However, as soon as he said this, Qiu Xin, who was standing next to Zhao Gonghong, snorted unhappily and said, “Director Zhao, please be polite. You really think you can cure disease that even our imperial physicians can’t cure, humph!”
This associate Director Qiu Xin, who was fat and had a big black mole on the corners of his mouth, seemed to be not very satisfied with himself. When Zachary was outside just now, it was also him who snorted.
Dissatisfied with him, Zachary naturally wouldn’t be kind to him. Without looking at him, he sat on the soft sofa and didn’t respond.
Upon seeing this, Qiu Xin’s face became even more terrible. He said unhappily, “Is there any courtesy among the younger generation nowadays? Do you know how to respect your teacher and respect him? You are ill-bred!”
This time, Zachary couldn’t help but look at Qiu Xin. He didn’t avoid her eyes and said coldly, “If Director Qiu is talking about me, I’m sorry, but I don’t accept such an evaluation.”
Instantly, all the people in the room were in an uproar, and their eyes were focused on Zachary. They didn’t expect that this young man, who came in from outside, dared to confront Director Qiu.
Qiu Xin’s eyes cooled down. He looked at Zachary and shouted, “You have a bad temper just because of a few words from you. Young people nowadays can’t accept criticism in this way?”
Zachary gave a tit for tat and said, “If what you said is reasonable and your criticism is correct, I, Zachary, will naturally accept it. But I will never introduce myself to blame or insult for no reason at all.”
“You…” Qiu Xin, as the vice president of the Imperial Hospital, was one of the famous doctors with authority. When had she ever been contradicted like this? Her face suddenly turned red with anger. She slapped on the armrest of the sofa, glared at Zachary and said, “As an elder, I can’t criticize you!”
“It’s right and wrong to criticize, not the elder and the younger. Otherwise, if the tortoises live like this, wouldn’t it be possible to criticize everyone?” Zachary said impolitely.
As soon as he said this, Qiu Xin and the other disciples and doctors behind him suddenly burst into anger and shouted.
“How dare you! How dare you scold Director Qiu?”
“Come on, throw this guy out!”
“You have no respect for your elders, and you’re so bold.”
…
At this moment, Huo Lei was also shocked and broke out in a cold sweat. He quickly pulled Zachary’s sleeve and winked at him, saying in a low voice, “Zachary, hold on, hold on!”
Zachary was not a person who could be bullied. He looked at the people who looked at him angrily and said, “I didn’t swear. I just followed what Dean Qiu said and made an example. Don’t label me up.”
“You…” Qiu Xin was so angry that her eyes almost popped out. Her fingers, which were pointing at Zachary, began to tremble.
Upon seeing this, Zhao Gonghong quickly stood up and tried to smooth things over. He said, “Alright, alright, let’s stop arguing over these things. We’ll get Chief Huo to invite Zachary here to see if he’s sick. He’s not here to preside over the competition.”
Hearing vice president Zhao’s words, many people behind him immediately shut up. However, some people still snorted in low voices.
“A little boy, what kind of ability can he have?”
“That’s right. This is a stubborn disease that even Executive Zhao and Executive Qiu can’t cure. Will he be cured?”
…
Zachary didn’t listen to these words. He looked at Zhao Gonghong and said, “Executive Zhao, who do you want me to come to treat?”
Zhao Gonghong smiled and said, “No hurry. Before we confirm that you can go out, that person’s identity can’t be revealed.”
“How do you know?” Zachary asked.
Zhao Gonghong said, “It’s decided by us old guys. This is also the reason why we are sitting here.”
Speaking of this, Zachary understood that these people were here to test him. They passed their tests and were recognized by their standards. They were qualified to go in and treat the big shot.
But she didn’t know that Qiu Xin, who had never seen Zachary before, didn’t treat him well as soon as he came in.
“Executive Zhao, there is absolutely no problem with Dr. Ching’s medical skills. The examination can start.” Huo Lei said.
Zhao Gonghong nodded, then looked at Zachary and said, “Zachary, you are a doctor of traditional Chinese medicine. Dean Qiu and I are also doctors of traditional Chinese medicine. Wait a minute, we have questions that require your answer and cooperation. Do you understand?”
“Yes! I understand!” Zachary nodded and said.
Zhao Gonghong said, “Then let’s begin.”
“First of all, let me ask you a question, okay? If you can’t even answer my question, then you don’t have to answer my master’s question. You don’t deserve to answer it!” A middle-aged man in his forties came out from behind Qiu Xin. He looked at Zachary with quite unkind eyes and said.
Zachary did not give way and said loudly, “Please!”
The middle-aged man opened his mouth and said, “Listen carefully, my problem is… to tell me the common 63 kinds of spicy herbs, and also to tell me when different kinds of herbs are used at different times.”
As soon as the question was said, many disciples behind Qiu Xin immediately held up their arms and looked like they were waiting to see a good show.
