My testicles were swollen at the same time as my hemorrhoids flared up. It was truly a case of misfortunes never coming singly, a situation that brings tears to even the most valiant heart. Well, that's roughly the idea.

The monks have now made a name for themselves in the medical team, and they would probably be very happy if there were female medics in the team.

However, the problem is... there are no girls in the medical team, and not only are there no girls, but they are all old men.

The army doctor was male, and the medics were also male. Hmm, one of the medics, a martial monk, looked familiar at first glance because he looked exactly like Wang Aiguo. Both were over 1.8 meters tall and weighed over 200 kilograms. What's even more outrageous is that these two fat guys actually had the same criminal-like face.

This made even the martial monks sigh; indeed, ugly people are all alike, especially the extremely ugly ones.

Of course, the monk could never say these things. If he did, given his current condition, Wang Aiguo could take on three of him with one hand.

However, the monk, being a trained master, found himself unable to use either the front or back stances effectively. Instead, he struck a pose reminiscent of Little Dragon Girl sleeping on a rope. Lying on his side with his hand supporting his head, he exuded an air of nonchalance, genuinely appearing like a wise and enlightened sage.

On his second day at the medical ward, a fellow monk moved into the bed next to his. The monk was quite curious as he had come in wearing a hospital gown.

However, the monk was a shy boy, and even though he was very curious, he didn't ask. But the other person, seeing the monk's appearance, asked in surprise, "Brother, you look like you've trained before?"

"Of course, I'm from Shaolin Temple," the martial monk chuckled.

Upon hearing the name Shaolin Temple, the other party immediately became excited and rushed over to shake hands with the monk.

"Wow, this really is Shaolin Temple! Do you know martial arts? You definitely do, right? You can tell right away."

The monk looked a little embarrassed as he looked at the hand of the guy next to him, because he was currently using one hand to support his head and the other to eat a banana.

After thinking for a while, the monk finally put the banana in his mouth, wiped his other hand on his body, and then shook hands with the other person.

The two people shaking hands, one standing and the other lying down in a particularly seductive way, honestly, this scene looks a bit eerie.

However, the man opposite him didn't seem to care about the monk's "flirtatious" manner, after all, in his opinion, capable people all have tempers. So he warmly shook the monk's hand and said, "Hello, my name is Jiang Tao, the character for 'work' with the water radical, and the character for 'longevity' with the water radical."

"Hello, hello, you can call me Monk." The monk awkwardly forced a smile and said.

After exchanging greetings, the monk suddenly felt something was off. What had that guy on the other side just said?

The character for "work" (工) with the water radical (氵) and the character for "longevity" (寿) with the water radical (氵) are both offensive and defensive, right?

Just as the monk was looking puzzled, Wang Aiguo was serving him food in the dining hall.

Just as Wang Aiguo was finishing serving the food, Shen Long suddenly appeared mysteriously beside him.

"three hundred."

"Holy crap!" Wang Aiguo jumped in fright and almost threw away the food he had just gotten.

Turning around and seeing it was Shen Long, Wang Aiguo could only smile wryly and say, "Captain Shen, could you please not suddenly appear behind me? What if I'm like a martial monk and turn around to give you a fatal kick?"

"You're kidding me. I've already figured it out. With that kind of guy, the monk can only take the 'Mutilate Kick,' he can't possibly use it." Shen Long said confidently.

Wang Aiguo could only chuckle at this, never expecting the monk to expose his secret of not being a martial arts master so quickly.

Shrugging, Wang Aiguo continued, "Alright, let's not discuss that now. Did Captain Shen want to see me about something?"

"Well, I've noticed you often talk about wanting to get the Outstanding Soldier award, and I've also seen how hard you work at it, so I mentioned it to Grandpa Bi..."

Before Shen Long could finish speaking, Wang Aiguo excitedly asked, "So Grandpa Bi agreed?"

"Grandpa Bi refused," Shen Long said without hesitation.

Wang Aiguo: "..."

"Brother, why are you telling me such bad news so confidently? Are you deliberately trying to hurt me?" Wang Aiguo said speechlessly.

Shen Long shook his head and said, "Of course not, I'd be happy to help you. I've basically learned about your situation, and from what I've seen recently, you've been working really hard. If possible, I'd really like to give you an outstanding grade. But the problem is, Captain Bi has too much prejudice against you, so unless you make some particularly significant contribution, I'm afraid there's not much hope."

Wang Aiguo chuckled again. A particularly significant contribution? Building a rocket?

"Captain Shen, what do you mean by a particularly significant contribution? I led everyone to plan ahead for the training camp, doesn't that count?" Wang Aiguo said speechlessly.

Shen Long nodded and said, "That counts, but you blew up the building's sewage pipes before, so this huge contribution is considered to cancel out the demerit. According to what I learned from Captain Bi, the so-called huge contribution should be something like being first in running, first in military competitions, or something like lifting artillery shells or throwing grenades."

"If I had that ability, would I have been forced to join the army?" Wang Aiguo said weakly, rolling his eyes.

And that's the truth; he joined the army because of his poor physical fitness. As for things like lifting artillery shells and throwing grenades, although he was somewhat confident in his strength, with monsters like the martial monks around, it had nothing to do with him.

"I've considered all of these things, and in the end, I think the only path that's right for you is technological innovation."

"Technological innovation???" After Shen Long finished speaking, Wang Aiguo was stunned. This term was a bit new to him; it was the first time he had ever heard it.

Shen Long nodded and said, "Yes, so-called technological innovation is actually about improving existing tools or inventing new and practical projects. I guess you don't need to consider physical fitness, so I think you can think about it from that perspective and see if there's anything you can do."

After saying this, Shen Long felt a sense of relief. To be honest, he had done everything in his power to complete Wang Weihua's mission. He had thought about it for many days before finally coming up with this plan.

However, this method is really not a proper method, since a large team might only come up with a technological innovation every few years.

Technological innovation is mostly the domain of academies or technical officers; asking an ordinary recruit to do it is indeed asking too much of him. But so far, this is the only major contribution Shen Long can think of.

So, with the thought of trying anything as a last resort, Shen Long still told Wang Aiguo the news.

He initially thought Wang Aiguo would dismiss it, but to his surprise...
