The Medical Guru

Chapter 1398 You’re Indeed a Chinese Medicine Practitioner

“It really looks like a conspiracy to make you go to Murica.”

Li Ji raised his eyebrows and said. After a brief pause, he added, “I advise you not to go. There’s no need to take this risk. The Murica Medical Association’s invitation looks great. But in fact, it won’t bring any benefits to you or the country. Instead, it will put you in danger!”

Fang Qiu heard his rational analysis.

He began to think carefully.

As Li Ji said, he would not gain anything even if he accepted this invitation. Nor could it bring any interest to his country. On the contrary, it might endanger Fang Qiu.

The government was clear that Fang Qiu was currently one of the top Chinese Medicine doctors in Huaxia. He was a rare talent, so they must do their best to protect him. But they could no longer guarantee his safety once he accepted the invitation.

Moreover, Fang Qiu had another identity: John Doe. John Doe was also a great help to the country when competing with other countries. The country couldn’t bear to lose either Fang Qiu or John Doe!

But Fang Qiu was caught in a dilemma.

As John Doe, he could choose not to go!

But as Fang Qiu. He had to go!

“I’ll go!”

After thinking for a while, Fang Qiu said with a solemn face.

“Why?”

Li Ji was confused.

Fang Qiu was smart. He was meticulous in everything and could always do his best. But why would he make such a choice in this matter? If he went to Murica, he would have to sacrifice his safety.

“For Chinese Medicine…”

Fang Qiu said, “Just like the heated discussion on the Internet, it is a great opportunity to make Chinese Medicine famous. Even the Murica Medical Association has begun to accept traditional medicine, and Chinese Medicine doctor has been invited to join an academic exchange. If this matter is widely spread all over the world, it will be very beneficial to Chinese Medicine’s development.

“It may be just an excuse for the Murica to cover its real intention. But even so, it can still greatly impact Chinese Medicine’s development!

“Now, Chinese Medicine has gradually gone international. Although foreigners know it, its development in foreign countries is still extremely slow. To be exact, it grows at a snail’s pace. Why? The world’s mainstream medicines have not yet recognized Chinese Medicine. Thus, all the countries dare not publicize Chinese Medicine widely. Meanwhile, people worldwide dare not trust Chinese Medicine completely.”

“I may change the situation by accepting the Murica Medical Association’s invitation. The barriers between people from all over and Chinese Medicine would likely be broken. Hence, Chinese Medicine will meet in an all-round flourishing!”

At this point…

Fang Qiu smiled and said, “It is a great opportunity to promote Chinese Medicine’s development. It’s worthwhile to sacrifice my safety for it!”

“But…”

Li Ji said in disapproval, “It’s a trap, but you still choose to jump in it. Is this really a good idea?”

“I’ve thought about it.”

Fang Qiu replied, “It’s a medical exchange on the surface. I suppose they should be very polite to me. At least, they will pretend to be so before others.

“This is the third step for Chinese Medicine to go global. Attending Medical Exchange Conference was the first step I took. It successfully attracted some attention in this world. The second step was completed because medicines like Earthly Immortal Pills have won some influence and fame. Now it’s time for us to implement the third step — I should show up and do something in person!

“Under the influence of the first two steps, many people, especially big shots of international medical circles, would give attention to every single action of mine. So, I believe the Murica won’t dare to do anything to me.”

At this point…

Li Ji kept shaking his head with a wry smile and said, “Both soldiers and Chinese Medicine doctors have their missions to accomplish. If you say so, I really can’t stop you anymore.

“You, you are indeed an authentic Chinese Medicine practitioner!”

Fang Qiu nodded matter-of-factly.

Soon after…

After saying goodbye to Li Ji, Fang Qiu left the military base.

He changed back to Fang Qiu’s identity on the car that took him away from the military base. After putting on a mask and a hat, he hurriedly returned to the University of Jiangjing Chinese Medicine.

Fang Qiu was back at the school that he hadn’t been to for a long time. Like before, he sneaked in from the back door, trotting to the office building for teachers. Finally, he came to the door of Chen Yinsheng’s office.

Fortunately, no one recognized him on the way.

“Knock, knock, knock…”

Arriving at the Vice President’s office door, Fang Qiu reached out and knocked on it. Then he pushed the door open and entered.

“Vice President Chen.”

Seeing Chen Yinsheng sitting before his desk, Fang Qiu immediately went up to him.

“Hey, why are you back?”

When Fang Qiu approached him, Chen Yinsheng was stunned.

“Uh.”

Fang Qiu was embarrassed.

“Here, come here. Sit down.”

Chen Yinsheng shook his head with a smile and said, “But you have been busy these days. Why do you have time to come back here? Have you finished making arrangements for your foundation and the Chinese Medicine market?”

“More or less.”

Fang Qiu nodded and said, “Everything is going smoothly. I believe a big change will happen in the Chinese Medicine market.”

“Well done.”

With satisfaction, Chen Yinsheng nodded and said, “You have been determined to do practical things. The Chinese Medicine industry needs people like you. Only in this way can the Chinese Medicine industry revive its original vigor!”

“I came back for the Murica Medical Association’s invitation.”

Fang Qiu spoke up, “I’ve decided to accept their invitation!”

“Haha.”

