Chu Mu walked into his room. The once spartan room was now completely transformed. Dozens of books were stacked neatly on the desk.
Among them were books from Elder Li, as well as some medical texts circulating outside that Chu Mu had acquired from bookstores through his connections.
Beside the bed stood a row of medicine cabinets, which held various medicinal herbs Chu Mu had purchased from Mingxin Hall. Of course, the quantity of each herb was small.
Their main purpose was to allow Chu Mu to better recognize and distinguish the appearance and types of herbs, and to understand their medicinal properties.
At the foot of the bed was a small stove with an earthenware pot on top, mainly used for brewing decoctions.
Shennong tasted a hundred herbs. In a medical system like this—one based on combining herbs and using their properties for treatment—a healer could never apply them effectively without personally experiencing their effects.
