Chen Qingqing led her group straight to Wolf Valley...
The mountains and forests were deep and secluded, shrouded in mist, exuding an aura of danger.
There really are wolves in Wolf Valley, and she doesn't plan to go any further in. After all, the Five Poisons were just something she made up.
Once the last few lice are removed from Master Fan's belly button, everything will be fine; there's no need to actually go in and risk it.
If we encounter wolves, we won't be as lucky as last time.
But since we're here, it's still necessary to make a show of it.
Shi Taishou and his two servants followed behind her timidly, looking around in fear and unease.
Seeing their comical appearance, Chen Qingqing decided to scare them.
Suddenly, the bushes rustled, and she smiled wickedly, quickly grabbing a black and white silver-ringed snake.
The snake twisted its body, flicked its scarlet tongue, and hissed.
Chen Qingqing remained calm, took out a knife, cut open the snake's belly, removed the gall bladder and internal organs, put them into a pre-prepared container, and then threw the snake aside. The snake was still wriggling.
The group was completely stunned by Chen Qingqing's actions and retreated repeatedly, not daring to step forward.
Chen Qingqing smiled faintly, "Don't be afraid. Although there are many snakes in Wild Wolf Valley, they won't attack people unless you step on them. But if you are bitten by one, you will definitely die."
Shi Taishou turned pale with fright. "Miss Chen, how many snakes do we need to catch to cure the master's illness?"
"There are about ten. Don't just stand around, hurry up and join us in looking for them."
Also, look for those big red spiders on the tree; you'll need ten of them.
I've seen highly venomous bees and scorpions deep inside Wolf Valley; you need ten of each.
"Let's hurry and try to gather all these things before sunset, otherwise, once it gets dark, packs of wolves will come out, and we'll be their prey."
Shi Taishou trembled all over and could not move his feet. The venomous snakes alone were terrifying enough, but if you added spiders, bees, and scorpions, you would die if you were bitten.
No, he hasn't lived enough yet. He absolutely can't take that risk. He should go back and cuddle with his wife, have a few drinks, and feel comfortable.
With that thought in mind, he decided to go down the mountain. He turned around and whispered something to the two servants, who nodded in agreement.
Shi Taishou smiled broadly and said, "Miss Chen, we naturally trust you to treat my master's illness, but this mountain forest is too big, and none of us know any poisonous insects. We would be a burden to follow you. Why don't we go back first and you go in and catch them yourself!"
Seeing that she had achieved her goal, Chen Qingqing still pretended to be in a difficult position. "How can that be? Master Fan instructed you to come with me to make medicine. If you go back like this, how will you explain it to Master Fan?"
Besides, Wolf Valley is fraught with danger. If something were to happen to me, no one would even know.
The two servants grinned and began to speak.
“Miss Chen is brave and resourceful. We believe you will be safe. Staying here will only cause you trouble.”
"Yes, Master Fan, don't worry. We will definitely not show our faces when we get back. We will report back after breakfast tomorrow morning. We will tell you that all the poisons have been found and that we watched you make the medicine according to the prescription without any mistakes."
"Alright then, since you're so scared, go back first!"
"Alright, thank you, Miss Chen. See you tomorrow morning."
As if granted a pardon, Shi Taishou led his two servants down the mountain along the same route as if fleeing.
Watching their departing figures, Chen Qingqing couldn't help but laugh out loud.
She had no intention of going into the mountains to catch any poisonous creatures; she just wanted to scare these cowardly followers so she could escape.
She put all the ginseng, cordyceps, and other medicinal materials from her backpack into her spatial storage. These were all wild-grown, and their medicinal effects were more than a hundred times better than those artificially cultivated in her spatial storage.
With so many good things, Chen Qingqing was in a good mood and found it much easier to walk.
It took her more than an hour to walk to her doorstep.
Lin, who was preparing to make dumplings with pork cracklings and mustard greens, saw this and hurriedly came out to greet her, "Qing'er, you're back?"
Chen Qingqing nodded, "Mother, I'm back."
"The Fan family didn't send a carriage to take you back, so you had to walk?"
Afraid that she would worry if she knew she went to Wolf Valley, Chen Qingqing smiled and lied, "I delivered them, and I sent them back when they got to the village entrance."
"Oh, is that so? Sit down and rest." Madam Lin said, pouring a bowl of water and handing it to her. She smiled and said, "I went to the mountains to dig up some shepherd's purse today. Tonight we'll have dumplings with pork cracklings and mustard greens filling."
"good."
After dinner, Chen Qingqing carefully examined the man she had rescued and found that all his bodily functions had recovered very well. Only then did she feel at ease and fall into a deep sleep.
Early the next morning,
The Fan residence is in complete chaos.
Fan Hun lay on the bed kicking and thrashing about, screaming at the top of his lungs, "Father, Mother, your son is dying! I don't want to die! Please save me!"
Madam Fan was frantic and at a loss. "Hun'er, what strange illness have you contracted? How did you become like this?"
"Yes, what's going on? My illness was just getting better, and now my son is seriously ill. What kind of misfortune has our Fan family committed?" Fan Tong was also restless, pacing anxiously around the room.
Fan Hun frowned, his mouth agape, and he was so frightened that he was about to cry. "Father, Mother, hurry and go fetch Miss Chen. If we delay any longer, I'm going to die."
Madam Fan was so anxious that her face turned pale. "Hun'er, don't worry. I've already sent someone to fetch a doctor. Just hold on a little longer, the doctor will be here soon."
