My dream connects to three thousand years later.

Chapter 41 Inspection

"You want to find some information about traditional Chinese medicine, but you don't know any experts in the field, so you'd like me to introduce you to some?"

"That's how it is!"

"You should know that our school doesn't have a Traditional Chinese Medicine department! If you're looking for someone in the Clinical Medicine department, I can try to find a way for you, Traditional Chinese Medicine..."

"I checked, and it's less than three kilometers from Jinling University of Chinese Medicine! It's a nationally renowned TCM college. Could you contact someone there?"

"???" The counselor put down the homework in her hand, stared at Chu Zhu, fell into deep thought, and finally asked, "Do you have some misunderstanding about me?"

Where could he possibly contact someone at the neighboring Traditional Chinese Medicine University for Chu Zhu?!
No, why would Chu Zhu think he has connections in this area?
He's just a counselor, not a professor of medicine!

"Can't you do it?" Chu Zhu raised an eyebrow.

"...It's not entirely impossible!" The counselor pursed his lips. If it were a regular student, he would have already sent them somewhere else to cool off—

But the person in front of us is the future light of the Chinese people that Zhang Song mentioned, and the principal is paying close attention to him.

"I'll put in a call! But you must have something important to say, right? What exactly is it?" The counselor backed down, but still drew a line. If it was just about hanging out, he definitely wouldn't agree.

"...You want to find some Chinese herbs? What do you mean you have a Chinese herbal medicine prescription? No!" The counselor was horrified. "You dare to prepare medicine without proper verification of this prescription? What's the use?"

Chu Zhu remained noncommittal, simply watching the counselor quietly.

"Okay, how about this..." The counselor didn't dare to refuse at this moment. After all, if it really involved taking medicine, then she definitely had to ask. "Tell me your questions, and I'll ask someone to see if I can get them forwarded to the experts and professors at Jinling University of Traditional Chinese Medicine next door!"

"Okay." Chu Zhu organized her thoughts and described the specific medicinal properties and general shapes of the remaining four Chinese herbs. On a whim, Chu Zhu even picked up a pen and sketched their shapes on the paper with a few strokes.

"You drew this," the counselor said, examining it repeatedly with admiration. "Beautiful! I never knew you had such a talent."

Chu Zhu was stunned for a moment, almost forgetting that in the dream world, when he was young, he had developed many impressive skills due to the unlimited number of resets.

Before becoming a transcendent being, my dream memories were hazy, so I couldn't use the skills I had honed! But now my memories are synchronized... hmm.

Chu Zhu learned painting from Xu Zihong, a master of traditional Chinese painting and literature who lived in Jinghai City.

While not quite unparalleled, Chu Zhu's talent was still exceptional. Xu Zihong once praised him, saying that if he was a once-in-thirty-years genius in traditional Chinese painting, then Chu Zhu's talent was a once-in-a-century level... Of course, the reason for such high praise was that Chu Zhu was constantly resetting his skills, resulting in an astonishingly rapid pace of progress.

Even if we discount it by half, it's absolutely no problem to say that Chu Zhu is a top-notch young figure in the Great Qian Dynasty's Chinese painting world within the Dream World.

However, it is obviously unrealistic to expect the counselor to have much artistic talent or to be able to see how exquisite or profound his casual drawings are!

"Alright, I've contacted a professor in the medical field at our school! I'll have him ask someone else... But I still have to say, don't try any medications randomly! Be careful not to cause problems." The counselor was still a little uneasy. The person in front of him was clearly the principal's future darling, and if something happened to him—just thinking about that scene made the counselor want to scream.

"I have the answer, please forward it to me via WeChat!" Chu Zhu waved her hand, and just as she turned around, her counselor's phone rang.

"?? Principal! Wait..." The counselor jumped to her feet upon seeing the name in the notes, her face showing surprise and astonishment. She quickly recovered and instinctively said to Chu Zhu, "Don't panic! It's possible..."

The counselor answered the phone and held it to her ear, "Yes, yes... What a coincidence! He's right next to me... Chu Zhu, the principal is looking for you! I don't know why, but I can't get through to you on the phone."

Chu Zhu: "..."

It's probably because his phone is on silent!
Silently taking the phone, Chu Zhu said, "This is Chu Zhu!"

"You're at school right now, aren't you?" Li Quanyuan's voice came through the phone. "Come to my office now. You should know where my office is, right? If not, have your counselor take you there!"

"Someone from the State Sports Administration has come?" Chu Zhu realized something, after all, he had already made his point.

"I guess so..." Li Quanyuan paused briefly, then decided to be more specific, "To be precise, people from both the national and provincial levels came."

"Actually, according to the standard procedure, you should first go to the provincial sports bureau to get a test result, pass it, then join the provincial bureau, and then be recommended to the national team... But! You need to do this as quickly as possible, so let's leave it at that."

Although Li Quanyuan was kind and approachable, he held a very high position. When he spoke, coupled with Zhang Song's existing connections in this field, it could indeed save a lot of tedious steps... Moreover, track and field events certainly carried that weight!
After hanging up the phone, Chu Zhu handed it back to the counselor, saying, "Lead the way."

"?" The counselor's cheek twitched visibly as he stared at Chu Zhu, hesitating several times as if he wanted to say something but couldn't. He had always been puzzled as to why Chu Zhu could be so calm in the face of such a situation. He hadn't been as calm as Chu Zhu when facing the principal before.

Not to mention, those are people from the national bureau, track and field champions... Even if there's only a possibility of that, it's still a meteoric rise!
Although the school they attend is quite good, the job market is so tough right now! If they could really become track and field champions... it would be like catching a ride on the fast track of life!
Though she had a thousand words in her heart, the counselor ultimately said nothing and led the way. But at the same time, she wondered to herself, was the principal's earlier guess correct? Was Chu Zhu really the heir to some super-large corporation?

If that's the case, why hasn't he heard a single word about it...?

After thinking it over, the counselor glanced at Chu Zhu without showing any emotion and sighed, "You're really good at hiding things!"

Chu Zhu: "...?"

Principal's office.

Coach Yuan Qiang from the State Sports Administration and Coach Guo Jun from the Provincial Sports Bureau looked at Chu Zhu with strange expressions.

"Excuse me." Yuan Qiang greeted him, and after receiving permission, he squatted down and squeezed Chu Zhu's leg muscles, his brows furrowing deeper and deeper. Finally, he said, "Let's skip the formalities! Let's get started... Um, first a urine test, then various other examinations, and then..."
