Seeing Xiaohua sleeping so well, Erlang was deeply moved. He bowed with both hands and thanked Shu Jiaying repeatedly, saying, "Big girl, I didn't expect your medical skills to be so superb. You actually saved my Xiaohua's life without using any medicine. You are a true great doctor!"
Shu Jiaying quickly interrupted Erleng.
"Uncle Erlang, Xiaohua is not truly out of danger. I'm massaging her abdomen to temporarily relieve her pain and let her rest. If she wakes up, she'll still feel the pain."
"Ah? Then...what about Xiaohua? Big girl, Uncle Erlang trusts you 100% now, so you must find a way to save my Xiaohua. If Xiaohua can escape danger this time, Uncle Erlang...Uncle Erlang kneels down to you..."
"Oh...don't!"
Stopping Erlang, who was about to kneel down, Shu Jiaying was silent for a moment before saying, "Uncle Erlang, Xiaohua's condition is quite critical. I don't think she can wait for me to go up the mountain to collect herbs for her. To be on the safe side, you should quickly go to the pharmacy in town to get some medicine. I'll write you a prescription right away."
"Thank you, big girl!"
After getting the prescription, Erlang hurried to the pharmacy in town.
Shu Jiaying took the big net of fish given to her by Erlang and returned to the thatched hut in the back mountain. However, when she opened the door of the hut, the injured man was no longer there.
"Where did that man go? Didn't we tell him not to run around?"
Muttering to herself, Shu Jiaying walked outside and looked around but still couldn't find any trace of the man. She had no choice but to put all the fish she had brought back into a basin and marinate them with salt.
Seeing that there was still some time, she carried her backpack and went for a walk in the back mountain.
However, Shu Jiaying did not dare to go too deep, because the deeper she went, the greater the chance of encountering wild animals.
Shu Jiaying still had some self-knowledge. She didn't want to use her petite body to confront those powerful beasts. And in the area where she was walking, she found that there were a lot of "saxifrages" around.
The appearance of saxifrage looks a bit like lotus leaves, and it has the effects of dispelling wind and heat, cooling blood and detoxifying. It has a very strong effect on people suffering from otitis media.
I dug up some saxifrage and some wild sesame not far away, but these two medicinal herbs are relatively common in pharmacies.
Shu Jiaying was worried that if she only had these two herbs to deal with the shopkeeper, she would most likely be kicked out, so she had to find a few herbs that she could show off.
However, since ancient times, famous medicines have come from deep mountains. If she goes deeper into the mountains, it means that her danger will be greater.
Looking at the sun that had already moved to one side, Shu Jiaying panicked. She thought that she was not in a hurry to dig herbs anyway. She came here today just to explore the way. Just as she was about to leave, she suddenly heard a "hissing" sound coming from the grass.
It's a snake!
With this realization, Shu Jiaying became more determined to leave. However, after taking a few steps, she heard a sound of rapid breathing.
“Help…Help…”
Someone is calling for help!
Hearing this sound, Shu Jiaying realized that someone was bitten by a snake. She picked up the pickaxe for digging herbs and hurried into the grass.
Sure enough, she found a thin boy in the grass, his whole body entangled by a big snake as thick as his wrist.
Seeing that the boy's face had turned purple, Shu Jiaying knew that he must have been trapped by the snake for a long time.
Observing that the snake was beginning to lose its spirit, Shu Jiaying seized the opportunity and grabbed the snake's vital point. Just when the snake was unable to move, the boy was finally freed.
