Together With the System to Become a Pharmacist at Once a Doctor
Chapter 163: Prolonged Illness Marks Death.

“I'll leave you alone. I'll wait for you there, okay?” He knew that this Miss Guo had issues to discuss with Wang Yao alone; hence he took the initiative to take another seat. He ordered a cup of coffee and stared at the sea view, pondering.

“Who is this guy? I feel like I've seen it somewhere before.”

“It so happens, I didn't expect to see you in Haiqu,” Guo Sirou smiled and said.

“Yes, I have business to settle with a friend.”

“Then, I'll get straight to the point. I want to invite Doctor Wang to Jing City to see a special patient,”, Guo Sirou said.

“I told Mr. He yesterday, I don't want to go to Jing City,” Wang Yao refused again.

“I assure you, this will not make you trouble,” said Guo Sirou.

Wang Yao smiled and did not reply.

Mission: Treat ten cases of difficult-to-treat diseases within half a year.

The prize for success: A medical book, a formula.

Punishment for failure: Inability to use the system for three months.

Wang Yao heard the system warning at that moment.

Ten diseases that are difficult to treat? Three months? This mission is very strange. Why is it that when I met Secretary Yang's mother, this mission didn't show up? Similarly for the young son of Mr. Sun and also Wei Hai. Why just show up now?!

Although ten cases were not many, and half a year sounded long enough, in fact, the mission was quite difficult to complete. It was the toughest mission Wang Yao had ever faced.

First, what is the definition of a disease that is difficult to treat?

Simple definition is a disease that is difficult to diagnose or difficult to treat—all are generally categorized as difficult to treat. However, for something like rheumatoid arthritis that is considered difficult to treat in modern medicine it is likely to be ruled out of the system definition of a hard-to-treat disease.

Difficult to diagnose and treat— prolonged illness will lead to death. According to the system definition, such a disease is considered difficult to treat and should be slightly stronger than a terminal illness.

There are two aspects to the difficulty of this mission. First, it is very rare to encounter such a disease. Of course, terminal diseases such as cancer do not fall into such a category. Wang Yao's luck wasn't bad, and he had met with several cases of illnesses that were difficult to treat in quick succession. Second, such diseases are very difficult to treat and cannot be treated in a short time. This is mainly because the disease has penetrated into the internal organs. Even if Wang Yao prescribed licorice root, it would take some time to apply. This is evident from his observation of the treatment of Secretary Yang's mother. Furthermore, and most importantly, even if he met someone with such a disease, why would anyone believe that he could treat it? He is very young and still does not have a medical qualification certificate!

This was a sudden mission that felt like mocking him.

“What's up, Doctor Wang?” Guo Sirou asked gently, seeing that Wang Yao had not spoken for quite some time.

“Nothing, I was thinking of some things,” Wang Yao recovered and replied.

“Can you think about what I said earlier?”

…

“I remember now!” Tian Yuantu who was sitting not far away felt a slight tremor in his body. There was shock recorded on his face.

“Isn't this the oldest daughter of the Guo family?” Although he had never seen Guo Sirou before, he had seen He Qisheng. From the source, he had a vague understanding that the single herb Wang Yao had saved the old man on the verge of death from death. As a result, Wang Yao had formed a good relationship with the Guo family. It was unexpected that on this day, the eldest daughter of the Guo family had personally come to look for her. It seems like they are discussing something very important?

…

“How about this, can you show me the patient's medical records and relevant diagnostic information?”

“It should wait. I didn't bring it. Also, I have to ask patient permission because the disease is very strange.”

“Oke, when you get his permission, you can come looking for Me anytime. If nothing else, I'll go now.”

“Sorry to disturb you.”

“Goodbye.”

…

Tian Yuantu drove Wang Yao and left.

“Do you know Miss Guo's identity? I'm referring to his family background,” suddenly Tian Yuantu asked while driving.

“I don't know. Why do I need to know?” Wang Yao smiled and asked.

He knew that Guo Sirou's background was clearly unusual; however, he did not know exactly what his identity was and there was no need to ask.

“You certainly don't have any wishes or requests!” Tian Yuantu smiled and commented. “But there are some better things for you to know. The surname of the governor of Qi Province is Guo.”

“Ah ?!” Although Wang Yao did not care about politics, he knew that a provincial governor was considered a feudal official and was a high position that most officials yearned for but could not obtain.

“This Lady Guo Sirou is supposed to be Governor Guo's daughter.”

Background like that! Wang Yao was stunned by this. It was similar to when he met Secretary Yang.

“Home in Jing City?”

“Yes, his grandfather's status is outstanding. She comes from one of the rich and powerful families in Jing City!” Tian Yuantu.

