~6 min read 1,159 words

Father

Lan Tian couldn't worry about that any longer, "Nan Qinghuan, help my father."

Seeing Lan Tian's anxious gaze, Nan Qinghuan also knew that to earn Lan Tian's trust she had to do something for him, "Where is the person?"

"In the Cave, I'll take you there."

It really is a Cave.

When she arrived, she could already see the situation here: the Bai Tribe lived in deep mountain forests, at night it was pitch black and they could only rely on torches for light, the road was full of weeds Rebirth, and Lan Tian, fearing she would fall, lit the way for her.

"We are all like this here, we can't compare to the bright lights of your Kuaihuo City."

Lan Tian's words carried a hint of envy; this was why he wanted to seize Kuaihuo City, but today he also saw that his own strength was insufficient. If Nan Qinghuan hadn't said she needed the precious Herbal Medicine from here, he would have had no chance of survival, so he wisely recognized his own shortcoming.

It happened that Nan Qinghuan did not kill him, which gave him an opportunity.

Nan Qinghuan said nothing, just walked slowly forward, and soon she saw a Cave with firelight; at the Cave Entrance there were some elderly and weak women, indicating that there were not many Bai People.

"Are there only a few hundred people here?"

It's a small Tribe.

She truly admired Lan Tian for daring to bring people to attack a city; who gave him that courage? Lan Tian saw through her but said nothing. Soon, they reached the Cave Entrance, and a few people with chaotic markings on their faces arrived, "Clan Leader, who is she?"

"She is the female doctor I invited."

"Female doctor?"

The tribe members harbored great hostility toward Nan Qinghuan, and seeing that she was a White-skinned Female made it worse, "Oh dear, she's from the Ape Tribe, why is she here?"

What nonsense about the Ape Tribe, Nan Qinghuan was too lazy to reply.

"Enough, stop stalling, where is the patient?"

Saying that, she walked toward the inside of the Cave on her own, and Lan Tian hurriedly followed. When Nan Qinghuan entered, she saw an old man lying on a stone bed.

That appearance truly evoked pity.

His bones were as thin as firewood; that's the only way to describe him.

"Father, I have brought the female doctor."

Seeing his father in such distress, Lan Tian immediately stepped forward, grabbed the old man's hand, "Father, I have found a female doctor for you to see; you will get better."

The old man opened his eyes, and when he saw that Nan Qinghuan's skin was white, he startled and sat up, "Ape Tribe person, is she from the Ape Tribe?"

What the heck? "Father, she isn't; she is Ying's female, Nan Qinghuan."

"Nan Qinghuan?"

The old man seemed to have heard Nan Qinghuan's name, "She is the Goddess, you have brought the Goddess, huh?"

Goddess? Nan Qinghuan was speechless; how could her reputation be so great that everyone knows her wherever she goes? Lan Tian nodded, "Yes, Goddess, Nan Qinghuan, please examine my father."

Nan Qinghuan didn't chatter either, and immediately examined the old man's pulse and condition; she discovered the biggest problem here was... lack of food and clothing.

How tragic.

Having seen the Common People in the city eat abundantly and live comfortably, seeing these people now with nothing to eat made her feel uneasy.

"What's the matter?"

After Nan Qinghuan finished examining, Lan Tian hurriedly asked her, and Nan Qinghuan, holding the Silver Needle she brought, said, "It's troublesome; first, there's the Rheumatism issue. I will use the Silver Needle to treat him. You go prepare some food; the old man's Stomach Disease, caused by years of undernourishment, is also a problem. These are all issues."

In short, it's a whole body of ailments.

She had treated such people before; they were truly pitiful.

"Understood, I'll have people prepare food right away."

Lan Tian went to prepare food, while Nan Qinghuan used the Silver Needle to treat the old man. When the Silver Needle was inserted, the old man screamed in pain.

"Bold!"

A woman, holding a stone as if to smash Nan Qinghuan, shouted, "You hurt the Clan Leader!"

Nan Qinghuan calmly replied, "If you don't want him to get better, then smash me down."

"You..."

"Xiao Qing, step back."

The old man had just been screaming, but now suddenly felt much better; his legs had been unable to walk and hurt terribly at night.

The pain kept him from sleeping at all.

"Clan Leader"

"Step back"

The woman had no choice but to step back, and Nan Qinghuan slowly twisted the Silver Needle; soon, after her treatment, she finally withdrew the Silver Needle.

"Father, try whether your leg can move now?"

Move his leg? The old man thought it impossible; he had been lying there for over a year, and if he could move he would have already done so.

"Even if you are the Goddess, you cannot heal my leg; I can no longer move."

Nan Qinghuan put away the Silver Needle, then carefully helped him up, "Get up and try?"

Sure enough, she personally helped the old man stand, and he was surprised to find his leg seemed to have strength, and he even seemed able to stand up.

"I can stand up now?"

The old man's happy words were already trembling.

Seeing the old man so delighted, Nan Qinghuan carefully supported him, "Come, slowly."

Thus, with Nan Qinghuan's help, the old man took his first step, then the second, the third... In this cramped Cave, the old man was as happy as a child.

"I can walk now, I can move!"

Xiao Qing also stared in astonishment, dropping whatever she held, "Old Clan Leader, you can walk!"

Meanwhile, Lan Tian, who had gone outside to fetch food, saw Nan Qinghuan supporting his father as he got up, and he was even walking.

He was holding a sweet potato and almost dropped it, losing his grip.

He thought his father would die, but didn't expect to still be able to watch him stand up again.

And he looks still very healthy.

What on earth is going on? Is Nan Qinghuan really that skilled in medicine? "Father…"

Nan Tian rushed in quickly, grabbed the old man in one arm, and the old man, overjoyed, looked at his son, his eyes filled with delight.

"Lan Tian, I can stand up now. I didn't expect I could stand up again. The Goddess really is different. Great, my legs don't hurt anymore."

The old man expressed his surprise, and after Lan Tian understood, they gently pushed their father aside. He looked happily toward Nan Qinghuan, "Nan Qinghuan, thank you for saving my father. All my female doctors said my father would die; I knew you could rescue him. Thank you."
