Chapter 762: Narrow Road to the Enemy
ky critters dealt with, Ripples felt a sense of relief wash over her. She then dove into the main task at hand, helping the lion pride identify some newly discovered food sources.Looking at the items...“Does your uncle have medical books Is he a doctor”
The ripples asked directly.
"Yes, I study Traditional Chinese Medicine. With the disaster now upon us, I have no medicinal herbs left, not even enough to make a simple prescription. We are starving. My wife and I have run out of food. If we can't get more supplies soon, I'll have no choice but to cut my own flesh."
Men are really at their wit's end.
"Are you people who have been relocated to temporary shelters"
"Well, my house is on the third floor. It was flooded during the second month. I stayed in the hallway for a while before moving to an evacuation center."
Men speak their minds.
Besides prescribing medication, what other skills do you have
The ripples continued to ask.
I can acupuncture, cupping, and bone setting; I've mastered all the skills needed in traditional Chinese medicine.
The man, seeing that Lian Yi was asking so many detailed questions, thought there was a possibility of a sale and immediately started promoting himself.
"Our team is short a doctor. If you think you're up to it, talk to your wife about moving to our side and becoming our exclusive doctor. I can't promise you'll have a feast, but at least you won't go hungry."
Ripples won't speak too directly, otherwise the gap will be too large, and it's easy for people to feel unbalanced.
"Oh! Really! Okay, I'll go back right away and pack up with my wife!"
The man's eyes lit up, and he immediately picked up the tattered cloth and book from the ground. He didn't even bother to discuss it, simply replied directly, as if afraid that Lian Ri would regret it.
"No rush, we still have a lap to go. Take your time packing up. In two hours, we'll meet at the entrance of the marketplace."
Okay! No problem!
The man rolled up his belongings and quickly left the marketplace.
The vendors saw the man and within two sentences, he had joined their group, and they immediately began promoting themselves.
"Beauty, do you still need a warm bed I am handsome and strong." Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"Little sister, I used to raise cats. You take me back home and I can take care of both you and the cat. Just feed me."
"Get out of here! Could a young lady like me be so shallow Before the disaster, I was a five-star chef. I could cook a full banquet."
"You don't even have ingredients, are you making it with ice"
Someone immediately objected.
Meanwhile, Yuan Chongming's face was as dark as ink. "What kind of people are these" he snorted coldly, stepping in front of Lian Yi and pushing back the crowd that kept getting closer. Then, he said in a frigid voice:
"No!"
Three words came out gritted through his teeth. The surroundings fell silent, and then when he looked at Yuan Chongming, most people could only lower their flags and drums. He's just too good!
Ripple pursed her lips and smiled, she touched Feng's head, then turned and continued walking forward.
Just as she had passed by five or six stalls, a questioning voice called out to Lian Yi.
"Ripple of sadness, little sister! Is that you"
Ripples turned her head and saw Dong Ziqing, who looked a little disheveled. Sun Peng was standing beside him. The two of them looked at Ripples, who was glamorous and could even afford to keep a cat, their eyes flickered.
"It's Dong Senior, long time no see! How did you guys end up like this"
A slight smirk played on her lips, as she drew the first blade.
Dong Ziqing and Sun Peng's faces stiffened, then they saw the two tall men who stopped beside her at the same time, their faces full of understanding.
"Junior sister, we're not capable, we can only barely scrape by, unlike you who is so capable, even going out with bodyguards."
Sun Peng said something implying a deeper meaning.
"Well, you're right! I got this bodyguard position through my own abilities. You guys can't compare."
Ripples said confidently.
Yuan Chongming and Li Qian looked calm. No matter what Lian Yi said, they just listened patiently. Starting from the natural disasters, they had taken advantage of Lian Yi many times. If being a bodyguard could return the favor, they would be more than happy to do so.
Dong Ziqing and Sun Peng's faces stiffened again. It was impossible to continue the conversation today.
Dong Zichen confirmed that Lian Yi had feelings for him before the disaster. He didn't look highly on her before, only having eyes for Mu Mianmian. But times have changed. When there are good days, who wants to starve and freeze Being able to cling to Lian Yi and live off her is a great thing for him, he was very happy.
So, he coughed lightly and said:
"Ripple, can I have a word with you"
"Go ahead! I wouldn't dare leave my bodyguard here."
The ripples continued.
Dong Ziqing glanced at the people around him, who were listening intently for gossip with their ears perked up. Then he spoke:
"Little sister, why don't you go take a look around first When you're leaving, I'll find you. There are some things that aren't suitable to say here."
He implied that what he said was important.
"Alright, I'll talk to you later when I leave."
Ripples flow like kindness, holding a whirlwind, continuing to browse the marketplace.
Only when the ripples disappeared did Sun Peng speak, "
"My junior sister is doing well, I don't know which big brother she followed."
"Make friends with her first, then talk."
How to put it together
"The place we found"
Dong Ziqing just hinted at it and didn't say much more.
Do you think she'll take the bait
"Just try it and you'll see, but you have to get into their team first."
Dong Ziqing whispered.
"Okay."
The two turned and rejoined the crowd, disappearing in an instant.
Ripple didn't care about the two at all, continuing to stroll leisurely. She bought some cotton clothes, pants, and shoes for Jia Yao. The little guy had grown taller, so his old clothes were a bit small.
Yuan Chongming saw the things Ripples had changed and touched his nose, once again feeling fortunate to have met such a good neighbor.
After strolling around the market, the three of them went to the entrance of the trading market and saw two people anxiously waiting there.
Liu Zidi stared intently at the entrance, afraid of missing someone. His wife Xu Fenfang, with a haggard face, didn't say much either. She trusted her husband very much. After so many years together, she knew him well.
"Fragrant, someone is here!"
Liu Zili immediately helped his elderly wife up, whispering in her ear with an unconcealable joy.
Who is it
Xu Fenfang asked, "I'm farsighted. If I get too close, I can't see clearly."
"That spirited young lady, wearing a white fur coat and with a little black cat in her arms."
Liu Zili immediately said.
"Well, I see! At a glance, it's clear you're capable."
Xu Fenfang has met countless people and her judgment is quite accurate. Previously, her husband didn't believe in her vision and wouldn't listen to her advice. After a natural disaster struck, he suffered a major setback. Now, he listens to everything she says.
The two of them walked up to the rippling surface, supporting each other.
"We are ready!"
Liu Zili just then realized he didn't even know how to address the person, so he could only say something awkwardly.
"Just call me Lianyi. Our captain is this one, Li Qian. This is my neighbor Yuan Chongming, and his nephew Tan Jiayao!"
Liàn Yī smiled and introduced his companions to the two people.
"Meow!"
The tornado is unhappy. Why wasn't the meow introduced
This is my little baby, named Black Whirlwind. You can just call him Whirlwind. He's very smart and understands human speech.
Ripples, after playing a few rounds of whirlwind, said with a smile,
"Hello everyone, I am Liu Zili. Before the disaster, I was a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner. This is my wife Xu Fenfang, she is the head nurse and knows basic first aid."
When introducing himself, Liu Zi introduced his wife's skills as well, hoping to earn more income.ipples smiled and asked:How are your investigations goingThe flower trembled its petals, twisting its stem slightly before telling the ripples about their findings:"Master, this Liang promises that sh...
