Chapter 403: Prepare to be beaten

Chapter 403: Ready to Come Back for a Fight
The next day.

Li Kailang continued to study at the Xinhua Bookstore with Jin Jianxian and Yu Xingmei, and took time to buy some books on traditional Chinese medicine from the bookshelf.

But when he came to the medical category, Li Kailang couldn't help but feel helpless: "I don't understand books, what book should I look for?"

Fortunately, there were quite a few people reading books here. I guess they were people working in the medical field. Li Kailang just asked someone.

By chance, he found a nurse working in the hospital, and with her help, Li Kailang found some books.

"Thank you, comrade." Li Kailang thanked him. The nurse waved her hand, took the book and left.

Unlike nurses in later generations, today’s nurses can become doctors after a series of tests such as studying and taking exams, and they will not be confined to the position of nurses.

Therefore, any nurse who has ambition and spare energy will not be satisfied with just being a nurse. They will study on their own after work and ask doctors if they encounter any questions they don't understand.

In this way, nurses will eventually be able to become doctors. Although few nurses can succeed, there are still some.

Yu Xingmei looked at Li Kailang coming back with the books and couldn't help asking, "Kailang, why did you buy these books? Don't you want to study medicine?"

Li Kailang explained: "How can I learn it? Medicine is extensive and profound. You can't learn it by reading two books. I just want to change my mind when I have nothing to do."

"Just to relax. My mind is a little groggy from reading mechanical books all the time."

Hearing this, Yu Xingmei nodded, "That's true. If you hadn't said it, I wouldn't have realized it. Lately, I've been feeling a bit overwhelmed by my brain. I'll buy a few books and read them."

As she spoke, Yu Xingmei went to the bookshelf to buy books.

Jin Jianxian stared at Li Kailang and said, "Tell me, why did you suddenly buy a medical book? It's Chinese medicine. Don't try to fool me. You are not the kind of person who will do anything for a profit."

The few of them had been together for half a year, and Jin Jianxian had also seen through Li Kailang's personality.

"Hey, I can't hide it from you. I recently found a few prescriptions and plan to try to make medicine. Isn't it difficult to read books? Buy a few books first to learn some knowledge so that I can make it."

As he spoke, Li Kailang nudged Jin Jianxian's shoulder with a meaningful expression.

"Wait until I make it. Would you like some? It's a tonic and can improve sexual performance!" As he said this, Li Kailang raised his eyebrows twice.

"I don't want it. I'm a grown man and I don't need these external things!" Jin Jianxian said sternly.

"Oh? You really don't want it? This is a good thing, you never know when you might need it."

Jin Jianxian's eyes flickered when Li Kailang said that, and he had some intention, "Ahem, since you beg me so much, I will accept it reluctantly."

"Hey, don't let your imagination run wild. I'm a man of eight feet tall, and I don't need this medicine at all. I only need it for your sake."

"Haha, stop pretending. Just take it if you want it. There's nothing to be embarrassed about."

"Cough cough." Jin Jianxian blushed immediately and used coughing to cover up his embarrassment.

He just looked at Li Kailang and couldn't help but smile meaningfully.

"When you're done, remember to leave some for me."

"Okay, I'll go first." Li Kailang took the medical book and went to pay the bill.

For Li Kailang, he cannot learn medical skills just by buying a few books. If he wants to learn medical skills, especially traditional Chinese medicine, he must either rely on a master to teach him or rely on the system.

Li Kailang read books only to see if he could gain the skill of making medicine. It was impossible to cure diseases and save lives. He knew that he read books just for the purpose of making medicine.

If it were revealed that he was curing illnesses and saving lives, someone would definitely ask him how he acquired these medical skills. Who would believe him if he learned them without anyone teaching him?

After leaving Xinhua Bookstore, Li Kailang did not choose to go back to the yard, but went to the pharmacy.

I bought a lot of medicinal herbs for brewing wine before, but there are more medicinal herbs required in the pharmaceutical books. Most of them are available, but only a few are missing, so naturally I need to prepare them.

