The two of them sat on the podium, and Yiqing began to ask about the situation in the church over the past few months.

Unlike his unruly and disobedient appearance in the past, he now looked extremely serious and his tone was intimidating.

No wonder Yi Qingsheng, as the son of the former leader, could directly inherit this position. Tao Tao lowered her eyes and looked at the people below. It turned out that these people did not dare to have any objections. It seemed that they had seen Yi Qingsheng's strength.

After finishing the discussion, Yiqing went back to the study to listen to Si Tang's report on more secret situations. Tao Tao did not go, saying that she was reading a medical book.

As she walked on the street, many people looked at her, seemingly hesitating whether to approach and talk to her.

A slightly older woman, holding the hand of a little girl, followed Tao Tao all the way.

"Um...are you looking at me?" Tao Tao suddenly turned around, looked at the two of them, and pointed at herself.

The two were stunned and were about to kneel down trembling. Tao Tao was shocked and hurried forward to help them up.

"What's wrong? Do you need help?" Tao Tao asked.

"Madam Young Master!" The older one spoke first, "Please save my husband. He has been ill for a long time and is dying..."

She gradually stopped crying and her tears fell down.

"Don't worry. Can't even the doctors in the church cure her?" Tao Tao was a little anxious, but still asked her in a gentle tone.

"They won't treat me..." the woman cried. Tao Tao felt her hands getting colder and the bones on them were getting more painful.

"Madam Young Master, I heard that you were the one who saved all the people in Taoyuan City. Do you have any way to go and see my man? He is the only pillar of our family." Her eyes were filled with tears and her words were slurred.

"Okay, take me there first." Tao Tao said, "But you have to wait for me to go back and get the medicine box."

After saying that, she lifted her skirt and ran outside. At this moment, she really hated herself for not having the skill of Qinggong.

"Tao... No, Madam! Where is the young master?" Ah Shuo greeted her with a smile, holding a wooden stick in his hand.

Tao Tao's eyes lit up and she slapped her head suddenly, scaring A Shuo.

She was really confused, this was the Qianji Sect! Almost everyone knew martial arts!

"A Shuo, go back home and get my medicine box!" she said anxiously.

"Ah...oh oh." Ah Shuo agreed repeatedly, threw down the stick and flew away.

After Ah Shuo left, Tao Tao called another person and asked him to call the doctor from the religion.

The woman took her to a remote courtyard. Tao Tao looked around and found that although the place was simple, it was very clean.

She pushed the door open and walked in. The woman's husband was a man in his fifties, lying on the bed with pale lips. If you didn't pay attention to his chest rising and falling due to breathing, you would think he was a corpse.

Tao Tao stepped forward immediately, first leaned over to listen to his breathing, then opened his eyelids and took a look.

She was startled and pulled back the quilt. Under the quilt, there was a palm-long wound on his leg, which was sticky with blood clots and other things. The dried blood on the outside had turned black.

"What's going on? Why is no one coming to deal with it?" Tao Tao's tone became stern when it came to matters within her ability.

The woman didn't say anything. She pursed her lips and rubbed her hands nervously.

Tao Tao glanced at her and seeing that she didn't seem to want to say anything, she decided to take care of his wound first before asking.

A doctor came later. When he saw the young master's wife treating the servant herself, he just stood there motionless.

"Little girl, go get a basin of water with your mother." Tao Tao said, opening the medicine box and taking out the hemostatic medicine and gauze.

She looked at the doctor again: "Go get a bottle of wine and some clean cloths."

Seeing that they were all moving, Tao Tao tore off her skirt to use as strips of cloth, tied the somewhat cumbersome sleeves on, and made a ball of cloth.

The man on the bed heard the noise and opened his eyes dazedly. Tao Tao immediately explained: "Don't be afraid, I'm a doctor, here to treat the injury on your leg."

She placed the medicine next to her and warned, "It might hurt a lot in a while. You can choose to bite this cloth or scream."

