Chapter Thirty-One: The Old Generals' Expectations

  When Han Ankang refused the nurse's support and walked out of this fully functional nursing car, his face was still very pale. At least walking alone was no big deal. Plus he was Zhao Hu's attending physician, if someone saw him, this doctor who treated illnesses looked more ill than the patient, it would also make people doubt his medical skills.

  Han Ankang got off the therapeutic vehicle and went straight to Choi Jin-san and Iron Hwang-woo, asking the commander to arrange a resting place for himself. He also instructed the staff at the rest home not to disturb him when he was in his room. He also asked Gu Heng, who was traveling with him, to give Zhao Hu a massage to calm his nerves later on.

  After finishing these things, Han Ankang didn't forget to instruct Tie Xingwu to pass on the message to this old man who was surprised and delighted today. Next, be sure to remember that keeping a calm attitude is the best way to improve his condition. If he gets too excited, it will also put a burden on his heart.

  Now Zhao Hu looks like he has moved away from death, but he still hasn't escaped the threat of the god of death. However, due to his understanding of these old military men and their unique military etiquette, Han Ankang didn't want to go over and disturb him either. He could only ask Tie Xingwu to pass on the message for him, while he himself went back to his room to meditate and recover the energy he had exhausted today.

  It's clear that the old chief is next, and whether he can fully recover his health depends on the help of this lifesaver's grandson. Originally wanted to greet the old chief, but seeing Han Ankang stopping him, don't disturb Zhao Hu's enthusiasm at this moment. Just wait for a while and follow his instructions, convey the entrustment just now.

  Looking at Han Ankang, who was very calm and composed in front of him, Tie Xingwu seemed to see his grandfather, Han Ankang, calmly facing their anxious soldiers back then, still able to accurately administer the antidote. Only when he saw his own old captain take out a gun and a pocket watch and ask him to choose between the two did Han Ankang's grandfather reveal a slightly helpless expression. Apart from this, it seemed that there were very few things that could move them in front of this pair of grandfather and grandson.

  He personally led Han Ankang to a two-story small building near a forest for rest, and Cui Zhen Shan would also stay in another room on the second floor tonight. As for those bodyguards, they all stayed on the first floor, which was also convenient for them to protect nearby. Moreover, this kind of small building was also where the military commission leaders used to stay when they came to inspect in the past. In terms of safety and comfort, it was undoubtedly the best place to rest.

  After checking the room's facilities, Han Ankang took over the medicine box from Choi Jin-san's bodyguard and bid farewell to everyone. After closing the door, he took out two slices of 100-year-old ginseng from the medicine box, put them in his mouth, and quickly sat down to practice qigong. His vital energy was restored once again after almost being severely injured!

  During the day, the wandering energy around is mostly yang energy, but in good environments, the wandering spiritual energy can also be absorbed into the body, which is also helpful to Han Ankang. As a result, Han Ankang now often likes places with lush green trees and doesn't like those steel-concrete iron cities very much.

  After Zhao Hu had met and chatted with all the old subordinates, he remembered that Han Ankang was about to introduce him to everyone. Only then did he discover that Han Ankang and Cui Zhen Shan had already left. After Tie Xing Wu repeated Han Ankang's instructions, Zhao Hu also felt that he seemed to have really healed his wounds and forgotten the pain.

  He had originally wanted to go and have a word with Han Ankang, but then he heard that Han Ankang had already returned to his room to rest, and had instructed that no one was to disturb him until he came out. Zhao Hu could only arrange for Cui Zhen Shan to be summoned, and introduced the old comrades who were enjoying their retirement in the nursing home one by one.

  When Choi Zhen Shan was almost dying from a strange illness some time ago, he was rescued by Han Ankang, who happened to be visiting South Korea as a tourist. He finally managed to save his life. Now it seems that not only have all his illnesses disappeared, but his complexion is also rosy and healthy, which makes these retired old cadres who are getting older and older feel envious.

  Always wondered who could have taken out the bullet next to Zhao Hu's heart, it was Liu Gang, the original political commissar of the Northeast Military Region. Upon learning that Han Ankang is now less than 23 years old, I couldn't help but marvel at his youth and exceptional medical skills. Especially after hearing that Commander Tie Xingwu, who is currently in office, also owed his life to Han Ankang's grandfather, who had saved him back then.

  "This old politician, who was also sighing with emotion, sighed and said: 'This grandfather and grandson can be said to be the greatest benefactors of our entire Northeast Military Region! Old tiger, if he hadn't retired, I really wanted to see what kind of young man he is. How can someone have such superb medical skills and bravery?'"

