Traveling through time and space: Medical skills travel the world

Chen Fang was walking on the road, followed by her follower Xiaoqing. From time to time, she looked back at this girl from modern times, her heart full of doubts and awe.

"Miss, are you really going to ask the villagers about this?" Xiao Qing asked softly, frowning slightly.

"Of course, only by understanding their lives can we find a solution." Chen Fang answered firmly, his eyes looking through the trees and falling on a small hut in front.

They approached the hut. A middle-aged woman sat on the stone steps in front of the door. Her face was full of wrinkles and her eyes were tired. She was stirring a pot of porridge with a wooden stick in her hand. When she saw Chen Fang coming, she was stunned for a moment, then stood up and bowed respectfully: "Girl, where are you from?"

"My name is Chen Fang, and I come from a town far away. I heard that the villagers here live in hardship, so I came here to find out more." Chen Fang responded with a smile, her eyes gentle but firm.

"Life is really not easy." The woman sighed, with a hint of helplessness in her eyes. "Our village suffers from drought every year, and the harvest is poor. Life is getting harder and harder."

"So what is your main source of income now?" Chen Fang continued to ask, feeling a little uneasy.

"We mainly rely on farming, and occasionally raise some chickens and ducks. But with the rising prices in recent years, it is simply not enough to support our family." There was helplessness in the woman's voice, as if it was an endless sigh about life.

"How many children do you have?" Chen Fang asked with concern.

"I have two sons and a daughter. My eldest son is already 17 years old and often works away from home. My second son is still in school, and my daughter helps out at home," the woman said, with a hint of pride in her eyes. "But the children's tuition fees have become a burden, which is really worrying."

"Then what do you think you need most?" Chen Fang's eyes were firm, as if he was thinking about something.

"What we need most is water." The woman's eyes flashed with desire, "If we can have water, we won't have to worry about farming, and our children's education will also be guaranteed."

"Water source?" Chen Fang thought, "Is there any river or spring nearby?"

"There is a small river, but it is far from the village and the water quality is not good. We can only rely on rainwater and well water, and the well water is often not enough." The woman shook her head, her face full of worry.

At this time, Xiaoqing couldn't help but interrupt: "Have you ever considered building a canal or digging a new well?"

"Our village has few people and insufficient funds. It will cost a lot of money to repair the canal." The woman sighed, as if she had become accustomed to this helpless life.

"If I can help you raise some funds, do you think this problem can be solved?" Chen Fang suddenly asked.

The woman was stunned for a moment, and a glimmer of hope flashed in her eyes: "Girl, are you really willing to help us?"

"Of course, I will do my best." Chen Fang nodded firmly, "I will go to the town to find people who can help and bring back some resources."

"Thank you, girl!" The woman was so moved that tears welled up in her eyes. "We villagers are really grateful to you!"

"This is what I should do." Chen Fang smiled slightly, and a warm feeling welled up in her heart. She thought of her mission, which was not only to change her own life, but also to help those who were struggling in difficult situations.

At this moment, there was a noise in the distance, several children were chasing and playing in the fields, their laughter was crisp and pleasant. Chen Fang's eyes were attracted to it, and she thought: "Are your children playing outside?"

"Yes, children always like to run outside." A smile appeared on the woman's face, as if she was infected by the children's happiness.

"Can I play with them?" Chen Fang suggested, with excitement gleaming in her eyes.

"Of course, girl!" the woman agreed readily, and the sadness on her face seemed to be temporarily put aside at this moment.

Chen Fang walked over to the children and saw them running in the field, her heart was filled with warmth. She squatted down and played hide-and-seek with them, and their laughter echoed in the air, as if dispelling all the haze.

Xiaoqing watched silently from the side, and her admiration for Chen Fang deepened. This girl was not only intelligent, but also had a warm heart.

She decided to visit Zhou Shan, the village doctor. She heard that Zhou Shan was a skilled doctor and the villagers all praised her highly.

"Miss, are you really going to look for Zhou Shan?" Xiao Qing asked from the side, with a hint of worry in her eyes.

"Yes, I want to learn about her medical skills, maybe I can provide some help to the villagers." Chen Fang said firmly, with a glimmer of hope in her eyes.

The two walked along the path, passing a green field, and saw a simple medical clinic in the distance. Chen Fang gently pushed open the door, and the house exuded a herbal fragrance. There were several prescriptions hanging on the wall, and various medicinal materials were placed on the table.

