Hearing Zhang Yang's sudden words, the five of them subconsciously wanted to quicken their pace and leave. However, when they saw the crowd of onlookers who were gradually getting agitated, and thought about Zhang Yang who was eyeing them covetously, they could not help but feel scared. After an intense psychological struggle, they finally stood where they were obediently and asked in fear,"Is…is there anything else?”
"Give me the money." Zhang Yang replied.
"Pay…pay?" The five young men were stunned and asked in surprise,"What money?" They couldn't help but guess with bitter faces, Could it be that the brothers could not take the opportunity to extort money? Instead, they had to be blackmailed by this guy who claimed to be a doctor? If that's the case, then we'll lose a lot of face…
"Uncle Wang's meal, the watermelon money from the fruit seller, Uncle Chen's licorice money, and my consultation fee.”Zhang Yang counted with his fingers and told them the story. "Don't worry, we're all trustworthy. We'll pay as much as we can. We definitely won't charge you more. Uncle Wang, the fruit seller, and Uncle Chen, what do you think?”
"That's right, Little Zhang is right." Uncle Wang, the fruit seller, and Uncle Chen nodded in unison. They were no longer afraid of these five young men. They stretched out their hands and said in unison,"Pay up!"
"Pay up!" The onlookers at the entrance of the small restaurant were also very cooperative and shouted in unison.
Seeing that they had offended the public, the expressions of the five young men changed. At this moment, they did not dare to be arrogant anymore. With a sad face, they asked weakly,"How…how much?"
Uncle Wang, the fruit seller, and Uncle Chen didn't stand on ceremony with them. They reported three numbers one after another. They were all honest people. Although they hated these five young men, they did not take this opportunity to extort more from them. Zhang Yang did not stand on ceremony with them and reported the amount of consultation fees that should be charged when he made a house call.
Under the current circumstances, the five young men could only admit defeat and obediently put the money on the dining table. Then, under the enthusiastic cheers of the onlookers, they ran away with their tails between their legs without looking back. Just as they were fleeing in panic, Uncle Wang waved a few bills and shouted at them,"Hey, hey, I still wanted to give you money. Why did you all run away?”
"Uncle Wang, take this extra money as the money they gave you to repair the dining table.”Zhang Yang said with a smile. He leaned over and helped Uncle Wang to lift the table that had been kicked to the ground.
Uncle Wang bent down to pick up the chopsticks that were scattered on the ground. As he picked it up, he did not forget to say gratefully,"Little Zhang, I really have to thank you today. If it weren't for you, not only would I not be able to collect the money for the meal, I would even be extorted by them.”
"That's right, Little Zhang. It's all thanks to you today. Otherwise, we could only hold this grudge in our hearts.”The fruit seller walked over with a watermelon in her arms. She stuffed the watermelon into Zhang Yang's arms without any explanation." Here, I'll give you a watermelon to thank you for your help."”
Zhang Yang quickly declined." We're all neighbors. It's only right for us to help each other. There's no need to thank me, right?" Moreover, I only helped you get back the money for one watermelon. If you give me another watermelon, wouldn't it be equivalent to not getting back the money?”
"This is different." The fruit seller did not care about Zhang Yang's refusal at all. She forcefully stuffed the watermelon into his arms and turned around to leave. She did not give Zhang Yang a chance at all."Money or not, it doesn't matter. The key is this tone! You helped us vent our anger. Let alone a watermelon, I can even give you my cart of watermelons.”
Zhang Yang was shocked when he heard that. He quickly said,""No, please don't. Just one is enough.”
Since the five young men had already run away, the onlookers gathered together and chatted for a while before they dispersed. Zhang Yang had already finished his meal. He hugged the watermelon and asked,""Uncle Wang, how much is it?"
"It's free." Uncle Wang, who was squatting on the ground to pick up his chopsticks, replied without raising his head.
Zhang Yang was stunned.”
Uncle Wang raised his head and replied,"Today, not only did you help me avoid losses, but you also helped me vent my anger. Let me ask you, how can I accept your money?”
Zhang Yang smiled bitterly and shook his head." No, Uncle Wang. You have to take the money today. You have to take enough." If you don't accept it, or accept less, then I won't come here to eat anymore.”
