Marry first and try love: After a flash marriage, the boss becomes wild and promiscuous

Chapter 1949 Daoist Healer

Caibao took out a piece of yellow paper from his pocket, then pulled out a cinnabar pen, and began to stare at the ceiling.

Everyone followed her to look at the ceiling, wondering what was so interesting about the large steel structure of the greenhouse.

Even Xiaobai squatted there and looked up at the sky with him.

After a long while, Caibao said slowly, "I can't remember."

What?

She called Zheng Shou again: "Grandpa, could you take another look at that talisman you had last time?"

"What talisman?"

"The one you hid last time."

From the other end came Zheng Shou's furious voice.

Caibao covered the watch phone, moved it a little further away, and then smiled sweetly at everyone: "My grandpa is very stingy."

On the other end of the phone, Zheng Shou was still going on and on... berating Chen Chuan.

"You never teach your child anything good, she takes everything from the house. You can't even control the child, what use are you..."

blah blah blah.

Everyone was stunned. Chen Chuan nodded, deeply agreeing: "Yeah, that's stingy."

After Zheng Shou finished cursing, he took a picture of the talisman and sent it to Cai Bao.

“It’s not that Grandpa is stingy, it’s just that this talisman is too difficult for you, sweetie. We can’t rush things. We have to take it one step at a time. You’re still young, you have plenty of time to learn.”

"Oh, okay, Grandpa, you're so kind. I'll miss you, Grandpa. Goodbye."

The treasure was sent away with a single click, and then the little girl started looking at the talisman, and everyone else followed suit.

Uh... what is this drawing? It's just a jumble of lines, I can't make heads or tails of it at all.

If Leo hadn't run off with Zheng Shou at that moment, he probably would have agreed with everyone's opinion that it was even more abstract than his abstract paintings.

Caibao watched for a while, about a minute, and then started to imitate it.

Wu Guoli muttered to Hou Qianru incredulously, "She's learning this on the spot? This little girl..."

Before he could finish speaking, Hou Qianru glared at him and said, "You have to call him Grandmaster!"

Oh… Wu Guoli felt a pang of pain in his heart and shut up.

Hou Qianru stood guard behind Caibao with a serious expression. She considered it her duty to obey orders. Since she had agreed to exchange herself for her grandfather to join the sect, from today onwards, she would put her great-grandmother first.

She has many good qualities, but when it comes to keeping her promises, she never falsifies them.

Caibao drew three pictures in a row.

After she finished drawing the first one, she picked it up and looked at it. "Eh~~" she shook her head, crumpled it up, and threw it away.

After finishing the second drawing, I looked at it again, clicked my tongue three times, and then threw it away.

She smiled after finishing the third drawing.

"It's done!"

Then, she held the talisman between her index and middle fingers, had Hou Pingzheng sit next to her, and circled it three times in front of his head. On the third circle, the talisman spontaneously combusted without fire.

She muttered something and then threw the talisman into the paper cup.

Everyone witnessed an unbelievable scene: the water in the paper cup quickly boiled, gradually darkening from transparent to pitch black, like ink.

After a while, the water calmed down, but it no longer resembled water. Instead, it was like asphalt, thick and black, emitting an indescribable stench.

With a troubled expression, Wu Guoli asked, "Um...Grandmaster...Grandmaster, this talisman water, you're not going to make my master drink it, are you?"

Caibao gave him a strange look: "If you really want to drink, then drink."

The adults are so greedy, they want to drink all of this! Hmm...

Hou Pingzheng breathed a sigh of relief. Thank goodness, he didn't have to drink it. Otherwise, he wasn't sure if he could have swallowed it, because the smell was so nauseating.

He asked Caibao, "Master, what is this?"

"This is your illness."

what?

Everyone was stunned, as if struck by lightning. Even though Caibao was speaking Chinese, why were they finding it... hard to understand?

Shen Xi quietly asked Chen Chuan, "Is your daughter talking nonsense or telling the truth?"

Chen Chuan shrugged: "I don't know much about Taoist medicine. But I heard that the one who knows it is your master."

Shen Xi: ...

If she said she had never seen Old Zheng treat anyone, would he believe her?

In fact, Zheng Shou had always adopted a laissez-faire approach to Shen Xi, teaching her martial arts indiscriminately, regardless of whether she could learn them or not.

If she can't learn it, it's her own fault; if she does learn it, it's because he taught her well.

Then he would disappear for several months at a time. Later, when Shen Xi came to Hecheng, the master and disciple would only see each other two or three times a year at most. Each time Zheng Shou came to check how well she had practiced her martial arts. If she had made significant progress, he would leave immediately. If he was not satisfied, he would beat Shen Xi up.

After Shen Xi was able to beat him up, he stopped showing up as much and focused on his money-making scheme.

Therefore, Shen Xi was not lying when she said she didn't know Zheng Shou knew Taoist medicine; she genuinely didn't know.

Moreover, this kind of medicine seems too mysterious; whether it's real or fake is hard to say.

but--

Hou Pingzheng closed his eyes and sensed it; the heavy, uncomfortable feeling in his head that had been lingering for so long was actually... gone.

Is it just my imagination?

But is this scientifically sound?

Chen Chuan sneered: "You've already become an apprentice, and you're still talking about science?"

That makes sense.

Caibao nodded and told him, "Grandpa said that his move is called 'Shifting'."

Simply put, it involves transferring the patient's illness and ailments to other things, usually living things such as flowers, plants, and trees, depending on the specific condition.

If it's serious, small flowers and grasses won't work; you have to use towering ancient trees.

Moreover, this method cannot be used frequently, as it depletes Yang energy. However, using talismans would be much better, but talismans are generally only effective when the condition is mild.

For example, Hou Pingzheng had already undergone surgery and had taken the first ninety steps, but Caibao helped him shorten the last ten steps.

Hou Pingzheng felt he was in incredibly good shape right now; he felt like he could kill a bull!

If Taoist medicine is so miraculous, then according to this logic, wouldn't it be able to cure any disease?

Of course not. There are many conditions and restrictions. Most importantly, there is cause and effect and fate. She sold the treasure because Hou Pingzheng is her apprentice. Well... in the end, she did it to save money.

She had just quietly rummaged through her pockets and found that the things in the bag today were... quite nice, all her beloved possessions, and she couldn't bear to part with any of them.

So, this idea came up.

Look, Hou Pingzheng is incredibly excited; his thirst for knowledge is so strong it's almost explosive.

King Wu felt his entire worldview had been shattered today. What had he just witnessed? It was like a magic trick. It made him wonder, what was the point of studying medicine for decades?

Hou Pingzheng was very happy. He planned to arrange for someone to rent a house in Zigui Garden immediately so that he could stay by his master's side and learn Taoist medicine from her.

They left excitedly, while Hou Qianrong stayed behind.

Starting today, she will have to stay by Sister Caibao's side.
