Beast Taming, my intelligence updates daily.

Chapter 128 A Gift from the Door

Ye Bai glanced at the business card.

The business card simply had the three characters "Jiang Hongzhou" written on it, without even an address or phone number.

Zhang Lingxue seemed to sense Ye Bai's confusion.

"Why don't you look up this old man's address online?"

"When you get in, just tell him that I introduced him."

"He might even test you with some questions, it just depends on how quick-witted you are."

"If you can learn from him, you will benefit greatly."

"By the way, to prevent anyone from harming you, you should seal Big Gray inside the Beast Card."

"If we encounter any danger, we can release Big Gray at any time."

After saying goodbye to Zhang Lingxue, Ye Bai went online to look up information about Jiang Hongzhou.

You wouldn't believe it until you looked it up; Jiang Hongzhou is actually a retired master healer.

Originally the director of the Central Pet Hospital, he retired and hid in the ancient streets of Jiaying City, where he opened a pet hospital called Anbaotang.

He has an eccentric personality and loves to drink honey, especially the higher the quality of the honey.

After Ye Bai investigated Jiang Hongzhou's information, he had the Sunflower King personally brew top-quality honey.

The nectar was contained in a beautifully crafted little jar.

Since it's a home visit for learning, you should bring a small gift.

Ye Bai then learned that Master Jiang liked to eat pufferfish and whales, so he ordered several from the dark web at a high price.

At this time, Sunflower King had replaced Big Gray as the kitchen helper. It wielded two butcher knives and chopped vegetables with incredible skill.

Whether you require horizontal, vertical, or diagonal shapes, Sunflower King can handle it with ease.

Even chrysanthemum tofu was easily made by the Sunflower King.

Ye Bai packed the processed pufferfish whale in a food storage container, carried two jars of honey, and headed towards the old town.

The Sunflower King sat on Ye Bai's shoulder, its roots intertwined like two little feet.

The little charcoal dog followed behind Ye Bai, training its fire control skills as it walked.

The ever-changing silkworm seemed to be still sleeping in, and Ye Bai didn't wake it.

Jiaying's old street is a famous historical site that attracts many tourists. The sounds of vendors calling out their wares can be heard from the surrounding shops, creating a lively and bustling scene.

The houses in the old street are two-story buildings. They don't look very big from the outside, but the interior space is quite large.

Soon, Ye Bai found Anbaotang, where Master Jiang was located.

Anbaotang hadn't even opened yet, but there was already a long line of people outside.

The plaque clearly and squarely displays the three characters "Anbaotang".

At this moment, ten paper figures squeezed out from the crack in the door. Many people put their hands together and muttered, "Please, my pet is sick. Please, Dr. Jiang, pick me!"

"My pet hasn't eaten for days and is about to starve to death. Please, I really need to be selected!"

"Oh, miracle doctor, please save my pet beast!"

Just then, the paper figures began to fall.

Some people received the paper figures and were moved to tears.

Others left disappointed, their eyes filled with resentment, seemingly holding a grudge against Master Jiang.

"Do you know why?"

"Why did some people gain the approval of the paper figures while others did not?"

A voice came from behind.

Without hesitation, Ye Bai said, "Only those who have gained the approval of the paper doll are the true seekers of healing."

"The other group consists of either scalpers queuing up or pets with mild illnesses."

"The main problem is that they are not sincere."

Ye Bai turned around and saw a paper figure floating behind him.

"Zhang Lingxue introduced you, right?"

"What's your name?"

The paper figure asked coldly.

"My name is Ye Bai, and Zhang Lingxue is my master."

The paper figure floated in the air: "Since you are Zhang Lingxue's disciple, come in directly."

"Master Jiang, we want to see you."

Ye Bai followed the paper figure inside, where he saw an old man with white hair and dressed simply.

He was wearing cloth shoes, sitting in a grand chair, slowly sipping fragrant tea.

"Tell me your purpose."

Master Jiang's face remained expressionless, his eyes lowered and fixed on the fragrant tea, as if he had no interest in anything other than the tea.

"I've come to learn how to treat pets from you."

"This is a gift I brought for you."

