Soon? After hearing the news, Sun Zhengrong was happy, but he did not know why. It was perhaps due to his experience on his trip to the Southern Territory or the indifferent attitude of the uncle and nephew.

He did not have the slightest interest in the people in that stockaded village.

“But, he looks very healthy,” Sun Zhengrong said.

Wang Yao did not answer. In fact, the uncle and his nephew did not look very healthy. Their dark face was because of the suntan. On the other hand, they were poisoned, which could be seen via their appearance. They spent all day and night with the insects. It was inevitable that they would be affected by them. The toxins had been accumulated over time.

This was the case for Zhang Qingshan. Zhang Yuantong was probably not much better.

“Do people in that village have a short life span?” Wang Yao asked such a question.

“I really don’t know,” Sun Zhengrong said. His brow frowned slightly, like he had thought of something.

“You should pay attention to it,” Wang Yao said. “If they tell what they saw on Nanshan to the people in their stockaded village, it could bring you some trouble.”

He did not understand why Wang Yao had not stopped the two people from approaching earlier. He clearly had the ability.

“No matter,” Wang Yao said. He had already thought about the countermeasures for the matter.

After staying in the mountain village for one more day, Sun Zhengrong left after he explained some things to Sun Yunsheng.

It was nighttime when Wang Yao arrived at the mountain. The injured dog and the goshawk had recovered.

Wang Yao returned to the hut. The lights were dim. He took out a packet of seeds he had just redeemed from the system.

Xian Qiuluo. This was a licorice root in the record, and it was also a kind of poisonous grass. Its leaves could benefit Qi, blood, and vital essence. Its roots could replenish Yang and drive away cold poison. It was beneficial.

Its flower was also harmful. The smell it emitted after flowering had a strange and severe poison. It left one feeling powerless and suffering from fever and hallucination. It could even shock one to death.

This was also why Wang Yao chose it. Planting them was equivalent to adding an invisible guard. As for the toxins it produced, it could be detoxified and immunized by taking the soup of its roots.

The next morning, Wang Yao selected a few suitable points and planted the seeds. He then watered them with the ancient spring water.

Pharmacists had means to save people. They also ways to hurt people. Wang Yao used the unique way of pharmacists. Cautiousness could not be given up to defend against people.

In the morning, Zhou Wuyi came to the clinic.

“Congratulations, you have completely recovered!” Wang Yao exclaimed.

“Really?” Zhou Wuyi was surprised.

His recovery speed had exceeded Wang Yao’s imagination. He had judged that he still had to wait at least half a month to recover. He had recovered 10d says earlier. Wang Yao thought it had a great relationship with the change of his mind. Additionally, the neixi that had changed its nature inside his body has also played an important role.

The old man sighed happily. “I’m so happy today, Dr. Wang, are you free at noon? I’ll invite you to drink!”

“That is good,” Wang Yao replied. He told his family he would be home to eat at noon.

Lunch was still in the village’s hotel, but the wine was brought by the old man, which was the secret medicinal liquor in their village. It was very mellow and had various magical effects. It could relax the muscles and promote blood circulation.

“Dr. Wang, how is it?” Because his injury had been restored, the old man was very happy. He drank a lot with Wang Yao.

“It’s good.” Wang Yao smiled. In fact, he didn’t understand wine, but he knew medicine. He tasted the ingredients of Chinese herbal medicines from the wine. They did have a certain supplement effect.

“Then, drink a few more cups,” the old man said.

Wang Yao did not like drinking. He preferred to drink tea. More tea could be drunk. Wine needed to be drunk appropriately. Medicinal wine was also a kind of wine.

The old man was happy, so he did not say it. Sometimes, life needed some indulgence. Occasionally, one needed to enjoy the scenery, drink, and indulge in singing. Of course, indulgence had bottom line.

Finally, the old man was drunk. Fortunately, Zhou Xiong did not drink much because he had important things to do the next day. He was to wed Sha Zhihua.

“Dr. Wang, thank you very much,” Zhou Xiong said.

“You’re welcome,” Wang Yao replied.

“Come to my wedding tomorrow,” Zhou Xiong said.

