103 Calm the Nerves and Reduce Pain (1/2)
Consolidating the corporeity was a long process. It was unknown how long it would take for the herbs to take effect. So, treating Zhou Xiong's son was an opportunity for Wang Yao to test his knowledge and ability and observe the effect of his herbs. Of course, the child's health would always be his priority. Even if the child could not be cured completely, Wang Yao was determined to improve his health.
Wang Yao worked until the mid of the night without having dinner. He had written down everything he could think of.
I can put all the cases like this together and even write a book for other practitioners to read, thought Wang Yao.
The ancient Chinese herbal books were also classified summaries from ancient Chinese Traditional Medical Practitioners. But, Wang Yao had been using licorice roots, which were rare herbs and only could be obtained from Nanshan hill. Therefore, his classified summary might not be useful to other practitioners.
It suddenly occurred to Wang Yao that maybe the licorice roots could be grown in other places, provided the same conditions for growth were available.
This was the first time he had such thoughts since he obtained the magical herbal system. The licorice roots were much more powerful than common herbs. It would benefit a lot of people if the method of growing licorice roots could be passed on from generation to generation.
But this was a big deal for Wang Yao. It required careful considerations and shouldn't be done in a rush. Rushing would probably cause big trouble to his family and himself and wouldn't help Wang Yao's goals.
Wang Yao continued to do his breathing exercises and read scriptures despite his busy life. He had a busy but quiet life at the moment.

Inside a hotel of Lianshan, Zhou Xiong found that his son started to have some color return to his face. The child's eyes also lit up a bit, which made Zhou Xiong thrilled.
”How do you feel, Zhou Wukang?” asked Zhou Xiong.
”I feel warm and more comfortable,” said Zhou Wukang.
”Great! Dr. Wang is wonderful!” said Zhou Xiong.
His son hadn't finished half of the decoctions given by Wang Yao, and he had already started to feel better. What a wonderful doctor! thought Zhou Xiong.
”Everything's good so far?” Zhou Xiong was still a bit concerned about side effects.
”Yes,” said Zhou Wukang.