Chen Yinsheng burst out laughing and said, “I knew it. You wouldn’t let go of this great opportunity.”

Fang Qiu smiled.

He felt a little bitter.

He couldn’t tell the truth. It appeared to be a very glorious thing but was very dangerous!

“I’ll stay at school for a few days. If you need anything, just come to me.”

Fang Qiu told him.

“Alright.”

Chen Yinsheng nodded and scolded with a smile, “Listen to me, young guy. Our school has become your temporary resting place. I’ve been teaching my whole life, but I only met one strange student like you.”

Fang Qiu’s smile became more bitter.

“All right, hurry up and go.”

Chen Yinsheng waved at Fang Qiu and said, “Xu Miaolin and Cheng Yang, the two highly-skilled doctors are in school. You can attend his classes and meet them.”

“Mm.”

Fang Qiu nodded.

He left the office building. At this time, all classes in the teaching building had already begun. The highly-skilled doctor Cheng Yang was giving a lecture to many students in the vast auditorium.

The entire auditorium was full of people.

Initially, the school arranged for the highly-skilled doctor Cheng Yang to lecture in the teaching building. However, too many people came to listen to his lectures. Besides, he was too busy to give more lectures. Thus, the auditorium was used for him to give lessons.

Even so, the auditorium was still full of people.

Quietly, he came to the back of the auditorium.

While everyone was listening attentively, Fang Qiu also began to listen carefully.

When the class was about to end, Fang Qiu left in advance. He came to Cheng Yang’s lounge, waiting for him.

“Old Yang.”

When Cheng Yang returned to the lounge, Fang Qiu immediately stood up and greeted him respectfully.

“Oh, you’re here.”

Old Yang nodded with a smile, waved his hand, and said, “Have a seat.”

“Come on, let’s go somewhere outside to chat.”

Fang Qiu stepped forward and said with a smile, “Long time no see. It’s time for dinner now. I’ve told the chef on the canteen’s second floor to prepare some wine and dishes. Let’s talk while eating.”

“Alright.”

Old Yang did not stand on ceremony and walked into the canteen with Fang Qiu.

Since he was with Old Yang…

Those students didn’t dare to gather around them when seeing Fang Qiu. After all, they were fearful of disturbing Old Yang. Thus, they could only wave their hands in the distance to greet Fang Qiu and Old Yang.

Although he was old, Old Yang was in good health. It was not difficult for him to go upstairs.

They came to a private room on the second floor.

After sitting down, Fang Qiu poured a glass of Heaven Dew he brought from Beijiang for Old Yang.

Then he sat down.

“Good wine.”

After a gentle sip, Old Yang laughed out loud, his eyes sparkling joyfully.

“I know you don’t drink, but I made this myself. It’s not harmful to your health. Instead, it can nourish your body. So, I brought you some to have a taste.”

Fang Qiu explained with a smile.

“That’s very nice of you.”

Old Yang nodded with a smile.

“Have you gotten used to life in school?”

Fang Qiu asked.

“Yes, sure. I feel full of vigor now. Supported by this energy, I feel I can live for a few more years.”

Old Yang laughed and said.

“As a highly-skilled doctor, you’ll live to a ripe old age.”

Fang Qiu smiled and said with certainty.

Then, they chatted and ate.

After dinner, Fang Qiu sent Old Yang back to the lounge. Then, he took leave of him and went to the school library for Xu Miaolin.

He came to the library.

Fang Qiu saw many students lining up with books in their hands — they wanted to ask Xu Miaolin for advice.

After all, Xu Miaolin had joined the second season of the Young Chinese Medicine Doctor. All the teachers and students in the school knew he was a highly-skilled doctor. As a result, a lot of students came to him for advice.

Fang Qiu watched them from a distance.

After some time, Xu Miaolin finished helping these students out with their queries. These students sat down in the library and began to study by themselves. Only then did Fang Qiu walk into the reading room.

“Is there anything you don’t understand?”

Xu Miaolin asked without raising his head.

“Mr. Xu, I want to ask if you can drink.”

With a smile, Fang Qiu put down a small jar of wine the size of a rugby on the table.

“Eh?”

Xu Miaolin raised his head. The moment he saw Fang Qiu, his eyes blazed. Immediately, he said, “You came at the right time. Let me experience the flows of meridians and Qi. I feel I’m about to get upgraded!”

Fang Qiu heard it.

His eyes lit up.

He asked, “Holy Doctor?”

“Yes.”

Xu Miaolin nodded.

“Go.”

Fang Qiu immediately picked up the wine jar and said, “Let’s go to Yaowang Mountain!”

After that…

They arrived at Yaowang Mountain.

“Take a sip first.”

At the top of Yaowang Mountain, Fang Qiu handed the jar to Xu Miaolin and said, “This is the wine I made. It’s good for meridians and can help Qi circulation.”

“A sip is enough. You may not stand it if you drink too much.”

Xu Miaolin heard his introduction.

At first, he sniffed at it curiously and took a sip with a suspicious face.

As soon as he drank it, he felt hot and dry.

Fang Qiu instantly put his hand on his back and began to activate his power.

He let Xu Miaolin feel the existence of meridians. Then, he added a little internal Qi. When the liquor’s strength was added, he circulated the internal Qi in his body.
