Upon hearing this notification, Gao Jianfei immediately snapped out of his daze, rubbed his eyes a few times, and thought to himself, "Hua Tuo, I can finally see you!"
Gao Jianfei cautiously turned his head to look at Song Ying lying in his arms. She was sleeping soundly and sweetly. These past few nights, Gao Jianfei had indeed been relentlessly pursuing Song Ying, to the point that she was somewhat exhausted.
Gao Jianfei nodded secretly, and with a single thought...
Enter the den of ghosts!
At the same time, Gao Jianfei glanced at his current data...
"The Exorcist: Gao Jianfei"
Age: 22
Level: 4
Exorcism Point: 150/2060295
Experience: 2060245
Experience required to upgrade to Level 5 Exorcist: 9018110
Although there seems to be a long way to go before reaching the level 5 Exorcist, Gao Jianfei has already greatly benefited from his current level 4 Ghost and level 3 Talent Ghost abilities. However, Gao Jianfei isn't in a hurry to upgrade.
In the den of ghosts.
"Dear user, welcome to your ghost's lair. You can now meet Hua Tuo, a ghost with a level 4 medical skill." The intelligent program's voice sounded ingratiatingly.
"I understand." Gao Jianfei didn't say much, and ran off to the fourth floor of Ghost Den. At the door of room number 2.
The door was ajar.
Gao Jianfei casually pushed the door open. The scene inside was unlike Su Rongrong's room, which featured a vast ocean and a clear blue sky. Hua Tuo's room was quite simple.
Green hills, clear waters, streams, wild trees, a medicine shop, and a few thatched huts.
An elderly man dressed in coarse cloth, with a thin face and a broad forehead, sat in front of a thatched hut, refining medicine in a furnace. He held a palm-leaf fan in his hand, gently fanning the fire.
After seeing Gao Jianfei enter the room, he stopped what he was doing, looked up and smiled at Gao Jianfei, "Hello, Xiao Gao, thank you for bringing me here."
His eyes held a compassionate gaze, a gaze that evoked pity and a desire to help the world. One glance was enough to inspire admiration in anyone who looked at him.
He truly deserves to be called one of the most outstanding doctors in history!
Perhaps we should remove the word "one of"!
Gao Jianfei smiled and greeted Hua Tuo before walking over.
In fact, before meeting Hua Tuo, Gao Jianfei secretly considered and compared the medical skills of Hua Tuo and Hu Qingniu to see who was better.
Logically speaking, Hu Qingnian lived after Hua Tuo, and his medical skills were refined from the foundation laid by historical physicians such as Hua Tuo and Bian Que.
Furthermore, Hu Qingniu possessed internal energy cultivation skills, while Hua Tuo did not, and internal energy cultivation can sometimes yield remarkable results in treating illnesses.
In some respects, Hua Tuo's medical skills seem to be inferior to Hu Qingniu's.
However, the data provided by the Super Ghost Meter will never lie.
Hu Qingniu's medical skills are "intercontinental level".
Hua Tuo's medical skills were 'international level'.
Hu Qingniu is a level 3 ghost. Hua Tuo is a level 4 ghost.
In short, Hua Tuo's medical skills were superior to Hu Qingniu's. Furthermore, Hua Tuo possessed an intercontinental-level expertise in health preservation and an international-level expertise in folk remedies.
Filled with questions, Gao Jianfei approached Hua Tuo. Hua Tuo politely offered Gao Jianfei a stool and asked him to sit down.
Sitting face to face with Hua Tuo, Gao Jianfei couldn't help but sigh... Damn, putting everything else aside, back then, Guan Yu, the Second Master Guan, and the warlord Cao Cao, both sat respectfully next to the great Hua Tuo, seeking medical advice and medicine.
However, in front of Hua Tuo and Gao Jianfei, he appeared somewhat proper and respectful.
"Well, in conclusion, I should be more awesome than Guan Yu and Cao Cao! Hehe!" Gao Jianfei laughed shamelessly.
"By the way, Master Hua Tuo, it's said that you were killed by Cao Cao. Some history books say that. Is that true?" Gao Jianfei was quite interested in this kind of historical question.
However, as soon as the question was uttered, Hua Tuo trembled, stammering and unable to offer a coherent answer. He seemed to be frightened.
Gao Jianfei couldn't afford to dwell on such a sensitive issue and embarrass Hua Tuo, so he changed the subject and started talking about some professional medical issues.
After this conversation, Gao Jianfei understood just how great Hua Tuo was!
Simply put, Hua Tuo was not only an outstanding physician, but also a great medical scientist!
What is a medical expert? It is someone who not only treats patients but also possesses medical classics and writings!
In fact, the medical texts that Hua Tuo left behind are only a small part of one of his works—just a few pages of notes!
These few pages of notes alone have had an indelible inspirational and research effect on later generations of traditional Chinese medicine!
The vast number of other works have basically been lost to the dust of history!
