Fast Wear: A Different Life

Chapter 203 Lotus Tower (6)

After returning, Li Xiangyi walked up to Master's wife and said to her earnestly, "Master's wife, why don't you move to the village at the foot of the mountain? It's more convenient there than on the mountain."

The master's wife shook her head gently, and replied gently but firmly: "No, child, I still want to stay here with your master. Besides, I have lived in this mountain for most of my life, and I am afraid I will not be used to a new place. However, if you are really worried about me, then come and see me when you have time. If you are too busy to leave, you can write to me every now and then to let me know that you are safe."

Hearing what his master's wife said, Li Xiangyi knew that it would be difficult for him to convince her to change her mind. So he turned around and walked into the room silently, taking out a package.

After returning to his master's wife, he carefully opened the package, then looked at her and said softly: "In that case, please accept these things. They are all equipped with detailed effects and instructions for use, all made by Xiao Xiao himself. In addition, you can also take these banknotes, and don't worry about not having enough money. I will send some back to you regularly in the future." After speaking, he handed the package to his master's wife.

Looking at the contents of the package, she carefully checked them over and over again, then raised her head, cast her gaze at Li Xiangyi, and said softly: "I will accept these medicines, but you should take the money back. The journey is long, and you may need money everywhere. Besides, I have some spare silver here. If it is really used up, I can sell the ginseng that your master treasured for some money, and then I will naturally have money to use."

Just as the two were trying to refuse each other, Ji Xiao came over, held her hand tightly, and persuaded her sincerely: "Master's wife, please rest assured, we have a lot of money with us, and this is just a small part of it. Please don't refuse anymore, just accept it! Even if we use it up, we are still young and can still earn more, don't worry."

Seeing how persistent they were, she finally stopped refusing and took the package. She looked up at the sky and found that it was still early and the weather was good, so she urged them: "While it is still early, you should set off quickly. Don't worry about my physical condition. Let's go quickly!" Before she finished speaking, she pushed them out of the courtyard.

Seeing the master's wife's firm attitude, the two knew they couldn't stay any longer, so they turned around and left. When they were halfway there, Li Xiangyi suddenly stopped, turned back and looked into the distance. After a moment of silence, he said to Ji Xiao: "Xiaoxiao, let's go!"

"Okay." Ji Xiao responded softly, then followed him and left.

……

After the two left, they did not rush to look for Shan Gu Dao. Because they knew that Shan Gu Dao was there and would not disappear. So, the two began a wandering without any purpose.

They strolled along the mountain trails, feeling the cool breeze on their faces; they waded into the crystal clear streams, listening to the sound of the gurgling water; they crossed the dense forests, exploring the mysteries of nature... This time was full of freedom and comfort.

However, Ji Xiao always cares about those who need help. She knows that life is not easy for the people in this country, especially when medical conditions are relatively backward. Many people are afraid to go to the clinic when they are sick.

Therefore, one afternoon, when the two of them were sitting together, drinking fragrant tea and admiring the beautiful scenery in the wild, Ji Xiao finally couldn't help but tell Li Xiangyi what she was thinking: "Xiangyi, why don't we practice medicine and travel around slowly like we did before. I found that the people here live a much harder life than we do, and they don't even dare to seek medical treatment when they are sick."

Li Xiangyi looked at Ji Xiao gently, his eyes full of understanding and support. He nodded gently and said, "Okay, as long as it is what you want to do, I will fully support you. Just go for it. I believe you will be able to help more people."

Ji Xiao looked at Li Xiangyi gratefully, her heart filled with warmth. She nodded firmly and responded, "Well, thank you, Xiangyi. Then we will start from tomorrow, and stop for a while in every village we pass by, treat as many villagers as possible, and then continue to the next place."

Li Xiangyi smiled and said, "Okay, then you should have a good rest today. I will prepare all the items and herbs you need for you."

As the night fell, the stars twinkled. Ji Xiao sat aside, looking at Li Xiangyi's back, with a lot of thoughts in her mind. She was looking forward to tomorrow, hoping to use the medical skills she learned to bring some changes to the people on this land. Li Xiangyi was quietly packing his luggage, making full preparations for the next trip.

The next morning, the sun shone all over the land, and everything seemed exceptionally fresh and bright. After careful preparation, the two drove their car towards the nearest village.

After arriving at the destination, Li Xiangyi found the local village chief and briefly explained the purpose of their trip. Then, they followed the village chief to the place where the village usually dries grain.

After the village chief brought the two people to the place, he asked expectantly, "What do you think of this place?"

Li Xiangyi stopped the carriage, looked around carefully, nodded with satisfaction and replied: "Well, this place is quite suitable. Next, I have to trouble the village chief to help inform the villagers."

The village chief agreed repeatedly and said he would fully cooperate. He rubbed his hands with excitement, and then asked with a little trepidation: "Then... can I pass the news to the residents of other nearby villages so that everyone can come to see the doctor together?"

Hearing this, Li Xiangyi, who was arranging tables and chairs, looked up, smiled with satisfaction and responded cheerfully: "Of course! In this way, a wider range of people will benefit, isn't it better?"

The village chief was overjoyed after receiving a positive answer, but he seemed to have some concerns. After a slight hesitation, he spoke again: "However, some villages are far away, and I am afraid we will have to wait until tomorrow to notify them one by one. Do you think this is feasible?"

At this moment, Ji Xiao, who was wearing a simple and capable outfit that was more convenient for movement, slowly walked down from upstairs and said, "Don't worry, we will stay here for another five to six days. Please go and convey the message as soon as possible!"

"That's great! I'm really grateful, two doctors." After nodding and thanking them repeatedly, the village chief turned around and left in a hurry, preparing to tell everyone in the village to come and line up for medical treatment.

After he had made all the arrangements, he sent several strong young villagers to the surrounding villages to spread the good news and notify other villagers to come for medical treatment.