Ye Bai took out the prepared pufferfish whale food container and two small bottles of honey.

Master Jiang's gaze fell on the door-to-door gift, his eyes darting around, seemingly lost in thought.

After a long silence, Master Jiang asked, "Do you know how to cook pufferfish and whale?"

"Yes, yes, I've made both pufferfish sashimi and pufferfish shabu-shabu."

Ye Bai quickly expressed his opinion.

"Being able to handle pufferfish and whales proves your culinary skills are excellent."

Master Jiang glanced at the white, jade-like pufferfish whale, and knew that Ye Bai had handled it very well.

"I have some special ingredients here, you can decide how to prepare them."

"Tell me what you need."

"You can arrange my lunch."

"Zhang Lingxue should have told you that I have a very strange personality. If you don't satisfy me, then get out of here."

"Even if Zhang Lingxue came in person, it wouldn't make a difference."

"Now, come with me to treat your pet."

Master Jiang slowly stepped forward and walked into the house.

Ye Bai then discovered that Anbaotang was actually a hidden world, a secret realm.

There are many petri dishes here, containing quite a few rare and exotic animals.

However, they were all asleep in the petri dishes, and a group of paper figures were observing the state of the strange beasts.

After they saw Master Jiang walk by, they all greeted him.

"There are many strange beasts here, all of them severely injured and on the verge of death. I've placed them in petri dishes for treatment."

"My energy is limited, so I rely on paper clones to record the status of the alien beasts."

“They have a strong will to live and will cooperate with my treatment.”

At this moment, Master Jiang arrived at a platform where neatly arranged masks were displayed.

"When treating a pet, you must wear a special mask."

"In case your pet has any superbugs, you can defend against them to some extent."

Master Jiang handed a breathing mask to Ye Bai.

Ye Bai nodded and put on the respirator.

Master Jiang led Ye Bai to visit several more places before finally arriving at a reception room.

Ye Bai discovered that the nurses here were all made of paper figures. This made Ye Bai very curious; what kind of pet beast did Master Jiang have contracted that could produce so many paper figures?

Now Ye Bai was thinking, could it be that the Master Jiang in front of him was just a paper clone?

However, upon further reflection, he realized it was unlikely.

"You don't need to worry. These are all paper figures. They are sentient beings and are under my control."

"I don't really trust others to handle things."

"I've hired several people before, and they've caused me a lot of trouble."

"After that, I had the paper figures do the work for me."

"Go and call the first customer in."

A paper figure floated away.

Master Jiang put on a white coat and sat in the medical room.

The paper figure led a girl with waist-length hair over.

The girl wore silver-rimmed glasses and had wavy hair.

He is extremely tall, probably over 1.7 meters.

As she approached, a fragrance of roses wafted over.

Master Jiang never showed any disrespect to his patients; he looked at the girl with a genuine smile.

"You should know my rules, right?"

"If you don't like it, I won't take a penny. If you do like it, I want the items you cherish, except for pets and affections. I want tangible things."

After hearing Master Jiang's words, the girl nodded: "I know Master Jiang's rules."

"Please heal this Flame Wolf for me now."

"I want to know if there's any hope for it."

The girl released the Flame Wolf, whose belly was swollen and whose spirit was very weak. It had its eyes half-closed and seemed to be having some difficulty breathing.

"What did other veterinary hospitals say? Do they have any examination reports?"

Master Jiang had the Flaming Wolf sit on the platform and then turned on the testing equipment.

Infrared rays fell on the Flame Wolf, scanning its entire body repeatedly.

"Other hospitals said it was a malignant tumor and difficult to treat, and told me to prepare to change my main pet as soon as possible so as not to affect myself."

Even after the malignant tumor is removed, the recurrence rate is still as high as 60%.

"I've been to all the major hospitals, and I had no other choice but to come to you."

"Master Jiang, I'm entrusting the Flaming Wolf to you."

The girl endured the pain and said with a look of resentment.

"It is indeed a malignant tumor, and the tumor has spread to other areas."

"It's really difficult to handle."

"The key point is that right next to the malignant tumor, there was actually a newly formed pet egg."

