Chapter 519: Testing a New Formula

Of course, Wang Yao knew these issues. In fact, given his current medical skills, he was probably the best doctor in the city and even in the province, let along this small county.

He was currently testing a new formula. He had gained a few new licorice roots, which had been growing very well. He also had a few Prolongation pills left. He wanted to add more licorice roots into the existing Prolongation pill formula to make it more effective. It was all because of his unrealistic thought.

Wang Yao wanted to create a formula that could treat all the diseases, like an elixir in a fairy tale. He wanted the new formula to be able to cure all sorts of diseases and prolong a person’s lifespan.

That was his ultimate goal. It was a wonderful thought, but it would take a lot of hard work to achieve it.

Ding! Om!

When he was busy working, a strange phone number appeared on his phone.

“Hmm?”

Wang Yao had a glance of the number and picked up the phone.

“Hello, am I speaking to Wang Yao?” a very hoarse voice said on the other end of the phone. It was as if the voice was broken.

“Yes, who is this?” Wang Yao asked.

Doo! Doo! Doo! The person on the other side of the phone hung up.

“Who was that?” Wang Yao was confused.

Had the person called just to make sure the phone number was right? He saved the stranger’s number and continued with his study until late into the night.

Wang Yao sat in his courtyard looking at the night sky. He could vaguely see the stars behind the clouds. It was a wonderful feeling. It was as if he could see through a box.

When he was on the hill, he observed the sky whenever he was available. He had been doing this for a long time. He found he could see further and had started to be able to see things behind the clouds.

“It is going to be a nice day tomorrow,” Wang Yao murmured.

Beijing was still a very vibrant city at night. Actually, it was more vibrant at night than during the day since people were busy working during the day. They only time they had to enjoy life and entertain themselves was at night. As for sleep, they didn’t need much of it.

Su Changhe and Lu Xiaomei were catching up in a nice cafe.

“Hi, Xiaomei. Is there anything urgent? You don’t normally ask me to meet with you so late,” Su Changhe said.

“I’ve been to another hospital,” Lu Xiaomei said as she was looking at the lights outside.

“How did it go?” Su Changhe asked.

“The test result indicates that I am fully recovered,” Lu Xiaomei said.

“Really? That’s great,” Su Changhe said.

“But, I can’t believe it,” Lu Xiaomei said.

Although the result of blood test could be incorrect, it indicated that Lu Xiaomei was almost recovered. After all, the error would only be minimal, such as the difference between 99 and 100. They wouldn’t mistake 60 for 100.

“This is easy, come to my hospital tomorrow to get checked,” Su Changhe said with a smile.

“I’ve been thinking about that. I’m really happy,” Lu Xiaomei said.

“I can tell,” Su Changhe said.

“You know, these days I always feel burdened. I’m exhausted. I even thought I would die. What would happen to Xiaoxiao if I died? Dr. Wang gave me hope. Thank you for taking me to see him.” Lu Xiaomei smiled. She hadn’t told anyone about her disease.

“Now you can relax,” Su Changhe said.

“Yes,” Lu Xiaomei said.

“I’m working tomorrow. I’ll wait for you in the hospital,” Su Changhe said.

“OK,” Lu Xiaomei said.

The next morning, the sun rose early, and so did Wang Yao. He was planning on visiting his grandma. It was almost time to worship the Kitchen King. He wanted to see his grandparents and bring them some presents.

Wang Yao’s grandparents were in good spirits. They were busy cleaning when Wang Yao arrived. He helped them cleaning the house for the whole morning. They then had lunch at their house.

“Wow, how can this be possible?” a doctor in Su Changhe’s hospital asked.

“What is it, Dr. Sun?” Su Changhe asked.

“Your friend is fine now,” Dr. Sun said.

“Really? You had a good look at the results?” Su Changhe was smiling.

“Of course. I have gone through the report three times. Look, if you are still worried, ask your friend to come back in 15 days,” Dr. Sun said.

“OK, thank you,” Su Changhe said.

