Zhou Xixian and Ye Bo were astounded by their inability to grasp the full scope of the book’s contents despite their vast knowledge in the field. They dedicated themselves to studying it relentlessly, yet their understanding remained stagnant.
The book appeared to have been written during the Eastern Han Dynasty, which made it all the more perplexing.
“Oh my god, I’m going crazy.” In a moment of frustration, Zhou Xixian let out a groan and hit himself on the head.
“The research value of this book is really too great.” Ye Bo, on the other hand, was more composed and expressed his amazement at the research value of the book.
“If it is really a book from the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, then the history of Chinese medical development will be messed up.” Lu Qinming maybe even more thrilled than the two elders if the book truly dates back to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, as it could potentially disrupt the entire history of Chinese medical development.
The medical concepts presented in the book are so groundbreaking that some treatments appear to be highly sound in theory, while others remain perplexing.
The effectiveness of these methods is also a matter of question, leaving Lu Qinming to ponder if they hold any significant medical value beyond the ordinary.
“Is it possible that the Eastern Han Dynasty possessed exceptional medical skills that were lost over time, and only fragments of ancient medicine have survived?” Su Jing pondered aloud.
“I doubt that’s the case,” replied one of the elders. “This fragment is severely damaged, indicating that the overall medical skills of the Eastern Han Dynasty may have been lacking. However, there might have been an exceptional doctor whose skills were remarkably advanced but weren’t passed down for various reasons.”
“Regardless, this book is an incredibly precious treasure,” added the other elder.
Observing their excitement, Su Jing secretly wiped his brow. He began to feel that he may have gone too far by presenting the statue of Atlantis, the 5,800-year-old corpse, and now, the Medical classics from the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty.
He was afraid that he was tampering with ancient history, but he realized that there were no adverse effects, so everything should be alright.
…
Zhou Xixian remarked, “Mr. Su, this book is incredibly valuable.”
Ye Bo chimed in, “Indeed, it’s not something to be tossed into your bag without thought.”
Silence fell upon the group. How could such a precious ancient book be treated so nonchalantly? It was so fragile that it could crumble at any moment.
As the owner of the museum and a collector of numerous treasures, shouldn’t Su Jing have a better sense of how to protect them?
Su Jing responded, “Don’t worry, I’ll handle it with care.”
“…” The others remained speechless. Was placing the book in a bag really a careful act?
As it turned out, there was a reason why Su Jing had been so casual with the book.
Firstly, he knew it wasn’t actually an ancient book and he can make another one as easily as one could, so he didn’t treat it as delicately as one.
Secondly, he had Little White Mouse, which could easily repair any damages if needed.
“Mr. Su, the information inside is incredibly valuable for research. May I take a photo of it?” Lu Qinming inquired.
While Ye Bo and Zhou Xixian were focused on the book itself, Lu Qinming was more interested in the content. If he could photograph it, he wouldn’t feel as bad if the book was damaged.
“I’m afraid that’s not possible just yet. I haven’t decided whether to make it public or not. However, I’ve already taken photographs of it myself, so the content won’t be lost. And don’t forget, you lost our bet. You’ll have to teach me about medicine, and we can slowly study the content during our lessons,” Su Jing replied.
“Alright, but you’re not a medical major. Starting from the beginning might not be easy,” Lu Qinming conceded. He was willing to admit defeat, but he was also aware of the difficulties in teaching a student from scratch.
He realized that he had fallen into Su Jing’s trap and chastised himself for being too confident and impulsive.
“Although I’m not a medical major, I learned a long time ago, so I don’t need to start from scratch. I’m still good with theoretical knowledge, but I have zero practical experience,” Su Jing replied.
“Alright, I’ll test you,” Lu Qinming said, skeptical of Su Jing’s abilities in medicine given his many diverse interests such as animal taming, ancient zither, painting, martial arts, cooking, and other aspects.
Even one of them would take someone years to master and Su Jing has several such interests so how could he have the time to really know anything about medicine?
Lu Qinming proceeded to ask Su Jing a series of medical questions. To Lu Qinming’s surprise, Su Jing was able to answer every question with ease, demonstrating a level of theoretical knowledge that was no less than that of a medical undergraduate student.
The more Lu Qinming asked, the more astonished he became. Su Jing’s level of theoretical knowledge was no less than that of a medical undergraduate. If he knew that Su Jing had only studied medicine for two or three days, he didn’t know what he would think.
Lu Qinming also gave a lesson on the aspects of medicine that Su Jing needed help understanding. What shocked him, even more, was that Su Jing learned very quickly and seemed to understand and memorize everything after only one explanation.
Lu Qinming tried to explain some complicated issues, but in the end, he only had to explain them once, and Su Jing still remembered everything clearly.
“Mr. Su, you are simply a genius,” Lu Qinming exclaimed in awe. He had taught many students, including some who were considered geniuses. However, Su Jing’s ability to learn and retain information was unlike anything he had seen before.
Lu Qinming finally understood why Su Jing excelled in all areas of life. This kind of genius could become even more exceptional than ordinary people after a short period of study.
As Su Jing demonstrated his impressive knowledge of medicine, Ye Bo and Zhou Xixian couldn’t help but be amazed, despite not understanding the subject matter themselves. They were convinced that Su Jing must have a master’s degree in medicine.
