Miss Star, spoiled by her father and brother

Chapter 294 Auditor

"My mother lived to be 104 years old, and I am over 90 this year. After so much time, I had already planned to take these things to the grave, but I didn't expect that there would be a day when I could speak out loud."

The priest raised his eyes and said, "I have finished my story, little girl. It is your turn to answer my questions."

Xu Weiwei sat upright, thought about the wording, and said, "From your description, your mother and I should be from the same place, but from different periods."

The priest's mother and daughter knew the story of "Journey to the West", but had never heard of "Dream of Red Mansions". They knew Zhouyi, acupuncture and Chinese medicine, and had no traces of modern history. In addition, there were many foreign invasions. The priest's mother probably lived in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties.

At that time, the Manchus entered the country and the Ming Dynasty was in social turmoil. The priest's mother probably came to this place accidentally at that time.

"We both live on a planet called Earth, but I was born about four hundred years later than your mother."

Xu Weiwei talked about the cause of her death and some things about her past life.

Outside the house, her bodyguards were already waiting anxiously.

"Why has it taken you so long? It's time to come out. Do you know what's going on?"

Taohua was tangling her braids with her fingers out of boredom. When she heard the question, she shook her head and said, "I don't know either. Maybe Am added a few more acupuncture points today?"

"Can you come in and take a look?"

"Unless Eminem calls me in to study, no one is allowed to enter."

"Tsk,"

The bodyguard could only pace back and forth in the main room, checking the time from time to time. After walking around twice, he couldn't help but say, "It's too stuffy in the room, I'm going to go out for a walk."

Taohua held her chin up and said calmly, "There are ewes in the sheepfold who have just given birth. They are very alert and will attack people if they are frightened."

Bodyguard: "...What are you talking about? I just went out to get some fresh air. Why would you mention the sheepfold?"

The seemingly calm man was actually panicking. Was it because he hadn't done undercover work for too long or was he lax in this environment? Why could this person see through his motives at a glance? Was she some hidden master?

The bodyguard found a chair and sat down stiffly without mentioning the leak.

Outside the window, a cool breeze blew after the rain. Xu Weiwei pulled her shawl closer to her shoulders. "This is the situation. Your divination is very accurate."

"Like your mother, I don't belong to this world, and I don't know why I was brought here. I just want to live well, and on this premise, leave what I know to the world and let it continue to play a role."

"The Imperial Capital Galaxy where I live now was formed by the people of Earth in the past. In a sense, it is also your hometown. In the long course of history, Chinese medicine has been lost there. I thought I was the last person to understand it. I am very happy to come here and meet you."

The old woman was silent for a while, as if she was digesting what she heard. Xu Weiwei got out of bed and poured herself a glass of water, then filled another cup and drank it quietly.

"You said you studied this, so would it be convenient for me, an old lady, to test you?"

"Ah? Okay, of course." Xu Weiwei put down the teacup and straightened her body.

"What are the properties and effects of the herb Akebia?"

"Akebia is cold in nature, bitter in taste, and poisonous. It enters the heart, small intestine, and bladder meridians. It has the effects of promoting diuresis, relieving stranguria, clearing heart fire, and promoting menstruation and lactation."

"Black snake."

"It is mild in nature and sweet in taste. It enters the liver meridian. It can dispel wind, dredge the meridians, and stop spasms. It can treat rheumatism, hemiplegia caused by stroke, and polio."

"The seven emotions are compatible."

"From Shennong's Classic of Materia Medica, the seven emotions include: single action. Using one medicine to cure a disease; mutual assistance. Using two medicines with similar effects together to enhance their effects; mutual use. One medicine is the main one and the other is the auxiliary one; mutual killing. Using one medicine to eliminate the toxic side effects of another medicine; opposite. The combination of two medicines produces toxic side effects..."

"The seven emotions of ginseng."

"Ginseng is complementary to American ginseng and deer antler glue; it is complementary to salvia miltiorrhiza and aconite; it is incompatible with radish seeds..."

"Male, 45 years old, suffering from insomnia, night sweats, and premature ejaculation. What are the symptoms? How to treat it?"

"These symptoms are consistent with kidney yin deficiency and can be treated with acupuncture, using Ren meridian acupoints to nourish yin and reduce fire, such as the bilateral Sanyinjiao, Shenque, and Shenshu points. Then use traditional Chinese medicine that calms the nerves, such as Polygala tenuifolia and Coptis chinensis, to regulate the body."

……

Xu Weiwei was tested on dozens of questions, and she answered them all fluently, except for one difficult question that she had never even heard of.

The priest's eyes gradually changed from scrutiny to satisfaction and appreciation.

"You are very knowledgeable. I can see that you were a hard-working kid. Don't blame me, an old woman, for being arrogant just now, right?"

Xu Weiwei quickly said, "No way! You are my elder, so there is nothing wrong with you examining my knowledge."

"Then... do you agree to my request? Let me learn from you--" Xu Weiwei looked at the other party hesitantly.

Even the most serious priest couldn't help but be captured by her. Pretty, well-behaved, polite, and motivated, who wouldn't want such a child? She, who was not used to being close to others, also wanted to hug and touch her.

"You already know so much. What can I teach you by following me? If you just need my name, feel free to use it when you go out." The priest asked after taking a sip of tea.

Xu Weiwei did have this idea at first, but she suddenly changed her mind during the conversation.

"As I just said, your mother lived four hundred years away from my time. During this period, many things have been passed down to us and are already incomplete. For example, I don't know how to treat the pediatric diseases you just asked me about. And some of the things I learned before, I have forgotten in the past few years..."

"Just agree to it. I want to learn from you again." Xu Weiwei took two steps forward, held the priest's arm, looked up and asked sincerely.

She could hear that the priest's attitude had softened, and as long as she tried harder, he would most likely agree!

"My mother has set a rule that only the next priest in the tribe is qualified to learn these things. You are destined to leave, and I cannot accept you."

With a click, Xu Weiwei's heart sank completely.

"But if you insist on coming over to listen, that's your business. I won't bother with you."

Xu Weiwei's eyes slowly widened, and her cold heart instantly warmed up. She excitedly hugged the old man in front of her, jumped up and down twice, and said happily: "Thank you!"

Great! She got the qualification of auditor!
