Medical Master
chapter-1115

As Fang Qiu was already in Africo, he arrived in Kairo, Egyptt when those 1,000 physicians were still resting on the plane.

He didn’t stay in the urban area of Kairo.

Instead, he rented a cab and headed to the primitive tribe as soon as he got off the plane.

When he arrived at the primitive tribe again, he was shocked by how it had changed.

He found that those cave-like houses which were built with stones were still there, but there were bricks, steel bars, cement, and other building materials on the ground around the houses, indicating that new houses were going to be built there.

In the distance, Fang Qiu saw that the men of the tribe were all wearing pants now. Perhaps because they were used to being naked all year round, they didn’t wear any shirts. The women were wearing dresses. It seemed that the mental state of everyone in the tribe had completely changed.

Besides, Fang Qiu also saw some utility poles there. Some people were fixing electric wires on them.

Fang Qiu even saw some modern electrical appliances in those stone houses, such as radios.

This surprised Fang Qiu.

He had thought that those people were used to their primitive lifestyles and that it would be hard for them to accept and adapt to the new lifestyles.

But to his surprise, in just a few days, everything here had begun to evolve toward modernization.

The people there, of course, noticed Fang Qiu’s arrival. They all stopped what they were doing and ran to Fang Qiu to welcome him.

However, there were not many people at the moment because most of the villagers had gone out to collect herbs. After all, this was the first method they had found to make money. They had to grasp the chance and make more money to build their tribe into a better one.

“Ah…Wo…Awwoo…”

Those people didn’t know how to speak Anglan language or Arabb language. They jumped happily when they saw Fang Qiu and kept jumping around him excitedly.

“You’re here?”

When the old patriarch of the tribe walked out of his room and saw Fang Qiu, he immediately walked up to him and spoke to him with a smile as if Fang Qiu were his family.

“Yes.”

Fang Qiu nodded with a smile and said, “Let everybody go back to work.”

The old patriarch told the villagers to go back to work with a smile. The villagers looked at Fang Qiu with a grin and couldn’t help looking back at him as they went back to their houses.

“The tribe is developing well. I believe that it won’t take long before the village evolves into a normal village and build connections with the world outside,” said Fang Qiu.

“Yes, and thanks to you, we made it.”

The old patriarch looked around as he continued with a happy smile, “Thank you. Without you, we wouldn’t have been able to make these changes.”

“No, you should thank your ancestors,” Fang Qiu shook his head and said. “Without their hard work, I wouldn’t have been able to find the cure for malaria in your tribe, and if I hadn’t found that cure, I wouldn’t have come here and those herbs wouldn’t have been found. Everything wouldn’t have been different.”

“Yes,” the old patriarch nodded in agreement and said. “In fact, this is just the beginning. Previously, when the people from the government came here to collect the herbs, they told me that they would build a transit base nearby for medicinal herbs. They will process those herbs according to the method you mentioned.”

“This is good news for you.”

Fang Qiu nodded and continued, “You have learned how to process the herbs ahead of others. Before the base is built up, you can make some money by processing the herbs. After the base is established, you can work at the base and contact the people from the outside world.”

“Yes.”

The old patriarch nodded and said, “That’s what I’m thinking too. Once the base is built up, our tribe would be connected to the outside world. By then, the tribe members would have many more chances to learn other languages and skills.”

The old patriarch began to think about what their life would be like in the future.

The more he thought about it, the more grateful he was to Fang Qiu.

Fang Qiu also put forward some good suggestions while listening to the old patriarch’s words. Those suggestions were about how to make full use of the tribe members’ skills, how they could live a better life by using their skills in modern society, and so on.

After chatting with the old patriarch for a long time, Fang Qiu went to see the Earth Treasures.

Although a large number of people had begun to collect herbs, they didn’t reach the place where the Earth Treasures were because that place was far away from their village.

Along the way, Fang Qiu saw many herb-collecting workers. Among them, there were people from both the tribe and the government.

These people were busy picking herbs and paid no attention to Fang Qiu.

Soon, Fang Qiu reached where the Earth Treasures were.

“There are a bit more fruits.”

Fang Qiu found that Three Lives, the herb ranked third among the Earth Treasures, bore some new fruits on their vines, and the fruits they had produced before were still yellow.

That meant these fruits had not ripened yet.

