Chapter 1032 Internal Qi Can Strengthen Body Resistance and Eliminate Pathogenic Factors?

“So this is the effect of the virus?” he wondered.

Inside his dream world, countless beasts and evil spirits pounded on him. Even so, Fang Qiu was completely unfazed because he knew that this was all just a dream!

However, when these monsters and evil spirits approached him, Fang Qiu found that they looked so real. When they struck him, he felt pain all over his body.

“Hmph!”

Fang Qiu immediately tried to mobilize his internal Qi.

He knew that this was just a dream. Even if he hit them, it was impossible for him to defeat these evil spirits. Hitting them would just waste his energy.

According to Old Yang’s previous description, the infected would do whatever they did inside the dream in the real life, like they were sleepwalking.

So Fang Qiu didn’t fight.

Besides, Old Yang was there to watch over him. He might end up hurting Old Yang if he fought back in the dream. How could an old man like Old Yang possibly endure a hit from Fang Qiu?

Since Fang Qiu couldn’t use force, the only thing he could think of was to try to mobilize his internal Qi.

At least he could use his internal Qi to protect his body.

“Huh?”

As soon as he tried, Fang Qiu immediately found that even in the dream, he could still mobilize his internal Qi.

The most amazing thing was that as soon as his internal Qi was mobilized, Fang Qiu noticed a series of unexpected changes.

As the internal Qi circulated in his body, some blue ribbons appeared around Fang Qiu.

They were internal Qi!

Fang Qiu could tell at a glance that they were azure internal Qi.

What surprised Fang Qiu the most was that they actually turned into human figures when these ribbons of internal Qi fell around him.

Armored figures!

Were they soldiers?

Fang Qiu could clearly see that the people transformed from internal Qi in front of him were like celestial soldiers and generals. As soon as they began to take shape, they brandished the weapons in their hands and attacked the monsters and evil spirits.

Under the fierce assault of the celestial soldiers and generals, the monsters and evil spirits didn’t have the ability to resist and were quickly killed!

The number of celestial soldiers and generals increased. In a short time, all the monsters and evil spirits were annihilated!

The dream world disappeared as soon as those evil spirits were destroyed.

Fang Qiu finally escaped from the dream, and he opened his eyes.

“Well?”

Old Yang had been standing by Fang Qiu’s side, and when he saw that the quiet Fang Qiu suddenly woke up from his dream as if nothing had happened, he was immediately surprised.

This was the first time he had encountered such a situation.

“Is Fang Qiu uninfected?

“Impossible!”

Old Yang was completely puzzled. He saw Fang Qiu drink a whole bottle of nutrient drink with his own eyes and clearly saw the sign of infection on Fang Qiu’s body. He was very sure that Fang Qiu was infected.

“Could it be that the nutrient drink has gone bad and the number of viruses reduced?” Old Yang said to himself.

After thinking about it carefully, Old Yang felt that his guess was wrong.

This was an infectious disease. It didn’t matter the number of viruses was small. Even if there was only one virus, the virus would replicate itself in the human body within a short time.

Then, how could Fang Qiu, who was clearly infected, still behave like a normal, uninfected person?

“Could it be that he’s found a cure?”

Thinking of this, Old Yang immediately became excited.

If that was the case, it would be great.

The moment Fang Qiu opened his eyes, he felt confused.

He clearly remembered what had happened in the dream just now.

In Fang Qiu’s eyes, that sweet dream was to tempt him, making him relax and lower his guard.

The monsters and evil spirits were the neurotropic viruses that invaded his body!

The internal Qi he activated could actually turn into the celestial soldiers and generals and killed all the evil spirits transformed from the neurotropic virus as if it was born to restrain those viruses.

“Could it be that internal Qi really has an effect on this virus and helps to strengthen body resistance and eliminate pathogenic factors?” Fang Qiu thought.

Fang Qiu stood up abruptly and grabbed Old Yang’s shoulders.

“Huh?”

Old Yang was shocked by Fang Qiu’s sudden move.

He thought that Fang Qiu had not woken up from the dream and now he was sick. He was ready to pour the medicine into Fang Qiu’s mouth with his trembling hands.

But in the next second, Fang Qiu said, “Sir, I might have found a cure.”

When Old Yang heard this, he looked at Fang Qiu again.

Fang Qiu’s eyes were bright, and he was very sober without any symptoms of illness. Old Yang gave a long sigh and said to Fang Qiu, “You almost scared me to death.”

“Uh…”

Fang Qiu was rendered speechless for a moment.

Thinking that Fang Qiu might have found a cure to treat the disease, Old Yang immediately asked Fang Qiu, “Have you really found a cure?”

“I can’t be sure.”

Fang Qiu paused for a moment and continued, “We still need to experiment a bit more!”

“Let’s head back down.”

Old Yang grabbed Fang Qiu’s hand and said, “It’s already evening. Let’s head back down first, and I’ll let you attend to a few patients who are seriously ill.”

“Okay.”

Fang Qiu nodded and went down the mountain with Old Yang.

Going up the mountain was difficult, but going down the mountain was easy.

