Chapter 114: Don't Get Excited!

amily's several mischievous boys didn't know what their sister was struggling with at all. They had been looking forward to this day for so long, their eyes turned red from anticipation.Early in the m...Tao Hongying was afraid her daughter would get infected, so she picked up her daughter and whispered to her.

"How did you run over here Go back quickly, be careful, anything gets heated up, it's time to drink the bitter medicine."

Jia Yin glanced at Zhang Shenyi. The old man's face was flushed, and his forehead was so hot it could fry an egg.

Although this old man is usually very arrogant and doesn't associate much with the villagers.

But this whole journey fleeing, the old man's done quite a bit.

Especially after the previous wolf attack, the old man single-handedly saved everyone.

Preparing and brewing medicine, I'm exhausted to the point of collapse. No one even says a word.

A physician's compassionate heart is fully embodied in this elder.

Now that the old man is so sick, both out of obligation and compassion, she should lend a hand and try to save him.

But this old man is “up to no good,” he’s been thinking about catching her in a lie!

To know that Young Master Ye has recovered, she left no handle or evidence. Even if Young Master Ye said it, I'm afraid no one would believe it.

But this old man just insisted that something was fishy about the Li family...

Tao Hongying was just about to take her daughter out when Li Laotai arrived.

Jia Yin immediately burrowed into Grandma's arms, softly and sweetly saying, "Grandma, Grandpa has a fever."

Li Laotai originally had Zhang Shenyi in mind, so she instructed her daughter-in-law.

"Why don't you take a nap I need to keep an eye on Funi, anyway. I'll just sit here for a bit."

Tao Hongying was indeed very tired. During the day, she collected mountain goods, and at night, she took care of the sick. Her eyes were bloodshot from exhaustion.

At this time, she didn't insist anymore and nodded.

"Mother, let's send Fu Niu back in a while so she doesn't catch a fever too."

"Got it."

Li Laotai agreed, seeing that only she and her granddaughter were in the shack, so she whispered to her granddaughter.

"Look, Fu Niu, Zhang the Divine Physician is burning up so pitifully. Young Master Ye entrusted him to us, and we can't just ignore him in this state. That white little thing, the fever reducer, could you give him a piece"

Jia Yin pouted, glanced at Old Zhang, and finally relented.

Hmph, for Young Master Ye's sake and all that silver...

She reluctantly extended her small hand, a tiny white pill resting in her palm.

Li Laotai was so happy she couldn't contain herself, she gave her granddaughter a big kiss on the cheek, then quickly fed it to the old man.

Although Zhang Shenyi was seriously ill, he still remembered to swallow and had a strong will to survive...

He was in a dream, like a fish in a fire, almost cooked.

He was furious and cursed, wanting to escape but unable to.

Finally, a strange force seemed to gradually extinguish the flames, giving him a chance to breathe.

Then, cool water moistened his body, making him feel even better.

He let out a slight sigh of relief, but suddenly his mind sparked with an idea. He instinctively reached out and grabbed it tightly. "Finally got you!"

The village head was helping Zhang Shenyi drink water when he was suddenly grabbed by the wrist. The bowl of water splashed onto the bedding, startling him.

"Doctor Zhang, you're awake! That's wonderful, you had a fever all night. If you hadn't woken up, everyone would have been frantic."

Zhang Shenyi's eyes still held a hint of red, and he looked around in confusion.

This is a newly built den. He lies on the bedding, with a small fire burning at the entrance, providing both warmth and light.

Jia Ren was tending to the fire, adding more wood. He held a twig in his left hand and slowly practiced writing on the ground.

At this moment, he also looked over, his face full of concern.

"Grandpa Zhang, are you hungry Would you like a bowl of porridge to tide you over"

Dr. Zhang blinked twice, released the village head's hand, and asked, "What medicine did you just give me"

The village head and Jiaren looked at each other, both shaking their heads. "No, we only gave you two bowls of water."

"What kind of water"

"That's the water we boiled last time at the campsite. There's no water source here, so we can only drink the stored water."

