Chapter 598: On the Road

The mountain road is rugged and difficult to walk, but it is much better than when Li Yi and the others came here last time.

The rainy season has passed. There are no muddy sections along the way, and there is no threat of landslides or mudslides. Moreover, under the guidance of the villagers in Tongcang Village, we have found a faster, safer and more convenient passage.

Although this road is difficult to walk, at least it can be done quickly.

Li Yi and others set out at about 6:40 in the morning. If they walked fast, they could arrive in Tongcang Village on time at 8 or 9 o'clock.

As for the evening, the sun will not go down until after seven o'clock, which is good news. In addition, Li Yi himself is not in a hurry. He will be fine if he carries a flashlight or something like that. There are no wild animals near the outside of the mountains. At most Just some squirrels and the like.

In addition, some villagers in Tongcun Village plan to leave for the town at night, because it is too hot during the day. Starting at around eight or nine in the morning, the temperature will not start to drop until the sun sets at around six o'clock. Basically, After we went up to the town, we didn't come back. We stayed one night and set off again in the early morning of the next day.

There is nothing to say about the scenery of Shiwanda Mountain. The whole village is like a peach blossom garden. But the problem is that times have changed. Any independent existence that breaks away from the development trend of the group will eventually be eliminated. Humans are destined to be social animals. This is There is no way to change it.

Li Yi took Xu Qingyao and followed the three young people. Yu Huai's physical strength was undoubtedly the best. After all, he only relied on one pair of legs all day long. Li Yi's physical strength ranked second. After all, Li Yi also paid great attention to Physical care and exercise.

The remaining two young men didn't have much on them, so they walked a little easier.

The two young men were carrying some dried meat and the like, and one young man was carrying some seasonings, which were also in short supply.

After walking for nearly two kilometers, the mountain road gradually began to become rough. Li Yi saw Xu Qingyao's forehead sweating slightly, so he said loudly:

"Stop and rest for a while!"

Yu Huai also nodded when he heard this. The road ahead was getting harder and harder, but he usually walked to the three-kilometer mark to take a rest. The whole journey was a total of five kilometers of mountain road. It didn't mean that he could finish it in one breath. Finished walking.

The remaining two young men also stopped and shared the dried meat in their hands with everyone. It was very important to replenish salt and energy in time.

Yu Huai said with a smile:

"Did Miss Xu seldom climb mountains before?

Try to hold back some of your breath at the beginning, and don't listen if you can walk on the way. If you rest for a while, the road behind will be more difficult to walk, and you will be exhausted after one burst of energy. This principle also applies to climbing mountains! "

Li Yi nodded and said with a smile:

“It’s true that we didn’t climb mountains much in the past, and we didn’t have this opportunity over there.”

After saying this, Li Yi turned around and looked at Xu Qingyao who didn't want to eat anything. He held two pieces of beef jerky in his hand and said:

"Eat these and you will eat less in the morning. With such a huge physical exertion now, if you don't eat, your trip to Tongcang Village will be in vain!"

Xu Qingyao nodded, took the two pieces of beef jerky, and began to sit and chew slowly.

Li Yi turned around and looked at the Shiwanda Mountain in front of him. The lush appearance made people feel relaxed and happy.

"Are there many medicinal materials in this mountain?"

Hearing Li Yi's words, Yu Huai smiled and nodded, saying:

"As long as you walk inside, there is no shortage of medicinal materials. If you look down at the roadside, there are pieces of medicinal materials, but we can't recognize some of them. Grandpa Liang and Grandma Liang in the village are both old. You can't follow us up the mountain, so it's not convenient to identify medicinal materials..."

Li Yi nodded when he heard this. He had heard Chen Ruqing say this before. There were two surnames with the largest number of people in the village, one was the Hong family and the other was the Liang family. The two old Chinese medicine doctors with some skills were both from the Liang family. people.

The village chief is also a member of the Liang family, his name is Liang Zhuang, he is over forty years old, and Yu Huai has a rare foreign surname.

"I heard that these two old Chinese doctors don't have any successors, right?"

When Yu Huai heard the title of traditional Chinese medicine, he was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said in a deep voice:

"Originally, there was an heir, Xiao Hai's father, but something happened in the mountains..."

Xiaohai, when the name was mentioned, a mature child suddenly appeared in Li Yi's mind. The child who shared the fish with Xiaohai seemed to be named Dalin.

It turns out that the young man who had the accident was Xiao Hai's father!

Dalin lives next door to Xiaohai and often helps Xiaohai, an orphan and widowed mother, do whatever he can. In Li Yi's view, this child named Dalin is very responsible.

"Regarding the matter of finding a doctor in the village, Mayor Chen told me that I also asked a friend of mine in the hospital to see if I could find a traditional Chinese medicine doctor to come to the village to help everyone..."

After hearing Li Yi's words, Yu Huai immediately turned around and asked subconsciously:

"Really?"

Li Yi nodded and said with a smile:

"You must know the current problem better than me. The village cannot live without a doctor, so I am trying my best, but it has not been determined yet, so I still need to wait for a few days..."

Yu Huai immediately stepped forward and said:

"It's okay! As long as this matter can be settled, our village will be saved!"

"But if no one is willing to come..." Yu Huai scratched his head and said, "Actually, I can understand it. After all, we live in a remote country and don't even have electricity..."

Li Yi smiled, waved his hand and said:

"This is not a problem. Look, isn't there a teacher who goes to the village to teach the children how to read?

I'm sure someone will be willing to come! "

It is always necessary to give people some hope and a head start. To be honest, given the conditions in Tongxiang Village, it is really difficult to find a competent doctor. The conditions are all placed in front of you. Why don't people sit in a comfortable office? Traveling thousands of miles to a small village with no roads?

But Tan Zhenhua knows the situation in Tongcang Village. Since he agrees to talk, it means that the other party does not care about these difficult conditions.

With this, Li Yi felt confident.

After resting for a while, the group started taking action again, heading towards Tongcun Village.

Although Xu Qingyao was still sweating profusely, he had at least adapted to some of the rhythm. With the help of a few people, it was not a problem to persevere.

In Xu Qingyao's view, this is the path he has chosen, so he must stick to it.

Li Yi saw everything and nodded silently in his heart.
