Lei Qianjue actually admitted it himself, Xu Hao was his master!
Everyone was instantly stunned. How could this be possible?
Big brother, you are over seventy years old!
To accept a man in his twenties as your master?
Li Chenggong said speechlessly, "Medicine King Lei, did you remember it wrong, or did we hear it wrong?"
"Both are correct! This matter is true."
Lei Qianjue immediately told everyone about the day he first tried to save Elder Jiang but treated him incorrectly, and Xu Hao stepped in and resolved the issue immediately, after which he accepted Xu Hao as his master.
After listening to Lei Qianjue's account, Mr. Qian couldn't help but exclaim, "Alas! Looks can indeed be deceiving! Not only is Xu Xiao You powerful in martial arts, but his proficiency in medical skills is also so profound, compelling the esteemed Medicine King of the Southwest to concede defeat. One has to admit it!"
Li Chenggong also sincerely sighed, "This time, I was truly short-sighted! It really matches the saying—'The new waves of the Yangtze River drive on those before, and the former waves die on the beach.'"
Xu Hao smiled and said, "You two, stop disparaging me now. I merely had the luck to learn a little bit of medical skills. The Huaya Medical Arts are broad and profound; what I have learned is just the tip of the iceberg."
Lei Qianjue said with a bitter smile, "If you put it that way, then I haven't even thoroughly learned the tip of the iceberg." VisitMyVirtualLibraryEmpire(*)formore.
Hearing Xu Hao's humble words, Guan Wenzhi felt extremely embarrassed and wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into. Xu Hao's medical skills had left his own teacher in awe and respect, yet he remained so modest, while he himself had just been continuously rebuking him with accusatory words, not knowing how he had the courage to say them.
Guan Wenzhi hurriedly apologized, "Xu... Uncle Grandmaster Xu, please do not take to heart the disrespectful words I just said to you. I really didn't mean them...I..."
Lei Qianjue knew that Xu Hao was not one to hold grudges easily. As long as someone didn't intentionally provoke him, he was too lazy to bother with them.
Lei Qianjue also pleaded for Guan Wenzhi, "Master, Wenzhi has always been since he was a child,"
Xu Hao waved his hand slightly and smiled, "It's fine. Your original intention was good; you were just afraid that I was a quack who rashly used medications, which could lead to problems. However, your way of speaking was a bit too direct. Just make amends and that will be enough."
Seeing that Xu Hao was not taking the matter to heart, Guan Wenzhi heaved a sigh of relief. The fact that Xu Hao was his Uncle Grandmaster was terrifyingly impressive!
Had Lei Qianjue not mentioned it, who would have thought that Xu Hao was qualified to be Lei Qianjue's master?
Lei Qianjue changed the topic and said, "Now that the misunderstanding is resolved, Master, shouldn't we go and see Niuniu's albinism? I have already read all the information you gave me and learned a lot, but I still have many doubts about treating genetic diseases like albinism."
Xu Hao nodded slightly and said, "Reading a book a hundred times is not as good as seeing a live demonstration once. Fine, I will take this opportunity to teach you how to treat albinism, hoping that you can draw analogies from it to treat other simple genetic disorders."
"Very well, if I can also learn to treat ordinary genetic disorders, then my medical skills will ascend to another level!" Lei Qianjue was overjoyed. Genetic diseases, even the most common and simplest ones, cannot be cured with current medical methods; they can only be prevented in advance or monitored at all times, with slight corrections made as needed.
If he could treat some genetic disorders himself, that would definitely save the lives of many children!
Children like Niuniu, who suffer from albinism, end up developing psychological barriers, often unwilling to go outside, indirectly leading to an incomplete personality.
Lei Qianjue was very aware that getting Xu Hao to sit down and specifically cure people was difficult, as Xu cared more about martial prowess. Thus, he wanted to learn this medical skill to benefit patients.
The group entered Niuniu's room.
Niuniu's room obviously wasn't used to so many people coming in all at once, so she seemed very uneasy, and her whole body slightly retreated.
It was the first time Xu Hao had met Niuniu and the first time he had truly seen a patient with albinism.
Seeing that Niuniu, clearly a rich young lady, lacked the demeanor of one, and appeared instead like a frightened deer, Xu internally sighed deeply. Such genetic diseases are the most unfair for a person, as despite not having made any mistakes herself, she still had to endure such hardships.
While albinism is considered relatively safe compared to other more severe diseases, it can quickly degrade a patient's eyesight leading to severe myopia, and the skin changes can make it highly susceptible to skin cancer.
Lei Qianjue asked, "Master, how should this be treated?"
Xu Hao said, "The fundamental cause of albinism is a genetic mutation, resulting in the body's inability to produce or only producing very little melanin. To treat it, we need her body to continuously produce melanin. Therefore, the medications I prescribed are meant to transform her physical constitution to allow her body to keep generating melanin."
