Chapter 161 Mountain Village
A figure floated on the water, letting the river wash away it.
Just go with the flow, wherever you go.
By the river, a few beautiful figures were chatting and laughing, with smiles on their faces.
"Ah man."
Suddenly, one of the Huansha girls screamed, and the others looked in the direction she pointed.
There is a man in the middle of the water, drifting with the river, not knowing whether he is alive or dead.
Seeing this kind of scene for the first time, no wonder they were shocked.
"He floated over."
In their frightened voices, the man floated in front of them with the river water.
At this time, you can clearly see the other party's appearance, which is quite handsome.
"He won't die."
One of them picked up a dead branch and poked him. When there was no movement, he asked whether he was dead.
"No, he is still alive." A girl came closer and put her hand under the man's nose, feeling the sound of breathing and confirming that the man was not dead.
"Then what should we do? Carry him back?"
"Yes, yes, this man's clothes are too strange. I have never seen him before. Where did he come from?"
"Let's take him to my house. My father is a doctor and should be able to save him."
"Wanwan, isn't this too dangerous?"
"You can't just ignore death."
"..."
In the end, they worked together and brought this man to an isolated village. At this time, smoke was rising from the roof.
The village is not big, with only about a hundred households. The village is surrounded by mountains on three sides, with only one road leading to the river. There are a large number of terraced fields in front of and behind the houses, and there are flocks of cattle and sheep.
It is like a paradise, living an ordinary life of working at sunrise and resting at sunset.
On this day, an accident broke the tranquility here.
Those girls picked up a man by the river and brought him into the village. They had settled here for generations and had never seen any outsiders appear. They immediately attracted a crowd of people to watch.
"Doctor Shi, how is he?"
This Doctor Shi is Wanwan's father and the only doctor in the village. If there is anything wrong with him, everyone will go to him to see him. This has been the case for so many years.
"It's nothing serious, and his body is very strange. He is healing quickly. He can wake up even without my intervention," Dr. Shi said.
"Doctor Shi will take action, everything will be fine."
"Then how are we going to settle him? It won't bring us any danger."
This is what they are most worried about. If this person's arrival brings big trouble to everyone, they don't want to see it.
"How about staying at Doctor Shi's house?"
"Do you want to kill Dr. Shi? Who knows if he will suddenly become ill."
"Everyone, stop arguing, just let him stay with me." Doctor Shi said.
Why doesn't he know what everyone is worried about?
But the doctor is kind-hearted. When a patient appears in front of him, is there any reason not to save him? And you can’t beat someone to death with a stick, and you can’t turn people away just because you have suspicions.
"Doctor Shi, if anything happens, please notify us as soon as possible and we will come immediately."
After they finished speaking, they left one by one. It was not like they had nothing to do. There were still so many fields waiting to be cultivated.
"Wanwan, go and make a bowl of medicinal soup." Shi Zhiyuan said.
Shi Zhiyuan is his name. Generally speaking, everyone prefers to call him Dr. Shi.
As for the Huansha girl, her name was Shi Wanwan, she was about eighteen years old, and she was tall and graceful.
The village is called Mountain Village. People here have called the village this way throughout the ages. The specific origin cannot be studied.
There are only about a hundred households in total, with about four to five hundred people.
The population has never been able to increase. It has almost remained around this number. It will not reach 600 at most and no less than 400 at least. There is a unique atmosphere of life here.
Work with the sunrise and sleep with the sunset.
There are no great monks who have moved mountains and reclaimed seas, let alone know what cultivation is.
Farming with cattle, hunting with long bows, and fishing with nets are very ancient crafts.
Even the medical skills were gradually understood through tasting hundreds of herbs. After years of accumulation, they became the Shi family’s ancestral medical skills. Even if it became popular, no one would be able to learn it.
What kind of skills the people here and their ancestors mastered are still the same in their generation.
The river outside flows in an unknown direction. The furthest point they reach is the mountains around the village. Beyond that, there are endless streams. Outside the streams, they are shrouded in mist, which they call A cursed place, once you enter it, you will never come out again.
Those who naturally die of old age will end up in the misty mountains.
From being born in nature to returning to nature, this is their way of life.
Unknowingly, half a month has passed since that person came here, and there was no sign of waking up. The busy farming season has arrived, and everyone is so busy that they almost forget that person exists.
However, a few little girls in the village often walked there.
Not for anything else, just for the wishful husband.
This year, there are many young people of school age in the mountain village, but there are fewer men than women. Naturally, there are still some who have not found their ideal person.
Of course, there are also unmarried young people who are also choosing their own lovers.
Among them, the one with the most pursuers is Shi Wanwan. Not only because of her outstanding appearance, but also because of her status as a medical family, most young people are attracted to her.
this day.
"My daughter is still young. We will discuss this matter another day." Shi Zhiyuan said.
Another person who came to propose marriage was turned away. Even though he brought a generous betrothal gift, he was still driven away ruthlessly.
"Okay, Doctor Shi, I'll come back next time."
There have been several cases like this in the past half month.
"Dad, just tell them that it's better if I don't get married. I'm always bothering people by running around." Shi Wanwan said.
You can't delay others because of yourself.
This makes me feel uncomfortable.
"Wanwan, the girl's family will get married sooner or later. If I come forward, no one will dare to propose marriage in the future. Do you want to be alone for the rest of your life?" Shi Zhiyuan said.
Indeed, he stated that it was a very simple matter.
After all, the orders of parents and the words of matchmakers are an important criterion for determining the fate of these young men and women. It is impossible to say for sure, but once they say it, they will basically have to die alone.
"But……"
"Stop it, go dry the medicine and go see him. Logically speaking, it's time for him to wake up." Shi Zhiyuan said.
The person in his mouth is naturally the comatose young man. If there is still the breath of life, the symptoms of being comatose for half a month can scare people to death. What kind of illness can't wake up after half a month? Unless It's a vegetative state.