At the same time, in order to achieve self-sufficiency, Li Kailang even bought seeds to avoid having to come again in the future.

But Li Kailang's behavior once again frightened the owner of the drugstore, "Comrade, what do you want so many seeds for?"

The shopkeeper didn't dare to give the herbs and seeds to Li Kailang, for fear of nurturing an enemy.

"Of course I'm planting it. Why? Are you afraid that I'll steal your business? Think about it yourself. Was there any movement around me the last time I bought herbs from you?"

Hearing this, the shopkeeper thought about it and realized that there really wasn't one.

"Shopkeeper, don't worry. Maybe I can grow some medicinal herbs and sell them to you. Will you take them?"

"Of course I will, but my store has high requirements for medicinal herbs, and I'm afraid you can't grow anything that meets the requirements."

"Hahaha~" Hearing this, Li Kailang laughed, "Maybe by then the shopkeeper will beg me to sell the medicinal herbs I grow to you."

Li Kailang is very confident about the planting space. With such a good growing environment, there is no need to worry about not being able to grow good medicinal materials.

You know, among the medicinal herbs that were planted at the beginning, the ginseng was already a thousand years old. A thousand-year-old ginseng is a remarkable existence.

"That would be the best, of course."

Since Li Kailang would not pose a threat to him, the shopkeeper naturally would not give up doing business and packed the medicinal herbs and seeds for Li Kailang.

Before leaving, Li Kailang noticed that something was missing from the counter: "Oh, yes, boss, why don't you have those life-saving drugs on your counter? Are they gone?"

"Those medicines you mentioned are all sold out. There is no stock left. If you want them, you have to wait until next year."

"Okay." Li Kailang nodded, turned around and left. He had a lot of life-saving medicine in his hand, and he asked just because he wanted to buy some to store.

Since there is no such thing, there is no need to force it.

After returning to the yard, Li Kailang couldn't wait to open the medical book and read it.

I finished reading a book quickly and immediately looked at the panel.

[Host: Li Kailang]

[Skills: Maintenance Expert, Driving Proficiency, Cooking Proficiency, Firearms Proficiency, Carpentry Proficiency, Fishing Proficiency, Bajiquan Proficiency, Winemaking Proficiency, Unlimited Defense Proficiency.]

"Sure enough, I said it wouldn't be that easy. Let's wait and see. There's no rush. Anyway, I have the pharmaceutical books in my hands. If I take my time, I'll get it done."

During this period, Li Kailang's skills have also changed. His original proficiency-level winemaking and control-level unlimited defense have now been upgraded to mastery.

Having mastered a total of 8 skills, it is almost impossible to improve at this level through simple practice.

It takes an epiphany or a big challenge to make progress.

"With so many skills, who can compare to me? Isn't this the case that having too many skills is always better?"

Li Kailang looked at his masterpiece with joy. Except for the first few skills given by the system, he learned all the rest by himself.

Even most of the improvements are made by myself bit by bit.

"If I can't learn how to make medicine by reading books, I can only rely on the system to sign in and get skills. The last time I signed in was in September, and it's only been a month and a half. Let's wait a little longer."

"Accumulate more and bet big, otherwise the rewards of small fights will be useless."

After making the decision, Li Kailang relaxed and picked up a book to read.

At the same time, a person who had not been seen for a long time came to the yard.

I saw Xu Damao pushing a fully loaded bicycle and walking into the yard with a smile on his face.

"Hey, Xu Damao, you're finally back. Where have you been these days? I haven't seen you in a long time."

It was a rare occasion for Yan Bugui to greet Xu Damao. If one could ignore his eyes that were staring at the farm specialties, one would really think that he was thinking about Xu Damao.

Xu Damao replied: "Hey, isn't this Uncle Sanda? Why did you think of me? I see, you are thinking of my things."

"Hehe." Yan Bugui smiled and didn't reply, but his meaning was obvious.

