“I can’t take it,” Wang Yao hurriedly said. He could not accept the gift from the family.

“Please accept it.” After finishing the conversation, Wu Tongxing put the gift box down and left.

“What?” Wang Yao opened it. “This is?”

It was too precious. It was a medical book called “The Source of Diseases.” It was a medical book from the Sui Dynasty. It was very famous and almost an antique.

“I cannot take it! You, wait a moment.” Wang Yao moved quickly to the courtyard door like a flash. He then moved to the car just as it started up like a flash again.

Knocking on the window, he returned the book. Then, he took a step back to the clinic.

He was so fast. Song Ruiping and Su Xiaoxue were both surprised. His speed was like a ghost. He disappeared in a blink of the eye.

“He masters in martial arts?” Song Ruiping was shocked.

“Yes.” Chen Ying once mentioned this to her, but Song Ruiping hadn’t cared at that time. She hadn’t thought his achievement was so marvelous.

“Sir is so amazing!” Su Xiaoxue’s eyes sparkled like the stars in the sky.

“This is?” Wu Tongxing looked at the gift box in his hand. The person that gave it to him was already gone by the time he looked up. It had only been a few seconds.

“Can you see him?” he asked the driver.

“Yes, he is very fast. He must master the profound martial arts,” the driver said.

As a driver for these people, driving was a must. At the same time, he needed to be able to do other things. For example, such people usually were fighting masters and part-time bodyguards.

“Supreme!” Wu Tongxing sighed. “It’s just that the gift was not accepted. What can I do about it?”

“Director, why don’t we come back again in the afternoon?” the driver asked.

“OK.” He would not give up until he achieved his goal.

“Maybe you could try the way the Su family did,” the driver suggested.

In the clinic, Su Xiaoxue was happy to talk to Wang Yao.

“Where to play?” Wang Yao really couldn’t think of the right place.

If she was his relative, he had several places to take her to visit. But, she was different. She was a guest who came from thousands of miles away. She had to go to a good place. Lianshan County had no such place. There was a city in Haiqu, but the timing was not suitable.

“Well, Xiaoxue, we should go.” Song Ruiping saw Wang Yao’s embarrassment. She knew that this small town had no place to play.

The three of them left. They did not follow the script. The car was not driving fast.

“Isn’t Xiaoxue happy?” Song Ruiping smiled and asked her daughter.

“I am very happy,” Su Xiaoxue said.

“This is not Jing. It is only a small mountain town. There are really not many interesting places,” Song Ruiping said. “If we continue to stay here, we will only make Dr. Wang feel embarrassed. We can come out to relax and make sure your body has no problems. It is already very good.”

“Yes.” Su Xiaoxue was content. She was not unhappy. She was just a little disappointed. Happy times always passed quickly.

When the car exited the mountain village, they found Wu Tongxing’s car was parked by the roadside, and he was beckoning to them.

“Let’s find a place to park,” Song Ruiping said.

The car stopped. Wu Tongxing got out of his car. And, so did Song Ruiping.

“There is something troublesome, sister,” he said. “Let’s meet somewhere and have a talk.”

“OK,” Song Ruiping said.

Thirty minutes later, they met in a tea house in Lianshan County.

“I really can’t help,” Song Ruiping said.

It sounded simple to ask Wang Yao to help to see a patient from another family, but she understood Wang Yao a little bit through their contact in Jing. Even if he could help because of wanting to give her face, if he was unwilling to help, it might affect their relationship. What’s more, he might not think of giving her face.

“Sister Chen Ying, What are my mom and Uncle Wu talking about? Is it related to Mr. Wang?” Su Xiaoxue asked curiously in another room.

“Old Mr. Wu is very sick. The Director wants to ask Mr. Wang to make a house call, but he did not agree,” Chen Ying said. “There was one time in Jing

Wu Tongxing asked the lady to come and ask for him.”

“Mr. Wang doesn’t want to go to Jing, right?” Su Xiaoxue asked.

“Well, he doesn’t really want to go,” Chen Ying said. “Rather, he doesn’t want to have too much contact with a big family like yours.”

“Why?” Su Xiaoxue listened intently.

“That would limit his freedom,” Chen Ying said.

After Su Xiaoxue listened for a moment, she understood. She was a very intelligent person and knew what Chen Ying meant. Jing, in fact, was a big cage.

“Sister Chen Ying, do you think Mr. Wang might need someone to help him?” Su Xiaoxue suddenly asked.

“Hmm?” Chen Ying was shocked. “What do you mean?”

“He is a doctor. He can’t do anything himself,” Su Xiaoxue said. “Do you think he might need someone to help?”

This is not good! Chen Ying immediately understood that the little princess beside her might have another idea. And, it was an amazing idea. No one in the Su family would agree on the idea that she could come into this small mountain village. It would become a story of a princess that fell in with the folk.

But, she did not say it. It would better to go back and tell her mother.

Wu Tongxing and Song Ruiping did not talk long.

“Sorry to make you feel troublesome, sister,” he said.

“I’ll try my best,” she replied.

When they came out from the teahouse, they met another group of people entering the teahouse.

“Oh, you are beautiful!” One of the men in his 40s was sighing. One was mighty in spirit and heroic bearing. The other one was beautiful like a fairy. They’d never seen such beautiful people in Lianshan County.

He felt his heart beat. He wanted to come forward to say hello to them. A figure blocked him. His eyes were cold as a knife.

“Man, you are in my way,” the man in his 40s said.

“Go!” The words were cold, just like the weather.

There were always some people in the world who thought they were capable. It was because they hadn’t seen the outside world, just like the sparrows hadn’t seen a phoenix.

