Mulian City boundary, Fengtian Ridge
"Veterinarian Zhang! What's going on?"
In the lingering light of dusk, among the trees on the top of the mountain, a middle-aged man in gray robes roared angrily at an old man with a sweaty face.
"Reporting to Captain Zhao, this horse is indeed not sick, but why it collapsed for no reason. I have little medical skills and I really can't find out..."
The old man with a sad face carefully wiped the sweat from his forehead and replied helplessly.
"This horse was obviously fine before setting off in the morning. Why did it become like this after just one day of walking? Isn't it sick? Do you know that if the birthday of the chief helmsman is delayed, I will blame you!" Captain Zhao angrily rebuked.
"Excuse me! Manager Leng, I really can't do anything at all..."
Vet Zhang was so frightened that he knelt down in front of Manager Leng and begged. The responsibility of delaying the chief helmsman's birthday is something that a small local horse doctor like him cannot bear.
"Huh!" Captain Zhao didn't even look at him, turned around and walked towards the young woman sitting on the bluestone resting by the woods.
"Reporting to Miss, Veterinarian Zhang is unable to detect the sudden illness of these horses. In my opinion, how about we send someone back first and select a group of horses?"
Captain Zhao bowed his hands in a respectful manner, his attitude no longer arrogant.
"If we can't find out, then why should we keep him?"
The young woman said in an indifferent and cold voice while stroking and combing the fur of the black flame wolf curled up beside her.
"Yes!" After Captain Zhao understood, he turned around and walked towards Vet Zhang who was lying on the ground with a murderous look on his face...
"Um...please ask, what happened?"
Just as Captain Zhao was about to raise his hand, an inappropriate child's voice came from behind. Breaking the silence of dusk around him, he instantly attracted the attention of the members of the Iron Wolf Escort Agency who were resting in the woods.
"Where did you come from, little kid, get out of here if you don't want to die!" Captain Zhao, who was furious, glanced at the ignorant child riding a horse in the silhouette of the setting sun, and threatened him unceremoniously.
"Oh, sorry. Excuse me, I'll be leaving soon..."
In the dusk and sunset, a young man riding a horse leisurely walked slowly. This young man set out from Muliang City and kept an eye on the Escort's convoy for seven nights.
"Hey, why did your horse fall ill?" Qiye looked around at the stalled horses and asked curiously.
"It's none of your business, so get out of here!" Captain Zhao was furious. The young man simply ignored him.
"It's okay, let me take a look..." Qiye seemed not to have heard Captain Zhao's warning at all, and got off the horse to check on his own, looking like he was eager to save lives and heal the wounded.
"Oh, that's it. It's just a slight dizziness. Just take some medicine."
After some "professional" diagnosis, Qiye came to the conclusion. Then he took out a white medicine bottle from his arms, poured out a small pill and stuffed it into the horse's mouth.
"Boy, what did you feed the horse?" Captain Zhao, who was left alone, felt a sense of shame and humiliation.
While he was interrogating Vet Zhang in front of the young lady, he was interrupted by a little furry child.
Not only that, this little kid also fed unknown drugs to the horses without authorization. These horses were all horses from the Iron Wolf Escort Agency, and each one was carefully selected. If he dies after taking unknown drugs, he, as the captain of the escort, will inevitably be involved.
"You brat, you're looking for death!" Seeing Qiye still ignoring him, Captain Zhao suddenly raised his palm, and a murderous aura was gushing out.
"Slow down!" A deep command came from behind.
Captain Zhao's raised palm froze in mid-air. When he looked back, it turned out to be Manager Leng.
"Manager Leng, this kid..." Captain Zhao was about to continue, but was stopped again, so he could only hold his breath and endure it for the time being.
Manager Leng looked straight at the horse that had been fed medicine by Qiye and collapsed on the ground.
Gradually, he found that the horse's weak breathing was becoming even, and the whole horse's vitality was gradually recovering. Within a moment, the horse miraculously stood up, looking full of energy and no longer weak. sign.
"Little guy, what did you feed the horse just now? How did it recover all of a sudden?" Manager Leng stepped forward and asked curiously.
"Back to my lord, I just fed the horse "Muyu Dan", which made the horse wake up so quickly." Qiye said truthfully.
"Oh, Muyu Pill? How come I haven't heard of this pill?" Manager Leng gently stroked a handful of his beard and recalled it carefully.
"Back to your lord, this is a veterinary herb prepared by the villain himself. It is normal that you have never heard of it. The villain is a horse herder and deals with horses all day long. He is naturally familiar with horse nature and also knows a little bit about medicine. …”
Qiye slowly explained that in fact, the so-called Muyu Dan was just a temporary name he gave. How could he not have an antidote to the poison he had administered?
"Oh? I can't tell. The little guy is young and knows how to treat horses. I wonder where you are going?"
Manager Leng could tell that the young man in front of him was much better at treating horses than that Veterinarian Zhang. If he was with the escort team, there would be no need to worry about anything happening to the horses along the way.
