“Eh?”
Xu Miaolin stopped what he was doing and looked at Fang Qiu curiously, then he asked, “Why did you ask that?”
“It’s for my three roommates.”
Fang Qiu explained. “They haven’t found a master that they could follow, and they asked me to find teachers for them. They have been working really hard recently. I don’t know a lot of people in the hospital, so I came here to ask you, to see if you can hook them off with a master.”
“Is that so.”
Xu Miaolin nodded with understanding, then he thought about it for a while and said, “There’s someone in my mind.”
“Who?”
Fang Qiu asked immediately.
This person must be very special to be in Xu Miaolin’s mind.
“The ranger of the Yaowang Mountain.”
Xu Miaolin answered.
Fang Qiu was shocked at his answer.
He was surprised that Xu Miaolin would recommend a ranger of the Yaowang Mountain.
But a figure of an old man immediately appeared in his head.
This old man often supervised the herbs on the Yaowang Mountain. Just when he walked past the Yaowang Mountain and saw Professor Ma Wenxuan doing a field trip, that old man was hoeing the herbs like no one else was watching.
“Is he good?”
Fang Qiu asked curiously.
“Yes.”
Xu Miaolin nodded and answered. “In medical skill, he’s basically an amateur, but this man is extremely obsessed with Chinese herbs, which is his specialty, no one in this school can beat him in this.”
“What about Professor Ma Wenxuan?”
Fang Qiu asked surprisingly.
“Professor Ma is indeed very good, but he still can’t match with him in Chinese herbs.”
Xu Miaolin said, “He has no interest in fame and money and puts all this attention and time on studying Chinese herbs. If your roommates are interested in this, he’s quite a good choice for them.”
Hearing this.
Fang Qiu was a little surprised.
Were there people like that in the world?
Were there people who would spend their lifetimes and everything on studying Chinese herbs in the world?
This wasn’t something ordinary people could do, the person who could do this must be able to reach realms other people couldn’t normally reach no matter this person had talent or not.
Besides, even Xu Miaolin showed respect for him while mentioning him, one could only imagine how proficient this Yaowang Mountain ranger was in Chinese herbs.
“There are so many hidden talents in this school.”
Fang Qiu heaved a sigh.
He thanked Xu Miaolin, then turned around and left.
He randomly grabbed something to eat in the canteen, then headed back to his dorm.
“What did you do?”
Sun Hao was sitting in front of the desk, he turned to look at Fang Qiu and said, “We were going to wait for you to have dinner, but you still hadn’t come back even after we finished the meal, the food is cold now.”
“Our big brother brought food for you to show his gratitude.”
Zhou Xiaotian echoed.
“You guys want to show your gratitude, right?”
Fang Qiu said, “It’s never too late.”
Zhou Xiaotian said hastily. “Midnight snacks are bad for you, we must protect you from them. Come on, spill it, any good news?”
“Actually I have a good news.”
Fang Qiu laughed and said.
Zhou Xiaotian was taken aback.
It was just a subject-changing question, he didn’t think there really would be good news.
“What’s the good news?”
Zhu Benzheng asked with anticipation.
Fang Qiu left them to find a master for them, now he came back and claimed that he had good news.
Could it be…
Sun Hao and Zhou Xiaotian also realized what happened, both looked at Fang Qiu with excitement and anticipation.
“I found a master for you guys.”
Fang Qiu said smilingly.
“Really?!”
The three of them stood up immediately and looked at Fang Qiu with surprise, finding it hard to believe.
“Really.”
Fang Qiu quickly dragged them to sit down, then said, “I did find a master for you guys, but I’m not sure whether he will take you or not.”
“He definitely will, we are such good students!”
Zhou Xiaotian waved his hand and said with certainty, then he realized something and looked at Fang Qiu confusedly. “Then you basically did nothing for us, right?”
“Of course I did something.”
Fang Qiu reluctantly looked at Zhou Xiaotian who stood up again, then said, “You have done interviews for the fifty masters, so you know that it’s nearly impossible to get in and follow them, even if you and the masters agree, the other students who got left behind won’t agree.”
“And I’m not important enough to get you in. But the master I found for you this time, is really special.”
Then He put on a mysterious smile.
“Who is it?”
Zhu Benzheng asked curiously.
Sun Hao and Zhou Xiaotian also stared at Fang Qiu with bright eyes.
“The ranger of the Yaowang Mountain.”
Fang Qiu laughed out loud and said, “Surprise! Surprise! How about that? Is he good enough?”
“That old man?”
Zhou Xiaotian asked, holding back the urge to punch him in the face.
He actually found a ranger for them!
Was he joking with his big brothers?
Fang Qiu laughingly told them everything about this Yaowang Mountain ranger.
Hearing that, the three of them immediately jumped with joy and excitement.
“Is this real?”
Even Zhu Benzheng, the calmest one among them, was overwhelmed with joy.
They would give Fang Qiu a big kiss if he was a girl.
“Yes, it’s real.”
Watching them being so happy, Fang Qiu laughingly nodded, then said, “The ranger is definitely one of the top experts in Chinese herbs. And now we have two problems, the first one is whether you guys are willing to learn Chinese herbs, the second one is how to be his apprentices, which depends on yourselves.”
“No problem!”
Sun Hao immediately stood up and said, “We are very satisfied with this master you found for us, we can take care of the rest, we’ll make it this time.”
So far he was making sense, then he added. “After all we’re pretty awesome.”
Fang Qiu had nothing to say.
If they were that awesome then why weren’t they selected already?
“I also believe we can do this!”
Zhou Xiaotian echoed with a firm and persistent face.
“This is such a rare chance. We have to give our best this time.”
