Chapter 48 The Map in the Doghouse
Zhou Ye walked to the door of the room amidst everyone's expectant gazes.
She stopped!
He turned to Huang Ying and said, "I'm just trying. If I can't cure him and he dies, you can't blame me!"
Huang Ying was stunned for a moment, then knelt down straight: "Thank you, as long as you try, you will be my benefactor!"
I will be grateful to you for the rest of my life!
Zhou glanced at it, his face expressionless.
Why should you express gratitude to someone like that?
It's good that she doesn't hate you!
Once inside, Chen Lan was completely exhausted. Zhou told everyone else to leave and took out some spiritual spring water from his spatial storage, giving Chen Lan a sip.
In an instant, Chen Lan was like a parched leaf in the desert receiving a long-awaited rain, a sip of spiritual spring water completely soaking into the depths of her soul.
"Heh..."
He finally caught his breath, and his complexion changed from ashen to a normal, weak white.
Her eyes darted around, glancing slightly in Zhou Ye's direction, and tears of gratitude streamed down her face.
"Don't look at me like that. I'm not being kind; I'm just testing you. If you die, it's your bad luck!"
Zhou also spoke heartless words without any mercy.
Chen Lan was too weak to speak at this moment, but her eyes showed genuine gratitude!
It's too painful. Even if Zhou Ye could just give her a quick death right now, that would be good!
Zhou also stepped forward and inserted a few needles. Chen Lan first widened her eyes, then felt a fatigue she had never experienced before, and her eyelids drooped heavily.
The room fell silent. Zhou came out, his face expressionless.
The village chief exclaimed in shock, "Dead...dead?"
Everyone looked at her expectantly, while Zhou remained silent...
They begged me for ages, and as soon as I came out, they asked me if I was dead.
"She's asleep; she's not dead yet!"
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief!
Being able to sleep is a skill in itself; even dying in one's sleep is better than suffering in agony!
"Let's go, Village Chief!"
Village chief Xie Youfu exclaimed, "Where to?"
"Go to your doghouse!"
"Ah, right...right, I still need to go to my doghouse to get the medicine! Come on, let's go!"
Village chief Xie Youfu walked briskly ahead, while his wife Wang Guihua pulled Zhou Ye aside to talk.
"How is the person? Is there any hope for treatment?"
Wang Guihua was worried, but her biggest worry was Zhou Ye, who was so young to be sent to the countryside. Shouldn't she take extra care of him?
But because of his medical skills, he also had the responsibility of saving lives.
A pang of heartache welled up inside me.
"I don't know, but it seems fine so far! Let's give it a try!"
Zhou didn't say anything absolute, what if he died!
Wang Guihua nodded...
This kid is extraordinary; he has remarkable courage to even try!
When they arrived at the village chief's house, the village chief had already pulled the dog out of its kennel and said to Zhou Ye with a smile, "Girl, go in and see if the kennel is there."
The village chief held the dog tighter. In his heart, he always felt that the folk remedy Zhou Ye found might be dog poop, but he said he was going to the doghouse because of face or for the sake of mystery.
Zhou didn't hesitate and climbed in directly.
In the countryside, dog kennels are just makeshift structures made of mud bricks, filthy inside, and lined with some dry straw...
She carefully examined every corner of the doghouse; the walls were bare... except for the filthy dog poop, there was nothing there.
That shouldn't be happening!
I've inquired about the song; it did indeed originate from the cowshed, only missing the little dog's line.
It must be related to dogs.
You can't exactly hide the food inside the dog's stomach, can you? Or what if the dog ate it?
He shook his head to clear his mind, trying not to think about these absurd possibilities, and began searching carefully again.
He lifted the hay and began to touch the ground, but there was nothing... nothing suspicious at all! If it wasn't in the village chief's doghouse, then where was it?
Or is it that the folk song left by Grandpa doesn't mean that?
Zhou Ye once again fell into self-doubt!
With my eyes closed, I felt a bit restless!
Sudden……
If it's not on the ground, not on the wall, then it's...underground?