“Definitely,” Wang Yao replied.

In the afternoon, Wang Mingbao came back and was full of happiness.

“What kind of good news do you have? Come on and tell me?” Wang Yao asked.

“My relationship with Teacher Han is certain,” Wang Mingbao excitedly said.

“Certain?” Wang Yao asked.

“Yes, I have seen her parents. They are quite satisfied with me,” Wang Mingbao said.

“And, it is certain?” Wang Yao asked.

“She is going to come here next week. I will bring her to see my parents,” Wang Mingbao replied.

As long as the parents of both parties agreed and the two people had mutual sincerity to each other, then it would successful.

“Congratulations,” Wang Yao said.

“What about your Tong Wei?” Wang Mingbao asked

Wang Yao was silent for a while. “Still in progress.”

He said nothing about him and Tong Wei to anybody.

“In progress. When will it be settled? We could hold weddings together,” Wang Mingbao said happily, not detecting there was something wrong with Wang Yao’s mood.

“We can talk about that later,” Wang Yao said.

“Are you free tonight? What about having meal together?” Wang Mingbao asked.

“Okay!” He was really happy, so Wang Yao could not refuse it.

In the afternoon, three people came to the clinic. They were from neighboring villages. They came to see Wang Yao for treatment. One was just a small problem; the man’s leg hurt badly. Wang Yao treated him with acupuncture and gave him two potions of drugs and suggestions.

The other was more serious because it is a child around 4 years old. The child suffered from a cold, fever, sickness, lack of energy, shortness of breath, bad breath, and a hoarse voice.

“He has a cold. Plus, heat and moisture in his body. His lungs are damaged,” Wang Yao said. This was typical pneumonia caused by incompletely cured cold. “How long has it been going on?”

“One week,” the woman said.

“A week? Did you go to the hospital?” Wang Yao asked.

“Yes, we went to the health clinic in the town and took the medicine,” the woman said. “The effect was not very good after taking the medicine.”

The child coughed again seriously they were talking. Wang Yao patted his chest gently. He stopped coughing. His face was much better instantly.

“Great!” The couple sighed.

“You should have come earlier,” Wang Yao said. The disease was not a problem for Wang Yao, but the child had to bear more pain. “Come on, let me straighten out your breath first.”

Wang Yao helped the child smooth out his qi and blood along his back. He also relieved the snoring caused by damp heat.

The child felt much better after the massage.

“Do you feel better now?” Wang Yao asked.

“Much better, uncle,” the child said.

“Ah. That’s good,” Wang Yao said.

Wang Yao gave him several medicines, mainly for clearing away heat and removing phlegm. “Take the medicine regularly according to the instructions on the prescription. If there is any problem, take him to see a doctor in time.”

The couple left after expressing their appreciation.

“Well, that child would be in a very dangerous situation in the next two days if he had not come today,” Wang Yao said to Wang Mingbao.

“Many people are like that,” Wang Mingbao said. “They don’t want to go to the hospital to see a doctor until they can’t support themselves. And, they don’t have the habit of regular inspections.”

“This is a problem of concept. It is gradually changing,” Wang Yao said.

…

In People’s Hospital in Wei.

Sun Dacheng and his wife were shocked.

“Doctor, could you check him again? Is there anything going wrong?” Sun Dacheng asked.

“No, it is not,” the doctor said.

“How is it possible? How could our son get this disease?” Sun Dacheng anxiously asked.

Drug addiction, chronic kidney failure, and now venereal disease. Both the husband and wife were almost going to collapse. All three of these diseases were very difficult to treat.

The husband and wife looked at their sick son. Sun Dacheng was angry. He really wanted to kill his son.

“Tell me what has been going on these days!?” He groaned, grinding his teeth.

“Dad, I didn’t do anything!” the son exclaimed.

“You still tell a lie? How can you get the disease without doing anything?” Sun Dacheng angrily asked.

Sun Honglin was stunned. “That disease, that damn western horse!”

“You are taking drugs again!” Sun Dacheng shouted.

“No, Dad, I really don’t,” his son pitifully said.

“Why are you yelling at your son?” the woman asked.
