Chapter 117 The Medicine King's Successor Who Sends Blood Bars 9
After leaving Baicaotang, Ding Chengjue went straight to Dali Temple to find Bai Feiyan. He wanted to get to the bottom of the matter. He wanted to know whether Wang Tong really said one thing in front of him and another behind his back.
Bai Feiyan didn't expect Ding Chengjue to come back so soon, and looked at him calmly.
"Mr. Ding, why are you here?" Bai Feiyan asked.
Ding Chengjue smiled and said, "I just stopped by to see you. I happened to be going to Fumanju to buy some cakes. What do you like to eat? I'll bring some back for you."
Bai Feiyan said somewhat disappointedly: "Don't spend money. I have never eaten the cakes there, and I don't feel like eating them now. Wang Tong is still unknown whether he is dead or alive."
"Life or death unknown? It's so serious. But I just met Doctor Su, and she said Wang Tong is fine." Ding Chengjue's face darkened. He had brought chestnut cakes to Bai Feiyan many times. How could she not have eaten it? It could only be that Wang Tong really didn't give it to her.
Bai Feiyan's face froze and she cursed in her heart, thinking that nothing good would happen every time she met Su Luochen.
"Oh, it's like this. Wang Tong is fine physically, but he has lost all his martial arts skills. If he wakes up and finds out, he might try to commit suicide. I'm worried about him. Besides, he's such a proud person. If he knew that he had become a useless person, how could he bear it?"
"So that's why Weng Zening said he's no longer good, is that the reason?"
Bai Feiyan nodded uncomfortably: "Yeah."
Ding Chengjue smiled in a forced way: "That's such a pity. If I don't gather all the herbs, I'll really become a useless person."
Bai Feiyan said worriedly: "Yes, but there are only three days left, and the money is still not enough."
Ding Chengjue looked at Bai Feiyan with some distress. He couldn't bear to see his beloved showing such an expression. He wanted to hold her hand to comfort her, but the next second he was caught by Weng Zening who came over.
He felt that his wrist was about to be broken by Weng Zening.
"What does Mr. Ding want to do?" Weng Zening asked in a dangerous tone.
Ding Chengjue pulled his hand back and said, "I just wanted to comfort Feiyan because she was in a bad mood."
"There's no need to comfort her. After all, there are differences between men and women. If Mr. Ding has nothing to do, we will go back and take care of Wang Tong first."
Weng Zening stood between Ding Chengjue and Bai Feiyan.
Ding Chengjue took a breath and asked, "Fei Yan, if you're in a bad mood, you should eat something sweet. Last time I asked Wang Tong to give you some pear syrup candy, how did you like it? Do you want me to have someone bring some to you later?"
"Ah, pear syrup candy?" Bai Feiyan was puzzled, but suddenly realized, "Oh, pear syrup candy, it's okay, but I don't want to eat candy these two days, so don't bother."
Ding Chengjue nodded, turned around and left. He had never given Bai Feiyan any pear syrup candy before. It seemed that the things he asked Wang Tong to deliver did not reach Bai Feiyan.
As Ding Chengjue walked, he took a deep look in the direction where Wang Tong lived, with ruthlessness in his eyes.
Ding Chengjue woke up and looked at the prescription carefully. It was a prescription that an ordinary person could not possibly put together. It seemed that Wang Tong was destined to become a useless person. He would deal with him slowly when the time came.
It was already the eighth day, and Bai Feiyan was becoming more and more anxious. They had only gathered a few of the dozen or so medicinal herbs, and they couldn't get any of the rare ones. Even Lord Wang Wenyuan was helpless, and he had been looking worried these days.
On the tenth day, Weng Zening no longer had any hope. Actually, he could afford the money, but that would require all his wealth. He and Wang Tong had only known each other for a year, and he would not see him for several months when he was away on business trips. He had already paid one hundred taels of silver on his behalf, and he really could not risk all his fortune. After all, Wang Tong's life was safe, he had only lost his martial arts, which was no big deal.
As for himself, he has not made any progress in martial arts for more than a year. In the past, Bai Feiyan was no match for him, but recently he found that Bai Feiyan seemed to be able to fight him on equal terms. Although he always fooled her by letting her win, he couldn't keep doing this. He had to find a way to improve his martial arts.
Thinking of Su Luochen, maybe she has some good idea.
After sleeping for half a month, Wang Tong finally woke up. He felt severe pain in his body and wanted to get up but had no strength.
After learning that he had lost all his martial arts skills, he became confused and angry, but because he had no strength left, he could only lie on the bed and struggle.
After being knocked unconscious by Weng Zening, Bai Feiyan frowned and asked, "Why did you tell Wang Tong about this now? He just woke up. What if he gets upset?"
Weng Zening explained: "I'm doing this for his own good. His life is not in danger now, so a little stimulation won't do any harm. He'll be depressed for two days at most. I told him now because I want to tell him now while he's too weak to do anything. By the time he has the strength, it will have been a while since this happened, and he'll have calmed down and won't be looking for death anymore."
Bai Feiyan knew that what he said made sense, but she was worried. She was dizzy now, so what would she do when she woke up?
Half a month passed, and Wang Tong's health improved. Just as Weng Zening expected, he was no longer manic and slowly calmed down. Although he still looked half-dead, he was much less troublesome.
After Wang Wenyuan found out, he transferred him to the government office and asked him to patrol the streets every day. Wang Tong didn't want to go, but Wang Wenyuan said that he gave him a job to make a living because of their past friendship, so he should find another job, as he couldn't stay in the Dali Temple anymore.
In fact, there are many positions in Dali Temple that do not require too high martial arts skills, but with Ding Chengjue's obstruction, Wang Tong was kicked out of Dali Temple.
When Bai Feiyan found out, she ran to ask Wang Wenyuan why he was killing her.
Wang Wenyuan sighed and said kindly: "Fei Yan, Wang Tong used to be your right-hand man, but now that his martial arts skills are gone, he can no longer do those dangerous things.
If he continues to stay in the Dali Temple, watching his former brothers who fought side by side with him make contributions one by one while he himself can do nothing, I am afraid he will be unable to get over it.
Now I have been transferred to the Yamen. Lord Li and I have a good relationship. I have asked him to take good care of Wang Tong. The Yamen runners there are not very good at martial arts, so Wang Tong will not feel inferior. The work is easy, so why not do it?"
Bai Feiyan thought so too. For Wang Tong, the government office was indeed a good place.
"My Lord, Feiyan was obsessed and didn't understand your painstaking efforts. Please forgive me."
Wang Wenyuan smiled and said, "It's okay. You are still young. You will see more and think more comprehensively."
After tricking Bai Feiyan away, Wang Wenyuan breathed a sigh of relief.
Bai Feiyan went to persuade Wang Tong and told him to come to her if he had any problems in the future, that they would always be friends, and that she would continue to help him find ways to recover his martial arts, and then they could fight side by side again.
Wang Tong left reluctantly, thinking that he must recover his martial arts.