" Sigh, you…" Uncle Wang was stunned at first, then he shook his head and smiled helplessly. He had no choice but to accept Zhang Yang's meal money. However, before Zhang Yang left, he sent Zhang Yang all the way to the entrance of the residential area.
Looking at Uncle Wang's grateful face, Zhang Yang could not help but shake his head and smile bitterly."Uncle Wang, you don't have to send me off. You know that I live in this neighborhood. There's nothing to send me off. Besides, if you leave, won't there be no one to take care of your restaurant? What if they were robbed?"
"Don't worry." Uncle Wang looked back at the direction of the small restaurant. Then, he turned around and said with a smile,"My daughter has already come over to help me. Look, she's the one in the light yellow shirt.”
Zhang Yang raised his head and looked at Uncle Wang's restaurant. Indeed, he saw a woman in a light yellow shirt standing at the entrance of the restaurant. She was looking around anxiously. It was obvious that she was looking for Uncle Wang.
Zhang Yang felt that this woman looked familiar, but he did not take it to heart. He said casually,""Eh, you have a daughter? Why haven't I heard you mention it before? I don't think I've seen it before, right?"
"My daughter is studying at Suqian College. She comes to help me every day after school. When you come to my place for dinner, it's usually around seven or eight in the evening. At this time, she's already at school for her night self-study. Let me tell you, my daughter's academic results are very good. Even if I have to sell everything, I will support her to finish this university. " After I finish university, I'll study for a master's or a PhD…" Uncle Wang's face was full of pride at the mention of his daughter. It was obvious that his daughter was the best in his heart. "Hey, Little Zhang, I remember you once mentioned that you work in Suqian University's hospital, right?”
"Yeah," Zhang Yang nodded.
Uncle Wang smiled and said," That's great. If there's a chance in the future, I'll introduce you to my daughter. Then, you can take care of her in school for me."”
"No problem." Zhang Yang smiled and nodded. Then, he pointed at the direction of the restaurant and said,""You should go back now. Your daughter seems to be quite anxious. I'm afraid she's starting to worry about you when she sees that you're not around.”
Uncle Wang turned around and saw that his daughter was indeed as Zhang Yang had said. She was standing at the entrance of the small restaurant with a face full of anxiety. Therefore, he did not insist on sending Zhang Yang home. He smiled and nodded."Alright, then I'll go back. Little Zhang, thank you very much for this matter.”
"You're welcome. We're all neighbors, so we should help.”Zhang Yang replied with a smile.
"Little Zhang, you're such a good kid," Uncle Wang said with a smile. Sigh, you're still single, right? Uncle Wang will introduce you to someone tomorrow.”
Zhang Yang smiled bitterly and said," No way, Uncle Wang. You don't want to be a chef. You want to be a matchmaker?" Forget it. It's better for you to be an honest chef.”
" You child..." Uncle Wang laughed and shook his head."Alright, I won't talk to you anymore. I'll go over now. Goodbye.”
"Goodbye." Zhang Yang said.
Zhang Yang smiled as he watched Uncle Wang walk towards his daughter. He turned around and walked into the neighborhood. He carried the watermelon and walked towards his rented house. However, at this moment, he suddenly felt a strange change in his body. Zhang Yang did not stop to check the condition of his body even though he felt something was wrong. Because he was at the entrance of the neighborhood. There were people coming and going here. If he stood there, he might attract a crowd. Therefore, he quickened his pace and returned home. After closing the door, he sat cross-legged on the spot with his eyes slightly closed. He silently circulated the Medical Appraisal Heart Sutra and used the inner vision technique to examine the situation in his body.
" Strange, this is really strange…" After the time for one incense stick to burn, Zhang Yang opened his eyes and frowned. He shook his head and sighed.
Just now, when Zhang Yang was using his Inner Vision to examine his body, he was shocked to find that the Vital Energy in his body had increased significantly compared to before.
"What's going on? Why did his primeval essence suddenly increase? " Could it be that he has gone berserk…" Zhang Yang's eyebrows twitched. This was not a joke, especially since his cultivation base was still relatively low. He did not have any pills or magical equipment to protect himself. Once he went berserk, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Zhang Yang quickly activated the Vital Energy in his body and used his [Inner Vision] to examine it carefully. However, this true essence was gentle and pure, and it was in accordance with the laws of nature. There was no sign of Qi deviation at all.
