The young novice Dongsheng crossed the road diligently. When he saw the street sign that said "Xiagou", he slowed down and tugged on the backpack on his back.

There are many products on the mountain, the most abundant are all kinds of mushrooms.

Twelve Springs Mountain, where the Twelve Springs Temple is located, is vast and has deep forests and luxuriant leaves. As the number of young adults in the nearby small mountain villages decreases, the output of the forest becomes more and more.

The day after a rain is usually the best time to pick mushrooms. The master and the apprentice can pick a large number of wild mushrooms by just walking a little deeper into the forest.

The basic principle of picking mushrooms is to know, that is, only pick mushrooms that you know. Not only do you not pick mushrooms that you don’t know, are unsure about, or have doubts about, but you also don’t touch them to avoid contaminating the picked mushrooms. As for whether they are brightly colored or not,

To judge the toxicity of mushrooms, we mainly talk about probability. For example, if there is an 80% chance of starving to death, the probability of death from eating an unfamiliar non-brightly colored mushroom may be only 65%, so it is still worth a try.

Dongsheng knows a lot of mushrooms, because he grew up in the Twelve Spring Temple and was very popular with the nearby villagers, so he knows more than just the mushrooms around the village.

Not only does he know mushrooms, but he also knows the locations where many mushrooms are produced. As long as the soil is not dug cleanly every time, there is a high chance that these things will grow again in the future.

In recent years, nearly 30% of the Twelve Springs Temple's income comes from mushroom picking by the master and apprentice.

Every time Dongsheng goes down the mountain, he will carry dried mushrooms. They can be sold at a reasonable price and are not too heavy to carry. Whenever he encounters good ones, he will leave some to the Ling family.

Dongsheng wanted to get to Ling's house before dinner so that they could taste some fresh mushrooms.

As we approached Xiagou Clinic, the entrance was a bit crowded.

Not only in the yard, but also outside the door, there were several old ladies sitting on benches, queuing and chatting.

"Is...what happened?" Dongsheng asked in a low voice after saluting.

"Hey, you are the little novice monk in that temple, right?" The old lady touched Dongsheng's head and said with a smile, "It's okay, everyone is lining up for Dr. Ling's massage."

"Doctor Ling also knows how to massage?" Dongsheng was surprised.

"No, the massage is really good." The old lady touched her shoulder and said with a smile: "I had pain a few days ago, but today I don't feel anything at all."

"It's amazing!" Dongsheng exclaimed in exaggerated praise, but what he was thinking about was whether he should ask Master to come down the mountain and give it a try.

The conditions in the Twelve Springs Temple are difficult, especially in winter. The fire is never warm enough, and the master will suffer from waist and leg pain very early...

With this thought in mind, young novice Dongsheng walked into the Xiagou Clinic. Before he could find anyone, he heard a shrill cry:

"ah……"

Dongsheng looked around and saw Ling Ran grabbing someone's arm and pulling him back so hard that the person's cheeks changed color, and it was inevitable to cry out in pain.

Dongsheng couldn't help being shocked, what was happening at the scene?

"Okay." Ling Ran put down the other person's arm, and the latter rubbed his shoulders and arms. After feeling it, he expressed all kinds of thanks.

After all, it is a free massage. If you get results, you will be very happy.

Ling Ran nodded. The limb pulling technique he had just obtained was obtained after 30,000 hours of pain relief. After receiving this reward, the time-limited mission was almost over.

Ling Ran was quite happy to get four skills in one breath, even though they were all massage.

Although there is no reward now, Ling Ran is still in high spirits as he can put his skills to use.

"Dongsheng is here." Ling Ran changed the direction of operation and saw Dongsheng.

Dongsheng greeted him obediently and said, "I brought dried mushrooms."

"Give me the mushrooms and I'll put them in the kitchen." Ling Jiezhou came out with a smile and said loudly: "Everyone, there are still 20 minutes left, and I can only push 10 people. Sorry for the rest, today

Please come back first."

"We can't even pay."

"We can't do it today. We'll make an appointment later." Ling Jiezhou knew that today was not the right day to collect money. Regardless of whether the people behind him were willing to pay, the free and charged ones in tandem were too easy to make people unhappy.

, it is better to let Ling Ran rest.

There is no charge for massage at Xiagou Clinic. When the time is about to end, the people behind me are too embarrassed to force the massage, but there are not many people leaving, and they are all watching the excitement.

Dongsheng also watched Ling Ran's movements intently.

But he didn't want to see how Ling Ran made people scream, but to see how Ling Ran operated.

Dongsheng wanted to learn a little bit and go back and give the master massage according to the gourd's instructions.

When Ling Ran reached the fifth position, he noticed Dongsheng's expression, so when he reached the sixth position, he specially switched to cervical spine massage.

Dongsheng was a little confused when he saw that the tricks he had learned at the beginning had changed, but he quickly took another look.

His life in the mountains was very monotonous. Apart from daily cleaning of Buddhist temples, Dongsheng spent the rest of his time reading and making incense.

Regardless of which type, they all cultivate Dongsheng's self-learning ability and, most importantly, the ability to concentrate.

Ling Ran performed cervical massage for the next few people, which received unanimous praise.

Dongsheng also looked at it extremely seriously.

For this reason, Ling Ran did a few more rounds of massage, which was slightly extended for more than ten minutes than the originally scheduled 20 minutes.

"Have you watched it for a while?" Ling Ran suddenly asked Dongsheng.

"Ah...I didn't learn it on purpose." The little novice monk was very nervous.

Ling Ran laughed and said, "If you want to learn, just stand behind me."

"May I?"

"Of course you can. The cervical spine massage method is actually very simple, but the techniques are quite diverse. I currently know 13 types..." Ling Ran said while using the neighbor's neck as a prop.

The little novice monk was eager to move after hearing this, and his eyes began to search for a suitable neck unconsciously.

"Use your own." Ling Ran said, using the neck in his hand to demonstrate, step by step.

He is a master of massage, and his national ranking in cervical massage is 42nd - one place higher than when he first acquired the skill. It is simply too easy to teach a young novice monk such a high-level massage technique.

The little novice then pinched his neck and started studying seriously.

After the Xiagou Clinic closed its business and dinner was over, Ling Ran generously provided his cervical vertebrae to perform massage training on the young novice monk.

"Well...a little to the left."

"Push harder."

"Press down."

"Don't rub."

Ling Ran narrowed his eyes slightly and manipulated Dongsheng to give him a massage and recuperate for tomorrow's work.
