Three months ago, Lin Qinghua was the general manager of Blueprint Biotechnology Company, and then he had this strange disease. He always pretended to be an emperor and talked nonsense, and he became thinner day by day. Lin Qingyu was appointed to replace Lin Qinghua as the general manager at the critical and difficult moment. Before that, she was still studying at California College of the Arts in the United States, preparing to study for a bachelor of arts degree. She liked painting and photography instead of business, which seemed to be the reason why Lin Donghai and Fang Meiling preferred Lin Qinghua to her.
Lin Qinghua was a versatile man. He was not only a top student graduating from the biology department of Qing University, but also had obtained a doctorate in economics. He was involved in some important product development and technology upgrading in Blueprint Biotechnology Company. While Lin Donghai created Blueprint Biotechnology Company, it was Lin Qinghua who really made the company grow.
These were what Ning Tao learned from Lin Qingyu, but these were not the information he wanted. After a few moments of clearing his mind, Ning Tao said tentatively, "Miss Lin, think it over again. Does your brother's illness have anything to do with what he studies?"
Lin Qingyu paused for a moment and asked, "What is it?"
The "clay" and the circuit board found under Su Ya's bed were in his small medicine chest. Ning Tao really wanted to show them to her, but he gave up after a moment's consideration. The two things were very strange, and related to the disappearance of Su Ya. Besides, he had known Lin Qingyu less than a day. How could he easily believe her?
"Think about it for a second. For example, was your brother working on any new drugs or similar products before he got sick?"
Lin Qingyu thought for a moment before she answered, "I got it. My brother once told me that he started a project called 'ancestor seeking'."
"Ancestor seeking?" Su Ya's face, which was still a little childish, emerged in Ning Tao's mind. "Miss Lin, can you tell me what kind of project it is?"
Lin Qingyu shook her head and said, "I looked for the file of that project after my brother was ill, but I didn't find anything. I also asked the people involved at the company, but they told me they didn't know."
"Did your brother meet anyone special?"
"I don't know. I came back after he fell ill. I don't know much about his work." After a pause, Lin Qingyu inquired, "Does it have anything to do with my brother's illness?"
"I just want to find out why he's sick so I can give him right medicine," Ning Tao replied.
"Shall I ask my dad?"
"No," Ning Tao said. "I'll treat your brother right now. You go outside the door and keep watch. Don't let anyone in, including yourself. Remember, you must not come in without my permission."
"I want to see you treat my brother," Lin Qingyu said. "You can rest assured that I will be very careful not to interfere with your treatment."
"I have my rules when I treat patients," Ning Tao said. "If you want me to treat your brother, you must obey my rules. If you break my rules, I'll leave at once."
"All right, I'll watch the door." Lin Qingyu was reluctant, but she still left the room and closed the door when she went out.
Ning Tao came to the bedside after locking the door from inside.
Lin Qinghua lay in bed, looked at the ceiling and said to himself, "How dare you murder my dear concubine! I will kill you... Honey, wait for me, I will come to you soon..."
Ning Tao waked up another model of his eyes and nose. In a moment he saw the bluish and misty air released from Lin Qinghua, and smelled the mud again.
Because of the time and environment in the front yard just now, he did not find the lesion on Lin Qinghua or the cause of his illness with his skills of looking and smelling. Now he would try again.
Lin Qinghua still stared at the ceiling with a dull look in his eyes and mumbled to himself, but now Ning Tao couldn't hear him.
Ning Tao's eyes and nose were locked on Lin Qinghua, and he looked and smelled for the cause and focus of Lin Qinghua's illness again and again.
But he failed again.
Then he tried, but still failed.
After a few failures, for a brief moment, something blue appeared on Lin Qinghua's forehead. It looked like a bluish nematode worm.
"What's that?" Ning Tao's heart was filled with surprise, but when he tried to look at it clearly, the little bluish thing disappeared again.
He tried a few more times, but the little bluish thing seemed to hide and never come out again.
Lin Qinghua suddenly began, "I think of her silver clothing at the sight of drifting clouds and her stunning appearance at the sight of flowers. The spring wind flows across the corridor while peonies are set off by the glittering dews. Even if I didn't see you on Qunyu Mountain, I would meet you under the moonlight of the abode of immortals."