  Zhao Hu smiled and said, "Scholar, no need to rush, I'm here now. Are you afraid he'll run away? However, after I've solved this heart problem, maybe we can have a drinking contest again. Besides, since Little Han has come to the inn, I'll ask him to take a look at your old cold leg later. I heard Old Cui say that Little Han is also very skilled in treating this stubborn disease. If he really can help you solve that old problem, you old fellow should remember to invite me to drink more good wine!"

  Seeing Liu Gang's curious expression, Choi Jin-san continued: "If General Liu's frostbite is the same as our medical term, there shouldn't be a big problem. In South Korea, Little Han cured a member of the Li family with this type of illness in just three days, and so far, it hasn't recurred."

  However, I heard that Xiao Han said that this type of illness is a chronic condition and his treatment has been quite effective. But more importantly, after the patient recovers, they also need to strengthen their daily self-care. As long as they take good care of themselves, it's possible that General Liu won't suffer from this illness again in the future."

  When a group of old people heard that Han Ankang not only could cure the stubborn disease of cold legs, but also had certain ways to treat high blood pressure and coronary heart disease that often afflict the elderly. They also felt that this time, they might be lucky enough to get rid of these chronic diseases that even experts at the dry goods store couldn't cure, thanks to the blessings of this old commander.

  After resting for a night, Zhao Hu and others got up the next day to find that Han Ankang had not come out yet. A group of old comrades who were also waiting for treatment were undoubtedly worried that this young divine doctor might have some problems.

  Only Cui Zhen Shan was clear, Han An Kang seemed to understand some Taoist qigong techniques. Yesterday's treatment of Zhao Hu should have consumed a lot, and for the time being, he might not be able to recover, which would naturally take a little longer to meditate and cultivate.

  However, he didn't mention that Han Ankang understood the art of refining Qi. He just smiled and comforted these worried old men. When Han Ankang treated him in South Korea for the first time, there was also a day when he didn't go out. As long as they gave Han Ankang a little more recovery time, he believed it wouldn't be long before he appeared.

  As a result, another day passed, and by the evening, all these old men sat down on the first floor where Han Ankang lived to drink tea and chat. The bodyguard who had been waiting at Han Ankang's door heard footsteps coming from inside the room. Just as they suspected whether Han Ankang was done resting or not, the door that had been closed for a whole day finally opened from the inside.

  Looking at this young doctor whose complexion has returned to normal, the bodyguard at the door respectfully said: "Dr. Han, have you rested well?"

  Just took a look at the time, and I knew that he had been sitting for a whole day. It seems that this cultivation is not just an empty phrase. His current state, has only just entered the refining stage of Qi, and yet he can sit for a whole day. If his state becomes even higher in the future, then the time needed to recover from meditation won't be even longer.

  For the bodyguards' respect, Han Ankang naturally saw it and smiled: "Trouble you guys, by the way, where's Old Choi?"

  The bodyguard hastily replied, "The clan leader and General Zhao have already arrived after dinner. Because they are worried about you, they asked us to guard the door. I don't know if we need to instruct the kitchen here to prepare some food for you?"

  Facing the bodyguard's proposal, Han Ankang, who had been practicing for a day, also felt a little hungry and didn't refuse, saying: "Then trouble you to inform the chef here to get some light food ingredients for me. I'll go downstairs to greet Old Choi and the others first, and when dinner is ready, remember to call me. Thanks!"

  The bodyguard, visibly moved by Han Ankang's politeness, said: "Doctor Han, you're too polite! I'll have someone prepare dinner for you right away, please wait a moment!"

  After saying these words, the two bodyguards quickly led Han Ankang downstairs and said a few words to Cui Zhen-shan. The head of the Cui family nodded, and the two bodyguards quickly withdrew from the living room on the first floor to prepare dinner for Han Ankang.

  Most of the people living here are old generals who have retired from their military posts. They looked calm and walked over to greet Cui Zhen Shan and Zhao Hu, feeling that Han Ankang's temperament was very steady. Especially when facing these old generals in the army, he did not show too much restraint, and his conversation was also polite and courteous.

  He is indeed a rare young man!

  Zhao Hu, who was in charge of introducing both sides, naturally didn't forget to introduce the people sitting here who had worked with Han Ankang in the past. Upon learning that these people were at least retired generals from high-ranking positions in the military, Han Ankang still showed respect for these old generals. He didn't put on any airs as a great doctor just because he was Zhao Hu's attending physician.

  At least Han Ankang is clear that practicing medicine and being a person are similar in some ways, but there are still some differences to be made! Moreover, the medical skills he currently possesses are largely due to good fortune, so he naturally doesn't want to squander this capital and luck. Maintaining the original intention and integrity of a doctor is what Han Ankang thinks is most worth cherishing!
