The witch is sick.
After a few days, the people in the tribe finally confirmed that the witch was indeed sick.
Because the aftereffects of being drunk are not that serious.
Being drunk does cause loss of appetite, but that is only short-term and will not last for several days in a row. Moreover, along with the loss of appetite, Wu's stomach also hurts.
This kind of pain is just a dull pain, not too severe.
Of course, this is what Wu said.
Wu also said that this was just a minor problem and there was no need to worry too much, it would get better on its own after a while.
Wu also said that he had felt this kind of pain before, but it had never lasted as long as it did now.
It's not a big deal.
Although the witch said this, Han Cheng and the other people from the Qingque tribe, including the eldest brother, were still very worried.
What Han Cheng was worried about was that Wu was old, and from the sound of his voice, he seemed to have stomach discomfort for more than a day or two.
Old people are different from young people. Young people can get sick and it will pass, but it is really hard to say about old people.
No one knows which illness they will not survive...
What the eldest brother and others are worried about is actually different from what Han Cheng is worried about.
What they were worried about was that Wu had lost his appetite and was not eating as much as before.
In this era, in their perception, as long as a person can eat, it means that there are no major problems and that he is physically strong.
But once a person can't eat, no matter how strong that person is, they will feel it is dangerous.
Wu is a strong-willed person and also someone who cares about the tribe.
He didn't want to see the Son of God and the rest of the tribe worried about their own affairs.
So after observing for some time, Wu's appetite suddenly increased when he was eating.
Seeing this situation, many of the senior brothers were delighted.
They felt that Wu was fine and his body had recovered.
Even Han Cheng, the son of God of the Qingque tribe, felt relieved and relaxed a lot.
After this went on for more than two days, Yuan, the witch's spouse, came here, found Han Cheng, and told him the truth.
"Son of God...Wu...Wu was forcing himself to eat all these times. He actually didn't want to eat. After eating, his stomachache became even worse.
When there are people around, he doesn't show it and pretends nothing has happened, as if nothing has happened and everything is fine. But when there is no one around, he will show signs of pain. Sometimes when he goes to bed at night, he will groan in pain and have to sleep on his stomach with a pillow to help relieve the pain.
Son of God, please think of a way and find out what is going on with Wu..."
When Yuan said this, her eyes became red and tears couldn't help but flow out of her eyes.
After living together for all these years, Yuan has developed deep feelings for Wu, an old man in the tribe and also her own man.
She was impressed by the old man's wisdom and qualities, and had long regarded him as her own relative.
At this time, he suddenly fell ill. Yuan was really worried. She was very, very worried that she would lose this person and would never see him again...
If that happens, it would be really uncomfortable, so uncomfortable!
She didn't know how she would live alone in the days ahead...
After learning the truth from Yuan, Han Cheng was stunned for a moment.
“This is bullshit!!”
After being stunned for a while, Han Cheng slapped the table, said this, then opened the door and rushed out.
After taking two steps, he remembered something and stopped again.
He paused where he was, then resumed his normal pace and walked towards the room where the witch was at an ordinary speed.
He did this because he didn't want to cause a big commotion in the tribe and spark panic among the tribesmen, thinking that the witch's condition had become more serious.
At the same time, this is also an understanding of the original meaning of witch.
From what Yuan had just said, he knew that the witch didn't want too many people in the tribe to pay attention to his condition and feel worried and uncomfortable about it.
In Han Cheng's heart, he actually has special respect for this old man.
By now, I have already regarded him as my own relative and elder.
Since Wu wanted to do this, Han Cheng could only try his best to take care of his thoughts and feelings.
"Wu, how are you?"
Han Cheng came to Wu's room and saw Wu sitting on the edge of the bed holding a rabbit, and asked.
When Wu saw Han Cheng coming, he stood up and smiled, "Nothing's wrong. I'm much better now. Look how much I've eaten in the past few days. My appetite has increased again. There's no big problem."
Han Cheng looked at Wu who was pretending nothing happened and was silent for a moment.
"I can see that you are still not feeling well. You have been forcing yourself to eat these past few days so as not to worry us.
Wu, don’t do this. If you feel uncomfortable, we will find a way to cure it…”
Han Cheng said this to Wu, only saying that he had seen it himself. He did not tell him about what Yuan had said to him, for fear that Wu would get angry and blame Yuan, making things difficult for the two of them.
"Son of God, I..."
Hearing Han Cheng say this, Wu seemed nervous and at a loss for a moment. He wanted to explain something, but he couldn't open his mouth for a while.
"Wu, we all know how you feel. We know you don't want us to worry and are afraid that it will have a bad impact on us, but there are some things that cannot be hidden."
Han Cheng quickly intervened and comforted Wu.
The witch nodded.
Looking at Wu who had lost a lot of weight, Han Cheng felt uncomfortable and heavy in his heart.
After talking with Wu for some time, he prepared to go out and find Liang, the first doctor in the tribe, to discuss what to do in the face of Wu's situation and how to cure Wu's illness.
It was at this time that Wu spoke and asked Han Cheng to stop.
"Son of God, wait a moment."
When Han Cheng heard Wu's shout, he stopped, turned around and looked at Wu, waiting for his next words.
"Son of God, I...I...I want to discuss something with you."
Wu seemed to be hesitant when he spoke.
Han Cheng smiled and nodded: "If you have anything to say, just tell me."
