Chapter 11 Wild Boar

  After healing Zhao Erbao's injury, Li Anran didn't stay for long. After reminding Erbao's wife about the things to pay attention to in the next few days, he slipped away.

  Even so, in just one hour, Li Anran, who possessed mysterious and divine medical skills, had already gained a reputation that inspired awe in Zhaojia Village.

  Then Li Anran found that the villagers who came to Zhao Erjia's house increased. Moreover, people who come are not empty-handed, some chicken eggs from this family, a piece of meat from that family.

  However, no one dared to disturb Li Anran, but instead pulled Zhao Erniang to chat for a few sentences, and then casually praised Zhao Erbao's good luck in surviving the disaster.

  After returning to Zhao Er's home, Li Anran went into his own room and thought about things. Without guessing, he knew that these things were actually given to himself.

  It's no wonder when you think about it, let alone Zhaojia Village, there are so many villages in the surrounding areas, usually if someone has a problem, they'll endure it if they can, and only go see a doctor when they can't stand it anymore.

  The village of Kucun has no doctor, and even on ordinary days, some itinerant doctors occasionally come to visit. If something goes wrong, they can only go to the county town for treatment.

  For injuries like Zhao Erbao's this time, except for those villages close to the county town that can still make it in time to ask a doctor, basically they can only pin their hopes on gods and Buddhas.

  Li Anran's arrival brought a sense of security to the entire village. Even if he wasn't always available, having a doctor residing in the village was never a bad thing.

  Not to mention that he is a divine doctor who can even save Zhao Erbao's injuries, and what's more, use that mysterious and unpredictable method. Only fools would dare to offend him.

  As the elder of the clan, Zhao Qing-shan also had his youngest son Zhao Xiao-shan send over a set of clothes made from fairly good materials, which did alleviate Li An-ran's urgent need.

  Although this Taoist robe is quite good in terms of material, workmanship and style, it's not only awkward but also very inconvenient to wear all the time.

  After changing into new clothes, Zhao Er's wife carefully took the Taoist robe to wash. However, looking at her expression, she was still worried about her husband who had entered the mountain.

  Considering the relationship between men and women in ancient times, Li An was not stupid enough to have more contact with each other. After changing into Tang Dynasty clothes and shoes, he went out for a stroll.

  Before leaving, he specially asked for a bamboo basket to carry on his back. When treating Zhao Erbao's injury earlier, Li Anran knew the importance of those items and medicines in the first-aid kit.

  In order to make these medicinal instruments as sharp as possible, it is necessary to pick and process some suitable medicinal materials into traditional Chinese medicine to replace them.

  Before Li Anran had even entered the mountain along the almost imperceptible winding path, he saw Zhao Dajun running down from the top of the mountain all by himself.

  "Zhao Da, what's wrong? Where is your brother?" Li Anran asked hastily with a thud in his heart.

  "The path... is long. My brother and I are on the mountain, we killed that wild boar, I came back to call for help to drag it." Zhao Da replied hastily, panting slightly.

  "What? The wild boar was killed by you guys? So quickly?" After confirming that Zhao Er was fine, Li An felt a sense of relief and couldn't help but look up at the sky and ask.

  "It's a coincidence that the wild boar injured Er Bao and then ran into the mountain, only to accidentally fall into a pit. By the time we found it, it was almost dead."

  Recalling the wild boar in the pit, which was not small in size, Zhao Da, who usually found it difficult to hunt such large prey, had a joyful expression on his weathered face.

  "I see, then I can rest assured. I've also treated Zhao Erbao's injury before, and if nothing unexpected happens, there shouldn't be any problem, you'd better hurry back to call for help."

  Earlier, Li Anran also learned from the villagers' word of mouth that the lone wild boar had a very large head and it would be troublesome to get it out of the mountain, so he hurriedly gave way on the mountain road.

  "That's great, now I and Erlang can rest assured." Zhao Da suddenly saw the bamboo basket behind Li Anran with an even happier face, and said: "Daozhang, are you going into the mountain? There are many wild animals in this mountain."

