Chapter 7: Already Able to Cultivate (For the Alliance Leader, Absolute Love’s Madness)
Lan Xiaobu looked at Ji Zheng with confusion. Lancomycin was currently all the rage, nearly at its peak. Was it because he mentioned some issues with Lancomycin that the other party was so angry? It didn’t seem like it, and even if he said so, there was no need for the other party to be upset.
“Hello, here is my resume…” A tall, thin man wearing glasses walked over, handing his resume to Ji Zheng as he saw Lan Xiaobu had made way.
Ji Zheng took the resume but looked at Lan Xiaobu and said, “Doctor Lan, I can’t leave right now. Once the job fair is over, can we talk?”
Lan Xiaobu hesitated a bit. The job fair lasted a whole day, and his time was precious. Even if he couldn’t find a job, he couldn’t just wait here for a day.
Seeing Lan Xiaobu hesitate, Ji Zheng hurriedly said, “I’m Ji Zheng from the Emergency Department. If you trust me, come find me tonight. If you haven’t found a job, we can talk again. If it’s suitable, I can offer you an internship position that isn’t part of the official quota.”
Ji Zheng knew very well that Lan Xiaobu hadn’t even graduated from university, and finding a job in a hospital would be nearly impossible.
Upon hearing this, Lan Xiaobu immediately replied, “Alright, I’ll go find you at Kunhu Hospital tonight.”
Lan Xiaobu understood that finding a suitable job would be difficult, and unless it was a labor-intensive job, other positions wouldn’t be easy to come by. So, since Ji Zheng was willing to offer him an internship, he naturally agreed.
As Lan Xiaobu had anticipated, after going around the job fair, he didn’t find a suitable job. Thinking of Ji Zheng’s words, he simply gave up on continuing his search and returned to his residence.
The techniques he had downloaded were mostly similar, so Lan Xiaobu searched for dozens of various techniques and let the computer continue downloading while he studied the Muscle-Tendon Altering Sutra.
The Muscle-Tendon Altering Sutra had a total of twelve forms, and many people practiced it, but he had never heard of anyone being able to cultivate Inner Qi from it. With nothing else to do, Lan Xiaobu assumed the first position, spreading his hands forward and bringing them together at the point of his chest, pausing at the outer point of the Xuanji acupoint…
According to Lan Xiaobu’s thoughts, he would first familiarize himself with the cultivation method, and when the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi manifested, it would save him a lot of time.
What astonished Lan Xiaobu was that after he had just guided the Qi in a circle and was preparing to breathe, a gentle breath rose from his lower dantian.
This is…
Lan Xiaobu instinctively opened his eyes and immediately felt the subtle differences in the world around him. His mind was extraordinarily clear, and it seemed like there was a powerful force in his dantian that allowed him to unleash it. Lan Xiaobu raised his hand and threw a punch. The punch roared through the air, and a piece of paper not far from him was lifted by the punch’s wind.
Is this Inner Qi?
Soon, Lan Xiaobu confirmed that he had just cultivated Inner Qi. Just a slight attempt, and he had cultivated Inner Qi? How monstrous must his talent be?
Quickly, Lan Xiaobu realized that the Muscle-Tendon Altering Sutra could indeed be cultivated now, and there was no need to wait a year.
This indicated that the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi had already been activated, and he should be the first to discover it. Hu Prefecture was the closest city to Kunlun Mountain, and it was possible that the proximity to Kunlun Mountain allowed the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi to arrive earlier. But…
Lan Xiaobu recalled his previous life; it was said that a year later, it was announced that Earth had Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi that could be cultivated. What was going on?
Such things would definitely not change in the slightest due to his rebirth. The only possibility was that someone in his previous life had already known that the Spiritual Qi between Heaven and Earth was beginning to increase and could even be cultivated. However, those who received this news had deliberately concealed it, not allowing others to know until the news could no longer be hidden.
Regardless, this was a tremendous opportunity for Lan Xiaobu. He needed to enter Kunlun Mountain before Shang Wei, preferably before most people became aware of the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, and then unknowingly take away the flying saucer.
To enter Kunlun Mountain in advance, he naturally needed a certain level of strength; going in with his current strength would be akin to seeking death.
Lan Xiaobu sighed, casting aside all thoughts, and focused on cultivating the Muscle-Tendon Altering Sutra. After just a few breaths, he once again immersed himself in cultivation. As he circulated the Muscle-Tendon Altering Sutra, the Qi within his body continued to grow stronger in a cycle.
…
Ji Zheng was absent-minded all day. After waiting for the recruitment to end, he hurried back to the hospital, waiting for Lan Xiaobu. Ever since Lan Xiaobu mentioned that Lancomycin was not perfect and suggested he not use it for treatment, Ji Zheng had been thinking about discussing this matter with him. Since the issue with Lancomycin arose, only Lan Xiaobu had similar thoughts to his.
