Chapter 643: Beast World: Raising a Wife 17

Hua Wan, at this time when everyone was happy, suddenly spoke again.

He suddenly seemed to remember, weaving through a few people and taking hold of a female's arm, "A Yun, your mate hasn't been sick for a long time, can't he go hunting? Bai Mo is so capable, he can surely cure it!"

Although Hua Wan's words were directed at A Yun, her voice was not small at all; at least everyone in the cave could hear it.

The beastfolk who were thanking Bai Mo looked over, also recalling A Yun's family matter.

A Yun's face looked somewhat worried; he had just been pleased that the offspring were fine, but then remembered his mate lying ill at home, and his brows furrowed deeply again.

Worry looked toward Bai Mo, seeming not to know how to speak.

Priest: "Gui Zi's illness is too serious, already……"

She paused, really unable to bear letting A Yun be sad, and said to Bai Mo, "Why don't you give it a try?"

Seeing everyone's hesitant appearance, and seeing Hua Wan's eyes filled with relief, Bai Mo knew this illness might be very serious.

He recalled the second book Jin Chen had shown him, a book on medical pulse diagnosis, which was very miraculous.

Who knows, saving a person would be a thing.

"Alright, I'll give it a try, but the herbs are over there, I can't easily go there."

"I'll help you!"

A Ming Ya stood up again, now truly looking at Bai Mo with new respect.

He sought out A Di Er and several other elderly males who volunteered to help, together going to help A Yun carry Gui Zi over.

This time the priest didn't put too much pressure on Bai Mo, just letting him do his best to save.

After Gui Zi was carried over, the cave's atmosphere, which had been lively from curing the offspring, also calmed down.

The playful offspring also seemed to sense something, staying quietly in their family's embrace without moving, only opening their curious beast eyes to gaze.

A Yun and Gui Zi's offspring even more quietly jumped down, curling beside the father without moving, their big, watery eyes staring without blinking.

On the way here, Gui Zi had already heard A Di Er talk about what happened here; he is a male beast in his prime, previously considered brave, slightly older than Jin Chen, and their relationship is still decent.

But now he is emaciated, his hands habitually pressing on his abdomen, pressing hard inward, his whole body curled up on the animal hide, his mouth dark, his eyes lifeless.

He did not want to die, so upon hearing this today, he placed all his hopes on Bai Mo.

"Don't be nervous, relax your body."

Bai Mo greeted him, then gestured for Gui Zi to extend an arm.

Under everyone's gaze, Bai Mo placed his hand on Gui Zi's wrist, concentrating to feel.

He had never actually practiced pulse diagnosis on others, but when he tried it on himself and Yu Wu, it was always accurate.

At the cun-guan position, it felt like pressing on a string, straight and tense, also very thin, not smooth.

Bai Mo immediately found the corresponding pulse pattern in his mind.

"String-like, rough pulse……"

He pondered, then observed Gui Zi's appearance, and asked A Yun beside him, "Does your mate often unable to keep food down, vomiting after eating?"

A Yun nodded repeatedly, "Yes, since falling ill, even the meat he loves most cannot be eaten."

Bai Mo then asked Gui Zi himself, fearing his consciousness might be unclear, and deliberately lowered his voice.

"Is your painful spot like being cut by a stone knife, hurting so much that pressing for a long time only eases it a bit, and eating makes it worse? Also occasionally you vomit blood."

Gui Zi listened slowly, his eyes suddenly flashing with light, excitedly grabbing Bai Mo's hand, he spoke, his voice as thin as a spider's silk.

"Yes… yes!"

Seeing the diagnosis was correct, Bai Mo also breathed a sigh of relief, his expression relaxing considerably, fortunately not the fatal illness described in the book.

"Let me look at your tongue."

Gui Zi also did so.

After observing for a while, Bai Mo could basically make a determination.

Stagnant blood, long-term consumption of hard food causing stomach ailment, the tongue also shows purple spots.

Need to harmonize the stomach and reverse its uprising, nourish yin throughout the body.

"Yu Wu, listen to me, help me find what herbs are available here."

"Hey, you want me to find them."

Yu Wu immediately brought over a large bundle.

Bai Mo tilted his head, recalling the prescription from the book.

"Lily, angelica, poria, scrophularia, nine-section calamus, mountain ginger……"

Bai Mo spoke softly, and suddenly everyone focused their gaze on him, the eagerness and admiration in their eyes impossible to hide.

This is what a wise person is! Their tribe finally has a wise person!

Yu Wu followed Bai Mo learning how to identify these herbs, slowly searching, and only after Bai Mo finished reciting did he lay out what he currently had.

"Bai Mo, you listed fifteen kinds, but we only have eight here; the others I've never even heard of."

"Eight kinds, let me take a look."

Bai Mo went over to see which eight they were, "Should be enough; first put water to boil, then I'll go look on the back mountain."

"Okay."

Dong Qian quickly added another big pot of water, letting Yu Wu put the herbs in.

Bai Mo comforted A Yun and Gui Zi, "Don't worry, this illness isn't serious; just don't eat overly hard food normally, and don't lie down immediately after eating meat, as that's bad for the body."

"It looks serious because it's been dragged out, but it can still be treated now."

"So that's how it is……"

A Yun suddenly relaxed his tense expression, glaring at Gui Zi, "It's all your fault, insisting on eating chewy meat! Now look, do you still have any strength?"

Gui Zi knew he was at fault, also aware that during his illness his mate had given everything, and he gave her an appeasing smile.

Bai Mo: "After the herbal decoction is ready later, it might taste bitter, but after drinking it for seven days and then resting well, you'll improve a lot."

From now on, you also need to pay more attention; you can only eat softer food.

Good, good, good, thank you, Bai Mo! Really, thank you...

Ayun stubbornly held back, not letting Tears fall, grabbed Bai Mo's hand to thank him, having saved her offspring and also saved her mate, simply being their family's great benefactor.

Now everyone had nothing more to say, just praising Bai Mo as being incredibly capable, to the point that even such a serious illness wasn't serious in his mouth.

The Chief and Dong Qian exchanged a glance, their eyes full of relief; they never expected Jin Chen to have found such a capable partner.

The priest admitted his narrow-mindedness, apologized to Bai Mo, and also said he would appoint him as the tribe's sage.

Bai Mo, however, did not immediately agree; he wanted to wait for Jin Chen to return before making plans.

While they chatted, some people had already gone home to prepare things to bring to Bai Mo's house, all kinds of valuable items.

Chunks of meat, tasty fruits, or handy tools—in short, all represented their gratitude.

Meanwhile, the female Sub-Beasts remaining in the cave expressed strong criticism toward Hua Wan.

If it weren't for Hua Wan constantly saying in the tribe how severe Bai Mo's curse was, they wouldn't have almost provoked Bai Mo today, and almost gotten Bai Mo expelled!

Hua Wan was both shocked and annoyed, never expecting Bai Mo to be this capable, which instead made him feel even more inferior.
