The Medical Guru Chapter 1113 -All Kinds of Medicine Coexist!

Chapter 1113 All Kinds of Medicine Coexist!

“This was a silent fight, and a life and death struggle.”

Looking at the huge crowd, the president said in a very firm tone, “And we won the fight at last.”

As soon as he said that, all the people present applauded immediately.

The applause lasted for a long time.

The president raised his hand and gestured for the audience to be quiet. After they stopped applauding, he continued, “I want to thank all the doctors of the medical assistance team. You tried your best to help us win this fight. You came all the way here from Huaxia and lent us a hand to fight the disease. Thank you so much.

“Besides, I want to thank Huaxia and its government for their help and support. I firmly believe that the friendship between Huaxia and Africo will last forever. We will help each other and create a better future together.

“At last, I want to extend special thanks to University of Jiangjing Chinese Medicine from Huaxia.

“I know that most of the members of the medical assistance team are from this university, and every year, the students of this university would offer medical assistance to us.

“Thank you for your assistance and for helping our patients. You are the most lovely, professional, and trustworthy people in the world in the hearts of Comores people.”

The president pointed at the medical assistance team led by Jiang Miaoyu when he said those words.

“Clap! Clap! Clap…”

Loud applause rang out again.

“To express our gratitude, I, on behalf of Comores, want to reward you with Knight’s Medal, the most precious medal of our country.”

Some people walked out of the palace with trays in their hands.

Jiang Miaoyu and other members of the medical team walked onto the stage and stopped in front of the podium. They received the medals and looked very excited.

Standing in the crowd, Fang Qiu couldn’t help smiling when he saw Jiang Miaoyu’s excited look.

After the rewarding ceremony, Jiang Miaoyu and her team members returned to their seats while the president walked onto the stage again.

“Next,” the president looked around before fixing his eyes on Fang Qiu and saying, “I want to introduce the person who helped us the most in winning this fight, to you. His name is Fang Qiu!

“It was him who found the cure for malaria, bringing hope to hundreds of millions of patients who are suffering from malaria.

“He put his own life at risk to find the cure, and without him, we wouldn’t have won the fight.

“He saved Comores and the entire Africo.

“I want to extend sincere gratitude to him, on behalf of myself, and the government and the people of Comores.

“We will forever remember his contribution!”

The audience applauded again.

Fang Qiu felt a little embarrassed.

The people around were all looking at him with glinting eyes. The locals of Comores and those people who were cured by him, in particular, were looking at him with admiration.

“As the president of Comores, I appreciate Fang Qiu’s contribution to our country. I want to reward him with Comores Medal, the highest honor of our country.”

As soon as he said that, a man walked out of the palace with a tray in his hands.

Upon a closer look, the audience could see a pure gold medal on it.

The map of Union of the Comores was engraved on the medal, and the locations of the four island states could be clearly seen on it.

This medal represented the highest honor of Comores.

Fang Qiu walked onto the stage in a hurry.

While the local media and various foreign media were taking pictures of him, the president hang the medal on Fang Qiu’s left chest.

Under the shining sunlight, the medal that represented the highest honor of Comores gave off dazzling rays of light.

“Clap! Clap! Clap…”

The applause was deafening.

Everyone’s eyes were on Fang Qiu.

It was neither envy nor jealousy in their eyes.

Instead, they were looking at Fang Qiu with admiration and awe as if he were a god. The kind of emotion was hard to read but easy to understand.

After Fang Qiu received his medal, the president returned to the podium and said, “Next, please welcome Fang Qiu, the winner of the Comores Medal, to come onto stage and give a speech!”

As soon as he said that, the applause of the audience became even louder.

Fang Qiu stepped onto the podium.

“Hello, everyone, I’m Fang Qiu.”

Standing on the podium, Fang Qiu first bowed to everyone present and then said, “I’m honored to stand here today.

“I’ve always believed an old saying.

“That is, learn from the past and apply the lessons we learned to our lives today.”

He spoke the saying in Huaxia language.

“That means, we need to learn from the excellent cultural heritage from ancient times and apply them to further develop our society,” he explained.

Everyone understood as soon as they heard his words.

“Traditional medicine is both the oldest and youngest science,” Fang Qiu continued with a smile.

Everyone was stunned.

Both the oldest and youngest science?

Why did Fang Qiu say that? Weren’t that a paradoxical statement?

