Chapter 577: The Peasant Girl’s Splendid Manor
Chapter 577: Troubles (2)
Mo Yan had little interest in medicine and was preoccupied with various family matters, making it difficult for her to focus on studying medicine. Although she didn't want to disappoint physician Du, she eventually declined his offer to become his apprentice after much thought.
physician Du didn’t press her but took every opportunity to teach Mo Yan some medical principles. Even if she didn’t become a doctor, these skills could prove useful in emergencies, benefiting both herself and those around her.
Mo Yan sincerely agreed and said, “Grandpa Du, you have foresight. I am willing to learn to take pulses from you. Please teach me!” Learning pulse reading would at least help her stay calm in future emergencies.
However, compared to Western medicine, traditional Chinese medicine is profound and complex, and mastering it isn’t easy. Even with talent, one needs to accumulate experience over time.
Seeing Mo Yan’s willingness, physician Du’s face relaxed a bit, but his wrinkles deepened. “Since you want to learn, I’ll reluctantly teach you.”
Relieved that physician Du didn’t insist on learning other aspects of medicine, Mo Yan cheerfully said, “I will study pulse reading diligently and live up to the reputation of Du’s medical skills!”
physician Du could see through her intentions. A sly smile crossed his clear eyes. The young girl was still too naïve and didn’t realize she was like a frog in gradually heating water. Once she learned pulse reading, she would naturally want to know how to treat the conditions diagnosed. There was no way she would stop halfway.
Unaware that physician Du intended to slowly "cook" her like a frog in warming water, Mo Yan thought it best to have physician Du check on the golden beast, which occupied Xiao Hua’s hut. Its injuries seemed to need the most attention.
Worried about frightening physician Du, Mo Yan briefly explained how the golden beast had been injured while fighting other wild animals and had inadvertently hurt her father and a few others.

physician Du was not intimidated. Instead, he showed a keen interest in the golden beast and asked his apprentice to bring the medical box, urging Mo Yan to lead him to it.
At that moment, the golden beast was resting in Xiao Hua’s wooden house. Its golden eyes were tightly shut, and the wounds seemed to cause it significant discomfort. Its body twitched occasionally, and it emitted a low, lion-like growl.
Seeing the golden beast, which, despite its closed eyes and serious injuries, still exuded a powerful presence, physician Du felt a bit apprehensive. Although he had seen many large predators like tigers and wolves in his sixty-plus years, this golden beast, with its golden fur and a body like a bull but resembling a tiger, was entirely new to him. His curiosity temporarily outweighed his fear as he quietly followed Mo Yan.
His apprentice, however, lacked such courage. Upon seeing the golden beast, he almost collapsed from fear and dared not stop or approach them.
Although the golden beast was asleep, its heightened awareness in unfamiliar surroundings meant it nearly woke as soon as the three entered the room. Had it not recognized the familiar scent and sensed no immediate danger, it would have opened its eyes and given a warning.
Even so, when the golden beast opened its eyes, physician Du couldn’t help but catch his breath. If Mo Yan hadn’t been leading the way and assured him of the beast’s safety, he might have been as frightened as his apprentice and would not have dared to come any closer.
Mo Yan, standing a safe distance away, pointed to physician Du and said, “This is the doctor I found for you. He can treat your injuries. Will you let him examine you?”
