Chapter 769: Chapter 769
"Leukemia," for Fang Bai now, was but a minor ailment. He didn’t even need to use Chaos Origin Energy to cure it for someone.
The Marrow Cleansing Pill could completely improve a person’s constitution. For an ordinary person who took it, all illnesses would disappear in an instant. As long as Liu Fang took it, after a single sleep, all the diseases in her body would be expelled, and after a few days of rest, she would fully recover.
When Liu Fang received the Marrow Cleansing Pill from Fang Bai, she was struck by the scent of the medicine which invigorated her spirit. Although she didn’t know what the pill was made of, she sensed it was no ordinary thing.
However, she didn’t believe Fang Bai’s words that she "could completely recover in two or three days."
Liu Fang knew her illness was akin to a terminal disease; to live a bit longer was already fortunate enough. She had given up hope of being cured, let alone being cured within two or three days—unless the young man’s pill was an Immortal Pill.
Seeing his mother hesitate over whether to take the pill from Fang Bai, Zhao Guoqiang thought that since Fang Bai bore no grudge against their family and certainly wouldn’t harm anyone, perhaps the pill really was made using an ancestral secret formula and could be beneficial for his mother’s illness.
"Mom, why don’t... you give it a try?"
Zhao Guoqiang glanced at Fang Bai, then said to his mother.
Liu Fang nodded, took a cup of water her husband passed to her, swallowed the pill in her hand, and then tucked herself into bed as Fang Bai had instructed.
"Auntie Liu will quickly fall asleep after taking the medicine, likely for about an hour. During this process, the viruses in her body will be expelled due to the medicinal power; you don’t have to worry about that. When Auntie Liu wakes up, she should just cleanse herself!"
After leaving the room where Liu Fang was staying, Fang Bai said to Zhao Yunjian and his son.
Then, Fang Bai went to rest in the room arranged by Zhao Yunjian and his son, while they waited outside Liu Fang’s room, eager for her to wake up.
Fang Bai sat cross-legged in his room to recuperate for over an hour, and when he heard voices outside, he knew that Liu Fang had woken up and had already cleaned up. She was speaking softly with her husband and son about something, and from the tone of the family of three, one could hear an overwhelming sense of surprise and joy.
"Mr. Fang, have you rested well?"
When Fang Bai opened the door to come out, Zhao Yunjian’s family of three greeted him with beaming faces.
"How does Auntie feel now?"
Fang Bai asked with a smile, looking at Liu Fang whose spirit looked significantly better.
Liu Fang said excitedly, "Much better... so much better... Mr. Fang, that pill of yours is truly miraculous... I feel even better now than before I got sick... Mr. Fang, is my illness really cured?"
Fang Bai nodded and said with a smile, "You’re cured! Now what you need to do is rest well for a few days to recuperate your body! If you’re not at ease, you can go to a nearby hospital for a check-up in a few days."
"Mr. Fang, I can’t thank you enough! Since you’ve cured Guoqiang’s mother’s sickness, we can’t charge you money for taking you to the mountains to find that thing..."
Zhao Yunjian said as he took out the stack of money Fang Bai had given them earlier at the market and handed it to Fang Bai.
"Treating Auntie’s illness was just a simple effort for me! Keep the money, and later on, use it to buy some nourishing products for Auntie’s health!"
Fang Bai firmly pushed the money back again.
Seeing Fang Bai insist on not taking the money, Zhao Yunjian had no choice but to give up, and his family’s respect for Fang Bai grew even more profound.
The news that Liu Fang’s leukemia had been cured spread throughout Zhao Family Village that very afternoon, causing quite a sensation. Many villagers with health issues came to Fang Bai’s door with money and goods in hand, hoping to be treated.
Fang Bai did not turn away these kind and simple villagers. He had Zhao Guoqiang move a table into the courtyard and began treating the villagers there.
No matter the disease, from common colds and fevers to incurable terminal illnesses, Fang Bai was able to cure them using only his hands and a few needles.
In just two hours, dozens of villagers suffering from various illnesses were all cured by Fang Bai, and everyone felt deeply grateful to him.
Especially two elderly villagers with terminal diseases, like Liu Fang, they couldn’t afford hospital care and could only wait for death at home. After being cured by Fang Bai, both the elders and their families knelt in the courtyard to kowtow to him.
Leading the hunters of Zhao Family Village, including Zhao Yunjian and his son, decided that when they went into the mountains with Fang Bai the next day, even if they found a lot of "Earth Immortal Ginseng," they would not accept Fang Bai’s money.
Fang Bai stayed overnight in Zhao Family Village. As dawn broke the next day, after breakfast, more than a dozen hunters from the village gathered at Zhao Yunjian’s house with bows, hunting rifles, ropes, and other gear.
At seven in the morning, a team of fifteen hunters, including Fang Bai, crossed the hillside outside the village and plunged into the boundless deep forest and snow-covered woods.
The large number of hunters entered the mountain not only to help Fang Bai find "Earth Immortal Ginseng" but also to hunt game to sell at the market to help Continue reading more chapters on NovelHub for the best experience.
Fang Bai walked in the middle of the group with Zhao Yunjian and his son, protected by hunters in case of fierce animal attacks along the way to prevent any accidents.
Fang Bai just smiled at this; with his strength, what was there to fear from an animal attack? Still, he appreciated the hunters’ protective gesture and naturally wouldn’t say anything.
In the deep forest and snowfield, the trees were lush and the paths rugged. Some parts of the primeval forest were so dense they blocked out the sunlight, making it very easy for someone without experienced hunters as guides to get lost.
Following the hunters deeper into the Forest Sea Snowfield, at first, they saw nothing but trees and snow. Later, they occasionally spotted wild chickens and rabbits darting past, leaving trails of footprints in the snowy forest.
Fang Bai had no interest in wild chickens and rabbits, but Zhao Yunjian and the other hunters were excited. Working together, they used their equipment to capture and kill the animals, bagging a dozen or so in half a day.
"Haha, we’ve caught a dozen game animals in half a day. It looks hunting trip will definitely yield a good harvest!" Zhao Yunjian said with a laugh.
Each time they entered the forest, they would stay in the Forest Sea Snowfield for several days. If they continued to hunt at this pace, they might capture a hundred game animals over a few days, which would be considered a bountiful harvest.
Of course, the hunters’ goal in going into the mountains was not just to capture game animals; they also hoped to find some wild ginseng, which was often much more valuable than wild chickens or rabbits.
If they were lucky enough to find a Hundred-Year Wild Ginseng, they would be making a fortune.
However, after years of harvesting, Hundred-Year Wild Ginseng had become very rare. One would have to venture deep into the Forest Sea Snowfield to possibly find any.