"If it's not Qi deviation, then what could be the reason for the sudden increase in True Qi?”Zhang Yang stood up and slowly walked to the window. He looked at the bright moon outside the window and fell into deep thought.
After a long time, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind."Could it be…because of Uncle Wang and the others 'gratitude?”
The more Zhang Yang thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible.
When a person was grateful to someone from the bottom of their heart, an invisible willpower would be produced. This willpower was the gratitude willpower. It would immediately surge into the body of the person being thanked. If the person being thanked was just an ordinary person, then he would only feel refreshed and comfortable for the past two days. However, if the person being thanked was a self-cultivator, then the vital essence in his body would be enhanced.
Zhang Yang carefully recalled that when he was helping Wang Xiaoqiu, Lin Ziman, Zhao Linyi and the cleaner who had food poisoning, he had also felt grateful Psyche Power flowing into his body. However, because the true essence in his body was still very weak at that time, the feeling was not as obvious as it was now. Therefore, he had inadvertently ignored it. Now, it seemed that he was able to maintain such a fast cultivation speed in this world with thin spiritual energy. Although he relied on the powerful power of the Medical Heart Sutra and the help of the medicine, the gratitude he gained after being kind to others was also indispensable.
After figuring out the crux of the matter, Zhang Yang was relieved. He even smiled and said softly,""Good people will be rewarded. Looks like I have to do more good things like this in the future…"
Zhang Yang was completely relieved. He sat down cross-legged and started to circulate the [Medical Heart Sutra]. He had only just entered the Bone Refinement Realm, so he still needed to spend some time and energy to consolidate it. While consolidating his cultivation, he also began to advance toward the third level of the Medical Heart Sutra's Body Refinement Realm, the Blood Refinement Realm.
Zhang Yang cultivated for the entire night. He only stopped when the first ray of sunlight shone on his body.
Although he had been cultivating for the whole night, Zhang Yang did not look tired at all. Instead, he was still in high spirits. After washing up, Zhang Yang went out and headed to the hospital of Suqian College.
As usual, Lin Ziman arrived shortly after he arrived at Suqian University's hospital. She saw Zhang Yang who had just finished cleaning the clinic and was about to boil some tea. She greeted him with a smile and asked curiously,"Zhang Yang, why did you not come to work yesterday afternoon?”
Zhang Yang made up an excuse and replied,""I'm not feeling well, so I rested at home for the entire afternoon.”
"Is that so? How is your body now?" Lin Ziman asked with concern.
"Not bad, thank you for your concern." Zhang Yang laughed.
Only then did Lin Ziman relax. Then, she reminded him,"You have to be careful today. You didn't come to work yesterday afternoon, and Nipper Hu was very dissatisfied. I saw that his face was as black as Bao Gong's.”
"Thanks for the reminder." Zhang Yang nodded.”
At this moment, Lin Ziman had already opened her consultation room and was about to clean up with a broom. At this moment, she suddenly remembered something and quickly turned around to say,"Oh, right, there's something I almost forgot to tell you.”
"What is it?" Zhang Yang asked.
"Do you still remember the girl we met on Xiaxi Road last Saturday? She was the girl who treated the food poisoning cleaner.”Lin Ziman said with a smile. However, no matter how Zhang Yang looked at her smile, he felt that she was gloating over Zhang Yang's misfortune.
"I remember." Zhang Yang nodded and asked,""What's wrong?"
" She waited outside your clinic for the whole afternoon yesterday," Lin Ziman said." Because you didn't come, she could only leave resentfully." However, according to my estimation, she should come again today.”
"How did she know I was here?”Thinking of this girl who wanted to be his disciple, Zhang Yang felt a headache coming on. He finally understood why Lin Ziman had a weird smile on her face earlier.
"What, you still don't know?" Lin Ziman was shocked.
"Know what?" Zhang Yang asked in confusion.
"Yesterday afternoon, did Miss Wang drive that BMW to pick you up at the school gate?" Lin Ziman asked with a smile.”
"Yeah," Zhang Yang nodded and asked,""So what?"