"If we remove this malignant tumor, the pet egg will be lost. What are your thoughts?"

“A few cracks have already appeared on the eggshell. Even if we can salvage it, this pet egg will definitely not hatch.”

Master Jiang said with a solemn expression that for him, the surgery itself was not difficult, but the key challenge was how to prevent the recurrence. Repeated surgeries would be too much for even the pet's body to withstand.

Ye Bai, acting as an assistant, secretly observed the Flame Wolf's every move.

【Name: Flame Wolf】

[Level: Tier 3, Level 7]

[Affected area: A malformed tumor has formed in the abdomen, and the cancer cells have spread throughout the body, requiring immediate removal.]

Ye Bai was stunned when he saw the information about the Flaming Wolf. Was this a new feature of the Eye of Insight?

At this moment, Master Jiang suddenly spoke up and asked Ye Bai, "Kid, if you were the attending physician, how would you handle this?"

A hint of joy appeared on Ye Bai's face. Finally, they asked. If he answered well, he would definitely be able to stay.

He organized his thoughts by recalling the numerous books he had read: "Teacher Jiang, if it were me, I would first perform surgery to remove the diseased part and separate the pet egg from its mother."

"Put the pet egg in the nectar of the sunflower to nurture it, to prevent the crack in the pet egg from continuing to break."

"Then I will increase the amount of nutrients supplied to the pet, firstly to accelerate the healing of the pet's wounds."

"Secondly, it can also stimulate the sites of tumor metastasis, causing signs to appear earlier. We continue to clean them up in this way until the tumors are completely gone."

"If we keep the pet's body in optimal condition, we can perform multiple surgeries, although it will be a bit more troublesome."

Ye Bai shared his thoughts, but Master Jiang neither agreed nor disagreed. Instead, he said, "Since you have already provided a solution..."

"Then we'll proceed with the surgery on this pet according to your plan."

"If you can't even perform surgery, then you should leave as soon as possible."

"Little girl, don't worry, even if he makes a mistake, I can handle it."

"After all, could there be a worse outcome than this?"

Master Jiang asked the girl.

The girl shook her head: "Master Jiang, I am already very grateful that you can help me."

"I just don't know if he has a medical license. If he's allowed to handle this, he might end up in jail."

"It wouldn't be good if people talked about this."

Master Jiang nodded: "He has a license to practice medicine in pets. He just passed the exam not long ago, so you don't need to worry about your concerns."

"But there's one thing I need to tell you: during the surgery, no matter what happens, you must not make a fuss."

"This is the least you can do to show respect to the surgeon."

"If you can't do it, then we won't take your order."

"This is a waiver of liability. Sign it."

Master Jiang handed the girl a piece of paper, and the girl wrote the three characters "Jiang Lingling" on the paper in a flamboyant style.

"Alright, let's begin the surgery. I'll take responsibility for anything that goes wrong."

Master Jiang said something to Ye Bai.

Ye Bai put on a sterile suit and asked Sunflower King for assistance.

The Sunflower King emitted a rich floral fragrance, which quickly knocked the Flame Wolf unconscious.

Ye Bai used a sharp scalpel to make a long, narrow incision on the Flame Wolf's body.

Then Ye Bai used tweezers to open the wound.

There is a pet egg in the middle of its abdomen, but the shell is almost losing its luster.

The pet egg was surrounded by menacing blood vessels, which looked creepy.

These are all malignant tissues that have split off from cancer cells.

Ye Bai used a scalpel to remove the malignant tissue, and then used cotton to absorb the gushing blood.

Before long, Ye Bai had completely removed the cancer cells and stitched up the wound.

As for the pet egg with a crack, Ye Bai soaked it in the finest sunflower nectar.

The earliest piece of information Ye Bai received was that sunflower nectar could restore cracked pet eggs to their original state.

After doing all this, Ye Bai was drenched in sweat, panting heavily, and looked extremely exhausted.

"You're exhausted from just one surgery? This won't do."

"When you get back, you should work out your body properly, or contract a fighting-type pet and see if you can randomly get its Strength skill to improve your health."

Master Jiang said with a look of disgust.
