Some froze to death, while others were crushed to death by snow collapsing their houses.
It took several years for the northern desert to recover after that snowstorm; let's just hope this snow doesn't last too long.
Looking at the snowflakes falling all around, Su Jingshu sighed silently.
The snow fell heavier and heavier, and they traveled very slowly. They had only covered half of the fifty li (about 25 kilometers) by nightfall.
Despite the increasingly difficult road ahead, they did not stop.
"Mother, Mother, what's wrong? Don't scare your daughter."
Suddenly, a crying sound came from ahead. Zhou Mingxin immediately called for the caravan to stop and sent people to investigate.
The scouts returned shortly afterward.
"Second Young Master, there is a mother and daughter ahead. The old woman seems to have fainted from the cold."
Zhou Mingxin thought for a moment. Whether the other party was a good person or a bad person, he didn't dare to risk them because of his mother and Ning Bao.
Just as Zhou Mingxin was struggling with his decision, Bai Mingyang spoke up.
"I'll go take a look," Bai Ming said, taking out his medicine box from his storage talisman and urging his horse forward.
Ahead, in the snow, a woman sat on the ground, half-embracing an old woman, weeping.
Bai Ming dismounted and went to the woman.
"Young lady, I'm a doctor. Do you need my help?"
In his previous life, Bai Ming could be described as a medical fanatic, but in this life, he is not a pushover.
Before seeing a doctor, he would definitely ask his guardian's opinion, and if they agreed, he would go for a check-up.
If you don't agree, then forget it. Anyway, this order will be free if nothing unexpected happens.
He wasn't willing to be a pushover if he couldn't earn a single penny.
The woman looked up at Bai Ming, and when she saw his face clearly, she was stunned. This doctor was too handsome.
The woman glanced at Bai Ming, then quickly looked away.
"Thank you, doctor. I'd like to trouble you to take a look at my mother, but... I don't have any money on me, so I might not be able to pay the consultation fee."
The woman's voice grew softer and softer as she spoke, her face full of embarrassment.
"But don't worry, I will definitely pay you back when I have the money."
"It's no trouble at all, it was just a small favor, I won't charge you for the consultation."
Bai Ming, holding the medicine box, squatted down in front of the old woman.
After taking his pulse, Bai Ming sighed.
"The old woman is not in good condition. She already has lesions in her body, and now the cold has entered her body. Even if she pulls through this time, she will need medicine in the future."
"Do you think we still want to save you? If so, I'll write a prescription and get the medicine for you right away."
Upon hearing this, the woman knelt down with a thud.
"Save her, of course you must save her! Doctor, please save my mother. I will repay you no matter what, even if it means serving you like a slave."
Bai Ming quickly stood up, preventing the woman from touching him.
"Alright! Since you're willing to help, I'll go and get the medicine for you."
After Bai Ming finished speaking, he mounted his horse and headed towards the convoy.
Upon seeing him return, Zhou Mingxin hurriedly went to greet him.
"How about it?"
"It doesn't seem dangerous."
Bai Ming took out a pen and paper and leaned over the carriage to write down a prescription. He had a wider selection of medicines than most pharmacies.
Since I've already done a good deed, I might as well go all the way and give her some medicine; he has plenty anyway...
