My Tough Guards

Chapter 317 Two Examples

Novita.

Alice's fiancee at the Mo family's engagement party, a man named Robert, once felt a pulse on her wrist and said that her body was having serious health problems.

As for what his health problem was, the person deliberately hung up his answer and did not say it.

When Robert touched his wrist, Novita's body condition was normal. No complaints at night, very healthy.

Imagine you attend a party, then suddenly meet a presumptuous man who says that there is a serious problem in your body that requires blablabla treatment...

The thinking of normal people, most would have chosen not to believe it, instead, they would be angry: What is it with this person? I'm fine, how could he say I'm sick? You're the one who's sick! The mental!

So, Novita doesn't care much. He even felt it was ridiculous.

As the daughter of the Sun family, certainly not a few men who pursue Novita. Various ways to pursue it are many popping up.

So, Novita considered Robert's words as a way to pursue him.

However, as the main character of the man at the engagement party, it was impossible for him to openly pursue his guests.

Novita assumes that Robert deliberately hung her to tease her again next time.

Novita doesn't like this kind of bastard. He branded Robert as a scoundrel, then continued to take care of the Sun family business.

But after attending the Mo family's engagement party, Novita's body slowly experiences an awkwardness.

These past few days had arduous unexplainable burning on his body, making him suffer.

But how?

The doctor could not find the problem. When he was looking for people to tell him, they did not understand, instead felt annoyed.

Novita was so confused that she wanted to kill herself.

Lucky his sister, Wilbert, came.

Wilbert was also at the Mo family's wedding. He was diagnosed with fatty liver by Robert.

Robert prescribed him the medicine, told him to eat the oats for a month, then he would recover.

Wilbert went straight to the doctor after the party, and rightly, he was diagnosed with fatty liver.

As he handed over the prescription of Robert's medicine to the doctor, the scientist of the famous internal medicine department of Y province revealed a shocked expression.

The doctor checked the prescription many times, then asked Wilbert carefully, who is the expert in the world of traditional medicine who has written this recipe?

The doctor even mentioned that only traditional medicine experts can write this kind of prescription.

And his age must be above 60 years, if he did not have enough experience, he would not be able to write a recipe that made people surprised like that.

Traditional medicine expert?

Wilbert was stunned as well. He told me about Robert as he was.

Upon hearing that the person who wrote the prescription was a young man not up to 30 years old, the doctor was stunned, "How is it possible?"

"Professor Zhang, I didn't lie to you," Wilbert replied with a wry smile.

"It's hard to believe. If I could, I would like to meet this Robert" Professor Zhang said seriously.

Wilbert smiled wryly, "Sorry, Professor Zhang, me and him have also only met once, we are not close enough, it might be difficult to arrange a meeting."

"No problem, I'm also just talking," Professor Zhang waved his hand.

A few seconds later, the Professor again said seriously, "There seems to be only 1 possibility, Wilbert, if I don't guess wrongly, your comrade surnamed Qiu, might master the science of traditional medicine."

"I don't really understand either" Wilbert replied, then asked hesitantly, "Professor Zhang, then my illness..."

"Wilbert, don't you understand yet?"

Professor Zhang laughed, "Take the medicine as prescribed by Mr. Qiu. He said a month would improve, that's right. The recipe is better than me."

Hearing that, Wilbert was surprised. Professor Zhang is a renowned internal medicine doctor in the province of Y. He is one of the most influential traditional medicine experts in the country.

As soon as he remembered that unattractive smile, Wilbert gulped. What was the background of the young man to actually get praise from Professor Zhang?

After returning from the hospital, Wilbert took the drug on time according to Robert's message. He also did not consume alcohol. Luckily his family did not insist when he did not want to drink alcohol.

A month later, Wilbert did another checkup. Miraculously, his fatty liver had completely vanished!

"Really great!" exclaimed Professor Zhang.

Fatty liver is a chronic disease. Even if taking medication, it must be accompanied by exercise. If you are lucky, it may decrease in 3 months, but it cannot disappear completely.

While this drug was prescribed by Robert, only for a month.

"Wilbert, if you meet this Mr. Qiu, please ask him if he sells this recipe. I'm willing to buy it" Professor Zhang said enthusiastically.

This recipe reacted to Wilbert's body, showing that it was useful.

The medical world will take a step forward with this prescription. Professor Zhang was very pleased to see it.

"Buy? Can't it be used directly?" wilbert was confused.