"Sir, I am taking a leisurely medical trip and plan to go to Baiyan City..." Qiye said casually, but he couldn't help but feel happy. It seems that the plan has been half successful.
"Oh? Why do you want to go to Baiyan City? You are young, aren't you afraid of the dangers along the way?"
Manager Leng inquired more curiously. You must know that this distance is not short. It takes more than a month and passes through many dangerous places along the way.
"I have long heard that Baiyan City is prosperous and has prosperous medical skills, and I have longed for it. If I can learn even one and a half moves, it will be enough to comfort me for the rest of my life. Even if the road is full of swords and fire, I will definitely keep moving forward!"
Qiye stood up slightly, showing a proud attitude. In fact, this was just a show he performed for Manager Leng to win some favor.
"Haha... interesting, what's your name? If you don't mind, just come with our escort agency. We can ensure your safety along the way. However, in exchange, you only need to take good care of our horses."
Manager Leng admired Qiye's courage and took the opportunity to extend an invitation to him.
"Are you going to Baiyan City too... In that case, thank you for taking me in. I have no name, so please call me "Ah Qi". Sir, please rest assured that Ah Qi will do his best to take good care of you." horses!"
Qiye smiled honestly, patted his chest and made a promise. He looked like a sincere and honest person, and it was difficult for anyone to be suspicious.
So far, the plan is successful! He couldn't help but feel happy, and after a brief moment of hesitation, he agreed without any hesitation.
"Oh, Ah Qi... then I'll help you. Just treat these horses so they can go on the road." Manager Leng said a few polite words and then ordered.
"Well, okay..." Qiye nodded and happily began to concentrate on treating the horse. In fact, it's just a matter of feeding a few pills.
All the remaining horses that were lying on the ground were fed Muyu Dan. Within a moment, half of the horses that were lying on the ground stood up in high spirits.
Seeing this scene, Vet Zhang, who was kneeling beside him, let out a sincere sigh of relief. It seemed that his life was saved. His dim eyes looked at Qiye with tears of gratitude.
On the other side, Captain Zhao, who had been left aside for a long time, lost a rare opportunity to show off in front of the young lady, and felt even more resentful towards Qiye.
"Miss, it's getting late now, why not camp here tonight?" Manager Leng asked Miss Leng's opinion.
"Well, I'll just listen to you." Miss Leng stood up slowly, her expression still cold. She also saw the scene that just happened. She glanced coldly at Qiye who was busy in the distance, and then left.
"Boss, who is that kid? He dares to steal your limelight." After the lady left, several members of the Iron Wolf Escort Agency gathered around and fanned the flames around Captain Zhao.
"Hmph, let him be proud for a while. There is still a long way to go. Let's see if I don't torture him to death." Captain Zhao looked at Qiye who was busy with cold eyes, showing a hint of conspiracy on his face.
When night fell, the Iron Wolf Escort team set up camp in the mountains and woods and sat around a bonfire. Because alcohol was not allowed during the mission, everyone sat together, eating the dry food they had brought out, talking and laughing.
Qiye also got a piece of dried meat and sat by the fire and ate it with relish.
"Little brother, how does this dried meat taste?" asked a team member next to Qiye.
"Yeah, it's very delicious! I've never eaten anything so delicious!"
Qiye praised it without hesitation. He looked like a sloppy country bumpkin, and he probably had never tasted anything delicious in the eyes of others.
"Then where are you from? Your accent doesn't sound like you're from Muliang City, right?" Another team member also interjected.
"I come from a mountain village in Shuiyou City..." Qiye said without any hint of mystery.
Anyway, for me, I have no concept of rural sentiment. Whether it's Hanling City or Shuiyou City, it's just a strange place name, just name it casually.
"Oh, you can't tell that this little brother is so young. His skills in treating horses are so good that he can't even compare to Veterinarian Zhang in our team." The third person next to him said highly of Qiye's medical skills.
"No, no, compared to everyone else, Ah Qi's medical skills are nothing more than crude medical skills from the countryside..." Qiye waved his hands, looking humble.
He knew very well that spiritual practitioners would not be distracted by learning some veterinary techniques.
Because in the eyes of these people, this is just a vulgar knowledge learned by ordinary people in the market. It is difficult to reach the level of elegance and is not worth spending time to learn.
Besides, in this world, strength is the eternal king.
Therefore, in this Iron Wolf Escort escort fleet, except for one veterinarian, the others basically do not know how to treat horses.
"Haha... I can't tell that little brother Qi is still so humble." As the people around him chatted with Qi Ye, the atmosphere became cheerful.
"Hmph, I didn't expect this kid to be very popular, so I'll let you be proud for a few more days." He looked at Qiye, who was chatting, laughing and mingling with the people around him. Captain Zhao, who was watching with cold eyes, snorted coldly and tore off a large mouthful of dried meat as if to vent his anger.
