Wang Yao stopped and turned to look through the window into the room. Jia Zizai was standing there looking at them.

Wang Yao raised his hand and pushed the void through the open window. Jia Zizai took a half step back.

“Was that supernatural?” He was shocked.

The moment the doctor raised his hand, Jia Zizai felt heat flowing into his abdomen. It was hot and comfortable. The instant his body subconsciously retreated, the feeling of powerlessness returned. This time, he was sweating.

He was scared. In the beginning, the void had been within a range he could accept and understand. Now, it happened from nearly 12 feet away, which was completely beyond his imagination.

Through his many years working for the company, he had seen a lot, including savage men and kung fu masters. This was the first time he had witnessed such a thing. It made him afraid. He wondered, Isn’t such a person a land god? This is too exciting!

Jia Zizai now wanted to have Wang Yao as his teacher. Who wouldn’t want to learn from such an amazing master?

“OK, let’s go,” Wang Yao said.

He and Zhong Liuchuan turned and left. Jia Zizai was left alone in the house shocked and powerless. He knelt on the ground, but it was not for worship. He suddenly lost the strength in his legs.

Once the two men were outside of the house Zhong Liuchuan asked, “Master, what do you call that move?”

“What move?” Wang Yao asked.

“You just pushed your hand in the air and he stepped back,” Zhong Liuchuan said.

“Ah, that is break the empty punch in boxing,” Wang Yao replied.

In the air, he used the punch technique from the Zhou family ancient boxing scripture. The base for his control was his breathing and absolute understanding of acupoints.

“Breaking the empty punch?” Zhong Liuchuan had never heard of that before.

“You are not good enough to learn it yet,” Wang Yao said. “This boxing method can’t be practiced until you have progressed.”

The move required using neixi to mobilize and exert power. Zhong Liuchuan was just beginning to generate his Qi, which was still weak.

Zhong Liuchuan knew his current level of kung fu. He was also a contented person. Although he knew it would be good to learn and use the method, he understood that learning that deeper level of boxing would have to wait.

“Would you like to stay here for lunch?” he asked.

“No, thanks,” Wang Yao replied. “I need to get back.”

He had made arrangements to visit Su Xiaoxue, so he needed to prepare for his trip.

“Actually, I have to go to Jing this week,” Wang Yao said. “I would like you to take care of the village while I’m away.”

“OK, Sir, no worries,” Zhong Liuchuan said.

Wang Yao suddenly stopped and looked up at the sky. “The weather is going to turn cold.”

…

In a hotel in Lianshan County, the air conditioning was cold. It made the room very comfortable.

A man was lying in bed. His face was a little white. The taste in his mouth made him feel sick.

He heaved a big sigh. He did not want to do anything. Plus, his body was too lazy to move.

The sun gradually set, making way for the moon to rise. The man got up and drank some medicine. He ate a little food and returned to the bed.

His brows suddenly wrinkled as he thought, Not again! He got up and went straight to the bathroom. He had been having diarrhea seven or eight times a day. Each time he went to the bathroom, dead worms with white spots would be in the toilet. He was disgusted whenever he thought about how those things had been in his stomach.

More than once, he had imagined a terrible fate for himself. If I wait any longer, these things may eat my internal organs, bite my stomach, and drill out from it. He was very afraid.

He didn’t want to think about it. Sometimes, the more one didn’t want to think about it, the more it would appear in one’s mind.

When he thought of the man, there was panic in his eyes. These damn bugs! Those damn people!

He knew the matter had to be related to those people. His illness also made him very aware of how terrifying they could be. He thought, Forget it, the worst situation is that I stop planting herbs and give the mountain to them. I have made enough money these years. I could go back and talk to the Guo County magistrate, but what regrets would that create?

He had poured all his attention to the mountain through 20 years of hard work. That being said, he knew that being healthy was more important than anything else.

…

In Lianshan People’s Hospital, a man came into the emergency department.

Looking at his red, swollen eyes, the doctor who was seeing him asked, “When were your eyes hurt?”

The patient thought about it. He decided to conceal the actual number of days and replied, “Well, it’s been about 10 days.”

“This has deteriorated a lot,” the doctor said. “You may lose your injured eye.”

“What?” The man couldn’t believe it.

“Let’s put it this way, you should be hospitalized for a few days,” the doctor said.

“Oh, OK.” The man was afraid, so he chose to stay in the hospital.

As he was doing the paperwork. He saw a doctor wearing a white coat. A nurse greeted the doctor, “Hello, Director Pan.”

“Hello, are you on duty?” Pan Jun asked.

“Yes,” the nurse replied.

Director Pan? The man doing paperwork glanced at him. He pointed at the man as he asked the nurse, “Who is that?”

“That is Director Pan, he is the head of the emergency department,” the nurse replied. “Is something the matter?”

The man was stunned. He had seen Director Pan in the mountain village clinic. At that time, he did not believe it when he was told he was a director of the emergency department in the county hospital. After all, most people would have their doubts. Who would believe that a doctor from a county hospital would have a young country doctor as a teacher?

A realization quickly dawned on him. He can cure my eyes! He decided not to check into the hospital. Instead, he rode his motorcycle to the mountain village.

“Well, you have come back!” Wang Yao smiled at the sweaty man in front of him.

Although the man wore sunglasses, he could tell that his eye disease had become more serious.

The man anxiously said, “Doctor, I am willing to buy the medicine.”

“Why did you suddenly change your mind?” Wang Yao asked.

“I went to the county hospital and saw Director Pan,” the man honestly said. “I am sorry. I should not have doubted you.”

“Oh, that is quite normal,” Wang Yao said.

In the end, the man spent $1,000 for a bottle of medicine. Wang Yao dropped a few drops into his eyes.

“Use this medicine three times a day,” he said. “Don’t stay up late, and take good care of your eyes.”

“Oh, I will,” the man said.

“Is there a lot of dust at your workplace?” Wang Yao asked.

“Yes, I work in a flour mill,” the man said.

“Try to avoid coming into contact with dust,” Wang Yao said. “You may want to wait to go back to work until the disease is gone.”

The man expressed his gratitude and left with the bottle of medicine.

The medicine was very simple. Wang Yao had dissolved a bit of intermittent paste in ancient spring water. As for the efficacy, it was quite effective.

When the man came out of the clinic, his eyes felt cool. They were no longer hot and painful. It was as if they had been cleaned with cold water. He thought, I would have bought this medicine last time if I had known. My eyes wouldn’t have been hurting these past few days.

The pain in his eyes was so excruciating that the man couldn’t even sleep at night. His wife and children kept urging him to get help. He knew that if he went blind, he would be in real trouble. After going to the hospital, he had not expected the consequences to be so serious.

Inside the clinic, Wang Yao called Su Xiaoxue.

“What are you doing?” she asked.

“I just saw a patient,” Wang Yao replied.

“What was the disease?” Su Xiaoxue asked.

“It was an eye disease,” Wang Yao said.

“When are you coming to the capital?” she asked.

“I have to wait two more days,” Wang Yao said. “I have a patient who needs to come back for treatment.”