“Although I haven’t seen any guardian beasts of the Earth Treasures, I learned from the Scroll of Heaven and Earth Treasures that Earth Treasures have their guardian beasts. The higher the Earth Treasures’ rankings are, the more likely they would have guardian beasts. Since Three Lives are ranked third among the Earth Treasures, they should have a guardian beast.”

With this thought in mind, Fang Qiu immediately turned his head and looked around.

However, he didn’t find anything after looking around for a long time. But at this moment, a black shadow suddenly appeared in the distance.

He took a closer look.

It was an animal with white fur growing on its head and back and black fur on the rest part of its body.

Its head was very flat.

Its eyes were black and bulged out like those of a human’s. There was a murderous look in its eyes.

“Oh my God! Is that a Honey Badger?”

Seeing this animal, Fang Qiu couldn’t help but smile wryly.

Honey Badgers, also known as ratels, are the only species in the genus Mellivora of Mustelidae family. They are averagely about 98 centimeters long. They have grey fur on their back and their fur is loose and rough. They are about the size of Meles.

They always live in equatorial rainforests and open grassland areas alone or in pairs. They usually hunt at dusk or night and rest in daylight in their caves.

They are known as Honey Badgers because they find beehives with the aid of a bird called honeyguide.

They are the most fearless animals in the world and have been entered into the Guinness Book of Records for this reason.

They don’t fear any of their opponents.

Someone even wrote a poem for them and posted it online, which read: They are either fighting or on their way to fight; strong and fearless, they would fight anyone they don’t like.

Why are ratels so brave?

That is because they feed on snakes. They aren’t afraid of snake venom and are immune to it.

Even if they get bitten by a venomous snake, they would recover after a night or two nights of rest.

They are almost invincible among the animals about their size.

That is probably why they are so fearless!

The ratel Fang Qiu saw was looking at him with murderous eyes. It crawled toward Fang Qiu with its four short claws, looking very overbearing as if it didn’t take Fang Qiu seriously at all.

From the looks of it, it had taken Fang Qiu as its enemy and wanted to start a fight with him.

“I can’t afford to mess with you. I have to go.

“You’re too tough,” Fang Qiu murmured as he left in a hurry with a wry smile.

Seeing Fang Qiu running away, the ratel stopped crawling, snorted disdainfully, and then went back to its cave to rest.

“How could it be a ratel?

“It looks like I can only get those Earth Treasures when they are transplanted,” Fang Qiu said with a bitter smile as he left the place.

After he returned to the primitive tribe, he would chat with the old patriarch and teach the tribe members how to better process the herbs during the day and would cultivate at the night while sitting with his legs crossed.

Three days later, the construction team arrived.

The team was led by Wang Yichen, a young man who was from a rich family and was in charge of the project in Leprosy Village.

Seeing Fang Qiu, Wang Yichen greeted him in surprise.

“You’re here?”

Fang Qiu smiled.

“I didn’t see you at the airport, so I thought you didn’t come here,” Wang Yichen said with a smile.

“Well, since you guys have arrived, I got to go,” answered Fang Qiu.

“Are you leaving so soon?”

Wang Yichen was stunned and asked, “Why don’t you stay a few more days and tell us about the project process?”

“Sorry, I have something to deal with, so I will leave after saying hello to everyone,” Fang Qiu shook his head and said.

“Okay.”

Wang Yichen nodded and said, “Anyway, the government will have the procedures arranged well.”

…

Then, Wang Yichen led Fang Qiu to see those 1,000 pharmacists.

They were in an open space.

It was exactly the place where the transit base that the old patriarch mentioned would be built.

Those pharmacists had come here to see whether the place was suitable for processing herbs and how the transit base would be built.

Those pharmacists were very excited to see Fang Qiu.

“Look, it’s Fang Qiu!”

“Oh my God, I can’t believe I see Fang Qiu.”

“I saw him. I’m so happy.”

“He is the idol of all the Chinese Medicine practitioners. I’m so excited now.”

They whispered among themselves.

Following Wang Yichen, Fang Qiu walked over with a smile and looked at those pharmacists.

Originally, they were standing in groups without any order, but when they saw Fang Qiu, they immediately gathered and stood in an orderly formation.

“Hello, everyone, I’m Fang Qiu.”

Standing there facing those pharmacists, Fang Qiu said with a smile, “I came to say hello. Since you guys have arrived, I will leave this place soon. Thank you guys for coming all the way here.”
