The little hedgehog screamed, and its whole body curled up into a ball again, lying motionless on the ground.
Meng Fei fiddled with the little hedgehog with his hands, feeling a little amused and helpless.
"Don't worry, you can live here peacefully from now on. It's very safe here."
Hearing Meng Fei's words, the little hedgehog twisted his body and secretly glanced at Meng Fei through the gap in his body.
The elders of the family all said that humans were the most terrifying animals in the world, but now he could not sense any dangerous aura from Meng Fei.
Instead, I felt somewhat close to her, as if she were my own mother, friendly and gentle.
The little hedgehog slowly loosened its curled up body, stood on the ground and looked up at Meng Fei.
Little Hedgehog: "Is what you just said true?" Mom said that you humans are all bad guys.
Meng Fei smiled helplessly: "Don't worry, I'm different from them. You can live here from now on. When winter is over, you can go out as you like."
After saying that, Meng Fei no longer cared about the little hedgehog and continued to pick vegetables.
After a while, Meng Fei picked a bunch of vegetables and filled his backpack.
Then he took the little monkey and the little squirrel out of the valley and walked towards home.
After returning home, Meng Fei found that no one was at home, so he put down his backpack and went to Erye's house, but there was no one there either.
"Haha, I guess they are all playing poker and mahjong at Second Uncle's house."
Thinking of this, Meng Fei walked towards his second uncle's house.
But as soon as I entered my second uncle's house, I heard the noisy sound of people coming from the house, mixed with an unclear hoarse voice, which sounded like someone was enduring great pain.
Meng Fei was startled and quickly pushed the door open and entered the room.
As soon as I entered the room, I saw a large group of people gathered around the kang, with Shuyi's father in the middle.
I saw Shuyi's father lying on the earthen kang with his face distorted, one hand tightly covering his lower back. His face was bloodless and pale as a piece of white paper. His brows were tightly wrinkled due to the severe pain, forming a deep groove.
The intense pain was like surging waves, hitting his body and nerves wave after wave. Every time the pain came, it was like a sharp knife, stirring and cutting his lower back mercilessly.
The pain was so intense that Shuyi's father didn't even have the strength to groan. He could only grit his teeth and endure it.
Beads of sweat as big as beans kept pouring out from his forehead, then quickly slid down his cheeks, like beads that had broken off a string, dripping onto the kang mat beneath him. After a while, the sweat gathered into a small pool of water, soaking the surrounding bedding.
"What happened to my uncle?" Meng Fei pushed everyone away and came up to ask.
"Oh! Gouzi, you're back. My brother's rheumatism has come back. It's been painful for a long time. None of us can do anything about it. You're a good veterinarian. You should be able to treat humans. Please take a look at what's going on."
Meng Fei walked up to him and reached out to check Shuyi's father's lower back.
Although humans are also animals, there are still many differences. After groping for a while, Meng Fei could only choose the most conservative treatment method for safety reasons.
"Second Aunt, do you have any jars at home? Bring me two."
"Yes, yes, yes. I'll get it for you." Second Aunt nodded repeatedly and ran to the cupboard to rummage through the drawers.
Finally, he found a few black round glass jars in the corner of the cabinet and handed them to Meng Fei.
"Uncle, lighter, toilet paper."
"Oh! Okay, here you go." Second uncle quickly took out a lighter from his pocket and handed it to Meng Fei, then took out a roll of toilet paper from the quilt and handed it to Meng Fei.
Without saying a word, Meng Fei tore off a small piece of toilet paper, lit it and threw it into the can. As the flame burned, the can quickly became hot.
When the toilet paper was about to burn out, Meng Fei held the can with one hand and put it directly on Shuyi's father's waist.
The moment the burning scalding can mouth touched his skin, Shuyi's father did not react at all.
Because at this time the muscles and nerves around his waist were numb, even his entire lower body was numb, and he could not feel any pain at all.
Meng Fei did not delay and lit another cupping jar and placed it on the other side of his waist.
Feng Shuyi approached Meng Fei with an anxious look on his face and asked in a low voice: "Brother Meng, is this okay?"
Meng Fei shook his head: "Grandpa also had severe rheumatism in the past. When it was serious, it was very painful. Every time he had an attack, he would ask me to cup him. After that, he would feel much better. But this can only provide temporary relief. If you want to get rid of the root cause, you still need some external medicine."
"Great! What is that? I'll ask someone to buy it right away!" Feng Shuyi asked in surprise.
Meng Fei smiled and waved his hand. Just as he was about to speak, he heard a groan of relief coming from Shuyi's father.
“Hmm...so comfortable....”
Everyone was delighted and quickly gathered around.
At this moment, the two cupping jars on Shuyi's father's waist were like two miniature stoves, continuously releasing warm energy and slowly spreading to the surroundings.
This warmth seemed to have magical power, gradually dispelling the damp and cold air lingering around his waist.
Looking closely, you can see that the inside of the cup has condensed into a layer of dense, crystal clear water droplets. These water droplets are the moisture that was forcibly removed from Shuyi's father's waist.
As time went by, after just a dozen seconds, the skin, which had originally had a normal complexion, began to change.
It was slightly reddish at first, then the color gradually deepened and turned into purple-red, and in the end it was so purple that it looked a little black!
Seeing this scene, Meng Fei and others couldn't help but gasp.
Second Aunt: "Oh my god, it's so humid! It's all black!"
Qiubo's mother: "Oh my god, it gets dark so fast."
Seeing everyone's shocked expressions, Feng Shuyi's family panicked.
"Meng Fei! What's going on? Why is it dark? Is my dad poisoned?!"
Meng Fei chuckled and explained, "It's okay, don't worry. There is a saying in our Northeast that the more moisture there is in the body, the darker the color of the cupping marks will be. Normal people usually have bright red marks after the cupping, while those with more serious conditions will have dark red marks, and those with more serious conditions will have purple marks. This is the first time I've seen someone with purple marks that are almost black like my uncle's. It seems like he has a lot of moisture in his body."
At this time, the pain in Shuyi's father's waist had eased a lot, and the ferocious expression on his face had also relaxed a lot. He was breathing heavily.
"Huh~~~ This damn old problem almost cost me my life. Xiao Meng, thank you so much~" Shuyi's father lay on the pillow, thanking with lingering fear.
"Hey, it's just a can, nothing special."
At this moment, Feng Shuyi suddenly remembered what Meng Fei had just said, and asked quickly:
"Brother Meng!! What did you just tell me to do?"
