Chapter 173: Going to Collect Herbs
Manzhi, who had a tumor on his neck, recovered well after the surgery.
After a careful examination, Jian Mo said to Xingyi and the others, "Just two more days of recovery, and once the wound has healed, Manzhi will be able to switch freely between human and beast form."
Xingyi asked, "Now you're worried that the thread on your neck will break, right?"
Jian Mo: "Yes, if we change now, the wound will split open, and it will easily cause heavy bleeding."
Manzhi, who was lying on the ground waiting for them to see his wound, said quickly, "I will definitely not do anything rash. I will wait until you, Witch Doctor Jian Mo, say I can change into human form."
Jian Mo smiled and patted him, "You're in good health. In my experience, you should be able to recover in three or four days. It won't be too long."
Manzhi said quickly, "That's great."
Manzhi recovered very well, and everyone had confidence in Jian Mo's medical skills.
Jian Mo hurried to perform surgery on several other patients, and in the end everyone recovered well, at least much better than before they got sick.
Jian Mo's reputation spread, and patients from more than a dozen nearby tribes rushed to see him.
Xingyi was here, and there were not many patients who were not cured, but their conditions were relatively complicated.
Some Jian Mo couldn't cure, so Xingyi and Jian Mo teamed up to see them. When they encountered a condition that the two of them couldn't solve together, they had to put it on hold temporarily.
However, with the efforts of the two, another wave of patients in the vicinity were cleared, and there were very few patients left.
What surprised everyone the most was that Jian Mo could actually treat teeth.
Toothache is very uncomfortable, and many people have been suffering from toothache for years. Now that Jian Mo can treat teeth, many people are very surprised.
Patients who were suffering from toothaches, no matter how far away they were, would come to Jian Mo for treatment as long as they heard about his skills.
Because of the great advantage of being able to treat teeth, Jian Mo not only brought all the supplies he brought, but also received many new supplies, from metal blocks to cloth to food.
Jian Mo privately said to Wu Jiong: "Fortunately, we brought a lot of anesthetics and glue, otherwise we might have to travel thousands of miles back to the tribe."
Wu Jiong: "It's okay to rush back. I'll ride Ying Ao back and report the news."
Jian Mo looked at him: "But I don't want to be separated from you."
Wu Jiong didn't say anything, just hugged Jian Mo and kissed his beast ears.
Jian Mo was undergoing secondary development, Xing Yi also knew it, and prescribed a tonic for him.
Regarding his symptoms, Xingyi said, "Your symptoms are rather peculiar. Actually, there is no special medicine. In other words, don't worry. This is not a disease, but just your personal characteristics. If you eat more and eat better, your development will catch up slowly."
Jian Mo nodded, "I know. I'm not in a hurry."
Xingyi and Xudi patted him on the shoulder. They liked this fellow traveler who came from afar.
Jian Mo and his companions stayed in the Cuxing Tribe temporarily.
The people of the Cuxing Tribe welcomed them very much. The chief of the Cuxing Tribe even specially replaced the vacant house for them and asked them to move into the big house.
The prognosis of the patients treated by Jian Mo was very good. Fenhui also got better day by day under Xingyi's treatment and became a little fatter.
Jian Mo and Xingyi exchanged medical content, and Jian Mo would take a lot of notes every day.
The papers and brushes he brought also surprised Xingyi, and Xingyi even went to him to exchange for a stack of papers and brushes.
Jian Mo originally wanted to give them as gifts, but Xingyi refused, so Jian Mo half-exchanged and half-gave, and gave Xingyi a lot of papers and brushes.
That day, Xingjiu came to Jian Mo and said, "The autumn wind is blowing, we are going to the seaside to find a kind of seaweed that can treat scabies, do you want to go with us?"
Jian Mo was interested: "Of course!"
Xingjiu: "Then I will call the orcs in our tribe. It's a bit troublesome to find this kind of medicine. We have to look for it on fish."
Jian Mo was a little surprised: "Why look for it on fish?"
Xingjiu smiled mysteriously: "You will know when you get there."