Zhu Benzheng said with full hope in his heart, then looked at Fang Qiu with gratitude and said, “Little brother, thank you for the information you gave us, thank you for doing us such a big favor, I don’t what to say or do, please don’t hesitate to find us if you need anything.”
“Definitely.”
Zhou Xiaotian nodded to agree.
“We’re brothers!”
Sun Hao echoed immediately, and said, “Just tell us whenever you need anything, but we’ll see if we can help you then.”
Hearing what he said.
Zhe Benzheng and Zhou Xiaotian both nodded.
Again, Fang Qiu had nothing to say.
In order to be apprentices of the master, the three of them immediately started to read books about Chinese herbs, it would be embarrassing if they couldn’t answer any of the master’s questions.
They stayed quiet for the rest of the night.
At seven o’clock the next morning.
It wasn’t even the work time for the staff.
The list of nine participants for the freshmen knowledge competition had been released!
The list was posted on the notice board in the school, it was also put on the campus forum online.
After breakfast.
“The third oldest, now you check the Internet to see who were on the list.”
Zhou Xiaotian hurried him when they were heading back to dorm to pick up some books.
“Why hurry, we’re not in it anyway.”
Sun Hao rolled his eyes on Zhou Xiaotian, then opened his laptop on the desk.
“We’re not in it, but little brother is definitely in it, but we don’t know his ranking.”
Zhou Xiaotian said.
Soon.
Sun Hao logged in the campus forum.
The list of participants for the freshmen knowledge competition.
On the notice board at the top of the forum page, a line of bright red characters got everyone’s attention.
He clicked on the title.
“The announcement of the last test of Chinese Medicine academy in our school, and the announcement of the ranking of the freshmen knowledge competition.”
“Under the great support of the Chinese Medicine academy office, school academic affairs department, student office and other offices, and all the teachers who worked in the frontline, the last test of our academy had finished.”
“This test not only aimed for the examination of the students’ knowledge, but also aimed for the selection of participants for the freshmen knowledge competition in all the academies.”
“I hope the participants who got selected into the competition can fight for University of Jiangjing Chinese Medicine, Chinese Medicine Academy. And I hope the students who didn’t get in can keep up the hard work in studying Chinese Medicine!”
“Attached: The top nine students in this test.”
“The first place: Fang Qiu, grade: 100 (full credit).”
“The first place in parallel: Zhao Yancheng, grade: 100 (full credit).”
“The first place in parallel: Jiang Miaoyu, grade: 100 (full credit).”
…
Seeing the top three students.
The three of them in front of the laptop were all very surprised.
“Little brother, you actually got the first place!”
Sun Hao turned and looked at Fang Qiu with a surprised expression, the latter was leisurely reading a book, showing no interest in the list, as if he had nothing to do with him.
This dude handed in the paper in half an hour.
And he actually got full credit!
“Little brother, you really are a creep!”
Zhou Xiaotian said jealously.
Fang Qiu shrugged, meaning I was that smart, what were you gonna do about it.
The three of them honestly wasn’t that shocked about the result cause they knew Fang Qiu would definitely get in.
They were just surprised that he actually got full credit.
They kept scrolling down.
When they saw the ninth place.
The atmosphere suddenly changed.
In front of the computer.
Sun Hao and Zhou Xiaotian were dumbfounded, they turned around and looked at Zhu Benzheng, finding the result unbelievable.
“The ninth place: Zhu Benzheng, grade: 92!!!”
Sun Hao said in the most shocked tone.
At aside.
Fang Qiu, who was reading, also turned around surprised and looked at Zhu Benzheng.
“Great, big brother!”
Zhou Xiaotian realized something, then sighed. “So how much you have been hiding from us?”
“Congratulations.”
Fang Qiu smiled and said, “Your apprentice plan will be a lot easier with this grade.”
“Big brother.”
Sun Hao also realized something and said, “Honestly, did you stay up for nights to study behind our backs?”
“How could I just do the temporary review like you guys?”
Zhu Benzheng was really excited about this grade.
Even he didn’t think that he would actually get the ninth place and successfully get in the competition.
But apart from the excitement.
He didn’t mean to show off his grade, he said seriously, “I worked hard every day, put all my time and attention on study.”
To his surprise.
Hearing what he said, Sun Hao and Zhou Xiaotian immediately thought he was showing off.
“The fourth oldest!”
Sun Hao heaved a long sigh, then said to Zhou Xiaotian, “We can’t survive in this dorm anymore! Have you noticed that we are in a very awkward position?”
“Yes, very awkward!”
Zhou Xiaotian said with a sad face, “Just a few days after the beginning of this semester, with the blink of an eye, we’re at the bottom now.”
“Stop it!”
Sun Hao stood up abruptly, and took a resentful look at Fang Qiu and Zhu Benzheng, then added. “Let the straight A students compliment each other, we have to hurry up and prepare for our apprentice plan!”
Hearing that.
Zhou Xiaotian’s eyes lit up.
The two of them didn’t say anything anymore, grabbed the books and ran out of the dorm, rushed to the Yaowang Mountain.
Hey, wait for me.”
Zhu Benzheng heard them, then ran out and followed them behind without hesitation.
Watching everything happened.
Fang Qiu shook his head and laughed softly.
He jumped out of the bed to turned off the laptop for Sun Hao.
Then when he stood in front of the laptop, he suddenly saw a red, bold post on top of the forum.
“Fresh new! The lists of freshmen knowledge competition from the other eight schools.”
A thought came to his mind.
Fang Qiu thought of Jiang Mengjie all of a sudden.
Jingbei University of Chinese Medicine also seemed to be one of the eight schools.
Jiang Mengjie was studying in Jingbei University of Chinese Medicine.
“Will she be on the list?”
