Chapter 11: Master Xiaobao
"Xiao Tang, what's going on? Do you have any solution?"
Zhong Aimin looked expectant.
Tang Xiaobao shook his head and sighed, "This disease—I guess ordinary doctors really can't save him. In another 24 hours, he'll be gone!"
"What did you say?"
Ma Ming's face changed drastically, and he glared at Tang Xiaobao fiercely: "How dare you curse my daughter to death? Boy, do you know who I am? You are courting death!"
Zhong Aimin quickly stepped in to smooth things over.
Ma Ming suddenly became like a deflated ball. He squatted in front of the hospital bed, grabbing his head with both hands. He was in great pain, muttering to himself and crying.
It is so touching that a man loves his daughter like this!
Tang Xiaobao couldn't help but say, "Hey, listen to me, it's not completely impossible to save your daughter."
Ma Ming immediately looked up and stared at Tang Xiaobao with eager eyes.
"Hey, hey, hey, let me make this clear first. I'm only 60% sure I can cure this disease. It's up to you whether to treat it or not. If something unexpected happens, you can't blame me for not warning you."
Ma Ming looked conflicted.
Tang Xiaobao added, "Don't worry, take your time to think about it. She'll be fine today anyway. Come back to me when you've made up your mind. But there's one thing you must understand: doctors really can't cure this disease."
After saying that, Tang Xiaobao was about to leave immediately without caring whether Zhong Aimin and Ma Ming understood or not.
Unexpectedly, just as he reached the door, Ma Ming grabbed him back.
"Let go, let go, what are you doing? If you keep doing this, I won't care anymore." Tang Xiaobao said angrily: "No matter how powerful you are, even if you kill me afterwards, no one will be able to save your daughter."
Ma Ming quickly let go, somewhat at a loss: "I dare not, I dare not, how could I kill people indiscriminately? I am a serious businessman. But, are you really sure you can save my daughter?"
Tang Xiaobao said cautiously, "Sixty percent sure."
"Let's try our best. Sixty percent is sixty percent." Ma Ming paused and finally made up his mind. Now he had no other choice but to try it out... This was a bit weird.
Tang Xiaobao was still worried: "What if something unexpected happens?"
"Don't worry, I, Ma Ming, am not an unreasonable person. If you really try your best, I will never cause you any trouble." Ma Ming promised.
Tang Xiaobao was still a little uneasy and hesitant for a moment.
If he doesn't save her, such a young beauty will surely die, which he can't do. But if he saves her, he might lose his life.
He didn't believe Ma Ming's current guarantee.
Ma Ming was anxious: "I swear to God, no matter whether I succeed or not, I will not bother you. As long as you can save my daughter, you can ask for any conditions, and I will definitely meet them. Even if I have to give you half of my property, I will definitely not hesitate."
Tang Xiaobao waved his hand: "Let's talk about this later. Now I want to understand the patient's condition. Can we talk alone?"
Zhong Aimin felt as if he had been pardoned and hurried out with the others.
"Just ask whatever you want to ask." Ma Ming loved his daughter so much that he was restless.
Tang Xiaobao hesitated for a moment, then finally decided to tell the truth: "Your daughter's illness is called ghost possession. Ordinary doctors really can't cure it. Her Yin Qi is being absorbed by the ghost. If she doesn't survive for another day, she will definitely die."
When saying these words, Tang Xiaobao never thought that Ma Ming would believe it. After all, just yesterday, he still thought that there were no ghosts in this world.
But now, he believed it.
Last night, Tang Xiaobao's mind was flooded with information, including information about the classification of ghosts. For example, there are two types of ghosts: lonely ghosts and psychic ghosts. The former are further divided into several levels, while the latter can cultivate and, if they pass the test of heavenly tribulation, become ghost immortals... Oh, and ghosts can also get sick...
To his surprise, Ma Ming also believed it.
Ma Ming's reaction was very calm, as if he had suddenly lost his temper, with a bitter look on his face: "So she really is possessed by a ghost. Oh, it seems my daughter is really hopeless."
Tang Xiaobao opened his eyes wide: "You actually believe that there are ghosts in this world?"
"I believe it. I've even seen someone catch ghosts before. It's a pity that the master died in a car accident last year. Otherwise, I would have asked him to do it even if it cost a lot of money!"
Ma Ming fell directly to the ground, not like a boss who was well-versed in the business world at all, with tears and snot streaming down his face.
Tang Xiaobao didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and angrily said, "How can you be like this? You don't want me to save your daughter?"
"ah?"
Ma Ming immediately jumped up, grabbed Tang Xiaobao's neck again, and said hurriedly: "Yes, yes, yes, you said you could save my daughter. You have a way, right? Right?"
Cough cough cough...
Tang Xiaobao nearly fainted again. Fortunately, Ma Ming let go in time and stood aside. His expression became anxious, like a child who had done something wrong facing his teacher. He glanced at Tang Xiaobao cautiously and apologized repeatedly.
Tang Xiaobao regained his breath and wanted to curse, but when he saw Ma Ming's expression, he couldn't bring himself to curse.
But this time he learned his lesson, stepped back a few steps, and said cautiously: "I can save your daughter, but don't get excited yet. Now is not the time. Take your daughter back first, and then prepare some things I might need..."
After hearing Tang Xiaobao's words, Ma Ming felt more at ease. He treated Tang Xiaobao very carefully, calling him "Master" all the time, which made Tang Xiaobao feel a little embarrassed.
Hey, baby, you're just a big liar. Is it really okay for you to hold me like this? Is it really okay?
Well, actually it sounds pretty cool!
…
Ma Ming brought his daughter back to his villa, and of course, invited Master Xiaobao over as well.
For the whole day, Tang Xiaobao lived like a god. Ma Ming arranged for people to prepare what Tang Xiaobao needed, and he brought a few bodyguards to serve him carefully.
Tang Xiaobao was so happy to hear him call him "Master" all the time!
Tang Xiaobao finally figured out Ma Ming's situation. It turned out that Ma Ming was the largest real estate boss in the county and a person who was well-connected in both the black and white worlds. But when he saw Ma Ming's current appearance, he was extremely moved.
He was a black and white demon, but now he looks so humble, which makes people feel uneasy.
However, Tang Xiaobao also saw that Ma Ming was a man of true character, with a rough yet delicate personality, absolutely righteous, and extremely trustworthy. Because of this, he felt a little relieved.
In fact, Tang Xiaobao was 80% sure of saving Ma Ming's daughter. He deliberately kept it a secret in the hospital, but what if it was 80%? What if something unexpected happened? He had never experienced such a thing and was not sure about it.
Don't be afraid of ten thousand things, just be safe!
Finally, it was midnight and the room was quiet. Only Tang Xiaobao and Ma Ming were left in the room, and the bodyguards were sent away.
Tang Xiaobao opened the suitcase and his eyes lit up.
Bronze mirror, peach wood sword, mung beans, cinnabar, brush, talisman paper, whisk, a bottle of dog blood, a bottle of rooster blood, willow branches...
All the things the Taoist priests use for rituals are here.
