Chapter 1600: He Shuangshuang's Disappearance
a different story.He possessed a divine artifact, the Refining Demon Bottle, which was the bane of these dark practitioners, wielding absolute power over them.That great serpent lunged towards Ye Buf...The next morning, Ye Bufan got up from bed and looked at Dongfang Hui beside him.
This crazy woman is truly insane, she actually went on and on all night.
If it weren't for his cultivation at the Yuan Ying stage and his mastery of medicine, he would have probably needed to lean on a wall to get out.
After breakfast, I called Wang Xuande and asked him to come to the clinic.
Through the TCM Competition and Medical Exchange Conference, I found that this old man had undergone a significant change. He was no longer as money-grubbing as he used to be.
In that case, there's no need for me to stay at the Guyi Medical Hall any longer. I might as well just return it to him directly.
Not long after, Wang Xuandé walked in from outside. After seeing Ye Bufan, he bowed deeply: “Doctor Immortal, is there something you need me for”
Ye Bufan said, "There's nothing else. Take this clinic back."
"Huh" Wang Xuandde hesitated for a moment before waving his hand repeatedly. "No, no, the clinic is yours now. There's no way I can take it back."
Ye Bufan said, "The reason I made a bet with you in the beginning was because you lost the heart of a doctor. Since you have now corrected it, I will give it back to you."
"No, Immortal Physician, this medical hall is in your hands and can do more for the people of China. No matter what, I cannot accept it."
"Speaking of which, Wang Xuande's face was filled with shame. “This old man had been so focused on making money that he had forgotten his original intention when he first studied medicine.”
Fortunately, with the teachings of the Immortal Healer, I have corrected my mistakes in time. Before coming here, I lowered the price of all medicines at the Divine Needle Wang Medical Hall by 70%.
Now that I'm getting older, I don't have many more years to live. During the remaining time, I will devote myself wholeheartedly to developing Traditional Chinese Medicine and treating illnesses for the people with all my might. Only then will this life not be in vain as a doctor.
Life is so wonderful. A few days ago, he was painstakingly trying his best to get back the Gu Yi Men Medical Hall. Now, his state of mind has undergone a complete transformation.
"That's good, just having that intention is enough."
"However, I have a lot on my plate and can't devote myself fully to the clinic. You'd be much better off there."
“This…” Wang Xuande hesitated for a moment and said, “Doctor Immortal, that’s it. I’ll take care of the medical hall for you. The name won't change, and all ownership remains yours.”
If you agree to return and practice medicine here today, if you do not agree, then regardless of what happens, I will not take back my word.
"OK."
With Ye Bufan's current net worth, he doesn't take this clinic seriously. In his eyes, it's just a middleman serving the people. As for whose name it's under, he doesn't care at all.
"Wang Xuandé's face was filled with joy: 'That's wonderful, from now on, this old man will also have the opportunity to follow by the side of Immortal Doctor and learn more skills.'"
At that moment, Ye Bufan's phone rang. He answered the call, and a hearty laughter from Jian Sheng Situ Changkong came through the receiver.
"You did a good job, kid. You made those opportunistic bandits eat their words and even earned yourself the title of Medical Immortal."
Firstly, Situ Changkong praised Ye Bufan profusely. Then he said, “Boy, come here to me now, the two of us old fellows have something to discuss with you.”
"Alright, I'll be there soon."
Ye Bufan handed over the medical clinic to Wang Xuande, Cao Xinhua, and Lou Baining. Then he drove towards Xuan Yuan Pavilion.
He still holds the position of the Fourth Elder of Xuanyuan Pavilion, but he hasn't been back since arriving in the imperial capital. It seems he has the potential to be a hands-off manager.
Upon entering Xuanyuan Pavilion, Zhang Daoquan and Situ Changkong were still sitting under the pavilion playing chess.
"Don't come down, Xiao Fan is here."
