Xia Ruofei's eyes inadvertently swept across the layer of pebbles in the fish tank. One of the black pebbles quickly caught Xia Ruofei's attention.
This pebble was about the size of an adult's fist. It looked very similar to the Boundary Stone that Xia Ruofei got last time.
One thing that was more obvious was that other pebbles were usually smoother due to the constant flow of water. However, this one was bumpy and seemed a little out of place in the water.
However, General Zhao Cheng was a general who didn't care about small things. He probably wouldn't care about this.
After confirming that the Boundary Stone he was looking for was in this fish tank, Xia Ruofei wasn't in a hurry anymore.
Zhao Cheng had already found the tea leaves — the top quality West Lake Longjing tea.
"Doctor Xia, how about some green tea? Green tea is healthy! "Zhao Cheng grinned and asked.
"I'm not picky about these. The guest will follow the host's wishes," Xia Ruofei said with a smile.
"Okay then! Green tea it is! "
Jin Feng quickly took the green tea and began to brew for everyone.
This young colonel obviously wasn't an expert at making tea. Although he knew the process of making Kung Fu tea, his movements were a little clumsy.
In the end, Song Rui couldn't stand it anymore. He stood up and said, "Colonel Jin, let me do it!"
Jin Feng's tanned face blushed slightly as he gave up his seat.
Song Rui had lived in Southeast Province for a few months. He had learned all the techniques of making Kung Fu tea. His movements were obviously more skilled than Jin Feng's.
Zhao Cheng's tea was indeed good. The room was filled with the aroma of tea.
Everyone chatted as they sipped their tea. After a while, an orderly ran over and saluted. He said loudly, "Chief of staff! The room is ready! "
"Good! Let's go! " Zhao Cheng put down his teacup and stood up. "Doctor Xia, do you want to drink some more tea or do you want to go for a checkup?"
Xia Ruofei laughed and stood up: "I didn't come to General Zhao's place to drink tea! Let's go! "
The orderly led the way. Soon, the group arrived in front of a room.
Xia Ruofei stopped, turned around and said, "General Zhao and I will go in. The rest of you wait outside!"
Jin Feng frowned slightly and said, "Dr. Xia, I'm the chief's personal guard. I have to be there!"
Xia Ruofei spread his hands and said, "I can't think of a reasonable reason why you have to be there. In the heavily guarded military administrative area, there are armed soldiers both inside and outside the villa. All the commanding heights within a few kilometers of the villa are your own people, right? What danger could General Zhao possibly be in? Are you suspecting me? "
"Of course not!" Jin Feng quickly said, "It's just that this is a security regulation …"
"Little Jin, that's enough!" Zhao Cheng waved his hand and said, "You wait at the door …"
"But …"
"What the f * ck!" Zhao Cheng said, "Do you have to be there when I and my wife are doing things inside? Bullshit! "
With that, Zhao Cheng pushed the door open and walked in.
In fact, because Xia Ruofei was an outsider, the personal guard couldn't let the chief out of his sight. But he couldn't say that.
Xia Ruofei's face was a little strange. Zhao Cheng's analogy made him feel a little strange.
However, he quickly followed her and closed the door behind him.
The room wasn't very big, but it was very elegantly decorated. There was a faint smell of incense in the air.
There was a single treatment bed against the wall.
Xia Ruofei looked carefully. There was a full set of Chinese medicine tools on the small table, including acupuncture needles of various sizes.
"Dr. Xia, do the conditions here meet your requirements?" Zhao Cheng asked.
Xia Ruofei smiled and nodded. "Yes. General Zhao, please sit down! Let me take your pulse first … "
Xia Ruofei had seen records of diabetes patients' pulse in medical books. But although he also had a special medical qualification certificate from Master Song, he didn't have the opportunity to practice. So, there were very few opportunities for practice. Xia Ruofei was also full of curiosity. He wanted to combine theory and practice on Zhao Cheng.
So, when Xia Ruofei took the pulse, he spent a little more time.
He compared Zhao Cheng's pulse with what he learned in medical books. When there was a match, his brows would naturally relax and he would nod slightly. When there was a difference, of course, it was inevitable that he would frown slightly. Sometimes, he would even shake his head, thinking that it was a little unbelievable.
In fact, it was a process of learning and verifying.
But these subtle changes in expression and movements were no different from signals in Zhao Cheng's eyes.
Zhao Cheng had just been diagnosed with diabetes and was nervous. So, when Xia Ruofei took his pulse, he had been paying attention to Xia Ruofei's expression.