"Don't you ever go to Suqian College's school forum?”"I don't know who took a photo of the scene at that time and even uploaded all the photos to Suqian College's school forum," Lin Ziman said excitedly. You now have a cool nickname-Charming Brother. Also, you were shooting at the basketball court yesterday morning, right? That scene was also filmed into a short video and posted on the school forum. Now, in this Suqian College, you're considered a well-known figure.”
"People are afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being strong. This is not a good thing for me.”Zhang Yang shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"Hehe, I knew you would say that.”Lin Ziman laughed, her expression saying that she had already guessed what he meant. "Actually, you can rest assured that the photos and videos on the school forum cannot see your face clearly. Other than people like me who are more familiar with you, other people probably wouldn't be able to recognize you even if they saw those photos and videos.”
"Oh? Was that so? That's good." Zhang Yang heaved a sigh of relief.
At this moment, a voice that was so sweet that it was enough to kill someone suddenly sounded in the school hospital."Aiyaya, Teacher Zhang, you're finally here. I didn't run around for nothing today.”
Zhang Yang and Lin Ziman turned their heads and looked towards the source of the voice. They saw the young lady standing in the corridor of the hospital. She was waving her right hand at Zhang Yang excitedly.
"Speak of the devil. Zhang Yang, your luck with women is really good. Miss Wang has just left, and now a little beauty has arrived.”When Lin Ziman said this, her tone was a little sour. However, even she did not notice it, let alone Zhang Yang.
Looking at the girl, Zhang Yang felt a headache coming on. He shook his head and smiled bitterly,""Ziman, don't joke with me like that. I'm not interested in this underage girl at all.”
"I'll be eighteen in a few days. Won't I be an adult then? Besides, how am I small? Isn't this quite big?" The young lady hopped up to Zhang Yang and heard Zhang Yang's words. She immediately puffed her chest out.
Seeing this scene, Lin Ziman could not hold it in anymore and burst out laughing. She quickly covered her mouth with her right hand and said,"You guys continue, I still have something to do.”She ran back to her own clinic as if she was escaping. However, her ears were perked up, trying to eavesdrop on the conversation between Zhang Yang and the girl.
The girl ignored Lin Ziman. She was here to find Zhang Yang, so she just wanted Zhang Yang to stay put.
At this moment, she smiled and said,"Teacher Zhang, I originally thought that you would only come to work at 8:30 and even said that I would come half an hour earlier to help you clean up the clinic. I didn't expect that you would actually come earlier than me. Hey, are you going to boil water and make tea? Leave it to me."
"No need. I'll do it myself.”Zhang Yang quickly rejected.
"Aiya, don't be so polite with me.”The young lady snatched the teacup from Zhang Yang's hands and said,""As a disciple, I should serve my teacher. In the future, Teacher, you don't have to personally take care of the hygiene of the consultation room. Leave it to me.”
Zhang Yang could not help but frown." Wait a minute. I think you're mistaken." I'm not your teacher, and you're not my disciple…"
"There's no mistake, there's no mistake." A sly look flashed in the girl's bright eyes. She smiled proudly and said,"I'm currently doing my internship in the school's hospital, and my instructor is you.”
"Intern? You're a student at Suqian Medical School?”Zhang Yang could not believe it.
"Yeah, I just got into Suqian Medical School this year." Here, if you don't believe me, I still have my student ID.”As she spoke, she took out her student ID card from her bag and handed it to Zhang Yang.
Zhang Yang took a look at the student ID card. It was indeed from Suqian Medical School. However, he was still confused and asked,""Since you're a freshman, you should be teaching in the classroom. Why are you starting a clinical internship?”
The girl said proudly,""Teacher, do you think that with my current level, there's still a need for me to stay in the classroom and take basic theory classes? Don't worry, I didn't come here for an internship. I came here for my internship with the special approval of the medical school. The leaders and teachers in the medical school were quite open-minded. They knew that with my standard, it was a waste of time to stay in the classroom and teach basic theory classes.”
Zhang Yang shook his head with a bitter smile." Even if you want to do an internship, you should go to a tertiary Grade A hospital like Suqian People's Hospital, right?" Why come to our small school hospital and stay here?”
