Chapter 389 - 388, Can We Swap? _1
The old shaman rubbed his hands together, beaming a shy grin, before he approached, "This one, Ji Nuan, is this lad going to lie on this rock today?"
Ji Nuan nodded, "It would be best if he stays here and keeps still today. You can pitch a tent around the rock for him so that he doesn’t catch a cold. Once the anti-inflammatory herbal decoction is ready, feed it to him. After that, his recovery would depend on his own constitution."
The old shaman nodded jovially, then turned abruptly stern, "Shi Jie, heard that? Pitch a tent for this lad."
Shi Jie twitched his lips, "Uncle Shaman, I have already asked the Orcs to fetch the beast skins..."
"But hey, I’m a clan leader now, can’t I get a little respect?"
Very satisfied, the old shaman nodded and then turned towards Ji Nuan, "Lass, what was that magic powder you fed that lad? It made the pain go away instantly."
Ji Nuan replied with a smile, "I made it by mixing a few different herbs. Once it’s used, it can immediately alleviate the pain. In fact, the powder can also be applied directly onto the wound."
"When applied directly to the wound, the Orcs don’t faint but remain awake; however, they don’t feel any pain where the powder was sprinkled."
Suddenly, the old Shaman and the Orcs around him looked at Ji Nuan in complete awe, as if they were looking at an oversized Beast God Fruit.
"Can you trade this medicinal powder?" Meng Tai asked, looking at Ji Nuan from the side.
Ji Nuan smiled bitterly and shook her head, "Do you know why I didn’t directly apply the powder on the Orc’s wound just now?"
Meng Tai and the other Orcs all shook their heads together.
Ji Nuan sighed, "One of the herbs needed to make this powder only grows a few days before the onset of winter, and only for a brief 5 days. Other times, it’s impossible to collect."
"Last winter, our tribe had to look for a missing tribesman, and we found these herbs on the hill behind the village. After realizing the effect of this herb, I asked the Orcs to help me find more, and they were able to bring some back every day until they couldn’t find any after five days."
Her young, fair face was filled with regret and heartache.
She pointed at Chief Ge Xing’s bulging chest, "Now, aside from what I just took out, there’s barely enough left to fill half of the small jar in the Clan Leader’s pocket."
Both Meng Tai and the old shaman looked disappointed. This magical powder, as expected, was either difficult to make or the ingredients were hard to find.
"Shaman..."
Ji Nuan looked up at the Orc who was calling her.
The Orc nervously rubbed his hands together, "Three of us suffered bone injuries during this outing. We heard that you can heal bone injuries, can... can you..."
Ji Nuan had just finished treating another Orc and was resting. The Orcs felt guilty asking her for help again.
However, Ji Nuan’s brow furrowed immediately, "Bring them over quickly."
Ge Xing looked somewhat annoyed at the Orc, then said to Ji Nuan, "You just took a break not long ago, can your body handle this?"
Ji Nuan nodded, "I’ll be fine. Uncle, have you forgotten? Orcs have a strong recovery ability. If we continue to delay, their bones will heal just like that and we will have to re-break them for treatment. Why make them suffer again?"