Xingjiu quickly asked the orcs to come over.
The orcs, whose skin was tanned by the sun, were happy to go out with them. When they saw Jian Mo and the others, they smiled, revealing their big white teeth: "Doctor Jian Mo, Chief Wu Jiong."
Jian Mo quickly said: "Hello."
After Xing Jiu introduced them to each other, he said: "Then let's hurry up and go out."
The orcs changed back to their beast form, put on their backpacks and the sub-beasts, and ran to the beach.
The Chuxing tribe is not far from the beach, but they have to climb over the mountains to reach the beach.
They ran for a while and arrived.
The weather is not cold now, but the sea water is already quite cold.
Jian Mo touched the sea water with his feet and shuddered directly.
Xingjiu then remembered and asked, "Can you swim?"
Jian Mo: "Yes! Our whole family can swim, including Jiujiu and Yingao, and they are good swimmers."
Xingjiu laughed, "It's a pity that they didn't come today, otherwise I would have to see it."
Jian Mo: "No problem, tomorrow."
Xingjiu pointed to the sea and introduced them, "We are going to the bay in front, call the fish over, and then collect seaweed from them."
Jian Mo had no objection, "Okay, we will follow you."
After Xingjiu finished the introduction, he asked the beastmen to continue running.
After running for a long time, they came to a rocky island reef.
There is a bay here, and the sea water poured in. It can be seen that the sea water in the bay is also quite deep.
At Xingjiu's signal, an orc took a bone instrument, stood on a high rock, and played the instrument.
The sound of the instrument was very rich, distant and ethereal, a bit like the cry of a whale.
It was the first time that Jian Mo saw such an instrument and heard such a sound. He couldn't help but look up at the instrument a few more times.
The sound of the instrument came from far away, and they stood on the reef and waited patiently.
While the orc played, they listened to the movement coming from the sea.
After an unknown amount of time, a similar sound finally responded to them.
Jian Mo saw such a scene for the first time, and asked excitedly: "Is this the cry of fish?"
Xingjiu smiled and said: "Yes, a big fish."
The beastman was still playing the instrument, and a group of big fish slowly swam towards this side in the sound of the instrument, all the way to the bay.
The big fish swam slowly in the bay, looking very leisurely.
Xingjiu looked at the big fish in the bay and said: "We are going to jump in and collect seaweed from the big fish. You haven't collected it before, so you can wait for us on the shore."
Jian Mo and Wu Jiong didn't show off: "Okay, let's take a look first."
Xingjiu led people to jump into the sea and swam to the big fish.
The big fish seemed very friendly, not hiding or avoiding, and just let them get close.
They swam to the big fish, and used a scraper-like tool to start collecting seaweed attached to the big fish. If there were other debris on the big fish, they would also help scrape it off.
Jian Mo watched and felt that Xingjiu and the others were especially like the characters doing fish therapy.
The only difference is that in fish therapy, the fish eats the debris on the human body, and this time they are the ones who get rid of the debris on the fish.
The role reversal looks a bit funny and cute.
Jian Mo watched on the shore and couldn't help but say to Wu Jiong: "It looks quite fun, why don't we go down too?"
Wu Jiong grabbed Jian Mo's arm: "Wait a moment, when they come up we'll ask if there is anything we need to pay attention to."
Maybe because the orcs and sub-orcs are in very good physical condition, their ability to hold their breath is far beyond that of ordinary people.
They went down for a full six or seven minutes before coming up to breathe.
Jian Mo asked them loudly on the reef: "How do you feel?"
Xing Jiu wiped the water off his face and smiled: "Very good, these are what we are used to doing."
Jian Mo: "We want to come down too, can we?"
Xing Jiu: "Go ahead, move your arms and legs before coming down. The water here is calmer, and there will be no problem with us watching."
Jian Mo smiled and said: "Then let's come!"
Everyone did not take off their clothes, and they did not take off their clothes either. They directly adjusted the length of the backpack and then jumped into the water from a more convenient place.
The sea water is indeed different from the water in other places, and the buoyancy is different.
