Chapter 423: Seeking Medical Care

With Lu Ze and Gu Han controlling the ewe, the rest was much easier.
Lin Suisui controlled her strength very well and her movements were very swift. She didn’t let the ewe suffer too much as she pushed the lamb back and began to adjust its position.
With her experience, it didn’t take long for the little lamb to be born.
However, unlike human babies, there was another problem after the lamb was born—it had to learn how to stand up.
However, Lin Suisui couldn’t help the wet lamb in front of her.
Although the ewe cloud had already exhausted its full strength, it still didn’t rest. It licked the cub’s body carefully and used its head to gently support its weak body as it tried its best to stand up.
Lin Suisui waited patiently at the side as she watched the little lamb try it bit by bit. In the end, it didn’t disappoint. Under the expectant gazes of her, Lu Ze and Gu Han, it stood up successfully…
…..
This outcome was the best.
Not only did Black Cloud Pearl cheer happily, but even her parents bowed to Lin Suisui in gratitude again.
No one had expected this.
The lamb that they originally thought was beyond saving actually ended up safe and sound!
This was an unimaginable outcome.
For these herdsmen who lived on the grassland, this was a miracle.
Lin Suisui used her own method to silence all the voices of doubt in the tribe.
“Heh, I didn’t expect you guys to really have a way to save that ewe.” Gu Han didn’t expect Lin Suisui to give him such a surprise.
He told the public that Lin Suisui was an envoy from Tengri and a goddess.
However, they needed some evidence to prove that she was a goddess. To these simple and honest herdsmen, there wasn’thing more convincing than reviving the dead.
With this, when the leaders of the surrounding tribes came over, he would have more confidence in convincing them to support him in finding Zadeh.
“I was just lucky.” Lin Suisui looked at the mother and son who were snuggling up and licking each other as she replied to Gu Han in a low voice, “If I had come a little later, or if you hadn’t helped me control the ewe and suppress its resistance, things wouldn’t have been able to go so smoothly.”
“But this isn’t the power of Tengri.” Gu Han looked at Lin Suisui and thought for a moment before suddenly saying, “If, I mean, if we can cooperate smoothly this time, can you teach our clansmen medicine?”
Seeing Lin Suisui looking at him in shock, Gu Han also sensed that his request was a little presumptuous, so he quickly explained, “Actually, this idea has been in my mind for a long time.
You’ve been in this tribe for a few days and have seen the situation of our tribe.
To be honest, my brother’s tribe is quite rich, but even in a tribe like theirs, most of them still have to tough things out after falling sick.
If they really couldn’t take it anymore, they could only ask a witch doctor for help.
However, the witch doctors here are equivalent to the empire’s fortune tellers. They look impressive, but in fact, they’re very incompetent.”
As Gu Han accompanied Lu Ze and Lin Suisui back, he said, “If the patient was cured, they would say that the patient received Tengri’s blessing and forgiveness. If he wasn’t cured, they would say that the patient was disloyal and committed too many sins, so he was unable to be forgiven by Tengri, who punished him and took him away.”
“But you northern barbarians also have really powerful witch doctors.” Lin Suisui didn’t completely agree with Gu Han.
She knew that the northern barbarians actually had powerful doctors as well.
For example, the person who wrote the booklet she had been reading must be an expert in medicine.
Since there was such a person among the northern barbarians, if Gu Han really wanted to promote medicine, wouldn’t it be easier to ask these people for help than to look for a foreigner like her?
“But they won’t take an ordinary tribe like ours seriously.” Gu Han said as he scratched his head. Perhaps because Lu Ze and Lin Suisui had already seen him in his most disheveled appearance, he didn’t hide it anymore and simply revealed it.
“I’ve looked for a few witch doctors in the Imperial Court previously, but they rejected me.
Not to mention the witch doctors in the Imperial Court, even the witch doctors in our tribe rarely take the initiative to help the herdsmen of other tribes.
They usually had extremely high prestige in their tribe, so they don’t care about commoners.
“In addition, unlike the empire, the northern barbarians don’t have reclaimed land to grow food. Most of the people live in the same region for generations.
People of the grassland live on horseback.
They had no fixed residence and they were always on the go, like cattle and sheep.
Many herders have never taken medicine or seen a doctor in their entire lives. That’s why I was wondering if you could help me teach my people some medical skills.”
“There’s something I want to ask you.” Upon hearing Gu Han’s plea, Lu Ze, who had been silent at the side, suddenly asked Gu Han suspiciously, “Actually, many doctors from the empire came to live with the northern barbarians previously, but I remember that most of those doctors were executed by the northern barbarians as heretics.
“Can you northern barbarians truly accept our empire’s medical skills?”
“We don’t have to be too proficient. We just want to master the identification of some herbs and some basic methods to treat common illnesses.
I won’t let your empire’s people take the risk.
My idea is that if you agree, Madam Liu, after things stabilize, I’ll send people from the various tribes who are interested in learning such medical skills to the empire.
I heard that you opened a medical center in Cloud Mountain City that also accepts apprentices. In that case, just treat them like ordinary apprentices.”
Since Gu Han made this request, he naturally thought of the arrangements long ago.
He also knew that his clansmen might not be able to accept medicine at first, so he didn’t require them to be as proficient as Madam Liu. They only needed to be able to use common herbs on the grassland to treat ordinary illnesses..
