Chapter 52: The Grass Boy

  "Thank you, Doctor Wu, you're a god!"

  "Thanks for the heavenly blessing!"

  Seeing Wu Rui drive away the rhinoceros, Ah Niu led the villagers to come forward and kowtow in gratitude. Each pair of eyes was filled with thanks, mixed with a hint of worship and admiration. With bare hands, he killed the ferocious rhinoceros, even its brain burst open. The gods are truly formidable!

  Wu Rui returned their courtesy, but knowing that the matter at hand was urgent, he hastily said in a loud voice: "Everyone please get up quickly! There are still people from our clan buried under the wooden house, let's work together to rescue them first!"

  "Ah Niu, have you found any wounded men?" Wu Rui suddenly asked Ah Niu, who was just about to turn around and leave.

  "Regarding Wu Dafu's words, several injured people have been found, and they were only scratched by the rhinoceros. The grass boy is already applying herbal medicine to them." Ah Niu hastily stopped in his tracks to answer.

  "Is it an herbal medicine?" Wu Rui's mind moved and he hastily instructed: "Quickly take me to have a look!"

  "Yes! Mr. Wu, please follow me!" Ah Niu hastily ran ahead to lead the way.

  In a stone cave behind the village, several injured people were placed on dry leaves on the ground, all of whom had non-trivial abrasions on their bodies, which were accidentally touched while avoiding rhinos. Fortunately, they were not seriously injured and now only need to stop bleeding.

  At this time, a 15 or 16-year-old boy in animal skin was shuttling among the wounded, carefully applying crushed plant leaves to their wounds after hitting them with stones, his expression stern and serious, not smiling at such a young age.

  "What is this grass boy's identity?" Wu Rui asked Aniu in a low voice behind him.

  Ah Niu hastily replied, "This Grass Boy's grandfather was our former clan leader and a grass doctor. He died from poisoning after personally testing medicine. His father inherited his legacy and also became a grass doctor in the clan. However, two years ago, he accidentally tested poisonous grass and passed away."

  Ah Niu sighed, but continued to add: "And this Cao Tong, because he followed his father to learn medicine from a young age, is also clever, and inherited the medical skills of both his father and grandfather. Although still young, he already knows many medicinal herbs, and whenever someone in the tribe gets injured, they let Cao Tong apply medicine."

  Wu Rui stood up with reverence, the sacrifices made by the Cao family for medicine were too great, but they all persisted without hesitation, isn't this the spirit of Shennong tasting a hundred herbs? Although he now possesses strong medical skills and has tried various medicinal properties of plants, it was done on the basis of predecessors' data and with the availability of antidotes.

  Moreover, they are all ordinary people and cannot be compared with themselves. In comparison, Wu Rui feels inferior to himself.

  This time on the planet of Ousen, Wu Rui's mission is to emulate Shennong's transmission of medical knowledge and farming techniques, with the former being the main focus. In just ten days, it's impossible to teach someone all the medical skills, after all, Wu Rui doesn't have any magical artifacts that can pass on knowledge. Not to mention him, even the entire Shennong clan or the entire cultivation world don't have such an artifact, and even the transmission jade cylinder has already lost its crafting technique... In short, the current state of Earth's cultivation world is as pathetic as it gets.

  So this time on the planet of Osen, Wu Rui can only guide them a bit, teach some basic medical principles and development directions. The grass boy in front of him is undoubtedly the most suitable person to learn medicine.

  Having understood this layer, Wu Rui didn't rush forward, but instead shifted his gaze to the herbs under Cao Tong's body. They were cypress leaves, which also exist on Earth and are still widely used today. In case of unexpected bleeding in the wild, simply chewing the cypress leaves and applying them to the wound will have a hemostatic effect.

  Wu Rui nodded, but then shook his head and walked over quietly, with Ah Niu naturally following closely behind.

  Nice to meet you...

  "Don't kowtow, you're injured!" Wu Rui hastily stopped them and comforted them to lie back down. As a doctor, he could tolerate ordinary people kneeling to him, but patients bowing to him was something he couldn't accept no matter what.

  "......Grass boy greets Wu Daifu the immortal!" The grass boy was a bit afraid, and with a nervous heart, he knelt down to Wu Rui, his voice somewhat stiff.

  Wu Rui didn't stop him and smiled faintly, saying: "Grass Boy, get up. From now on, you don't have to call me a god or anything, just... just call me Teacher!"

  Since he had intended to pass on the knowledge of Cao Tong medicine, Wu Rui naturally treated him specially, but he didn't have any intention of accepting an apprentice. Half a master, it's also reasonable to call him a teacher.

