Chapter 57 The Key to the Problem

The Ning Family Medicine Shop was not small, and used to be a single storefront that had a fairly large courtyard behind it. Under a locust tree, there was an old well, giving the entire yard a sense of tranquil quietude.

Flanking the courtyard were two bungalows to the east and west, constructed with green bricks and azure roof tiles, which were quite elaborate. Ding Fan now understood why Ning Luomei coveted this property.

Its favorable location and serene environment made this house something money might not be able to buy.

Ning Luoxi led Ding Fan to the eastern wing room. Upon entering, Ding Fan saw an elderly man lying on the sickbed, his complexion extremely pale and gaunt.

The elder was unconscious at the time. Ding Fan swept over him with his Divine Sense and saw that the elder's condition was indeed perilous. Ding Fan inwardly breathed a sigh of relief, noting how lucky it was that he hadn't arrived half a day later, or the elder's life would have been beyond saving.
