Chapter 66: Rescue in the Mountains
On the third day after Shen Jiaorou returned, Shen Yi was urgently summoned back by the elders of the clan.
As if knowing what it was about, Shen Yi kept Shen Fu before leaving, and gave Jiang Yuyan a soothing look, "Wait for me to come back..."
Jiang Yuyan listened to him giving her instructions like a husband going on a long journey. Her heart numb for a moment, and she nodded obediently.
Now that autumn is in full swing, patients with typhoid fever are arriving one after another, but Jimintang's business is picking up.
Jiang Yuyan's medical skills have improved a lot, and she can treat some headaches and fevers on behalf of Chen Yi.
However, the clinic has been short of a medicinal ingredient, ephedra, recently, and the two drug dealers in the town are unable to get the supply.
Thinking of what Shen Yi had said about the abundance of natural treasures and herbs near Lingshan, Jiang Yuyan wanted to bypass the Lingshu clan's sphere of influence and collect some from the nearby mountains.
The closer the Lingshan Mountain is to Lingshu Valley, the heavier the miasma is. Some small hills on the periphery are not so bad. But for Jiang Yuyan's safety, Shen Fu still gave her a miasma-avoiding pill. Not only can it avoid poison barriers, but some ordinary poisons can't hurt her.
Shen Fu was indeed born in the mountains. Entering the mountains was like walking on the streets. Jiang Yuyan realized that the young boy who usually kept a low profile was actually a martial artist. He had killed many poisonous snakes and insects for her. She was even more thankful that she brought Shen Fu with her, otherwise she would have given up halfway up the mountain.
The two dug a lot of herbs along the way.
Shen Fu has the mentality of a young man, running and playing at the same time.
"Canglan, look at that flower, it's so beautiful!" Shen Fu suddenly exclaimed.
Jiang Yuyan looked up and saw a large protruding stone slab where he pointed. Below it, in a damp area away from the sunlight, there were large patches of Lycoris radiata, also known as Lycoris radiata.
It was almost dusk, and the dense clusters of flowers were as bright red as a blood mist, very eye-catching!
Looking at the red spider lily that was said to attract the souls of the dead, Jiang Yuyan felt scared.
Just as he was about to call Shen Fu back, the young man had already run away, "Come, I'll pick a few for you......"
“Don’t…” Jiang Yuyan was about to stop him when Shen Fu exclaimed, “There’s a person lying here!!”
Jiang Yuyan's heart was pounding. She looked in the direction of Shen Fu and saw a man in a dark suit lying unconscious in the strange and gorgeous flowers, looking lifeless.
"Are you still alive?" Jiang Yuyan was a little scared.
Shen Fu checked the man's breath and said, "He's still breathing~"
Jiang Yuyan carefully moved closer and took a closer look. The man was injured in the waist and abdomen, and dark blood was seeping through the clothes. The hair on his cheeks was sticky with blood and stuck to half of his face, so his features could not be seen clearly.
Jiang Yuyan and Shen Fu looked at each other. It looked like a vendetta.
“Cang Lan, let’s just ignore it. We in the Lingshu clan don’t care about these grudges in the martial arts world~” Shen Fu, a smart boy, said after thinking for a moment.
Jiang Yuyan was in a dilemma. She was just an ordinary person, not very strong, and really shouldn't get involved in these fights, but as a doctor, she had a kind heart, and it was getting dark...
"He is so unconscious, will he be taken away by a wolf soon?" Jiang Yuyan still had a conscience and asked worriedly.
Shen Fu snorted and stood aside with his arms folded, "What does it have to do with us? If you want to care about it, it's up to you. I'm only responsible for protecting your safety."
Jiang Yuyan made up her mind and lifted up his clothes to check. The man had multiple knife wounds on his waist and abdomen, some of which were still bleeding, and some had stopped bleeding. However, there was a hidden weapon wound on his upper arm, which was black and seemed to be poisonous. This was probably the reason why the man fainted.
Jiang Yuyan took out the golden wound medicine she carried with her and carefully applied the powder on the wounds.
The man looked thin, but his waist and abdomen were very strong, and his eight abdominal muscles were firm but not exaggerated. Jiang Yuyan was concentrating on applying the medicine, but when she touched the warm skin, the man groaned unconsciously, and Jiang Yuyan was startled, and quickly withdrew her hand and rearranged the man's clothes.
The most serious one was the hidden weapon wound on the upper arm. Jiang Yuyan tore off a piece of cloth and carefully wrapped it to pull out the hidden weapon. She then took out some herbs for clearing away heat and detoxification, chewed them up and applied them to the wound, then bandaged it again with cloth. Then she turned to look at Shen Fu and said, "You should have some detoxifying medicine, right?"
Shen Fu watched for a long time, his eyes widened. He had already seen that his master treated Cang Lan differently, but who knew that this woman would touch a strange man. He was immediately unhappy and said, "No! Even if I have it, I can't give it to this unknown person!"
Jiang Yuyan was puzzled. Why was Shen Fu angry?
So he patiently coaxed him, "Ahfu, look, I've saved him for a long time. I'll be a good person to the end and help him get rid of the poison. Then we'll go back. Whether he lives or dies depends on his own luck..."
Shen Fu looked at the darkening sky and hurried down the mountain.
So he pouted and reluctantly threw out a pill, "Here, I can't tell what kind of poison is on that hidden weapon, but this antidote pill of mine can cure 70% of the poisons in the martial arts world, give it a try~"
Jiang Yuyan smiled and praised him, "Good Ah Fu, I know you have a good heart~"
Shen Fu touched his head and turned to the side proudly, "Hmph~"
Jiang Yuyan stuffed the detoxification pill into his mouth, and then held the corner of his mouth and fed him saliva, "I have done my best. Whether you live or die depends on your luck!" After that, she dragged him under the big stone slab and covered him with some hay.
"Let's go, Ah Fu!" Jiang Yuyan put the backpack on her back and hurriedly followed Shen Fu down the mountain.
As soon as the two men left, the man hiding under the large stone slab suddenly opened his eyes, a gleam of light flashed, and the man's expression was inexplicable.
Just now when Jiang Yuyan was treating his injuries, his years of vigilance had brought him back to consciousness, but he couldn't open his eyes.
He could feel a pair of soft and warm hands gently caressing his waist and abdomen. Thinking of it again, the man's face flushed, and he didn't know whether he was angry, anxious or embarrassed.
The man clenched his fists and smashed them hard on the ground. Finally, he ran out of strength and fell asleep again.
When the moon was high in the sky, Jiang Yuyan and Shen Fufang returned to Jimin Hall. Shen Yi had not returned yet, and Jiang Yuyan looked at the dark courtyard with some disappointment.
The herbs she collected needed to be processed overnight, and she joked with Shen Fu while she was working.
After all, Shen Fu was a young man and lively, so time passed quickly as the two of them chatted.
