Chapter Sixty-Two: Snake Slough Pan Jiayuan

Breakfast started in an awkward atmosphere and ended in an awkward atmosphere. None of the three mentioned what happened last night, or they would die of embarrassment.

After eating something in a hurry, Jiang Hao put down the bowl and chopsticks and left.

Tang Zhen asked, "Where are you going?"

"Go to work." Jiang Hao hurriedly walked, and when she walked to the door and opened the door, she looked back at Ning Tao who was still sitting at the dining table, "Come out, I have something to tell you."

Ning Tao didn't know why but turned his eyes to Tang Zhen.

Tang Zhen showed Ning Tao a harmless smile, "I don't want you to accompany me, I asked the sisters in the community to go shopping."

Ning Tao, "..."

When did he say he wanted to accompany her?

Tang Zhen urged: "Hurry up, you young people, go and play. It is rare for you to come to Beidu once. Let Jiang Hao accompany you to visit the Forbidden City Museum, the Great Wall, Yongwang Mansion and so on. If you don't come back at night, give me Just send a text message..."

"Goodbye, Auntie." Ning Tao didn't dare to listen any more, put down his bowl and chopsticks, got up and left, and took his small medicine box as he passed by the sofa.

Tang Zhen said with a smile: "Go out and play, be safe, goodbye."

What does it mean to be safe?

Ning Tao went out the door as if fleeing.

Jiang Hao waited for Ning Tao to walk into the corridor before saying to her mother, "It's all your bad idea!"

Tang Zhen spread her hands, "Blame me?"

The door slammed shut.

In the corridor, Ning Tao stopped, thinking about how to explain, but when Jiang Hao came down and stood in front of him, he didn't know how to speak.

Jiang Hao stared at Ning Tao, without saying a word, just watched, with fierce eyes, as if Ning Tao owed her hundreds of thousands.

Ning Tao couldn't match her eyes, and said awkwardly: "That..."

That what, gone.

Jiang Hao finally spoke, "Last night..."

Nothing last night.

Ning Tao had an idea, he smiled, "What happened last night?"

"Last night..." Jiang Hao finally said, "I was drunk last night, did I say anything?"

"I... I don't know, I'm drunk too..." Ning Tao coughed and asked wittily, "Did you say anything last night?"

Jiang Hao blushed slightly, and then changed the subject, "I don't think so, forget it, let's not talk about it. I called you out to tell you something, I'm going to fly tonight Shancheng continues to follow up the project of finding ancestors." After a pause, she added, "Don't tell anyone what I'm going to say next, can you promise me?"

Ning Tao nodded.

Jiang Hao leaned into Ning Tao's ear, "I just received the news this morning that the ancestral search project will be restarted. The Liang Keming you met will become the person in charge of the new ancestral search project. Lin Qinghua is also very likely Asked to join the project team."

Ning Tao said in surprise: "That's a dangerous research, why do we have to restart it? Moreover, Lin Qinghua has closed the ancestry project and promised not to touch it again, why should he join?"

Jiang Hao smiled bitterly, "Nuclear bombs shouldn't exist at all, but human beings have still researched it, and are still working hard to make it. The ancestor hunting project is almost of a nature, and you and I can't stop it at all. But you, You just cured Lin Qinghua's doctor, this matter has nothing to do with you, so you should stop participating. Also, you'd better not have any contact with Lin Qinghua anymore, or you will cause unnecessary trouble."

"Is Lin Qinghua under surveillance?" Ning Tao asked.

Jiang Hao said: "Leave it alone, you came to ask about his situation as soon as I closed my mouth, do you know that you are causing trouble?"

"Okay, I won't ask, and I don't care about it." Ning Tao said, but he said that, but he had another idea in his heart.

The murdering old man has not been arrested yet, but the mysterious motorcycle rider asked him to meet again on "the fifteenth night of the lunar month". He gave Jiang Hao the formula of two balls of spiritual soil and the ancestral medicine,

Then he cured the new demon Lin Qinghua, he was already deeply trapped in this vortex, how could he get out if he wanted to?

What's more, he didn't think about getting out at all. He is a born middleman between good and evil, the owner of the Tianwai Clinic, how could he avoid such difficulties and troubles? Not only will he not hide, he will also take the initiative to attack! A very simple reason is, if there is no conflict between good and evil in this world, is it necessary for him, the owner of the extraterrestrial clinic, to exist? If the real world is peaceful, he will be finished.

But he couldn't tell Jiang Hao such a secret.

Jiang Hao didn't know what Ning Tao was thinking. She said, "It's good that you understand, and I'm relieved. I'm going to the bureau to make a report, and then fly back to the mountain city at night to continue my mission. You and I Let's go back to the mountain city."

