"Teacher, I can't go back. I need to find herbs with you," Gu Yue said immediately, but Hai Tang shook her head.

“No, you have to go back. If you hadn’t come to me today, I might not have discovered this problem so soon. By the time it fully erupted, many of the tribe’s young females would have already died. It’s all thanks to you; you’re not at fault. I’m asking you to go back so that we can save those children’s lives. You don’t recognize the herbs here; only I do. Under these circumstances, I have to go with you. The problem is, if I leave, the tribe’s children won’t be able to be taken care of. So you go back and take care of the children. I’ll give you a simple prescription. Go back and get the medicine. If there are any problems, figure out how to deal with them yourself. I’ll come back as soon as possible,” Haitang said to Guyue.

"Mm." Gu Yue nodded, watching Haitang leave and head straight back to the village.

"We'll be away for a few days, won't we be able to handle it?" Huo Ling asked Hai Tang as she walked beside Guo'er.

“Yes, with the problem coming and going, we have even less chance of finding herbs, so we can only choose to go outside,” Haitang said. Hearing this, Huoling looked at Haitang again.

"Then we should ask our cousin for more manpower." Huo Ling said after hearing this. Since that's the case, we should ask for more manpower in case something happens along the way.

“Well, go back and ask your cousin for a few orcs. We’re heading ahead. Guo’er, you don’t really need to come with us. You’re not as strong as me, so you won’t be of much use. Besides, you won’t be able to handle being out here for several days.” Haitang reached out and grabbed Guo’er’s hand. “Moreover… you’re a mother.”

"I have a child?" Guo'er was stunned. She hadn't been using contraception, so she initially wondered if there was something wrong with her, as she hadn't gotten pregnant despite being married to Huo Qiu for so long.

"Yes, I was in too much of a hurry just now and didn't have time to explain it to you clearly," Haitang said, and Guo'er nodded in response.

Huo Ling was also happy that her cousin had a child, so she stayed with Guo'er and went back. Dongfang Long and Haitang went ahead first. Dongfang Long said, "Tangtang, don't be anxious. We will find it."

"Yes, I know... There are bound to be herbs in such a big mountain." We have several kinds of herbs at home, so what we're missing now is some [Bupleurum chinense], [Bamboo shavings], [Mung bean], etc.

Mung beans can also be used to treat diseases, and they are quite effective against the plague. Of course, this is not the only prescription she has. I remember several others, but the problem is that several of them are no longer effective because there are no herbs available.

Huo Qiu nodded upon hearing Huo Ling's words and instructed Huo Ling to select a few young and strong orcs to follow. The orcs, carrying food, immediately transformed into their beast forms and followed Hai Tang's route.

When Huo Ling saw Haitang and Dongfang Long, he immediately asked, "Would you like to come up?" Huo Ling looked at Haitang and Dongfang Long, and Haitang shook her head.

“We need herbs, but if we go deep into the mountains… we’ll miss the herbs by the roadside,” Haitang said. Huoling and the others nodded in agreement.

Qiao Ming also came along, and when he looked at Haitang, he said, "Um... how confident are you?" Qiao Ming also had a female disease and was sent to the hospital.

“If I can find the herbs, I can save him. The problem is that we don’t have the herbs now, so don’t ask me how confident I am,” Haitang said. These were the truth, and Qiao Ming’s face turned pale.

"Don't think too much about it, Qiao Ming. Don't worry, Haitang's medical skills are excellent, and we've all come out to look for herbs, so we'll definitely find them." The snake tribe is doing much better now.

The freshmen told them that many of the snake tribe's cubs had died, which explained why there had been no activity lately. With their own cubs dying, how could one person possibly have time to fight other tribes?

Hearing this, Qiao Ming nodded, and the group began to look for herbs. Haitang was wearing long pants, so she wasn't cut by the herbs. Haitang started looking around.

They knew the growth habits of those herbs, and sometimes they would just pick the leaves from the roadside, wash them, and chew them. When Dongfang Long saw this, he looked at them with a face that said he wanted to do it himself.

When Haitang vomited, she said, "You don't even know what the medicine is like? How can you do it yourself?" Haitang couldn't help but laugh, and Dongfang Long pursed his lips.

He suddenly wanted to learn medicine to help Haitang with her difficulties. Haitang shook her head and began to look for herbs. She would examine the herbs to see their medicinal properties and whether they could replace the herbs she had found.

So much time has passed since then, the herbs may have been extinct. If such a thing were to happen, Haitang would have no choice but to use herbs with the same medicinal effects as substitutes.

While Haitang was searching for herbs, Guyue also started taking care of people, boiling a large pot of herbs to use for bathing the child. Under such circumstances, Huoqiu and the others also inquired about Guyue's situation.

“It was my teacher who told me this. Although there’s no cure, we can at least ease the symptoms. My teacher said that even if we have herbs, we might not be able to find them. It could take several days. In this situation, all we can do is take care of the child and let him endure it. Oh, right… if the eldest can, we could try using something like Ganoderma lucidum to keep him alive. It might be of some use.” Gu Yue suddenly said.

Hearing this, Huo Qiu was slightly taken aback. "Are you sure?" she asked, looking at Gu Yue. "What if we use the wrong method? Did your teacher tell you that this is feasible?"

“I’m not sure, but we can prepare in advance. If the child is really going to die, we can force-feed him… Since he’s going to die anyway, maybe he can survive?” Gu Yue immediately said, and Huo Qiu frowned upon hearing this.
