After Qin Wan got up, she cooked some millet and pumpkin porridge, cut some pickles, took out two buns from the space, had a comfortable breakfast, and then went to the brigade headquarters.
When he arrived at the place, Qin Wan found that there were more than ten talented people there, most of them talking in groups of three or five.
She didn't see anyone familiar, so she stood aside and looked around casually.
At this time, the old village chief was talking to the team leader. His voice seemed to be the same as usual, low and hoarse, but Qin Wan could hear that he was a little short of breath. He frowned and looked at the old village chief.
The old village chief frowned slightly, his face looked slightly pale, and his hands were pressed tightly against his abdomen. Qin Wan knew that the old village chief must be ill.
Ever since receiving the inheritance from the cave, Qin Wan found that her eyesight and mind became clear, as if the whole world became clear in her eyes.
When she looked closely at someone, she would unconsciously catch some details that ordinary people would not notice, and those details often hid unknown secrets. At this moment, she was silently examining the old village chief with her perceptive eyes.
She saw beads of sweat oozing from the old village chief's forehead. Although he tried his best to hide it, it was still obvious that he was feeling unwell.
Qin Wan couldn't help but feel worried. She thought to herself:
"The old village chief has always been the pillar of the village, but now he's sick. I wonder if this will affect village affairs?"
At the same time, she was also surprised by her own changes. She would not notice these details before. Now, she seemed to have a special ability to see deeper things through the surface phenomena.
Qin Wan could feel that the old village chief's illness was not an ordinary disease. It was a hidden disease hidden deep in his body, like a latent undercurrent that was quietly eroding his vitality.
This disease is undoubtedly an insurmountable problem for ordinary rural doctors.
But for Qin Wan, it was a piece of cake, because she not only possessed the fifth-level wood-related ability, but she also possessed the mysterious inheritance from the cave. The inheritance contained endless wisdom and power, as well as treatments for various diseases.
Qin Wan decided to treat the old village chief. This decision was not made on impulse, but after careful consideration.
Although the old village chief has handed over most of the work to the team leader, he is still the soul of the village. Back then, it was he who led the villagers through countless ups and downs. It was he who used his calloused hands to personally build this poor, backward and desolate village into what it is today.
Now is a time of political turmoil. If the old village chief falls, the village will lose its backbone. Some radical elements in the village may break the current relative stability of the village and plunge the entire village into madness and turmoil, which will make the lives of the villagers more difficult.
Thinking of this, Qin Wan took a deep breath, plucked up his courage, and walked towards the old village chief.
Her steps were steady and firm, as if carrying some kind of determination. As she approached, Qin Wan smiled and greeted the old village chief: "Captain, Uncle Village Chief."
When the old village chief saw Qin Wan coming over, he smiled amiably and asked, "Qin Zhiqing, is there anything I can help you with?" His tone was kind and caring.
Qin Wan looked at the old village chief with sincerity and determination in her eyes, and said, "Uncle village chief, I have something to say to you." Her voice was not loud, but it was full of strength and determination, which moved people.
The old village chief was slightly stunned, then nodded, indicating that he was willing to listen to Qin Wan's words. He gestured for Qin Wan to continue, his eyes revealing curiosity and anticipation.
Qin Wan took a deep breath, stared at the old village chief, and asked seriously: "Uncle Village Chief, have you often felt back pain or shoulder pain recently?" Her voice was calm and concerned, revealing a sense of professionalism and confidence.
The old village chief couldn't help but laugh when he heard Qin Wan's question. He said with emotion, "Girl, you have a very good eye! Indeed, I've had frequent back and shoulder pains in the past year or two. It might be because I exerted too much effort when I was young. Now that I'm old, all kinds of illnesses have come to me."
There was a hint of helplessness and bitterness in his smile, as if he had become accustomed to his physical condition.
Qin Wan didn't comment and asked again: "Touch your stomach carefully, can you feel any lumps?"
"Yes, girl, is there something wrong with me?"
Qin Wan did not answer the old village chief, but said to the team leader:
"Captain, take a look at the village chief's eyes. Are they yellow? Is his skin also yellower than that of ordinary people?"
Captain Shi Yongfeng took a look and said:
"That's true. If Qin Zhiqing hadn't mentioned it, I really wouldn't have noticed it."
Qin Wan continued, "The village chief should still often feel weak, have a poor appetite, and even experience nausea and vomiting, right?"
"Yes, the educated youth Qin is really amazing. Tell me, uncle, what's wrong with this body?" At this time, the old village chief had already understood what Qin Wan meant.
He'd been aware of his health problems for a year, but he'd ignored them. Isn't that what everyone does? Minor ailments, endured as long as possible, and when they became unbearable, he'd just go to the doctor and get some painkillers.
"Uncle Village Chief, you might have a tumor, but I'm not sure. You'd better go to the hospital for a checkup. If this disease is treated early, it's not a serious illness at all."
After hearing this, the old village chief had a complicated look on his face. He was touched by Qin Wan's concern and courage, but he was also worried that his illness would affect his work and family. Now, he couldn't afford to be sick.
"Qin Wan, I appreciate your kindness. But I'm afraid my illness is not easy to cure." The old village chief sighed, his tone revealing helplessness and worry.
"Old Village Chief, don't worry. Go to the hospital for a check-up first. If it's confirmed, we can discuss treatment. If you trust me, I can also treat you with traditional Chinese medicine. It won't cost much."
Qin Wan clenched her fists, her eyes flashing with determination. She knew that this was not only a promise to the old village chief, but also a test of her own ability.
Seeing Qin Wan's determination, the old village chief no longer refused. He nodded and agreed to Qin Wan's request.
The team leader said, "In that case, it's better to hurry up sooner rather than later. Old Village Chief, you don't need to go to work today. Let Auntie accompany you to the hospital for a checkup. The sooner you get checked, the more peace of mind you'll have!"
