“He may wake up in advance,” Mr . Wu said .

“Hey, you need to get ready soon,” Zheng Shixiong said .
“OK,” Mr . Wu said .
On Nanshan Mountain, Wang Yao sat in the medicine field and looked at the sky with the dog lying next to him . “San Xian, there is a beautiful little girl who likes me . What do you think I should I do?”
In fact, Su Xiaoxue was not very little . She was more than 20 years old .
Woof! Woof!
“Are you asking what I feel?” Wang Yao asked . “How would I describe her? She is a beautiful girl . I would lying if I said I had no feelings at all, but we come from two different worlds . I am in the wild mountains while she is like a bright pearl in a bustling city . We are too different . ”
Woof!
“What, you want to have a companion?” Wang Yao asked . “There are some dogs at the foot of the mountain . You can go down and see whether there is anyone you like . ”
Woof! Woof!
“What do you mean by that eye expression?” Wang Yao asked .
The dog got up, turned his rear to him, and returned to his kennel without looking back . Once there, he raised his head to look at the sky .
The next day, the weather was fine . The morning air in the mountain village was exceptionally refreshing and slightly cool .
Su Xiaoxue woke up early while Chen Ying prepared breakfast . After eating, the four of them set off and went straight along the mountain road to Nanshan .
It was more peaceful in the mountains .
Cuckoo! Cuckoo! The sound of birds were all around .
“Ah, the air here is so fresh!” Su Xiaoxue stretched out and breathed the air .
The four people did not take long to walk across the mountain . Nanshan Hill soon appeared in front of them . At this time, the mountain was surrounded by clouds, but the trees and rocks were faintly visible . It was quite like a cloud wonderland .
“It’s so beautiful!” Su Xiaoxue exclaimed .

“This mountain is pretty distinctive . ” Chu Lian slightly sighed . She could not tell what the distinctiveness was, but it indeed looked different .
“Let’s keep going,” Chen Ying said .
They continued to move forward . Although Nanshan seemed to be very close to them, the journey took them a while . They came to the foot of the mountain and looked up . By now, the atmosphere of the lush trees on the mountain were clearly visible .
Cuckoo! Cuckoo! The birds seemed to be extraordinarily cheerful .
At the bottom of the mountain, even breathing was much smoother .
“Can you go up the mountain?” Su Xiaoxue asked .
“We’d best not,” Chen Ying said .
She and her younger brother had been there more than once . When arriving at the foot of the mountain, they had never gone up .
“Mr . Wang does not like it, right?” Su Xiaoxue asked .
“Correct,” Chen Ying said .
“OK, we won’t go up,” Su Xiaoxue said .
They stood at the foot of the mountain for a while before turning and leaving .
Standing on a rock on the top of the mountain, Wang Yao watched them . He had seen them walking along the mountain road from far away . He also saw them stay at the foot of the mountain for a while but not go up it .
“What is the plan today, Lady?” Chen Ying asked .
“Well, let’s just walk around,” Su Xiaoxue said . “Is there something interesting in town?”
“The interesting place here… You were there last time,” Chen Ying said after thinking . Recently, she and her brother had also wandered around . There really were not many places worthy of visiting . There were no historical sites or beautiful scenery of mountains and rivers . Plus, it was not as ancient, bustling, or famous as Jing .
“Since we cannot go up to Nanshan, let’s go to the nearby mountains,” Su Xiaoxue said .
“You can’t go up Xishan either,” Chen Ying said . “Mr . Wang said that the last infectious disease originated from Xishan . Now, the people in this village do not go there . ”
“Can we go to the east side?” Su Xiaoxue asked .

“Yes, we can go there,” Chen Ying said .
The group headed to the east side of the mountain . Although it was called a mountain, it was actually an upland where the forests were not particularly large . Most of the land had been reclaimed as farmland . They walked along the path south . Not long after, they saw Nanshan . Unlike where they were, most of the plants on Nanshan were green trees, which left a pleasing feeling .
Wang Yao had already come down the mountain .
“Can we go a little closer?” Su Xiaoxue asked .
“Oh, I don’t know,” Chen Ying said .
“Let’s just get a little closer,” Su Xiaoxue said .
They slowly came to the place where Dongshan and Nanshan connected .
Woof! Woof!
“What is that?” Su Xiaoxue asked .
A very large dog walked out from the woods behind them and stared at the four people .
“It’s such a big dog! Is it Mr . Wang’s?” Su Xiaoxue asked .
“Yes,” Chen Ying said . The dog appeared bigger than the last time she had seen it .
“What is it called?” Su Xiaoxue asked .
“San Xian,” Chen Ying said .
“San Xian . What a strange name,” Su Xiaoxue said .
Woof! Woof! The dog roared at them . The sounds he made were heavy and powerful .
“Does it want us go?” Su Xiaoxue asked .
“Yes,” Chen Ying said . “We better go . ”
Following her lead, the group turned and headed back in the direction from which they came .

