"Ouch, here it comes." Chen Yang was pulled back to reality and hurriedly started to check the silver needles and the snake bite on Wang Hong's aunt.
Chen Yang carefully moved Wang Hong's aunt's leg to better inspect the wound.
While checking the wound, it was impossible not to notice that area.
Noticing Chen Yang's wandering gaze taking advantage, Wang Hong, for some reason, blushed but did not resist at all.
It seemed she was somewhat enjoying the current situation…
After examining her, Chen Yang found that the snake venom in Wang Hong's aunt's body had mostly been expelled from the wound, and it was time to remove the needles.
Following that, Chen Yang began to remove the needles.
Removing the needles was much faster than inserting them.
In a few minutes, all the silver needles had been removed from Wang Hong's aunt's body.
During the process, Chen Yang's hands intentionally or unintentionally swept across some sensitive areas, making Wang Hong's body burn hotly, a bit shy, and even…
"This feeling…" Wang Hong felt unbearably hot and looked at Chen Yang passionately.
"You naughty boy, so boldly taking advantage of your aunt, aren't you afraid your aunt might devour you?" Having removed all the needles, Wang Hong didn't hurry to dress but instead sat on the sickbed, eyes shy, as she began to tease Chen Yang.
She was a woman who had been lonely for many years.
And the day had not completely dawned outside, no one in the village was awake yet; wasn't this a godsent opportunity?
"Hehe, Auntie, how do you want to eat me?" Facing her teasing, Chen Yang, not to be outdone, let his hand intentionally or unintentionally touch...
Zhang Xueying was still asleep inside. A little flirtation was fine, but they couldn't go overboard.
"Wang Hong, you should get dressed soon. I still need to go up the mountain to pick some herbs for you," Chen Yang said with a smile as he picked up Wang Hong's clothes and handed them to her.
Seeing her mood aroused and Chen Yang showing no intention to continue, Wang Hong grew anxious.
She reached out with both hands and hooked Chen Yang's neck, ready to convey her emotions and continue her advance, pushing Chen Yang to take the final step…
But before she could speak, Chen Yang spoke first.
"Wang Hong, Xueying is still sleeping inside. If you want to devour me, wait a few days, okay?" Chen Yang glanced at Zhang Xueying's room inside with a sly smile.
"Huh?" Hearing there was someone else in the room, Wang Hong instantly sobered up, and the flames of desire burning inside her were instantly extinguished.
"Zhang Xueying is at your place? Why didn't you tell me earlier, you rascal?" Wang Hong slapped Chen Yang's shoulder in embarrassment and frustration, then snatched the clothes from his hands and started dressing.
"Hehe, you didn't ask, did you? Hurry up and get dressed. Xueying will be waking up soon, and it wouldn't look good if she saw us," Chen Yang chuckled, then took the opportunity to steal another touch before turning around and leaving, showing no interest in watching Wang Hong dress.
"You little scoundrel, deliberately provoking me, I'll see how I devour you later," Wang Hong muttered fiercely to herself as she quickly dressed.
Immediately afterward, she walked out of the inner room and entered the clinic.
By that time, Chen Yang had already opened the clinic's rolling shutter door, and the dim light outside was shining in.
"Wang Hong, you really look better undressed," Chen Yang didn't forget to tease her as she came out.
"You little scoundrel, I'll deal with you later!" Wang Hong glared at Chen Yang angrily, then swung her hips and went home.
"Hehe, Wang Hong, the toxins in your body haven't been completely cleared yet. Remember to come by tomorrow to pick up two more dosages of medicine," Chen Yang reminded her with a smile, then began preparing in the clinic.
He planned to go up the mountain today to find some medicinal herbs. Partly because he wanted to make a couple of herbal applications for Wang Hong's wound, and partly because he wanted to dig some herbs to sell in the county for some money.
Yesterday, he had promised those thugs that the thirty thousand yuan borrowed by Chen Zhuang would all be paid by him.
Chen Yang, who had not slept at all last night, was not only thinking about Zhang Xueying, but also worrying about how to repay the thirty thousand yuan.
Thirty thousand yuan was indeed a lot of money for an ordinary person.
Moreover, with only five short days available, Chen Yang truly did not know how he could gather so much money in such a limited time.
Borrow money? Everyone in the surrounding area was quite poor, and he definitely couldn't borrow much.
Unable to borrow money, Chen Yang's thoughts naturally turned to earning money.
But his medical clinic, looking to make thirty thousand in a short period of time, was simply impossible.
Therefore, Chen Yang's eyes could only turn to the large mountain behind the village.
As the old saying goes, depend on the mountain when you live by it, and on the sea when you live by the sea.
The hundreds of miles of big mountain behind Liuhu Village was a gold mine!
"I hope I can find some rare medicinal herbs in the mountains! Right now, my only hope lies there," Chen Yang said as he put on clothing suitable for mountaineering, then, after grabbing a backpack and a medicinal hoe, he bid farewell to Zhang Xueying and set off.
The large mountain behind Liuhu Village was vast, and it was easy for someone unfamiliar with it to get lost inside.
But this wasn't a worry for Chen Yang at all because he had lived here since he was young, and his grandfather had also taken him into the mountains several times when he was a child.
So, regarding the mysterious mountain behind him, Chen Yang was among the most familiar.
"Years ago, my grandfather once dug up a 'King Ginseng' in these mountains and sold it for a handsome price; I hope I can be just as lucky!"
Chen Yang was full of hope, thinking that if he could dig up some old medicinal herbs or perhaps ancient ginseng, he would have a way to secure thirty thousand yuan.
Soon, Chen Yang entered the large mountain.
He chose a small path on the perimeter of the mountain to venture deeper into its depths.
Due to the advancements in technology in recent years, the outskirts of the mountain had been thoroughly explored by the villagers and some outsiders.
Most of the medicinal herbs and other valuables had been taken away; nowadays, to find some rare medicinal herbs, Chen Yang had to venture into places rarely visited by others.
It was only in those places that he could find some older medicinal plants.
Chen Yang was very familiar with the mountains, and it wasn't long before he reached deep into the mountain.
The depths of the mountain were rarely visited by anyone; the surroundings were filled with strange and ancient towering trees and a dense jungle that was completely the scene of an ancient forest.
The forests were dense around, which meant more medicinal herbs were available, but they were troublesome for most people to find.
But Chen Yang was different, his eyes bright, and nothing in his surroundings could escape his gaze.
Even the best-hidden herbs would be spotted by Chen Yang's sharp eyes.
So it wasn't long after entering the deep parts of the mountain that Chen Yang found many high-quality herbs.
"Although these herbs are good, their age is not high enough! To sell for thirty thousand yuan, it's far from enough," Chen Yang said, looking at the nearly full backpack and shaking his head.
Most of the herbs in the backpack were fairly common herbs.
If it were a normal time, for Chen Yang, it would definitely be considered a great harvest, but in front of thirty thousand yuan, these medicinal materials seemed somewhat insignificant.
"Let's go deeper and try our luck again; if it doesn't work out, then so be it."
After resting for a while, Chen Yang stood up again, ready to delve even deeper and try his luck.
