Professor Wu was capable and held a high social status . Everything about him made people admire and envy him . Professor Wu was no longer young, but he was dedicated and focused on this work . He impressed every other doctor .
It was no surprise for a person like Professor Wu to be successful . He didn't become a professor overnight . He had always worked hard . A person required both gift and hard work to be a high achiever .
On the other hand, these doctors had a stable job with a good salary . Slowly, they lost the motivation to achieve more .
It was not good for people to stay in their comfortable zone for too long . An easy and comfortable life would make people lose their motivation and ambition .
It was a bit cold at night . Wang Yao looked up at the sky on Nanshan Hill .
I wonder how Professor Wu is doing with the test?
Meanwhile, in Lianshan People's hospital, Professor Wu continued his test .
"Teacher, please take a break . We can do these things for you," a young assistant said .
"Yeah, you are already tired after the trip . It's 10 p . m . . You should go rest," another assistant said .
"I'm fine," Professor Wu said as he shook his hand .
The second bottle of decoction was in use . The effect was obvious .
What exactly is inside?
Professor Wu was not the only person who had questions . Every doctor in the hospital had the same query . However, they thought the decoction was brought by Professor Wu from Beijing .
The doctors thought, Specialists from Beijing are really different! Their contempt and resistance to Professor Wu disappeared . This world was ruled by facts and capability .
Professor Wu didn't leave until it was nearly midnight .
"Give the decoction to the patient four hours later, and make sure you document every detail," Professor Wu said .
"Sure," an assistant said .
He breathed a sigh of relief and stood up . However, he stumbled and almost fell since his legs were a bit numb .
"Professor!" His assistant held his arm . "Are you alright?"
"I'm fine . My legs are a bit numb," Professor Wu said .
"Let me give you a massage . " His assistant squatted down .

"I'm fine . I just need to walk a bit . " He walked back and forth twice in the corridor of the hospital and felt better afterward . He then went to rest in the place arranged by Lianshan People's Hospital .
He was truly tired . After all, he was nearly 60 years old . It was a long trip for him from Beijing to Lianshan . He didn't take any breaks after he had arrived at the hospital . He started to observe and treat the patients right away . Finally, the patients started to get better . Once he stopped working, he felt exhausted .
I'm really getting old! Professor Wu sighed .
He didn't fall to sleep immediately while lying on the bed . He was thinking about Wang Yao and his decoctions .
How did he make it? Or, does the disease have something to do with him? The latter made Professor Wu frown . If that is the case, what could I do? That young man would be a really horrible person .
He gradually fell asleep as he was thinking .
Meanwhile, his assistants were still in the observation room .
"Where do you think the decoctions are from?" one of the assistants asked .
"How am I supposed to know?" the other assistant said .
The two were talking in low voice . They had been following Professor Wu for years .
"The decoctions worked . Do you think the professor is hiding something from us?" one of the assistants asked .
"So what? Does he have to tell us everything?" the other assistant replied .
"That is not what I mean," the first assistant said .
The sun rose early the next morning . It was March . The trees started to turn green, and the flowers started to turn red .
Professor Wu got up early and arrived at the observation room before 6 a . m .
His two assistants had been observing the patient . One fell asleep at the table . He looked exhausted .
"Hey, the professor is here!" The other assistant pushed the one who was sleeping .
"Just leave him there," Professor Wu said .
"Professor!" The asleep young man suddenly woke up .
"How is the patient?" Professor Wu asked .