"Welcome, what can I do for you?" A gentle voice came from inside the house. Chen Fang looked up and saw a woman in her twenties, wearing a simple dress, with a pretty face and a smart look in her eyes.

"Hello, my name is Chen Fang, and I came to visit you specially." Chen Fang smiled and developed a liking for this female doctor.

"My name is Zhou Shan, nice to meet you." Zhou Shan came forward, her eyes showing curiosity, "Are you a stranger? I heard you are from a town?"

"Yes, I just came to this village and wanted to learn about the life and medical skills here." Chen Fang answered seriously.

"Medical skills?" Zhou Shan's eyes lit up. "Do you have any research on medicine?"

"I have learned some medical knowledge in modern times. Although it is not professional, I understand some basic theories and treatment methods." Chen Fang said, feeling a little nervous. After all, this is an unfamiliar field.

"That's great!" Zhou Shan said excitedly, "Modern medical knowledge must be very advanced. I have always hoped to learn more. Would you be willing to teach me something?"

"Of course." Chen Fang nodded, secretly happy in her heart. Being able to share knowledge with Zhou Shan was exactly what she wanted.

"Please sit down. I have some herbs here. Can you help me identify them?" Zhou Shan enthusiastically invited Chen Fang to sit down, and then took several herbs from the shelf.

Chen Fang observed carefully and identified them one by one: "This is Astragalus, which can enhance immunity; this is Angelica, which is suitable for regulating women's bodies; and these are herbs used for anti-inflammatory."

"Wow, that's amazing! I usually only know some commonly used medicinal herbs, but I didn't expect you to know so much about them." Zhou Shan said in surprise, her eyes full of admiration.

"Actually, I've only read some books and don't have any practical experience." Chen Fang said modestly, "However, I can tell you some modern treatment methods, such as some simple first aid measures."

"First aid measures?" Zhou Shan's eyes sparkled. "That's very important, especially in the village. Many people's conditions worsen because they don't get timely treatment."

"Yes." Chen Fang nodded. "For example, if someone is accidentally injured, you can stop the bleeding first, then bandage it to keep the wound clean and prevent infection."

Zhou Shan listened carefully, full of admiration: "Your knowledge is so valuable, I have never thought about this."

"Thank you for your compliment." Chen Fang smiled slightly, feeling warm in her heart. "Actually, I also hope to learn more about traditional medicine from you."

"No problem, I'll try my best to teach you." Zhou Shan responded excitedly, with a hint of determination in her eyes, "We can learn from each other and make progress together."

The two were chatting happily when they heard hurried footsteps outside the door. A villager rushed in breathlessly, his face full of anxiety: "Doctor Zhou, come quickly! Xiao Zhang from the east end of the village fell and was bleeding a lot!"

"What?" Zhou Shan stood up immediately, looking serious, "Take me there!"

"I'll go too!" Chen Fang followed without hesitation, with a sense of responsibility in her heart.

The three of them quickly ran to the east of the village. On the way, Zhou Shan kept asking about the situation: "How is the injury? Is there anyone to help?"

"He fell down by himself, and the people around him didn't get there in time." The villager answered anxiously, with helplessness in his voice.

"Don't worry, I'll do my best." Zhou Shan comforted her. Although her face was nervous, there was a determination in her eyes.

Arriving at the scene, Chen Fang saw Xiao Zhang lying on the ground, his face pale, blood flowing from his legs. Zhou Shan immediately squatted down and began to check his injuries, calmly commanding: "First, take him to a cool place, and try not to let him lose consciousness."

Chen Fang quickly worked with the villagers to carry Xiao Zhang to the shade of a nearby tree. Zhou Shan began to treat the wound, while Chen Fang watched silently from the side, secretly admiring Zhou Shan's calmness and professionalism.

"Can you help me find some clean cloth? And water!" Zhou Shan commanded calmly.

"I'll go right away!" Chen Fang responded immediately and quickly ran to the nearby stream to get clean water and clean cloth.

"Thank you, Chen Fang!" Zhou Shan took the water and quickly cleaned Xiao Zhang's wound. Her movements were skillful and quick. Chen Fang silently cheered her on, and her admiration for this female doctor deepened.

After some emergency treatment, Xiao Zhang's wound was finally under control. Zhou Shan breathed a sigh of relief and turned to Chen Fang and said, "Thank you. Without your help, I might not have been able to handle it so quickly."

"This is what I should do." Chen Fang smiled, feeling a sense of accomplishment. "Let's work together to make the lives of the villagers better."

"That's right!" Zhou Shan's eyes flashed with determination, "We can learn together and make progress together!"
