However, no one dared ask Fang Bai to examine them for fear that their own secrets might also be revealed, which would be far too embarrassing.
A few professors from Yanjing dical University, highly accomplished in the field of traditional Chinese dicine, discussed so dical problems with Fang Bai.
They listened to Professor Fang elaborating on dical principles, speaking eloquently.
Many concepts were new to them, and they felt their horizons broadening, gaining substantial benefit.
They couldn’t help but admire Fang Bai imnsely.
Fang Bai had a profound understanding of the Yin Yang Five Elents theory and a deep knowledge of the body’s ridians, acupoints, as well as the five viscera and six bowels.
He was also proficient in nurous Chinese dical treatnts, including herbal dicine, acupuncture, tuina massage, cupping, and dietary therapy.
To those veteran traditional doctors, he seed to know everything and was proficient in every aspect.
Fang Bai’s extensive knowledge could be described as vast and imnse, making those senior professors feel ashad of their own shortcomings.
They felt that their own dical skills were insignificant compared to Fang Bai’s, like frogs in a well, not worth ntioning.
Principal Yang Wanshan saw those renowned traditional Chinese dicine professors from Huaxia behaving respectfully in front of Fang Bai, constantly asking for his advice with humility, like students before a teacher.
Yang felt secretly elated, thinking that his decision to hire Fang Bai at a high position and salary was exceedingly wise.
Principal Yang seed to foresee a not-so-distant future where Yanjing dical University produced one famous doctor after another, renowned throughout the Huaxia dical community.
And as the principal, he would also leave a significant mark in the history of Huaxia dicine.
That day at noon, Principal Yang Wanshan hosted a banquet for Fang Bai at a hotel, accompanied by Qin Yaorao, two vice-principals, and several veteran professors from the traditional Chinese dicine departnt.
Before inviting Fang Bai, Principal Yang made a token effort to invite Wang Xinglin.
However, Wang resolutely refused to participate and proclaid that he would firmly avoid any event involving Fang Bai in the future, thus taking a definitive stand against him.
Fang Bai had not formally started teaching and had already offended Wang Xinglin, who had the backing of the Yanjing Wang Family.
Everyone, including Principal Yang, was worried for him, but Fang Bai himself was unconcerned, simply laughing it off.
“Principal Jiang, among the traditional Chinese dicine classes you teach, is there a student nad Xiong Yingxiong?”
At the banquet, Fang Bai learned that Vice Principal Jiang Hongsheng was also a professor for two traditional Chinese dicine classes and thus inquired about Xiong Yingxiong’s whereabouts once more.
“Xiong Yingxiong…
Hmm, there is such a student!
Why, does Professor Fang know him?”
Jiang Hongsheng had a vivid mory of the student Xiong Yingxiong, knowing that he ca from a family with a long history in traditional Chinese dicine, having studied with his father from a young age, and possessing a solid foundation in dical knowledge.
If nurtured properly, he could certainly beco a great doctor.
Fang Bai smiled and nodded, saying, “He is a disciple I took on a few days ago.
Principal Yang, Principal Jiang, and esteed professors, please take good care of him in the future!”
Yang Wanshan, Jiang Hongsheng, and the others were surprised to learn that Xiong Yingxiong, a student from their own university, was Fang Bai’s disciple.
They looked at each other, realizing that studying dicine under Fang Bai promised a boundless future.
It seed they would indeed need to pay extra attention to this student called Xiong Yingxiong.
Qin Yaorao had once been Fang Bai’s teacher, and Xiong Yingxiong was now his disciple; with these two connections, Yanjing dical University maintaining Fang Bai on its staff held an innate advantage for the future.
“Xiong Yingxiong is truly fortunate to have been taken as a disciple by Professor Fang!
Rest assured, Professor Fang, we will certainly look after your disciple!”
Yang Wanshan spoke on behalf of everyone.
“Then on behalf of Yingxiong, I thank Principal Yang, Principal Jiang, and all the professors.
Now, let toast you all!”
“Professor Fang, you’re too kind!”
Fang Bai and Yang Wanshan and the others clinked glasses and drained their drinks.
Although older, Yang Wanshan and the others were strong drinkers, especially Yang himself.
Known as “One Catty Yang,” he usually started with at least one catty of liquor and rarely got drunk, which made most people cautious about competing with him in drinking at banquet tables.
However, today Yang Wanshan had clearly t his match.
Fang Bai alone fought against four or five veteran drinkers on their side, never refusing a drink, and in a blink of an eye, he had consud two jugs of Baijiu without showing any sign of intoxication, which left Yang Wanshan and the others clicking their tongues in amazent.
By the end of the banquet, Fang Bai was fine, while Yang Wanshan and the others were all tipsy, eventually being escorted ho one by one by the school’s drivers.
“Fang Bai, is Chinese dicine difficult to learn?”
As she watched the school driver take Yang Wanshan and the rest away, Qin Yaorao suddenly turned her head to ask Fang Bai.
Fang Bai said, “It’s difficult and it’s not difficult!”
Qin Yaorao asked, “What do you an by that?”
Fang Bai explained, “If one has no interest in Chinese dicine and is unwilling to delve into it, then even with guidance from a famous teacher, it will be hard to learn well.
Conversely, if one is very interested in Chinese dicine and willing to study quietly, with the addition of guidance from a famous teacher, then it’s not difficult to learn well.”
Qin Yaorao bit her lip, hesitated, and then with a hint of hopefulness, asked, “Then…
is it too late for soone my age to learn Chinese dicine?”
Fang Bai was taken aback for a mont, then smiled and said, “Too late?
Teacher Qin, you’re not old at all!”
“I told you to stop calling Teacher!
Call by my na from now on!”
Qin Yaorao interrupted Fang Bai, saying with a hint of annoyance.
Fang Bai nodded and said, “All right.
Then I will call you Yaorao from now on!
If I rember correctly, you’re only twenty-four years old this year, aren’t you?
It’s not too late at all to learn Chinese dicine at this age, and with your intelligence, you should learn it better and faster than most people!”
Qin Yaorao was pleased and asked, “Really?
Then you…
Could you teach ?”
Fang Bai replied, “Of course!
But…”
“But what?”
Qin Yaorao was delighted, then imdiately beca anxious.
Fang Bai said seriously, “Chinese dicine is profound and vast.
Ordinary people can only scratch the surface by treating minor ailnts.
If you want to truly grasp the essence of Chinese dicine and treat complicated diseases, you must first engage in Martial Dao…”
“Ah?
Martial…
Martial Dao?”
Qin Yaorao’s mouth fell open, puzzled, “Does being good at Chinese dicine have anything to do with martial arts?”
The Qin Family from Jinling, where Qin Yaorao hailed from, also had a martial arts heritage.
However, Qin Yaorao, who had disliked violence and fighting from a young age, had always resisted martial arts.
Just before, Qin Yaorao heard that Fang Bai had taken Xiong Yingxiong, a student from their dical University specializing in Chinese dicine, as a disciple, which sparked her interest in learning Chinese dicine from Fang Bai.
Not only could she use her dical skills to save lives, but she could also spend more ti with Fang Bai, killing two birds with one stone.
But upon hearing that learning the essence of Chinese dicine also required a foundation in martial arts, Qin Yaorao imdiately felt discouraged.
On one hand, Qin Yaorao disliked martial arts; on the other hand, she knew that martial arts training needed to start from a young age.
Only by building a solid foundation could one achieve notable success in Martial Dao.
However, now in her twenties, even if she wanted to start learning martial arts, she feared it was too late.