"Are you sure you didn't give me medicine"

Zhang Shenyi kept asking questions, looking at the village head and Jiaren who kept shaking their heads. They didn't seem to be lying. He hesitated.

Could it be that I'm truly burnt out But there's something off about it.

"Doctor Zhang, you can sleep a little longer now. You've already cooled down. Don't catch another cold."

The village head helped him lie down, taking his ramblings as fevered nonsense.

Zhang Shenyi was still a little weak, and after lying down for a while, he fell asleep again.

Soon, Jiahuan and Li Lao San came over to take over the shift, so Jaren and the Village Chief went back to rest.

Thus, people took turns guarding him. When dawn broke, Zhang Shenyi regained consciousness and recovered a few more points of strength.

Tao Hongying was making breakfast, but her daughter rubbed her eyes and insisted on following along.

She couldn't, so she tied her daughter to her back.

Jia Yin shrank her neck from the wind. Taking advantage of her mother turning away, she quickly filled the bag for making thin noodles at home with half a bag more.

There was only a thin layer left, she didn't add anything else, afraid that after eating one or two more meals, it would be completely gone.

Tao Hongying took the basin, just about to lift and check the bag when she found it was half full. She was so startled her heart leaped into her throat.

By the time she could react, she turned her head to look at her daughter, who was already rubbing her eyes and yawning again.

She hurriedly sent her daughter back to the chicken coop and whispered a few words in her mother-in-law's ear.

Li Laotai nodded, holding her granddaughter and gently rocking her. Finally, she instructed her daughter-in-law, “Don't be alarmed. We’ve seen this before at home.”

Tao Hongying couldn't help but smile with delight. Was it the same as being at home Finding extra food at home was an improvement, here it was a lifeline.

She turned and left, immediately setting a small pot to boil on her own.

The elder woman cooked a pot of noodles in broth for the sick patients, and a smaller pot steamed an egg custard for her daughter. The other women looked on but didn't say anything.

First, Jia Yin is the youngest in the whole team. Second, the eggs were picked up by Mrs. Li, and it's not excessive to cook a separate meal for her granddaughter.

When breakfast was ready, everyone took their own portion and ate it greedily.

Dr. Zhang was wrapped up warmly, sipping his congee while eyeing each member of the Li family one by one. In the end, he gave up.

Don't waste your time looking for some hidden master. Take care of yourself first.

If this old man were to die here in the mountains, it would be a shame to his reputation as a great healer.

People were not fragile at all. After taking the medicine and sleeping through the night, they woke up refreshed, ate a good meal, and felt much better. They could continue on their journey.

The group reached midday, and there was movement in the nearby forest. Everyone instinctively tightened their grip on the axes in their hands, preparing for a large beast.

To everyone's surprise, it was Jia Yi who emerged. Seeing the crowd, he excitedly shouted with joy.

"Village Head Grandpa, Zhao Grandpa, we've found our residence! It's right ahead. The Master asked me and Liu Yang to come greet you."

As if on cue, Liu Yang emerged from the forest, huffing and puffing.

He was already overweight, and this escape had barely made him lose any weight.

Everyone was overjoyed and hurried to follow the two boys.

After another half hour's walk, the group emerged from the forest and arrived at a slightly wider valley.

It's not quite accurate to call it a mountain valley.

Here is actually a gravel beach, sandwiched between two cliffs.

On one side of the cliff, dozens of feet in the air, a waterfall cascaded down, crashing into a sizable pool at the base of the precipice.

The pool rippled with water flowing out, becoming a small stream.

Across the river, about twenty paces away, is another cliff.

A precipice two zhang high from the ground, at some point in time had been carved with six or seven caves of varying sizes by unknown hands.

For many years, the mountain wind blew, and some mugwort and vines grew at the entrance of the cave, looking rather desolate.

Liu, the head of the鏢 (protective caravan) guards, stood inside one of the rooms, poked his head out, and grinned at the crowd, waving his hands. residence, add jujubes and sesame seeds.While those used for gifting are made with new flavors, including salted egg yolk, meat floss, jam, and green bean paste.Tao Hongying naturally had no objectio...