This is absolutely a loss for China, and even the entire world!
In other words, it's understandable if later generations might think Hua Tuo's medical skills were mediocre and that he was merely a fraud. After all, all the essential medical knowledge he accumulated throughout his life has been lost!
As for physicians like Hu Qingniu, the medical techniques they studied were merely the few remaining pages of Hua Tuo's notes!
However, Gao Jianfei is now able to learn Hua Tuo's complete set of medical skills!
What a great learning experience this was!
Gao Jianfei's entire body became completely ablaze with heat!
He began to humbly learn from Hua Tuo, studying Hua Tuo's medical skills little by little.
Hua Tuo was a surgical master with unique insights into incision, craniotomy, and laparotomy. In addition, it must be said that Hua Tuo was also skilled in preparing folk remedies and pills!
Folk remedies are prescriptions that use special medicinal materials, or even extracts from the bodies of animals and insects, and are not recorded in regular medical books!
In today's society, numerous folk remedies circulate. Some are for treating the common cold, others for treating stomach, kidney, and liver ailments; there are even folk remedies for treating cancer!
However, most of these folk remedies are fraudulent.
However, Hua Tuo himself practiced medicine throughout his life, never ashamed to ask questions, and developed a total of 108 folk remedies, which had unique curative effects on various diseases!
This is the essence of Hua Tuo's life's work in medicine!
Gao Jianfei spent two hours learning Hua Tuo's skills in several medical fields, including surgery, acupuncture, and folk remedies, thoroughly!
Later, Gao Jianfei also learned Hua Tuo's health preservation techniques.
Five Animal Frolics!
The so-called "Five Animal Frolics" involves imitating the forms, movements, and expressions of five animals to stretch muscles and bones and unblock meridians. The five animals are tiger, deer, bear, monkey, and bird. Regularly practicing the Five Animal Frolics can improve hand and foot dexterity, promote blood circulation, and prevent and treat diseases. His student, Wu Pusang, used this method to strengthen his body and lived to the age of 90, still possessing sharp hearing and eyesight, and strong teeth and hair.
Of course, some versions of the Five Animal Frolics have been passed down in modern society. However, compared with the real Hua Tuo Five Animal Frolics, the Five Animal Frolics popular on the market today... some are pure imitations, and some are incomplete movements.
Only the Five Animal Frolics that Gao Jianfei learned today is the authentic and complete Hua Tuo Five Animal Frolics!
Gao Jianfei stood in front of Hua Tuo's thatched hut, his whole body relaxed, performing each movement of the Five Animal Frolics with perfect form. At the same time, he also compared this set of "medical and health care exercises" with internal martial arts.
The answer is... The Five Animal Frolics is a health-preserving exercise that can strengthen the body, prevent diseases, and prolong life, but it has no offensive properties and cannot store internal energy in the dantian.
"Heh, if this authentic Five Animal Frolics routine were sold on the market, it would probably be worth hundreds of millions... No, this thing is priceless!" After Gao Jianfei finished performing the Five Animal Frolics routine, he felt his muscles were flexible and his blood was flowing smoothly. It was much better than taking a sauna, soaking in a hot spring, or getting a full-body massage!
This time, Gao Jianfei gained a lot from meeting Hua Tuo!
His medical skills have now reached a state of perfection! There is absolutely no one in the world whose medical skills can rival Gao Jianfei's!
With the aid of acupressure techniques like the One-Finger Divine Skill and the Orchid Flicking Acupoint Technique, even if Hua Tuo were reborn, his medical skills would inevitably lag behind Gao Jianfei's!
Gao Jianfei left the den of iniquity with a sense of triumph, already knowing full well that... "Now, the possibility of me personally curing my mother is one hundred percent!"
Chapter 381 Mom, your son is back!
Chapter 381 Mom, your son is back!
Gao Jianfei returned home laden with spoils. Back in his bed from the den of iniquity, it was just barely dawn. He checked the time; it was a little past 7 a.m. Song Ying was still fast asleep. Gao Jianfei, feeling a bit tired himself, held Song Ying and fell asleep.
Having learned his lesson from the last time Zheng Cuiyun and Nie Xiaoxia barged in and saw something they shouldn't have, Gao Jianfei locked his bedroom door from the inside. Therefore, he no longer needed to worry about Zheng Cuiyun, that "crazy girl," barging in. He could just sleep peacefully.
Gao Jianfei woke up groggily at 8:30 in the morning and found Song Ying sitting in front of the dressing table with her back to him, putting on makeup. She was only wearing a thin, gossamer nightgown that beautifully outlined her figure. Gao Jianfei was immediately aroused and rushed over to carry Song Ying back to bed, where they made love again! At first, Song Ying was coquettish and resisted, but soon she was also immersed in the peak of pleasure, losing herself in the experience and even moaning loudly, which caused coughing sounds to come from the courtyard outside the window.
After a while, Gao Jianfei and Song Ying got dressed and went outside.
