Yu Feng grabbed Yu Wan’s arm. “Ah Wan, this kind of thing isn’t child’s play. Let’s not…”
Yu Wan smiled. “Don’t worry, Big Brother. I’ve treated that horse’s illness before. I know my limits.”
“You’ve treated this before? When?” Yu Feng asked with his eyes wide open.
“The year I left home.” Yu Wan made up a lie casually. This was the closest and most reasonable explanation. Sometimes, Yu Wan was even very grateful for the Host’s experience. Otherwise, she really didn’t know how to explain to her family about the abilities she gained out of nowhere.
When Yu Feng heard that it was during that year, he did not continue asking.
“What are you dawdling for? Are you going to treat it or not?” Courier Wang impatiently urged.
“Coming.” Yu Wan entered the horse shed and walked towards the paralyzed horse.
This was a golden Ferghana horse, one of the rarest species of Ferghana horses. It wasn’t as large as a Mongolian warhorse, but it had strong lines and well-developed muscles. Its explosive power and endurance far surpassed ordinary warhorses. Even though it was paralyzed, it still exuded a kingly aura.
“It’s so beautiful.” Yu Wan knelt down on one knee beside the horse and took off the horse’s bar snaffle bit.
Seeing her take off the horse’s bar snaffle bit, Courier Wang’s heart jumped to his throat. He was so anxious just now that he forgot to remind her that this was an untamed wild horse. If it didn’t wear a horse’s snaffle bit, it would bite!
The previous courier was bitten into the medical center by it!
They would only take off the horse’s snaffle bit when they fed it, but they also wore armor and protective gear to remove it. He only said one sentence slower, and this little girl took off the horse’s snaffle bit with her bare hands.?This, this, this…
Courier Wang wanted to rush over and pull Yu Wan back, but he saw her gently place her hand on the horse’s head.?You didn’t run when you took the horse’s snaffle bit, and you still touched it!?However, what happened next stunned him.
Under Yu Wan’s touch, not only did the violent Ferghana horse not go crazy, it even rubbed against Yu Wan’s palm gently.
Courier Wang :”…”
Yu Feng did not know anything about horses, so he thought that it was naturally docile. Therefore, he was not too surprised. He was more concerned about whether his sister could cure it.
After Yu Wan calmed the Ferghana horse down, she carefully examined it. The result was exactly as she had guessed. It was indeed prenatal paraplegic.
This kind of illness often occurred in livestock, however, it did not occur oftenly in wild horses, and there were many reasons for this. Perhaps it was due to malnutrition, or perhaps it was because the fetus was too large or there was too much amniotic fluid, but the main reason was that it could not stand up and would lie on the ground. Generally speaking, there would be some signs before paralysis, but there was also the possibility of a sudden illness. This horse belonged to the latter.
If it was not treated in time, it would easily induce infection. At that time, both the mother and the fetus would be in danger.
“I need a pair of silver needles,” Yu Wan said.
Courier Wang quickly ordered the courier. “Quick! Go buy some needles for the young lady!”
Yu Wan said, “Wait, there are herbs too. Bring me a pen and paper.”
Courier Wang personally took out a brush, paper, and inkstone.
Yu Wan naturally did not understand the words of this dynasty, but the Host seemed to know them. She wrote down the prescription smoothly and noted down the size of the silver needle.
Yu Feng was shocked again.
“Forty one grams of angelica, thirty two grams of paeonia lactiflora, forty one grams of rehmannia glutinosa. Are-are these herbs really effective?” Courier Wang read out the prescription.
Yu Wan put down her pen. “Whether it works or not, we’ll know once we try.”
Courier Wang had no other choice but to resort to desperate measures. He ordered people to buy needles and herbs from the clinic.
“Place the medicine stove right here,” Yu Wan said, pointing to the aisle in the horse shed.
Courier Wang obeyed.
Yu Wan started to administer acupuncture to the horse. The pain from the needle would often give the horse a fright, but the horse did not seem to be frightened at all. This was something that even the doctor could not do!
Courier Wang was stunned.
