This doctor is not short of money

Zhang Dewen finally restrained himself and stopped saying some crazy words.

Following the guidance, I sat down in my seat and exchanged brief greetings with old friends I hadn't seen for a long time, or 'acquaintances' I'd met once or twice, or whose names I'd heard, and finally the place in front of the old men became much quieter.

"Where's that kid Xiao Du? I've been hearing his name all the time in the past two years. He became famous as fast as a rocket. I was so scared that I didn't dare to contact him."

Zhang Dewen knew the relationship between Du Heng and the two old men in front of him, so he looked around as soon as he sat down, but to his regret, he did not see Du Heng.

Zhang Dewen was a little dissatisfied and glanced at Zheng Yuancheng and Lan Changhua, "What? The young man is too famous. Are you afraid that taking him over will steal your limelight?"

Zheng Yuancheng was about the same age as Zhang Dewen, and he didn't care about Zhang Dewen's dissatisfaction at all. But when it came to Du Heng, he couldn't help but say a few words for his successor, "Haha, you are an old man who is still struggling, I don't care." It’s been two years since I retired and I’m still in the limelight.

Xiao Du is still young, and he is very busy every day, so he has no time to participate in such boring things. "

"What is he busy with that is important to this occasion?" Zhang Dewen said subconsciously, "You elders are too careless.

If Xiao Du can soar professionally, he must have put all his energy into it.

But this society is not one where professionals can thrive, especially after the New Year. This guy is about to reach the final level of selection. At this time, how can you do nothing if you don't do your best to let him know more people? "

Zhang Dewen stared at Zheng Yuancheng with dissatisfaction, "You have been sitting as an academician for many years. Don't you know that the higher your position, the more you want to do things, the more your network will be tested?

No wonder your research institute looks like a piece of shit. It turns out the problem lies with you.

It's such a pity that Xiao Du, such a good young man, can only be a craftsman who sees the doctor and feels the pulse under your hands. "

Zhang Dewen used to speak more directly, but after three years, not only did he speak more directly, but he also started to poke his lungs. This made Zheng Yuancheng, who had always had a peaceful mind, instantly turn into a black face.

He had no desire to chat with Zhang Dewen at all.

Without his support and promotion, it would be impossible for Du Heng alone to complete the affairs of the institute.

But he couldn't say it. If he did, it would appear that what he did in the research institute was really a piece of shit.

Lan Changhua actually didn't want to talk. He was younger than the two of them and his status was much different. In addition, the incident involving his student some time ago had nothing to do with him and he didn't know about it, but he always felt that Awkward, face burned.

According to the previous development trajectory, he thought that he would use his remaining energy for a few more years. When the next time the Chinese Medicine Masters began to select, he would be over the age limit. With a little help from Du Heng, he would be very sure to get a spot.

But now that he has his own student, everything has become a dream.

Under such a series of whippings, if the caller hadn't come directly to the door, he really would not have come to such an occasion.

They were inferior to others, and there was no possibility of catching up. Being with these people, it really felt like I couldn't hold my head up.

Sad.

But now seeing that Zheng Yuancheng was stabbed in the lungs by Zhang Dewen because of Du Heng, and he and Zhang Dewen also had a good relationship, he could only sigh and prepare to say something to ease the atmosphere between everyone.

"Mr. Zhang, you misunderstood. Xiao Du took over the task of the State Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine and is now visiting those folk traditional Chinese medicine masters across the country."

Lan Changhua said softly, "And this time the matter is relatively sudden. I heard that it was a sudden request from the royal family of Jiyuanpowu, so we also gave short notice here.

Not only Xiao Du can't come, but also many people can't come. "

Zhang Dewen thought quickly, then turned to look at the banquet hall.

Seeing this, Zhang Dewen's face darkened a little, and his voice suddenly dropped, "I don't think it's like a short notice. It should be that the superiors suppressed the news and the problem is not solved now, so they came to us.

Look, among the people here today, there are not many people who are involved in Western medicine. "

After Zhang Dewen finished speaking, several people around him raised their heads and glanced around quickly, and their faces suddenly became ugly.

Zheng Yuancheng frowned and said, "Professor Zhang, do you mean that the Jiyuanpowu royal family delegation is here to see a doctor?"

"This is very possible, otherwise why would we arrest a bunch of doctors here?" Zhang Dewen felt even more unhappy now.

