Deep down, Ding Ning was just an ordinary person with no ambition and had never thought that he would reach such a height today.
He was not keen on fame and fortune, and his greatest wish was to reunite with his parents and relatives one day, open a small clinic, and live a simple life with his wife and children by his side.
But it seemed that it was God's will, and the reality forced him to the present situation step by step, forcing him to live a life that matched his original intention.
To put it bluntly, becoming a master of Martial Arts, magical spells, and even the bizarre inheritance of Chiyou were all auxiliary means to his success, not the goal.
His original intention had never changed, which was to become a doctor who saved lives and healed the wounded. He liked the sense of achievement after treating and saving people, which could make his heart feel the greatest happiness and satisfaction.
The profession of doctor was extremely sacred in Ding Ning's heart, and no one could blaspheme it.
As for quacks, they were a group of people that he hated the most. He would never allow himself to bring up a quack.
Therefore, the smile on Ding Ning's face faded, and he looked at Wen Rourou seriously. His clear eyes seemed to see through her real heart.
Wen Rourou looked at him without timidity. She had a clear conscience and no guilt in her heart. She really wanted to be a doctor, just like her first love, which made her heart beat fast, and she did not turn back and had no regrets in her life.
After a long time, Ding Ning saw her determination and courage, and he asked seriously, "Don't you regret it?"
"No!"
"Have you decided?"
"Yes."
"Well, drink this box first and let me see your sincerity."
Ding Ning pointed to the beer box on the ground, and he did not look joking at all.
Everyone's face changed because of this. There were 12 bottles of unopened beer in that box.
Although Wen Rourou was good at drinking, she was a girl after all, and she had drunk no less than two boxes of beer before. Wouldn't it kill her to drink another box?
Mosquito looked anxious and was about to speak, but she was stopped by Huzi, who looked solemn, and motioned for her not to speak.
One wanted to take Wen Rourou as her master, and the other wanted to test her. No matter how good their relationship with Wen Rourou was, it was not suitable for them to intercede at this time. Huzi believed that Ding Ning was a person who knew what to do.
Wei Biaobiao sipped his wine and looked at this scene. He reached out to stop several guys who wanted to speak, indicating that they should not meddle and just watch.
The Dao could not be imparted easily. The teacher — — the one who imparted the Dao to the student — must be willing to fight and endure. Would their pleas be of any use? Even if Ding Ning agreed out of consideration for his feelings, how could he teach him medical skills seriously? Having been apprenticed to a master before, he was naturally aware of this point.
Although the procedures for doctors and warriors to become apprentices were slightly different, the principles were the same. Ding Ning's medical skills were no worse than those national medical masters, and he might even be better. Compared to the various harsh and outrageous requirements those national medical masters put forward when they were apprentices, Ding Ning's test was very kind.
"I will drink!"
Wen Rourou just spat out these two words from her cherry lips. Then she picked up the can, opened the beer, and began to pour it into her mouth.
One bottle … three bottles … five bottles … seven bottles …
As if time had stopped, everyone was silent. Under the dim light of the night, they watched as the stubborn girl poured bottle after bottle into her mouth.
After drinking the eighth bottle, Wen Rourou felt dizzy, her stomach was bloated, and she felt pain. Her stomach churned, and her stomach kept surging to her throat.
"There are four bottles left. Hold on a little longer, and there are only four bottles left." Wen Rourou encouraged herself, took a deep breath, and picked up the ninth bottle.
A bottle of beer poured into his mouth.
"Puchi!"
After drinking a mouthful of wine, Wen Rourou couldn't help but spurt it out of her nostrils and mouth. With tears streaming down her face, she coughed violently.
Mosquito was so distressed that she burst into tears. She hurriedly stepped forward to support her, patted her back, and cried, "Don't drink anymore. Let's not worship him anymore, okay?"
"No, I must worship him as my teacher. My master said that he would not accept me until I finished this box, so I must finish it. Don't worry. I'm fine. I didn't drink too much."
Wen Rourou broke free from Mosquito's hand and reached for the beer, but unexpectedly, before she had time to drink, she opened her mouth and burped. Covering her mouth, she quickly walked to the roadside, squatted down, and vomited violently.
With red eyes, Mosquito held a bottle of mineral water, patted her back, and gargled her mouth after she finished vomiting.
After a long time, Wen Rourou calmed down, frowned, and continued to drink.
Ding Ning remained expressionless and did not even look at her, letting Mosquito cry and scold him for being so cruel.
Several girls also felt sorry for her and wanted to say something for her, but seeing Ding Ning's unapproachable face, no one dared to say anything.
Yagyuu Asamayu's little head had not figured out what was going on. Blinking her big eyes curiously, she looked at this and that …
She buried herself in her crayfish business again. For her, as long as she was with Ding Ning, nothing else mattered. Uh, except for delicious food.
Finally, Wen Rourou finished the last bottle of beer, staggered to Ding Ning, and stood solemnly. "I've finished it."
"You vomited just now, so it doesn't count. Drink another box."
Ding Ning's words were like a bolt from the blue and caused everyone to pale in shock.
Mosquito, who had been suppressing her temper, could not bear it anymore. Ignoring Huzi's pull, she rushed to Ding Ning with red eyes and scolded him angrily, "Are you f * cking sick? What's the big deal? Why do you make things difficult for a girl? "
Ding Ning raised his head, glanced at her lightly, ignored her, and looked at Wen Rourou. "Did you hear what I said?"
"Yes, I heard it."
