Open A Clinic To Cultivate Myself Chapter 311 Sorrowful Tears

It was a door requiring an ident.i.ty card and enough authorization to open.

“Open the door! Open it… boohoo…” Tang Zhen was so anxious that she started to stamp her feet. Then, she collapsed into a heap.

Ning Tao immediately helped her up. He took the opportunity to press down on her neck's artery to make her faint. She was so affected that even spiritual power would not stabilize her emotions. It would be bad for her to remain awake. It would be much better for her to be unconscious.

“Auntie Tang has pa.s.sed out. Where can we let her lie down and rest?” Ning Tao asked.

Zhang Zeshan instructed two female comrades to help Tang Zhen away.

Ning Tao stood before the gla.s.s wall, watching Jiang Hao get bound on the bed. He frowned slightly. This environment made it impossible for him to take Jiang Hao to his clinic for treatment. He would be monitored here whatever he did or said. But he could not ignore Jiang Hao and leave her alone. If he did, his conscience would be stricken for life.

Jia Yinhong came to Ning Tao's side. He said, “Doctor Ning, you must cure Jiang Hao. If you need me in any way, just ask.”

Ning Tao s.h.i.+fted his eyes and glanced at Jia Yinhong. He summoned his state of looking and examined this man's sin or merit. Soon, he came to a conclusion. There was only a pitiful whiff of good energy emanating from his body. Ning Tao's experience told him that Jia Yinhong had only acc.u.mulated merit for being filial to his parents.

To be honest, he was no different from most people in this world. He was not an evildoer, yet he also stinted on doing good.

Ning Tao nodded. “Okay, thank you.”

Jia Yinhong said, “Don't stand on ceremony. Although I've only been Jiang Hao's colleague for a short time, I respect her. I don't feel good either with her in this state.”

Ning Tao's eyes s.h.i.+fted to Jiang Hao in the isolation room. He did not know whether Jia Yinhong was really feeling bad inside, but he himself was certainly feeling awful.

Zhang Zeshan walked over. “Doctor Ning, do you think Comrade Jiang Hao is suffering from the same illness as Lin Qinghua?”

Ning Tao said, “It's more or less the same illness. But more severe. I need to get in and examine her to make the correct diagnosis.”

This time, Zhang Zeshan did not stop him. “Sure. You need to wear antibacterial clothing after getting yourself disinfected. Then you can go in.”

10 minutes later, Ning Tao returned to the isolation room in antibacterial clothing. Zhang Zeshan opened the door with his ident.i.ty card and Ning Tao walked in with his small medicine chest.

Zhang Zeshan had originally wanted Ning Tao to leave his medicine chest behind, but Ning Tao insisted that he needed it to give Jiang Hao a diagnosis. Only then did Zhang Zeshan allow him to take the medicine chest in. But before Ning Tao entered, he went through the contents of the chest.

After Ning Tao entered the isolation room, the safety door shut itself automatically. He and Jiang Hao were alone in the room. He walked towards her, observing her terrible condition. His heart broke and the rim of his eyes turned moist.

Jiang Hao's eyes s.h.i.+fted to Ning Tao's body. A green light flashed across her eyes. She tried to struggle up, but her hands and legs were bound. She could not move at all.

Ning Tao came to her bed. He could no longer restrain himself and tears gushed out from his eyes. Even his voice had turned a little hoa.r.s.e. “Hao, I'm here… Don't worry, I will cure you.”

Jiang Hao watched Ning Tao and uttered a sentence. “Don't tie me up. I will enlist in the army on my father's behalf and slay our enemies in battle.”

Her words enlightened Ning Tao as to which historical character she thought herself to be— Hua Mulan.

Ancestor seeking… to put it bluntly, it will activate the information left behind by your ancestors in your genes. The more powerful the person was, the easier it would be to activate.

Ning Tao grabbed Jiang Hao's hand and injected special spiritual power into her body. He asked, “Hao, don't you remember me?”

Jiang Hao stared directly at Ning Tao. Her mood had stabilized somewhat after Ning Tao's spiritual power took effect. She seemed to have recovered a little of her sanity. “You're…”

Ning Tao said, “I'm Ning Tao. Don't you remember me?”

Jiang Hao nodded. “I do. You're Pock Face w.a.n.g, the butcher in the village.”

Ning Tao wanted to laugh, but could not.

Jiang Hao said, “Promise me this. After I enlist, take care of my aged father and brother. I will marry you once I return. Will you do that?”

Ning Tao nodded, but tears started to stream down uncontrollably again. He stretched out his hand and wiped them off. In the meantime, he managed to swiftly scan both corners of the gla.s.s wall from the corners of his eyes. There were two surveillance cameras there, monitoring the entire isolation room. Everything he did here would be transmitted to and screened at the other end. In addition, numerous pairs of eyes must be watching him from behind the gla.s.s wall.

But Ning Tao still put down the small medicine chest on his shoulder. He placed it on the bed, opened it and took out a few Sacred Needles and a porcelain vial containing the Fine Primary Elixir. Then he inserted the needles into Jiang Hao's body, to help stabilize her heart rate and mood.

A big crowd had gathered outside the gla.s.s wall. Some were scientific researchers, others medical staff. Standing right in front were Zhang Zeshan and Jia Yinhong. Regardless of who they were, all their eyes were converged on Ning Tao and Jiang Hao.

