“Ubi Corydalis, Dahurian Angelica root, licorice, and what else…? Tang kuei, Poria cocos..Hmmm, something's not right!”.
Dr. Chen frowned.
Of the two herbs Wang Yao brewed, she could see most of the potions that went into them. Just a few of the most important ingredients, or “inti”, that he could not understand, no matter how hard he thought. Impossible, however, it was a magic potion. Although Dr. Chen has decades of experience, and is also known as “the sage of Xinglin”, after all, this is an herb he has never seen or heard of before.
…
In another part of Beijing, Zhang Xiufang recounted to her husband the events of the day.
“Hmm, sounds too good. Why do I feel this is so unreliable ?! ” Uncle Wang Yao commented.
“I've seen that company; it doesn't look fake.”
“That's Keda company that's not too far from our home, right?”
“It's true.”
“The company is clearly not a fake; it has been around for ten years. I myself have been there.”
“Why don't I try this company alone?” Zhang Xiufang asked.
“But I still feel there is something suspicious about all this. The company is fine. Why do they invite you to work for no reason?” Husband objected. This is not to bring down his wife. He was more clear than anyone that his wife had no special education or talent, but he was kind and honest. However, that was not the reason the company specifically went looking for him!
“Yes, I also feel a bit strange. But then, why are they trying to deceive me? I have nothing for them.”
“Hmm. Maybe you should ask Yao; it might have something to do with him.” Zhang Xiufang's husband suddenly thought of this, and his eyes twinkled.
“What? What does this have to do with him?”
“There is no harm in asking. It seems to me that Yao's connection in Beijing is abnormal.”
“OK, then I'll ask him.”
…
In the middle of the small courtyard, Wang Yao suddenly received a call from her second aunt.
“Halo aunty, is something wrong?”
“What, work? Oh, right, I've asked my friend about it before. You can check it out,” Wang Yao said with a smile.
…
“It was really Yao!” Zhang Xiufang said to her husband, after hanging up the phone. “She said she asked a friend for help.”
“Your affection for her is not in vain. You have to resign from your job tomorrow and try to work at Keda company. It is also very close to home.”
“I will.”
…
In another lab in Beijing, there were some scientists working in a hurry.
“How?”
“Professor, we still can not determine the contents. It still takes time to break it down.”
“Still not determined?”
“No.”
Dr. Chen had taken samples from both of Wang Yao's potions in hopes that he could determine the components of the potions using advanced machines. Unfortunately, it does not give useful results.
In fact, this experiment has been conducted several times outside of China. They wanted to determine and isolate useful components of Chinese medicine and get rid of unreliable methods like those used traditionally. Unfortunately, most of them did not succeed. This is the depth of a thousand years of Chinese medicinal practice! In it, there is the principle of Yin and Yang, and the interdependent interaction between the five elements. Medicine is not only a treatment, but also a way of life. It contained many things, and it could not be understood simply by empirically breaking them down into their components.
…
The next day, the sky in Beijing was foggy, making one feel uncomfortable looking at it. This is normal in Beijing.
Chen Ying walked over to Wang Yao, with a flight ticket in hand.
“Thank you, how much is this?”
“No need,” replied Chen Ying, smiling.
“How can I? That's another matter altogether, ” replied Wang Yao.
“Because we invite you to take care of the patient, we are unlikely to make you pay for your own transportation, right?”
“Alright, then I will trouble you to accompany me again.”
“Sure.”
Then, Wang Yao called her second aunt. Currently her aunt has just completed the administrative procedures of her resignation and is on her way to Keda company. Hearing that Wang Yao had a ticket for them, she asked him to wait in their house.
“Aircraft?” After receiving the flight ticket, Zhang Xiufang was stunned.
It had been ten years since he had moved to Beijing. All this time, they never could bear to get on an airplane. Every time they returned to the Lianshan area, they would always take the train.
“Yes. Will cousin come too?”
“She should. It's school break time. It's a short break before the final exam.”
“OK, then I will come pick you up then.”
“Sure. Oh yes, thanks for the work.”
“Don't worry about that; we are family. Have you received it?”
“Not yet, I'm actually on my way there,” Zhang Xiufang replied.
“Should I go with you?”
“Oke.”
Wang Yao thus accompanied his second aunt to the Keda company building. Upon seeing Zhang Xiufang, Zhao was very pleased. After completing the signing of the contract, he had Zhang Xiufang report to work after the labor day holiday.
“Thank you.”
“By pleasure.”
After changing jobs, Zhang Xiufang was also somewhat pleased.
“Are you having dinner with us tonight?”
“No, I have to finish some work.”
After sending his second aunt back, Wang Yao returned to the small courtyard. After returning home, he found a bright-looking young man there, waiting for him. He's seen this guy before.
“Halo Mr. Guo,” Chen Ying said with a smile. As he said this, there was an almost invisible change to his facial expression.
“Hai Ying's. I've said many times, don't call me Sir, just call me Guo or Zhenghe. The way you say Master makes us sound like we are still in the past, ”Guo Zhenghe laughed when he said this.
