“Block this well . Don’t drink the water from it anymore,” Wang Yao told the villagers .

They used a wooden board to block the well and placed a few big stones around it . It already afternoon when they finished everything .

Wang Yao planned to find a place to drink some water . The party secretary of the county, Gong Zurong, came over and invited Wang Yao to his house . He was an old man in his 50s .

“Thank you very much, Dr . Wang,” he said .

Wang Yao had treated the children and saved two families, all without asking for anything in return . A person like that was hard to come by .

“You’re welcome,” Wang Yao said .

After pausing in thought, Gong Zurong asked, “Umm, Dr . Wang, where does the poison in the well water come from?”

“I’m really not sure . We’ll have to wait for the inspection and quarantine results from Shangjun before we can make a further analysis and judgment,” Wang Yao said .

“Is there no problem with the well?” Gong Zurong asked .

“There’s no problem with it for the time being,” Wang Yao replied .

“Alright . Are you free tonight, Dr . Wang?” Gong Zurong asked .

“Yes, I am . ”

“Why don’t you have dinner here tonight?” Gong Zurong asked .

Wang Yao agreed . After dinner, he returned to Gong Aiguo’s house . He discovered there were several guests in his house .

“Dr . Wang . ” They all got up and greeted him .

Wang Yao had met some of them before . He did not know some of them at all .

“Hello,” Wang Yao responded with a smile .

“Dr . Wang, are your consultation fees expensive?” one of them asked .

“Huh?” Wang Yao was startled . He immediately realized that these people came over to have their illnesses treated .

“It depends on the type of illness,” Wang Yao answered .

“Can you please have a look? My waist is particularly uncomfortable,” the man said . “It always hurts when I bend my waist . ”

Wang Yao took a look .

“It’s a lumbar muscle strain . You’re tired from work . You have to rest more . I’ll give you a massage,” Wang Yao said .

He gave the man a massage therapy using the massaging techniques with a tinge of neixi .

“I feel great!” The man was enjoying himself very much . He only felt that his waist was warm . It was as if he was lying on the hot kang at home . It was also not throbbing anymore .

“You’re awesome!” the man exclaimed .

The patient’s intuitive feeling was the best way to explain the problem . His body felt much better just by getting massaged for half an hour .

“Umm, how much should I pay you?” he asked .

“Forget it . Rest more when you get home . Sleep on the hot kang and apply hot compress,” Wang Yao replied .

“Alright . Thank you very much . ” The man left with a smile .

The second patient was a woman in her 40s who had gray hair . She was suffering from headaches . Her head hurt very badly when it was cold . The chill had entered her brain .

Wang Yao gave her a massage . It made her feel a lot better . Then, he prescribed her a medicine .

“This is the formula . Find a medicine shop and buy the medicinal herbs . Let me have a look after you’ve bought them,” he said .

“Okay . Thank you,” she replied .

The third patient was suffering from lower back pain . His condition was the same as the first patient . Wang Yao gave him the same treatment .

Not long after the three people left, the sky had darkened . It was night time . Gong Aiguo’s wife had begun to prepare dinner .

“We’re not having dinner at your house tonight . ” Wang Yao told her that they would be having dinner at the party secretary’s house .

“Why is he treating us to dinner?”

“You’ll know when you get there . ”

The party secretary did not have a better financial state compared to Gong Aiguo . He was even worse . There were some simple home cooked dishes for dinner . The wine was however, excellent .

“My son brought back this wine . I’m reluctant to drink it on normal days,” Gong Zurong said .

“I’ll have to taste it then,” Wang Mingbao replied with a smile .

They gradually got acquainted after sipping some wine .

“Dr . Wang, Manager Wang, thank you so much,” Gong Zurong said .

The people who came back from the county town said that the people being treated were sent to the hospital in time . Otherwise, their lives might still be in danger . They even asked how they had handled the situation . Gong Zurong knew that this was all thanks to Wang Yao .

“You’re welcome,” Wang Yao said .

“How did a well that had no problem go to waste?” The old man sighed . “Dr . Wang, I heard that you didn’t take any money from seeing a few patients in the afternoon . ”

“Oh . It’s nothing,” Wang Yao answered .

“It’s nothing to you, but it’s kindness to us!” Gong Zurong took a sip of wine alone . “The traffic in our mountain village is inconvenient . There are no local specialties either . The poor have no money to see a doctor, and they don’t have the money to attend school . It’s now difficult for the villagers to have wives . They’re not willing to come over when they hear that the men are from this village . ”

“The villages in the vicinity aren’t doing too well, right?” Wang Yao asked .

He saw that the road extended into the mountains . There should be other villages inside .

“They’re more or less the same as ours,” Gong Zurong said .

“I see a lot of grains and jujube trees in the village,” Wang Yao said .

The millets and jujubes in Qinzhou were famous .

“There are a lot of them . There are people who have come to buy them, but it can’t be sold for a good price,” Gong Zurong replied .