"I...I want to...I want to go out for a walk and see our tribe!"
"Over the years, the tribe has grown so big, and I have only been to the Tongshan residential area, the Qinling residential area, and the Hukou residential area, which are the residential areas on the north side of the mountains.
As for the more distant Jinguan City, Tieshan Residential Area, Sanxingdui Residential Area and Qidian Residential Area, I had only heard about them from people in the tribe and seen them in paintings, but I had never been there to see them in person.
Now, I want to take a look at these places in our tribe.
Without really taking a look, I always feel like something is missing.
I am old.
Although I don't want to admit it, I am really old.
Now I have this problem again, and my body seems even worse. If I don’t leave the tribe and visit these places now, I’m afraid I won’t have another chance in the future…”
As Wu said this, her eyes became a little red, and her gaze towards Han Cheng was full of sincerity and longing for this trip.
Looking at the witch in this state and listening to what she said, Han Cheng was silent for a moment, his heart full of emotion.
"Wu, your health is not good to begin with. If you go through this again, I'm afraid...
How about this, we take care of our bodies, and then start from the tribe to do this thing, do you think it's okay?"
After Han Cheng pondered for a while, he spoke to Wu and asked for his opinion. He was really worried that something bad might happen to Wu because of this long journey.
Wu shook his head.
"Son of God, I know my own body. According to the current situation, the longer I stay in the tribe, the weaker my body will become. It is impossible to recover from this disease. Even if I recover, my body will definitely not be as healthy as it is now.
I've lived long enough.
He is the longest-lived person in the tribe.
Huo Yi and Huo Er have not lived as long as I have, so this is already enough.
If anything unexpected happens on this trip, then let it happen. Even if it does, there is nothing to regret for me.
After all, I have lived long enough.
But if I were to stay in the tribe forever, I would feel uncomfortable and regretful when I think about the many places in the tribe that I have not visited.
In fact, I have long wanted to visit those places in the south and take a good walk in the area that belongs to our tribe.
It’s just that you, Son of God, and many people in the tribe are worried about my health, afraid that I won’t be able to endure such a journey, so we never told them and never went south.
Now, I am older, I have lived a few more years, and I have some health problems. If I don’t do this, I am afraid I will never have the chance again.”
"Son of God, I don't want you to wait until I die before you take my ashes from the main tribe to the south and let me see the places in the south that belong to us.
Because I know that at that time, I must have known nothing. Even if I had been to many places and experienced many things, I would still know nothing, which was equivalent to not having been to our tribe.
I really want to go and see it, I don't want to leave any regrets...
Son of God, I have been in the tribe for so long, but I have never truly begged you for anything.
This time, I'm begging you.
In the past, I always thought about considering the tribe more and living longer.
Now that I am old and in poor health, I also want to live for myself and do the things I want to do.
Son of God, please let me be willful this time..."
After listening to Wu's words, Han Cheng finally couldn't bear it anymore. He nodded vigorously and reached out to hold Wu's hand.
"Okay! If you want to go and have a look, then let's go together! Let's take a look at our tribe's business!
Look at what our tribe has achieved over the years!!
Look at the great men of our tribe, what they have built over the years!!!"
Seeing Han Cheng say this, Wu, an old man in the tribe, suddenly laughed. He opened his mouth wide, revealing his few remaining teeth, and was as happy as a child.
At this moment, it seemed that all the pain had gone away from him.
Han Cheng was a man of his words. He agreed to go south with Wu on the same day, and on the morning of the next day, he set off from the tribe with Wu.
On the one hand, it was because Wu was really old and sick. The longer he waited, the more disadvantageous it would be for him.
On the other hand, it is already late autumn and the weather will become colder and colder. If we wait for a while until heavy snow falls, it will be even more difficult to set out from the tribe and head south at that time.
So after agreeing to Wu's request to go south, Han Cheng immediately began to gather people from the tribe and started to arrange things without stopping.
Prepare for Wu's journey south.
The giants of the two tribes, Hancheng and Wu, set out from the main tribe. The eldest brother, the leader of the tribe, needs to stay here and guard the tribe.
In fact, the eldest brother really wanted to go south with Wu and the Son of God.
Because Wu was indeed old, he was very worried that this long journey would be his last...
It's a real pity that I wasn't with him.
After all, Wu had already existed when he was a child. Over the years, he had already developed a very deep affection for Wu and regarded Wu as an elder.
At this moment, he felt really sad that he couldn't walk with Wu.
But at the same time, he knew that no one could leave the tribe at this time, at least the witch, the son of God and himself could not leave together.
There always needs to be someone staying here.
Therefore, even though I really hope to go south with the Son of God and the others, I want to accompany Wu on this journey.
But after the Son of God spoke out about this, the eldest brother immediately took on the task of staying behind in the tribe.
Life is like this, many times we can't do whatever we want.
This is caused by responsibility and accountability.
Only those who are responsible and capable of taking responsibility can, when necessary, suppress their desire to do something and do more important things.
In addition to Han Cheng, the people who went south with Wu included Xiao Wandou'er, Xiao Xing'er, Yuan and Yuan's little daughter.
A guy named Shitou was also in the group, and Heiwa was also walking there.
Tietou'er, the person in charge of the horse farm, didn't know the news, so he didn't go with them.
Liang, the tribe's number one doctor, was also drafted by Han Cheng this time and went south with Han Cheng and others...
