Chapter 664: Chapter 667: Applying Medicine
In the afternoon, Su Tang carefully packaged all the foraged herbal medicine, distinguishing each bunch clearly in terms of its usage and dosage.
She then enlisted the help of Yadang and Gaiyin in building a stove where they would gently steam Aunt Jin Se’s eyes with herbal medicine, in the process, Su Tang advised Suo Long on what to be mindful of.
When the time was right, Su Tang removed the herbal paste, and cleaned the remnants around the eye socket with a clean piece of saturated beast skin.
Suo Long immediately leaned in, with a look of anticipation, he asked Jin Se, "How do you feel?"
Jin Se opened her eyes. Although everything in front of her was just as blurry as before, there seemed to be a subtle change.
After some careful consideration, she realized her eyes no longer felt arid and numbingly painful.
Jin Se nodded happily, "It works! Doctor’s medicine is very good, my eyes feel warm, it is very comforting."
Suo Long also broke into a relieved smile, "As long as it works, that’s all that matters."
Su Tang discarded the remnants of the herbs by burning them in the stove. She smiled slightly, "These herbs are all pretty gentle, they will not stimulate the eyes. Hence the slow effectiveness. Don’t worry, as long as you consistently apply the medicine, the situation will definitely improve day by day."
Suo Long was so excited that he didn’t know what to say. Clenching and unclosing his fists, he stuttered, "Thank you, Doctor. If there’s anything I can help you with, do not hesitate to ask."
Chi Yu was also exuberantly thrilled.
He chimed in, "Yes, if you need any help, don’t hesitate to ask. I will mobilize the entire Sky Fox Clan to assist you!" 𝚗𝚘v𝚙𝚞b.𝚌𝚘m
All these seasons, the doctors from their tribe were helpless in treating Jin Se’s eyes. They could only watch her condition worsen. To their surprise, a single medicine by the young woman received praise from Jin Se.
It seems her medical skills were indeed remarkable. If only she could stay here.
Such a pity... sigh...
Su Tang smiled shyly, "I’m just doing my duty. You don’t have to call me Doctor, you can call me by my name, Su Tang."
"What a beautiful name, Su Tang. Then I will call you Tangtang, is that okay?" Jin Se looked towards Su Tang.
Su Tang nodded with a smile, "Of course."
Even though Jin Se could not discern Su Tang’s face, from her figure and sweet voice, Jin Se was sure she must be a ravishing young woman.
They lingered there for a while longer.
Gaiyin glanced at the darkening sky, he calmly announced, "It’s getting late, we should get going."
Yadang got up. He looked at Suo Long and Jin Se, "Uh, we’d better get going, we’ll come to see you two tomorrow."
Jin Se seemed a bit reluctant to part, but she didn’t insist on them staying. She nodded, "Be careful, I heard that jackal beasts come out to hunt on the flatland at night."
Yadang responded in a low voice, "Don’t worry, we are all very formidable, we won’t get hurt."
Jin Se looked filled with apprehension, her lips moved slightly but in the end, she said nothing more.
Suo Long suggested that Chi Yu and the rest walk with them until they get near the Ming Deer Clan, then they could part ways. No one objected.
Only after they had disappeared into the distance did Jin Se reluctantly withdraw her gaze, even though she couldn’t see anything.
Suo Long noticed that there was something wrong with Jin Se. He pulled her into his arms and asked quietly, "What’s the matter? We’ve found the cub and your eyes can be treated. Aren’t you happy?"