Xia Ruofei frowned, smiled, and shook his head. Zhao Cheng's heart was in a mess, like a roller coaster. He didn't know how nervous he was.
It wasn't until Xia Ruofei gently let go of his hand that Zhao Cheng hurriedly asked, "Dr. Xia, is my disease particularly complicated and difficult to treat?"
Xia Ruofei looked at Zhao Cheng strangely and said, "No! General Zhao, why do you suddenly ask? "
Zhao Cheng said, "I … I saw you shaking your head and frowning. People who don't know would think that you have an incurable disease! This guy! It's too scary … "
Xia Ruofei froze for a moment and then laughed.
As he stood up, he said, "Okay, General Zhao, the examination is finished!"
"That's it?" Zhao Cheng couldn't believe it. "Don't you want to look at my stack of reports?"
"I can't understand Western medicine reports even if you give them to me." Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "Let's go! General Zhao, I know what to do. I'll go prepare the prescription. By the way, do you have common Chinese medicine here? "
"Yes!" Zhao Cheng said, "I have a Chinese medicine pharmacy on the first floor. You can go and get whatever medicine you need!"
"That's much more convenient!"
The two of them walked out of the door together. Jin Feng and Song Rui both came up to them.
"How is it?" Song Rui asked.
"No problem." Xia Ruofei said calmly, "I'll start the treatment today."
"By the way, General Zhao." Xia Ruofei suddenly turned around and asked, "Does your regulation say that as long as you have diabetes, you must be transferred from the front line combat post, or does it have to be serious to a certain extent? Is there a specific standard? "
Zhao Cheng smiled bitterly and said, "There is no specific standard, but generally speaking, if it can be controlled with medicine, then it's basically not a big problem. But for someone like me who has an insulin pump, it must be adjusted."
"I understand." Xia Ruofei nodded and said, "That is to say, my top priority is to treat your diabetes. As long as you don't need to use an insulin pump, then at least there will be no reason for you to be transferred, right?"
"Yes, yes!" Zhao Cheng said with some excitement, "Doctor Xia, do you really have a way? Then … how long will it take? "
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "If you want to cure it, it will take a little longer. But just to get rid of the insulin pump, it will take at most a week!"
"That's great!" Zhao Cheng clapped his hands and said excitedly, "Jin Feng, immediately take Doctor Xia to the pharmacy downstairs to get the medicine! If Doctor Xia has any requests, you must fully cooperate! "
Jin Feng also showed an excited expression. He struggled to stick out his chest and said, "Yes!"
Then he made an inviting gesture to Xia Ruofei and said, "Doctor Xia, please!"
Xia Ruofei said to Zhao Cheng, "General Zhao, you should have an empty room here, right? For the sake of the treatment, I will stay here for the next week. "
Xia Ruofei was still worried about the Boundary Stone! Before he got the Boundary Stone, Xia Ruofei didn't dare to leave the villa. He couldn't let the Boundary Stone leave the range of the Spiritual Map Scroll.
It's better to be safe than sorry.
If something really happened to the Boundary Stone in the next few days, such as Zhao Cheng losing it on a whim, or a guest suddenly leaving …
Although the possibility of such an accident was very low, Xia Ruofei would definitely not allow it to happen.
"Yes, yes, yes! There are plenty of rooms! " Zhao Cheng laughed and said, "I've already prepared one for Doctor Xia. You can stay for as long as you want!"
Xia Ruofei nodded and said to Song Rui, "Song Rui, you don't have to watch over here. Go do whatever you need to do. After you're done, go back to the three mountains! After the treatment here is over, I'll go back by myself. "
"Okay!" Song Rui nodded and said, "Then I'll leave Uncle Zhao to you!"
"Don't worry!" Xia Ruofei said, "When you go back, tell Master Song not to worry. I will definitely cure General Zhao's illness!"
"No problem! You go prepare the medicine first! The sooner you cure him, the sooner Uncle Zhao can rest assured. "Song Rui said.
"Okay!"
Jin Feng took Song Rui to the first floor.
Opening the door to a large room, Xia Ruofei suddenly smelled a familiar smell of Chinese medicine. A row of large cabinets almost took up a wall. The cabinets were full of small drawers, and each drawer had the name of the medicine written on it.
It was the kind of traditional Chinese medicine cabinet.
Xia Ruofei suspected that Zhao Cheng had really moved a Chinese medicine pharmacy from a military hospital here.
But he didn't care so much, as long as he had the medicine he needed.
"Motherwort … It's here! Where's the red peony? Damn … It's so high! Where's the ladder? Atractylodes atractylodes, kudzu root, haha, they're all here! Let me see, there's also ripe earth, wood, yam … "
Xia Ruofei talked to himself while quickly looking for the herbs he needed.