What! The man fell to the ground, covering his stomach. He looked very bad. The fellows beside him rushed up to help. They had never met someone who fought like they were 10 people.

The two families exited the teahouse. The people left inside were crying. Soon, the police arrived. The middle-aged man accompanying Wu Tongxing took out some documents and said a few words. The policemen, who had some momentum, were immediately spiritless.

“Let’s find a place to have a meal and then go to the mountain village,” Wu Tongxing said.

It was already noon, but Wang Yao did not rush to leave. He was studying a few pages of paper on the table. They were the examination and diagnosis materials Wu Tongxing had given him.

He has read it once and then basically remembered it. With his current memory ability, as long as he wanted, he could completely remember it to a certain degree. After remembering them, he wrote them all down again.

He did not want to go to Jing for the time being, but it did not mean that he was not interested in the case. In fact, he really wanted to have a try. Based on the information available in his hands, he set out to develop a treatment plan.

His phone soon began to ring. He looked up. It was already after 1 p.m. It was time to have a meal.

After eating at home, he left and saw two cars parked outside the clinic. They were the same as the ones in the morning.

“Again?” Wang Yao muttered.

“Hello, Dr. Wang,” Wu Tongxing said.

“Hello, Mr. Wu,” Wang Yao said.

He was a guest. Plus, his attitude was good, so Wang Yao let them into the clinic.

“Mr. Wu, as I said it before. I have no plans to go to Jing for the time being,” Wang Yao said.

“Ah, I see. The thing is, can you prescribe medicine for this patient?” Wu Tongxing asked.

“I have not seen the patient, so I have not diagnosed it. I could not prescribe the medicine based on these test results. No.” Wang Yao listened and refused him decisively.

After hearing his words, Wu Tongxing was silent for a moment. He then finally revealed the true purpose of the trip. “So, is there a harmless warm-up medicine that could properly improve the patient’s current situation?”

He came to seek medicine that could save people’s life, even if they were almost dead.

“Warm supplement medicine?” Wang Yao did have such a prescription.

He had two doses of medicine. One was the ordinary medicine to consolidate the body foundation, and the other was the re-gather soup.

“I have a recipe here. You can take it back and try it.” When he spoke, Wang Yao wrote the ordinary prescription and gave it to Tong Xing.

Wu Tongxing wanted to say, I don’t want this! But, he couldn’t. Instead, he was just happy to get the prescription. It was progress after all. “What about the price?”

“Since you came from far, forget it.” Wang Yao smiled.

He did not value this prescription too much, even though it was not available on the market. “The medical materials must grow enough years.”

“I see, thank you,” Wu Tongxing said.

Before he left, Wu Tongxing left the ancient book and expressed his gratitude. This time, Wang Yao did not refuse. It could be seen as the cost of the prescription.

Once out of the medical hall, Wu Tongxing sighed a little.

“It’s still not very good?” the driver asked.

“Go,” Wu Tongxing said.

“To where, Director?” the driver asked.

“Go back to Jing,” Wu Tongxing said.

He returned to Jing with an ordinary prescription. The medicine would have an effect, but it was definitely not so obvious.

“What are you saying? Did Xiaoxue really say so?” Song Ruiping was surprised to hear Chen Ying’s words.

“Yes,” Chen Ying said.

“Oh, that girl!” Song Ruiping exclaimed. “You will arrange it right away when we return to Jing.”

The cold wind was whistling as night fell. On Nanshan Hill, the lights were a bit like beans when seen from afar.

Pear grass could be used to treat ulcer. Lingshanji could dispel evil spirits. The lungs were one of the five internal organs.

Wang Yao wrote while he was thinking about ways to treat the disease. Under the help of medication, acupuncture, supplemental massage, and neixi, he was 80 percent confident that he could cure the patient.

Although it was thousands of miles away, he could indeed prescribe medicine from the village. Until now, the grass he had planted had several drugs that were overbearing, but only Xian Qiuluo was poisonous. Its poison was in its smell, juice, and flowers. But, all of them could be detoxified by drinking the water boiled with the flowers.

“Well, almost finished,” he said to himself. He sorted out the plans, turned off the lights, and went to sleep.

The next morning, the cock crowed. The sky was light, but the sun was not rising. It was also cloudy.

At 9 a.m., Du Feng came to the clinic. His medicine had been used up, but he felt that he had recovered quite well. While taking the medication, he did not take the Western medicine from the hospital. He felt better than before.

“Is it used up?” Wang Yao asked.

“Yes,” Du Feng said.

“Let me check you first,” Wang Yao said.

After some diagnosis, he asked Du Feng to take off his shirt and lie down.

Wang Yao began to insert the needle in Du Feng’s chest and abdomen. That was where a considerable part of key acupuncture points were. He inserted the needle steadily.

“Yeah!” Du Feng snorted.

“Painful?” Wang Yao asked.

“Yes,” Du Feng said.

“Is it like being burned?” Wang Yao asked.

“Yes.” Du Feng did feel pain. It felt like he was stabbed by a burning knife. It was very painful.

Wang Yao did not stop.

…

In Jing…

“Sister, are you in a better mood?” Guo Zhenghe asked.

“It’s better.” Guo Sirou was somewhat absent-minded.

“Sister, I want to tell you something,” Guo Zhenghe said.

“What is it?” Guo Sirou asked.

“I want to marry Xiaoxue,” he said.

“What!” Guo Sirou looked at him sitting opposite of her. He had a big smile, like the sun. “She has not yet recovered completely.”

“Almost. I have already asked Chen. Within 10 days, she should be able to stand up and move,” Guo Zhenghe said.
