Chapter 672: 672

Chapter 672 Media Scrum!

On the next day, the Huaxia media had also received the news .

In fact, the Internet was already ablaze, and various media outlets in Huaxia had also knew what happened . Before they officially received broadcast information transmitted by the medical conference, each major media outlet had already took a few screenshots that would shock the entire world from footage of the live streamed event online and began writing special reports .

Currently, the western countries’ admiration of Chinese Medicine, along with all sorts of heated discussion about Fang Qiu came in unison with news of the medical conference .

On this day, Chinese Medicine had become a very popular topic!

Fang Qiu had started a second wave of interest in Chinese Medicine, after the Young Chinese Medicine Doctor .

Momentarily, many media outlets began to interview famous Chinese Medicine physicians . Some media companies directly went to hunt for sources in traditional Chinese Medical schools and even dragged elderly physicians living among common folk to interview, after they were unable to find any renowned ones, to listen to the seniors talk about stories of their practice and meridians, before compiling their findings into reports and publishing them .

This was because topics related to traditional Chinese medicine and meridians were exactly what everyone was interested in .

There were even some media outlets that took an alternative approach and found some Qigong masters to inquire about how to practice Qigong and the way to achieve Insight . In the end, they really did manage to discover a few methods .

Without a doubt, this was something that all the readers were most interested in .

On the other side of things, just as Chinese Medicine had stirred up another wave of interest in Huaxia, and as the study of meridians in traditional medicine had created a huge commotion in the entire medical world, Fang Qiu, who was situated at Switzerland currently, had just woke up after a night’s rest .

“The medical conference is done, I guess . I should head to Norway next . ”

A thought came to Fang Qiu’s mind and he immediately fished out the sheepskin scroll he obtained at the Chic Cloud Pavilion in exchange for a sixth-class sword .

Fang Qiu peeled the scroll open and looked carefully at it .

He realized that the sheepskin scroll was indeed a treasure map . However, it looked a little old, as if it was had come from many years ago .

A large patch of water and patches of land were shown on the old treasure map .

Also, the spot marked with a red dot was Norway!

“Indeed, that’s Norway,” Fang Qiu remarked with a grin .

Just as he was about to roll the treasure map back up, his hands suddenly stopped moving .

“Hum?”

Unexpectedly, Fang Qiu seemed to have touched something just now; it was a spot that was obviously on a different level with the others .

“The Absolute Touch!”

Fang Qiu’s eyes lit up and he immediately used the Absolute Touch to search the map .

Eventually, just as he expected, Fang Qiu discovered that there was an interval hidden in between the sheepskin scroll .

“Could the treasure map on the surface of this treasure map actually be fake?”

Fang Qiu brought his hands together and directly rubbed the hidden section of the sheepskin scroll with his palms . Upon close inspection, he saw that a map was also drawn on it, but it was much clearer than that shown on the outer surface . It was also marked at the same spot as the map on the exterior—it was also referring to Norway as well!

“No wonder that guy was so sure that the Heaven Treasure is situated in Norway . ”

Fang Qiu looked carefully at the diagram shown on the hidden section of the map .

He realized that it actually depicted the approximate time .

Upon calculation, the Heaven Treasure described in this treasure map was about to come of age soon .

Just at this very moment…

“Thud… Thud… Thud…”

The sound of someone knocking on Fang Qiu’s door could be heard .

“Who’s that?” Fang Qiu asked as he immediately kept the sheepskin scroll up .

“Hello, Mr . Fang Qiu . We are from the executive committee of the World Health Organization and World Medical Exchange Conference,” came the reply from the other side of his door .

Fang Qiu frowned slightly .

He got up to open the door only after keeping the sheepskin scroll .

Indeed, the people who were outside his room were from the 32 representatives . Fang Qiu casually glanced across them and realized that there were about 18 of them— more than half of the committee .

“Do you have something for me, representatives?” Fang Qiu asked suspiciously .

“It’s like this,” the representative leading the group got up and said, giving Fang Qiu a friendly smile . “We have come to a decision after holding a meeting at the behest of everyone else, and would like to invite you to continue giving your lectures to us . All of us are very curious about Chinese Medicine, and have also realized the captivating aspect of it . Thus, we hope that you will be kind enough to teach us, Mr . Fang Qiu . ”

“That’s right, it’s a rare occasion for you to come over here to Switzerland, Mr . Fang Qiu . You can’t just leave like this… We don’t even know when you will return! Please give us a few more lectures before you leave . ”

One after another, the representatives made their requests .

Fang Qiu could not help himself from laughing bitterly after hearing the group .

Originally, he had wanted to hurry over to Norway after breakfast, to check out how the Heaven Treasure was growing . He did not expect that the committee members would come finding for him before he had even packed up .

“Come to think of it, all of them are representatives from the medical world of various countries . If I teach them and let them understand Chinese Medicine, leading them to fall in love with it, then they will very likely be able to promote traditional medicine in their own nations . If that happens, the global development of Chinese Medicine will be much faster than what I expected . ”

“Alright,” Fang Qiu directly nodded in agreement after laughing helplessly .

These representatives were really passionate, and he had also just proved the existence of meridians at the medical conference, causing them to become the focal point of everyone’s attention now . Also, with the opening of the World Medical Exchange Conference, physicians who were the cream of the crop in their respective nations had gathered in Switzerland .

Under such circumstances, how could the elite physicians allow Fang Qiu to leave so easily?

Fang Qiu’s proving of the existence of meridians had truly shocked the entire medical world . They had to take this opportunity to probe and learn about Chinese Medicine from Fang Qiu!

