Chapter 8 Unwilling to apprentice?

Black blood flowed from the wound.

Fang Qingshi quickly tied Ji Ranchen's thighs with a rope, trying to slow down the spread of the poison as much as possible.

The black blood from the wound was squeezed out, and then the herbs were smashed with stones to form foam, which was then applied to the wound.

Even though she found her mentor half a month in advance, she was still worried when she saw such a serious injury.

When Fang Jing'an came to the cave, he was also shocked by the injury. He asked Fang Qingshi to light a fire, take out the silver needles to detoxify, and use mountain spring water to clean the wound.

Just when the three brothers and sisters were busy together, Ji Ranchen woke up.

"Old man, please drink some water first. It's getting late. Can I carry you down the mountain?" Fang Jing'an asked.

Ji Ranchen nodded: "Thank you so much."

"Yes, it is my duty to treat illnesses and save people." Fang Jing'an cut off half of the hem of Ji Ranchen's robe and bandaged his injured leg.

As he carried Ji Ranchen out of the cave, Fang Qinghe pulled Fang Qingshi: "Sister, the ginseng is still there."

With her eldest brother around, Fang Qingshi felt at ease. When she encountered ginseng, she had no intention of letting it go. The two sisters stayed on the mountain to get the ginseng.

Ginseng is not a beautiful product, but it is definitely a treasure in the mountain. The two sisters put the ginseng away and quickly went down the mountain to chase Fang Jing'an.

It was not easy to go down the mountain. Fang Jing'an was soaked all over. The two sisters put all the rice and food that their eldest brother had brought back into their backpacks. The sun was about to set when the group arrived home.

Seeing someone at the door from a distance, Fang Qingshi curled up into a sneer. Even if he couldn't see clearly, he could guess that the person at the door must be Li Jinghe.

"Sister-in-law!" Li Jinghe stood up immediately when he saw the person: "I'm here to take sister-in-law home."

"Are you blind? Didn't you see that you were going to save people?" Fang Qinghe pushed Li Jinghe away, opened the door and let his eldest brother carry him in first, blocking Li Jinghe who was about to enter: "My sister is very sad. She has to stay at her parents' house for two days.

Slow down, go back and tell your mother that she won't let him go!"

How could Li Jinghe be willing? He pushed the door hard and said, "Sister, I'll be waiting for you in the morning. My mother said that I must take my sister-in-law back today."

Fang Qingshi put the medicine basket on the ground and said calmly: "Jinghe, we are all going to the mountains to collect medicines to raise money. You should go back and explain to your mother that I will be back in two or three days."

"Sister-in-law." Li Jinghe wiped away tears: "Li Changming's daughter-in-law is very fierce. She went to the house early in the morning to cause trouble. In the end, she took away all the land deeds from the house. Those villagers wanted to occupy our house."

Fang Qingshi knew that it was impossible for the Min family to wait for the old Li family to repay the money, so he said softly: "Are you stupid? Your eldest brother allowed their family to exempt themselves from taxes for four years. Li Changming's family has twenty-five acres of land, one acre of land

If you can harvest sixteen bushels of corn, how much silver is half the tax? It's been four years, isn't it worth five taels of silver?"

Li Jinghe looked at Fang Qingshi blankly.

Fang Qingshi frowned: "Why don't you go back and tell our mother? Where is the debt your eldest brother owes to them? It's just the benefits they promised to your eldest brother."

Li Jinghe stamped his foot: "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

"I figured it out after thinking about it all day." Fang Qingshi said in a low voice.

Li Jinghe stopped talking nonsense with Fang Qingshi. He knew that she was collecting medicines for money at home, and he wished that if she didn't go back, there would be one less person to eat, and the two of the Fang family could work together to make money for the family.

Fang Qinghe looked at Sister and dismissed Li Jinghe with just a few words. He looked at Sister suspiciously and felt that what she just said was instigation.

"Latch, let's make something to eat quickly." Fang Qingshi brought Latch in his arms.

Fang Qinghe closed the door, bolted it, and then turned around: "Sister, do you want Li Jinghe to go home and make trouble?"

Fang Qingshi chuckled: "Well, my Qinghe is smart, come in quickly."

In the room, Fang Jing'an was cleaning the wound carefully and picked out more than a dozen wool needles from the blackened flesh. This kind of wool needle is named because of its small size. It is the most precious kind of women's embroidery needles and is tempered with highly toxic needles.

Come to kill people, Fang Jing'an has never seen this kind of method.

"Brother, I made meat porridge, can you give me some for the old man?" Fang Qingshi said and glanced at his mentor who was still unconscious.

Fang Jing'an whispered: "This person's identity may be unusual, and I can't cure this poison. It's only right to send him away as soon as possible."

"Yeah." Fang Qingshi nodded.

Fang Jingyan took a silver needle and gently pricked the Renzhong point. Ji Ranchen opened his eyes and saw the shabby but neat house. His eyes fell on Fang Qingshi who was holding a black pottery bowl, and his stomach suddenly growled.

Several times, this simply made Ji Ranchen feel ashamed.

"I'm going to make some medicine." Fang Jingyan knew that such a serious injury would require medicine, so she would prepare Jiedu Powder. She wasn't sure whether it would be useful or not, but it was better than nothing.

Watching his eldest brother go out, Fang Qingshi put the bowl on the small table next to him, took the quilt and put it behind Ji Ranchen: "Eat something to gain strength."

Fang Qingshi sat next to him and stretched out his posture to feed him.

Ji Ranchen quickly stretched out his hand to take it: "Excuse me, little lady."

"If you don't mind, just call me Qingshi." Fang Qingshi sat next to him: "Your injury is too serious. My elder brother wants to take you to the county hospital."

Ji Ranchen paused while lowering his head to eat. He quickly finished the meat porridge in the bowl and placed the bowl on the table next to him: "No need, let him in and I'll teach him."

Fang Qingshi was overjoyed. When he came out with the bowl, his lips were filled with smiles. This was exactly what he wanted. The eldest brother was obsessed with curing diseases and saving people, but the Fang family's ancestral medical skills were not superb, so being able to worship this master would be the real thing.

The future is limitless.

"Brother, please come in." Fang Qingshi walked up to Fang Jing'an and whispered.

Fang Jing'an put down the herbs in his hand and looked back at the house where Ji Ranchen lived, then he hummed and turned around.

In the kitchen, the two sisters put the food on the small table, and Fang Qingshi prepared a bowl of meat porridge and placed it next to it.

"Sister, let's go sell the ginseng tomorrow, what do you think?" Fang Qinghe couldn't help but feel happy, ginseng!

I learned about medicinal herbs when I was five years old, but I haven’t encountered a ginseng in seven years. This is great luck!

"Don't worry, we are not in a hurry to spend money. Let brother dry the ginseng and store it. It will be put to great use in the future. By then, the price will be more than what the drug store gives." Fang Qingshi looked up.

The eldest brother came out thoughtfully, carrying another bowl of meat porridge to Ji Ranchen.

When my mentor in my previous life taught me how to make incense, he said that his medical and poison skills would be lost. Now that my eldest brother can learn medical skills, I want to learn poison skills, but I don't know if that's possible.

Ji Ranchen looked up when he heard the footsteps and saw Fang Qingshi coming in. A look of disappointment flashed in his eyes. Could it be that this boy didn't want to become his disciple?
