high-quality wild ginseng. Do you want to add it?" Old Yue heard that Wei Jun said it was written by Xiao Yun and didn't think much of it. In his opinion, Xiao Yun had no idea where he got this prescription from, nor did he know that the prescription was incomplete, so he kindly reminded him.
"No need, old sir, we have ginseng, just lacking these supplementary 'medicines'!" Xiao Yu heard the kindness in Yue Lao's words and smiled.
"Haha, young man, this prescription has a strong and fierce medicinal power. If ginseng can't balance it well, I'm afraid that with your current physical condition, you might not be able to withstand the supplement and something will go wrong!" Yue Lao said with a light smile, glancing at Wei Jun, seeing Xiao Yu's prescription, then looking at Wei Jun's pale face, knowing that this medicine was prescribed for him, so he advised.