"He is stable . We gave him the second bottle of decoction," one of the assistants said .
Professor Wu checked the notes made by his assistants while he was away . He read through the notes over and over again to make sure everything was fine . He then entered the isolated room .
Lianshan People's Hospital was small . The so-called isolated room was not strictly isolated .
The patient, a middle-aged man, was lying on the bed . He had vomited occasionally the whole night, so he felt very weak and uncomfortable .
"How are you feeling? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?" Professor Wu asked .
"I feel uncomfortable everywhere," the patient said .
"Can you go into details? Try to describe your feelings," Professor Wu said .
"I feel weak and nauseous, and I have a headache . Actually, every part of my body aches," the patient said .
His face was wax yellow .
"He needs nutrition," Professor Wu said .
"OK," his assistant said .
After Professor Wu and his assistant left the isolated room, the other doctors from the hospital gradually came to work . They were all very happy . The patient's condition made them hopeful .
"Hey, where is Professor Wu?" a doctor asked .
"He's gone out," one of Professor Wu's assistants said .
"Has he had breakfast?" the doctor asked .
"He said he'd grab something to eat on his way," the assistant said .
None of the doctors said anything .
Professor Wu was on his way to the village . He was having a cup of warm soy milk and a bun in the car . He looked through the window while thinking . The trees alongside the road had started to sprout .
It was only 7:30 a . m . when he arrived at the village .
"Why is the old man here again?" The guard was surprised to see Professor Wu .
"I want to go inside," Professor Wu said .

"OK," the guard said .
After completing the paperwork, Professor Wu entered the village with one of his assistants .
The door of Wang Yao's clinic was still locked . Wang Yao was still on Nanshan Hill .
"He's not here yet . " Professor Wu waited for about 20 minutes .
"Professor?" His assistant was a bit impatient . To him, the professor's time was too precious to be wasted on waiting . This was a critical moment . The patient had just started to get better .
"Be patient," Professor Wu said .
The two of them continued to wait . A moment later, they saw Chen Ying and Chen Zhou, who had come out to do morning exercises .
"Good morning, Professor Wu," Chen Ying said .
"Good morning," Professor Wu said .
"How long have you been waiting here?" Chen Ying asked .
"To be honest, we've been waiting here for nearly an hour," Professor Wu's assistant grumpily said .
"Shut up!" Professor Wu scolded him .
"Did you come here to see Dr . Wang?" Chen Ying asked .
"Yes, to ask for more decoctions," Professor Wu said .
"I see, give me a moment . " Chen Ying walked aside to call Wang Yao .
"I see . Can you ask him to wait for a bit longer?" Wang Yao asked .
Two bottles are not enough? Wang Yao grabbed some herbs to brew another decoction .
It was not a very fast process to brew a decoction . At least, it took longer than making a bowl of noodle soup .
"What's wrong with him?" Professor Wu's assistant was becoming increasingly impatient .
They waited for another hour . Finally, they saw Wang Yao walking down from Nanshan Hill .
"He's been on the hill?" Professor Wu's assistant wondered .
"I'm sorry to keep you waiting," Wang Yao said .
"That's fine," Professor Wu said with a smile .
"Please come inside . " Wang Yao unlocked the door and invited everyone into the clinic .
"I'll make you guys a cup of tea," Wang Yao said .
"Thank you," Professor Wu said .
He felt much more relaxed inside Wang Yao's clinic, unlike in the hospital .
"How is the patient?" Wang Yao asked .
"He's getting better . Your decoctions worked," Professor Wu said .
"That's good," Wang Yao said .
"I brewed some more decoctions on the hill . That's why I was so late . " He took out three bottles and placed them on the table . "Please take the three bottles back to the hospital and give them to the patient to take . "
"Sure . May I ask what the decoctions contain?" Professor Wu asked .
"Well, I'll discuss that with you on a different day," Wang Yao said .
"OK," Professor Wu said .
Chen Ying and Chen Zhou talked with Wang Yao for a while after Professor Wu left .
"Dr . Wang, is this decoction very valuable?" Chen Ying asked .
"Not really . It's different to the decoctions for Chen Zhou . This one was not hard to make," Wang Yao said .
The decoctions Wang Yao gave Professor Wu only contained common herbs . Only the dandelion and bristle grass were special because they had a limited supply . However, all the herbs were from Wang Yao's herbal field, which were impacted by the Spirit Gathering Battle Array . Those herbs grew extremely fast .
"Is everything gonna be fine with the help of your decoction?" Chen Ying asked .
"I hope so," Wang Yao said . However, he didn't think it would be that easy .
Professor Wu rushed back to the hospital with the decoctions .
"Professor, the decoctions we've been using are from that young doctor?" Professor Wu's assistant still found it hard to believe .
"Yes, don't tell anyone about it for now," Professor Wu said .
"I see!" The young man's eyes flashed with surprise .
