Chapter 334
As time slowly passed, Dongfang Wan'er, relying on her profound medical knowledge and the abundant medicinal resources of the valley, devoted herself to research and successfully developed a series of unprecedented new prescriptions. These prescriptions were remarkably effective and gradually became famous in the surrounding areas, attracting many patients who came from far and wide. In a short time, the valley became increasingly crowded, breaking the former tranquility and replacing it with a lively and bustling scene.
However, fate's turmoil seemed far from over. The peaceful days lasted only a short time before a group of unscrupulous bandits, having heard of the area's prosperity, plotted to plunder and shatter this hard-won tranquility. Faced with this sudden crisis, Dongfang Wan'er remained calm and collected, using her exceptional medical knowledge to cleverly concoct poisonous smoke, successfully rendering the bandits unconscious. Ye Jiuchen reacted swiftly, leading his men to bind the unconscious bandits one by one, preparing to punish them severely. But at this crucial moment, Dongfang Wan'er's compassion arose spontaneously. She knew these bandits might have their own helplessness and hardships, so she earnestly persuaded them, reasoning with them and appealing to their emotions, urging them to abandon their evil ways and return to the right path. Under Dongfang Wan'er's influence, the bandits' conscience was awakened, and they ultimately abandoned their evil deeds, choosing to join this warm family and protect the valley together.
From then on, the valley regained its former peace and harmony, even surpassing its former glory. Dongfang Wan'er and the others were finally able to devote themselves wholeheartedly to their respective careers, continuing to study medicine and martial arts, passing on their skills without reservation, bringing blessings to the people of this land, writing their own legendary stories, and making this valley a paradise that people yearn for.
Time flowed by, and several seasons quietly passed. The valley remained a tapestry of blooming flowers and fragrant herbs, a tranquil paradise untouched by the world. However, this serenity was abruptly shattered by an uninvited guest.
It was a scorching afternoon when several villagers hurriedly carried a critically injured patient into the valley. The person on the stretcher was deathly pale, barely breathing, like a candle flickering in the wind, as if he might be extinguished at any moment. His body was covered with strange and gruesome wounds, some of which were bloody and mangled, others were a strange bluish-black color, emitting a nauseating stench of decay.
Upon seeing this, Dongfang Wan'er immediately stepped forward with a grave expression. Her slender fingers gently rested on the injured person's pulse, her brows furrowed, her eyes filled with focus and worry. Time ticked by, and Dongfang Wan'er's face grew increasingly somber. She slowly raised her head and sighed softly, "This injury is unlike anything I've ever seen before; it's extremely difficult to treat." But a resolute glint flashed in her eyes as she secretly resolved to delve deeper into this complex illness and pull the injured person back from the brink of death.
Meanwhile, Ye Jiuchen stepped forward, deciding to venture out to investigate the cause of the illness. He moved with the agility of a cheetah, his steps swift, quickly disappearing into the distance. Along the way, he endured hardship, sleeping in the open and seeking information about this strange injury. Finally, in a bustling market, he heard a chilling rumor: a new type of poison was quietly circulating, and the symptoms of those poisoned were remarkably similar to those of this injured man.
Meanwhile, Dongfang Wan'er in the valley was not idle either. She stayed by the injured man's bedside day and night, consulting ancient medical books and trying one treatment method after another, but all her efforts were in vain. Seeing the injured man's breath growing weaker and weaker, Dongfang Wan'er was extremely anxious. Like an ant on a hot pan, she paced back and forth in the clinic, large beads of sweat rolling down her forehead and soaking her clothes.
Just when everyone was in despair, an unexpected person stepped forward—the bandit who had been reformed years ago. He scratched his head and said hesitantly, "I...I once heard of a rare herb while traveling the world that might be able to cure this poison." Upon hearing this, Dongfang Wan'er's eyes lit up with hope, and she asked eagerly, "Where does this herb grow? Take us there quickly!"
So the group immediately packed their bags and embarked on a difficult journey to find the medicinal herbs, following the bandits. Along the way, they traversed mountains and valleys, hacking through thorns and brambles, encountering countless hardships and dangers. Howling winds nearly knocked them off their feet; torrential rain soaked them to the bone, and the muddy roads made every step incredibly difficult. But they held only one belief in their hearts: to find the herbs and save the wounded!
Finally, atop a steep mountain peak, they found the legendary herb. Dongfang Wan'er carefully picked the herb, holding it in her hands as if it were a priceless treasure. Upon returning to the valley, she immediately went into her medical hut and meticulously prepared the medicine, going through forty-nine steps to finally create the antidote.
As Dongfang Wan'er slowly fed the antidote to the injured man, everyone held their breath, their eyes fixed on him. Time seemed to freeze. After a long while, the injured man's complexion gradually regained some color, and his previously weak breathing became steady and strong. Slowly, he opened his eyes, his gaze filled with the relief of surviving a calamity and overwhelming gratitude towards everyone.
Through this experience, Dongfang Wan'er deeply realized that many unknown diseases awaited their solutions in the world beyond the mountains. Therefore, she and Ye Jiuchen talked all night, discussing countermeasures together. Ultimately, they decided to establish a medical clinic in the valley specifically for treating difficult and complex diseases, pooling everyone's wisdom and strength to jointly overcome medical challenges. Furthermore, they regularly sent people out of the mountains to exchange medical techniques with physicians from the outside world, learning from the strengths of various schools of thought.
As time passed, the valley's reputation grew ever brighter, shining like a dazzling pearl in the world. More and more aspiring individuals, hearing its stories, flocked here, eager to learn medicine and explore its true essence. This once tranquil valley truly became a sacred place for physicians, nurturing generation after generation of outstanding healers. With compassionate hearts and unparalleled medical skills, they resolutely stepped out of the quiet, secluded valley. Their steps were firm and powerful, as if carrying the hopes of all those suffering in the world. These compassionate healers, undeterred by long journeys and hardships, traveled far and wide.
Whether in bustling cities or remote villages, they left their hurried footprints everywhere.
