Deeper than the scars

The sunlight began to reappear brightly, illuminating the wet and lush wilderness landscape, breaking through the dark and gloomy clouds, becoming the main source of light for everyone.

"Everyone's feeling better, right?" said Uncle Ao Qi, warming his body while the other uncles, Hei Xing and Hei Tai, waited for Uncle Ao Qi, and responded to questions.

The breeze was not as severe as before, but it still gave a slight chill, now everyone was half-dry, uncle Feng Ge, uncle Yong Chun, and Hei Xing had nothing on their bodies, as well as uncle Ao Qi, uncle Su Meng, and Hei Tai, they also took off their clothes.

Now all six returned to the village without their tops on.

*****

A while before.

"Ge Wuan, the day is winding down let's let them go again, while it's not too late and there are still sheep to take care of" uncle Jin Hao said from outside and opened the barn door of the sheep pen.

Bundles of fat sheep with soft white fluffy light, filled every space inside the barn, looking like a sea of clouds inside.

"Wow, looks like we will all be eating lamb this time, what a coincidence that there will be an event hehehe" murmured uncle Jin Hao as he watched the sheep coming out of the barn and wandering in the surrounding pasture.

From the right side slightly behind the area of the light soft white fleece sheep, there was a barn that was being taken care of by uncle Ge Wuan.

He also opened the barn, thinking that since it wasn't too late, the cows could still roam around and enjoy the evening.

"Ge Wuan, get ready tomorrow, I guess if it's true that Wu Jin Fei's welcoming ceremony is tomorrow, we should be asked to slaughter a sheep this afternoon" Uncle Jin Hao shouted as he leaned his body with the help of his left elbow, looking at Uncle Ge Wuan who was riding one of the cows.

The cow also looked calm and friendly, not rebelling at all to uncle Ge Wuan.

"Huh, if it had been my turn to ride, they would have gotten angry right away, they freak" muttered uncle jin Hao, looking at uncle Ge Wuan from afar.

While biting the clay grass at the corner of his mouth, uncle Jin Hao swept his gaze across the meadow where his sheep were, but suddenly he saw the silhouette of a person running from the end of the road from his eyes.

"Oh my, for heaven's sake" said uncle Jin Hao, his body stiffened in shock, he didn't know what happened, but one thing was certain in his mind, now the situation was an emergency.

"HEY!!! GE WUAN, HELP THEM!" shouted uncle Jin Hao as he turned around and faced uncle Ge Wuan who was training his cow.

Uncle Ge Wuan would have been a little surprised to hear that, but from where he was now he also saw what uncle Jin Hao saw.

While riding his cow, uncle Ge Wuan broke through the guardrail and broke it violently.

"Oh my, don't do that when you go out, argh forget it" said uncle Jin Hao seeing Ge Wuan's action just now.

Uncle Ge Wuan and his cow galloped along, his long hair fluttering, as well as the dark blue ribbon strands of his headband.

His body bent straight, both hands hugging the cow's neck, a moment later he finally reached Uncle Bei Shen's place, stopped the cow's footsteps and told him to give the dying Uncle Cang Yan.

Uncle Cang Yan's body was deteriorating, his body was shivering violently, his face was pale blue-white, his eyes were closed, his breathing was weak, and his hair was stiff and disheveled.

"Hurry up and get him up!" Uncle Ge Wuan said, extending his hand, telling Uncle Bei Shen to give the dying Uncle Cang Yan a layer of the Wu tribe's damp blue set of clothes.

Uncle Ge Wuan immediately left at a fast pace with Uncle Cang Yan behind, who was tied up tightly so as not to fall.

With no hands, no legs from below the knees to the tips of the toes, only the pale blue head to thighs were dying, cold, full of suffering and pain.

"You're strong Cang Yan, don't faint yet," Ge Wuan's uncle shouted.

Uncle Cang Yan could only remain silent, he could not do much, even blinking was difficult.

"What happened, tell me!" said uncle Jin Hao loudly, his face wide-eyed.

Uncle Bei Shen, and uncle Hong Ling were silent.

Uncle Jin Hao could only remain silent as he watched the departure of Uncle Ge Wuan who carried Uncle Cang Yan while riding a cow.

"That guy really is a cow king" muttered Uncle Jin Hao, holding his mouth.

Through the muddy road, running on the uphill country road, leaving heavy cow footprints, carrying two adults, to the health center.

The aunts around the road were instantly shocked by the scene just now.

"Huang Tian, Huang Tian!!!" Ge Wuan's uncle shouted, as he arrived in front of the health center.

