Pine wood inpatient room

"You know that grandpa once went out with grandpa Huang Gu, fortunately when we went and returned through the deepest part of the frontier forest, we did not encounter any great danger, but as the ancestors told us, the outside world is not a safe place for ordinary people like us, there are not many good things to take, only experience can be harvest as the fruit"

Said Grandpa Ming Qi.

"Uncle Ao Qi used to say that the life of a cultivator is more precious than that of an ordinary person, is that right?"

"Yes, that's right, because after someone became a cultivator, that person is acknowledged by the Great Dao of Human and they are more special, more respected, because they carry the responsibility and duty to protect humans like us, they can be said to be part of the Great Human Dao and that means they must take care of humans like the Great Dao of Human takes care of us all"

The atmosphere was silent for a moment, Shan Yu had a little intermezzo about the words of his grandfather and uncle at one time, his grandfather's words were quite deep, it was difficult for him to digest this understanding.

He thought deeply about the words of his grandfather's sentence about the larger human class out there, while also imagining what would happen if Liang'er became a cultivator too.

"Grandpa, could it be that the reason there are no cultivators in our village is because we are not enough and cannot afford to be acknowledge?"

"Hmm not quite right, more precisely we don't have enough resources here, we are here enough to enjoy life in here by farming and hunting, when humans like us are recognized then the responsibilities and needs will increase, and that cost is expensive"

"Ooh, it's a wonder we don't have a cultivator in the village, surely the family would be overwhelmed to take care of it"

"Hohoho you're right, and we also don't need cultivators here because we live so far away from other humans and also our life here is just fighting common beasts that accidentally enter by simply fighting them with a spear..."

[Knock knock]

A woman of Shan Yu's age, dressed and built almost the same as Shan Yu. She politely approached the two of them and placed the topical cream, and herbs leaves that could be consumed immediately, all carried on a wooden tray and placed on the table on the left side of the bed.

"Su Yan, how is the cost?"

"Herbalist Huang Tian said it's enough to replace one loaf, this compensation is given because of Grandpa Ming's kindness in the past."

"Hohoho, Herbalist Huang is too kind, this old man just did a simple thing, convey my deepest gratitude to him"

Grandpa Ming Qi cupped his hands in front of his chest and faced the nurse, then slightly swayed his head, but was blocked by Su Yan with both hands.

"Ah grandpa, there is no need to be do like that, grandpa is a good and meritorious person for the Wu tribe, Su Yan doesn't deserve this, then Su Yan will go and convey it"

Su Yan returned greetings to Grandpa Ming Qi, then took back the tray then turned around and left the room.

Grandpa Ming Qi and Grandpa Huang Gu were praised by the Wu family as meritorious, it was because they both carried a lot of things back to the village and it was also a coincidence that they were able to leave and return without encountering any major dangers.

Shan Yu then removed the cloth covering Liang'er's head on her left forehead, and applied a cream made from finely ground herbal leaf powder mixed with slightly brownish black honey.

Then Shan Yu boiled water using a hanging water pot, then made 3 porridge bowls with a wooden container that could be used multiple times, after the water in the pot boiled Shan Yu turned off the fire of the fireplace and took the pot using a hand protection cloth.

While Ming Qi's grandfather returned to his reclining chair, he waited for Shan Yu to prepare the wheat porridge and then mixed the wheat porridge with the water cooked in the front fireplace next to Liang'er's bed.

"Grandpa, eat this, you haven't eaten since last night, just looking after Wu Liang without caring about your own stomach"

"Thank you Yu'er, grandpa immediately felt full when i saw Wu Liang improving, but since you have made it, grandpa will just eat that delicious meal"

They both enjoyed it with pleasure, the sound of scooping each part of the contents of the warm porridge, then blowing it so as not to hurt the mouth when eating it, mouthful after mouthful is done, and there are often scenes of exhaling hot breath from the mouth when inserting porridge because of not blowing hot porridge on the spoon.

"It's almost noon, Shan Yu is going to work first"

"Alright, Keep up the spirit Shan Yu"

Shan Yu left the room while carrying the set of tableware that had just been used and put them all in the kitchen section of the health center.

A medium-sized room made of pine wood that grows in the first layer of the border forest, a room with a wooden entrance in the corner of the room to the left of the bed.

To the right of the entrance were two reclining chairs that had carvings similar to the bed Wu Liang was lying on, with a large single-legged table supporting everything on it.

Then further to the right, in another corner of the room was a low rectangular cabinet where spare blankets were stored.

The scent of Wu Liang's wheat porridge still filled half of this room, it was placed to the left of the bed on a four-legged box table, along with some mountain figures and a roofless house.

On the right side of the bed, there is an ordinary square window with curtain frames on the left and right of a dark green color with a slightly rough texture, waving softly in the valley breeze that rose and passed through every crevice on Mount Wu this morning.

Shan Yu's grandfather, Ming Qi's grandfather as he was called by the Wu tribe villagers, was not only praised for his contributions during his youth, but also for teaching the Wu tribe village children to read with the guidebook he brought to the village.

"Ahh, it's been hundreds of full moons, no no, even more thousands of full moons have passed, I'm old, but still my youthful memories have not changed and disappeared, I still miss you my wife"

Grandpa Ming Qi leaned back fully, and sighed heavily as his mind wandered, retracing the ropes of memory and knitting them one by one, then trying to relive the moments when he was still with his wife.

"Well, that's life, our love meeting is based on the promise of life and death, it's also useless if I Ming Qi is still mourning the past, it's better to read a book hehehe"

The fake smile expression that tried to replace the sad and nostalgic expression gradually managed to convince her face to remain cheerful, and finally fully immersed in reading the book.

Although he finally knew, he himself was holding back the tears in both corners of his eyes, he was old, and he had also always tried to expand his heart and expand his chest but it was useless it was also vulnerable like glass.

Grandpa Ming Qi, His old life can only mourn the beautiful past, living alone when the life partner has already left us
