Chapter 349: Chapter 350: Searching for Herbal Medicine
"I’m not sure if it exists, but we can look for it anyway. If we can find it, treating your leg will be easier." Yang Chuxia didn’t have much hope in her heart, but she still had to try her best to look for it. "I remember now, we need to check the mountain behind us. Generally, there are more herbs in the mountains. If we can’t find any wild vegetables or animals on such a large mountain, and not even a single herb, we might as well burn that damn mountain."
Yang Chuxia was always a person of action, and she would do whatever came to her mind immediately. "That’s right, I have nothing to do in the next few days, so I’ll go to the mountain tomorrow."
"Ah, Xiaxia, how about going the day after tomorrow?" Ye Zi’an said, "I want to go with you."
"Well, you can go the day after tomorrow. It’s not going to be easy to find what I want."
"Alright then."
After they finished talking, Yang Xiayun came over and told them that Uncle Cai had arrived.
It turned out that when Yang Chuxia went to look for Uncle Cai, he was not at home. His neighbor told him that Yang Chuxia was looking for him after he returned home, so he came over, still carrying his medical kit out of habit.
After hearing that he was here to treat some puppies, the corners of Uncle Cai’s mouth twitched. However, he still examined the chow chows.
The conclusion was that the chow chows had indeed been drugged, but not with ordinary sedatives. Instead, they had been given sedatives with a very strong dosage. So, Uncle Cai prescribed a detoxifying soup. Yang Chuxia decocted the soup and mixed it in with the chow chows’ food, and they ate it.
Fortunately, Uncle Cai’s herbs were of high quality, and the chow chows’ spirits improved greatly the next day. Seeing this, Yang Chuxia finally felt relieved.
After breakfast, Yang Chuxia thought about yesterday’s events and went to find Uncle Cai.
Entering the mountain to search for herbs was something that required Uncle Cai’s help, as he frequently went on such trips and should know where they could find more.
Moreover, if they did find all the necessary ingredients, they would need someone familiar with medicine to help with the composition. The most suitable person would be someone trustworthy and familiar, and after careful deliberation, Uncle Cai seemed like the best choice.
In the early morning, when Uncle Cai saw her coming, he asked, "What’s wrong? Are your puppies still not well?"
"Not at all, Uncle Cai. Your medical skills are outstanding, and your medicine definitely cured them."
"Then, what do you want from me?"
"Can we talk in your house?"
"Come in, then."
After laying out some herbs on a sieve, Uncle Cai entered the house, and Yang Chuxia followed him.
"Uncle Cai, I want to enter the mountain to find some herbs, not the common ones found in pharmacies. I want to find them in the mountains, and I don’t know if you can help me?" After thinking for a moment, Yang Chuxia added, "Of course, I won’t let you help me for free. Each time you accompany me into the mountains, I’ll count it as a consultation fee or payment for your help."
"This isn’t a big deal. There’s no need to talk about payment; I’ll just take you. But when do you want to go?"
"If possible, I’d like to go today."
Yang Chuxia thought that time waits for no one. She had already arranged the schedule with Brother An and the doctor, so she could only hurry up. If it really wasn’t possible, she would have to change the date with the doctor later.
Upon hearing this, Uncle Cai nodded, "Alright, I don’t have anything to do today either, so I’ll take you into the mountains. I’ll prepare a bit first. You can go home and wait for me."
"Okay, I’ll go back and prepare too."
After saying goodbye to Uncle Cai, Yang Chuxia went home and found a carrying basket. She also took two small shovels and some water and dry food.
Just in case, she also brought her small crossbow and sleeve arrows. She informed Ms. Wang and Yang Dachuan as well.
