“You are too polite,” Wang Yao said as he raised his glass and downed all the wine in it . In regards to these people, he sincerely admired them .

“Dr . Wang, you can rest assured that we’ll pay for the entire cost of the treatment,” Cheng Haidong said .
He had once heard Su Zhixing mention that the herbs Wang Yao used to treat the seriously ill were very expensive . He had just seen the magical effect with his own eyes . Such an effect was worth any price .
“For such warriors, I will treat them free of charge and will not receive any money,” Wang Yao replied .
The charge of treatment should also be decided according to the patient and the matter .
“Thank you!” Cheng Haidong was stunned . He quickly downed all the alcohol in his cup .
Both the guests and the host were happy during the meal . They had already drunk the four bottles of wine they had brought . Wang Yao had also drunk a lot . Cheng Haidong wanted to go and get a few more bottles, but Wang Yao refused . He could see that Dr . Fan was almost drunk and starting to stutter .
“I didn’t expect Dr . Wang could drink so much,” Cheng Haidong said . “Are you a big fan of alcohol as well?”
“Sir doesn’t usually drink at all,” Zhong Liuchuan said .
“Oh,” Cheng Haidong replied in surprise .
He had thought Wang Yao had drinking as a hobby and wanted to get him two boxes of good wine to roughly express his gratitude . Unexpectedly, he didn’t like alcohol . He had to think of something else .
After dinner, the four of them went home . Wang Yao and Zhong Liuchuan had extraordinary physical fitness . That amount of alcohol was nothing to them, so they walked fast . Cheng Haidong and Dr . Fan walked relatively slowly . Within a short time, the distance between the four had widened .
“What do you think of Dr . Wang, Dr . Fan?” Cheng Haidong asked .
“His medical skills are extraordinary,” Dr . Fan replied .
“Is that it?” Cheng Haidong was stunned .
“Yes,” Dr . Fan said .
“I think his medical ethics are also very high,” Cheng Haidong said .
“Yes, they… They’re not bad . ” Dr . Fan was stuttering a little .

His head was spinning and felt heavy . That bottle had been a strong liquor with more than 50% alcohol content . He had almost drunk an entire bottle of it, which was more than his usual amount . It was mainly because he had been eating delicacies for a few days and rarely got to drink such good alcohol . He had unconsciously drunk more than he could handle . It was considered good if he could hear five out of 10 of the words the man beside him was saying . He didn’t feel like replying either .
“Dr . Fan?” Cheng Haidong asked .
Plop! Dr . Fan fell and sat down on the ground . He tried to stand up, scrambling on his hands and feet, but he ended up lying on the ground . His posture was indecent . Seeing this, Cheng Haidong hurriedly pulled him up .
“Are you alright?” he asked .
“Great alcohol!” Dr . Fan raised his thumb . His little pinky stuck out as well .
He had drunk too much .
“Let’s go . I’ll support you as we walk . ” Cheng Haidong went forward to help him .
“There’s no need . I’m fine,” Dr . Fan said as he reached his hand out to push him away .
That little move made him fall into the grass patch beside the road .
Cheng Haidong hurried over and fished him out . Dr . Fan’s head was in the soil . It had rained in the afternoon, so the ground was muddy . He was covered in mud .
“Are you alright?” Cheng Haidong asked .
“I’m… I’m fine, bah! What is this?” Dr . Fan mumbled .
“Alright, let’s hurry back,” Cheng Haidong said .
Afraid of another accident, he grabbed Dr . Fan and half dragged, half shoved him back .
When they returned and Nurse Li saw Dr . Fan’s condition, she asked, “What happened to him?”
“He drank too much and fell in the ditch,” Cheng Haidong said . “Take a look at him and see if he has injured himself . ”
“Yes, I got it,” Nurse Li said .

