Chapter 151 The Two Brothers See a Doctor
Abli only felt a pain in his hand holding the knife, and his heart suddenly tightened: he was one of the strongest men in the Dilu Alliance, and this little bastard was not weak either.
If he is given more time, he will definitely become his enemy.
Zhao Tingduo was secretly shocked that his first attack did not work. Abli was already injured and still so ferocious, so he must not be let go.
The two horses had already rushed out several feet at this time. Zhao Tingduo turned his horse's head and prepared to fight with Abli again.
But Abli took advantage of the opportunity, pulled the horse's head, and urged it to escape.
The rest of the people also fled.
Thus, a chase began again on the Dilu grassland. As time went on, fewer and fewer people could follow Abli.
Looking at Abli who was fleeing in a panic in front of him, Zhao Tingduo's eyes were as sharp as knives, but he slowly put down the five-stone heavy bow in his hand.
"Young Master!" Abu rode over and asked curiously, "Why don't you shoot?"
At this time, Abli was still within five hundred steps, and only one arrow would take his life.
Zhao Tingduo turned his horse and followed slowly: "It's still useful to keep him alive! Let's drive him away first."
As long as Abuli is there, the Dongyue tribe will not disband, but it will not be able to maintain its status as the second-ranked tribe.
He couldn't kill Abli, so this time he just took a risk and succeeded.
In terms of strength, the Wuda tribe is no match for the Dongyue tribe, let alone annex it.
Now that Abuli is dead, the Dongyue tribe will become other people's food, which is not a good thing for their own tribe. Now all they need to do is cripple him and turn him into a delicious barbecue.
The Wuda tribe's foundation is unstable and it needs to stay out of the spotlight for the time being. With the Dongyue tribe attracting other people's attention, it is a good opportunity to slowly recover the pastures and forests it once had.
Finally, the people who stayed in the camp of the East Vietnam discovered that something was wrong, and Abli was escorted into the camp.
The White Wolf Cavalry pretended to charge several times, but were shot back by a rain of arrows before they left.
The Aburi returned, but he left behind dozens of bodies and all the faith that belonged to men.
The Wuda tribe had always used the fighting methods of the grassland tribes, which made him forget that they were a cavalry tribe that had learned from the Wu Dynasty Zhenbei Army for twenty years.
Lure the enemy, confuse them with false appearances, set traps and arrow arrays, and finally intercept and kill them.
Everything they used was exactly the Zhenbei Army's formation tactics that the Di Lu people feared the most.
Soon the news that Abli of the Dongyue tribe failed in his sneak attack and lost all his cavalry spread throughout the grassland, immediately attracting wolves and former enemies.
After returning to the tribe, Abli recovered from his injuries while dealing with the ensuing challenges and hidden concerns.
It’s not that he didn’t think about going to the Wuda tribe to seek revenge again, but the tribe’s strength had been greatly reduced and it could no longer withstand the next defeat.
In other words, even if it is a miserable victory, others will take the opportunity to swallow it up, so we must preserve our strength.
The Wuda tribe also became famous in one battle. In just one winter, it went from being a fleeing tribe that had just returned to having the potential qualifications to join the Di Lu alliance.
The ever-changing situation is like a raging wave sweeping across the grassland. Even if only the aftermath sweeps across Yunzhou, it makes many people sleepless day and night.
Song Liyun and his two siblings had great success in seeking medical treatment in Pingyang Prefecture.
Doctor Dai was an old doctor with a kind face. After examining Song Zhenping's leg injury, he shook his head and sighed, "The bone injury wasn't serious. It was just a lack of care and premature use of force that caused the broken ends to dislocate. If you want to treat it, it's not difficult. You just need to separate it from the fracture and let it heal again."
Song Zhenping's heartbeat was like a drum, and his ears were red. His own leg could still be treated, but then... he hurriedly asked, "Doctor, if I disconnect and reconnect it, how long will it take before I can walk again?"
Doctor Dai gave him a reproachful look and said, "Young man, why are you so impatient? A broken bone takes a hundred days to heal. If you want to recover, it will take at least six months. If it didn't heal properly, are you impatient?"
Song Zhenping had no words to express his suffering. He had no time to take care of the animals back then. He had to drag his legs to the fields the next day, otherwise he and Xiao An would have no food to eat.