A guess suddenly occurred to Ning Tao. "This is a poem written by Li Bai to Yang Yuhuan. Lin Qinghua claims to be the emperor and calls dear concubine all the time. Does he think he is Emperor Xuanzong of Tang, and his dear concubine is Yang Yuhuan?" He whispered. Then he looked at Lin Qinghua and said, "Even if you're crazy, you're still cultured. Is Yang Yuhuan really as beautiful as the book says?"
Lin Qinghua ignored Ning Tao and repeated Li Bai's poem.
Ning Tao opened the medicine chest and took out the ledger of bamboo slips. Then he grabbed Lin Qinghua's hand and put it on the ledger.
"What are you doing? How dare you touch me?" Lin Qinghua snapped.
Ning Tao ignored him and turned to open the ledger.
A paragraph of text appeared on the ledger, "Go against the heaven to make a body. He was not a demon but became a new demon. He owns 49 points of sins of evil intention. The prescription pact for sins of evil intention will be helpful. He has to destroy the research of 'ancestor seeking' and kill the roots of demon..."
The contents of the ledger of bamboo slips surprised Ning Tao, too. He only found a trace of bluish thing, but the "bill" given by the ledger pointed directly to Lin Qinghua's scientific research project ancestor seeking. So did this mean that Lin Qinghua was secretly doing research against the ways of Heaven before he got sick? Most likely, Lin Qinghua had used the drugs that had not yet been successfully administered to himself!
Ning Tao heard the "new demon" for the first time. He was more curious about this term on the ledger of bamboo slips than about Lin Qinghua's project of ancestor seeking.
"If there's a new demon, there should be an old one... What's the new demon? What's the old demon?" Ning Tao thought in his heart. His mind was full of imagination, but it was just a fantasy. He had never seen the traditional "old demon", but this "new demon" gave him the impression of a psychopath.
That the prescription for sins of evil intention could help him meant his illness was curable. However, Ning Tao didn't dare to easily draw a blood lock and take Lin Qinghua to the Sky Clinic to treat him with a prescription for sins of evil intention, because once he wrote out a prescription for sins of evil intention and cured Lin Qinghua's disease, Lin Qinghua must destroy the plan of ancestor seeking. The problem was that the president of Blueprint Biotechnology Company was not Lin Qinghua but Lin Donghai. Moreover, this matter also involved the mysterious disappearance of Su Ya. He must investigate this before he prescribed for sins of evil intention.
"Where are you, honey? I miss you so much..." Lin Qinghua whispered, tears rolling down his cheeks.
No one had expected he, who was healthy and normal, to be like this. Infected, Ning Tao felt a little sad. Then he put the ledger back in the medicine chest, and took out the bluish "clay" and the fingernail-sized circuit board that he had found under Su Ya's bed and held them to Lin Qinghua. "Li Longji, do you know the two things?" He asked.
Lin Qinghua took a look at the bluish "clay" and circuit board on Ning Tao's hand, and then murmured again, "I think of her silver clothing at the sight of drifting clouds and her stunning appearance at the sight of flowers. The spring wind flows across the corridor while the peonies are set off by the glittering dews. Even if I didn't see you on Qunyu Mountain, I would meet you under the moonlight of the abode of immortals."
Unwilling to give up, Ning Tao continued, "Emperor Xuanzong of Tang, I'm talking to you. Look at these two things. Do you recognize them?"
Lin Qinghua still muttered to himself, "I feel lonely, honey..."
Ning Tao gave up with a wry smile. He put the ledger back in the medicine chest and went to open the door.
Lin Qingyu came into the door and asked anxiously, "Doctor Ning, how is my brother?"
"There's something special about his condition. I didn't cure your brother, but I found the cause of his illness," Ning Tao replied.
"What's the cause of my brother's illness?"
"Your brother's illness because of his research," Ning Tao said. "He gave himself the drugs he studied. To cure your brother, I must first know what he has studied."
"Now that you've found the cause of my brother's illness, there must be some way you can cure him, can't you?" Lin Qingyu was excited. "You promised you'd cure my brother!"
"As I said before, I can't promise to cure your brother, but I'll do my best."
"How can you say you tried your best when you didn't even treat my brother?"
"It's not hard for me to cure your brother, but I have one condition," Ning Tao said. "Your brother's project of ancestor seeking must be destroyed."
"What did you say? The ancestor seeking must be destroyed?" Lin Qingyu was very surprised.
Ning Tao repeated, "My condition is that your brother's project of ancestor seeking must be destroyed."
