Lin Qinghe has been practicing medicine for many years, and the things in his medicine basket have never been light. When he comes across a remote mountain village, he can wear out two pairs of cloth shoes just by traveling.
He looked at the little donkey blinking its big wet eyes, and suddenly remembered the old horse his master gave him thirty years ago. It was also very human-like and carried him out of a desperate situation on a snowy night.
"That's all."
Lin Qinghe finally gave in and took the donkey whip handed to him by Zhao Wei.

Yunxiu walked up to him and gently tugged at his sleeve: "Don't worry, he will come back."
Zhao Wei looked at the dark green mountains in the distance and let out a long breath.