“I dare not,” replied Chen Ying.
“Brother Wang, I'm sorry. You've been here for a while, but I've only now come to visit.”
“No problem,” said Wang Yao, waving his hand. To be honest, he had no business with this young master, and he did not want to have one either.
“Does Brother Wang have any settings tonight?”
“Yes, I'll see my patient,” replied Wang Yao. He was preparing to leave Beijing the next morning and wanted to see Su Xiaoxue once again tonight.
“Oh. To be honest, I've made arrangements with some friends, and I'd like to introduce you to them. Since you are busy, how about next time?”
Wang Yao smiled but did not reply. Guo Zhenghe then spent time chatting with Wang Yao before leaving.
“Ny. Chen, it seems like you don't like this young master of the Guo family too much?” After Guo left, Wang Yao asked Chen Ying with a smile. Over the past few days, there have been many visitors to this small page. There were old men like Guo Sirou's grandfather, and then young men like Guo Zhenghe. Chen Ying's attitude towards them was all more or less consistent, speaking to them respectfully or respectfully. Today was the first time Chen Ying had deliberately avoided guests, and Wang Yao had never seen this kind of tense behavior from Chen Ying before.
“No way, how can I? He was the rich young master of a wealthy household,” Chen Ying denied with a laugh.
Wang Yao did not ask any further. Since he didn't like it, he must have had his reasons.
That night, no one came to disturb him. A quiet dinner is actually preferred.
After dinner, she traveled again to the Su household to check on Su Xiaoxue's condition.
The disease has stabilized and is showing signs of improvement. This is the result of his treatment.
“Dr. Wang, are you leaving tomorrow morning?”
“It's true.”
“About Xiaoxue disease, we still have to trouble you further,” said Su Xiaoxue's mother. There was a lot of effort around his words.
“Because I've come and seen the patient, I will naturally do my best until the patient recovers,” replied Wang Yao, sounding very serious.
“OK, that's good.”
Wang Yao's words made him feel much more comfortable.
Wang Yao sat by the patient's bedside for a moment longer and noticed that Su Xiaoxue was staring at him.
“Halo, my name is Wang Yao,” he said with a smile.
Su Xiaoxue blinked after hearing that.
So he was called Wang Yao.
“Rest,” said Wang Yao calmly. She was not sure if Su Xiaoxue could hear what she said clearly.
“Hold your mind and calm your heart, with calmness comes clarity. Without spending any effort, without any interruption.” Wang Yao gently recited a few lines from Natural Classics.
“What is it?” Su Xiaoxue's mother, Song Ruiping, heard her and asked. He was shocked and showed signs of incomprehension.
“This sentence from the classic,” replied Wang Yao with a smile.
He also did not know why he had suddenly recited this line. After all, this was a book of systems that held many mysteries. He developed his inner breathing technique through learning from this book as well as clearing out many channels and meridians. Feeling sympathy for Su Xiaoxue, she decided to recite a few lines, in the hope that Su Xiaoxue could hear them and ponder over them.
“Tomorrow, before I leave, I will come and visit once again.”
“Thank you very much.”
Ruiping's song saw Wang Yao come out. Only after seeing Chen Ying leave did he then return home.
“Just now, what is he reading?” He asked his son.
“It looks like it's Taoist scripture. I'll ask Dr. Chen.”
“Oke.”
Over the phone, he recited a few lines that he remembered from the scriptures. Wang Yao's voice was very gentle, and he didn't pay much attention. Therefore, he only heard a few lines and did not remember all of them.
“This is a Natural Classic; it's one of the scriptures of Taoism that speaks of the path of nature. It can be used to calm the mind and heart,” replied Dr. Chen by phone.
“I never thought this young man was so familiar with Taoist scriptures as well! Could he be a doctor from legend? But the method is not the same.”
…
It's late. The crescent moon hung in the sky.
Wang Yao and Chen Ying arrive at special place—Big Wall China.
Right; it's the Great Wall. Not during the day, but at night. He suddenly got inspired and wanted to see it. That's why they came.
“This place gives people a comfortable feeling!”
One great wall, stretching for ten thousand miles, crossed the world— made of bricks and stones, and had an impressive majesty. At the same time, who knows how many bones are buried under this wall.
That night, Wang Yao felt something stir in her heart.
His body starts to move, sometimes moves fast, sometimes moves slowly. His palms and fists cross each other.
Chen Ying moved to the side. He heard the sound of the wind; it was the sound of the wind created from Wang Yao's punches and palms.
Booms!
Suddenly there was a sound of an explosion, as if someone had detonated explosives.
“What?!” Chen Ying suddenly exclaimed. He was stunned, as if he had seen a ghost.
Wang Yao's eyes lit up, and his body trembled. He had opened another meridian!
It's a nice surprise.
Just now, the punch came from Zhou Xiong's fist art book. Complexity in simplicity, one blow split the air. It's called “boxes splitting the air.”
He stood there pondering, gathering his thoughts for a while before finally turning towards Chen Ying.