Gritting her teeth, Wen Rourou continued to open the bottle.
Mosquito still wanted to lose her temper, but Huzi grabbed her, covered her mouth, and dragged her away. Mosquito kept hitting Huzi with tears, and Huzi let her hit him with a bitter smile.
"Brother …"
Ye Le weakly wanted to intercede, but being glared at by Ding Ning's cold eyes, she shrank back in fear and pouted aggrievedly. She felt that Ding Ning was so strange and scary today.
Ye Huan took her hand and shook her head at her, indicating that she should not say more. Ding Ning naturally had his reasons for doing so.
When Wen Rourou spat out the third bottle, everyone could not bear to watch it anymore. Feeling that Ding Ning was too unreasonable, they all said one after another,
"Brother Ning, just give her some face and forget it."
"Yes, Brother Ning, Rourou can't take it anymore."
"Brother Ning, don't torture her."
"If she wants to drink, I'll drink it for her."
"Yes, we'll drink it for her."
…
In everyone's pleading, Ding Ning, who had been expressionless, raised his head and looked around coldly. No one dared to look him in the eye.
"Can you drink it for her today? Can you drink it for her for a lifetime? Or can you make any decision for her? "
Everyone was speechless, and no one dared to answer him. Those who could make decisions for her were either her elders or her lovers. There were many people chasing after her, but few dared to say that they were her boyfriends.
Everyone looked at Wen Rourou, who turned a blind eye to all this. She even began to walk unsteadily, but she still stubbornly vomited … and drank … and vomited … and drank …
Ding Ning's expression was extremely serious, but his tone was a little gentler. He seemed to be explaining to everyone, but also seemed to be talking to himself. "The Tao can't be imparted easily. This is the rule passed down by our ancestors, and we can't make an exception just because we have a good relationship. I will never accept those who can't move me no matter how good they are, but as long as I accept them, it means that she has been recognized by me and is my successor. I will teach her everything I have learned without reservation. Maybe you won't understand and think that I am unreasonable, but compared with what she can learn in the future, do you still think that the sincerity of two boxes of beer is too much?"
"It's not too much. Not to mention two boxes of beer, even two boxes of liquor is not too much. Brother Ding, you want to test her determination by doing this; secondly, you want to teach her how to respect her teachers; thirdly, you want to tell her that there is no such thing as reaping without sowing in this world, and if you want to get something, you have to pay for it."
Wei Biaobiao suddenly opened his mouth and explained for Ding Ning.
Everyone showed a look of understanding, and Mosquito also stopped sobbing and looked at him thoughtfully.
But there were still many people who did not take it seriously and secretly curled their lips. Wei Biaobiao saw their expressions and said indifferently, "What do you think of Brother Ding's medical skills?"
"Brother Ning's medical skills are very good, and now my kidney is healthy."
Lu Tingzhen said with a cheeky smile. Everyone immediately roared with laughter, and Mosquito could not help but burst into laughter.
Wei Biaobiao shook his head with a wry smile and then said seriously, "What you know about Brother Ding's medical skills is just the tip of the iceberg, and I won't say more. You will understand it in the future."
Ding Ning shook his head. What Wei Biaobiao said was right, but he did not get to the point completely. In fact, he had never thought about taking Wen Rourou as his apprentice, but he just wanted to let Wen Rourou back off in the face of difficulties in this way.
She was born in a rich family and had been used to the life of a rich lady who had everything she needed, so she had the habit of having princess syndrome more or less. How could she bear hardships and anger?
Ding Ning thought that she just did it on a whim or out of vanity, enjoying the feeling of being moved by the gratitude of the patient, which was completely different from his understanding of the sacred profession of doctor. A doctor must have a benevolent heart of bemoaning the state of the universe and pitying the fate of mankind, as well as indomitable qualities and persevering determination.
He had thought that his unreasonable request would irritate Wen Rourou and make her lose her temper, and he could take the opportunity to refuse her request to be his apprentice. Even if they parted on bad terms, it was better than taking an irresponsible apprentice.
However, Wen Rourou's performance was beyond his expectations. At the very least, her attitude was very proper and she showed great respect for her teacher. This made him feel as if he had lifted a rock and dropped it on his own foot, but he also felt inexplicably comforted.
Wen Rourou seemed to be immersed in her own world and did not care about anything around her, with only the box of beer in her eyes.
She might have gotten used to it after vomiting. She had been drunk, but now she drank while vomiting, and the more she drank, the more energetic she became.
The second box of beer was finally finished, and Wen Rourou stood respectfully in front of Ding Ning. "I've finished it, but I vomited again. How about I drink another box?"
Ding Ning glanced at her and saw that her eyes were shining with expectation, so he could no longer refuse her. He reached out to pour a cup of tea and put it on the table. "Kneel down!"
The faces of Mosquito and others changed. "Kneel down to heaven, earth, and parents. What does it mean to ask a girl of the same age to kneel down?"
Wen Rourou also seemed to have not reacted, standing there in a daze, not knowing what to do.
Wei Biaobiao laughed and said, "Congratulations, Sister Rourou."
Wen Rourou, who was in a daze, suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and she knelt down with a "plop" in ecstasy, kowtowed three times respectfully, and picked up the teacup on the table with both hands. "Master, please drink tea!"
Everyone suddenly understood. "It turns out that this is the tea of apprenticeship. Among the five virtues of human relations, the heaven, the earth, the emperor, and the master, although the master ranks last, he must kowtow. But this apprenticeship ceremony is too simple."
