Shen Yi Di Nu Divine Doctor: Daughter of the First Wife (神医嫡女）[Book 1]

Surgery

"What about you?" Bai Ze was hesitant to leave him alone and turned his eyes towards Feng Yu Heng.

She could only resign herself to staying, "I'll stay and look after him."

The old man added: "Just escorting me out of the mountains is enough. I know the roads outside."

Bai Ze had nothing else to say as he quickly led the old man away.

Only after they had walked further away did Fneg Yu Heng pick up the broken jar to fetch more water. Upon returning, she had two white pills in her hand.

"Eat this." She handed both the pills and the water to the brocade-wearing man. "If you don't eat it, it's very likely that you will have a fever... err feel warm. If things go poorly, then the treatment will have been for naught."

The man said nothing. He immediately ate the pills upon receiving them causing her to stare blankly at him: "You aren't worried that I might have given you poison?"

He quietly hmphed, "A poison made so exquisitely, if I've eaten it, then I've eaten it." After saying that, he raised his hand towards Feng Yu Heng, "Give it."

"Huh?" She responded absentmindedly. Quickly remembering, she handed over the spray bottle. "There is still a good amount left. For this injury, there is enough for three more uses."

He looked at the bottle in his hands and tried to imitate her actions. Looking towards the nozzle, Feng Yu Heng quickly stopped him. "Don't press it!" Then made sure to instruct him. "Look, there's a small opening here. Aim it towards the targeted area then squeeze to spray it. If you squeezed it earlier, it would've been sprayed in your eyes."

He accepted the lesson. "Thank you."

The two sat there, neither speaking a word. The brocade-wearing man closed his eyes and leaned against a tree. It was hard to tell just what he was thinking about. Feng Yu Heng held her right wrist, as her conscious mind dove straight back to her pharmacy.

In her previous life, there was a phoenix-shaped birthmark on her right arm. Who would have expected that after reincarnating, it would still be there. Furthermore, it brought along her pharmacy.

The pharmacy was as she had left it. The first floor was for Western medicine and prescription Chinese medicines. There was also a wall of Chinese herbal medicine.

The main draw of the second floor was simple medical equipment. Hidden there, were also some not-for-market special medicines, the majority of which she'd taken from the Marine Corps. She had also collected some miracle drugs from around the world.

Among the various arrangements, was a table of medical supplies. For example: gauze, tape, cotton balls, alcohol, iodine, and those sorts of things. In addition, she spent her resting time on the second floor, so there was a washroom and a shower room. There was even a refrigerator and a microwave.

The table still had her most commonly used make up items. The drawer even still contained snacks. It also had a jewelry box. She didn't usually wear jewelry, and those that she left at the pharmacy were not worth very much. Most were made of silver and were purchased because she thought they were pretty, but she never ended up wearing them. There were a few pieces of gold jewelry, none with diamonds, but there was one with a ruby.

These sorts of things were extremely common, but currently, it was like going back to the stone age. Oh... but she really had gone back in time.

Feng Yu Heng inwardly sighed, subconsciously, she had thought about the helicopter crash, but did not want to think too deeply on it. She knew that it was not a simple disaster. Her theories were all haphazard, but she did not want to admit it.

Regardless, she was alive again. In regards to the pharmacy being accessible, she was very pleased. Her previous life's specialties were only Chinese medicine and Western medicine. Chinese medicine was an ancestral craft passed down through the generations. Western medicine was a product of decade-long research phases combined with combat testing. If fighting wars counted as a skill, then she could be considered a top professional. At least if it was a one on one, she could draw even with the most iron-willed men in the Corps.

But these sorts of things, would they be of use in this era?

Something went off in her mind, and she removed her consciousness from the space.

Not far away, a person's shadow appeared. She warily looked over, and the brocade-wearing man spoke: "It's Bai Ze returning."

Feng Yu Heng rose, "Since your people have returned, I will be leaving."

She did her best to keep snot from dripping, the mountain was rather chilly. "It's really unfair. In treating your leg, I also had a part. Yet you did not tell Bai Ze to escort me." Then without waiting for the other party to respond, she waved her hands and continued, "I'm kidding. But..." The girl's eyes flashed. "I took care of your problems. Shouldn't you give something in return?"

"Hm?" The brocade-wearing man displayed a slight shock, then let out a bitter smile. "What sort of repayment do you want?"

She counted on her fingers: "Not only did I help treat your injury, I also gave you three kinds of medicines. I also gave you the remainder of the medicine. You tell me how much that cost."

Reluctantly he said, "I know that medicine is advanced and hard to get. Problem is I really don't have that amount of money right now." While speaking, he removed a pouch from his waist and weighed it with his hand. "There is at most 20 taels1 of silver pieces. Considering you live in the mountains, this should be easier to use."

"20 taels?" She pondered for a moment. She couldn't figure out how much 20 taels was worth.

He thought she was thinking it wasn't enough, "If we meet again, no matter the amount this girl asks, I will not say no."

Feng Yu Heng hated these sorts of words. 'If we meet again.' when these sorts of words were spoken, it usually meant they would never meet again.

She once again looked uncontrollably at his forehead. The lotus flower so purple it made it hard for people to look away. It made her feel like she had taken a huge loss.

"Then let's do that." Receiving the bag of money, Feng Yu Heng weighed it in her hands. It was pretty heavy. Then, following the directions memorized by the body's previous owner, she headed down the mountain in big strides.

The brocade-wearing man watched the small, small shadow get further away. She was small and weak, but displayed a hardheaded stubbornness. His expression slowly revealed a faint smile. Seeing this smile as he returned, Bai Ze was frightened. It truly frightened the guard who had grown up with him.

"Young, young master." Was he smiling?

"Hm." He ceased reminiscing. "How did it go?"

"I escorted him to the entrance to the mountain and knocked him out. Whether he survives before waking up is reliant on his own luck." Having said that, Bai Ze glanced in the direction Feng Yu Heng had gone. "Young master, do you want this subordinate to take care of business over there?"

"No need." The brocade-wearing man quickly responded. "We'll leave this mountain tomorrow."

"Subordinate obeys!"