Hearing the resounding shout, Huang Tian clearly came out of his place.

"Gosh, quickly enter uncle!" Huang Tian said hurriedly while preparing to grab uncle Cang Yan's body.

Uncle Ge Wuan stopped right in front of the door of the medical center, then got down slowly after untying the clothes on his body, while carefully lowering uncle Cang Yan's body.

The two of them then lifted Cang Yan into the front room on the right, where Wu Liang used to be yesterday.

"Be careful, uncle Cang Yan is in shock but fortunately uncle Cang Yan is strong" Huang Tian said as he held the cut knee and uncle Ge Wuan held uncle Cang Yan by his armpit.

"Okay, one two three, the explanation will be later uncle, now please get the clean cloth in the closet and behind, as well as the herb box that I keep behind in the upper cabinet" said Huang Tian.

Uncle Ge Wuan of course immediately said yes, without further ado left the room, passed through a hallway with several doors leading to other rooms, and then reached the back of the health center.

Walking to the right, Uncle Ge Wuan searched for herbs in the top hanging cupboard, underneath the cupboard was a table that held stacks of plates, bowls, glasses, and jars of honey and bread.

Uncle Ge Wuan then walked to the left of the room, finding a cupboard full of clean cloths stacked neatly, the cloth was similar to the white underwear set of the Wu tribe, after everything was collected, Uncle Ge Wuan immediately ran a little back to the room.

"Here, everything is ready" Uncle Cang Yan said while hugging the cloth and his hands holding two herbal boxes.

Huang Tian who saw it immediately told him to just put it on the table next to the bed.

"Gosh, if you p bring her in sooner, it would have been very difficult to help him." Huang Tian said, opening the layers of cloth, and at the same time opening all the cloth covering uncle Cang Yan's body until there was no more cloth covering uncle Cang Yan's body.

His condition was terrible and bad, from top to bottom his skin was pale blue, his fur was shabby, the smell was also fishy blood and a mixture of the thin smell of mold that was still attached.

Huang Tian then took a fresh cloth, cleaned around the cut wounds on his right and left hands, then covered them well and dressed him, fortunately uncle Cang Yan was no longer shivering too much.

Huang Tian then concocted the herbs seasoning for Cang Yan uncle.

2 water frog leaves

1 berry with fingered twigs

5 leaves of night mountain azalea

4 twilight orange rhododendron leaves

The ingredients were all pounded by Huang Tian together, the leaves were pounded soft and smooth, revealing the blackened part when the water frog leaves were pounded and releasing a little dark green liquid that was not too liquid, odorless.

Then 1 berry from a tree that each branch is like a human finger, because it has 5 segments of stalk branches, after mixing the leaves and berries it gives a distinctive light fragrant aroma, the berry cannot be eaten directly but if mixed with other ingredients, its properties will appear and can be used to cure infections that are not severe.

Then add more night mountain azalea leaves, its use is to suppress pain, these leaves have been used for generations in Wu tribe villages, but should not be used too often or beyond the dosage, said physician Huang, excessive use can cause illusion.

Then 4 Rhododendron leaves, these palm-wide leaves were used by Huang Tian to cover Cang Yan's uncle's wound because they have a slightly chewy, soft, and smooth texture on top, and can also relieve pain caused by infection.

Then the 3 ingredients at the beginning were mixed, mashed in an ordinary bowl, after rubbing the mixture of 3 ingredients and covered with Rhododendron leaves, finally the first prevention was successful, Cang Yan's uncle was completely no longer shivering, his thin expression that seemed to endure the pain also faded slowly.

"For now it's enough, it takes time to give him more medicine, thank you uncle Ge Wuan" Huang Tian said to uncle Ge Wuan who was standing beside him on his right.

"Huang Tian has saved his life, all of you uncles only delivered him, Huang Tian should be the one who receives thanks" replied uncle Ge Wuan.

"Then we all saved him, for the story later uncle, I will go first to look for things in the kitchen, if you want, uncle accompany uncle Cang Yan first, I say goodbye uncle"

Uncle Ge Wuan just nodded in response.

Seeing uncle Cang Yan in this condition, who wouldn't feel sorry for him? Even Grandpa Zhou would have sympathy, I guess.

"You haven't lived long, but have already suffered like this, now Cang Yan, you won't live like you used to and will suffer for the rest of your life, the rest of your life will probably be like Hong Xiao" murmured uncle Ge Wuan who sat down after bringing his reclining chair to the left side of uncle Cang Yan's bed.
