624 A Sleeping Person Awakening Every Three Days (1/2)
”Oh, my brother-in-law, you can even pick up poker cards,” the guest said. ”You have no problem.”
Playing poker required close cooperation between two hands, each of which were indispensable.
”Well, yes, the doctor also said so. He asked to see me go again in a month.” He Shili smiled. His fingers were not fully recovered and still a little inflexible. But, with consistent practice, he would recover completely.
”How much did it cost?” the guest asked.
”$1,000 in total. $200 each visit,” He Shili said.
”That's not expensive. As long as it can be cured, it is worth $10,000 let alone just $1,000,” the guest said.
”Yes, I think so,” He Shili's daughter said.
”Your doctor must be very skillful,” the guest said. ”Where is he from?”
”In Wang Jia Village, Songbai Town. It's a mountain village,” He Shili said.
”Well, I should write that down,” the guest said. ”This problem is quite common. A few days ago, Zhao Hongying fell down and couldn't stand up. But, brother-in-law, you have to pay attention to it. Tell us immediately if you feel any discomfort. Last time, you fell asleep, so treatment was delayed.”
”Oh, yes, I will pay attention to it,” He Shili said.
The family was very happy, especially He Shili. Health was more important than anything and the most worthy of happiness.

In Jing…
”My princess, where do you want to go?” Song Ruiping had found that her daughter recently had no appetite for food and drinks. She seemed bored and wanted to take a trip.
”I want to go to Lianshan County,” Su Xiaoxue said without hesitation.
”Where?” Song Ruiping was amazed. ”What are you going to do there? Look for Wang Yao?”
”Yes, I have a problem with my practice. I need to consult Mr. Wang,” Su Xiaoxue said.
”Problem? What is it? Is it serious?” Song Ruiping hurriedly asked.
She was not in favor of her daughter's practice of neixi. Although the two elders said it was what countless people asked for, she was still worried something would happen to her daughter. She had euphemistically mentioned it a few times, but her daughter was decisive. So, she did not try to persuade her again. It seemed now something had happened.
”It's not serious. Don't worry.” Su Xiaoxue smiled.
”Are you trying to scare me?” Song Ruiping saw her daughter laughing and knew what she was thinking. ”Ask Chu Lian to accompany you tomorrow.”
”OK, Mom, you must love me!” Su Xiaoxue was happy as she hugged her mother.
”You are really sweet, but there is one point. When you go out, you have to listen to Chu Lian,” Song Ruiping said.
”I will,” Su Xiaoxue said.
Ah! Song Ruiping sighed softly.
…
In the mountain village, it was raining. It was a fine spring rain.
A group of cars entered the mountain village. They were all luxury cars. There was even a touring car, which was a rare sight in this small county. Many people in the village came out with an umbrella to watch.
”Where are they from? He must be a wealthy man,” a villager said.
”It seems they are looking for Fenghua's to see a doctor,” another villager said.
”Hey, rich people are different. Is that an RV?” another villager asked.
This was the first time most people in the village had seen a real RV.
Sun Yunsheng came down from the car and entered the clinic since he had already told Wang Yao he was coming. ”Sir, sorry to bother you.”
”Is he coming?” Wang Yao asked.
”He just outside,” Sun Yunsheng said.
”Have him come in,” Wang Yao said.
Sun Yunsheng went out and said something to the people. The car door opened. Someone was lifted out. Several strong men carried the bed while one held an umbrella. The patient was covered with a quilt.
”Goodness, who is that?” a villager asked.
”He must be a very rich man,” another villager said.
There were more and more onlookers.
The brawny men were very skilled and quick, which showed that this was not the first time they had done this task. The patient was carried into Wang Yao's clinic.
The man's cheeks were thin. It seemed like he was only skin and bones. His face was as white as paper. He was in a state of drowsiness and had almost no breath.
”Doctor Wang, this is Zheng Shixiong, Mr. Zheng,” Sun Yunsheng said.