Professor Zhang shook his head, "This recipe is the copyright of Mr. Qiu's knowledge. Although I know the composition, but, I can't use it without his permission, let alone use it in general."

"It's normal that you don't understand. Copyright is hard to explain in brief."

Professor Zhang corrected his reading glasses, "Just like you young people like to read novels, comics. If you get it through the official line, you have to pay, but if it is pirated, it is free.

"Both original and pirated products, the contents are the same, although there are some differences in the arrangement.

"But why would anyone not want to read a pirated book, instead choose to pay to get the original product?

"The reason is simple, these readers respect the copyrights of the authors. They're willing to pay to support their original product, support the author."

That's what Professor Zhang said.

Wilbert said while pondering, "I understand, Prof. If there is a chance to meet Mr. Qiu, I will definitely pass on your message."

After returning home, Wilbert immediately reported the good news to his brother.

Coincidentally, Novita was also suffering from the state of her body. As soon as he heard the experience of his sister, his heart was moved.

After checking Robert's track record and quality and thinking long, Novita decided to come here, try his luck.

When I first saw Robert, Novita immediately knew that his actions were right.

Because Robert's eyes shone with tranquility.

Novita can read people. With just one look, he could be sure that this young man must have a solution.

But at the same time Novita also felt a little angry, because she knew that Robert forgot about her altogether.

If he did not take the initiative to meet Robert, this young man would likely not take the initiative to treat him at any time.

He was angry, but also funny.

Because he is, too, right?

If it wasn't for his brother, he might have forgotten that there was a man named Robert.

"It seemed like that night Robert really found out that I was sick, "inner Novita.

Robert does not know about the details of Novita's psychological journey.

Hearing Novita's question, Robert replied in a very confident tone, "Miss Sun, you don't suffer from hypochondriasis. But the advice the doctor gave you wasn't bullshit either. Your body's condition can't be checked by current medical equipment."

Novita showed a confused expression, he could not bear to ask, "The condition of modern medicine is so good, how could it not detect my disease?"

"I can answer your question. Actually the principle is very simple."

Robert inhaled his cigarette, "Miss Sun, did you know, in my country, smallpox was a deadly disease?"

"I've heard of it," Novita nodded.

Robert continued his words, "In ancient times, once people contracted smallpox, the death rate was very high.

"Although there are also cases of survivors, for example King Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty. He contracted smallpox as a toddler, but it was cured.

"If compared to the death rate, then the percentage of cure for smallpox is very small to be ignored."

Until here, Robert's eyes shone a glimmer of light, "Then, as the times progressed and science and medical advances, smallpox was declared completely lost by WHO. They left only a few specimens for research purposes."

Novita's face was filled with question marks.

"Still not understanding? Then I give you 1 more example," said Robert, "Cancer is a deadly disease in this era, but someone has managed to defeat it.

"We understand a little bit of the principle of cancer. Almost all cancers are caused by genetic replication errors, which cause cells to turn into malignant tumors.

"Oncology has become a popular field of medical science. Any major hospital must have an oncology department, and the doctors on duty there are all super scientists.

"All students who have been educated about tumors can certainly tell about the principles of cancer and how to treat it. Some scientists can even draw conclusions from one case and determine the treatment method that best fits the patient.

"But, going back in time, even Hua Tuo and Li Shizhen (famous doctors of the Han Dynasty era and Ming Dynasty medicine experts) did not know what cancer was.

"In the present day, any student in any medical department can certainly tell about cancer easily, while the god of doctors whose name is famous from ancient times until now, can tell you about cancer easily, there is nothing to deal with cancer.

"Now, any hospital must have a CT scan. With just a few hundred dollars, we can immediately know the state of our bodies. In ancient times, even the greatest doctor gods could not detect cancer.

"Is it because the god doctors aren't great? Nope.

"It was because of a medical condition when it was not possible. Because of the limitations of the times, those doctors had no knowledge of cancer, nor because there was no equipment as sophisticated as now, so they knew nothing about cancer."

So said Robert.

After hearing this, Novita continued to say in a clueless manner, "But what does this have to do with my symptoms?"

"Of course it has something to do with it!"

Robert flicked his finger, "The two examples I described earlier are to make you understand. What is so common today, if placed hundreds of years ago, would have made people unable to understand."

Novita is not stupid. Hearing Robert's words, he slowly showed an expression of understanding.

"Mr Qiu, so you mean.This disease of mine, cannot be detected by current medical knowledge? Just like the absence of a term about cancer hundreds of years ago?" guess Novita.

"Smart!" Robert gave his thumb.