Tears flashed in the man's cloudy eyes. He slowly stretched out his hand. Seeing this, Tao Tao handed him the ball of cloth.

She looked around. The room was rather dim. There were candles lit on the table, but she needed to use the candles for other things.

The woman brought some water, and the doctor brought a bottle of wine and a clean white cloth.

"Madam Young Master, do you have any solution?" the woman asked tremblingly.

Tao Tao nodded and said, "Just stand over there and follow my instructions."

The two were shocked by her words. Although they had heard about her deeds in Taoyuan City in the past, when they saw her today, they found that she seemed to be just a simple and beautiful girl. She spoke in a soft voice and was always led by the young master. They didn't expect that when the critical moment came, the oppressive tone of her voice would be no less than that of their young master.

The woman stood back obediently, but the doctor was still a little hesitant.

He was a little worried, afraid that Tao Tao would blame her for not coming to treat him.

He made up an excuse to go to the toilet. Tao Tao was still washing things. When he raised his eyes, he couldn't see anyone.

She withdrew her gaze coldly, and just at that moment A Shuo came back.

Tao Tao didn't dare to delay. Without saying a word, she took out the delicate surgical knife and put it on the fire to sterilize it.

"A Shuo, hold him down for a while, I'm afraid he will move around." Tao Tao said.

Ah Shuo nodded and walked to the bed in a few steps.

"Auntie, you have to hold his legs down, you must hold them down!" Tao Tao said in a firm tone, and the woman hurriedly held down his feet.

Tao Tao took the bottle, took a deep breath, and poured it directly on him.

The stinging pain from the alcohol continued to burn the man's wounds, and the moment he fell down, the man tried to move on the bed, like a carp somersault, but he was restrained by two people and he didn't have much strength. He could only bite the cloth and let out a whimpering sound of pain.

The woman couldn't help but shed tears and closed her eyes not to look at him.

"It's a knife wound!" Tao Tao was shocked. The wound was on the leg. If it was deeper, the bone would be visible. How did he cut his own leg?

She didn't have time to think so much now. Tao Tao immediately picked up the small pliers and picked out the debris mixed in the blood and flesh. The wound was very deep, and if she was not careful she would touch the raised skin and flesh on both sides.

But the man unexpectedly did not twist. His chest rose and fell rapidly, and his forehead was covered with beads of sweat because of the pain.

After cleaning, Tao Tao began to sew him up.

Ah Shuo suddenly remembered that Tao Tao had sewed Yi An's wound in the same way when they were in Zi Yang City. It seemed that times had really changed.

The sewing process was extremely painful. Without anesthesia, the man could only endure the pain of his skin being pierced. Tao Tao also had to grit his teeth to complete it. The woman dared not open her eyes. When the little girl saw this scene, she hid in the corner, covering her mouth and crying silently.

Fortunately, there were no other accidents. After the wound was sutured, Tao Tao used a cloth dipped in wine to apply it on the wound as iodine, and then carefully wrapped it with gauze.

She heaved a long sigh of relief and wiped the sweat off her face with her sleeve. Her face was a little pale and her hair was messy, but she did not look disheveled at all. Instead, she had a kind of messy beauty.

"Okay, change the gauze every half a day to keep the wound dry." Tao Tao took out a roll of gauze from the box and put it on the table.

"Come with me later and get some supplements. He has lost a lot of blood and needs to be replenished."

After saying that, Tao Tao placed a thicker piece of clean cloth under the man's legs and tidied up the surroundings.

The woman hurried forward to stop her, crying and thanking her: "Madam... Thank you so much, if it weren't for you, I don't know if my old man would still be alive..."

Tao Tao patted her back and comforted her softly: "It's okay, this is what I can do. Now can you tell me why the doctor didn't treat him, and how his wound was caused?"

The woman sobbed and raised her head. She seemed to be about to muster up great courage, but the courage that had just emerged was blocked by the figure at the door. She swallowed and lowered her head.
