Zhong Nanshan: Guardian of Life

Chapter 6: An Urchin in Lingnan
From [-] to [-], Zhong Shifan went to the University of Cincinnati School of Medicine in the United States to study virology.During his advanced studies, Zhong Shifan discovered that bacteria have a protective effect on a virus. He observed for the first time that the viability of the virus was protected because the bacteria multiplied and consumed oxygen.This discovery was valued by virologist Ab Sabin at the University of Cincinnati at the time and HA Howe, a virologist at Johns Hopkins University in the United States.His paper on this discovery was hailed as an excellent paper by Veche, dean of the Institute of Pediatrics at the University of Cincinnati.In addition, Zhong Shifan also found that fetal mice can be used as an ideal medium for virus growth.After Zhong Shifan returned to China, he continued to do research work.

On August [-] and [-], [-], the U.S. dropped atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, respectively.On August [-], [-], the Soviet Union declared war on Japan and sent troops to Northeast China on the [-]th.At noon on August [-], [-], the Emperor of Japan announced his surrender by radio.On September [-], [-], the Japanese foreign minister formally signed the instrument of surrender on board the USS Missouri.On September [-], Neiji Okamura, commander-in-chief of the Japanese invaders, presented the instrument of surrender to representatives of the Chinese government in Nanjing.The Anti-Japanese War and the Second World War have officially ended.

After the Anti-Japanese War ended, the Central Hospital moved from Guiyang to Guangzhou as planned.At the end of [-], Zhong Shifan, who was the vice president of the Central Hospital at the time, moved east with the hospital to Guangzhou with his family in a car.The car Zhong Shifan's family was riding in was the ambulance of the Central Hospital.The hospital moved, and the ambulance had to be transported to the new location, of course.The family bumped along the road in a hospital ambulance during the day, and lived in a roadside inn at night.The inn was simple and there were many mosquitoes and bugs. They slept with the mosquitoes and bugs and trekked hard for eight days and nights before arriving in Guangzhou.

Although it has gone through the years of the Anti-Japanese War, compared with Guiyang, Guangzhou was slightly less devastated by the war, and the urban style still remains.Zhong Shifan's family settled down in Guangzhou and lived in a three-story red brick building with an independent courtyard in the southeast area of ​​Lingnan University.After arriving in Guangzhou, Zhong Shifan served as the dean and director of the Department of Pediatrics of the Central Hospital, and was employed as a professor of Pediatrics at the School of Medicine of Lingnan University.Lingnan University, formerly known as Gezhi College, was founded by the American Presbyterian Church in Guangzhou in [-].In July [-], with the approval of the Guangdong government, the school was taken over by the Chinese and officially changed its name to Lingnan University.Lingnan University has an affiliated primary school and an affiliated middle school.When he arrived in Guangzhou, Zhong Nanshan studied in the Primary School Affiliated to Lingnan University.

In Guangzhou, Zhong Nanshan has watched movies. He likes to watch martial arts movies the most. The knights in the movies are full of courage, chivalrous and benevolent.He became more daring, and even moved in the direction of adventure.There is a yard and grass in front of the building of Zhong’s house, and there is a bamboo forest behind the building. The bamboo grows luxuriantly, and you can see it through the window.As soon as Zhong Nanshan moved into the small building, he discovered that an old bamboo had grown to the edge of the window sill upstairs. This old bamboo was thick and strong, and it was like a natural slide.While the adults were not at home, Zhong Nanshan climbed up the old bamboo from the window sill upstairs, and then slid down the bamboo.If the adults know about this, they will definitely be scolded. Zhong Nanshan only dares to play secretly when the adults are not around.Later, he took a fancy to the drainage pipes on the outer wall of the house, and he also slid down to the ground by grabbing the drainage pipes.In this way, this old bamboo and this drainage pipe became Zhong Nanshan's secret slide. When the adults are away, as long as he is in the mood, he will start his "feat" of young knights.

His boldness and curiosity never faltered.He and a group of boys had discovered early on that the bamboo forest behind their home was a great place for adventure.The bamboo forest is dense, no matter how noisy these boys are inside, the adults outside the bamboo forest cannot see it.Zhong Nanshan and the group of boys played happily in the bamboo forest with confidence and boldness.

Zhong Nanshan's "Knight Adventure" continues.He has "enemies".Teenagers are young and energetic, and if they disagree with each other, they will end up "resentment".In fact, those "resentments" are trivial things, but the young men have linked these "resentments" with their own face.They are willing to fight for face.

When he was fourteen or fifteen years old, Zhong Nanshan grew up a bit and his body became stronger. He had the courage to find his "enemies" to resolve his "grudges".He invited "Chou Jia" to "duel" in the bamboo forest.He made a careful "duel" plan, but what he didn't expect was that his classmates quietly told the "enemy" father of his plan. The father of "Chou Jia" was stunned when he heard that, he hurried to find Zhong Shifan and told him that these children were going to mess around.

Zhong Shifan called Zhong Nanshan over.His father's face was gloomy, and Zhong Nanshan was stunned by such a solemn and majestic appearance.Zhong Shifan looked at Zhong Nanshan and said very sternly that he knew that Zhong Nanshan wanted to fight, and he wanted to "duel".He didn't allow Zhong Nanshan to go out the next day, saying that if Zhong Nanshan dared to leave the house, don't recognize him as his father.

Father was really angry, and very angry.Zhong Nanshan had never seen his father so strict and angry. He was very annoyed when word of the "duel" got out.He had already issued a letter of war to the "enemies", and even told a few good friends around him, but he couldn't go out the next day, so he couldn't fight at all. Isn't this just a coward who ran away and made people laugh?It's so embarrassing.But no matter how embarrassing it is, it's better than his father not recognizing himself.Zhong Nanshan thought about it, but he still didn't dare to disobey his father's order.

A few good friends came to Zhong Nanshan's home, and they came to cheer for Zhong Nanshan in the "duel".Zhong Shifan and Liao Yueqin did not let these children see Zhong Nanshan, but only told them that Zhong Nanshan had gone out.

The "duel" that has been called to fight lacks a protagonist, so this absurd "duel" can only be left alone.

This was another surprise move.The naughty and bold Zhong Nanshan made Zhong Shifan and Liao Yueqin worry a lot.