But it feels okay, not as cold as Jian Mo imagined.
Jian Mo went into the water in the Snow Foot Tribe before, and that was melted ice and snow water, which was much colder than this water.
Jian Mo swam hard towards Xing Jiu and the others.
Wu Jiong followed behind, not falling behind at all.
When they swam closer, Jian Mo looked at the big fish swimming back and forth under the water, and couldn't help but sigh: "These big fish look like Heqin fish."
Xing Jiu: "Have you seen Heqin
before?" Jian Mo: "Yes, we saw it in a tribe called 'Shangmeng Tribe' when we went to look for Lajiao. At that time, Heqin from their tribe had a difficult delivery, and I helped to deliver the baby." Xing Jiu:
"How come you can do everything?"
Jian Mo smiled: "You will naturally learn it after seeing it more. The main reason is that the psychological pressure of delivering a Heqin baby is not that great. I can also treat many animals, and treat the stress of animals. The pressure of treating orcs and sub-orcs is much less than that of treating orcs and sub-orcs, and some more risky treatment methods can be used directly. "
Xingjiu nodded in agreement: "When treating orcs and sub-orcs, sometimes for the sake of safety, we dare not use some treatment methods."
Xingjiu talked to Jian Mo and the others patiently, and after a while, seeing that they were quite adapted to the environment in the water, he signaled them to go under the water: "Just approach the fish directly and scrape the seaweed off the fish. It doesn't matter if you scrape it wrong, we will pick it again when we get to the shore."
Jian Mo and Wu Jiong both nodded.
Xingjiu smiled: "Then you guys come with me, we'll try it first."
It's not easy for an inexperienced person to sink directly from the water surface to underwater. Fortunately, although Jian Mo and Wu Jiong had never swam in the sea, they had swam in large rivers and lakes and successfully sank into the sea.
Xingjiu swam in front, turning his head from time to time to observe them. Seeing that they adapted well, he took them to a big fish with a relatively gentle personality.
The big fish slowly turned its head and looked at them, with no intention of attacking.
Xingjiu demonstrated underwater how to use a scraper to scrape off the debris on the big fish. They learned it twice and quickly learned it, especially Wu Jiong, who scraped quickly and well.
They had to go up to breathe after scraping for a while, which was actually quite tiring.
But this experience was so special that it was fun even though it was tiring.
As they were scraping, Jian Mo saw that the big fish seemed to be happy about being scraped. It suddenly turned over, facing them with its belly, and let out a long cry as if it was acting coquettish.
Not to mention, the big fish's belly is also very good to rub.
Jian Mo contentedly stretched out his hand to rub the big fish's belly. The big fish was also very happy, twisting under their hands, as if interacting with them.
Because the temperature underwater is relatively low, even if they don't feel cold for the time being, they can't stay in the water for too long, and still have to go up to rest.
When they returned to the shore, everyone took out food to eat in the sun and picked out the seaweed they had just scraped.
Xingjiu pulled out the seaweed inside to show Jian Mo and Wu Jiong, telling them what kind of seaweed they were and what kind of seaweed could be used as medicine.
Jian Mo quickly took a pen and a notebook to write it down carefully.
After writing, Jian Mo said: "I treated a beastman. He had ringworms on his body. It was quite serious. I treated him for a long time. Until now, the hair on the ringworm is still sparse."
Jian Mo described what the ringworm on Dan Guan looked like: "The skin on the ringworm is very smooth, especially the scalp. If I hadn't found that he also had ringworms on his body, I would have thought he had hair loss."
Xing Jiu thought for a while and said: "This should be oil ringworm. Seaweed can't cure it well. It needs a black knife. It can only be cured by black blade grass and white soil. When you go back, I will pack some black blade grass and white soil for you."
Jian Mo: "That's great. A good boy is now bald. It's really miserable."
Xing Jiu smiled: "It's just baldness, but it's okay. Oil ringworm doesn't hurt or itch. There is a kind of tumor ringworm, which is painful, itchy and bald. It's really miserable."
Jian Mo: "Then you have to teach me how to treat tumor ringworm."
