Yuanjing agreed when the demon—oh, no, the system—offered him the opportunity.

Chapter 007

"uncle."

"It's Qingshan." Niu Guozhu recognized Jiang Qingshan's voice, and squinted his eyes to see that the person walking with his nephew was the educated youth Ji Yuanjing.

"Uncle, I heard from Taohua that you went to pick someone up? Did you bring the person back?" Jiang Qingshan asked. He could see that Niu Guozhu looked tired, as he had been through a lot today.

Niu Guozhu nodded: "We picked them up and sent them to the cowshed." He lowered his voice and said, "We picked up two people. One was an old doctor and the other was a university teacher. They were both capable people. How come..."

He glanced at Ji Yuanjing and stopped talking halfway. Trouble comes from the mouth, especially in this day and age.

At his age, Niu Guozhu just wants to live a good life in this village and reduce the troubles in the team. Therefore, he will not go out of his way to bother the five black categories of elements sent here for reform. If he sees that they can't make a living, he will go easy on them and take better care of them in private.

Jiang Qingshan resisted the urge to go see Ji Yuanjing. If there really was an old doctor, he could find a chance to try him out. Seeing Niu Guozhu's tired face, he said, "Uncle, you've been tired all day. Go back and have a rest."

"Hey, the movie is over, you guys should go back early too."

People from the cultural center took turns showing open-air movies in several production teams. The young people in the team wandered around the teams like they were on a train. In the end, watching the movies became secondary and joining in the fun became the main thing. There were originally very few entertainment activities in the countryside throughout the year.

Chen Jianhua rushed twice and wanted to take Yuan Jing with him, but Yuan Jing waved his hand and said forget it. Later, Chen Jianhua thought it through and gave a reason: "I was afraid that I didn't take good care of you, Yuan Jing, and let you be raped."

As soon as he finished speaking, he burst into laughter and wanted to run away, but Yuan Jing was much faster than him. Just as he was about to escape, he was caught and beaten up by Yuan Jing. He was getting bolder and bolder, daring to make fun of him.

Chen Jianhua had no choice but to beg for mercy and said a lot of nice things before Yuan Jing let go, and then he quickly ran away.

Yuan Jing turned around to go back to his room, only to find that Jiang Qingshan was staring at his face seriously, then he strode back to his room without saying a word.

Although he didn't say a word, couldn't Yuan Jing see that his expression was in agreement with Chen Jianhua's words? Yuan Jing wanted to reach out and call Jiang Qingshan, "Brother Jiang, how could you, a good young man, learn Chen Jianhua's character and actually make fun of him?"

Yuan Jing didn't notice that Jiang Qingshan, who had his back to him, had a little red at the base of his ears. Jiang Qingshan felt that although Chen Jianhua usually spoke without thinking, this time his words were right. For Yuan Jing to go out at night to watch an open-air movie like this, he was really worried that he would be raped by the girl who had set his eyes on him.

It's too dangerous, better to stay at home.

When the open-air movie week was over, Chen Jianhua, who was in charge of finding out, also brought back a lot of news, such as which boy and which girl got engaged. It was said that they fell in love with each other after watching two movies together.

There was also an educated youth from the Xiangyang Production Team next door who was so struck by Wang Ling's beauty when he first saw her that he chased her all the way to their team.

Also, the relationship between the two educated youths in the Youth Institute has been progressing rapidly in the past few days. Maybe I'll be able to drink at their wedding soon. It is said that the rapid development of their relationship is due to a heroic act of saving a damsel in distress.

Yuan Jingdang listened to the story as if he was listening to it. Compared with the other educated youth with whom he was distantly related, he was more concerned about whether Jiang Qingshan's leg could be saved. Moreover, he also wanted to find an opportunity to learn Chinese medicine. This was his first life in the past, and he didn't know how many lives he would have to go through to accumulate enough points. Learning more, especially medical skills, would definitely help with future tasks.

However, the educated youth from Xiangyang Production Team mentioned by Chen Jianhua made Yuan Jing pay more attention, because in his memory, this educated youth named Du Weiguo was the most hostile to the original body, because he made the original body suffer several times but he had no way to fight back.

Although in this life Yuan Jing stayed away from the Youth League Institute and prevented him from falling into the same situation as his original self, it was difficult for Du Weiguo to guarantee this because in his memory this man was like a madman.

Yuan Jing felt that it would be better for this man and Wang Ling to torture each other internally. He hoped that Du Weiguo would get his wish and marry the beauty. Without Wang Ling, the atmosphere in their team's Youth League Institute would definitely be much better.

He actually didn't quite understand. Ma Lili's appearance was no worse than Wang Ling's. She was bright and generous. She also had a cheerful personality and could endure hardships. But she was not as popular as Wang Ling among the male educated youth. Even Yuan Jing knew that the two of them were trying to show off their talents.

Just when Yuan Jing was thinking about how Jiang Qingshan should contact the old doctor, an opportunity came to them. When the two of them went into the mountains together again that day, they suddenly heard a cry of "ouch" from the front. The two looked at each other and immediately rushed over following the sound.

Jiang Qingshan was born a soldier, so he would never stand by and watch someone die. No matter who was in trouble, he would lend a hand.

Yuan Jing also had a very good impression of the soldiers. Even in such a terrible environment at the end of the world, there were still many soldiers guarding the front line, leaving the chance of survival to others.

Because Yuan Jing awakened the power of poison, he was rejected by many people at first. They believed that only people with evil minds would awaken such power. If they stayed with him, who knew they would be killed silently by Yuan Jing.

Yuan Jing was ostracized by others, but when he was in danger, it was the soldiers who saved him. Yuan Jing always kept this kindness in his heart, which is one of the reasons why he likes Jiang Qingshan.

