Chi Jiao performed acupuncture on Wu Li before giving her one of the pills she carried with her.
That pill was especially used to clear the lungs and protect the liver. It was also effective in treating pneumonia.
With these two treatments, Wu Li immediately felt her body relax. Her condition improved significantly.
“Son, I’m hungry. I want to eat noodles,” Wu Li said to the village chief.
Ever since she was bedridden, eating was just a necessary chore for her to survive. She had to force herself to eat.
And now, she was really hungry and had an appetite. She wanted to eat.
“Wife, quickly prepare a bowl of noodles for our mother!” The village chief nearly cried from joy as he said to his wife.
“Yes! Okay!” The village chief’s wife quickly ran out.
A few villagers came with the village chief to see if Chi Jiao could really cure Wu Li.
“Little girl, do you practice Traditional Chinese medicine?” the village chief asked her.
Chi Jiao nodded. “Traditional Chinese medicine is also a scientific method.”
“You have such amazing medical skills at such a young age. Impressive.” The village chief was completely convinced by her now.
Whoever could cure his mother’s illness would be the benefactor of his entire family.
“Please help us, too.” The villager whose son was sick implored. “My son has been ill for a long time. As long as you can cure my son, I will do anything to repay you.”
“Me too! I also want you to treat my family.”
“Me too! Me too!”
“…”
Looking at the villagers in front of her, Chi Jiao cleared her throat and said, “I’ll stay in the village for two more days and offer free medical consultation. Whoever needs treatment, come to Ah Ping’s house to find me. I’ll do my best to help you. But I have one condition.”
“You can ask for anything,” the village chief said respectfully.
“Cooperate with 117,” Chi Jiao said.
“That’s for sure,” the village leader replied firmly. “You saved my mother, so you are our family’s benefactor. We will definitely repay you.”
“There’s no need to repay me.” Chi Jiao smiled and said, “You just have to cooperate with us. Also, my friend is sick. I need him to be protected while at Ah Ping’s house. Village Chief, I left you some pills. You just have to feed them to your mother once every morning and night. In less than half a month, the old madam will be cured.”
The village leader nodded vigorously. “Then, the medical fee…”
“Forget about the fee.” Chi Jiao smiled. “My sick friend still needs my care. I’ll go back first.”
With that, Chi Jiao turned and left.
…
At night.
Quan Jue and Huo Chen finally found all the medicinal herbs that Beitang Lie needed.
They were shocked to see Ah Ping all beaten up.
Then, Pei Yao briefly told them what happened after they left.
Quan Jue and Huo Chen shuddered in fear when they heard what she said.
“We’ll be staying for two more days,” Chi Jiao said with a smile.
Quan Jue looked at her in exasperation.
He really wanted to open her little head and see how crazy she was.
Did she really not know what fear was?
“No matter what, it was a dangerous day.” Huo Chen knew what the villagers were like.
It was precisely because they were so ignorant that they were fearless.
If they had really incited them, Jiaojiao and Pei Yao wouldn’t have been able to escape so easily..