Furthermore, Fang Qiu had already thought it through . According to his estimation, based on the approximate time recorded on the sheepskin scroll, even though the Heaven Treasure in Norway was about to come of age, it would still take a considerable amount of time . There was no hurry for him to head to Norway anyway .

Since he could not leave, and there was no real cause for him to do so right away, and he could even continue to promote Chinese Medicine, why would Fang Qiu not be happy to help?

After Fang Qiu had agreed to the requests of the members of the standing committee from the World Health Organization and representatives from the 32 nations, they immediately discussed among themselves and confirmed the time slots of Fang Qiu’s lectures and the usage of the conference room .

At first, Fang Qiu had believed that if would be sufficient for him to conduct another day’s worth of lectures . However, after the continual pleading of the employees of the World Health Organization and experts from the field of medicine of various nations, Fang Qiu ended up giving lecture after lecture . In the blink of an eye, he had already spent three more days in Switzerland .

During these three days, not only did Fang Qiu conduct lectures for these representatives and medical experts . He even helped a portion of them try to witness the presence of meridians during his talks .

Eventually, it led a significant number of them to mention that they definitely had to head to Huaxia for an exchange and learning session .

It was only after everyone had listened to Fang Qiu’s lectures to their hearts content that they let him leave .

Of course, during these three days, Fang Qiu had also built firm friendships with the representatives and elites from the various nations . He had become their teacher and friend at the same time .

After the lectures were completed and he had bid everyone farewell, Fang Qiu packed his things up and got ready to head home .

This was because he had become a target that was far too big now .

Aside from the people of Huaxia, there were people in every nation of the world who were following his movements . It was for this reason that he dared not to head directly to Norway from Switzerland— if he did so, wouldn’t the identity of the mysterious man be revealed?

Not only would the mysterious man’s identity be revealed, Fang Qiu would definitely be linked to him .

There was no way that Fang Qiu wanted to court such trouble .

Just as Fang Qiu packed his luggage and walked out of the hotel, members of the Western media, who were waiting to interview him, immediately crowded around him the instant they spotted him .

They swarmed Fang Qiu with questions .

Upon noticing this, the hotel’s security hurried over to protect Fang Qiu .

As Fang Qiu had been escorted around by the World Health Organization over the past three days, the reporters had been unable to see him and had no way of interviewing him . Now that they finally managed to spot him, they were definitely going to question him to their heart’s content .

Fang Qiu did not dare to let his guard down in a situation like this . This was because he was very clear that he was currently overseas and representing the reputation of the people of Huaxia and those who practiced Chinese Medicine . He could not offend these Western reporters in the slightest bit; after all, the development of traditional medicine still required the push of Western media outlets .

As such, Fang Qiu did not reject any of their questions and directly allowed himself to be interviewed at the hotel entrance .

“May I ask if you think modern medicine is no match for traditional medicine, Mr . Fang Qiu?” A reporter instantly directed an extremely tricky question at him .

“Modern medicine been developed over so many years, and technological advancement in this field has already reached such a high level . Yet, as a whole it has failed to even grasp concepts in traditional medicine . Does this mean that people now are not living as well as our ancestors?”

Upon hearing the question, Fang Qiu was momentarily stunned before he recovered and replied the reporter with a humble smile, “The study of medicine cannot be compared in this manner . Medical practices that can treat patients better are the true ‘good practices’ . Modern medicine has an unassailable advantage over traditional medicine . For example, in the past, only very skilled physicians would be able to administer treatment for blunt force trauma, fractures and first aid, and they were few and far between . Modern medicine, however, is different . It can make use of surgical knives to perform first aid and treatment; this is one aspect of modern medicine that we have to admit it is stronger at!”

Fang Qiu paused for a while before adding, “However, I need to mention something . Traditional medicine is the direction modern medicine is moving toward to, because only the former truly understands life . ”

All of the reporters transcribed his words profusely .

Another person questioned him again afterward . “Mr . Fang Qiu, you kept speaking about Chinese Medicine in Huaxia and used it to represent traditional medicine as a whole . Do you think that the study of Chinese Medicine in Huaxia is the pride of all traditional medical practices in the world?”

“Yes!”

Upon hearing the reporter’s question, Fang Qiu did not even need to think before he instantly replied with a very certain nod .

“Isn’t that statement far too unequivocal?”

The reporter was doubtful .

“No,” Fang Qiu replied, shaking his head .

“You should go the libraries in Huaxia to see exactly how many ancient texts about Chinese Medicine there are . ”

“Currently, the Huaxia culture is the only surviving member of the Four Great Civilizations, and the study of Chinese Medicine of the Huaxia people has never been discontinued before since ancient times . It has been passed down for generations and has a history of a few millennia . How great is that? And how profound is the depth of it?”

“So, I can say in very certain terms that Chinese Medicine is the pride of all forms of traditional medicine . ”

“Or rather, to put it in another way— Chinese Medicine ranks as the top among all forms of traditional medicine!”

The reporters at the hotel exclaimed in unison upon hearing his statement .

All of them hurriedly recorded his words down one after another . This was a big scoop!

“Will you release the method of Insight observation to the public, Mr . Fang?” A reporter asked .

“I can teach all of you as well, if you people are interested,” Fang Qiu replied with a gentle smile .

“However, I hope that everyone works hard on this aspect . It’ll be enough if we can all know that it exists, and that we can make use of it . After all, Insight requires a huge amount of time and effort to be accomplished,” he added .