Even his city secretary friend thirsts for such a relationship with family but has no chance, let alone himself. However, the young man before him had such an opportunity but was unwilling to take it.

Men have different desires, and hence their mentality is different!

For example, with regards to the young man beside him, after so many years and extensive travel experience and after the time spent with him, Tian Yuantu still did not know what the young man wanted.

Is it really living a worry-free life like the ones depicted in the novel that have the highest ideals?

“Ah! Rich and powerful family!” After a while, Wang Yao said these words with emotion. It was as if he was swimming in a sea of many previous thoughts or his nerves jammed, resulting in a delayed response.

“I have to hand it to you.” Tian Yuantu looked at his expression, smiled and shook his head. “Many people have tried ways and means and even used underhanded means to climb the ladder behind the influential power. Such an influential connection has come to you, yet you have no desires or requests and even want to let go of this excellent opportunity. If others find out, they will envy you and may even scold you.”

“I think my current life is fine,” said Wang Yao.

A rich and powerful man with wealth and influence is not something he wants now. To him, these things could not compare to a formula or half a medical book.

Rich family, Jing City? Wang Yao's chaotic thoughts were not as calm as his outer appearance. For someone to be able to persuade such a powerful person to make this request to Me, that person must also be very influential. Coincidentally the system also assigned me this mission. Don't tell me I really can't avoid this?

During the rest of the journey, Wang Yao did not speak, nor did Tian Yuantu.

When he got home, only his sister was home. He was chewing on a large pack of chips and watching a romantic soap opera without a plot.

“Where is Mom and Dad?”

“They go visit friends. They won't be back for dinner. So, you will be in charge of preparing dinner.”

“Why me?” Wang Yao was stunned.

“Because I'm your brother,” said Wang Ru.

“What kind of reason is that?”

“Why don't we use scissors, paper, stone to finish this?”

Around 5pm, Wang Yao and his sister were sitting at the most famous mutton restaurant in the city, drinking mutton soup in a big gulp.

“Hai Kak, you like goat meat soup to drink five times in two days is still not enough?”

“Goat meat soup in restaurant tastes different from Mother's cuisine.”

After losing a game of scissors, paper, stone, Wang Yao was asked to treat it, and the location was in this restaurant.

“In addition, mutton soup is very nutritious!” Wang Ru said.

“Yes, don't overeat and nosebleed.”

…

More than ten miles away in Haiqu City, in a hotel room.

“Uncle Gu, please ask if they agree with what I mentioned earlier.”

“OK, can I see that doctor?” the middle-aged man asked.

“No,” Guo Sirou resists firmly.

“I will contact the governor immediately and ask for his opinion,” said the man named Gu was instantaneous.

“Oke.”

…

The night wind is a little cold. It was already April, right, the weather should not be like that; it was a little unusual.

“It will be raining,” said Wang Yao gently as she raised her head to look up at the sky.

The rain started to fall in the morning the next day. The rain was light and felt melancholic. With the rain falling, the flow of hill springs becomes more lively, and shallow pools fill up faster.

Very clear and shallow; the bottom can be seen. In the pool was a stone in its circumference. The water slowly filled up and rose past the rock.

At that moment, the hill suddenly shook and let out a rumbling sound. The wind and rain seemed to have stopped.

The dog leaped out of its nest, and the eagle flew into the sky from the trees.

“What's up?” Wang Yao walked out of the hut and looked up at the hill.

It was a scene of grasses and gleaming green trees, and breeze and light rain.

He had sensed the tremors and heard the rumbling sounds before; they were palpable.

He stood outside the cottage for a moment. The dog happily gambled in the rain while an excited one circled the sky several times before returning to the trees. Other than this scene, there was no other incident, and everything was normal.

However, Wang Yao could vaguely detect the changes on the hill.

Looking at Nanshan hill from afar, it was shrouded in a fog thicker than the surrounding area.

Rain all day.

Wang Yao practiced breathing exercises and read the scriptures in the hut.

On that day, outside seemed unusually peaceful.

In this part of Nanshan hill, in addition to the sound of wind and rain, the sound of scripture reading in the hut could be heard. Although it was very gentle, it was not overpowered by the sounds of wind and rain. It was heard but not spread through the trees.

“Any, what was his voice earlier..It sounds like an earthquake?”

In the rain, a handful of people were near the Nanshan hill and were therefore vaguely able to detect sounds and vibrations earlier.

“Hey, let's go quickly. What's with Nanshan hill?”

“Rain and fog. What's up again?”

“It feels a little strange. Looking up, it looks good. Why didn't I realize it before?”
