"Is this the medicinal herb?"
Behind the mess hall, on a row of fire stoves, medicinal soup with Kapuda herb was being boiled. Li Yuxiu and the cookhouse's Niu Pangzi were responsible for the cooking.
"Yes."
Looking at Gu Yingbo holding the crimson Kapuda herb, Wan Yunting nodded with a smile, "This was discovered by Li Daitai and me from a doctor among the indigenous people in the local area. After my attempts, this herb can suppress the Red Devil Virus infection by 100%."
Gu Yingbo then looked at the medicinal soup boiling in a clay pot, smelling the aroma of the boiling herbs. He could tell how many medicinal ingredients were added to this pot.
Although Gu Yingbo later studied Western medicine and became a virus expert, he was born into a family of Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioners. His father, Gu Yuanbai, had instilled TCM into him since childhood, so it was in his bones and could not be lost.
Gu Yingbo's face was filled with excitement. He turned to look at Wan Yunting, revealing admiration and respect without any reservation, and said with a smile, "Yunting, you are truly a genius. I never expected that the first person to discover a cure for the Red Devil Virus would be you, and using our Chinese medicine."
"Haha, this time you've truly let the whole world see our Chinese medicine!"
Wan Yunting shook his head and smiled, pointing to Li Yuxiu and the others busy boiling the medicine in the distance. He said with a smile, "It's not my personal credit; it's also thanks to Li Daitai and everyone's help."
Gu Yingbo also looked at Li Yuxiu over there and said with a smile, "She is the daughter of the esteemed Elder Li Tiangui. She is a calling card for our Chinese medicine overseas, making outstanding contributions to the promotion of Chinese medicine culture, and is also a rare talent."
Wan Yunting nodded with a smile. At this moment, Huang Hongying, Lin Dongxiang, and Professor Ji walked over, smiling, "Doctor Wan, why aren't you resting more?"
"I've rested enough."
Wan Yunting greeted them and then asked Huang Hongying, "Dean Huang, do you feel any abnormalities in your body now?"
"No."
Huang Hongying shook her head and smiled, "My body has recovered completely and is normal."
Wan Yunting nodded and said, "This indicates that the medicine has no sequelae on the human body."
"Yes."
Lin Dongxiang said with a smile, "During our research on Kapuda herb recently, we extracted its red pigment and wanted to develop a vaccine to directly treat the Red Devil Virus. However, it will take some time to succeed."
Professor Ji nodded and also said with a smile, "So, for now, it still relies on our Chinese medicine."
Wan Yunting nodded. Seeing Li Yuxiu approaching, he asked, "By the way, have you gone to the slums to test the medicine again?"
"No."
Li Yuxiu said, "We went before, but we were attacked, so we didn't go."
"You can go now."
At this moment, Luo Guowei also came over and said with a smile, "Morton's mercenaries have been destroyed by the United Nations. Now you can go to the slums to test the medicine on the infected."
"That's great, let's go tomorrow then," Lin Dongxiang said happily.
Everyone nodded in agreement...
After all, the medicine was only being tested and treated on the infected soldiers at the base. It had not yet been tested and treated on the infected locals in the slums.
This was because the physical conditions of Asians and Africans are different. Only after testing the medicine could it be truly proven whether Kapuda herb could comprehensively and completely control and treat the Red Devil Virus infection.
Even Gu Yingbo was reluctant to return to the United Nations base with the company's virus team. Instead, he stayed at the base, constantly discussing the issues of Kapuda herb with Wan Yunting, which gave Gu Yingbo much inspiration.
The next day, Wan Yunting and Li Yuxiu got up early and boiled twenty doses of medicinal soup with Kapuda herb, which were put into thermos flasks.
At the same time, Huang Hongying and Lin Dongxiang, along with their newly developed drugs, went to the slum infection area of Niger City to test the medicine on the local infected people.
Escorted by Nie Xiaoyu and others, they were not attacked this time.
Currently, Morton's mercenary base in Tesali had been destroyed by the United Nations peacekeeping forces from various countries. However, Simon Rax managed to escape with a group of elite mercenaries, but they could no longer pose a significant threat.
Moreover, Simon Rax had no intention of avenging his boss Morton or Kabu. Now they just wanted to find another African country and rediscover their strength.
At this moment, on a Gobi Desert in the northwest of Tesali, several military off-road vehicles were driving. Jian Shisan, lying in the car, looked gloomy and sad. He had planned to capture Wan Yunting and hand him over to his godfather when Wan Yunting appeared in the Republic of Mali in Africa.
However, he not only failed to capture Wan Yunting but also lost his junior sister Bing Leng.
Now, Jian Shisan could only shamefully prepare to return to country H to confess his guilt to his godfather...
In the following period, Wan Yunting and Li Yuxiu kept shuttling back and forth between the peacekeeping forces' base and the slums of Niger City.
After testing the medicine on the local infected people in the infection area, Kapuda herb was naturally effective against the Red Devil Virus, and the trial was very successful!
Not only did it control the virus, but even severely ill patients who drank Kapuda medicinal soup could gradually recover from severe to moderate, then to mild, and finally to healthy.