Encountering some herbs that were not easy to buy outside, or that he often used, Xia Ruofei didn't hesitate and directly put them into the Ring-Tu space.
In the space, Xia Qing naturally categorized them on the medicine shelves.
The Chinese medicine here was not only more complete, but the quality was also obviously higher than the ones sold outside. Xia Ruofei was even more certain that these must have come from a military hospital.
There was also a full set of decoction equipment in the room.
Xia Ruofei quickly used the selected herbs to decoct a medicinal soup. This was a prescription for promoting blood circulation and lowering blood sugar. Ordinary diabetics taking it would also have a certain benefit.
Of course, after Xia Ruofei added the ingredients, this bowl of medicinal soup was naturally different.
An ordinary bowl of blood circulation and lowering blood sugar soup directly became a "miracle medicine" that could treat or even cure diabetes.
Xia Ruofei pretended to be tired and opened the door.
Jin Feng immediately greeted him.
Xia Ruofei turned back and pointed to the bowl of medicinal soup on the table and said, "Find someone to bring it to General Zhao to drink. Colonel Jin, where is my room? I'm a little tired and need to rest. "
Jin Feng quickly called a capable soldier and asked him to carefully bring the bowl of medicine to General Zhao, while Jin Feng personally led Xia Ruofei back to his room.
The bedroom that Zhao Cheng prepared for Xia Ruofei was on the third floor. It was a very spacious room with a large balcony. The room also had a separate bathroom and even a large bathtub.
"Doctor Xia, is this room okay?" Jin Feng asked, "If you are not satisfied, I will adjust it for you."
"No need, no need!" Xia Ruofei quickly waved his hand and said, "This is very good. I'll take this room!"
"Well, Doctor Xia, you have worked hard. Rest first! I will call you when it's time to eat! "Jin Feng said, then saluted and turned to leave.
After Jin Feng left, Xia Ruofei called He Kun to ask about the situation. He Kun told him that Ceng Kewen wanted to see him in the afternoon.
Xia Ruofei told He Kun that he had moved out of the Rongcheng Hotel and that he had other things to do with Song Rui. He asked He Kun to return after he finished his business in Beijing and not to worry about him.
Hearing that Xia Ruofei had moved out of the hotel, He Kun felt that it was a bit sudden. However, he was now focused on Ceng Kewen's meeting with him, so he just said a few polite words. Then, he made an appointment with Xia Ruofei to have a good gathering after returning to Sanshan.
After the call with He Kun, Xia Ruofei called Feng Jing and Ling Qingxue respectively and told them that the project of the Heart-Nourishing Soup was very successful. However, he had other things to do in Beijing and would be delayed for about a week.
After that, Xia Ruofei took off his coat and leaned against the bed with his eyes closed. After a while, there was a knock on the door. Xia Ruofei shouted, "Come in!"
It was Colonel Jin Feng who came in. He saluted Xia Ruofei and said, "Doctor Xia, the chief asked me to invite you to dinner!"
"Thank you, Colonel Jin!" Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "Let's go!"
When the two of them arrived at the dining room, a sumptuous lunch had been prepared. The style was very obvious. It was all rough and big plates, and the quantity of each dish was far more than that of the restaurants outside.
Zhao Cheng stood up and took two steps forward and said, "Doctor Xia, come and eat!"
At noon, there were only two guests, Xia Ruofei and Song Rui. Including the host, Zhao Cheng, and Jin Feng, who accompanied him, there were a total of four people. However, there were at least 18 or 19 dishes on the big round table, and the quantity of each dish was frighteningly large.
Zhao Cheng warmly invited Xia Ruofei to sit on his right, and Song Rui naturally sat on his left.
Then, he personally unscrewed a precious 20-year-old bottle of Maotai and poured it for Xia Ruofei and Song Rui. Then, he poured a glass for himself, put the bottle on the table, and said, "Doctor Xia, Xiao Rui, the first toast is to the two of you! I, Old Zhao, was already in despair, but you gave me new hope! Regardless of whether it succeeds or not, Old Zhao is grateful to the two of you from the bottom of his heart! Come, let's toast! "
After that, Zhao Cheng raised his head and drank.
Xia Ruofei and Song Rui naturally didn't say anything and drank a glass with him.
After drinking a glass of wine, Song Rui couldn't help but frown and say, "Ruofei, I've been drinking your Drunken Eight Immortals recently. I really feel that Maotai doesn't taste like alcohol anymore …"
