As expected, after drinking the potion Feng Wu gave her, the eldest daughter-in-law, who had been running a high fever, gradually recovered. Feng Wu chuckled. “I told you already. My medicine is amazing.”
Unfortunately, no one believed her.
How could there be such an amazing potion that could cure the plague? If there really was one, the empire wouldn’t have to worry about the plague so much.
Everyone thought that Feng Wu was only joking, except for Gao Mingjiang, who looked at Feng Wu in amazement.
He felt that his sister-in-law’s symptoms were very similar to the plague… So, Feng’s medicine worked, didn’t it?
Little Phoenix was complaining in Feng Wu’s head.
“You’re so… They won’t believe you after hearing what she said. No one will believe that you can treat the plague, nor will they thank you for it.” Feng Wu chuckled. “I don’t need them to give me any credit.”
Little Phoenix said, “Then you…”
Feng Wu went on laughing. “I didn’t want them to know that I was the one who had saved them. That way, I would be able to blend into the crowd and join the team. Otherwise, I would be too outstanding.”
Little Phoenix agreed with her.
Little Phoenix said, “There are more patients coming. Are you going to save them or not?”
Feng Wu shrugged. “We’re in the middle of nowhere, and there’s nothing we can do. Even if we have a prescription, we won’t know where to start. We’ll have to wait until we’re in Northern Yan. I’ll then give them the prescription.” As they spoke, they were getting closer and closer to Northern Yan.
Gao Mingjiang came to tell Feng Wu, “We’ll reach the border city in two days.” Feng Wu nodded.
They had been traveling as fast as they could. Occasionally, they would run into someone who had caught a fever, but it was getting rarer and rarer. Gao Mingjiang was elated when he saw they no longer run into people with symptoms.
As long as they got there before those people did, they should still be able to get into the border city.
“Shall we travel through the night or…” Gao Mingjiang asked for Feng Wu’s opinion.
Feng Wu looked over her shoulder and saw that they had been traveling for three to four days and were exhausted. She waved at them. “Let’s take a break for four hours. We still have some time.”
Gao Mingjiang thought the same, so he nodded and went to make the arrangement.
The Gao family used to be very disobedient and would do whatever they wanted, but after Gao Mingjiang demonstrated what would happen when he was away, they realized that they couldn’t survive without him.
As a result, they didn’t bully his family anymore, nor did they exploit Gao Mingjiang because he was their brother. They were all very obedient.
Therefore, Gao Mingjiang handled things much more easily.
Gao Mingjlang round a spot to let tnem settle down.
It just so happened that there were a lot of rocks here, so they chose a leeward spot, where they could easily start a fire.
Everyone had been eating dry food and drinking cold water for the past few days, and they had been feeling dizzy the whole time. As soon as they got off the carriages, old Mrs. Gao’s legs gave out, and she almost fell.
Feng Wu was the first to react. She picked her up and steadied the old lady.
Feng Wu looked around. They were in a forest, which was very close to Northern Yan. It wasn’t dry like the one in the south.
Feng Wu took out her bow and arrow and said to Gao Mingjiang, “I’m going to take a look in the woods.”
“Be careful,” said Gao Mingjiang..