After Zheng Yuancheng glanced around again, he seemed to be talking to himself, "There are really not many people in modern medicine, so we are going to take the blame."

"Cough, cough."

Lan Changhua interrupted Zheng Yuancheng's muttering and winked towards the door.

Zheng Yuancheng was silent for a moment and turned to look at the door.

Wu Yueqing is a tall, slightly fat man with a bit of a general's belly.

He was Yao Youshi who helped Du Heng find the guide.

But the guide's first words upon meeting him gave Du Heng a very bad blow.

The person they were going to meet died two months ago.

Wu Yueqing was a little embarrassed, rubbed his hands and said, "I haven't been back to the village for a long time, and I don't know much about things in the village.

In my impression, Uncle Qi is always very busy and has to go into the mountains from time to time, so I made a phone call yesterday and asked someone to go take a look and asked Uncle Qi not to go into the mountains and wait for us.

He just called me back and said that Uncle Qi had left three months ago. "

Du Heng was feeling a little depressed. He was in his 50s, but he was still in his prime. How could he say that he was gone?

"Does Officer Wu know how people disappeared?"

"It should be an emergency such as myocardial infarction or cerebral infarction. Anyway, when everyone found the person, Uncle Qi had no external injuries on his body, and the person was already hard, so he was directly lifted off and the funeral arrangements were taken care of."

Wu Yueqing tilted his lips indifferently. If the news hadn't come too late, he definitely wouldn't have made this trip.

After all, people are dead.

Du Heng was also heartbroken, but birth, old age, illness and death are normal human events. No one knows which comes first, luck or accident. He has accepted this reality.

Only Lao You felt very unwilling.

He was dragged from the sky to the mountain by Du Heng, and almost slipped directly from the mountain into a ditch, risking his life. He was not willing to go back like this.

The deeper reason is that he actually tasted the sweetness during the several missions he accompanied Du Heng on.

For this reason, Lao You proactively raised the question for the first time, "Officer Wu, does Mr. Wu Qiqiao have an apprentice? If he has an apprentice, we can meet and chat."

And this question also made Du Heng suddenly wake up. Yes, Wu Qiqiao's apprentice can do it too.

Wu Yueqing thought for a while and said hesitantly, "I have been out for a long time, and I really don't know if Uncle Qi has any apprentices. But I remember that his son always followed him into the mountains in the past, and also followed him to show others. I have been ill, but I don’t know if I have learned Uncle Qi’s craftsmanship.

Forget it, let me ask you a question. "

Now that it's all here, Wu Yueqing doesn't want to do anything, so he might as well just stick to the favor.

I went out to make a phone call, and after understanding the situation, I walked over to Du Heng and the others, "Uncle Qi's son is called Wu Yueli. It is said that he learned Uncle Qi's craftsmanship, but no one has seen him dispensing medicine.

Professor Du, do you still want to go? "

Du Heng hesitated a little and turned to look at Lao You.

Lao You had a very good idea this time. When Du Heng turned to look at him, he nodded and said, "We're all here, let's go and have a look. There might be a surprise."

After Lao You said this, Du Heng's hesitation disappeared. He was afraid that Lao You would suddenly become petty again.

After tidying up a little, Yao Youshi also set off with Du Heng and others.

With acquaintances there, they were talking and laughing along the way, and it didn't seem boring.

And as he chatted with Wu Yueqing, Du Heng got to know Wu Qiqiao better.

Wu Qiqiao, a local Miao doctor, is very good at treating diseases, but he is called the Snake King because he is very good at catching snakes, raising snakes, and treating snake venom.

The reason why Du Heng had this person's information and was put on the interview list was because this Mr. Wu Qiqiao did not stay in the village like other Shengmiao.

Instead, he wandered around, made a wide range of friends, and had very close ties with other surrounding villages and the Han people.

At first, everyone knew him because he caught snakes all over the mountains and plains, and as long as he appeared, there would be something harvested in his bamboo basket.

So at that time, everyone thought that he was just a person who made money by catching snakes.

The more friends you make, the more contacts and exchanges you have, and then everyone naturally discovers that this young man who makes money by catching snakes can also treat people, and his level is quite good.

Wu Qiqiao didn't know how much money he made from catching snakes in the surrounding area, but he made a lot of money by treating people.