Upon seeing him arrive, Situ Changkong directly overturned the chessboard.
"Zhang Daoquan said dissatisfiedly: "You old thing, your chess skills are too poor. You even overturn the board when you're about to lose."
Finally, he reached out and patted Ye Bufan on the shoulder: "Kid, you're really something. You've turned the whole imperial capital upside down recently, even bringing down the Ximen family."
“Just now, I gave those clueless fellows a good thrashing. They're really something else!”
The moment he arrived, this old man showered him with praise. Ye Bufan had a bad feeling about it; there's no such thing as a free lunch. This old man didn't seem like he was up to anything good.
"Master Situ, you called me here just to praise me, didn't you"
"Of course not, I'm not that idle." Situ Changkong said, "This time, I found you because there's a task from Xuanyuan Pavilion that wants you to do."
Ye Bufan thought to himself, as expected, this old man had never come to him for anything good.
But he didn't speak either, wanting to see what kind of task had led Xuanyuan Pavilion to him.
Si Tu Changkong continued, "Recently, there have been cases of people disappearing in several parts of China. After investigations in multiple places, all clues led to one place - Shanghai."
Yè Búfán said: “Sītú senior, shouldn't missing people be the responsibility of local departments Could it be that our Xuanyuan Pavilion even manages such trivial matters” “Xiao Fán, this matter is not as simple as you think.”
Zhang Daoquan took over the conversation, "First of all, the number of missing people this time is very large, with dozens of people missing."
Moreover, local investigations revealed traces of martial artists having been there.
Additionally, these missing people share a common characteristic: they are all female between the ages of 15 and 25, and were all born during the Yin time.
"When these two characteristics are combined, the case becomes rather unique, exceeding the other party's capabilities. That is why they sought help from Xuanyuan Pavilion."
"Oh! Well, then I wouldn't need to go. I'm just a small-town doctor, not equipped to handle a case of this magnitude. Someone else should be sent."
In Ye Bufan's view, this wasn't a complicated matter at all. The Xuanyuan Pavilion had so many people; sending someone else was the same as doing it himself.
Master Situ Changkong said: "This matter is very complicated and strange. I feel it's extraordinary, something ordinary people can't handle at all."
And lately, those Westerners have been restless, showing some signs of trouble brewing. We two old fellows need to stay in the imperial capital, keeping a watchful eye and preventing any unforeseen incidents from happening.
"As one of the Four Elders of Xuanyuan Pavilion, you're the most suitable person for this task. Firstly, your cultivation level is the highest, and secondly, your abilities are the strongest. I leave it to you."
"No, I have a lot of things to do."
What Ye Bufan wants to do now is develop Traditional Chinese Medicine. He's not interested in finding people at all.
"We agreed before, didn't we I joined the Xuanyuan Pavilion, and you can't force me to do anything."
"Well, we won't force you. It's up to you if you want to go or not."
Ye Bufan raised an eyebrow, sensing something was amiss. These two old men were both cunning and experienced. Could they have just let him, a free laborer, go so easily
And the two of them were laughing so slyly, it seemed like things weren't as simple as they appeared.
"Well then, I'm off!"
After he finished speaking, he glanced at Zhang Daoquan and Situ Changkong, then turned to leave. He thought that the best strategy was to run away, as long as he left, the trouble would be gone.
As he was selling it a few steps, suddenly there came from behind him Si Tu Chang Kong’s slightly teasing voice.
"By the way, there's something I forgot to tell you. A lot of resources have been poured into this case, with many places heavily involved in the investigation."
I heard there's a girl named He Shuangshuang from Jiangnan City in charge of this case. She suddenly went missing after arriving in Shanghai a few days ago, no one knows if she's dead or alive.peech, all their eyes fixed on He Changsheng.But He Changsheng didn't have any money in his pocket, so he didn't dare to bid.The auctioneer sighed, reluctantly lowering the hammer in his hand.Thus, th...
