"Hey, little doctor, thank you. If it wasn't for you, I'm afraid your foot wouldn't have recovered."
"It's fine. Auntie, you go back and drink two more pills. As long as you don't overwork yourself in the future, there won't be any problems."
There was a small door in a quiet alley. On the door, there was a flag with the word 'Pharmacy' written crookedly on it. A long line of people lined up in front of the medicine store. There was only a table and two chairs in the shabby shop. A handsome young man stood up and supported a middle-aged woman who was busy bowing to him.
As the young man spoke, he let go of the middle-aged woman and carefully picked up the prescription on the table, passing it to the middle-aged woman, "I've already modified this prescription. For your current symptoms, don't use the prescription the previous two times. If you follow this recipe to the medicine store and grab the medicine, two pieces will be enough. "After you finish eating, if you're still worried, you can come find me and have a look."
"Good, good, good. Thank you so much, little doctor. Gu Xiaoxue, you really are my savior. If it wasn't for you, if I couldn't leave now, what would happen to my family in the future? "
The middle-aged woman's face was filled with gratitude. At the same time, she couldn't help but rub her tears.
Her husband had left early, leaving her parents-in-law and her two young children in her care.
In order to take care of her family, she could only work day and night, but somehow, two years ago, her feet had started to become a little disobedient, and in the past year, just walking a little bit would cause her to be in excruciating pain. If it wasn't for the kind and skilled doctor here, she would have come here to take a look.
When she thought that if she could not move her feet, her entire family would starve to death, and the middle-aged woman could no longer hold back her tears.
Helping the middle-aged woman to the door, he did not forget to remind her, "This illness of yours, it's all because of you working too hard, and you haven't been treated in time because of the cold energy. But you don't have to worry, with acupuncture and Chinese medicine, your legs are more or less healed."
"Mm, mm, thank you, Little Doctor Gu …"
When the middle-aged woman heard that her legs were fine, she excitedly thanked him. However, she tactfully left the room in order to not delay the others.
There were already a lot of people waiting outside, most of them were just rumors. Everyone knew that there was a doctor in the alley who had great medical skills, and he was also a good person. The fees were also very reasonable.
"Ai, Doctor Gu is such a good person."
"That's right, that's right. If it weren't for Gu Xiaoxian, the family would really be in trouble in the future."
"This Gu Xiaoxue is really young. I remember half a month ago, she couldn't walk when we saw her. This sister-in-law's family can walk by themselves in this short span of half a month. How amazing."
"That's right, that's right!"
The people waiting to see the doctor were all envious of the middle-aged woman. Many of them recognized the cleaner. When they saw that her legs were fine, they all became excited. With this, those who had been waiting impatiently continued to wait patiently …
"Next!"
Oh, how tired!
Nona stretched her neck and took a deep breath. She rubbed her eyes and called for the next person to come in.
She didn't think that this business would be so popular. In the beginning, she just wanted to give it a try, but she didn't really think about how big it would be, so she specially looked for a remote place. Her face wasn't that big of a deal, she just wanted to see what the value of love in this space was.
Five years ago, due to the death of the happy youth, she had a trace of weariness and weariness in her heart. She didn't know how to face those people, so she wanted to walk around by herself and look around. Before she left, she gave one third of the food in her space to Situ Jin. Initially, she only wanted to repay Situ Jin's kindness. Since she was leaving, she didn't know when she would return. As someone who owed someone else, she didn't feel good in her heart.
He had paid off all his debts, so he was relieved to be gone.
Even if they never saw each other again in this life, there was nothing to be worried about.
However, she would never have thought that after separating from Situ Jin for two to three months, the value of her love in space would suddenly skyrocket.
The sudden increase scared her.
The space continued to rise. She was shocked and her first thought was that there was something wrong with the food she gave Situ Jin. She was so excited that she couldn't care less about looking around. She wanted to ask Situ Jin about it, but … But for some reason, she was suddenly sucked into the space …
Then she fell into a deep sleep. When she woke up, she found that she had changed. There was no more pustules on her face. She had also grown up a lot. She was surprised. His first thought was to find Situ Xi and ask her what was going on, but who would've thought …
She had only slept in the space, but it had been five years since she had come out.