Su Xiaoxue turned to Chen Ying and asked, “You have been here for more than a month . Don’t you feel bored?”
“Fortunately, I really like to it here,” Chen Ying replied .
During the period of martial law because of an infectious diseases, she had been forced to stay . She had spent most of the time in the village . She took walks, read books, and listened to music, which kept her from being bored .
Not long after Wang Yao sat down in his clinic, someone rushed in .
“Dr . Wang, Wei Yun woke up,” Zheng Shixiong said .
“OK, I will go there,” Wang Yao said .
In Sun Yunsheng’s house, Mr . Wu sat on the bed and whispered to the patient, who had just awoken, “Childe, how do you feel?”
“Uncle Wu, how many times have I told you not to call me that?” The young man’s voice was smoky . It was almost as if it could be blown away by a gust of wind .
“I am used to saying it,” Mr . Wu said .
“Where are we?” the young man asked .
“In a small mountain village,” Mr . Wu said . “There is a doctor here whose medical skills are extraordinary . He cured Sun Yunsheng’s disease . ”
“I remember him . He used to have my sympathy . Now, I am the person who should have other’s sympathy . ” The young man sighed weakly .
“Don’t talk too much,” Mr . Wu said . “You need to save your vitality . ”
“OK,” the young replied .
After a while, Zheng Shixiong entered the room with Wang Yao, who quickly approached the patient . The young man’s eyes were dim and not concentrated .
Wang Yao reached out his hand to shake it in front of the young man’s eyes . “Can you see it?”
“It’s just a blurry shadow,” the young man said .
“Take the medicine,” Wang Yao said .
A bowl of regather soup was served .
“Untie his clothes and let me see,” Wang Yao said .
Zheng Shixiong removed the quilt and pulled up the young man’s clothes to reveal his skinny body, which had almost no muscles . His skin was a strange blue-black color and as dry as bark .
Wang Yao reached out his hand to press it gently . The skin was not supple at all . “Can you feel my hand?”
“Yes, I can, but barely,” the young man said .
Wang Yao took out the silver needles and chose an acupoint to insert into . “Do you have any feeling?”
“No,” the young man said .
Wang Yao inserted needles into two more acupuncture points .
The patient still did not feel much . His sense of numbness, itchiness, and pain were weak . He only felt a slight sense of touch . Among the five senses, only his hearing was still within the normal range .
From the outside of the body to the inside, none of the skin, bones, organs, or marrow was normal . His situation was not much better than that of Su Xiaoxue’s when Wang Yao first saw her .
“What about defecation?” Wang Yao asked .
“Bowel movement is one time every two or three days, and urinating is one or two times a day,” Mr . Wu said .
In the young man’s current situation, a large amount of toxins had accumulated in his body that could not be excreted smoothly or in time . The body tissues, such as the organs, were continuously poisoned in the body .
“There is a medicine here to help him detoxify,” Wang Yao said . “He can take it with the regather soup . ”
He took out another dose of medicine made from antidote herb, along with ancient spring water . It was a good antidote to eliminate internal and external poisoning .
“OK, thank you,” Mr . Wu said .
After the young man drank the two medicines, Wang Yao waited for a while . He checked him from time to time . During this period, Mr . Wu fed the young man soup . The aroma of the soup was very refreshing .
Wang Yao guessed that there were many valuable herbs in the soup due to the smell it gave off . He could smell ginseng, angelica root, poria, cartialgenous and ganodorma lucidum . This soup was like a versatile tonic .
The patient drank less than two-thirds of the soup .
“Is this soup very particular?” Wang Yao asked .
“Yes . It’s stewed with sea cucumber and red-scale fish, along with ginseng, cartialgenous, ganoderma lucidum and many other herbs,” Mr . Wu said .