After more than 20 to [-] years of contact, everyone discovered that Wu Qiqiao was most powerful at catching snakes, raising snakes, and treating snake venom.

Because no matter it is windy, rainy, or cold and shivering in winter, as long as Wu Qiqiao comes out of the mountains, he can easily catch all kinds of snakes.

The most frightening thing was that someone once took out a large, colorful snake as thick as an adult's arm from his backpack.

It is rare to see such a thick snake in the mountains here. After asking curiously, I found out that Wu Qiqiao had raised it himself.

Gradually, Wu Qiqiao gained the title of 'Snake King'.

The few people chatted all the way and didn't feel that the journey was far, but Wu Yueqing, who was leading the way, looked at the sky and the conditions of Du Heng and Lao You, and decided to take Du Heng and others to spend the night in his uncle's village first. The next day we will continue to our destination.

As soon as he entered the village, Du Heng was surprised to find three strong young men swinging hammers behind a house.

Two against one, the two-person team clearly had the upper hand, and the other person who was fighting could only parry but not fight back.

Although he was being beaten passively, the person who was being beaten was also a reckless man. Whether he was beaten over or kicked over, he would get up immediately and rush forward without fear.

Then he was knocked to the ground again.

"#@￥%"

Wu Yueqing shouted, pointed at the three fighting men and walked over.

However, none of the three people fighting, whether they had the upper hand or the lower one, paid any attention to Wu Yueqing, and continued to vent their passionate youth.

Du Heng and the other three didn't stand either, and followed Wu Yueqing down, fearing that the three young men would beat up Wu Yueqing in their enthusiasm.

I don’t know what Wu Yueqing said. After a sharp scolding, the three young people were finally separated although they were still dissatisfied.

Only then did everyone see clearly that one of the two-person team was intact, the other had a bruised nose and face, and his body was covered with footprints. The guy who was alone in the team had panda eyes and swollen cheeks.

Fortunately, after a while of chattering, the three young men each snorted coldly and then parted ways, leaving Wu Yueqing alone.

"Hey, the two kids have taken a liking to a girl from the village next door, and they're meeting here for a duel."

Wu Yueqing didn't show any anger at all. Instead, he explained to Du Heng and others with a smile, "It's just that the other kid's brother didn't follow martial arts ethics. Seeing that his brother was at a disadvantage, he directly intervened and turned it into a two-on-one situation."

It's nice to be young!

Du Heng and others also laughed.

A happy episode passed like this. Du Heng and the other three followed Wu Yueqing to his aunt's house, planning to stay here for the night.

After dinner, Du Heng went to visit this semi-closed Miao village at the invitation of Wu Yueqing.

When I left the house, I saw a young man squatting at the foot of the wall not far from the house, wiping something on himself. When he saw Du Heng, Wu Yueqing and others, he stood up and slipped away along the wall.

Du Heng could see clearly that this young man was the reckless young man who formed a team by himself before.

Wu Yueqing also recognized it, and immediately became happy, "You little brat, I guess you are too bruised and swollen to go home, so you are waiting here for dark."

Du Heng also felt that this was a possibility. After all, when he was a child, he did bad things. He would wait until dark before going home, and then go directly into bed to avoid being seen. Otherwise, he would have been seen when he went back, and he would be beaten by his elder brother.

Just passing by the place where the young man was squatting just now, Du Heng vaguely smelled the smell of medicine.

Is this guy applying medicine to himself?
Du Heng turned back and glanced at the young man who had slipped away from the wall not far away.

There was heavy humidity in the mountains and it was difficult to walk due to the heavy dew in the morning. Du Heng and others waited until the sun came out before they got up and set off.

Just as Du Heng and others were saying goodbye to Wu Yueqing's aunt and uncle, a head poked his head in the door and peeked inside furtively.

When he saw Du Heng and the others, he jerked his head back.

Just when Du Heng and others were puzzled, the young man stumbled in.

Looking again, it turned out that a middle-aged man behind him was pushing the young man with a cold face.

Wu Yueqing's aunt and uncle came up to him. They didn't know what they were talking about, but after saying a few words, they called Wu Yueqing over.

At this time, Du Heng discovered that the young man's dark eye sockets and raised corners of his mouth, which were still dark yesterday, were no longer obvious now.
