Chapter 578 Trouble (3)_1
Seeing her speaking so methodically to a wild beast, Doctor Du couldn’t help but chuckle, just about to say it couldn’t understand human language, when the next moment, he saw those golden eyes shooting directly towards him. After sizing him up, the beast even nodded slightly, leaving Doctor Du wide-eyed and tongue-tied, taking a long time to regain his composure. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com
Observing this, Mo Yan commented indifferently with an extremely pretentious remark, "Grandpa Du, ’all things have a spirit.’ This Golden Beast is rarely seen, and having grown up in the deep mountains, it’s not impossible for it to have lived many years and developed Spiritual Wisdom!"
A glimmer of deep thought crossed Doctor Du’s eyes as he nodded in agreement, "The old man has indeed made a mountain out of a molehill. Since it can understand human speech, I no longer need to worry about being bitten by it, ha ha!" Towards the end, he joked in high spirits.
Seeing that the Golden Beast was willing to cooperate, Mo Yan breathed a sigh of relief and laughed, "It knows that you can help it!"
After speaking, she moved a chair next to the wooden hut and asked Doctor Du to sit and examine the Golden Beast’s injuries. It was best to cure the creature as soon as possible and have it return to the mountains, as keeping it home was not ideal.
However, the injuries of the Golden Beast were more serious than Mo Yan had imagined. After a thorough inspection, Doctor Du discovered it not only had an infection that caused a high fever but also suffered significant internal damage. If it weren’t for its exceptional resilience, it would probably have been dead for good!
After all, Doctor Du was not a veterinarian. He could only prescribe some medicine based on the injuries of the Golden Beast, which would not cause side effects, doubling the usual adult dosage. If the effects were not apparent or too strong, he would adjust the dosage accordingly.
Mo Yan took note of everything. Seeing that Little Flower’s spacious wooden hut was now so cramped it barely had a gap left, she could almost imagine Little Flower’s furious outburst and decided to temporarily keep the three beasts in Space, not wanting her home to become a battlefield of ferocious beasts!
Doctor Du personally changed the Golden Beast’s dressings and tried boiling a dose of fever-reducing medicine for it to drink. Seeing that the Golden Beast’s temperature had dropped significantly, he was reassured. He handed the remaining packets of fever medicine to Mo Yan, gave her a few instructions, and then picked up his medicine chest to leave.
Mo Yan had originally planned to prepare a feast for Doctor Du and send him home in a carriage but was refused by Doctor Du.
Unable to make him stay, Mo Yan found an excuse to return to her bedroom and brought out a bunch of different kinds of dried medicinal herbs from Space.
All these herbs were overgrown in the fields, dug up by her to dry, and were all set to be sold to Doctor Du. It didn’t feel quite appropriate to give him a consultation fee for his visit that day; it would be better to give him these half-sold, half-gifted herbs.
Seeing these high-quality herbs, Doctor Du was very pleased. He paid half the market price in Silver Coin, smiling contentedly as he accepted them.
Although the two did not have the name of master and disciple, they indeed had the reality of it. Sometimes being too calculative can strain the relationship.
After loading the herbs onto the carriage, Mo Yan sent Doctor Du back to the city. By the time she got home, the sun had set, and it was then that Yang Bao came to the door.
Yang Bao stammered out his purpose for visiting. Mo Yan nodded in understanding. The Golden Beast was not an ordinary cat or dog but a dangerous beast that could harm people. It was normal for the villagers to fear and reject it. At the same time, she felt embarrassed for troubling the village chief.
"Uncle Yang, I was actually planning to talk to you about this matter!" Inviting Yang Bao inside to sit down, Mo Yan brewed a cup of tea for him and said, "The reason the wild beast followed me down the mountain is that it was seriously injured and needed temporary help. Once its injuries are healed, it will go back to the mountains. I will make sure it is well looked after during this time and won’t let it wander into the village and hurt anyone. You can rest assured about this, Uncle Yang."
