Chapter 31: Genius Gu Qingchen

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Doctor Hua was very strict with his profession.

Few people in modern times knew about medicinal herbs. Even if Gu Qingchen had some foundation, it was impossible for her to completely identify all the medicinal herbs here in three days.

Therefore, Doctor Hua felt that Gu Qingchen’s words were a little exaggerated.

Gu Qingchen also knew Doctor Hua’s worries. This was understandable.

“Why don’t master test me to see if I pass?”

Doctor Hua raised his eyebrows. This disciple of his was quite confident. Fine, he shall give Gu Qingchen a blow.

It was also time to let this girl experience her master’s ability.

“That’s fine too. Then I’ll first test you on a simple one. What are the characteristics and effects of the crown prince ginseng?”

Gu Qingchen did not hesitate. She opened her mouth and answered, “The crown prince ginseng is also known as the child ginseng and false starwort. The dried root is used as medicine. The root is long and has a vertical shape. The lower part of the stem is purple.

“It is mild in nature, sweet in taste, and slightly bitter.

“The main treatment is to nourish qi and strengthen the spleen. It can also nourish the body and lungs, as well as for health maintenance.”

......

Gu Qingchen answered very methodically. Her calm and composed appearance made Doctor Hua take a few more glances at her.

“These are the most basic things. Let me test you again. Tell me about the medicinal value of the Chinese Pulsatilla Root.”

This question seemed simple, but there was a hidden meaning behind it.

Gu Qingchen only thought for a moment before she said, “The Chinese Pulsatilla Root has an extremely high medicinal value. It has a cooling effect, detoxification, cooling blood, and stopping dysentery.”

Speaking up to this point, Gu Qingchen paused and saw a trace of craftiness in Doctor Hua’s eyes. Before Doctor Hua opened his mouth, she continued.

“However, there are also some plants in Province G that are also commonly known as ‘Chinese Pulsatilla Root’. The most common ones are Herba Gnaphalii Hypoleuci and Chinese Cinquefoil Herb.

“The effect of the Herba Gnaphalii Hypoleuci is to dispel phlegm, cough, asthma, and rheumatism. On the other hand, the Chinese Cinquefoil Herb is to clear away heat, detoxify, cool blood, and stop dysentery.

“These two herbs cannot be compared to the real Chinese Pulsatilla Root, but they are easily confused.

“Master, are you satisfied with my answer?”

Looking at Gu Qingchen’s smiling eyes, Doctor Hua knew that he had been fooled by this girl. He thought that he could use this opportunity to lecture her, but he did not expect it to be like this.

However, even so, Doctor Hua was still a little excited. He did not expect that a random disciple would not only be lucky but also be able to guess the questions that he randomly came up with. She also knew about pharmacology and medicinal herbs.

Tsk tsk tsk, Doctor Hua even suspected that God had sent this disciple to him on purpose.

This time, Doctor Hua smiled with his eyes narrowed as he stroked his beard leisurely. No matter how he looked at Gu Qingchen, he felt very comfortable.

Next, Doctor Hua tested Gu Qingchen on a lot of topics related to medicine. Gu Qingchen’s answer made him very satisfied.

Such a promising disciple was picked up by him. It was really more exciting than winning the lottery.

“I’ll test you one last time. What do you think this medicinal herb is?”

Doctor Hua took out a medicinal herb from a medicine box. It was a root-shaped plant with no stems or leaves. It looked a little ugly and was placed in front of Gu Qingchen.

“If you can tell me what this is, I’ll start teaching you medical skills.”

Gu Qingchen was slightly stunned. She did not see this plant when she was identifying the medicinal herbs the day before yesterday. Doctor Hua must have put it in during these two days.

In Gu Qingchen’s memory, this medicinal herb did not appear in those herbal books. Gu Qingchen put on a glove, picked up the root with her index finger and thumb, and carefully observed it, then, she put the herb under her nose and sniffed it.

Comparing the details of those medicinal herbs, it seemed that none of them met the standard.

Gu Qingchen looked at Doctor Hua for a long time with a hint of uncertainty in her eyes. She asked hesitantly, “Master, are you sure that this thing is a medicinal herb?”

Doctor Hua seemed to be very confident that Gu Qingchen would not recognize it. The corners of his eyes were almost raised to the tip of his eyebrows.

“Hehe, I don’t even know what this is. I picked it up outside. I don’t believe that this girl can recognize it.”

Reading her master’s thoughts, Gu Qingchen’s face turned dark.

At that moment, Gu Qingchen really wanted to ask, “Master, can I beat you up?”

“I have never seen this herb before. From its shape, color, and smell, it is not a medicinal herb. Perhaps I am ignorant. May I ask, Master, what kind of medicinal herb is this treasure of yours?”

“Ahem, about that... you’re not ready yet. I’ll teach you again in the future. Although you haven’t identified the last one, I see that you do have the potential to learn medicine. I’ll make an exception and teach you medical skills from tomorrow onwards.”

Doctor Hua coughed lightly to cover up his embarrassment. He would never tell Gu Qingchen that he had casually used this nonsense thing to tease her.

Although Gu Qingchen knew what Doctor Hua was thinking, she did not expose him.

Anyway, Doctor Hua had said that he would teach her medical skills from tomorrow onwards. Her goal had been achieved.

“Yes, thank you, Master. I will study hard.”

Looking at the humble Gu Qingchen, who looked submissive and respected him, Doctor Hua felt very comfortable.

“Alright, from now on, come over every night after school. I will teach you some basic medical knowledge.

“Oh, right, Room 1208. Don’t forget it.”

It was better to leave the troublesome matters that he could not handle to this disciple.

No wonder many doctors liked to take in disciples. It turned out that having a disciple by his side really saved him a lot of trouble.

“Master, can you tell me who exactly is that Young Master Rong? Is there anything I need to pay attention to when I deliver the medicine?”

Gu Qingchen felt that it was better to get to know this guy who was difficult to deal with even for his master.

If she went over without knowing anything, she might make a fool of herself.

When Doctor Hua heard the word “Young master Rong”, he frowned. It seemed that Young Master Rong was a person who gave him a headache.

“Well... you’ll know when you get there. Anyway, your mission is to make him take the medicine. You can think of the method yourself.”

After Doctor Hua said that, he went back to the backyard as if he had gotten rid of the sticky candy.

Looking at Doctor Hua’s vigorous figure, Gu Qingchen’s emotion was in a mess.

Master... shouldn’t he be the most “serious” spokesperson?

Why was her master so unreliable!

In the next few days, Gu Qingchen did not go to Dynasty Hotel because she had to go to school.

Doctor Hua said that Young Master Rong would stay in City Y for a period of time, so Gu Qingchen decided to visit him on the weekend.

In the past few days, Mr. Gu had been busy with his own matters. Gu Qingchen told her family that she was going to study at night, but in fact, she came to the Hundred Herb Hall.

Doctor Hua was indeed a man of his word. When he taught Gu Qingchen medical skills, he was very attentive, and Gu Qingchen also benefited a lot.

For the first time, Gu Qingchen felt that her master was really a doctor at the level of a master, and not a charlatan.