"I've seen many experts and professors in Suqian People's Hospital, but in my opinion, none of them can compare to you. So I specially applied to intern at the school hospital, and I strongly requested to learn from you. Fortunately, the leaders of the medical school and the principal of the school hospital agreed to my request. So, I'm your intern now.”While they were talking, the water in the water dispenser had already boiled. The girl made a cup of tea for Zhang Yang and respectfully placed it on his table. She then pulled a stool over and sat opposite him. She smiled and nodded,"From today onwards, please take care of me.”
Zhang Yang did not stand on ceremony. He picked up the teacup and gently blew on it. He took a sip of the tea and said,""Do you think you can learn from me just because you're my intern?”
"Becoming your intern is not my goal. Becoming your disciple is my goal.”the young girl replied.
Zhang Yang laughed and said," It's not easy to become my disciple. You have to pass my three tests first."”
"Which three tests?" The girl asked curiously.
"Virtue, wisdom, and labor." Zhang Yang counted his fingers and explained," The so-called virtue refers to medical ethics. The disciples I accept must have medical ethics. Those who are greedy for money and only seek profit can forget about becoming my disciple even if they kneel in front of me for the rest of their lives. The so-called wisdom referred to the understanding of medicine. If someone had poor comprehension, even if he was taught excellent medical skills, he would not be able to learn it. Therefore, I will not accept such a disciple. The so-called labor referred to being able to endure hardships and stand hard work, not afraid of being dirty and not afraid of being tired. I can't afford to serve those pampered young masters and young ladies.”He paused for a moment and looked at the girl's expression before continuing,""These are the three tests of morality, intelligence, and labor. Only those who pass these three tests are qualified to become my disciples.”
"So when do we start the test?" the girl asked anxiously.”
Zhang Yang shook his head and smiled,""These three tests are a long process. Because I need to observe your true nature through your daily actions.”
"I have confidence in myself. I will definitely be able to pass your test.”The young lady was full of confidence, as if she had Zhang Yang in the bag.
Zhang Yang only smiled calmly.
Seeing that there was still some time before work, and there were no patients coming to see him, the young lady who was sitting opposite Zhang Yang started to chat with him. However, this so-called chit-chat was basically the girl asking questions and Zhang Yang answering them. The young lady was very sensible. She knew that Zhang Yang would not answer her medical questions, so she was more interested in asking Zhang Yang some personal questions. For example, what Zhang Zhangyang liked to eat, what his hobbies were, whether he had a girlfriend, what he usually did after work, and so on…
It seemed that the young girl had also read Sun Tzu's Art of War and understood the principle of 'knowing yourself and your enemy is the only way to win a hundred battle'. She wanted to investigate Zhang Yang's likes and dislikes first, and then she would be able to gain Zhang Yang's favor so that she could become his disciple as soon as possible.
"At such a young age, she actually has a heart of seven orifices. Regardless of whether she can become my disciple or not, her future achievements should not be too low.”Zhang Yang could not help but laugh, shaking his head and sighing.
Through the conversation, Zhang Yang had learned the name of the girl-Su Xiaomei.
"Xiaomei, little sister…your name is easy to remember. I might as well call you little sister from now on.”
"Okay, just call me Little Sister. That's what my family calls me.”Su Xiaomei nodded without any hesitation.
After a while, Qiang Hu finally appeared in the school hospital. First, he asked Zhang Yang why he was late, reprimanded him, and warned him not to skip classes easily in the future. Then, he reminded him to take good care of Su Xiaomei. After all, this was the first medical intern in the history of the hospital on campus.
After talking a lot of nonsense, Qiang Hu returned to the office with his big belly and yawned to play the game of stealing vegetables. After that, Su Xiaomei also received a brand new set of white coat. She changed into it and sat opposite Zhang Yang, officially becoming his intern.
In the next few days, Su Xiaomei would come earlier than Zhang Yang to clean the clinic and make tea for him. Zhang Yang did not need to write the prescription himself. He would be the one to recite the prescription and Su Xiaomei would write it. Although the patients who came to see the doctor these days were all patients with a cold or fever, Su Xiaomei's attitude was very good. She was so good that even the picky Zhang Yang could not find any fault with her.
On the third day of Su Xiaomei's internship, a big event happened in Suqian College…