Zhou opened his eyes, took out a small shovel from his spatial storage. Luckily, the doghouse wasn't big. Thinking that Grandpa would hide things, even if he buried them, he wouldn't bury them by the door, so he started digging from the corner...
After digging for a short while, they encountered a hard object!
Zhou Ye blocked the doorway with his body, preventing anyone from entering. Zhou Ye then took out a small box from the ground.
Its diameter is only about ten centimeters.
Zhou was also very excited. She felt that she had found it, found the other half of the contents left by her grandfather, the other half of the secret!
We'll soon find out who killed my grandparents.
I'll get my revenge soon!
Soon I will be able to go see my mom and dad.
Upon opening the box, there was a folded piece of paper inside. Zhou didn't unfold it but instead put it directly into his spatial storage.
After restoring the land to its original state and laying down licorice, Zhou emerged looking disheveled.
"Well? Did you find it?" The village chief and the dog he was pulling had the same expression.
"Yes, found it!"
Zhou Ye gave a casual reply, and the village chief Xie Youfu, seeing Zhou Ye's tightly clenched hand, understood.
It must be in his hand. Zhou Zhiqing has high medical ethics. In order to treat and save lives, he actually held this dirty thing with his bare hands. It is truly admirable!
Even the dog looked surprised...
Are people trying to take over my place?
"Do you want to wash up?" Zhou Ye looked over and saw that Xie Jianshe had returned from outside at some point, carrying some things in his hands!
Clearly, they didn't expect Zhou to come out of the doghouse!
Zhou Ye pursed her lips: "No need, I'll go back and wash up!"
After Zhou left, the village chief Xie Youfu glared at his son: "That educated youth Zhou was willing to go to the dog's den to find folk remedies in order to cure the sick and save people."
To save face for the patient, you don't dare to expose the items. You've finally managed to save them up, and you're asking them to wash them?
What are you up to?
Xie Jianshe frowned: "Treat the illness by going to the doghouse?"
"You don't know anything!" The village chief glanced at him disdainfully and tied the dog up.
Xie Jianshe touched his nose, thought for a moment, took out a box of soap from his pocket, and handed it to Wang Guihua.
"You bought this for me?" Wang Guihua looked at Xie Jianshe in shock.
You know your own son best.
"What do you mean? Who did you buy it for? Do you want me to deliver it?"
Xie Jianshe pulled Wang Guihua aside and asked mysteriously, "Mom, do you want a daughter-in-law?"
One sentence completely ignited Wang Guihua's long-dormant gossip-loving heart.
Who is it?
Xie Jianshe composed himself: "Ahem... Zhou Zhiqing, what do you think?"
"What?!" Wang Guihua looked at her youngest son in shock.
Zhou Ye?
Xie Jianshe assumed his mother disliked Zhou Ye, but considering Zhou Ye's personality, he thought there might be a misunderstanding. Although Zhou Ye had secrets and was decisive in her actions, Xie Jianshe could never give up on that initial attraction!
But……
With a "thud," Xie Jianshe was hit on the head and stared at his mother in shock.
"You brat, you're a pervert! How old is Zhou Ye? You're an animal! I've known you've never been well-behaved since you were little!"
Just as I expected!
snort! "
Faced with his mother's scathing criticism, Xie Jianshe felt helpless!
After Zhou Ye returned, he immediately opened the box. The folded paper unfolded, and inside was a map!
Frowning helplessly, what exactly did Grandpa mean?
The fact that something could be found in the village chief's doghouse proves that the folk song was indeed left to him by his grandparents.
Was the folk song about the rat found in the cowshed something Grandpa deliberately made to mislead people?
The map was drawn rather blurry, but it looked like there were five places, with a key drawn below each place.
Do we need to find the keys?
So, none of these are the main points. I remember when I was little, my grandpa would play a game of finding dolls with me, and it was like this.
Give yourself a map. The first key opens the second box, and correspondingly, the second box contains the key to the third box...
The success is only achieved when the doll is finally found.
This is what my grandfather left for me!
The first place is deep in the mountains, so we have to go up the mountain.
Zhou Ye sighed deeply, "The task ahead is arduous and the road is long!"
"Tap tap..."
"Zhou Ye, can you open the door?"
