Lu Wan shook his head and said, "I am not from this area. The Psychedelic Forest is a dangerous place, and generally no one would open a clinic here. I do know a little bit about medicine, so if you don't mind, I can help you with your treatment."
The group of merchants were definitely not convinced when they saw such a young girl claiming to know medical skills. They were just about to give up when the injured old man slowly said, "I don't mind. This is the first time in my life that I have seen such a young doctor. If you don't treat this wound for me, I'm afraid I won't be able to get out of this psychedelic forest. Don't feel pressured. If an old man dies, it's none of your business. Just blame it on my fate." qqxδnew
"It's rare to find an old man as free and easy as you nowadays. Since you trust me so much, I don't think I will let you down." After saying that, he took the medicine box from his shoulder and opened it. He first checked the old man's wound, and then took out a series of things to clean the wound, such as cotton, alcohol, pliers, etc. This was caused by some poisonous weeds. Because it was delayed for too long and not treated, the wound festered and he had a fever. He was not very aware of the poisoning. It was estimated that the old man was in good health, otherwise he would not be able to speak after being injured like this. It took a whole hour to prepare the antidote and treat it. Lu Wan was so tired that he fell asleep leaning against a tree.
When he woke up, it was already the next morning. The old man no longer had a fever, but his face was still a little pale. He still needed to take some tonic medicine to regulate his body, but he was fine. The merchants were very grateful to Lu Wan. When they learned that she came to the psychedelic forest alone, they expressed their willingness to let her join the caravan. After all, it was not safe for a girl to go out alone, and it would be more lively with more people. They also promised to give her a commission to thank her for curing the old man. Lu Wan naturally agreed. Why not kill two birds with one stone?
The group had been walking in the psychedelic forest for three days, eating dry food along the way. Whenever they saw pheasants or wild grass, they would get some to change their taste. With Lu Wan's joining, they were able to successfully avoid poisonous weeds and insects. This group of profit-seeking businessmen also admired this brave little girl very much.
That morning, the sky was cloudless and the sun shone warmly on everyone. The clear chirping of birds made people inexplicably happy. Everyone was walking and talking on the road, but Lu Wan always felt that there was a crisis hidden under the calm, as if a storm was about to come. However, perhaps because the journey in the past few days, although easy, still consumed a lot of her energy and made her a little tired, she did not care about this strange feeling.
Suddenly, dense bamboo swords fell from the sky. The mercenaries didn't care about their employers and fled in a hurry. The merchants quickly hid under the boxes of goods. People outside could only hear the birds in the forest flapping their wings and chirping and flying out of the forest, but they didn't know what happened in the forest. In fact, as early as when the merchants entered the psychedelic forest, the bandits had already set their sights on their goods. Lu Wan's joining in aggravated their desire to rob them of money and sex. After all, there were usually no women in such a dangerous place as the psychedelic forest. If there were any, they would be fierce female demons. The bandits were not good at martial arts, and they relied on numbers. They couldn't beat them and didn't dare to provoke these women. They had already been "extremely **". It was not easy to meet a beautiful woman, so naturally they couldn't let her go.
The mercenaries fled or were injured, leaving only a group of powerless merchants. The bandits then rushed to the caravan and shouted, "I own this mountain and planted these trees. If you want to pass through here, you have to leave some money to buy your way through!" When Lu Wan heard such a cliché, he laughed and said, "I didn't expect the bandits here to be so cute." The person who was shouting was unhappy and yelled at Lu Wan, "I'm the third in command of this village. Stop talking nonsense. Kill the men and take the money back. As for this woman... let her be the wife of our creditor in the village later. Charge!" Lu Wan snorted coldly, "A bunch of small bandits dare to say such arrogant words and want to take this girl to be their wife. It depends on whether you have the ability to do it!"
After that, the two sides started fighting. Lu Wan didn't have a suitable weapon, so she picked up a branch. She was a killer in her previous life and had seen this kind of scene many times, as if it were commonplace. She knocked down the people who rushed up swiftly, but there were too many of them. One group after another rushed up after they fell. No one could withstand such a round-the-clock battle, not to mention that Lu Wan's body was weak to begin with, and she was already physically exhausted from the journey in the past few days. Now it was even worse. She was outnumbered and subdued by them. Seeing that everyone else fell, the bandits were ready to stop. The shouting man carried Lu Wan on his shoulder, called on his younger brother to pull the carts of goods back to the village, and then hummed a little song and went back to the village to ask the village chief for a reward. He thought: I brought back such a top beauty, I wonder what reward the village chief will give me? It would be great if I could be the third in command, so that I wouldn't have to endure the bullying of Chen Biao, that simple-minded, muscular man, all day long.

As she was thinking, she had already walked to the gate of the village. She ran excitedly to the door of the village chief's room. Then she thought, something is wrong. She had just finished a fight. Not only were her clothes dirty, but her face looked very bad. If she presented herself to the village chief now, she didn't know if he would say that she was not gentle with women. If she accidentally lost her position as the leader, how could she hold her head up in this village in the future?
As soon as she realized something was wrong, she immediately carried Lu Wan to the guest room, called in a doctor from the village to treat her wounds, and specially asked someone to rush to the town to buy her a set of suitable clothes and some rouge and powder.
When Lu Wan woke up, it was already dinner time. The lights outside were bright and bustling. The bandits had robbed a lot of gold, silver and jewelry today, and were going to have a cocktail party to celebrate. They killed chickens and sheep to make Feng Lu's dinner, and opened dozens of jars of daughter's red wine, agreeing not to return until they were drunk. By the way, they also wanted to celebrate the fact that the village chief had married a wife today.