“You are welcome,” Dr. Sun said. He clicked his tongue and stared at the report after Su Changhe and Lu Xiaomei left.

My prescription worked so well? He doubted it. After all, it was not the first time he had prescribed those medications to patients with a similar condition to Lu Xiaomei. However, it had never worked so well. He had no idea what had happened.

“Now do you have peace of mind?” Su Changhe asked.

“Yes,” Lu Xiaomei said.

“Ha-ha. I guess Dr. Sun is confused about the results. By the way, did you take the medications he prescribed for you?” Su Changhe asked.

“Yes, I didn’t want to raise any suspicion from him,” Lu Xiaomei said.

“Those medications are not cheap. Why did you buy all of them?” Su Changhe asked.

“I didn’t take any of those pills. I sold them to a drug store. Two of the medications are actually quite popular. It’s not easy to get them in an ordinary drug store,” Lu Xiaomei said. One of her friends ran a drug store. She sold all those medications to that friend.

“I want to go to the village again to thank Dr. Wang. By the way, do you know what he likes?” Lu Xiaomei asked.

“Hmm, let me think about it,” Su Changhe said. “I saw many medical books and some Taoism scriptures on his table. I presume he’s interested in those things, especially antique stuff.”

“Antique? I see,” Lu Xiaomei said.

There are many old houses in Beijing. Some of them had been purchased by powerful and wealthy people. The rest were still occupied by residents who had lived in Beijing generation after generation.

In the bedroom of an old house, several people were sitting around a bed. A skinny old man was lying on the bed. His face was dry and yellow. He looked like a sick old pine tree.

“Dad?” one of the old man’s children called gently.

“Em,” the weak old man responded. He was a bit short of breath.

“Dr. Chen?” one of the old man’s children asked.

“Your dad’s condition has been deteriorating very fast, faster than I expected,” Dr. Chen said. “I’ll try to keep him alive. However, if you want him to get better, you will need to go elsewhere to seek for treatment.”

“How about surgery?” one of the old man’s children asked.

Dr. Chen frowned. “I don’t recommend surgery given your dad’s age and his condition.”

Surgery would damage a person’s fundamental health. Whoever went through a surgery would lose a large amount of Qi because the human body was a closed entity. A surgical procedure would cut open the body and damage the wholeness of a human being. Like a vehicle, the engine would never function the same after it had been dismantled.

“I see,” Wu Tongxing said. “I’ll go to the village right now.”

He left for Wang Yao’s village right away.

“Chief, you have an important meeting tomorrow,” his assistant said.

“Tell them I’m not going,” Wu Tongxing said.

This was Wu Tongxing’s third visit to Lianshan in a month.

Meanwhile, Wang Yao was seeing Lu Xiaomei, who had come all the way from Beijing.

“Good, I’ll give you one last decoction,” Wang Yao said.

“Thank you,” Lu Xiaomei said.

She was fine now. Her largest burden was gone. Therefore, she looked much happier.

“Dr. Wang, this is a small gift. I want to give it to you for curing me. I hope you’ll like it,” Lu Xiaomei said.

“I accept your gratitude, but don’t worry about gifts,” Wang Yao said.

“Please accept it. It’s just a book,” Lu Xiaomei said.

“Book? An antique book?” Wang Yao asked.

“Yeah, sort of. The book was written in the late Qing Dynasty. I bought if from a library. It didn’t cost much,” Lu Xiaomei said.

“Can I have a look?” Wang Yao asked.

He was very interested in antique books, especially medical books. However, Lu Xiaomei didn’t bring a medical book for him. It was a Taoism scripture called Treatise of the Most Exalted One on Cause and Effect.

He was attracted by the book after going through a few pages. It was an antique book written in old Chinese. It was a good book.

“Thank you,” Wang Yao said.

“I’m glad you like it,” Lu Xiaomei said.

She was in good mood when she left the clinic. She felt relieved.

A car came into the village late in the afternoon. A person got out of the car in a hurry after he parked outside Wang Yao’s clinic.
