"Big news. Divine Doctor Wen has come to our clan and will give us a free clinic. He's in the mountain col over there."
Those who heard the news were overjoyed at first, and then hesitated, "Uncle Niu, which mountain col is it? Is it Luoyan Bend?"
"Hey, Qingzhu Medicine God is there. How can any ghost dare to come? Let me tell you, this is a rare opportunity. Don't regret it if you miss it."
"Indeed, Divine Doctor Wen is the reincarnation of a god. Those ghosts and monsters in Luoyanwan are very afraid of her, and they might just run away."
"I also think that if I want to go there anyway, even if I can't be cured by the miracle doctor, it's still worthwhile to pay my respects to the miracle doctor's appearance."
The news spread quickly, and in less than half a day, there was a long queue at Luoyanwan, where no one was seen in the past.
"This is Luoyan Bend. It doesn't look scary."
"What do you know? Of course you can't see anything during the day. It's very scary at night. There are ghost heads floating everywhere. I heard that many girls and boys were captured by these ghosts."
"Then will we get anything dirty now?"
Shi Yan passed by carrying a large pot and smiled when he heard this: "Don't be afraid, those ghosts have been taken care of by Divine Doctor Wen. No, there are still ghost heads there."
He raised his chin to the right and forward, and several people followed his gaze. At first they only saw a mass of blackness, but upon closer inspection they discovered a white ghost face mask on the black cloth.
Everyone was stunned at first, and then someone's face changed drastically. The team didn't even care about queuing, and rushed over there.
"Fake, it's all fake. Then was my sister kidnapped by the above?!" The young man's hair was dry and his hands were rough. He was holding a ghost mask with his remaining arm, his face full of shock.
No one answered him. When the Lixi tribe saw this mask, no matter how stupid they were, they understood that someone was playing tricks on them, but they had been kept in the mask.
The young man stood there alone, his thin figure seemed to be blown away by the wind at any time. Shi Yan lowered his eyes and thought for a while, then walked towards him.
"Since you are here to see Dr. Wen for medical treatment, please do something for us and I will give you wages."
When the others heard this, they no longer thought about the fake ghosts, and ran towards Shi Yan, asking all kinds of questions.
"Young man, do you have any other jobs? Even though I'm old, I can do anything."
After the old woman finished speaking, she smiled at Shi Yan, revealing her almost lost teeth.
A skinny old man next to him quickly followed up: "Don't listen to the old woman's nonsense. She is not as strong as me. I was a blacksmith when I was young, so I have a lot of strength."
Uncle Niu rushed over and pulled these old men and women away, smiling sheepishly: "Our place is haunted..."
When he said this, his voice suddenly choked up. The ghost heads were all there. Where could the real ghosts come from?
Uncle Niu closed his eyes and took a deep breath, and continued: "Since those thieves came, it has been difficult for anyone in our clan to reach adulthood. In addition, we have no port here, so sea goods cannot be sold. Fortunately, the clan leader led us Fight taxes, otherwise it will be even more difficult.”
Shi Yan smiled and looked unconcerned. He did not directly tell them the inside story, and found a job to arrange for the people who came over.
These are all relatively healthy people, and the others are still lining up honestly and do not flock in just because they have money.
Wen Yunxi took everything in her eyes, but continued to provide free clinics silently. She brought along the medical equipment she had received from Xuan Lin. Even if she didn't have any herbal medicine at hand, she could use acupuncture to treat many diseases.
"Take this medicine back and boil two bowls of water into one bowl. When the medicine is gone, come here and pick it yourself." Ami squatted next to Wen Yunxi and handed a handful of fresh herbs to her before she finished speaking. The skinny old woman in front of me.
The old woman took it gratefully and was about to leave when Wen Yunxi stopped her again, "The meal is almost ready. Let's eat before leaving."
As soon as Wen Yunxi finished speaking, a gust of wind happened to blow the aroma of rice from the big pot in front of him, making the people in line swallow their saliva.
They haven't smelled the fragrance of this kind of rice for a long time. Ever since Luoyanwan started to be haunted, most of the young clan leaders were kidnapped. Only those under 14 years old, over 50 years old or with disabilities were spared. There were only a few children left. The old man and the old woman continue to make a living by fishing. They cannot sell their fish, so they eat fish and rice every day without even thinking about it.
Although Shi Yan hired a group of old men and women, he only asked them to wash the vegetables and watch the fire. He still did the cooking and cooking work himself. The food would have to be eaten for several days and could not be wasted.
The big pot of dishes came out one after another. Wen Yunxi simply asked the doctors to prepare the food first, then them, and finally those who were employed.
The meal was very sumptuous, including rice with white flowers, scrambled eggs, stewed meat, and even braised chicken legs and vegetarian stir-fried vegetables. The Lixi people who had been short of food and clothing all year round wanted to swallow it all with their tongues.
"Grandma, the rice is so delicious. I don't want to eat fish anymore."
"Hey little shrimp, rice was given to us by Divine Doctor Wen. It will be gone in the future. We still have to eat fish."
"Grandpa, what is this? It smells so good."
"These are scrambled eggs. You haven't eaten them since you were born. I used to trade big fish with my friends from the Yanye tribe for a big bag. By the way, this is a chicken leg, the egg it lays."
In this lively atmosphere, someone seemed out of place. Wen Yunxi walked up to Lager, who was in a depressed mood, and saw that he was holding a bowl but not using his chopsticks. He didn't say much, and just silently picked up the rice next to him.
Upon seeing this, Ami quickly followed over and gave the chicken leg in the bowl to Wen Yunxi. Wen Yunxi did not refuse his kindness and touched his head with the hand holding the chopsticks.
After a long time, just when Wen Yunxi wanted to add some food, Lager said, "Yunxi, I want to go back."
Wen Yunxi nodded, "Okay, just tell me what you want."
Lager looked up at Wen Yunxi, "Don't you ask anything? Don't you want to know the identities of those three people?"
Wen Yunxi glanced at the wooden barrel containing rice, hesitated for a moment and then said, "Wait until I add a bowl of rice."
Lager: "..."
Well, being interrupted by Wen Yunxi, he even lost the desire to talk.
Ami sensed Lager's depressed mood. He remembered the man's most embarrassed appearance, and rarely reached out to touch his long blond hair, "It's okay, he will be fine."
Lager: "..."
Being comforted by Ami, he suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
When Wen Yunxi came back with a big bowl full, he happened to see this scene and gave Ami a thumbs up to encourage him, which made Ami make a grunting sound again.
Ami is actually very smart, otherwise he would not have found this hideout from clues. He has just stayed in the isolated Red Forest tribe and is a little autistic himself, which is why he is so uncommunicative. Wen Yunxi now only needs a chance I encouraged him to communicate more with others. Although the effect was not great, it was gradually improving. (End of chapter)
