"No, I can go by myself."
When Zhou Ziwen heard that Wu Dagang was going to arrange for someone to go into the mountains with him, he shook his head and refused without thinking.
Collecting herbs is not that easy, and he is also planning to go deep into the mountains.
Because there are many medicinal herbs in the deep mountains, they can be dug quickly.
If he lets other people follow, he will have to take care of them.
"Okay, then be careful and remember to bring your stuff with you."
Wu Dagang gave an instruction.
"Yeah, I understand."
Zhou Ziwen nodded.
After saying goodbye to Wu Dagang, Zhou Ziwen did not delay.
He first went back home, brought his herbal medicine collecting equipment, and then went into the mountains with Tayun.
It’s a rare opportunity to go into the mountains, and with Tayun, you might get some unexpected gains.
The rain outside was very light now, just a drizzle, which didn't delay him from going out.
Because the medicine in the clinic had run out, Zhou Ziwen didn't waste any time.
After entering the mountain, head straight to the destination.
He had been to the mountains many times and knew where the herbs grew.
It took him more than half an hour to reach Sidao Mountain.
After arriving at the place, Zhou Ziwen took immediate action.
He dug out each herb with its roots and put them into his backpack.
There are many kinds of medicines used in traditional Chinese medicine. There is nothing that cannot be used as long as you can think of it.
Not to mention herbs and the like, insects, wood, tree roots, and even cow dung and chicken droppings all have special effects.
Earlier, Chinese medicine was called witchcraft by foreigners.
Because traditional Chinese medicine has been passed down for so long, some of its techniques cannot even be explained by science.
It is obvious that a herb contains the same elements after analysis, but it looks different in the eyes of traditional Chinese medicine.
Some Chinese medicines use leaves, some use roots, and some use branches.
The effects vary depending on the location.
There were a lot of medicinal herbs in the place Zhou Ziwen found, and he filled a whole basket in a short while.
Then he went to other places to replenish the limited supply of herbs in the clinic.
While he was picking herbs, Tayun was not idle either.
Taoyun has come to the mountains more often than Zhou Ziwen.
After entering the mountains, no one knew where it went.
When it came back, it had a roe deer in its mouth.
"Oh, that's good. You can find prey even on rainy days."
Zhou Ziwen praised happily.
The rain outside had just stopped, and he didn't expect that Ta Yun actually caught prey.
And the prey was a silly roe deer.
Such a big roe deer is enough for them to eat for many days.
"Let's go home."
Zhou Ziwen took the roe deer and rushed home with the herbs.
He walked down the mountain and when he returned home, he found that there were quite a few people at home.
Zhou Chaoyang, Chen Zhaodi, Tang Yaoyao and the others were all there.
"Brother Ziwen, help me, I seem to have a cold."
When she saw Zhou Ziwen, Tang Yaoyao immediately ran over pitifully.
"You have a cold too?"
Zhou Ziwen looked carefully at Tang Yaoyao's expression.
Her face was flushed at this moment, but in Zhou Ziwen's eyes, it seemed a little abnormal.
"Didn't you drink the ginger soup yesterday?"
Zhou Ziwen frowned.
"I drank it. It's probably because I didn't cover myself properly with the quilt last night."
Tang Yaoyao explained pitifully.
“You…”
Zhou Ziwen shook his head. "They're making medicine at the Youth Hostel. Go ask them for a bowl. I'll bring back a set later."
Zhou Ziwen touched her forehead and asked about the details.
Tang Yaoyao's situation is better than those in the Youth League Institute.
When she came back from being caught in the rain yesterday, Chen Shiying brought her a bowl of ginger soup. It was nothing serious, but it turned out that the girl didn't sleep well at night, so she had a slight cold.
"Then I'll go now."
Hearing this, Tang Yaoyao said hurriedly.
"Go!"
Zhou Ziwen nodded.
The medicine at the Youth League Home is for treating colds, and it's just the right remedy for Tang Yaoyao.
"Brother Ziwen, are you going out?"
Seeing that Zhou Ziwen looked like he was getting ready to go out, Chen Qiaoyi asked.
"Well, the clinic is still waiting for the medicine. I'll send the herbs over first."
Zhou Ziwen began to explain.
"When will you come back so we can cook?"
Chen Qiaoyi asked.
"You guys eat first, I don't know how long it will take me to be back."
Zhou Ziwen shook his head.
There were many villagers leaving the clinic in the morning. After such a long time, there must be even more people coming to see the doctor.
"I just caught a silly roe deer in the cloud. I'll come back and cook it later. We'll stew the roe deer tonight."
Before leaving, Zhou Ziwen gave some instructions.
"OK."
Chen Shiying nodded.
They couldn't skin the roe deer, so they had to wait for Zhou Ziwen to come back.
…
Here, Zhou Ziwen came to the clinic with herbs.
The clinic was much busier than usual, with quite a few people standing outside. The scene was not much different from a normal production team meeting.
Outside, Wu Dagang and the team leader were maintaining order. When they saw Zhou Ziwen coming, they immediately went to greet him.
"Ziwen, you're finally back. We're in trouble now. Yesterday, many people went home in the rain and caught colds. People from the neighboring Niushan Village, Yangjia Village, and Xiaobazi Village are here."
When Wu Dagang saw Zhou Ziwen, he felt like he had seen a savior.
"It's okay. I've already collected the herbs. They're definitely enough for today. I'll go to the mountain again this afternoon and dig up some more. It should be enough to last me for a few days."
Zhou Ziwen's steady tone made Wu Dagang feel relieved.
"Ziwen, I heard they've been infected with some virus, and even healthy people can be infected. Is that true?"
Wu Dagang asked worriedly.
"Well, the flu virus can indeed infect people with weak constitutions, but don't worry, I have medicine here. Uncle Wu will go to the production team and make a broadcast, asking all the villagers to take the medicine. If you are sick, you can get treatment, and if you are not, you can prevent it."
Zhou Ziwen nodded and then directly told him how to deal with it.
"The whole village wants to drink it?"
Wu Dagang asked in surprise.
"Yes, this is the only way to prevent infection."
Zhou Ziwen nodded.
"Okay, I'll go inform everyone right away."
Wu Dagang nodded hurriedly.
At this time, Wu Dagang was still very decisive.
Zhou Ziwen is an excellent doctor and has a medical qualification certificate.
In this regard, he trusts Zhou Ziwen very much.
"Uncle Wu, don't worry. These are the herbs I just dug up. I need a few people to help me process them."
Zhou Ziwen stopped Wu Dagang who was about to leave.
"Who do you need?"
Wu Dagang asked.
"Hardworking and careful."
Zhou Ziwen made two requests.
"No problem, I'll find someone for you right away."
Hearing this, Wu Dagang agreed without thinking.
The people Zhou Ziwen wants are very simple, and most of the aunts and grandmas in the village meet the requirements.
Wu Dagang just shouted twice, and immediately several aunts and grandmas stood up.
"Ziwen, what do you want us to do?"
"Xiao Zhou, we'll do whatever you say."
…
The aunties and grandmas said enthusiastically. (End of this chapter)
