Chapter 200 Dalang, it’s time to take medicine (10)
The days passed slowly, and after more than a month, Wei Dalang's legs had almost healed. He could walk without crutches and did not become lame. This surprised those who thought he was disabled. After all, when he was sent back, it was said that both of his legs were broken, and they had all seen his bloody appearance.
But just one month later, his leg injury healed and he could even walk again. Isn't this surprising?
When Wei Qi walked to the foot of the mountain to pick up Huo Shichu, the villagers were so shocked that their jaws almost dropped.
"If I'm not mistaken, that's Wei Dalang, right? Is his leg healed? Can he walk?!" An old lady looked at Wei Dalang in surprise and asked her companion next to her.
"You're not mistaken, that is indeed Wei Dalang. I didn't expect that he could actually get better. Could it be that God has opened his eyes and seen how miserable he was and showed mercy to him and let him get better?" the companion murmured.
"God has eyes! Do you think that if old man Wei knew that Wei Dalang's leg had healed, would he regret separating from him?" the old lady said with a wink.
"He must be regretting it! Wei Dalang is tall and strong, at least he is a strong laborer, diligent and capable, but it's a pity that old man Wei sent people away." The companion also said gloatingly, "He did such a ruthless thing at the beginning, Wei Dalang will definitely not go back."
"What nonsense! Wei Dalang has nothing to do with Old Man Wei now, right? Wasn't he adopted out? And the relationship is severed. It's useless for Old Man Wei to regret it!" said the old lady with a pout.
Wei Qi didn't know what others were saying. He took the basket from Huo Shichu and said, "Let me help you get this."
Huo Shichu wiped the sweat off his face and did not refuse. He said, "Then you can take it. If your legs are sore, give it to me. Don't hurt your legs that you have finally recovered from."
"No, my leg is really healed, it's not a problem." Wei Qi smiled and said.
The basket in his hand was not light, as it was filled with wild vegetables, fruits and the like, but he was sharp-eyed and saw some gray chicken feathers sticking out from the vegetables.
It turned out there was a pheasant. Wei Qi raised his eyebrows. He and Huo Shichu have been living together for more than a month and he knows that she is not as weak as she looks. On the contrary, she is very ferocious. She can catch some wild animals from time to time by herself, from small ones like fish and shrimps in the river to large ones like rabbits and pheasants in the mountains. Therefore, their food during this period is not bad.
Just to avoid attracting attention, we have to hide it from others.
Wei Dalang suddenly felt a little guilty. He had been relying on Huo Shichu for support this month, but now that he was better, it was time for him, a grown man, to support his family.
"Don't go up the mountain next time. It will be too dangerous if you encounter wild boars or wolves. I will earn money to support the family." Wei Qi said.
"Okay, then I'll rely on you for support." Huo Shichu agreed immediately. How could she not agree if someone offered to be the breadwinner? It was his turn!
"Da Lang, is your leg really healed? This is truly a miracle, how did you do it?" An aunt named Wang stopped the couple and asked Wei Qi, looking up and down at his long legs, as if she was trying to find something out.
Wei Qi nodded: "Aunt Wang, my leg is healed. The doctor said that my recovery ability is stronger than that of ordinary people, and I recover faster from injuries."
"Is that all?" Aunt Wang was disappointed, but she still pressed on, "Which doctor did you hire? What medicine did you use? Do you remember my son Wang Tieniu? When he was eight years old, he broke a leg and became lame after it healed. I want to see the doctor you hired. Maybe he can be cured..."
Wei Qi thought about who Wang Tieniu was, and he was a little amused and said, "Aunt Wang, Tieniu's leg was injured when he was eight years old, but he is almost twenty now, right? This injury happened too long ago, and the bone has healed long ago. How can it be healed again?"
"Why can't it be cured? Is his injury as serious as yours? Maybe it can really be cured if you give it a try?" Aunt Wang said anxiously, "Just tell me who the doctor you hired is!"
Wei Qi knew that she loved her son so much that she would not give up unless she tried it herself, so he had to tell her: "I have invited Doctor Liu from the town. He specializes in treating injuries caused by broken bones, and my leg injury is also his specialty. If you want to find him, just go to Huichuntang in the town."
"Doctor Liu from Huichuntang...Okay, I'll remember it. If Tie Niu really cures his leg, I will definitely remember your kindness..." Aunt Wang said and left impatiently.
Wei Qi knew that she would most likely be disappointed, but people would not give up until they tried. The reason why his legs were healed was entirely because he used his supernatural powers to repair the wounds.
He is not the original Wei Dalang, but Wei Qi from some apocalyptic time and space. He was only twenty years old when the apocalypse came. He had just taken over his family's company and was ready to do something big. But before he could realize his ambitions, the world suddenly changed.
Zombies, mutated plants, mutated animals, people with special powers... these are what he has to face every day in the world he lives in. With the dual special powers of lightning and healing, he formed a team and struggled to survive in the apocalypse. He even built a survival base to shelter ordinary people.
But he eventually died in the fight with the Zombie King. In order to prevent the base from being breached by zombies, he died together with the Zombie King.
Somehow his soul traveled through time and space and turned into Wei Dalang, whose legs were severely injured and who was abandoned by his family when he returned home. Wei Dalang was probably severely traumatized both physically and mentally, and the blow was too great. He died after a mental breakdown. Only then was Wei Qi able to occupy his body and become him.
Wei Qi, the cruel and ruthless man from the end of the world, is not the honest and filial Wei Dalang. When Old Wei's family wanted to kick him out of the house, he simply went with the flow and asked the clan elders and the village chief to testify, and had himself adopted out, completely cutting off ties with the Wei family.
He didn't want to continue to be entangled with these vampire-like family members, and he was also afraid that he would be accidentally exposed one day, so he wanted to live alone and be free.
But he didn't expect that he would get a "young wife", and this young wife seemed to have some secrets, but it didn't matter, no matter how big her secret was, could it be bigger than his?
Wei Qi thought that he was doing very well in the dark and desperate end times, so how could he be schemed against by a little woman in this backward and ignorant ancient times?
With his current status, he had no money, no power, and was completely penniless. What could he be cheated of? To put it bluntly, he had nothing to be cheated of, so he didn't care about Huo Shichu's concealment.
What's more, the food she cooked was delicious. Wei Qi felt that their relationship could last longer. He had eaten so many dark dishes in the apocalypse, and now that he could eat delicious food, he really didn't want to miss it again - he couldn't cook.