"Here, take it." Xu Damao was in a good mood and took out a small bag and threw it to Yan Bugui.

"Thank you!" Yan Bugui didn't expect Xu Damao to actually give him the bag. He couldn't wait to open it and saw that the bag contained some dried mushrooms.

"Hey, that's quite a lot. If I eat it sparingly, it can last me for a long time." Yan Bugui was in a good mood after getting a bag of dried mushrooms for free.

Xu Damao seemed to be in a good mood and looked rosy-faced at first glance, but in fact he looked superficial.

His lips were pale, his eyes were dull, and his steps were so weak that he needed a bicycle to support him. It was obvious that Xu Damao had indulged himself, and not shallowly. It was obvious that he had had sex with widows in the countryside many times, otherwise he would not have come to this.

Xu Damao pushed the cart happily towards his home. When passing by the central courtyard, he saw Sha Zhu.

"Hey, isn't this Shazhu? You're discharged from the hospital. When did you leave? Why didn't you tell me so I could pick you up at the hospital."

"Hmph!" Sha Zhu looked at Xu Damao's gloating expression, snorted coldly and ignored him.

Xu Damao pretended to be concerned and said, "Hey, why doesn't Shazhu speak? Could it be that he has become stupid because of being in the hospital? This is not good. You have to go to the hospital immediately."

When he heard the word "hospital", Sha Zhu instantly flew into a rage, "Xu Damao, don't force me to beat you up."

Xu Damao said again: "Hey, Silly Zhu, I think you really became stupid after being in the hospital. I am obviously concerned about you, why don't you appreciate it?"

"Tell me, how long has it been since we last met? It's been almost a month, right? Why are you still the same?"

When Sha Zhu was discharged from the hospital, Xu Damao was driven to the countryside, and the two hadn't seen each other for a month.

The two of them don't know each other's situation.

"Xu Damao, don't force me to beat you!" Sha Zhu said angrily.

But the more Xu Damao saw how angry Sha Zhu was, the happier he became, and naturally he would not miss the opportunity to provoke him.

"Silly Zhu, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but you're already such a grown-up, why don't you learn your lesson? Can you beat me?"

"Xu Damao, you're looking for death!" Sha Zhu didn't say any more and rushed towards Xu Damao with his fist.

"Shazhu, stop it!" Yi Zhonghai on the side hurriedly spoke out to stop him, but it was too late.

"Hey, you actually dare to come here? You are rebelling." Xu Damao said happily, not afraid of Sha Zhu who rushed over.

He parked his bicycle leisurely, got into position for his starting moves, and waited for Sha Zhu to attack.

In an instant, the two men started fighting.

"Bang bang bang!"

"what!"

"Silly, I was wrong, I was wrong!"

"Stop it, stop it!"

The situation that everyone expected did not occur.

Xu Damao was beaten unilaterally and was beaten back by Sha Zhu without any ability to fight back.

"I told you to speak, I told you to speak!" Sha Zhu looked at Xu Damao who was being beaten back step by step, and felt very excited. He finally got his revenge.

"Silly Zhu, stop hitting me!"

Seeing that Sha Zhu was unmoved, Xu Damao blocked him and looked at Yi Zhonghai, "Uncle, please speak up and tell Sha Zhu to stop."

Yi Zhonghai turned a deaf ear and just watched quietly.

Upon hearing the noise, everyone in the yard rushed to watch the fun, but did not participate in the fight between the two men. In order to avoid being harmed, they even stood against the wall.

"Hey, didn't I know? When these two meet, there will definitely be something exciting to watch. Isn't it here now?"

"This is weird. What's wrong with Xu Damao? Why didn't he fight back when he was beaten by Sha Zhu?"

"Who knows? Who cares? As long as they fight, it's fine. It won't interfere with our watching the fun."

Xu Damao simply deserved it. Even though he was so weak, he still wanted to cause trouble for Sha Zhu, who had fully recovered.

