What made me the happiest was that she was only interested in me. It gave me an indescribable sense of accomplishment. Our relationship had been quite bumpy. I had once thought that it would be impossible for me and Guan Ruolan to be together. However, little by little, I had gradually healed the deep wound in her heart.
Now, I could come to her house openly and get Grandpa Guan's approval. It was a hard-won happiness.
"Xiao Zhuang, I don't deny your achievements in martial arts, but your medical knowledge has reached an unheard of level. Even if you practice martial arts to the acme of perfection, it won't be of much use. After all, this is an era of peace. However, if you continue to study medicine, it will be different. It's not an exaggeration to say that if you can conquer cancer, it will mean that humanity has taken a big step forward!" Elder Guan said calmly. He paused for a while and then continued.
"Think about it, how great it is. In the future, your name will be passed down in history and recorded in textbooks. You will have both fame and fortune!"
Elder Guan's aged voice had a bewitching power when he said those words. I couldn't help but feel my heart pounding. I couldn't deny that Elder Guan's words were reasonable. Nowadays, most people didn't pay attention to martial arts. Instead, they worshiped those Kung Fu movie stars. This was unavoidable.
However, it was different in the medical field. Birth, old age, sickness, and death was a process that everyone had to experience. Although many people complained about some of the problems that existed in hospitals on the internet, when they encountered an illness that they couldn't stand, they would still go to the hospital for treatment. Especially those who were rich, they even hired specialized private doctors and had regular checkups. One could imagine how important health was to people nowadays. Food, clothing, housing, and transportation were all inextricably related to health.
Just like what Elder Guan had said, if I could solve this incurable disease, it would be the progress of an era. Hua Xia's status in the world would also increase.
To be honest, it was almost impossible to change the situation of the world by yourself. Even the leaders of countries didn't have the confidence to say that. However, in Elder Guan's eyes, I had this condition. That was why he was thick-skinned enough to enlighten me.
"Yes, Elder Guan is right!" I nodded subconsciously. Seeing that I didn't reject it, he couldn't help but smile.
"Furthermore, if you are full of energy, you don't need to slack off on learning martial arts. All you need to do is devote a portion of your attention and focus on mastering this area as soon as possible. When that time comes, even our country will be proud of you!" Guan Lao Da gave me a meaningful look, unable to conceal his excitement.
Although he was known as Miracle Doctor Guan and was proficient in all kinds of difficult and complicated diseases, compared to me, there was still a big gap. He hoped that Chinese medicine would be recognized by the world while he was still alive. After all, it was true that Hua Xia had a long history. However, martial arts and medical skills were just bragging. To put it bluntly, he was just trying to make himself look good.
This statement caused a lot of dissatisfaction from the netizens. However, there wasn't any convincing evidence. After all, it was impossible to trace it back to ancient times. It was just a fantasy story.
As a person at the top of the medical field, Elder Guan naturally had a lot of responsibilities. However, he was old, and his energy was limited. If he wanted to promote Chinese medicine, he didn't have the ability to do so.
Coincidentally, Elder Guan saw a glimmer of hope in me. Just by using acupuncture and other treatment methods, I could kill most of the cancer cells. If this news was spread out, it would definitely cause a sensation in the world.
Seeing my calm expression, Elder Guan didn't realize what it meant at all. He could only say that the young man in front of him had a calm mind. He wasn't arrogant or impatient. Even he felt that he couldn't compare to him.
"I can, Elder Guan. Don't worry. Although my main focus is on martial arts, I haven't neglected the improvement of medicine. My plan is to develop a prescription when I have time. It can be used to stabilize the condition of cancer. After that, when I have free time, I will devote myself to it and see if I can develop a medicine that can cure cancer!" I thought for a moment, then told him my short-term plan.
"Eh …" Elder Guan was stunned again. He originally thought that I would take some time out to treat cancer patients. Of course, this should include the top figures of various countries. Only then would it be convincing and the authority of Chinese medicine would be well-deserved.
In the end, he never expected that I would consider developing a drug. Without a doubt, this was a bold and challenging idea, but it had an unusual meaning. Even if I cured the top leaders of the various countries, the netizens of the world would definitely be dissatisfied. There were tens of thousands of patients, but only the ones with the highest status were able to be cured. My personal ability was limited, and it was impossible for me to take care of so many people. However, this idea of developing a drug was a good solution to this problem.
If it could be realized, it would be a great blessing to the patients around the world. If it was before, Elder Guan would definitely think that I was exaggerating, but not now. With Wu Lei as an example, he was full of confidence and couldn't wait to see the finished product.
"Good, good, good. Xiao Zhuang, as a doctor, we should think about the world. It is my honor that you have this kind of thought." Elder Guan applauded me excitedly.
"Grandpa, you can talk, but why did you bring me into this?!"
At this moment, Guan Ruolan, who was standing on the balcony, was holding a small bra in her hand. She looked very cute.
"Haha, didn't Xiao Zhuang say that we are a family? From now on, the two of you should interact more. Young people shouldn't have any estrangement. If you get closer, your relationship will naturally improve," Elder Guan said with a smile. The older generation always spoke in a reserved way!
