Chapter 1271
During this period, knowing that he had no hope of a comeback, Tinipei left the room in disgrace while the others were no longer paying attention to him.
However, Odek, who came with Tinipei, chose to stay. It was extremely rare for him to meet Ye Xiao this time, so he must not leave so easily.
Mei Tianqi also wanted to do the same thing, intending to sneak away with his head down after Tinipei, but just as he took a step, he felt a cold gaze staring at him.
Without turning his head to look, Mei Tianqi knew who this person was. After a shudder, he dared not move again.
Not to mention that the Nemo family where Davika was located had a huge influence in the Elephant Country, it was said that Davika and Ye Xiao had saved the lives of the Basong family. As long as Davika said a word, it was possible that he, who almost killed Basong, would be chopped alive by Tessa.
While everyone was waiting for the servants of the Basong family to get the medicine, Tessa respectfully asked Ye Xiao: "Mr. Ye, I can't figure out why there is a centipede in my father's body? Did someone poison him?"
After Tessa finished speaking, except for Odek and Mei Tianqi, two doctors who realized it later and made inferences, everyone else in the room looked at Ye Xiao curiously, waiting for Ye Xiao to answer.
Ye Xiao smiled calmly and said: "The centipede in Mr. Basong's body is poisonous but not poisonous. I guess it should be caused by Mr. Basong who accidentally ate centipede eggs when eating some cold food some time ago."
Hearing this, Tessa's pupils suddenly opened, as if she thought of something. As Ye Xiao said, her father did eat some sashimi not long ago, and it was probably at that time that he ate the centipede eggs!
At this time, Odek also stepped forward and asked respectfully: "Mr. Ye, I also have a question that I can't figure out. I hope Mr. Ye can answer it for me."
"These days, I have also read a lot of books about Dragon Country Chinese Medicine, which also have some records about the Thirteen Ghost Gate Needles, but the content I read all says that this acupuncture method is used to exorcise evil spirits and remove filth."
"Why can the young centipede in Mr. Basong's body be forced out by you using the Thirteen Ghost Gate Needles?"
This question is not only puzzled by Odek, but Mei Tianqi is also very interested. After Odek finished speaking, Mei Tianqi also pricked up his ears and wanted to listen to Ye Xiao's explanation.
Ye Xiao still has a good impression of Odek. If this guy hadn't cooperated today, I'm afraid he wouldn't have had the opportunity to take action!
So Ye Xiao said frankly: "You are right. In most books, the Thirteen Ghost Needles are recorded as having the effect of expelling evil spirits and removing filth. Most people only understand it literally."
"But the effect of the Thirteen Ghost Needles is not just that. Since there was no concept of parasites in ancient times, the ancient people of Longguo also regarded parasites that grew in the human body for various reasons as evil filth."
"In the history of Longguo, there is a story about the miracle doctor Hua Tuo. It is said that when Hua Tuo treated the governor Chen Deng, he used Chinese medicine to induce vomiting, causing Chen Deng to vomit several large basins of red-headed worms."
"Mr. Hua Tuo said that Chen Deng got the disease because he ate fish, but people at that time did not believe it. Later, Mr. Hua Tuo used the term evil filth to dispel everyone's doubts."
Hearing this, Odek nodded frequently, and felt the magic of Chinese medicine more and more, and became more determined to become Ye Xiao's apprentice.
Time came to an hour later
After taking the Chinese medicine decoction prescribed by Ye Xiao, Basong quickly recovered 70% to 80% of his spirit.
He also knew that Ye Xiao and Daweika must have something to talk to him about, so he asked everyone to leave temporarily, leaving only Ye Xiao and Daweika in the room.
Even his daughter Tessa was not left behind. The latter was naturally a little dissatisfied with this, but thinking that Ye Xiao had just saved her father's life, Tessa didn't say much.
"Devika, niece, thank you for inviting a miracle doctor for your uncle." After everyone left, Basong smiled and spoke first.
"Uncle Basong, you don't have to be polite. Our two families have been friends for a hundred years. You are sick, and I brought a doctor to see you, which is what the younger generation should do."
Devika also responded with a smile.
"Hahaha!" Basong laughed loudly, and seemed to appreciate Daweika's words very much.
"Niece Davika, since you said we are friends, if there is anything you need your uncle to do, just tell me."
In fact, Basong knew what Davika wanted to help him with, and it must be the election of the president of Xiangguo Chamber of Commerce.
For Basong, whether he supported Davika or Tini Pei, it would be fine.Therefore, the two families have equal power, and the Basong family will not lose no matter which side they stand on.
"It's like this, Uncle Basong, the Chamber of Commerce election will be held in two days. Because I just took over the Nemo family, the support from the Chamber of Commerce members may not be as good as my father. Please give me some support, Uncle Basong."
Devika said frankly.
Although Basong in front of him looked a little sick, Daiweika knew that he was a politician with deep scheming and extraordinary vision.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to sit firmly in the position of the Prime Minister of Xiangguo for five years, and the royal family and the Xiangguo War Department, which were more powerful than the civil service faction, could not do anything to him.
For such a person, playing tricks will only make him feel bored and insincere.
Basong nodded and continued to say with a smile: "Davika, you are very good. I believe that the Nemo family will definitely get better and better under your leadership. I also hope that our two families can deepen their exchanges."
After hearing Basong's words, Ye Xiao was a little confused. He didn't know whether he agreed or not, but Dawika, who had dealt with many government officials, knew that Basong had agreed to support him.
This is a common problem among government officials. They always like to make their words vague and let you guess.
"Thank you, Uncle Basong." Dawika thanked him.
"Well! Dawika, if you need anything, just contact the housekeeper directly. If there is nothing else, I have to deal with the backlog of documents in the past few days. Let's talk another day!"
Basong tactfully expressed his intention to thank the guest.
However, to Basong's surprise, Dawika did not leave as he expected.
Instead, he said in a neither humble nor arrogant manner: "Uncle Basong, Mr. Ye, I also want to talk to you!"
Hearing this, Basong turned his gaze to Ye Xiao with a little confusion. In fact, before he fainted, he had been listening to the conversation of everyone in the room.
So he knew that Ye Xiao was just a bodyguard beside Daweika, but Basong was a little confused about what this bodyguard needed his help.
With the power of the Nemo family, the trouble of a bodyguard should be completely solved!
Although Basong was puzzled, he still said with a smile: "Mr. Ye, young and promising, his medical attainments are even better than Mei Tianqi and Odek, which really makes me admire him!"
Basong's words obviously have a literal meaning. You, a person with higher medical skills than the first genius doctor in Nanyang, are willing to be Daweika's bodyguard. It seems unreasonable!
Ye Xiao smiled and responded, "Mr. Basong, you are too kind. Ye Xiao has only learned a little bit of Chinese medicine."
He naturally heard Basong's doubts, so he directly revealed his true identity.
Like Daveka, Ye Xiao also thought that it was inappropriate to beat around the bush when talking to Basong. Being straightforward and sincere would win Basong's favor.
After hearing what Ye Xiao said, Basong narrowed his eyes.
Obviously, he had heard of the name Ye Xiao, but he was not sure whether this Ye Xiao was the president of the Wu Ji Association and the general of the Longguo War Department, who was once famous in Longguo.
