Shulan was surrounded by a group of old and young people dressed in animal skins.
We arrived at a rather large cave, which was quite spacious and even contained a hot spring, providing warmth and comfort when the weather was cold.
But...
She looked at an old man lying on an animal skin and asked, "Has the old priest always lived in this cave?"
There are few people here who understand the Taiho language, so Neldonaghi naturally has to stay next to them.
Upon hearing the question, he quickly replied, "Yes."
He asked worriedly, "Is there a problem?"
Shulan bluntly stated, "Of course there are problems. Although this hot spring is very good and convenient, it is also very humid, which is not good for the elderly."
After saying that, she began to take the old man's pulse.
As she suspected, the old man had been living in such a humid place for many years, and his body was full of dampness.
There he said, "Besides rheumatoid arthritis, his main problem is bronchitis, which was triggered by wind-heat a while ago."
Although no one could understand what they were hearing, they all looked like they were listening intently, clearly worried about the old priest.
The old clan chief said a few words, but his accent was too heavy and he spoke too fast, so Shulan couldn't understand him.
Naldonagy translated, "My father asked, 'Can the priest be cured?'"
Shulan said, "Yes, but he has phlegm in his body, and it's very uncomfortable if he can't get rid of it. Once it's expelled, he can take good care of himself and there won't be any problems."
These are all age-related diseases.
It's clear that the old priest was in excellent health when he was young.
This is because the illness was not treated in time, which led to these problems.
She said, "I'll try to clear the phlegm first. If the phlegm comes out, you should find a warm, comfortable and dry place for the elderly to stay as soon as possible."
She said, "You said you have medicinal herbs here, right?"
Seeing that Naldonagy nodded, she said, "I said, write down the prescription, go get the medicine, and brew it for the old man to drink right now."
"good."
Shulan began reciting: "3 qian of Fritillaria cirrhosa, 3 qian of Peucedanum praeruptorum, and mulberry bark..."
After he finished speaking, he looked at Naldonagy and was surprised to find that Naldonagy had repeated it word for word.
Shulan nodded: "Yes, that's right. Go get the medicine, then boil two bowls down to one. Go quickly."
“Okay.” Neldonaghi hurried off.
Shulan didn't sit idle either. After finding the old man's Dubi acupoint, she once again located the Bacun position and began pressing the acupoint.
Acupressure is effective for headaches, cough with phlegm, and lower limb weakness and paralysis.
Just as she had been massaging for the time it takes to drink half a cup of tea, the old man, who had been breathing heavily, began to pant and even cough.
Shulan said to He Fengmian, "Help the old priest up and make him spit out the phlegm in his mouth."
"Okay." He Fengmian helped the old man up.
Shulan took out the silver needles, but the candlelight was too dim, causing her to frown.
Unexpectedly, He Fengmian took out a luminous pearl from his bosom and handed it to her: "Can you see it clearly like this?"
The soft light emanating from the luminous pearl illuminated the area considerably and made her see more clearly.
Shulan quickly nodded: "Yes."
Then, I used silver needles to insert acupuncture needles into the elderly person, which helped him expel phlegm more easily.
Sure enough, after she slowly inserted the needle and then pulled it out, the old man immediately coughed up a lot of phlegm.
The smell was unpleasant, but Shulan didn't even blink, and slowly inserted the silver needle into another acupoint.
He Fengmian was supporting the old man, while the other members of the Heavenly God Tribe watched closely, all with solemn and concerned expressions, but no one spoke, afraid of disturbing Shulan.
After Shulan finished administering the acupuncture, the old priest, who had been unconscious, actually opened his eyes. Everyone else stared wide-eyed, their eyes filled with joy, and they chattered away.
The cave smelled terrible, Shulan thought, glancing at the clan chief beside her.
The middle-aged clan chief, who looked to be about fifty years old and had very black hair, spoke in a very broken, but at least Shulan could understand, Great Phoenix language: "Sudafu, Nisou."
Shulan said slowly, "Clan leader, find a suitable place for the elderly to rest as soon as possible."
The clan chief understood and nodded: "Hmm."
Then he began speaking in his native language to a man next to him who was about the same age as Keneldonagi, and the man quickly left.
Not long after, the medicine for Neldonaghi was also prepared as quickly as possible.
He carried the medicine and jogged over.
After the old man finished taking his medicine, Shulan instructed, "He's alright for now, but you still need to be careful tonight. If anything happens, be sure to call me. But if everything is fine, the old man should feel much better by tomorrow morning."
When Neldonaghi heard this and told everyone about it, they were even happier.
Seeing that Nardonagi said to Shulan and He Fengmian, "You two have worked hard, go and rest for a while."
Shulan took a nap and didn't feel anything, but thinking that He Fengmian must be tired after carrying her all the way, she nodded: "Okay."
He didn't say anything when they arranged for him to be with them.
They slept in a very luxurious manner, on a jade bed.
This bed is very smooth, comfortable to sleep on in the summer and not too cold in the winter. All you need to do is lay down an animal hide and cover yourself with a quilt made of animal hide.
Looking at the corn that was at least two meters long and wide, I clicked my tongue in amazement, and at the same time, my heart couldn't help but race.
She, who used to be able to sleep together without any distractions or change in expression, suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
But there's only one bed. I thought about how I used to be able to sleep with him without any worries. I can't just suggest sleeping separately now, can I?
He Fengmian, however, had no intention of taking advantage of the young lady at this moment, and said, "I'll sleep over there."
There was only a large wooden stump over there, used as a place to put things.
She's not even enough to sleep with, how could she possibly sleep with a man who's 1.9 meters tall like him?
Shulan, not caring whether she was embarrassed or not, said, "You've been working so hard, let's sleep together."
Fearing he wouldn't want to sleep, she whispered, "We don't know what the situation will be like these next few days. If you don't get enough rest, it won't be easy to deal with them if they make any moves."
He Fengmian wanted to say that although it was just the two of them on the surface, the shadow guards were always following her in secret and would definitely be able to protect her safety if anything happened.
But in the end, he swallowed those words and simply said, "Okay."
The two lay on the jade bed, and it was probably almost dawn, with their eyes closed.
Shulan, however, was not sleepy and was calculating how much wealth she had.
With over 100,000 taels of silver, even if they leave, there shouldn't be any problem at all.
Thinking that she needed to speed up her research on the Bone-Eating Poison after leaving this place, she realized she needed to do so.
She should get He's eldest brother cured as soon as possible. That way, if she wanted the He family to cover for her, they certainly wouldn't refuse.
Thinking about this made her feel much better.
