The smell that suddenly floated into the nostrils was the smell of clear springs unique to spiritual energy. That kind of smell can only be found in spiritual soil and spiritual materials. It's not very strong, but Ning Tao is very sensitive to this smell, and even a faint scent can't escape his keen sense of smell.
He felt strange in his heart and secretly asked: "Is there spiritual soil or spiritual materials in Ruitian's palace?"
While thinking about this problem in his mind, he awakened the sight and smell states of his eyes and nose. The smell of the faint spiritual energy suddenly strengthened, and he followed the source of the smell.
It was a closed door, and traces of spiritual energy were flowing out from the cracks in the door. Ordinary people cannot capture its existence, but to him, there is a high possibility that there is a large amount of spiritual soil or some kind of rare and precious spiritual material hidden behind that door.
"Why don't you leave?" Charlene Talman asked curiously.
Ning Tao pointed to the door: "Where is that place?"
Charlene Talman said: "That is the royal collection room. Do you want to go in and have a look? There is still a little time before the banquet starts. I can take you in to have a look."
"Okay." Ning Tao was eager.
"Come with me." Charlene Talman walked towards the door.
A royal guard pushed open the heavy wooden door for Charlene Talman.
Ning Tao followed Charlene Talman in and was greeted by booths and collection racks. There are rusty armors and weapons, exquisite sculptures, and a dazzling array of porcelain, jewelry and various cultural relics. The collection is dazzling.
Ruitian and Switzerland are both famous permanent neutral countries. They remained neutral during the First and Second World Wars. The country did not experience war, and naturally there are countless cultural relics preserved.
Ning Tao was not interested at all in the dazzling array of antique cultural relics in the collection room. As soon as he entered the collection room, he locked the source of the spiritual energy and walked directly over.
It was an old table, uncarved and unpainted, very crude. There is a weapons rack on the table, and a battle ax is placed on the rack. I don’t know how old the tomahawk is. There is no rust at all, but the blade is chipped in several places.
"What, are you interested in this tomahawk?" Charlene Talman asked curiously.
Ning Tao was actually not interested in the tomahawk on the weapon rack at all. What interested him was only the table supporting the weapon rack and the tomahawk. Although it was simple, it was a treasure in his eyes. In terms of its wood grain, smell and color, it is very consistent with the characteristics of the ice fir spiritual wood recorded in the "Spiritual Materials Compendium". This kind of spiritual material can only grow in the ice and snow, and needs to take root in the spiritual soil. It takes thousands of years of evolution to evolve from ordinary fir trees into ice fir spiritual trees. And this ice fir spiritual wood is one of the seven spiritual materials needed for Tianbao's weaving technique. He already has mature cherry wood, vigorous moss and night flowers. If he can get this table, then he will I have gathered four kinds of spiritual materials, and only three are left to weave cloth and make robes.
The cloth woven by Tianbao's weaving technique can make the robe invulnerable to water, fire, swords and guns, and all kinds of poisons. Wearing it is equivalent to gaining a few more lives. How could he not be tempted and not rush to weave the robe
However, although he was excited in his heart, Ning Tao still said calmly: "This ax is so powerful. It must have some story, right?"
Charlene Talman said: "It's called the Storm Tomahawk, and my ancestors used it to split open the gates of English castles."
"What's the origin of this table?" Ning Tao asked tentatively.
Charlene Talman thought for a moment before saying: "I don't know about this. Maybe it's a remnant of that era. It has been here since I was very young. It is so simple, how could you be interested in it?" ?”
Ning Tao said: "My clinic is missing a suitable table. It is very simple and matches the style of my clinic very well."
Charlene Talman smiled: "Then your clinic must be very old."
"Yes, it is very ancient." Ning Tao said, although he didn't know when Tianwai Clinic was born, it was definitely older than any cultural relics in the world.
"Let's go, it's almost time," said Charlene Talman.
Ning Tao nodded, but muttered in his heart: "Did I say it too tactfully? Didn't she see that I wanted this table?"
Draw a blood lock in the royal collection room and steal the table at night. This is the simplest and most direct way to achieve your goal. Just now when he was looking at the table made of ice fir spiritual wood, Ning Tao had the same idea in his mind. But in the end, this was not done. How could the owner of Tianwai Clinic be a thief? If he wanted that table, he would have a way to make King Ruitian give it to him willingly.
Leaving the royal collection room, a royal guard closed the door again.
Ning Tao glanced back, then followed Charlene Talman through the corridor and arrived at the royal dining room.
King Ruitian and the prince have not arrived yet, but several nobles who were invited to the banquet have arrived early. However, Ning Tao didn’t recognize any of them. Among the nobles in Ruitian, he only knows Harley Boche, but that guy can't walk on the ground yet. After all, he didn't go to a clinic for treatment. Even his superb medical skills can't make him recover after being shot several times in less than 24 hours. After a certain amount of time, I can go to the ground and come to the dinner party alive and kicking.
