In the stone house.
The female lying on the stone bed had a pale and bloodless face, with her brows raised, as if she was suffering from some pain, and her skin also showed signs of cracking.
Surrounding her were her partner and one or two females, all looking at her in pain, at a loss as to what to do.
"All of you, get out of the way." Ruolan gave the order, and the female evil beasts retreated to the side. From behind Ruolan, they saw Chen Qi behind them.
"Witch doctor, please help me save the female. She just caught a cold. We know she's cold, and we've covered her with a blanket, but she's still like this."
"We thought it was starting to get warmer and we could indulge ourselves. But we were too careless. In such a cold day, we let the females go..."
"Female witch doctor, can you heal her? Please, she is in so much pain, and my heart hurts too." The evil beast almost grabbed her hand, and his tone was very excited.
Ruolan stood in front of her and raised her hand to stop him, looking at him coldly, "Move aside, she will come to save you."
Seeing him step back, Ruolan also moved aside to make room for Shen Qi.
Shen Qi saw her symptoms at a glance: dry and cracked skin, a moderate cold.
He took out a thin needle. He had learned some acupuncture techniques before, especially those that dispel wind and cold and promote blood circulation.
She heated the needle first to achieve better results.
"Help her sit up."
Hearing this, the evil beast beside him helped the female sit on the stone bed.
Find the Dazhui point on the back of the neck, on the posterior midline. Press gently with your hand. If you feel a depression, this is the Dazhui point.
Shen Qi pierced the area with a needle from the dorsal side to the ventral side.
The second one is Lieque point.
She took the female's hand, feeling the tightness and the bulging veins, and patted her, "Relax."
When the female heard these two words, her heartbeat seemed to become steadier, and her arms relaxed, letting her do whatever she wanted.
What she said just now gave her enough sense of security.
She didn't see the needle, but she suddenly felt a tingling sensation on the back of her neck. Although it was only a small thing that passed for a moment, it still made her nervous.
Shen Qi dove in quickly, and she pulled half of the animal skin off her body.
"Bring the firewood over there." The exposed skin will definitely catch a cold, and adding fire will help warm the meridians.
The evil beasts quickly took a still burning stick and placed it at a safe distance next to her, which just had a warming effect.
Shen Qi found the location of the Fengmen acupoint and gave it the last needle.
Seeing that she didn't continue with the acupuncture, an evil beast asked doubtfully, "Witch doctor, are you done?"
The female also turned to look at her. Except for some reaction to the first injection, she felt almost no pain after the next two injections.
"It will take some time. Depending on your physical condition, it may take even longer."
Shen Qi budgeted the time, usually it would take at least 20 minutes.
The animals warmed themselves by the fire. After waiting for about 25 minutes, she glanced at her lips, which had become much redder.
She pulled out the three needles. "How are you? Are you feeling better?"
"Hmm... My head doesn't seem to hurt anymore, and it's not cold anymore!" He looked at his dry and cracked hands, which had returned to normal.
Shen Qi was not surprised that she recovered so quickly, but she still felt that her recovery ability was a little slow. In the animal world, if there were still females suffering from this disease, those with strong constitutions might be able to recover in 20 minutes, or even faster.
Her physical condition was quite poor, mainly because of the heavy dampness in her body. So when the cold winter was about to end, she caught a cold due to her own carelessness.
"You should pay attention to keeping warm in the future, and don't do strenuous exercise in the next few days, including with you." Shen Qi glanced at her companions, and the group of companions immediately understood and knew what strenuous exercise she was talking about.
"You can drink some hot water properly. Boil the water and drink it when it is not too hot. This will prevent your skin from becoming so dry and cracked."
"Okay, witch doctor, we all know."
"Thank you, female! You're amazing! You're worthy of being our Demonic Beast City's witch doctor. You can cure any disease!"
One of the orcs looked at her expression and said, "Female witch doctor, we were forced to do everything before. It was Sheyan who forced us to do it. Now that he's dead, no one dares to bully us anymore. Don't listen to the rumors others spread about us and hate us."
"We were all forced. Although we were forced to do things before, we didn't do anything cruel."
"You are the only witch doctor in Demonic Beast City right now, a female witch doctor. Will you stay in Demonic Beast City forever?"
Shen Qi smiled but did not answer.
Being a witch doctor in Demonic Beast City is fine, but staying in Demonic Beast City forever? Of course not.
The animal world is so big, she still has a lot to explore.
Ruolan frowned at her calm expression. She didn't want to stay in Demonic Beast City...
Why? None of the demonic beasts here had any prejudice against her, and despite her androgynous appearance, they didn't dislike her.
She also couldn't figure out what this female had gone through, or what ethnic group had special physique that caused her face to be so dark.
Of course, her appearance is not stunning, but she is not ugly either, she is just dark enough.
But there is an inexplicable attraction to her. I want to get closer to her, but I feel a little distant.
Her personality is also unpredictable, sometimes cold, sometimes gentle, she doesn't know what words to use to describe her.
The evil beasts continued, "Female witch doctor, you have been here for many times and have done great service. If you stay here long enough, the king will reward you accordingly."
Shen Qi smiled faintly again: "Like you, I also have a partner, and he won't accept me staying here all the time."
They were all surprised to hear that she had a partner. They had thought she was so aloof and, judging by the gossip, she wasn't interested in their king either. They had thought she wasn't interested in any male beasts, but it turned out she already had a partner!
But after hearing what she said, it seemed like she only had one partner, which really shocked them!
Everyone envied her partner, who was willing to give up generous rewards to live with his partner.
All of these partners are vying to be pampered. Some males have been left alone for several days. There are even females who break up their mates directly because their partners are injured, regardless of the males' opinions.
Ruolan was surprised. She didn't expect that she already had a partner. Then she looked at her with a complicated expression.
No wonder he doesn't care about the Demonic Beast King. He already has a master...
She still cares about her partner, but why didn't her partner come with her?
She thought about it and felt that her partner would not be able to defeat the Evil Beast King, and the King's purpose towards her was also very obvious.
If Shen Qi brought his partner into the Evil Beast City, the king would definitely torture him in every possible way.
She chose not to stay with her partner in order to protect him...
