"I'll go right away. Miss, please wait for a moment. I'll be back soon." Then, he sprinted off.
The process of applying the needles took some time. Doctor He was a little tired of watching Schilling's Shadow repeat the process, so he closed his eyes and waited. However, he didn't hear any exasperation from Schilling's Shadow. Instead, he heard an excited tone from Schilling's Shadow. Doctor He opened his eyes suspiciously.
The first thing he saw was Schilling's Shadow's calm, calm, and even confident eyes. Doctor He was stunned for a moment, then lowered his gaze with a soft snort. The old woman's face seemed to have regained some color.
Normal people wouldn't notice this at all, but it was a different story for a doctor or an alchemist.
He glanced at Schilling's Shadow in astonishment, then shifted his gaze to the old woman's chest. Even though the skin was still festering to the bone, the number of maggots on it had clearly decreased by more than half!
He widened his mouth in astonishment and stared at Schilling's Shadow in disbelief. "You, you … you're the one who pushed them away, aren't you?" He was still struggling on the verge of death. He couldn't believe that this was the result of his medical practice.
Schilling's Shadow gave him a disdainful look and ignored him.
At this moment, Schilling's Shadow returned with a torch. Schilling's Shadow walked to the side and casually plucked a palm-sized leaf. He picked up the maggots with two small wooden sticks and placed them on the leaf. Then, he had Schilling's Shadow roast them with fire.
Puff, puff, puff. Accompanied by the sound of the fire burning, the faint smell of barbecue permeated the air. It even smelled a little fragrant.
He Yaoxian greedily sniffed and licked his lips. The more he smelled the aroma, the more he wanted to eat.
His gaze inadvertently swept across the white maggots on the old woman's chest.
"Blergh —" He was having a great appetite just a second ago, but the next second, he couldn't stop vomiting. He actually thought that the maggots smelled good. How disgusting!
The brawny man stood by the side and looked at him with a puzzled expression. He did not understand what Doctor He was trying to do.
When the last maggot rolled down the old woman's chest, Schilling's Shadow immediately asked the man to wipe the chewed green leaf on the old woman's chest. Then, she nimbly tore off her white undershirt and skillfully bandaged the old woman's wound. Her skillful movements made it seem like she had done this thousands of times. The old woman was tossed and turned in her hands, but the bandage never slipped off. This time, the man truly had a whole new level of respect for Schilling's Shadow.
Seeing that the maggots had been roasted to a golden brown, Xi Nuoying quickly wrapped them up with the tender green leaves that she had plucked earlier. Finally, she tied them up tightly with grass before handing them over to the burly man.
"Feed this to her when she wakes up."
Doctor He swallowed a mouthful of saliva in disgust just imagining the scene.
The brawny man was undoubtedly grateful to Schilling's Shadow, but gratitude was one thing, and trust was another. Although Schilling's Shadow's ability had impressed him, this conclusion … He looked at Doctor He.
Doctor He coughed softly and raised his chin. He glanced at Schilling's Shadow from the corner of his eyes, but he did not say anything.
As long as he did not trust her, the brawny man would not trust her. In the end, he still won.
Schilling's Shadow shrugged and said to the brawny man, "I've done what I can. As for whether you believe me or not, it's up to you." She turned to leave after saying this.
Doctor He was dumbfounded by her nonchalant attitude. He could not help but speak up.