Ning Tao thought for a while, "I can't go back yet, I have to give Zhao Wushuang a second treatment the day after tomorrow, and I haven't received the herbs that Fan Huaying promised to buy for me, I'll go back to the mountain city after these two things are settled. "

"Well, I'll wait for you in the mountain city." Jiang Hao looked at the small medicine box in Tao's hand, and said, "Where are you going now? I still have some time, I'll see you off."

Ning Tao said: "You don't have to worry about me, you can go to your own business, I want to go to the Forbidden City Museum to have a look."

"Okay then, call me if you need something." Jiang Hao left this sentence and left.

Jiang Hao drove away, and Ning Tao called a Didi special car to go to the Forbidden City Museum.

When he arrived at the Forbidden City Museum, Ning Tao retreated when he saw several long dragons standing in front of the ticket office, and then he saw a notice board about contraband, and suddenly remembered that the dagger that Ding Ye gave him for safekeeping was also a contraband. He couldn't bring it in at all, so he gave up the idea and left with a small medicine box.

Jingle bell, jingle bell...

When he was standing on the side of the road and was about to call a car, his mobile phone rang suddenly. Ning Tao took out his mobile phone and glanced at it before answering the call.

"Brother Huaying, it's me, please tell me if you have anything to say." Ning Tao said politely.

Fan Huaying's voice came from the mobile phone, "Brother Ning, I called to tell you that the medicinal materials are almost ready, but there are two differences, one is called blood bamboo, and the other is called white slough. Master Qingshui said that he has chickens there. Blood bamboo, he has already ordered his disciples to fetch it, and it will take a day for him to hand it to you in person, I think he wants to meet you once, is that okay?"

Ning Tao said: "No problem, can I find another kind of white snake slough?"

Fan Huaying's voice said, "Snake slough is snake skin, which is available in traditional Chinese medicine pharmacies. Do you have to have a white snake? I checked, it is a white snake with albinism, it is extremely rare, and what you want is a 50-year-old snake." A normal snake has a lifespan of more than ten years, and the longest lifespan is only thirty or forty years. This is too difficult... Do you really want a white snake that is fifty years old?"

Ning Tao said: "Yes, is there a way?"

Fan Huaying was silent for a moment before saying: "Forgive me for being incompetent, I have inquired about everyone I can, and I have used all the connections I can use. I can find a live white snake for you, but a fifty-year-old white slough... etc!"

Ning Tao's heart moved, and he said anxiously: "Have you found the way?"

"Brother Ning, if you don't believe me, I just received a text message..."

"say what?"

"The man said that he has a fifty-year-old white snake slough, but he wants you to find him yourself." Fan Huaying said.

"Where is he?"

"Panjiayuanzi, that's a market selling antiques. The man said that if you go, he will meet you."

"I'll go right away," Ning Tao said.

"I'll come over right away. Let's meet at Panjiayuanzi, and then go meet that person together." Fan Huaying hung up the phone.

Ning Tao was actually very curious as to why Fan Huaying received such a text message suddenly, as if the person who sent the text message knew that he urgently needed these medicinal materials, but Fan Huaying had already hung up the phone and would only ask him when we met.

Ning Tao hailed a taxi and went straight to Panjiayuanzi.

There is no real northerner who does not know Panjiayuanzi, which existed at the end of the Qing Dynasty. At that time, it was called "ghost market". The down-and-out nobles of the Qing court and the dilapidated rich were unable to make ends meet in the turbulent situation. They could only survive by selling the family property left by their ancestors. But these aristocrats, descendants of officials and rich people couldn't let go of their faces, so they took antiques and set up street stalls to sell them before dawn. Ghost City". Now, this ghost market has developed into an antique market with an annual turnover of billions.

These are all the information Ning Tao found on Baidu in the taxi. Before that, he didn't even know that there was such a place as Panjiayuan in this world, let alone its history. He couldn't figure out why that person would choose this place to meet, but the medicinal materials for refining the primary prescription pills were related to his wealth and life, and he couldn't care less about that.

The taxi stopped on the side of the road, Ning Tao paid the fare and got out of the car, then entered Panjiayuan.

Panjiayuan was crowded with people, and there were stalls on both sides of the road, bronze objects, ancient coins, porcelain, jade, etc., which made people dazzled. There are also walnuts, bracelets, gourds and wooden carvings, the number of which is countless.

"Young man, do you sell your wooden box?" Before Ning Tao got used to the noisy environment, an old man caught his eye on the small medicine box in Ning Tao's hand.

Ning Tao glanced at the old man, "Not for sale."

"Let's make a price. If the price is right, I'll buy it for you." The old man didn't give up.

Ning Tao was too lazy to bother with him, so he carried the small medicine box and walked to the depths, looking for people who wanted to meet him while walking.

Before he could take a few steps, the old man chased after him, and his voice changed, "Are you the one looking for the white slough?"

Ning Tao stopped and looked at the old man.