Lin Qingyu stared at Ning Tao and cried, "Are you kidding? How could a doctor make such a request? You are a doctor, and it's your duty to cure the sickness to save the patient. How could you come up with this offer? This project has nothing to do with you, does it?"
Ning Tao said dryly, "Yeah, I'm a doctor, but I have my rules. Think about it. Look for me when you agree."
"You..." Lin Qingyu got a little angry, but she was afraid to offend Ning Tao.
"That's it. Contact me when you think it over. Bye." Ning Tao left the room with the small medicine chest.
In the living room, Lin Donghai and Fang Meiling were in turn lobbying Jiang Yilong to sell the land to Blueprint Biotechnology Company.
"I told you I would sell you the land if Master Ning agreed, and if Master Ning didn't agree, I won't sell it to you even if you give me ten times the price," Jiang Yilong stressed impatiently. He had repeated the sentence several times.
At this moment Ning Tao walked into the living room.
"Doctor Ning is out!" Fang Meiling was the first to spot Ning Tao, and she hurried up to him. "Doctor Ning, how's my son?"
"His situation is a little complicated," Ning Tao said. "Go and ask Miss Lin for information. She knows what's going on."
Puzzled, Fang Meiling asked, "You're the doctor, and you know your patients best. Why do you want us to talk to Qingyu?"
"Goodbye." Ning Tao walked to the door carrying his medicine chest without explanation.
"You... " Fang Meiling restrained the words which sprang to her lips.
Lin Donghai stared at Ning Tao's back with a hit of contempt tugging at the corner of his mouth. He didn't say anything, but his eyes at the moment fully expressed what he wanted to say— from the very beginning, he didn't treat Ning Tao as a doctor who could treat patients, but as a quack doctor who lived by cheating people.
"Master Ning! Wait for me!" Jiang Yilong got up and went after Ning Tao.
Lin Donghai reached for Jiang Yilong in a hurry, but Jiang Yilong pushed him away violently.
"How dare you want to buy my land when you've offended Master Ning?" Jiang Yilong swore in his heart.
"You wish!"

"You promised you'd cure my brother!""As I said before, I can't promise to cure your brother, but I'll do my best.""How can you say you tried your best when you didn't even treat my brother?""It's not hard for me to cure your brother, but I have one condition," Ning Tao said. "Your brother's project of ancestor seeking must be destroyed.""What did you say? The ancestor seeking must be destroyed?" Lin Qingyu was very surprised.Ning Tao repeated, "My condition is that your brother's project of ancestor seeking must be destroyed."Lin Qingyu stared at Ning Tao and cried, "Are you kidding? How could a doctor make such a request? You are a doctor, and it's your duty to cure the sickness to save the patient. How could you come up with this offer? This project has nothing to do with you, does it?"Ning Tao said dryly, "Yeah, I'm a doctor, but I have my rules. Think about it. Look for me when you agree.""You..." Lin Qingyu got a little angry, but she was afraid to offend Ning Tao."That's it. Contact me when you think it over. Bye." Ning Tao left the room with the small medicine chest.In the living room, Lin Donghai and Fang Meiling were in turn lobbying Jiang Yilong to sell the land to Blueprint Biotechnology Company."I told you I would sell you the land if Master Ning agreed, and if Master Ning didn't agree, I won't sell it to you even if you give me ten times the price," Jiang Yilong stressed impatiently. He had repeated the sentence several times.At this moment Ning Tao walked into the living room."Doctor Ning is out!" Fang Meiling was the first to spot Ning Tao, and she hurried up to him. "Doctor Ning, how's my son?""His situation is a little complicated," Ning Tao said. "Go and ask Miss Lin for information. She knows what's going on."Puzzled, Fang Meiling asked, "You're the doctor, and you know your patients best. Why do you want us to talk to Qingyu?""Goodbye." Ning Tao walked to the door carrying his medicine chest without explanation."You... " Fang Meiling restrained the words which sprang to her lips.Lin Donghai stared at Ning Tao's back with a hit of contempt tugging at the corner of his mouth. He didn't say anything, but his eyes at the moment fully expressed what he wanted to say from the very beginning, he didn't treat Ning Tao as a doctor who could treat patients, but as a quack doctor who lived by cheating people."Master Ning! Wait for me!" Jiang Yilong got up and went after Ning Tao.Lin Donghai reached for Jiang Yilong in a hurry, but Jiang Yilong pushed him away violently."How dare you want to buy my land when you've offended Master Ning?" Jiang Yilong swore in his heart."You wish!"