He was not the only one who was stunned. A window had opened in the attic opposite the horse shed. The windows were hidden from view due to the trees. Although one could not see in from the outside, one could clearly see from the inside.
This was the second best room of the courier station, second only to the best room. Sitting inside was a man in his fifties, dressed in gray clothes, and a handsome young man in green.
The young man did not understand why his great uncle did not want to get the best room. They did not lack money!
“Great Uncle, I’m afraid you’re going to lose. That horse is saved!”
Just an hour ago, the two of them had also discovered the situation of the horse shed. The man called Great Uncle shook his head without thinking and said, “What a pity for a good horse.”
The youth asked, “Does Great Uncle think it’s going to die?”
Great Uncle replied, “I don’t think so. It’s a fact that it’s dead.”
These words sounded strange. It was clearly still alive, yet Great Uncle spoke as if he had seen it die with his own eyes.
The young man blinked in confusion. “Shall we make a bet?”
On the other hand, Yu Wan had finished her acupuncture and the medicine was ready. Yu Wan turned the medicine into a pill and mixed it with the feed for the horse to eat.
About two hours later, a miracle happened. The horse that had been paralyzed for half a day was slowly standing up!
“Great Uncle, look! It’s standing up! It’s okay! It’s really okay!” The youth was so excited that he knocked over the teacup on the table.
He won the bet. The person who had helped him win his great uncle’s painting was actually an unremarkable little village girl. He was suddenly interested in the village girl.
The tea spilled all over Great Uncle’s body, but Great Uncle seemed to be completely unaware of it. He stared fixedly at the village girl in the horse shed with a blank expression. “That shouldn’t be… Where did she come from…”
...
The commotion caused by the Ferghana horse was too big, and it attracted many guests. When the paralyzed horse really stood up, the entire horse shed was in an uproar.
“Miss, you are really a living Bodhisattva!” Not only were there many people watching, even the courier wanted to kneel down in front of Yu Wan!
Even Courier Wang was shocked. He never expected that a mere village girl would have such good medical skills.
“Courier Wang, are you still keeping your word?” Yu Wan looked at Courier Wang.
Courier Wang cleared his throat and said, “Of course. I’ll give you the consultation fee later. As for your things… I’ve said that I’ll only take three. Take back one yourself.”
Yu Wan patted the horse’s back and turned around.
She had a bundle, a large jar, and two small jars. The bundle contained frostbite medicine and cotton clothes. The large jar contained the baked pancakes, while the two small jars contained pickled vegetables and meatballs.
Yu Wan thought for a while and picked up the small jar on the right. She took out the meatballs one by one and stuffed them into the jar containing the pancakes. There were still some gaps in the jar’s neck. Half of the meatballs were stored, but the other half could not be stuffed in no matter what.
“There’s enough to eat,” Yu Feng said.
Yu Wan nodded. She had made more than a hundred.
“Come over and apply your handprint.” Courier Wang said to Yu Wan.
Yu Feng glanced at Yu Wan’s obviously haggard face. “Did you not sleep last night again? Forget it, I’ll go. Wait for me here. I’ll rent a carriage for you after I’m done with my handprints.” Renting a carriage was expensive, but this girl had not slept for two nights. No matter how Yu Feng thought about it, his heart ached more than his money pouch.
Yu Wan smiled and nodded. “Many thanks, Big Brother.”
Not long after Yu Feng left, a carriage stopped behind Yu Wan. At first, Yu Wan wasn’t sure if Yu Feng had rented it for her, but after waiting for a long time and seeing that the carriage didn’t leave, she carried the jar in her arms and went up.
The exterior of the car did not look eye-catching, but it was very exquisite and warm inside. There was even a faint… pleasant fragrance floating around.
“Isn’t it a lot of money to rent a carriage like this? Big Brother has really invested a lot.” Yu Wan sat down on the soft cushion. The softness and comfort made her squint with pleasure.
Yu Wan did not know if she was too tired or the carriage was too warm, but after a while, she fell asleep while hugging the jar.
