"I haven't been out all the time, so I haven't been discovered?" Jiang Yu listened to Aouma's words, and couldn't help but have some thoughts in thought.

He has been thinking about how to find an opportunity to gain the trust of the villagers, so that the villagers can go to the side of the Ming army, and completely break with the Luchuan forces. And the identity of Aouma's own soldiers may be a potential trigger.

There was a small talk here, Chen Ziyu and An Bai had already come back from collecting medicine, and the bright green leaves of Artemisia annua looked full of vitality at a glance.

"Brother Hui, the herbs have been picked." Chen Ziyu greeted Jiang Yuran: "I'm going to make the finished product now, it will take about an hour, and the rest will be left to me." ”

"I'm waiting for your good news." Jiang Yugang is not a person who likes laymen to manage insiders. Chen Ziyu's method of making medicine has been seen several times, and it is not a simple selection of herbs to be processed, but a very complex treatment of the raw materials themselves that are used in the medicine.

This kind of treatment is very testing of techniques and skills, and according to Jiang Yu's observation, it is almost impossible to implement this kind of technique. This is also an important reason why ancient medicine has been replaced by modern systems in later generations - the whole healing process is so complex that it has a certain degree of unrepeatability.

This kind of non-reproducibility is a bit like the cutting-edge biological research of later generations, and the results of some experiments are also unrepeatable, because the whole process is too complex and involves too much information, resulting in some experimental results that can only be made by individual laboratories.

This unrepeatable, difficult-to-master technique is more of a difficult craft than a science. Jiang Yu made up his mind to start with Chen Ziyu in the future and promote modern medical technology, but for now, the treatment of Auma still depends on Chen Ziyu's personal skills, so he will not mention it for the time being.

Leaving Aouma's hospital bed and waiting for Chen Ziyu's medicine and treatment, Jiang Yu had nothing to do for a while.

He stepped out of the opaque dimly lit room, and it was afternoon outside, the sun was blazing and the afternoon was past and dusk had not yet come. The sun is hidden behind the clouds, but the clouds are not heavy, the colorless sky is bright and not dazzling, and the cool breeze blowing through the mountains is really refreshing.

This is the first time that Jiang Yugang relaxes and appreciates the world in front of him, the world of the fourteenth year of Ming orthodoxy, 1449 AD. The industrial revolution has not yet arrived, and the natural world has not been polluted much, and the smell of the air is extremely fresh, with the unique moist smell of the mountains and forests.

He touched the hunting knife on his waist, wanted to walk around the cottage, and when he turned his eyes, he happened to see Xi'er carrying a flat burden, Xi'er was very small, and the bottom of the two buckets hanging on the flat shoulder almost touched the ground.

"Xi'er, I'll help you carry water." Jiang Yugang said.

"No, I can do it myself." Xi'er saw that it was Jiang Yugang, and her tense little face relaxed a lot, revealing some childishness.

This child has been dependent on his father since he was a child, and now his father is not in a good situation, and he is also forced by the environment to mature and sensible prematurely. Jiang Yugang and her entourage, who came from afar, touched the child's heart with the help she and her father needed most.

Jiang Yu smiled and didn't say much, and directly lifted the flat burden from Xi'er's shoulder and hung it on his shoulder: "I don't know the road, you lead the way." ”

Xi'er was a little panicked at first that Jiang Yugang suddenly took away the flat burden, but when she saw Jiang Yu's appearance of taking the flat burden, she nodded half helplessly and half shyly: "Okay." ”

Xi'er's small figure walked in front, and Jiang Yu's tall man followed behind, walking through the alleys of the cottage. The trail is quiet, and only the sound of a bubbling stream in the mountains can be heard.

"Why are you helping me carry the burden?" Xi'er asked suddenly.

"It's very hard for you to carry the burden as a child," Jiang Yugang said, "Being pressed on your shoulders by such a heavy burden, you won't be tall in the future." ”

"Grow taller? What's the use of growing tall? ”

"If you grow taller, others won't dare to bully you." Jiang Yu said leisurely: "You won't be afraid of the Luchuan soldiers." ”

Xi'er paused and muttered, "I, I'm not afraid now." ”

"Oh? Is it? A wicked smile appeared at the corner of Jiang Yu's mouth: "What does the man in front of you with a long knife and an elephant totem tattooed on his clothes do?" ”

"What? Where is he? Xi'er looked flustered like a wounded kitten.

"It's right in front, why don't I lift you up and take a look?" Jiang Yu asked.

The trail they are walking now continues to extend upward, and the scene of going uphill is naturally invisible to the little Xi'er.

"No, no." Xi'er waved her hand in fear.

"It's okay, you're light." Jiang Yuyan didn't care about Xi'er's hand, and lifted her to the top of his head and put her on his neck.

"Grab something, sit tight." Jiang Yu grabbed Xi'er's calf that was kicking randomly because she was panicked and scared, and continued to walk forward steadily.

Sitting on Jiang Yugang's shoulder, Xi'er finally saw the scene in front of her, the familiar Quankou pool is a few familiar grandmothers washing clothes or fetching water, where are there any men with long knives and elephant totems tattooed on their clothes?

A few tears that flowed out of anxiety and fear stopped at the corners of her eyes, and her calf kicked restlessly again: "You lied to me? ”

"And say you're not afraid?" Jiang Yu asked with a smile.

"Not afraid is not afraid." Xi'er gambled.

Jiang Yu said helplessly: "Okay, well, I know you're not afraid." ”

"Hmph."

didn't take a few more steps, and when I arrived at the pool, some of the grandmothers who were washing clothes and fetching water had gone to buy food before, and they all smiled kindly when they saw Jiang Yu. A few people who had never seen Jiang Yugang were curious about the intimate appearance of Xi'er riding on Jiang Yugang's shoulder.

"Xi'er, who is this?" One asked.

Without waiting for Xi'er to speak, Jiang Yugang spoke first: "I am a merchant from Meng Yangcheng, and there are people under me who understand medical skills, and I happen to be able to cure Xi'er and her father's illness, and it takes time to treat the disease, and now there is nothing to do, so I will help this child carry water." ”

"Xi'er, this kid has a hard life, it's a good thing to meet you." The man heard Jiang Yu say this, and nodded with satisfaction.

"This little brother is indeed a good person." A few grandmothers who had bought Jiang Yu's food echoed on the side. They didn't want to say that they bought food from Jiang Yugang, after all, the food he could bring was limited, and others would buy it, so they wouldn't have it, but out of gratitude, although they couldn't directly say specific things, they had to say a few good words for Jiang Yugang.

Jiang Yu scratched his head, pretending to be embarrassed, while silently fetching water into the bucket, while bearing the praise of the grandmothers, but he was quite proud in his heart, seeing their reaction, it showed that the implementation of his plan to blend into Nansang Village was quite good.

It is only a matter of time before the villagers are exposed to the most urgently needed food in Nansang Village, and then use the contacts with Xi'er's family to gradually go deep into the cottage and gain the trust and recognition of the villagers.