  "It's okay, I'm not going inside, just wandering around outside to see if I can pick up some useful herbs. In the future, if someone in the village gets a headache or fever again, we won't have to buy them." Li Anran knew that the other person was worried about him and smiled.

  "I've succeeded, I'm going to the village to call for people."

  Zhao Da, who had heard some things about someone from his own brother, still had some fear in his heart. After finishing speaking, he ran towards the village in a hurry.

  Li Anran knew it wasn't a good opportunity to enter the mountain, so he turned around and left the area as soon as he saw Zhao brothers catch the culprit.

  It has to be admitted that the natural environment in ancient times was good, and after a small detour around the periphery of the mountain range, Li Anran actually discovered some pure wild herbs.

  Even if they are not precious goods, it is not easy to get them in large quantities in later generations. Even if you can get them, the price will not be cheap.

  After Li Anran had picked half a basket of herbs, he inadvertently discovered that by adding a few other herbs, he could gather all the materials needed to make a Chinese patent medicine.

  Just as Li Anran was thinking of making this cheap and relatively simple Chinese patent medicine a way to make money, the village became lively.

  From a distance, a group of people were walking towards Zhao Er's home. Li Anran, who knew that the two Zhao brothers should be returning with a full load, smiled slightly.

  After tossing the freshly dug medicinal herb into the bamboo basket on his back, Li Anran patted his muddy hands and strolled towards the village.

  Just before leaving the woods, however, he couldn't help but glance in a certain direction not far away.

  Not long after Li Anran left, a clump of grass not far away in this direction suddenly shook.

  "Wow! What a huge wild boar, it looks like at least 200-300 catties. Hmph, the most troublesome meat problem has been solved just like that."

  Even though he had heard from the villagers before that the wild boar that injured Zhao Erbao was not small, it wasn't until Li Anran returned to the Zhao family home that he realized just how big the boar really was.

  "I've seen the real thing."

  "I've seen the real thing."

  It's also unclear whether they learned something from Zhao Qing Shan, but when Li Fa Ran appeared, the villagers who were watching all bowed and gave him a new title.

  "Finally... you're back, I was just thinking of going to find you." Zhao Er said with a big smile on his face as he saw someone appear.

  "Great job, Zhao Er! You've managed to bring down such a big wild boar!" Li Anran walked up and patted the wild boar that was being placed on the chopping board ready to be slaughtered.

  "This ox wasn't killed by me, it fell into the mountain ditch by itself, and my brother and I just took advantage of it." Zhao Er explained, waving his hands repeatedly.

  "This wild boar that hurts people may not be the one you killed, but without you and Zhao Dajin entering the mountain, it's unlikely to fall into the pit. It should be your merit, no one can deny it."

  After glancing at the villagers on the scene, Li Anran smiled and finished speaking, but didn't continue to stay in the yard to watch the pig killing, instead taking the bamboo basket containing herbal medicine into the room.

  Zhao Qing Shan, who had just rushed over from home, happened to hear these words and on the surface didn't seem to react, but a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

  It's also unclear whether it was the previous sentence that had an effect, but the villagers' gaze towards Zhao Da and Zhao Er suddenly changed, with some filled with envy and others with gratitude.

  After all, the wild boar in front of him was too powerful, and if he really let the pig go back to the mountain, not everyone would think they could be as lucky as Zhao Erbao and pick up a life.

  Li Anran returned to the room, listening to the sound of killing pigs outside, and smiled slightly before taking out his own shanzhai mobile phone from his personal hundred treasure bag.

  Created a document named Zhong Cheng Yao, opened it and typed some thoughts about this aspect, finally typing two words: Ren Dan.

  Rendan is a Chinese patent medicine that Li Anran thought of when he was collecting herbs. Its function is relatively simple, clearing summer heat and opening orifices, and can be used for symptoms such as nausea, chest tightness, dizziness, carsickness, seasickness, etc., caused by summerheat stroke.

  The types of medicinal materials used in this thing are not many, and the sources are not expensive and easy to obtain. If a batch of materials can be purchased and processed, it is also a good income.

  For Li Anran, the most pressing issue at present is how to earn his first pot of gold, and he must do so while keeping a low profile.
