She took out a small bag of pills and handed it to Wu Li.
"Take one pill a day and the remaining poison will disappear. Don't try any medicines indiscriminately in the future. You were lucky last time, and you ran into Grandpa You. If you had been just a little bit off, you would have been gone!"
Wu Li didn't seem to care much, but Wu Qiang was filled with lingering fear.
"Brother, you must never study medicine on your own again. It's too frightening!"
Wu Li did not agree to his request, but instead clutched the small cloth bag tightly in her hand.
Qin Luo could tell from his expression that he wouldn't give up, but she didn't say anything.
After all, this is someone else's family matter, and it's not appropriate for her, an outsider, to interfere.
If they really wanted to study medicine under Dr. You, they would naturally persuade Wu Nian first, and then ask her for the address.
He should try to persuade Doctor You through his own determination, instead of taking advantage of Wu Nian's absence to voice his empty ideas here.
Until the beginning of Shen Shi (3 PM)
Wu Hua was carried back by Wu Nian, and Wu Fu, who was following behind them, now truly lived up to his name and was not rich at all.
The three of them were carrying a lot of things, including clothes and toys.
In addition to the silver bracelet Qin Ling had given her, Wu Hua now had a pair of gold bracelets on her wrist.
Wu Nian put the things away and handed a gift box to Qin Luo.
"Luo Luo, this is for you. Wear it when you come of age!"
Qin Luo opened the box and saw that inside was a hair ornament!
There is a graceful butterfly on it, and several rubies hang from the pendant.
Qin Luo felt it was too precious. Although Wu Nian was a centurion, he still had a sick father and three younger brothers who were burdens on his family.
She closed the box and returned it.
"Uncle Wu, this is too valuable, I can't accept it!"
Wu Nian then forced it into her hand.
"Here you go, just take it! Even if you didn't save my dad, can't I, as your uncle, buy my niece a gift?"
Wu Li and Wu Qiang hadn't even figured out who had reached the age of marriage when Wu Nian mentioned "niece," which stunned them both.
The two of them looked at Qin Luo in disbelief at the same time.
"Are you a girl?"
Qin Luo nodded matter-of-factly: "Yes!"
Then the two pointed to Old Master Wu on the bed, and then to the urine bag.
For a moment, the guilt the two felt towards Qin Luo was no less than that they felt when Wu Fu learned the truth about buying the hairpin.
Wu Fu was initially reluctant to spend the money, but after learning that Qin Luo was a girl, he deliberately chose the most expensive one.
Seeing their awkward expressions, Qin Luo chuckled calmly.
"Haha! You don't need to worry about it. The catheter was inserted by the baby. I was only responsible for the one in the waist! Besides, in a doctor's eyes, there are no men or women, we are all just patients!"
The four sons of the Wu family were filled with nothing but admiration when they heard him say that. If it were any other girl, she would have been mortified.
As expected of the granddaughter of a legendary healer, she truly shares the same compassionate heart as Doctor You.
The four of them took turns praising Qin Luo and Wu Hua, and insisted that she accept the gifts, otherwise they would feel uneasy!
Qin Luo had no choice but to put the hairpin away, thinking that she would return the favor with a gift when she arrived, thus evening things out.
Two more days passed, and Qin Luo carefully examined Old Master Wu, finding that he was recovering very well.
She then waved the handkerchief to knock him unconscious, removed the catheter, and used her healing power to restore his wounds to about 70-80%.
That night, he told Wu Nian that he was leaving the next day.
She handed Wu Nian a packet of pills.
"Uncle Wu, if you feed Grandpa Wu one pill every day, he won't be able to walk for long!"
Wu Nian gratefully accepted it and handed her a small booklet.
"What's written here is what I found out over the past two days!"
Qin Luo took it and flipped through it; it was written in great detail.
It not only accurately describes when the crying would occur within the city, but also how many eminent monks and Taoist priests volunteered to exorcise the evil spirits.
Qin Luo was quite shocked after reading it; he hadn't expected that people from other worldly backgrounds would be so kind-hearted.
She decided that once she arrived in Chunyang County, she would wait for Jingming and then go inside.
Although I've experienced the apocalypse and time travel, I'm still a little scared.
Besides, she doesn't know how to catch ghosts; professional tasks should be left to professionals.
After thanking Wu Nian, she put the booklet into her cloth bag.
After chatting for a few more minutes, the two went back to their rooms to rest.
Early the next morning
Qin Luo left one hundred taels of gold in the guest room, and Wu Hua left ten gemstones.
The two first went to say goodbye to Old Master Wu before heading to the main hall.
Wu Nian prepared breakfast early in the morning, and he also called back the three scholars from the Wu family.
Everyone urged the two to be careful on the road, and to run to Changjin County immediately if anything happened, and not to be reckless!
After thanking him, Qin Luo said he would definitely protect himself and Wu Hua.
If something happens, they will definitely run back for help, which shuts up their incessant chatter!
After everyone finished breakfast, Wu Nian led the donkey-hide gelatin to the courtyard gate.
They loaded all the food and gifts they had prepared for the two of them into the car.
Before leaving, Qin Luo glanced at Wu Li, and that glance seemed to give him immense courage.
He knelt down in front of Wu Nian and explained his thoughts.
There was none of the expected furious refusal. Wu Nian helped him up and personally pulled him to Qin Luo to ask for Doctor You's address.
Qin Luo smiled and handed Wu Li the address that had already been written out of the cloth bag.
"I'll give you the address, but I can't be sure if Grandpa You will take on another apprentice. You'll have to win him over yourself!"
Wu Li excitedly took the note and nodded emphatically.
"I understand, I will try my best!"
Qin Luo gave him one last instruction: to bring the prescription he had developed during the epidemic.
Then, after lifting Wu Hua onto the donkey cart and waving goodbye, he drove the donkey-hide gelatin cart out of Changjin County…
Only after leaving the city gates of Changjin County did Wu Hua ask Qin Luo...