After seeing people’s confused looks, Fang Qiu smiled and said, “I believe that all of you know our traditional medicine is passed down from ancient times. You might be confused as to why I said it was the youngest science. I’ll explain it.

“In ancient times, there were five major kinds of medicine. They were Chinese Medicine, Indie Medicine, Arabb Medicine, Africo Medicine, and Greacie Medicine.

“Modern medicine, inspired by ancient Greacie philosophy and modern reductionism, is a biomedical model based on anthroponomy, pathologic physiology, pathogeny microbiology, and pharmacology.”

Those who didn’t know medical science, including the president, were confused after hearing his words.

Only those medical practitioners knew that what Fang Qiu said was true.

They all nodded in agreement at Fang Qiu’s words.

Fang Qiu said those words to the medical practitioners around the world, so he didn’t care whether ordinary people could understand his words or not.

He continued, “Among the five major kinds of traditional medicine, Chinese Medicine enjoys a history of several thousand years. Based on the natural philosophy of ‘Yin and Yang’ and ‘the five elements’, Chinese Medicine attaches great importance to the theories of ‘correspondence between man and universe’, ‘unity of body and soul’, and ‘correlation between the five viscera’ as a whole. It is good at applying the theories such as ‘governing exterior to infer interior’ and ‘analogism’ to its medical practice and has formed a complete medical system based on its rich experience in the past years.”

At this point, even some medical practitioners couldn’t understand what he was saying, but the people from Huaxia could.

Of course, those expedition personnel who had been observing on the spot could understand Fang Qiu’s words as well. They had been communicating with Fang Qiu for a long time and had studied Chinese Medicine secretly. As a result, they knew something about Chinese Medicine though they didn’t know those definitions well.

When Fang Qiu spoke, they listened very carefully.

“This system, guided by the overall theory, seeks harmony between human beings and nature and grasps human beings’ health from an overall and systematic perspective. It attaches great importance to the patients instead of illness itself,” Fang Qiu added.

Everyone was stunned by his words.

“It attaches great importance to the patients instead of illness itself?”

At first, they found the words a little strange, but after thinking about it carefully, they found that the words made sense.

The purpose of curing diseases was to save patients, so it was natural that great importance should be attached to the patients.

“In terms of physiology, Chinese Medicine, based on the theories about viscera, meridians, vital energy, and body fluid, puts forward that Yin and Yang should be balanced and vital energy should be running smoothly.

“In terms of treatment, Chinese Medicine, featuring syndrome differentiation and treatment and individual diagnoses and treatments, attaches great importance to individual differentiation and dynamic development of the disease. In terms of prescriptions, Chinese Medicine classifies the herbs according to their properties, and believes that there would be seven kinds of reactions when two or more kinds of herbs are used in one prescription. Based on this belief, it has created many prescriptions which could strengthen the potency of the herbs while weakening the toxicity of them.

“This is the characteristic of Chinese Medicine. Other kinds of traditional medicine also believe in the theory of unity between human and universe and have their own characteristics,” said Fang Qiu.

He paused for a moment before continuing, “This time, we found a cure from the Africo Medicine, and by combining the advantages of Chinese Medicine with Africo Medicine, we created a miracle.

“So I hope that people could learn and draw on experience from the traditional medicine that we have long abandoned, to benefit more people.

“I also hope that all kinds of medicine, be it traditional medicine or modern medicine, could coexist, draw on each other’s strengths, and work hard to create a new kind of medicine.”

As he spoke, Fang Qiu’s tone became firmer.

It was a powerful speech.

The audience was moved by his speech. Though they couldn’t understand what he was saying completely, they could feel his firm faith and his hope for the future.

“This should be the goal of our generation.

“Thank you, everyone,” he said.

After the speech, Fang Qiu bowed and stepped off the stage.

“Clap! Clap! Clap…”

As soon as he finished speaking, the audience applauded enthusiastically again.

In particular, Jiang Miaoyu and her team members seemed to be greatly inspired after hearing Fang Qiu’s speech. They all looked at Fang Qiu with respect in their eyes!

The president also applauded. He walked to Fang Qiu, and led him to the open space in front of the podium. Standing together, they faced all the media reporters who were taking photos of them.

Then, all the people present took several photos together.

Soon, these photos were sent back to Huaxia via the media.

Of course, the ones to receive the photos first were the domestic media platforms.

As soon as the photos were released, they hit the headlines of various websites and some reporters even started to report the event.

The news also became a hot topic on Weibo.

A heated discussion immediately broke out among the netizens.