The eyes of several nobles focused on Ning Tao. Some of them were full of curiosity and novelty, some were slightly questioning or suspicious, and some just looked at him expressionlessly. They had obviously heard about what happened in Florence and saw Charlene Talman's rising breasts at a glance. They were naturally curious and had some suspicions about the doctor from China in front of them.
Charlene Talman introduced several nobles to Ning Tao. After her introduction, Ning Tao realized that these seemingly ordinary nobles all had prominent backgrounds. Some ancestors were lords, some were commanders of the army, and some His ancestors were important ministers of the Ruitian Dynasty. Although these nobles have now lost their territories and rights, as well as the glory of their ancestors, they still serve in the government and the army and are important figures in Ruitian.
Ning Tao chatted with several nobles for a while, and those who knew English communicated in English. Charlene Talman, who did not understand English, acted as a translator.
After a while, with a shout from the guard, King Kagu Talman and Prince Joseph Talman of Ruitian came to the restaurant.
Kagutalman wears traditional clothes. He is tall but too fat, and his walking style is a bit clumsy and laborious.
Jose Talman is a typical Nordic man, with blond hair, blue eyes, a high nose, a tall and burly figure, and a pair of deep and lively blue eyes.
Ning Tao's eyes fell on Kagutalman's lips again. The old king's lips were dark purple, which was a sign of insufficient blood supply to the heart and insufficient oxygen content in the blood. He looked at the old king's eyes again. The old king's eyes were a little swollen and his eyeballs were dry and dull. This was another reason for poor liver function.
Immediately, Ning Tao awakened the second state of his eyes and nose, and in the blink of an eye he became aware of Kagutalman's health problems.
Charlene Talman stepped forward, hugged her father and brother, and then introduced her father and brother: "Father, brother, this is the miracle doctor from China, Ning Tao."
Ning Tao took the initiative to extend his hand and said politely: "Hello, Your Majesty the King, nice to meet you."
Kagutalman hesitated for a moment, but still stretched out his hand to shake Ning Tao's hand gently, with a somewhat reluctant expression on his face.
Then, Kagutalman said: "Dr. Ning, I hope you can let us witness the magic and greatness of China's ancient medical skills. I hope you can cure Professor Yade and create a medical miracle."
Ning Tao said: "I will try my best, but I can't make any guarantees before seeing the patient."
Kagutalman nodded slightly, and then walked past Ning Tao.
Ning Tao was a little embarrassed by Kagu Talman's hesitation just now, but he still extended his hand to Joseph Talman: "Prince Joseph, nice to meet you."
Joseph Talman held Ning Tao's hand, then leaned into Ning Tao's ear and said: "Doctor Ning, you should have curtsied just now. You shook hands with my father. Out of politeness, he did not "I will refuse, but your behavior is inappropriate. Didn't Charlene teach you court etiquette before coming?"
Ning Tao originally just felt a little embarrassed. After all, Kagu Talman was the King of Ruitian, so it was understandable that he behaved a little self-consciously. However, Joseph Talman magnified the matter and pointed out that he had no Etiquette, he felt a little uncomfortable.
Is the king very big
If Kagutarman or a certain king was a bad leader, he, the owner of the Tianwai Clinic, would also be destroyed!
Joseph Talman said again: "Also, I heard about what happened in Florence. I don't know what your purpose is, but I have to remind you that if your target is my sister, I Let me give you a piece of advice, stop that idea as soon as possible, my sister and you will never have that possibility. "
Joseph Talman let go of Ning Tao's hand, took a step back, and then looked directly at Ning Tao's face, as if he wanted to see Ning Tao's reaction.
Ning Tao smiled lightly: "Thank you for reminding me of my own identity and letting me understand how to deal with some things."
Joseph Talman was slightly stunned. He did not expect Ning Tao's reaction to be so calm.
Joseph Talman glanced at Charlene Talman with a warning in his eyes, and then he also walked past Ning Tao.
Charlene Talman approached Ning Tao and asked in a low voice: "What did my brother say to you just now?"
Ning Tao said: "He asked me if I was sure I could cure Professor Yade, and I said yes."
There was no need to tell the truth to Sharlene Talman, because he had no interest in her at all. Joseph Talman thought he was trying to pick up Charlene Talman, so he gave him a stern warning to protect his sister. The motive was understandable, but the behavior was ridiculous, and he had no reason to argue with Joseph Talman.
"So that's it, Professor Yade is coming soon." Sharlene Talman said.
Ning Tao said tentatively: "What kind of professor is he? Even your father and brother are so concerned about his health."
When Charlene Talman was about to say something, Joseph Talman interrupted her: "Charlene, please take a seat, Dr. Ning."
"Dr. Ning, please take a seat." Sharlene Talman said.
Ning Tao followed her and walked over.
It was foreseeable that this would be a boring dinner.