The two quickly found the scene of the accident. An old man with gray hair and wearing patched clothes fell to the ground, with dug herbs scattered beside him. He stared at the thing in front of him. It was a snake, a poisonous snake. No wonder there was no sound after it shouted once. It was because he was afraid of disturbing the snake.

However, the voices of Jiang Qingshan and the others made the snake react. When the old man saw them, he was grateful and worried. He was grateful because he was sure that the two young men came over because they heard his voice, but he was also worried that their appearance would make the venomous snake jump up. If he were not old and had suffered a lot, this mere snake would not be able to do anything to him, but would instead take his gallbladder.

Jiang Qingshan saw the snake at a glance. Without stopping for a moment, he continued walking towards the old man. At the same time, he grabbed the hatchet in the basket behind him and threw it at the poisonous snake with a very neat and decisive movement.

With a "puff" sound, the snake's head and body separated. The snake's head and body were still twisting. When the old man saw this, he immediately relaxed all over, took a long breath, wiped the cold sweat oozing from his forehead with his sleeve, and then immediately reached out to grab the snake on the ground to take out the snake's gall, which was a valuable treasure.

Jiang Qingshan came over, picked up the hatchet stuck in the ground and threw it into the basket behind him, then looked at the old man: "Old man, are you okay?"

"It's okay, it's okay, thanks to you for arriving in time. The young man has a good aim. This snake gall is a good thing. Take it back and soak it in wine, and the snake meat can also be taken back and stewed." Although the old man was very greedy for meat, he didn't want it at all. Without these two young men, he might have been bitten and suffered in the days to come.

Jiang Qingshan accepted the snake gall without hesitation. Snake gall wine is good for his uncle. Rural people also know about this stuff. However, he did not want the snake meat. He said, "Old man, we came to the mountains to hunt. We don't lack this little meat. Why don't you take it back? It's at least some meat. Old man, you can still walk, right? Why don't we take you down the mountain?"

"No, thanks." The old man accepted the snake meat, but was unwilling to let them take him down the mountain, for fear of being seen by the villagers, which would be bad for the two young men. He tried to get up, but found that his legs were still a little weak due to the fright, and it was a little difficult to walk down the mountain from here.

Jiang Qingshan took a look and turned around to take down the basket: "Yuan Jing, hold it for me. I'll take the old man for a ride."

"Okay, Jiang, be careful."

"It's okay." Jiang Qingshan was very strong, so the old man had no chance to object. He easily carried the old man on his back and strode down the mountain.

Yuan Jing helped pick up the herbs on the ground and put them into the basket next to him, and also carried the snake, and walked down the mountain with Jiang Qingshan.

"Thank you, young people, thank you so much this time." The old man said gratefully. Although the world is bad, there are kind people everywhere. When he came to the Red Star Production Team, he knew that he had come to the right place. As long as he could hold on, he would be able to survive here.

"It's okay," Yuan Jing said from the side, "Everyone has troubles sometimes."

As they walked and talked, Yuan Jing learned that the old man's name was Zhang Heliu. Another old man in the cowshed fell ill, so he came to the mountain to pick some herbs and brought them back to boil and give them to the old man. Zhang Heliu also learned the names of Jiang Qingshan and Yuan Jing.

Although Jiang Qingshan is a man of few words, he knows from what happened just now that the young man is cold on the outside but warm on the inside. Yuan Jing is an educated youth, and he can tell without Yuan Jing introducing him that he does not look like a country boy.

"Young man, what's wrong with your legs?" Lying on Jiang Qingshan's body, Zhang Heliu clearly felt that something was wrong with the way Jiang Qingshan walked, so he asked.

Yuan Jing explained for Jiang Qingshan: "Brother Jiang is a retired soldier from the army. His leg was injured and he has been like this since he recovered."

"So you're a soldier, not bad, the young man has a good physique, but it's a pity about his legs." Zhang Heliu's old illness came back, and Jiang Qingshan saved him from a poisonous snake, so he wanted to take a look for Jiang Qingshan. It would be a pity if he didn't treat him if he had a chance. The longer he delayed, the harder it would be to treat.

"Xiao Jiang, if you want to believe what I say, come to our cowshed quietly at night. I'll check your leg to see if it can be saved."

Yuan Jing looked at Jiang Qingshan with a smile, and Jiang Qingshan said very straightforwardly: "I believe it. I will go over tonight and ask Mr. Zhang to help me. No matter what the situation is, I, Jiang Qingshan, thank Mr. Zhang."

"Haha, then it's settled. Old man, I'll be waiting for you tonight. Hey, here we are. Put me down quickly. Don't go on. Just keep hunting if you want."

Seeing that they were almost at the foot of the mountain, Zhang Heliu hurriedly patted Jiang Qingshan on the shoulder and asked him to put him down.

Jiang Qingshan didn't force it anymore. Some things would lose their effect if done too much. Of course, if it was any other old man today, he would have carried the person down the mountain as well.

Jiang Qingshan and Yuan Jing watched Zhang Heliu return to the village before turning around and continuing into the mountains, but this time they were a little more absent-minded. Yuan Jing knew that he was looking forward to the results in the evening, but was afraid that Zhang Heliu would announce that his leg was incurable.

Seeing his condition, Yuan Jing hunted two wild rabbits and dragged him down the mountain. The game they hunted was enough for them to eat for the next few days, so there was no need to send it to the town.

"Yuan Jing, I'm sorry."

"Brother Jiang, it's nothing. I'll go with you in the evening. Actually, I've always been interested in Chinese medicine, but unfortunately I don't have the opportunity to learn it. In the evening, I would like to ask Mr. Zhang to recommend me some introductory books." Yuan Jing said with a smile.

"Okay, let's go together tonight. Don't tell my mom when we get back."

"Well, don't worry, I won't tell you."
