Liu Shimei still ignored him. He finished writing the prescription and handed it to Xu Xian. “Please go and get the medicine for the old man according to this prescription. Avoid the sore and rub it on the swollen skin to reduce the swelling first. Don’t give yesterday’s medicine today. The medicinal properties of the two things were a little conflicting. If he used them together, there would be more problems.”
“Oh.” Although Xu Xian was a waiter in the pharmacy, he knew little about pharmacology.
Firstly, he did not have the time to learn, and secondly, even if he had the time, he would not have the chance to learn!
Therefore, he would listen to whatever Liu Shimei said. However, when he saw how smoothly and efficiently Liu Shimei worked, he felt that he had to work hard to learn some medical theories as soon as possible!
After Xu Xian went out to grab the medicine, the old man shouted in dissatisfaction, “Miss, what’s the meaning of this? So you’re not going to care about this sore?”
“Alright, Old Sir, stop pretending in front of me!” Liu Shimei sighed and ma.s.saged her temples. “If I’m not wrong, you’re the famous Ghost Doctor Qi Yang, right?”
The old man was stunned. His shocked expression was as if he had swallowed a boiled egg!
Liu Shimei smiled and said, “The legendary Ghost Doctor Qi Yang who revived the dead is more willing to use poison to save people than to use medicine to save people! Your infamous name is like thunder in my ears!”
“You’re still young, what do you know?” the old man continued to deny it.
However, the way he avoided her gaze meant that Liu Shimei’s guess was correct.
Liu Shimei did not expose him further and said, “Old Master Qi is too playful. There’s no point in showing off my medical skills in front of you. You can also rely on your own methods to deal with the swelling and pus.”
Hearing her words, the old man rubbed his nose and asked in puzzlement, “Did I not act well?”
“Didn’t you deceive the others?” Liu Shimei smiled.
“Then why can’t I fool you?” The old man, who was Ghost Doctor Qi Yang, admitted his ident.i.ty and asked in confusion, “Young Lady, you’re still young. Even if you’ve heard of my name, you shouldn’t be able to recognize me after just meeting me twice!”
Liu Shimei did not answer his question. Instead, she asked, “So, Elder Qi, are you here to play or do you have other motives?”
Qi Yang’s eyes lit up when she asked about his goal. “You’re not very fun, but you’re very talented in medicine. It’s a pity that you’re only an apprentice with your abilities. I heard that you have the t.i.tle of an apprentice in the Zheng Medical Hall, but you’re also a handyman?”
It seemed that he had heard a lot of gossip about her. It was obvious that her performance yesterday had caught his attention!
Liu Shimei knew that once some people achieved a certain mastery in a domain, they might rejuvenate and become young again.
The meaning of this rejuvenation was not referring to the body, nor was it just behavior, but the state of mind.
Innocence, innocence, returning to innocence.
When this old man reached a level of mastery, he returned to simplicity. He usually did not use his naked eyes to sec people and things, but his heart. Of course, in the eyes of the world, the words and actions of such people were also quite different.
The Ghost Doctor Qi Yang probably did not have much fun practicing medicine and saving people, so he just wanted to have some fun.
In other words, he was looking for a soulmate in a high mountain and flowing water, looking for someone who could ‘play poisons’ with him!
She was a little tempted, but she did not show it on her face. She smiled and said, “So, Old Master Qi, you don’t need me to prescribe medicine for your symptoms, right? Will you be better tomorrow?”
Qi Yang waved his hand and shook his head helplessly. “Little girl, you’re too boring. Can’t you play with this old man for a few more days?”
“I can play with you, but I can’t let it affect my work.”
Liu Shimei looked up at the sky speechlessly..