At the United Nations base, a United Nations meeting was convened again.
This time, He Yongchang proudly said to the heads of the United Nations peacekeeping forces from various countries, "After the efforts of our medical team, our Chinese medicine has discovered a medicine that can completely cure patients infected with the Red Devil Virus."
"So, we have succeeded!"
At this moment, the heads of the peacekeeping forces from various countries present applauded He Yongchang.
The Secretary-General of the United Nations asked, "Minister He, who discovered the Kapuda herb?"
He Yongchang smiled and said, "It was our Chinese medicine doctors, Wan Yunting and Li Yuxiu, who discovered the Kapuda herb together and conducted the trial together, leading to success."
The head of the peacekeeping forces from Pakistan gave a thumbs up and said, "Chinese medicine is very powerful...!"
The heads of the peacekeeping forces from other countries also nodded in agreement, while He Yongchang's face was filled with pride and excitement, because this represented that Chinese medicine had officially been recognized by people all over the world.
That day, the United Nations issued a news report on how Chinese medicine treated the Red Devil Virus infection, and also interviewed Wan Yunting and Li Yuxiu about their discovery of Kapuda herb and the trial process.
Wan Yunting and Li Yuxiu's names instantly became famous throughout the African countries and European countries, and finally, the whole world knew about them and the Chinese divine doctors of Chinese medicine!
China, Beijing.
"Great, Senior Sister, Brother Yunting is going to be famous this time!"
Qi Miaomiao, at home, looked at her phone and saw the news published in China about Wan Yunting and Li Yuxiu's feats at the peacekeeping forces in the Republic of Mali in Africa, discovering Kapuda herb and treating the Red Devil Virus infection, which caused a sensation throughout China.
Now Douyin and major news outlets were publishing this news. In addition to the attention from the TCM circles, it was more of the concern from ordinary people.
This was because the breakthrough in the Red Devil Virus infection was not discovered by so-called Western medicine virus experts, but by our Chinese medicine!
Gu Luotang also held her phone, looking at the news, her face filled with joy, and said with a smile, "This is more than just fame. This time, Brother Yunting and Doctor Li have truly brought our Chinese medicine to the world!"
"Yes."
Qi Miaomiao sat down, her face full of pride, but then she said, "Why is Li Yuxiu there? When did she go to find Brother Yunting?"
Gu Luotang gave the girl a sideways glance, and said with a wry smile, "What are you thinking?"
Qi Miaomiao pouted and said, "I'm just afraid that Brother Yunting, this fickle person, will find us another elder sister!"
Gu Luotang covered her mouth and chuckled, giving Qi Miaomiao a glare. Then she saw her grandfather Gu Yuanbai and senior brother Du Hua return, and they said with a smile, "This time, Xiao Wan has brought honor to our Chinese medicine!"
"Yes."
Gu Luotang nodded and said with a smile, "When Brother Yunting returns, he will be able to smoothly enter the Chinese Medicine Association."
"Mmm."
Gu Yuanbai nodded, his face full of happiness.
He had been worried before that after clearing out the TCM parasites like the Liu and Xue families, there would still be people who opposed Wan Yunting returning to the Chinese Medicine Association to hold important positions.
Now that Wan Yunting had cured the Red Devil Virus infection with Chinese medicine in Africa, making the whole world aware of the achievements of Chinese medicine.
Therefore, Gu Yuanbai was no longer worried about anyone in the domestic TCM circle daring to oppose Wan Yunting.
At this moment, in the Gu Mansion.
"Alas..."
Gu Shiren, sitting in the pavilion in the backyard, also saw the news about Wan Yunting and Li Yuxiu. His old face showed a look of desolation.
"Dad, forgive my bluntness, but I'm afraid we can't stay in Beijing anymore!" his second son, Gu Zhongtang, said solemnly.
His eldest grandson, Gu Zhengqing, also frowned deeply.
Since the downfall of the Liu and Xue families, Gu Shiren had been working to strive for taking over the Chinese Medicine Association.
However, with Gu Yuanbai in power, and Wei Datong and Zhang Fenglin having arrived in Beijing to assist Gu Yuanbai in managing the Chinese Medicine Association,
Therefore, no matter how hard Gu Shiren tried, it would be very difficult to regain the say in the Chinese Medicine Association!
After all, the parasites from the Liu and Xue families had once brought the reputation of Chinese medicine to an extremely low point.
During Wan Yunting's absence from China, the people had become extremely disappointed with Chinese medicine, believing it was completely beyond hope.
Therefore, no matter how Gu Yuanbai and others promoted Chinese medicine during this period, it had almost no effect.
On the internet, some trolls who were already blackening Chinese medicine had been rampant during this time, spewing all sorts of criticism, vociferously supporting Western medicine, and posting threads that disparaged Chinese medicine, misleading many ordinary people.
However, today, Wan Yunting and Li Yuxiu in Mali had proven everything with Chinese medicine, and a frenzy instantly erupted in China.
News about Wan Yunting from the past was unearthed and trending again.
And those trolls who deliberately slandered Chinese medicine in the dark were instantly silenced and disappeared without a trace.