Five years...
Her Adept was stunned.
She didn't know how many things she could change in five years …
At that moment, even she was stunned.
It had been five years, but everything had changed. Back then, Situ Jin was only a 16-17 year old teenager. After five years had passed, he should have already been over 20 years old.
It was already very late for people of this era to get married at the age of seventeen or eighteen, and it was only with Situ Jin's identity … Even though she still didn't know who he was, he definitely wasn't an ordinary person … He had gone to search for it in such a reckless manner …
And how difficult it would be to find someone you'd met five years ago in the sea of people.
In the end, she only thought that Situ Jin said that he would return to the capital, which meant that he was someone from there.
That was why she had travelled all the way to the capital.
But... However, when she arrived at the capital, she realized that her thoughts were really too simple. Although this ancient city was not as big as a modern city, its population was not that large either. However, it was still more than enough. The number of people in the capital was at least a few hundred thousand. Finding a single person was easier said than done.
Furthermore, she wasn't familiar with the capital city at all, so she didn't even have a chance to ask about it.
In the end, she found a place like this to open a small clinic. While thinking about how to continue looking for Situ Jin, she also tried to find out what was the reason for her love.
On the way to the capital, she had tried to send some food to the people on the way. The value of her heart had changed, but it had only increased by one or two points.
"Where are you feeling uncomfortable? Tell me about your symptoms first."
Rubbing her glabella and forcing herself to stay alert, Nona did not know how many times she had spoken.
I can't take it anymore, the patient seems to be getting more and more sick every day.
In the beginning, she didn't think that there would be so many patients and the herbs prepared weren't enough. It was only a few minutes and the herbs she prepared were already empty, but not only did the number of patients not decrease, instead there were more and more. Finally, she had no choice but to prescribe a prescription for those people to go to another medicine store to get more and more herbs.
Her herbs were grown in the space and this sleep of hers lasted for five years. During these five years, she did not know what had happened and there were not many herbs stored in the space, so there was nothing she could do about it.
But...
It seemed like he couldn't continue like this just because of the prescription. If he continued like this, he would die sooner or later.
Thinking of this, Nona quickly decided that after seeing this patient today, she would not look anymore. Starting from tomorrow, she would begin to limit the number of patients she could see.
If he continued to endure like this, the patient would be fine and he would be the first to recover from his illness.
"Eh? "What's wrong?"
After waiting for a long time and not waiting for the patient to speak, Nona raised her head in puzzlement.
In front of the table stood a youth who was not much better than the table. His face was yellow and his muscles were thin. His pair of eyes were big as if he would not be able to raise them for a long time.
He quietly stood in front of the crowd and saw himself looking up, his shrivelled face filled with unease.
Jiu Niang raised an eyebrow and asked doubtfully, "Little brat, what's the matter?"
Traditional Chinese medicine was about hearing things and asking questions. Since she was a child, she had studied under her grandfather and could tell with a single glance. Although this youth was a bit thin, he shouldn't have any major ailments.
But... How long had it been since she'd seen such a thin child?
It seemed like … It seems like since that time in the Wasteland …
She didn't know why, but when she looked at the child in front of her, she would immediately think back to that disaster …
Although for many people that kick was five years ago, for many children they don't even remember what happened five years ago.
However, all of this felt like it happened the day before to Jiu Niang. She had only slept, and after waking up, five years had mysteriously passed.
Although half a year had already passed, she still couldn't completely accept it.
"I, I …" I am not... I'm not here to see a doctor. "
The youth looked at Jiu Niang in panic. His skinny fingers were twitching, and it took a long time before he managed to utter a word.
Seeing this, Nona was not annoyed. It was already late today anyway, and the sun was about to set. There were no more patients outside.
Thus, she just smiled at him patiently, "If you aren't here to see a doctor, then what do you need?"
She had been here for more than a month, and many people would come everyday. However, everyone here was a doctor, and the moment she opened her mouth, she immediately told herself that she was not here to see a doctor, and this was the first time.
Nona was also getting curious.