  Although he didn't know what the teacher was made of, Cao Tong didn't dare disobey and called out with a red face: "Ol...teacher."

  "Uh-huh!" Wu Rui nodded slightly and then shifted his gaze to the injured people, saying with a hint of instruction: "Using this cypress leaf can stop bleeding, but it won't be very effective because their wounds are too large, applying this cypress leaf will greatly reduce its effect. Moreover, this cypress leaf is cold in nature, treating such large-area wounds may even produce side effects."

  "Ah……" Cao Tong exclaimed, Wu Rui's words left him somewhat bewildered and at a loss for what to do. After all, from his grandfather's generation onwards, three generations had used this leaf to stop bleeding. Now that the immortal said it was no good, he found it hard to accept for a moment. But thinking back carefully to his past experiences of treating injuries for others, this hemostatic leaf indeed sometimes failed to take effect.

  However, Cao Tong was indeed very clever. With a god in front of him, why not take the opportunity to ask for some medical skills? He immediately asked with humility: "Wu... teacher, what should I use to treat their injuries?"

  "Hmm..." Wu Rui nodded, very satisfied with Cao Tong's eagerness to learn. He smiled faintly and said, "In a situation like this, the Immortal Crane Grass is more suitable."

  "Is it a sacred grass? Is it an immortal grass?" The look on the young boy's face was instantly filled with disappointment, he was just a ordinary child, where could he find such a thing?

  "It's not a rare herb, just a name, and this crane grass is found in the Rhinoceros Forest!" Wu Rui smiled as he explained, and directly took out a lush and thriving crane grass from his storage ring.

  Earlier in the cliff valley, Wu Rui had discovered this crane grass. If it were an ordinary product, he would naturally look down on it. After all, crane grass is available all over the world, and he didn't have to waste his time here. However, the crane grass in the valley seemed to have been there for some years, with one plant being a big handful. He believed that the medicinal effect would be very strong, so Wu Rui brought some along, not expecting to use it so soon.

  "Ah, is this the legendary Xianhe grass?" Seeing the plant in Wu Rui's hand, Cao Tong was somewhat surprised, because he had seen this kind of plant before, but didn't know that it actually had hemostatic properties, and his eyes were slightly skeptical.

  "Hehe, little guy quickly take it and mash it up, then apply it to their wounds." Wu Rui felt amused, this little guy actually still suspected himself!

  Wu Rui didn't realize that he was only a few years older than Cao Tong, yet he was acting like an old man calling him "young fellow"... It seems that having been misunderstood as a god for so long, Wu Rui had unknowingly 'entered the role'.

  "Yes, teacher." Cao Tong was delighted to hear this and quickly went to smash the Xianhecao with a smile. The people behind him, including Ah Niu, looked at each other with envy, thinking that Cao Tong was truly lucky to have received the attention of the gods. However, they were also genuinely happy for Cao Tong, as he and his ancestors had made great contributions to the tribe, and the people in the tribe were truly grateful to this family.

  The little boy's movements were very quick, and in a short while he had pounded out a lump of rice paste. He didn't mind getting dirty, and he scooped it up in his hands to apply the medicine to an old man in front of him. The old man had been scraped on his back, with a large wound that was still bleeding profusely, staining his entire back red with blood.

  At this time, the grass boy who was applying medicine couldn't help but pause for a moment, almost exclaiming: "Wow, so fast!"

  "What's so fast?" The cow next to him couldn't help but look over, and then he also exclaimed in surprise: "It actually stopped bleeding right away!"

  No? The Xianhecao was just applied to the wound, and the gushing blood suddenly stopped. Such a miraculous effect made Caotong stare with wide eyes in disbelief.

  "Hmm... not bad, this Xianhecao is already several hundred years old, its medicinal properties are very strong, not only can it quickly stop bleeding, but also accelerate the healing of wounds..." Wu Rui nodded repeatedly, briefly analyzing the principles of Xianhecao for Caotong, as well as some other effects.

  Wu Rui was also somewhat surprised, the medicinal effect of this Xianhecao was much stronger than he had imagined. If it were to be ground into a powder or made into a medicinal liquid, in the mortal world, it would absolutely be considered a divine medicine.

  After discovering the magical effect of Xianhecao, Caotong was overjoyed and didn't feel tired at all. He kept pounding medicine and treating several injured people. The result was delightful, and the efficacy of Xianhecao was guaranteed. "The medicine stopped the bleeding," which made Caotong's face bloom with a full smile.

  But just then, a hurried cry for help came from outside: "Grass Boy, come and save someone! Stone has been smashed unconscious, hurry up and save him!"
