Chapter 510 - 509, Generous_1
"Shaman, why is this child still complaining of a stomachache?" A female orc held a little cub in her arms. The small thing lay in her mother’s arms, crying miserably with tears and snot, a pitiful sight.
The old shaman frowned on his aged face: "The herbal medicine was just administered, it’s not going to take effect immediately."
As Shaman Ji Nuan approached, the surrounding Orcs dispersed: "Huh? It’s Shaman Ji Nuan from the Watson Tribe."
The old shaman’s eyes brightened when he saw Ji Nuan walk slowly over. He rushed forth and said: "Shaman Ji Nuan, come here! I am the shaman of the Gray Bear Tribe. We don’t know what happened to this cub, she has been crying of stomach pain since early morning. It appears to be very painful. We tried herbal medicine, but it doesn’t seem to work."
Seeing the sincere worry on the old shaman’s face, Ji Nuan nodded and squatted next to the little cub. She examined her tongue and then lifted the beast skin covering the cub’s stomach. The cub’s belly was swollen and rock-hard, and the little one wailed miserably at the slightest touch, clearly in severe pain.
Ji Nuan beckoned, and her assistant came over with a medicine basket, the old shaman watched with eager anticipation.
She took out an herb with two-colored leaves from the basket and gave a leaf to the cub’s mother: "Let her eat this, and she will feel better soon."
The female orc accepted the leaf gratefully from the renowned Shaman Ji Nuan and gave it to the cub: "Quick, eat this. Once you eat this herb, you won’t feel pain anymore."
The tear-stricken cub looked at Ji Nuan and then at her mother, her tiny mouth accepted the leaf, and with furrowed brows, she chewed and swallowed it.
Ji Nuan then started massaging the cub’s stomach, which made her cry out sharply; the cub’s mother looked anxiously at Ji Nuan.
Ji Nuan gave her a reassuring look: "Don’t worry, the cub just ate too much, too quickly and couldn’t digest it. Her stomach is so hard - a massage will help."
Right after Ji Nuan finished her sentence, a strange smell came from under the cub. Ji Nuan stood up, smiling: "Take her to squat in the bush."
The female orc, her face filled with joy, picked up the cub and dashed off towards the bushes.
Just a moment later, the sound of ’plop plop’ could be heard from behind the bushes, followed by an unpleasant stench.
The old shaman’s eyes were gleaming brighter than ever while looking at Ji Nuan: "Shaman Ji Nuan, you are truly amazing. No wonder all the cubs in the tribe are praising you."
Ji Nuan waved her hand: "This herb was discovered by Grandma Shaman of our tribe. We use it when our cubs have eaten too much and have a stomachache."
She then handed a leaf to the old shaman: "You can collect and store some when you have time. Dry it, grind it into powder and keep it. It works just the same when mixed with water."
The old shaman was taken aback: "This... I can... You’re just going to tell me this?"
Ji Nuan smiled: "These are common ingredients; there’s no need to keep them a secret."
At her words, the surrounding Orcs cast admiring glances at this young shaman.
After a while, the female orc came out holding the little cub, whose cheeks were now rosy. The cub seemed relieved after relieving herself and stopped wailing about her stomachache, curling up obediently in her mother’s arms.
Ji Nuan smiled and advised: "In the future, make sure to chew food thoroughly before swallowing, and boil water in a stone pot and let it cool before giving it to the cub to drink. It would be best not to let her drink raw water."
