Engagement Canceled: I Can Extract Prefixes-Chapter 273 - 272: Injuries and Ailments Divided into 9 Categories
This piece of heaven and earth seems no different from the outside world.
Occasionally it’s sunny, occasionally it rains.
Fortunately, the house is located in a rather serene place, with tall trees around providing shade.
Even during the heat of summer, it’s still quite cool.
Shen Han reads medical books in the house, starting from 7:00 AM until dusk, only then putting away his books.
If he encounters something truly difficult to understand, he adds entries from "Simple and Easy to Learn," which makes reading much easier upon a quick glance.
Meanwhile, Shi Yuezhu and Su Jinyu have spent days studying by the Clear Pool, achieving nothing at all.
Su Jinyu’s patience nearly ran out by the seventh day.
She even dragged Shi Yuezhu, wanting to leave the way they came, but when they got there,
she realized Shen Han hadn’t lied to her, the entrance had disappeared...
Shi Yuezhu tried to persuade her, urging her to be more patient.
After all, this is the legacy of the Little Pool Immortal.
Rumor has it that a strong individual at the First Grade of the Immortal Realm, such a strong legacy, could not possibly be easy to master.
But once understood, the benefits will last a lifetime.
Another seven days passed.
A full fourteen days, Su Jinyu had learned the most difficult cultivation techniques before, like the universally recognized Body Technique.
It only took her fourteen days to master it.
And those fourteen days were spent reaching complete fluency.
But now, for these fourteen days, she stared at the Clear Pool every day.
She watched so intently that Su Jinyu felt she could almost count every leaf of the water plants inside...
Working hard without reward is the most torturous thing.
Lacking patience, Su Jinyu naturally found every day to be an eternity.
In contrast to her situation, Shen Han, who studied books in the house, was diligent and more focused with every read.
At night, he would even light a lamp to read.
Shi Yuezhu would take Su Jinyu to a corner of the house to rest lightly.
Trying to keep as quiet as possible, so as not to disturb Shen Han.
Sometimes Su Jinyu would look through the window at Shen Han studying.
Between his brows was a hint of seriousness, contemplation, and deep study.
Shen Han already looked rather handsome, and this seriousness gave him more appeal.
Compared to Shen Ye, his attraction to women was indeed more pronounced.
But in her heart, Su Jinyu still saw the image of Shen Ye.
Moreover, now Su Jinyu often felt Shen Han harbored some improper intentions towards her master, subconsciously rejecting him.
By the twentieth day, Su Jinyu really couldn’t take it any longer...
The Clear Pool before her, she even wanted to destroy it.
"Master...
Is the Martial Path of the Little Pool Immortal really hidden in this Clear Pool..."
Upon hearing this, Shi Yuezhu could only softly comfort her.
Not only Su Jinyu, even she felt a bit disheartened.
The legacy left by the Little Pool Immortal is truly difficult to comprehend.
"From the moment we stepped into the secret realm entrance, we could feel the temperament of the Little Pool Immortal.
The Immortal does not like to play tricks on others, whether it was the reminder at the entrance or what was written in the letter.
Not a word was a joke.
There is definitely the legacy of the Little Pool Immortal hidden within the Clear Pool, there’s no doubt about it."
Su Jinyu thought that made sense too, after all, the pile of medical books also proved it.
The Little Pool Immortal’s legacy was indeed here.
It’s just too mysterious for her and Shi Yuezhu to fathom.
"Jinyu, keep calm.
Think about it, even Shen Ye went to great lengths to modify the entrance to the secret realm.
This shows how much he and Luo Zuchen behind him value this secret realm.
If you can learn the Little Pool Immortal’s cultivation techniques, maybe you’ll quickly surpass Shen Ye."
As Shi Yuezhu said this, Su Jinyu seemed to regain some motivation.
Currently, her feelings for Shen Ye are very complicated.
What she wants most is to see Shen Ye regret.
Regret missing out on her.
If she were to obtain the Little Pool Immortal’s legacy, Shen Ye’s expression would surely be quite unpleasant.
"Master, you think if I obtain the Little Pool Immortal’s legacy,
then, would even he not be my match?"
"Does he refer to Shen Ye?"
With a hint of inquiry, Shi Yuezhu looked at Su Jinyu.
Seeing her slight nod, Shi Yuezhu couldn’t help but sigh. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎
This disciple of hers, still can’t free herself from Shen Ye...
Even now, she still thinks about Shen Ye, is he really that good...
"The strength of the techniques, besides the techniques and methods themselves, mainly depends on the practitioner’s own strength.
Even if you obtain the Immortal’s legacy, Jinyu, you are only at the Sixth Grade Half-Step Realm.
There’s still a full grade gap between you and Shen Ye.
Even if the Immortal’s legacy is boundlessly mysterious, surpassing him won’t be so easy..."
After speaking, Shi Yuezhu couldn’t help raising her eyes to look at Su Jinyu.
"Jinyu, you and Shen Ye should have cut ties long ago.
You shouldn’t be thinking about whether you can surpass him or if he’d ever feel regret...
What you need to do is ignore him, completely not think about him.
It’s my fault too, for bringing up his name just now."
Hearing her master’s words, Su Jinyu slightly furrowed her elegant brows, her eyes gleaming, gazing into the distance.
"Father also told me, compared to Shen Ye, Shen Han is more suitable for me.
This trial was also meant for me to get closer to Shen Han, perhaps to..."
Su Jinyu paused a bit at this.
"But...I can’t help but think of Brother Ye...
Although nowadays, many people say Shen Han’s talent and potential are no less than Brother Ye’s.
But I still feel Brother Ye is superior to Shen Han by more than a little.
Shen Han doesn’t inspire a sense of admiration in me..."
It’s only in front of her master that Su Jinyu would speak so openly, revealing these thoughts.
Shi Yuezhu gently hugged her without saying much, just gently holding her.
The human mind is strange.
The more you tell yourself not to think about something or someone,
the more likely that situation will appear in your mind.
Shen Ye is not a good person, but mere verbal persuasion isn’t very effective.
Seeing that Su Jinyu is not in the mood for cultivation today, Shi Yuezhu simply took her around.
They collected some wild fruits, caught some wild rabbits, fish, and shrimp.
Nearing a month, the food they brought is running low, saving where they can.
Meanwhile, in the house, Shen Han had reached the tenth volume.
In the Little Pool Immortal’s medical legacy, injuries and illnesses are divided into nine areas.
Skin, flesh, veins, tendons, sound, harmonious Yin and Yang, teeth and facial features, breath channels, nine orifices and three hundred sixty-five collaterals.
Injuries and ailments all stem from these nine areas.
Over almost a month, Shen Han meticulously learned the disputes of these nine areas through the ten manuscripts.
Next were the methods the Little Pool Immortal devised for these ailments.
The nine areas correspond to nine acupuncture techniques.
Chan Needle, Round Needle, Dui Needle, Blade Needle, Pi Needle, Round Sharp Needle, Filiform Needle, Long Needle, Great Needle.
Through the power of Qi, healing was achieved with these acupuncture techniques.