At first glance, this kind of question seemed to be a test of memory. Fang Qiu just needed to recite sixty-three kinds of herbs. But in fact, in the treatment process, many traditional Chinese medicine doctors didn’t need so many kinds of warm antidote herbs, usually only three or five.
Therefore, even though he had recited these 63 kinds of herbs as his homework during the class, he would forget most of them after he used them for a period of time. He would only remember a few of the most common medicines. In addition, this question required him to tell each of the corresponding environments, which was more than several times more difficult.
Zachary’s face changed slightly. He recalled for a while and smiled. As they were watching the show, he said loudly, “The 63 most common medicinal materials are Lianqiao, Xuan ginseng, Calculus Bovis, Vanessa… antelope’s horn, Zihua Diding and Baihua Snake’s tongue.”
In one breath, he spoke out the sixty-three types of medicinal ingredients in an incomparably fluent manner. Immediately, the gazes of those who had originally planned to watch the show also became somewhat astonished.
Qiu Xin frowned slightly at this moment. Seeing this, the middle-aged man who came up with the question said, “He just carried out the medicine, and there is still the last part. Please continue to answer!”
Zachary didn’t stop and immediately replied, “In the process that Lian Ming uses it…”
Still in one breath, he answered all the questions without any pause.
This time, the middle-aged man’s face darkened and he didn’t say anything. Even Qiu Xin looked slightly surprised at this moment.
Seeing that they did not answer him, Zachary said in a loud voice, “May I know if my answer is right? Have you passed this question?”
Upon seeing this, the middle aged man’s expression darkened, revealing an unhappy expression. However, he did not say anything.
The atmosphere was a little weird. At this moment, Zhao Gonghong smiled and said, “Little Dr. Ching’s answer just now was very accurate, and it was very smooth. One look showed that he had put in a lot of effort. It’s rare!” Zhao Gonghong’s words finally confirmed that Zachary’s answer was correct.
Later, Zhao Gonghong looked at Zachary and said with a smile, “Next, there is the second question. It’s up to me to ask.”
Zachary moved his body and concentrated as he looked at Zhao Gonghong.
“My question is, what aspects should I pay attention to when putting Taowu and Baishu together?” Zhao Gonghong asked.
This question seemed to be very common, and it was almost the same as what the teacher asked in the college class. Zachary almost did not have to think about it, and the answer came to his mind.
But on second thought, it was one of the four famous doctors, Director Zhao, who personally asked questions, which should not be so simple.
Therefore, Zachary pondered more carefully. He kept considering the efficacy and properties of Suan Ni and Baifu, thinking whether there were any characteristics among them that he hadn’t noticed.
However, after thinking about it for about three minutes, Zachary still could not think of anything else. For a moment, he could not help but feel a little confused.
He looked up. Zhao Gonghong was still smiling gently, and Qiu Xin was still in a bad mood. Many disciples behind looked at Qin Zihuan as if they were waiting for him to make a fool of himself.
Seeing this, Zachary’s heart was suddenly shocked. He seemed to have thought of something. Then, the corner of his mouth revealed a confident smile and he looked at Zhao Gonghong.
“Zachary, have you come up with an answer?” Zhao Gonghong looked at him with a smile.
“Okay!” Zachary nodded.
“Then tell me about it!” Zhao Gonghong laughed. “My question is not that simple!”
If Zachary had said that, he would have been shocked again and thought about whether he had agreed correctly. But now that he had figured out the key points, he was even more certain about his answer.
Therefore, he looked at Zhao Gonghong with confidence and said loudly, “When the Lion and the White Spell work together, the main aspects should be focused on the three major aspects. The first is…”
Zachary answered all the questions in a clear and clear way. The answer was also very simple, which was the common content that was explained in the class, and there was nothing special about it.
“Are you sure?” In the end, Zhao Gonghong frowned slightly and said to Zachary, as if he was not satisfied.
Zachary nodded confidently and said, “I’m sure, this is all the answers to the second question.”
Hearing that, the wrinkles on Zhao Gonghong’s face instantly turned into a smile. He clapped his hands and said, “Good, not bad. You’ve passed this obstacle! Tell me about it, what are you thinking?”
At this moment, Zachary also smiled and said to Zhao Gonghong, “When I first heard about the second question, I was a little nervous. After all, you are one of the four famous doctors. So after listening to the question, I instinctively thought that the question was not so simple. It must have hidden profound meaning, or it was something I didn’t notice. So I thought about it carefully and wanted to find out these questions.”
Zhao Gonghong nodded and said with a smile, “Indeed, this is what most people would have thought at this moment.” With that said, Zhao Gonghong glanced at the disciple behind him. Clearly, they had been asked this question by Zhao Gonghong.
Zachary continued to say, “However, I thought about it for a few minutes and took all sides into consideration. I didn’t find anything special, so I was a little suspicious at that time.”
“Tell me your doubts?” Zhao Gonghong said with a smile.
