Chapter 39 Apprenticeship Ceremony

“Grandpa Chen, I gathered all the herbs.”

 In the small courtyard in the middle of the mountain, Lu Qing showed the medicine basket to Dr. Chen with some breathlessness.

 After digging the ox bone grass, he rushed up all the way, for fear of running out of time.

 The old doctor looked at the herbs in the medicine basket and nodded with satisfaction.

“That’s good, it’s hard to believe that you can really collect all these herbs.”

“Grandpa Chen, what do you mean by this?” Lu Qing was a little confused.

 The people in the village knew that Lu Qing was going to be assessed by Dr. Chen today, so they had been paying attention.

Seeing Lu Qing running down the mountain, they were all overjoyed to learn that it was the old doctor who invited the village elders to the mountain to witness the ceremony where he officially admitted Lu Qing into the family.

This scene not only made Lu Qing stunned for a while, but also old doctor Chen.

“Etiquette cannot be abolished. Since it is to worship a master, there is no way to not show the etiquette of becoming a master.”

“It can be said that without the leadership of Ah Qing and his grandfather, there might not be Jiuli Village today.”

Then he said to Uncle Zhang: "Old Zhang, Lu Qing is a very smart boy. It is a blessing for me to have him as my disciple, so don't worry, I will definitely teach him well."

"Do you know why I set the scope of the assessment near the village?" the old doctor asked.

“Old Zhang, you must not do it. I know your life is not easy, so there is no need to be polite.”

“I hope you won’t hesitate to accept these small gifts.”

"Old doctor, you are really hurting us." The leader, Uncle Zhang, said quickly, "We should thank you." "Since you came to our Jiuli Village, you have cured us of so many illnesses. We will always keep your kindness in mind."

To be honest, he really didn’t expect the apprenticeship ceremony.

 Uncle Zhang took a basket from a young man behind him.

 The old doctor seemed to have something in his words.

 Now that I heard that Lu Qing has finally passed the examination and will be officially accepted as a disciple by the old doctor, how can I not be excited?

 The other thing is that he never expected that the people in the village would do this to him.

 So unless you encounter it when you are out, you will use your special ability to check it.

 Lu Qing couldn't help but reflect on herself.

 Perhaps subconsciously, I thought that there would be no precious medicinal materials near a village where people come and go.

The villagers had seen that Lu Qing went to the old doctor Chen every day to learn things, and they once thought that he was already the old doctor's disciple.

 Normally, he really didn't pay attention to the herbs near the village.

 Old Doctor Chen was stunned for a moment, then quickly stepped forward to help Uncle Zhang up.

Seeing all the villagers bowing to him in unison, even with Old Doctor Chen's decades of qi-nurturing skills, he couldn't help but feel a little shaken in his heart.

 …

"Now that Ah Qing is lucky enough to be favored by you and become your teacher, it is a great blessing for him. I also hope that the old doctor will understand his lonely life. Even if he makes a careless mistake in the future, he can be more tolerant and give him a few more opportunities. .”

“Ah Qing, go and tell Dr. Chen, we will go up soon!”

After several refusals, Old Doctor Chen finally took a few eggs and a piece of bacon from the basket as an apprenticeship ceremony prepared by the villagers for Lu Qing.

“It’s a pity that Ah Qing’s grandfather fell ill during the flight and failed to receive good treatment, so he died early.”

“Fellow fellows, please get up first. If you do this, you will really be ashamed of me.”

 Some villagers also brought some rice, flour, eggs, meat and other things.

"Old Doctor Chen, we are poor in the countryside and don't have anything valuable to offer. The eggs and bacon here, as well as the rice noodles at the back, are regarded as our apprenticeship ceremony for Aqing. I hope you can Don’t take it personally.”

Lu Qing looked at this scene and secretly made a note, planning to make up the money after he went back.

Uncle Zhang suddenly became excited: "Then I will thank you, old doctor, for his grandfather and parents!"

As for Lu Qing, he was already shocked.

 Old doctor Chen was already waiting at the entrance of the small courtyard.

　　八八.二一六.二.一二三

Hearing this, Lu Qing couldn't help but feel ashamed.

“Well done Ah Qing, he is indeed the smartest kid in our village. He really passed the exam.”

"That's because there are not many herbs growing near the village. There are only about a dozen of them." The old doctor stroked his beard and said, "You can dig up these herbs intact and bring them up within an hour. , one can imagine that I pay a lot of attention to these herbs in my daily life."

It seems that my mentality is still a bit too casual.

Uncle Zhang continued: "It's a shame to say that most of us in Jiuli Village fled from famine elsewhere."

 Old doctor Chen saw that Lu Qing was silent, but thought he had acquiesced.

 First, some of the things Uncle Zhang said were not in the memory of the original owner.

He smiled and said: "Okay, you passed this test. Now go and ask the village elders to come forward."

In addition to the village elders, some other villagers at home also came up to watch the fun.

 I thought it was enough to just kowtow to the old doctor a few times in the presence of everyone.

 “Thank you all fellow villagers for coming to participate in my apprenticeship ceremony, old man.”

 As for the others, nothing can be collected.

Even the old doctor knew what medicinal materials were available near the village, but he had special powers, but he failed to do this, which was really not the right thing to do.

 Seeing everyone coming up, he stepped forward and bowed.

“Okay, okay, now our village is finally going to have a doctor!”

"Village elders please come up?" Lu Qing was a little dazed.

“Old Zhang, what you said is serious. I just performed my duty as a doctor and I can’t deserve any favors.” The old doctor smiled lightly.

 After speaking, two more young men came up carrying two bags of rice and noodles.

 Speaking, he handed over the basket in his hand.

Lu Qing returned to the small courtyard in the middle of the mountain. Not long after, the village elders came to the mountain neatly dressed one by one.

“Whether we are kind or not, we naturally know in our hearts.”

 “I don’t know.” Lu Qing shook his head.

 The formal apprenticeship ceremony was more complicated than he imagined.

But if you really try to find out how many kinds of medicinal materials there are around the village, you won’t find any.

“Yes, if I want to officially accept you as a disciple, I have to have some witnesses present, otherwise it will be too much.”

 Other villagers also learned to bow to the old doctor.

 “Yes, I’ll go now!”

"And we failed to protect his son and daughter-in-law, so they were deceived and ran away due to misfortune, leaving only two lonely children, A Qing and Xiao Yan."

 Lu Qing was delighted and ran down the mountain again.

 But later Lu Qing told them that he could only be regarded as an apprentice of Old Doctor Chen now, and was not yet qualified to officially join the old Doctor's disciples.

“It was a difficult era. If it hadn’t been for the support and guidance of Grandpa Ah Qing, we might not have been able to escape the disaster. We survived all the way and found the place where we are now.”

 Some village elders even put on clothes that they would only wear during the New Year.

 After saying that, Uncle Zhang gave Old Doctor Chen a deep bow.

 After such an episode, the old doctor invited the villagers into the yard.

 Then, under the witness of everyone, Lu Qing began his official apprenticeship.