“Can he cure Comrade Jiang Hao with only a few needles? I don't believe he can.” One of the medical staff could not help but say.

“But I heard he had cured this illness before. Perhaps he really has some skills,” another said.

“If he can cure Comrade Jiang Hao with a few needles, it won't be scientific. I can't explain what those needles can do to help Comrade Jiang Hao,” a scientific researcher said.

All sorts of voices were discussing. Although no one claimed Ning Tao was a charlatan, most of them doubted him.

In the foremost row, Zhang Zeshan asked Jia Yinhong, “Are the surveillance cameras working?”

Jia Yinhong nodded. “The entire isolation room is under our surveillance. No corner is left unmonitored. Maybe this time, we can unravel his mystery.”

Zhang Zeshan's gaze s.h.i.+fted back to Ning Tao.

In the isolation room, Ning Tao had poured out a Fine Primary Elixir from the porcelain vial. He brought it to Jiang Hao's lips and said gently, “Hao, take this pill. It will help cure your illness.”

Jiang Hao gave a cold snort. “Humph! I'm not sick. I won't take any medicine! I need to go into battle and slay our enemies. You're a despicable man, Pock Face w.a.n.g. Don't try to stop me!”

Ning Tao simply pinched her chin with his fingers and stuffed the Fine Primary Elixir into her mouth.

The Fine Primary Elixir was a medium for the patient. It was mandatory for anyone coming into the clinic to take it. But even though they were not in Sky Clinic, the elixir would do Jiang Hao's terrible condition a whole lot of good.

But Jiang Hao did not appreciate this. While Ning Tao was stuffing the Fine Primary Elixir into her mouth, she suddenly opened her mouth and bit Ning Tao's fingers.

Ning Tao instantly felt a sharp pain, but he did not react. He allowed Jiang Hao to continue biting his fingers.

Biting with one's teeth is not a blunt attack. After being demonized, Jiang Hao had become pitifully thin. But she had amazing strength in her body. Her teeth managed to bite through Ning Tao's fingers and blood flowed into her mouth. Some blood trickled onto her clothes and the bed sheet.

One full minute later, Ning Tao stretched out his hand to tickle Jiang Hao at her armpit.

“Hahaha…” Jiang Hao opened her mouth and giggled.

Ning Tao took this opportunity to retract his fingers. He wiped them on the bed sheet, drawing a few blood locks in the process. He drew one on the sheet, another on the quilt, and yet another on Jiang Hao's clothes.

At this moment, perhaps because the Fine Elixir and Ning Tao's blood were taking effect, Jiang Hao suddenly quietened down after a few giggles. She watched Ning Tao with a different expression in her eyes.

Ning Tao was stirred. “Have you awakened?”

Jiang Hao gave a slight nod. Two tears rolled noiselessly down the corners of her eyes.

Ning Tao grasped her hand tightly. “Tell me what has happened. How did you end up this way?”

“I did this willingly.”

“Did this willingly?”

Jiang Hao did not wish to continue this topic. She changed the subject. “That day, in the movie theater… I shouldn't have slapped you… I'm sorry.”

Ning Tao gave a wry smile. “Why talk about this now? The person who ought to apologize is me. You treated me so well, yet I spoke so harshly to you. I was unfair.”

On that day in the movie theater, Jiang Hao had expressed her affection and even tried to be intimate with him. But he told Jiang Hao that she must accept Qing Zhui as his other wife. This would be completely acceptable in the ancient times. If a man did not take more wives in the past, his wife would fret and take the initiative to find him a suitable concubine. But they were in modern times. It was a normal reaction for her to have slapped him.

“I know… that you're not willing to lie to me…” Jiang Hao's voice was full of grief. “After that, I was very upset. I was not in the mood to do anything and felt very depressed… I wanted to change myself… so I volunteered to take on this task…”

“Why… why didn't you tell me? You're such a fool…” Tears rolled down Ning Tao's eyes again. He did not expect Jiang Hao to volunteer herself as a laboratory mouse. The reason behind it was that slap in the movie theater.

“Is she here?”

“Qing Zhui?”

“Who else?”

Ning Tao said, “She did not come. My relations.h.i.+p with her is very complex. I will explain to you once you get discharged. Another thing: our relations.h.i.+p has remained chaste even now.”

“You two… have a chaste relations.h.i.+p?” Jiang Hao was momentarily dazed. She obviously did not believe Ning Tao. A beauty clinging to him like a parasite… which man could resist her allure?

Ning Tao gave a wry smile. “It's normal if you don't believe me. After you are discharged, I will get her to chat with you. I will chat with you too.”

She used to be an ordinary person. This was the reason why he had not disclosed to her the fact that he was a cultivating doctor. But she was a new demon now. Although he did not know what her new abilities were, he no longer needed to keep his true ident.i.ty a secret since her ident.i.ty had changed as well.

“Alright. I need to do some preparations. I'll be back soon.” Ning Tao pulled out the Sacred Needles on Jiang Hao's body.

“Must you force me… to accept her?” Jiang Hao asked. This question seemed crucial to her.

Ning Tao did not answer her. He lifted his small medicine chest and headed for the door.

“Promise me: if I meet with any mishap, take good care of my mother!” Jiang Hao said.

Ning Tao nodded and opened the room door. He walked out.
