Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Story of the Scout and the Snake

Ning Tao took the initiative to extend his hand to Fan Huaying, and said with a smile: "Mr. Fan, you are welcome, it is a pleasure to meet you."

This Fan Huaying gave him the impression that he was a person with a lot of connections, and even Ding Congjun wanted to give face. Such a person would not show favor to him for no reason, and must have his motives and purposes. But isn't the current world like this, how many people make friends without any motive or purpose? But it happened that he also needed to make a friend with a wide network like Fan Huaying, and of course he would not refuse the other party's offer.

Fan Huaying shook hands with Ning Tao, and praised: "Brother Ning, you are a well-deserved genius doctor. You have such high medical skills at such a young age. Your future achievements are limitless."

Ning Tao smiled, "Mr. Fan, we don't have to be polite. You are so polite, I am too embarrassed to ask you for help."

"What kind of medicinal materials do you want to buy, Brother Ning? Give me a list, and I'll help you figure it out," Fan Huaying said.

Ning Tao felt a little sudden, "Now?"

Fan Huaying said with a smile: "I want to make friends with you, Brother Ning. I overheard the conversation between you and Miss Jiang just now. I guess those medicinal materials must be very important to you. The business of friends is my business. If you Take my word for it, and leave it to me to handle it."

A look of embarrassment appeared on Ning Tao's face. He really wanted to hand over the list to Fan Huaying, but he didn't. It's not that he doesn't believe that Fan Huaying can't handle it, but that he has no money. People are so enthusiastic, it's the first time you deal with them, you can't take advantage of them in vain, right? What's more, that's not a small sum.

Fan Huaying's power of observation is not average. When Ning Tao showed an embarrassed look, he followed up and said, "I actually want to ask brother Ning to do me a favor. I don't know if brother Ning is willing to give me this face?"

"What kind of busy?" Ning Tao asked casually.

"Brother Ning, can you heal the burn?"

Ning Tao's heart moved, but his face remained calm, "It can be cured, where is the patient?"

A smile suddenly appeared on Fan Huaying's face, "I knew that I had made the right friend. My friend is not in Beidu, but I believe she will charter a plane to fly over as soon as I make a phone call, and we can meet at night at the earliest."

Ning Tao said: "Okay, let Brother Fan arrange it."

Now that we are already "friends", it would be too polite to call me Mr.

"I'm going to make a phone call." Fan Huaying said, nodded to Jiang Hao, and then walked out the door with her mobile phone.

Ning Tao looked at Fan Huaying's back, and Fan Huaying's body exuded colorful auras in his sight. He suspects that Fan Huaying is not an ordinary person, but Fan Huaying's innate talent is very ordinary now, without the aura released by spiritual power, he is not a cultivator.

Jiang Hao came close to Ning Tao's ear, and said in a low voice, "That Fan Huaying saw that you have no money to buy medicinal materials, so he proposed to let you treat some burn patients. If you don't have money, tell me, I have them here."

Her powers of observation are no weaker than Fan Huaying's.

Ning Tao smiled, "Isn't that good? I do him a favor, and he does me a favor. I don't owe him a favor, and he doesn't owe me a favor."

Jiang Hao frowned, "He wants you to treat burn patients. Burns are not other diseases. Even if you have excellent medical skills, you can't help it. Why don't you give him money and buy it with money."

Ning Tao said: "I know you are the friend who is worried that I can't cure Fan Huaying, but don't worry, since I dare to promise, I am sure. Also, do you think he is a person who is short of money? Just now, he actually He saw that I had no money, so he asked me to help him, he didn't want to embarrass me."

Only then did Jiang Hao understand, "So that's how it is."

At this time, a group of people came out from the room at the end of the corridor. The one walking in the front was none other than Ding Ye, who was chained to the bed by a group of famous doctors who couldn't even find out the cause of the disease. He walked steadily, his face was rosy, and he didn't look sick at all.

"Thank you, Doctor Ning." These were Ding Ye's first words, and he even reached out his hands to shake Ning Tao's hand when he walked in front of Ning Tao.

Ning Tao quickly stretched out his hands to hold Ding Ye's outstretched hands, "You are welcome, old man, if you want to thank Jiang, thank you, well, I came here because of her."

Ding Ye took a look at Jiang Hao, and said with a smile: "You don't need to thank her, in my eyes, she is like my daughter, my daughter, what should I thank?"

Jiang Hao also laughed, as if he let go of some burden in his heart, and gained an indescribable sense of relief.

She has always wanted to repay the favor of the Ding family, but she has never had the chance. Owing someone's kindness, knowing the kindness but being unable to repay the kindness, that is the burden in her heart. She didn't let go of that burden until now. Although the repayment was realized through Ning Tao this time, she obviously wouldn't and didn't want to treat Ning Tao as an "outsider".

Yan Song came in front of Ning Tao, without saying a word, suddenly made a bowing motion.

Ning Tao hastily stretched out his hand to support Yan Song's arm, not letting him bow down, "What are you doing?"

Yan Song looked ashamed, "Doctor Ning, I'm sorry, I was too blind to see Taishan just now, and said something that offended you. I, Yan, said what I said, and I said that as long as you can cure Ding Laozi, I will beg you to do it." Teacher, I will worship you as my teacher now."

Not only Yan Song's attitude has changed, but also the attitude of those famous doctors who questioned Ning Tao before. The eyes that looked at Ning Tao were full of curiosity and respect.

Ning Tao said politely: "Senior Yan, how can you take it seriously when you say it in a moment of anger? I am not qualified to be your master, but we can be friends if you want."