In the mountain village, the villagers depended on the weather and soil to make a living .

“If the road is repaired, things will be better,” Wang Yao said .

“The county does not have the money,” Gong Zurong said .

“That is a problem,” Wang Yao responded .

They accompanied the old man to drink a few glasses of wine . They listened to him talk about some matters and his complaints . It was already past 8 p . m . when they left . The sky was completely dark .

Wang Yao sat in the yard alone and looked at the sky . The sky was loftier because there was less pollution .

“What are you looking at?” Wang Mingbao asked with a cigarette dangling from his lips .

“Astronomical phenomena,” Wang Yao said .

“What can you see from it?” Wang Mingbao asked .

Oh right . Huh? Wang Yao suddenly stood up and looked at the sky .

“What’s wrong?” Wang Mingbao asked .

“This is weird!” He saw such a strange astronomical phenomena for the first time .

Wang Mingbao did not know what his buddy was talking about .

That night, the dogs in the village barked madly non-stop for no reason .

Oh no! Wang Yao suddenly woke up .

“Wake up . ”

He first woke Wang Mingbao up . He then woke Gong Aiguo’s family . They went to the yard .

“What’s wrong, Dr . Wang?”

“Wake everyone nearby up,” Wang Yao said .

“What’s wrong?”

“I think there’ll be an earthquake,” Wang Yao said .

“What? Earthquake?”

“It’s too late . Cover your ears,” Wang Yao said .

Wang Mingbao subconsciously covered his ears . Gong Aiguo’s family quickly followed suit and covered their ears . They did not know what the young man was going to do .

“Wake up!”

There was a thunder-like roar . The tremor scattered . The windows of the house kept ringing .

“What’s going on?”

The villagers were frightened awake by the loud roar . Wang Mingbao and Gong Aiguo’s family were dumbfounded .

There was a rumble . Then, the earth began to shake . There was an earthquake . The villagers ran out from their houses . Then, it became calm .

Huh? There’s no more?

The dogs in the village were still barking . The villagers did not go back into their houses to sleep .

“Is it still going to shake?” Wang Mingbao asked .

“How do I know?”

They stayed in the yard for two hours . The barking of the dogs in the village gradually subsided .

“It should be fine now,” Wang Yao said .

“Let’s go back in and sleep then . ”

They went back into the house to sleep . The rest of them stayed in the yard or gathered together . They were scared to go back into their houses .

“Ah . I’m so sleepy!”

“Why is there an earthquake all of a sudden when everything is fine?”

“Hey, did you hear a loud roar?”

“Of course I did . It was just like a thunder . I woke up immediately . What was that sound?”

“I don’t know . Is it the sound of firecrackers?”

“I think I heard someone shouting . ”

“Someone shouted? Who has such a loud voice?”

Early in the morning, almost all of the villagers were listless since no one slept well the night before . Although they were in low spirits, they still had to work and make breakfast . Therefore, the villagers went to the only well left in the village to fetch some water while yawning . In the end, the water that was fetched was turbid .

“What’s wrong with the water?”

“Could it be that it’s poisonous too?”

People were worried . Someone took the water to Wang Yao to ask about it .

“It’s poisonous . It can’t be drunk anymore,” Wang Yao said after tasting it .

“What are we going to do?”

Both wells were poisonous . Drinking water had become a problem in the village . It was originally not poisonous . There was poison after the slight earthquake the night before .

Does the poison come from the underground? Wang Yao thought about it while staring at the bucket of water .

Although the earthquake had only lasted for a short time, it happened . The most obvious problem was that some of the old houses in the village had cracked walls . A large furrow broke open on the slope in the south of the village . It was more than 3 inches wide and 6 feet deep .

There was no drinking water in the village . This was the biggest problem faced by hundreds of families .

“What are we going to do?”

“If all else fails, we have to fetch water from the reservoir to the village . ”

“That’s so far!”

There was a reservoir a little less than a mile away from the mountain village, but it was farther away from the village . It was usually used only for irrigation .

“The water doesn’t taste good too!”

“Why don’t we take this opportunity and connect tap water?”

“It’s easy for you to say . What about the money? Who’s going to spend?”

Everyone kept quiet once the issue about money was mentioned .

Wang Yao was on the hill outside the mountain village . He was staring at the crack on the ground .

What’s going on?

He felt a unique Qi was seeping out of the cracks . This was definitely not a Qi of the earth because he felt a chill from it .

This is weird!

He pondered for a moment while staring at the crack . Then, he turned around and went back to the village . After a while, he came back again with a shovel and a pick . He then chose a suitable location and started digging a hole .

“What are you doing?” Wang Mingbao came out of the village and only found Wang Yao after a long time . Wang Yao had already dug a square pit .

“I think there may be something underground,” Wang Yao said .

“Something? What is it?” Wang Mingbao asked .

“I don’t know . I’ll dig and see,” Wang Yao said .

As he continued digging, he felt the chilly Qi was getting stronger and stronger .

There must be something unusual in the underground!