When he heard that it would take half a year to raise the animal, he suddenly became anxious, as he still had to go to the garrison to load the goods.
I want to farm and sow seeds with high oil yield. How can I lie down for half a year?
Or maybe wait until after the autumn harvest and treat it, so you can take care of it all winter?
Song Zhenping's body was also examined. The old doctor said solemnly, "Young man, if you want to take care of your legs, you have to take care of your body first! You look okay now, but your foundation is weak. You can't rush to treat your legs."
After a winter of overeating, Song Zhenping's complexion is now rosy and he no longer looks thin.
But after taking his pulse, the doctor found that he was weak, which was caused by years of losses.
I don't know if Doctor Dai was trying to scare people, saying that Song Zhenping had injured his bones, and if he didn't take the medicine, he would die young even if he recovered.
These words frightened Song Zhenping so much that his face turned pale. He rubbed his hands and dared not say a word.
When taking Xiao An's pulse, Doctor Dai's eyebrows were twisted into knots, and he looked angry. He knocked on the stone paperweight and said, "What a sin! What a sin, this child... Alas! Do your best!" He didn't say what the cure would be.
Song Liyun's heart was beating fast, Xiao An had suffered such a heavy loss.
Although Xiao An's face gained some flesh after a winter of care and he looked in good spirits, his sternum deformity and rib protrusion had not improved.
Doctor Dai spoke words of sympathy and complaint while writing the prescription in a flamboyant manner.
The brothers' situations are actually similar, they just need to take tonic medicine.
Treatment options are also similar.
The first medicinal supplement: Ginseng, deer antler and deer placenta are not useful, but astragalus, angelica, white atractylodes and rehmannia are indispensable.
The second dietary supplement: Eat more chicken, duck, fish, meat, eggs, vegetables, fruits, white rice and white flour.
The third thing is to drink the secret ointment prepared by the doctor.
Anyway, just take good medicine and eat good food, and don't overwork yourself, so just rest until autumn.
When Song Zhenping heard the patient's condition just now, his face turned pale. But when the pharmacist in the clinic calculated the cost of the medical treatment and the ointments and medicine bags, his face turned green.
The medical expenses for two people in one month is twenty taels of silver!
This is just the normal cost of medicine, which needs to be taken until autumn.
In addition, the family needs a constant supply of rice, flour, fish and meat, and there is no limit to the amount of money to be spent.
Song Liyun remained calm and collected. The doctor's medical fees were a bit high, but he was a retired imperial physician from the capital. His bone-breaking skills might not be superb, but at least he had his own unique way of regulating the body.
In Song Liyun's eyes, this old man was not a doctor, but more like a fortune teller.
By taking Song Zhenping's pulse, he could tell exactly when his leg was broken and what he had experienced afterwards.
Song Liyun was clear about Xiao An's physical condition. She knew that he was experiencing calf pain, hot flashes and night sweats, which were the same as what Doctor Dai had said.
Now the doctor said that I need to take tonic medicine for a few months, so I should take it. I can earn money again after I spend it.
Time waits for no one. If you miss a spring, you will miss it again.
After seeing the doctor, Song Zhenping felt like he was being scratched by a cat when he thought about the money he would have to spend.
Song Liyun, however, walked in front with Xiao An in high spirits.
Xiao An held her second sister's hand tightly, staring at the people passing by without blinking.
He met the most people in Suijin Town, and had never seen the prosperity and bustle of the capital city. Everything was new to him.
"Brother, let's walk around the street and then find a restaurant to eat." Song Liyun pointed to the bustling city ahead.
Soon, Song Zhenping, who was full of worries, was like Xiao An, and he could not see anyone on the street.
It was also his first time to be on a regular street, and he was dazzled by all the shops and hawking.
Song Liyun took Xiao An to a vendor selling candied haws and bought three strings for nine cents.
When she was in Qili County, she also saw people selling malt candy, but she was with Han Ming at the time and had some important things to do, so she didn't get to try it.
At this time, the three brothers and sisters each had a string of candied haws, and they ate while walking, regardless of other people's strange looks.
Xiao An chewed it carefully, caught the fallen candy crust with his palm, and licked it with his tongue.