In the courtyard, Zheng Cuiyun and Li Yun were all looking at Gao Jianfei and Song Ying with strange eyes. The Emei women were all blushing. It was obvious that Gao Jianfei and Song Ying had made too much noise, so much so that all the Emei women in the courtyard had heard it clearly.
Recalling the almost hysterical moans and gasps she had made during her peak of pleasure, Song Ying wished she could disappear into the ground. She glared at Gao Jianfei fiercely before running off to the kitchen for breakfast.
Gao Jianfei, with his thick skin, chuckled awkwardly at Li Yun and the others.
Li Yun walked over and whispered, "Jianfei, can you two be a little more mindful of the impact of this kind of thing? Cuiyun and Xiaoxia are still virgins, and you're doing this... sigh..." Li Yun blushed as she said this. She was a young married woman, but she hadn't been involved in that kind of thing for over a decade. These days, hearing about Gao Jianfei and Song Ying's nightly intimacy often stirred a strange and exciting feeling within her.
"Um... I understand." Gao Jianfei then touched his hair a little embarrassedly. "Sister Li Yun, I'm going back to my hometown tomorrow. Well, you guys can finally have some peace and quiet. Hehe..."
Upon hearing that Gao Jianfei was about to leave, Li Yun felt a pang of sadness. She sighed, wanting to say something, but hesitated.
In the afternoon, Gao Jianfei called Song Ying and the women of Emei over and said with a smile, "Listen up, everyone. I have a set of health-preserving exercises that have almost been lost. Since I don't want this to go to waste, I'm going to teach you this 'Five Animal Frolics.' It's not martial arts, but for health and wellness, it's an invaluable treasure! It's much more powerful than yoga or anything like that. Watch my movements carefully!"
Before leaving, Gao Jianfei also planned to hand over Hua Tuo's Five Animal Exercises to some people who were close to him.
The women didn't know what Gao Jianfei was up to, but seeing that he spoke with great seriousness and didn't seem to be joking, they followed him and began to practice the movements one by one.
At first, when Zheng Cuiyun and the others saw Gao Jianfei imitating the movements and expressions of the Five Animals, they found it a bit comical and wanted to laugh. However, as they also began to imitate the movements with Gao Jianfei, gradually, the feeling of smooth blood circulation and overall comfort completely won them over. They were all secretly amazed.
In two hours, Gao Jianfei taught the women a complete set of Five Animal Frolics.
"Huh? Jianfei, you don't feel tired at all! In fact, even though you've worked up a sweat, you feel light as a feather!" Song Ying exclaimed, her eyes shining.
Originally, she had been tormented by Gao Jianfei for several nights. Unlike Gao Jianfei, who possessed internal energy and had no physical limitations, she was just an ordinary woman. Even she found it somewhat exhausting to be done multiple times a night. Therefore, she had been feeling drowsy and lacking energy for the past few days. However, today, after practicing the Five Animal Frolics with Gao Jianfei for two hours, she felt… incredibly refreshed! Her energy and spirit had completely recovered to their best!
"How amazing!" Song Ying exclaimed repeatedly.
Li Yun and the other Emei women were all masters of internal martial arts, and they understood the value of the Five Animal Frolics better than Song Ying. Li Yun walked directly to Gao Jianfei, "Jianfei, where did you learn this set of health-preserving movements? Although it's not an internal martial arts technique, its value is comparable! An ordinary person who practices it once a day can definitely prolong their life! Even maintain youth and a good figure… It's a treasure! This set of movements is simply a gem in the field of health preservation!"
Li Yun praised him without reservation.
Gao Jianfei gave Li Yun a thumbs up, "Sister Li Yun, you really know your stuff! Actually, I bought this set of gymnastics from an elderly Chinese man in Japan for a huge sum of money. It's an absolute collector's edition; there are very few people in the world who know it! Well, Sister Li Yun, once you've learned it, that's fine. Just practice it once a day to try and stay young forever. But don't just teach it to anyone else."
"Yes!" Li Yun nodded solemnly. "Don't worry, Jianfei, I would never easily pass on such a precious thing to others unless I have your permission!"
The afternoon was spent practicing the Five Animal Frolics, and everyone had a great time.
As evening approached, Gao Jianfei and Song Ying were about to go hand in hand to attend the birthday celebration of Liu Feng's grandfather, the highly respected Old Master Liu of the Liu family in Beijing.
"Oh no! Jianfei!" Song Ying suddenly exclaimed. "This afternoon, I was so busy playing the Five Animal Frolics that I didn't even prepare a gift for Grandpa Liu... What... what should we do?"
Song Ying was extremely anxious. She knew that Old Master Liu was a very important figure in Beijing, and besides, the Liu family had put in a lot of effort to help Song Ying become the number one host of the Genius Challenge! Now that it was Old Master Liu's 80th birthday, Song Ying and Gao Jianfei should definitely choose an expensive gift!