This Yan Song made him feel disgusted before, but Yan Song can put down his airs and worship him as a teacher at this moment, fulfilling the "gamble" just now, which is enough to show that Yan Song is a person who keeps his promises and is worth making friends with.

Yan Song smiled, "Of course I would, it is my honor to have a friend like you, Dr. Ning."

At this time, a woman walked in the door, in her early thirties, well-dressed, dignified and beautiful. Holding a gift box in her hand, she stood beside Ding Congjun as soon as she arrived.

She is Ding Congjun's wife Bai Binglan, who is also a soldier.

Jiang Hao said hello, "Hi sister-in-law."

Bai Binglan gave a funny smile to the river, as a greeting, then looked at Ning Tao, "This is Dr. Ning, right?"

Ning Tao nodded and said, "Hi, sister-in-law."

Bai Binglan held the gift box and handed it to Ning Tao, "Please accept the gift box."

"No, no, I came here because of Jiang Hao. I can't collect your consultation fee." Ning Tao said, without reaching out to take it. In fact, when Bai Binglan came in with the gift box, he suspected that the box contained consultation money, and then he awakened the state of his nose, and the gift box really smelled of money.

Bai Binglan looked at Ding Congjun with some embarrassment.

Ding Congjun said: "Doctor Ning, just take it. I asked Binglan to prepare it for you. It's only 100,000 yuan. Please don't dislike it."

Ning Tao said: "It's not that I think it's too little, but I can't accept it, let alone 100,000 yuan, even ten yuan can't be accepted."

If he accepts it, the meaning of Jiang Hao's gratitude will be gone.

What Ding Congjun wanted to say, Bai Binglan suddenly took the gift box back, and nudged her husband with her elbow, "Stop talking, it's because you didn't understand the situation and asked me to prepare the consultation fee. What is the family talking about?" Money? Talking about money is a matter of life."

Ding Congjun was stunned for a moment, and suddenly understood something, and said with a smile: "Hehe, it seems that I am really to blame for not understanding the situation. Jiang Hao, you are really too, you found such a good boyfriend and you didn't bring him back Give us an introduction."

"I..." Jiang Hao blushed, but only explained one word.

Ning Tao was very embarrassed, and when he was about to explain, Fan Huaying came in from the door, and said straight to the point: "Brother Ning, my friend is already on the way to the airport, and we just happened to have dinner together."

Before Ning Tao could say anything, Ding Ye said, "Hua Ying, where are you going to take our distinguished guest? I don't think you should leave, call your friend over here today. Let's have a quick meal at home. Jiang Hao, Binglan, you two go cook."

Jiang Hao and Bai Binglan followed suit.

Fan Huaying smiled, "Being obedient is worse than being respectful, so don't bother me."

Not long after Jiang Hao and Bai Binglan went to the kitchen, a group of famous doctors headed by Yan Song left. Ding Ye asked Ding Congjun to see off the guests, and he drank tea with Ning Tao and Fan Huaying in the living room. After chatting for a while, he hesitated to speak. There was no reason Fan Huaying didn't understand, so she found an excuse and went out.

After Fan Huaying left, Ding Ye said: "Xiao Ning, the question you asked me in the room before was not that I didn't want to tell you, but..."

Ning Tao didn't urge him, but just looked at him quietly.

After a few seconds, Ding Ye said again: "That was an old incident more than 30 years ago. We were at war with the Yue Kingdom that year. At that time, I was a scout. I was ordered to sneak into the area controlled by the local government to investigate Enemy situation. I lost my way in the forest and somehow found a cave. I still remember that it was raining heavily that day, and I was cold and hungry..."

Ning Tao was attracted by this story and listened attentively.

"I was looking in the cave, expecting to find wild fruit or something, and I found a snake, it was wounded and covered in blood. I was starving and I wanted to eat it. I stabbed it with a dagger, I thought it was dead, but just when I was about to grab it, it ran away suddenly, and my dagger was still stuck in it..." Ding Ye was silent at this point, his eyes were in a daze, confusion and fear could be seen faintly.

"What happened later?" Ning Tao couldn't help asking.

Ding Ye didn't speak, but got up and walked to a solid wood partition in the living room, took out a cloth bag from a drawer at the base of the partition, and then returned and handed the cloth bag to Ning Tao.

Ning Tao opened the cloth bag, and a rusty dagger was revealed immediately. He said in surprise, "This dagger...couldn't be the dagger you stuck on that snake back then?"

Ding Ye nodded, "It's that dagger with my name on the handle."

Ning Tao picked up the dagger, moved his eyes to the wooden handle of the dagger, and the name "Ding Ye" was engraved on it, and he was suddenly filled with confusion and curiosity, "Then how did it get back into your hand? "

Ding Ye was silent for a while before saying: "Half a month ago, when I was walking home, I saw this cloth bag. I opened it and found that it was the dagger I lost back then. I checked all the surveillance cameras nearby, but there was no Found someone who left the bag at my door. I've been sick since then, I can't figure out what's going on, I didn't connect my sickness with my dagger, today you ask who I offended , or the enemy, I just woke up like a dream... Tell me, could it be that snake who came to seek revenge on me?"

Ning Tao is still immersed in Ding Ye's weird story and can't get out. A snake that was stabbed by a dagger decades ago came back for revenge. Should he believe this is true?

"Xiao Ning?"

Only then did Ning Tao come to his senses, he wrapped the dagger, and said, "Old man, can you give me this dagger for safekeeping temporarily, I'll go back and study it, if this is what made you sick, I will Take the dagger and you are safe."

Ding Ye said: "Take it, I'm scared when I see it now, if you find anything, you must tell me."

Ning Tao nodded, and then put the dagger wrapped in cloth into his small medicine box.