After parting ways with Zhong Liuchuan in the village, Wang Yao went up Nanshan Hill . He thought, The men in the army can sure drink .
After drinking a bottle of hard liquor, Wang Yao was fine . His alcohol tolerance was quite unusual .
He picked up a Taoist scripture and began to read it . He didn’t go to bed until after 11 p . m .
The next morning, the weather was a little gloomy, but the cool wind was blowing, causing him to feel very refreshed .
The wounded soldier had awoken and felt much better . Dr . Fan and Nurse Li were checking him . Cheng Haidong stayed by and watched .
“Well, he’s better than yesterday,” Dr . Fan said .
“I feel a lot better than yesterday,” the soldier said .
His body did not feel as heavy . His breathing was much smoother, and his mind was clearer . He almost felt as if he had been reborn .
“Take your medicine,” Dr . Fan said . “Take the antidote powder once a day, in the morning, and the regathering soup three times a day . ”
He turned to Cheng Haidong and asked, “Captain Cheng, can we keep some of this medicine?”
“No!” Cheng Haidong replied without hesitation .
He knew what the doctor wanted to do . He wanted to take it back to test the ingredients of the medicine and copy it .
“Just think about it,” Dr . Fan said . “If we succeed in getting the composition of this medicine, our soldiers might be free from the threat of this terrible poison . ”
“Why don’t you just ask Dr . Wang about it instead of using that method?” Cheng Haidong asked .
In his opinion, it was no different from stealing, which was breaking through the bottom line of morality and despised by others .
Dr . Fan was speechless . The atmosphere in the room instantly became awkward .
“Alright, I’m done checking on him,” Dr . Fan finally said . “There is no problem . ”

Dr . Fan and Nurse Li left the room .
“Captain, they had good intentions,” the soldier said .
“Their utilitarianism is too strong,” Cheng Haidong replied .
“I should thank Dr . Wang well,” the soldier said .
“Yes, we should thank him well,” Cheng Haidong said . “Su Zhixing and Meng Wushuang were also saved by him . ”
“Was it the same poison?” the soldier asked .
“Yes, the same one,” Cheng Haidong replied .
“Can it be determined that it is from the same armed force?” the soldier asked .
“We can be sure that it was from the same armed forces and, most likely, you guys were injured by the same person,” Cheng Haidong said . “If you guys hadn’t had to protect me, you would not be injured . ”
“You’re being pretentious by saying that,” the soldier said with a smile . “I just want to recover quickly and go to the battlefield to avenge those comrades who have died!”
The clinic was open as usual . There were not many patients, at least when compared with the past few days .
At about 9 a . m . , Pan Jun came arrived at the clinic . He was off duty and had come to help .
“Ah, Master, didn’t it rain here yesterday?” he asked .
“There was some light rain in the afternoon, just enough to wet the land,” Wang Yao said .
“There has been heavy rain in the county,” Pan Jun said . “Many places were flooded, and a man was swept away by the river . ”
“That’s a pity,” Wang Yao said .
“He had wanted to fish, but the water current was so strong that it took him away,” Pan Jun said .
That kind of situation happened almost every year . Whenever there was a flood, big fish would come out of the reservoir that was flooded . Some people liked to take the opportunity to catch some fish . As a result, their lives were often in danger . The water and fire elements were merciless .
The few people in the clinic all had leg and foot pain . Pan Jun was able to help them . Wang Yao was able to be more relaxed and less busy .
When no one was around, Wang Yao began to teach Pan Jun how to identify traditional Chinese medicine, which was the most basic ability of a pharmacist . There were now more than 2,000 kinds of known traditional Chinese medicine, and 100s of them were frequently used . Wang Yao first taught him to identify common Chinese medicine .
At noon, Pan Jun didn’t go back . He ate at Wang Yao’s house .
In the late afternoon, after the clinic had closed, Wang Yao went to the courtyard to check on the wounded soldier .
“Yichuan, this is Dr . Wang,” Cheng Haidong said .
“Hello, Dr . Wang, thank you for saving my life,” the soldier said .
“You’re welcome,” Wang Yao said with a smile . “Just lie down . Talk less and regain your spirits . ”
Looking at his appearance and listening to his voice, he seemed to be much better . Wang Yao took his pulse, which was steady . His life was no longer in danger . After checking the wound on his chest, it had already begun to heal and scab after one night . The medicinal power of the ointment for continuing life was amazing .
“Well, you’re fine,” Wang Yao said . “You can probably get out of bed in a few more days . ”
“That’s great,” Cheng Haidong said .
“I’ll go back now,” Wang Yao said . “If you need anything, ask Liuchuan to find me . ”
“Yes, thank you so much,” Cheng Haidong said .
He followed Wang Yao out and asked to have dinner with him, but he was refused . He returned to the room and discussed something with Zeng Yichuan, who was lying on the bed .
“I want Dr . Fan and Xiao Li to go back,” Cheng Haidong said . “We only need one soldier to take care of matters here . ”
“Yes, I agree,” Zeng Yichuan said . “It’s not convenient for them to be here . ”
“OK, that’s settled then,” Cheng Haidong said . “We’ll ask them to go back tomorrow . ”