Upon returning to the hospital, Ji Zheng didn’t even go to eat dinner and waited for Lan Xiaobu in the Emergency Department. To Ji Zheng’s disappointment, he waited until nearly eight o’clock in the evening and still hadn’t seen Lan Xiaobu.
This made Ji Zheng regret not having obtained Lan Xiaobu’s contact information; he should have at least gotten it.
“Wait, who are you looking for? This is an office area; the consultation is on the other side…” Just as Ji Zheng was anxious, he heard Nurse Xiao Fu’s voice from outside.
Ji Zheng rushed out, and when he saw Lan Xiaobu standing in the corridor, he immediately let out a long sigh of relief. “You finally made it; come in quickly.”
Ji Zheng hurriedly said.
Lan Xiaobu smiled apologetically and said, “Sorry, I’m a bit late.”
He had been so engrossed in cultivating the Muscle-Tendon Altering Sutra that he didn’t wake up until after seven o’clock due to hunger. He quickly ate a little something before coming to see Ji Zheng.
Ji Zheng didn’t care whether Lan Xiaobu arrived early or late. As soon as they entered the room, Ji Zheng eagerly asked, “Lan Xiaobu, you’re from Haiyang Medical University. Previously, you mentioned that Lancomycin is not perfect. Is it based on the research of a senior from Haiyang Medical University?”
Even if Lan Xiaobu was from Haiyang Medical University, Ji Zheng didn’t believe Lan Xiaobu had the ability to research Lancomycin. The most likely scenario was that a professor from Haiyang Medical University had discovered the issues with Lancomycin and mentioned it in class. As long as he could keep Lan Xiaobu here for an internship, he would eventually have the chance to meet the professor who found the problems with Lancomycin.
Lan Xiaobu sat down and smiled, saying, “No, it’s just my own research results. I used the school’s laboratory and numerous patient case data who had used Lancomycin to arrive at this conclusion. Although Lancomycin can inhibit nearly twenty types of cancer cells, it has a fatal flaw: patients injected with Lancomycin will harbor a brand new harmful cell in their bodies. This new cell is not a cancer cell, but it can severely harm the liver and spleen of the patients, and it is almost incurable.”
“Indeed, it harms the spleen…” Ji Zheng’s hands trembled as he seemed to mutter to himself, even forgetting to ask how a fourth-year student could research such a top-tier result.
Lan Xiaobu didn’t disturb Ji Zheng, who clearly was someone very devoted to academic research. Lan Xiaobu guessed that he must have offended a superior to end up in the Emergency Department; this was not something he hadn’t experienced before.
After a long while, Ji Zheng finally regained his composure and looked at Lan Xiaobu. “You’re only in your fourth year; how could you research such an issue? And since it’s a fatal flaw, why do patients who have used Lancomycin recover so well?”
Lan Xiaobu smiled slightly, “Although I’m in my fourth year, I’ve actually already completed all the courses I need to study. I believe my medical skills are not inferior to most doctors. Of course, you may not believe this, but it doesn’t matter as long as you can offer me an internship. As for why patients who have used Lancomycin are recovering well now, it’s because the growth cycle of this harmful cell is five to seven years. After a patient receives the first injection of Lancomycin, they may face the threat of death within five to seven years.”
Ji Zheng sighed and slowly said, “Lan Xiaobu, I believe your research because my research is quite similar to yours. However, my research is more speculative, and I haven’t discovered the complete harmful cell, nor have I found that this cell also harms the liver. If your research and speculation are correct, then next year will be the time when Lancomycin has a problem.”
Lan Xiaobu nodded, “That’s right, next year there will indeed be a major issue. Director Ji, can I stay here to work?”
It was certain that Lancomycin would have problems, but compared to nuclear war, the issue with Lancomycin was nothing in Lan Xiaobu’s eyes.
Ji Zheng nodded, “You can stay here for an internship, with a salary of three thousand…”
Lan Xiaobu frowned; three thousand was not enough for him to live on.
Before Lan Xiaobu could voice his thoughts, Ji Zheng continued, “In addition to the salary, there’s also a bonus, which can vary. All together, it should be around ten thousand a month. However, I must tell you that your internship does not have a chance for a permanent position. Second, you need to assist me in researching Lancomycin, and third, you should not treat patients; the gap between theory and practice is very large.”
In fact, Ji Zheng’s main purpose in keeping Lan Xiaobu was solely to assist him in researching the problems with Lancomycin. As for the promised ten thousand salary, he intended to pay it out of his own pocket.
“Deal.” Lan Xiaobu clapped his hands and said.
His main goal was not to secure a permanent position but to survive.