Xu Damao's body became weak, and he could still block a few punches from Sha Zhu at first, but later he had no strength left and could not block Sha Zhu's punches at all.

What's more, Sha Zhu was already excited and used all his strength in every move, which made Xu Damao unable to cope with him and he could only flee in panic.

"Stop looking at me, help me block that stupid pillar!"

Xu Damao was still trying to rush over to the onlookers, but they immediately raised their hands and fists, "Xu Damao, don't come over here, or I'll beat you up too!"

Everyone has learned to protect themselves. Instead of hiding, it is better to raise fists and threaten.

Xu Damao glanced at Yan Bugui in the crowd and said, "Third uncle! Third uncle! Come and help me!"

"Yan Bugui!" Sha Zhu yelled, instantly making Yan Bugui give up the desire to help.

Xu Damao hurriedly shouted: "Uncle, I just gave you some dried mushrooms. You can't just accept the gift and not do the job!"

Hearing this, Yan Bugui felt a little embarrassed and looked at Yan Jiecheng and Yan Jiefang beside him.

The two men just turned their heads away and didn't even look at him. What a joke! The gift was accepted by Yan Bugui. It has nothing to do with Yan Jiecheng and Yan Jiefang. We don't want to get beaten for nothing.

Yan Bugui was also helpless: "Xu Damao, I will send you to the hospital!"

Seeing this, Sha Zhu was very excited: "Hey, Xu Damao, you can't escape today, I'm going to beat you to death!"

"what--"

Soon, Xu Damao was caught by Sha Zhu, who sat on him and punched him several times.

"Bang Bang Bang——"

Soon, Xu Damao was beaten black and blue by Sha Zhu. Sha Zhu then stood up comfortably and clapped his hands.

"Xu Damao, remember this, stay away from me next time you see me, or I'll beat you up every time I see you!"

"Did you hear me!"

"I know!" Xu Damao held his head and curled up, his nose bleeding.

"Hmph!" Sha Zhu was in a clear mood. He finally got his revenge. He didn't win last time, but this time he finally got it back.

"I told you, Xu Damao only learned a little bit of Kung Fu, why can't I beat him? It seems that these days of hospitalization have been useful."

Sha Zhu just walked away, and everyone else naturally left as the excitement was gone.

"Tsk tsk tsk, what happened to Xu Damao today? How come he couldn't even beat Sha Zhu? This is so weird."

"Today was not wasted. I'm waiting for the next time they fight."

Everyone left, but Yan Bugui felt reluctant to leave. After all, he had received gifts, so he hurried over to visit.

"Xu Damao, are you okay?"

Looking at Yan Bugui approaching, Xu Damao struggled to break free, "Humph!"

"Ah~" Xu Damao took a breath, perhaps because his wound was pulled, and he got up tremblingly and went home.

Seeing this, Yan Bugui wanted to help, but was still broken free. Watching Xu Damao leave, he could only help to push the car back.

An auntie was concerned: "Zhu Zi, why did you fight with Xu Damao again? You just came back from the hospital yesterday, why did you fight again? Be careful that you will have to be hospitalized again."

Sha Zhu patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, Auntie, I'm fine. The hospital said I was well enough to recover before I came out."

"That won't work either. Fighting is never right. It would be bad if you bump into someone. I'm bored, so I need to find you someone to cure your temper."

When Sha Zhu heard that an old lady was looking for a partner for him, he immediately became distracted and stopped talking.

Sha Zhu then remembered that Qin Huairu had promised to find him a partner. He asked about it in the hospital before, but was fooled by Qin Huairu who said that he was recuperating.

Now that I'm discharged from the hospital, I have to find Qin Huairu as a partner.

Thinking of this, Sha Zhu couldn't wait to find Qin Huairu and fulfill his promise.

"Auntie, I have my own ideas about my partner, so please don't worry about it."

After saying that, Sha Zhu hurried to find Qin Huairu to talk about the matter.