In just half an hour, they were back at the village.

From a distance, Fang Qiu could see that the medicine Old Yang had placed on the table in front of the door was now gone. The only objects left on the table were empty bowls.

It was obvious that the villagers had consumed the medicine.

“This way.”

Old Yang was even more anxious than Fang Qiu. As soon as he entered the village, he immediately brought Fang Qiu to the family which, as far as he could remember, was most affected by the virus.

Soon, they came to a relatively large one-story house.

“This is the place where a village doctor treats people. It’s a clinic,” Old Yang explained.

“Ever since the outbreak, in order to make it easier for us to treat the patients and prevent accidents, we gathered the patients who suffer the worst symptoms here. They live together. Their families usually take care of them here.”

“Perfect.”

Fang Qiu nodded with understanding.

The people exhibiting the worst symptoms were exactly the people he wanted to see.

The only way to test the effectiveness of his treatment approach was to try it on patients who exhibited the worst symptoms.

They entered the room.

Old Yang said to the patients, “The country sent someone here. Let him treat you.”

Then, he said to Fang Qiu immediately, “Go ahead!”

“Yes.”

Fang Qiu nodded and went straight to the first patient’s bed. While looking at the patient, he reached out to feel the patient’s pulse.

The result of the pulse diagnosis was the same as before.

Fang Qiu could see dark circles around the eyes of all the patients in the clinic.

The cause of those dark circles was obvious.

These people were most likely terrified of falling asleep due to the virus, which explained those dark circles around their eyes.

Fang Qiu finished taking one patient’s pulse.

Without hesitating, Fang Qiu placed his fingers at the Shenting acupoint on the patient’s forehead and then secretly mobilized his internal Qi, sending a stream of internal Qi into the patient’s Governing Meridian.

As soon as the internal Qi entered the patient’s body, it immediately activated the remaining internal Qi in the patient’s body and slowly began to circulate.

Because Fang Qiu’s internal Qi was very strong, the patient’s own internal Qi immediately became stronger with the help of Fang Qiu’s internal Qi.

The patient’s body was originally weak. With the help of Fang Qiu’s internal Qi, the patient quickly recovered.

Old Yang stepped forward and asked, “How is it going?”

“I’m examining him for now, but I’m also taking care of his body along the way.”

Fang Qiu continued, “I’ve already tried my treatment method on the patient. Since the patient isn’t showing any symptoms now, we’ll have to wait until tonight to know more about the treatment’s effectiveness.”

“Okay.”

Old Yang nodded with understanding.

Fang Qiu turned to the next patient, and also sent a stream of internal Qi into the patient’s Governing Meridian to help nurse his weak body.

He channeled his internal Qi into the patient’s Governing Meridian because the virus seemed to be a kind of Yin virus from a Chinese Medicine’s perspective. Therefore, to overcome the effects of a Yin virus, he must use Yang.

In the human body, the Governing Meridian was a Yang meridian, while the Ren Meridian was a Yin meridian. So Fang Qiu could only send internal Qi into the Governing Meridian.

Soon, with the help of Fang Qiu, these critically ill patients all felt better. Then he stayed here with Old Yang in order to see the effect of his treatment at night.

Two hours later, night fell.

“Yawn…”

The patients inside the clinic began to yawn, though none of them dared to close their eyes to sleep. They were all frightened of what awaited them if they fell asleep.

“There’s no need to stay awake, everyone.”

Seeing that none of these patients dared to sleep, Fang Qiu stood up and said to them, “I’ve treated you, so don’t worry. You all can sleep in peace tonight. I promise that there won’t be any problems or injuries.”

After he said these words, all the critically ill patients in the room shook their heads and refused to allow themselves to fall asleep.

None of them believed Fang Qiu’s claim.

They had experienced that dream countless times, and they were terrified.

“Do as he said.”

Old Yang stood up as well. “He’s a very good doctor. You’ll be fine with him here. I’ll stay here too. You can try to get some sleep tonight.”

The patients shook their heads once again.

The patient in the first bed asked, “Tell me the truth, Old Yang. What are you guys doing? He clearly did nothing to us! Why did he say that he has treated us?”

“He said he has treated you, so he must have done that.”

Old Yang looked at the patient and continued, “Don’t worry. Others might lie to you, but I will never lie to you. I brought him here because he was sent here by the country. And he has already found a method to treat this disease. At the moment, he has already used his method on all of you. Right now, he’s just waiting to see if any of you would exhibit symptoms to determine the effectiveness of his treatment method.”

After hearing this, that patient gritted his teeth.

“Anyway, I can’t hold on any longer.”

He shook his head and said, “Promise me one thing, and I’ll help you conduct this experiment.”

Fang Qiu asked, “What is it?”

The patient said with a ferocious face, “Kill me if I start getting sick again. I can’t stand it anymore. It won’t be too painful to die in the dream. I don’t want to be tortured to death by this disease.”

“Okay, I promise.”

Fang Qiu nodded in agreement.

“You!”

Old Yang was completely puzzled. He didn’t know why Fang Qiu agreed.

Fang Qiu said, “Don’t worry. He won’t die.”
