The rural doctor bought a husband who was very treacherous

Chapter 176: Southern Border Witch Doctor

The man was holding the child and struggling to move through the crowd. The people around him did not give way because of his shouting, which also shows the cold-bloodedness of the people in southern Xinjiang.

In their view, it is none of their business, even if it is a human life, it is only the life of others.

Fortunately, the man quickly found the place he was looking for. He carried the child quickly into a shop on the street.

Su Tang raised her eyes to look above the shop. There was no sign on the shop indicating a pharmacy or drugstore.

The sign on the door only had a picture of a coiled snake, with its head raised and its tongue sticking out, its eyes staring upwards.

Su Tang looked back into the shop. The door was wide open and the man holding the child was calling out anxiously, "Witch doctor, please save my child."

Witch doctor?

Su Tang was very surprised. She didn't expect to meet him just when she went out on the street.

In the shop, the man placed the child on a long table and knelt down before a middle-aged woman in elaborate clothing who came out of the house. "Please, witch doctor, save my child."

In the room, the middle-aged woman raised her hand and made a strange gesture. The man who was kneeling on the ground immediately stopped shouting and just looked at the middle-aged woman quietly.

The middle-aged woman walked to the table and gently touched the child's forehead with her hand. Su Tang clearly saw a red bug jump out from the woman's wrist, quickly crawling towards the child's nose and drilling into it.

Everyone in the room was used to this and no one showed any surprise. The man who was kneeling on the ground even bent down devoutly in the direction of the middle-aged woman and bowed his head to the ground.

"Cough, cough, cough..." In less than a cup of tea, the child lying flat on the table suddenly started coughing violently.

The middle-aged woman waved her hand again to hold down the child who wanted to get up. A red worm that was slightly fatter than before was coughed out of the child's mouth and fell into the middle-aged woman's hands.

"Dad..." The child on the table cried weakly. The man happily kowtowed to the middle-aged woman again, then got up to see his child.

"You finally woke up." The man looked at his child with joy.

Su Tang, who was standing outside the store and watching the entire rescue process, raised her eyebrows in surprise.

She didn't expect that the poisonous insect could have such an effect, and she didn't know the principle of how the poisonous insect could save people.

As if sensing Su Tang's gaze, the middle-aged woman retracted the red bug, raised her eyes and looked outside, just in time to meet Su Tang's surprised gaze.

The woman only glanced at Su Tang, then looked away and turned into the inner room.

The man did not pay any medical fees and left the shop holding his child. When he came out of the shop, he passed by Su Tang.

Su Tang was able to see the child's face clearly. Its face, which was purple just now, had turned to normal skin color.

"Dad, I want to eat the meat buns sold in the shop over there." The child was saying something to the man holding him. Su Tang only understood a few simple words.

The man then responded and took the child to a food stall not far away.

"Do you want to see a doctor?" A question in her ear drew Su Tang's attention back.

Su Tang saw a man wearing southern Xinjiang clothing standing in the shop looking at her.

Seeing that Su Tang looked over and didn't say anything, the man looked at Su Tang again and asked, "Do you want to see a doctor?"

The man was speaking the dialect of southern Xinjiang, but this was exactly the sentence Professor Tian had taught him.

"No." Su Tang replied in southern Xinjiang dialect and shook her head.

After listening to Su Tang's words, the young man smiled and nodded to Su Tang, then turned around and went back into the store.

But as soon as the man walked in, he heard footsteps behind him.

He turned around slowly and was surprised to find that it was the man he had just asked who walked in.

He looked at Su Tang again, but didn't ask any more questions.

"Does anyone speak Dayong Chinese?" Su Tang asked in poor southern Xinjiang dialect.

The man opposite raised his eyebrows and said to Su Tang in standard Dayong Han dialect: "I can speak it."

Su Tang smiled and said, "I am a businessman from Dayong. My family is in the medicinal materials business. I just happened to see that man bringing his child here for medical treatment, so I followed him out of curiosity."

"Well, you also know medicine?" The man looked at Su Tang.

"I know a little bit." Su Tang replied with a smile.

"Are you going to buy medicinal herbs here in southern Xinjiang?" the man asked again.

"I do want to bring some herbs back, but I've heard about the power of our Southern Border witch doctors before, so I followed my family's shopkeeper here this time to broaden my horizons."

"The witch doctor skills of Southern Xinjiang are not taught to outsiders." The man replied, stroking the chain on his wrist.

"Oh, so that's it." Su Tang's eyes flashed with disappointment, and she sighed with a hint of regret.

"Then are you still buying herbs?" the man asked again.

"I won't buy any today. Let's talk about it when the shopkeeper and I come here someday. I don't know much about the herbs in southern Xinjiang."

Su Tang left the shop, and the man just nodded politely to Su Tang and returned to the counter to sort the herbs.

Su Tang walked around the street for a while. On one street, she saw two or three shops with snake-shaped signs, but not a single clinic.

It seems that the people in southern Xinjiang do not really respect Dayong's medical skills. They prefer their own witch doctor skills.

However, Su Tang did not rashly go into these shops where witch doctors were in charge, and planned to go there when Professor Hetian came in the future.

The main city of Dayong is quite prosperous. Apart from the residential areas, most of the blocks are lined with shops.

There were also jugglers performing in the streets and alleys, and the crowds of people watching the fun formed several layers around them.

During this time, Su Tang also saw many people wearing Dayong costumes strolling on the street, and it seemed that they were also here to do business.

Before dinner, Su Tang didn't even walk around the entire commercial district of the main city. She followed her memory and returned to the courtyard where she rented.

"Master, why did you come back just now? A few people came to the house and said they were looking for you. The two drivers said they knew them. I asked them to go to the west room."

As soon as Su Tang entered the yard, she saw Chunmei waiting for her at the door.

Su Tang was a little surprised. They had just arrived here today, so how come someone came to look for her and knew her and Qi's army?

Could it be...

Su Tang and Chunmei walked around the stone wall at the entrance and just entered the outer courtyard when they saw a familiar figure.

"Why are you here?" Su Tang looked at Qi Lingheng in surprise who was looking at her with a smile.

"If I don't come again, will you forget about me?" Qi Lingheng walked towards Su Tang with a smile on his face.

Chunmei subconsciously walked in front of Su Tang to block Qi Lingheng.

Qi Lingheng had been to the Plum Garden and the Princess's Mansion in Kyoto before, but he always went there without telling Chunmei and the others. After all, few people in Kyoto knew about his marriage to Su Tang.

Qi Lingheng wanted to re-arrange their wedding in Kyoto and didn't want to let Su Tang down.

Then he will be able to stand beside Su Tang openly without having to worry about people talking about Su Tang.
