"Huh?"
The burly man with a bushy beard halted instantly, standing rigidly at the entrance of the main hall.
The muscular man next to him had just half erged, his hands raised halfway, but his figure also froze in place, and the cluster of golden stars at his hands scattered.
However, what truly surprised Yang Xiaoi was the last thin old man, because after Lu Zheng’s command, the figure of the old man was just five steps away from her.
Yang Xiaoi jumped in fright, instinctively retreating two steps to stand next to Liu Qingquan.
"It’s all right, nothing to worry about, these three mountain demons are no match for Brother-in-law," Liu Qingquan casually waved her hand.
The bushy-bearded man’s eyes were angry, the muscular man’s eyes were solemn, while the thin old man’s eyes were fierce. Under the Body-Freezing Curse, even though they were all panicked to death, their expressions couldn’t change.
Liu Qingyan waved her hand, and the three unconscious children at the door floated to her side, including the child in the cloth bag who was released.
Liu Qingyan looked at the children, then at the three people before her, finally focusing her gaze on the bushy-bearded man.
She approached the man, reaching out to pat his body twice.
Lu Zheng snapped his fingers, releasing him from the Body-Freezing Curse.
However, the man didn’t continue to charge at Lu Zheng but trembled all over, collapsing to the ground, his muscles twitching, and then...
"Ah, ah, ah..."
Lu Zheng pointed a finger, silencing the man completely.
"Such a brawny guy, screaming like a little girl, isn’t that embarrassing?"
The bushy-bearded man’s eyes were bloodshot, with a pleading look in his eyes toward Lu Zheng.
Lu Zheng nodded, looking at Liu Qingyan, "It seems you chose the right person."
Liu Qingyan suppressed the spell she had just planted in the man, unlocking his Mute Acupoint, and calmly asked, "Where did you capture these children from?"
The bushy-bearded man swallowed, "If I tell you, can you spare my life?"
Liu Qingyan didn’t respond, turning her gaze to the muscular man behind him instead.
Seeing Lu Zheng smile and raise his hand, the bushy-bearded man’s pupils shrank, hurriedly saying, "We just grabbed them from mountain villages randomly, without paying special attention to locations, but they’re all within the Tonglin County region."
As he finished speaking, Lu Zheng lowered his raised hand.
"Bang!"
A soft sound, Dragon Power surged into his brain, the bushy-bearded man flipped and fell, dead and dispersed, transforming into a two-ter-high black bear.
Liu Qingquan’s eyes brightened, involuntarily licking her lips, "We can have bear paws! What about the other two?"
"A leopard and an old wolf," Lu Zheng said lightly.
Without any actions, just a fleeting strike of the Golden Palace Heart Sword, casting from the Divine Soul, the muscular man and the thin old man fell to the ground without any signs, revealing their true forms.
Indeed, it was a leopard and a wolf, both larger than ordinary beasts.
Liu Qingquan frowned, "The wolf at is a bit old."
"Not tasty, so we can give it to the villagers in the village below. It’s still at." Lu Zheng spoke while looking at Yang Xiaoi, "They won’t mind, will they?"
Yang Xiaoi shook her head repeatedly, "Of course not, the uncles and aunts will be very happy!"
"That’s good." Lu Zheng nodded, "By the way, where were we?"
Shen Ying giggled, "We’ve finished our discussion."
"Oh, right, it’s done, so let’s hurry down the mountain." Lu Zheng said, "Weren’t we going to treat grandma? We were so rushed climbing up that we didn’t ntion it."
Yang Xiaoi’s eyes brightened, glanced at the Ginseng Doll, and finally couldn’t help but ask, "Is it to treat my grandma?"
The Ginseng Doll nodded repeatedly, "Yes, Sister Yueyao and Sister Qingyan, they are very skilled physicians, even skilled in alchemy."
Lu Zheng waved his hand, and the bodies of the black bear, leopard, and old wolf flew into his gourd, then white clouds rose beneath everyone’s feet, carrying the children, and the group flew out of the main hall towards the mountain village from when they had co.
On the clouds, Yang Xiaoi nervously grasped Liu Qingyan’s sleeve, but still boldly looked down, full of curiosity and excitent.
After a mont, the group returned to the mountain village at the foot of the mountain. By this ti, Aunt Li had returned to her house next door, and Yang Xiaoi’s grandmother had already fallen asleep.
The group silently entered the house without disturbing Yang Xiaoi’s grandmother, and then Yang Xiaoi looked hopefully at Liu Qingyan.
"Don’t worry!"
Liu Qingquan patted Yang Xiaoi’s shoulder, "My sister’s dical skill is unrivaled, as long as your grandma isn’t at death’s door, my sister will surely be able to save her, and even if she were, my sister could extend her life for several years."
"Bang!"
"Ow!"
Liu Qingquan held her forehead, retreating with a pained expression.
Liu Qingyan withdrew her jade finger, then sat next to the bed, both examining the elderly woman’s left hand from under the worn quilt and shaking her head, saying, "Don’t boast without thinking, how many places have you visited to dare say ’unrivaled’? If the Fang Family heard, it would just cause laughter."
Liu Qingquan pouted, "Even Young Master Ning, who ca from Zhongjing, said he’s never seen dical skills like yours."
Liu Qingyan was speechless, "Does Young Master Ning need a doctor in Zhongjing?"
Liu Qingquan shook her head, "No."
Liu Qingyan, "..."
Liu Qingquan, "..."
Liu Qingyan tucked the elderly woman’s right hand back under the quilt and took the left hand to check her pulse.
It’s her habit in treating illnesses, even if she can see the patient’s condition at a glance, she insists on checking the pulse to confirm, showing thorough responsibility.
A mont later, Liu Qingyan stood up.
Yang Xiaoi raised her head, looked at Liu Qingyan expectantly.
"Qi deficiency and physical weakness, occasionally affected by cold, continued working without recovering, given her age, it triggered an old ailnt and showed signs of Yin deficiency, the illness lies between the heart and lungs," Liu Qingyan said.
"I’ll perform acupuncture on her and prescribe dication; if she rests for a month following the prescription, this bout will be cured."
Yang Xiaoi’s eyes brightened.
"However..." Liu Qingyan said, "During this month, the elder must rest properly with sufficient food and drink."
Yang Xiaoi nodded repeatedly, "I can do it!"
"But there remains an old ailnt in her body, now the height of winter, cold and freezing, especially at night which is wet and chilly. Are you really up to it?"
Yang Xiaoi fell silent.
Liu Qingyan looked at the Ginseng Doll, then at Yang Xiaoi, smiling gently, "Why not bring your grandma to stay with us?"
"Hmm?"
Yang Xiaoi’s pupils shrank, she instantly lifted her head, looking at Liu Qingyan and then at the Ginseng Doll.
Liu Qingyan smiled faintly, "I heard from Shen Bao’Er that you’re skilled at recognizing dicinal herbs? Just in ti, I have a dical shop in Tonglin County, why not help there for this month, would that be okay?"
