Chapter 185 Healing Wounds

A soft sofa can never be as comfortable as a bed. Yang Chen turned over in his half-awake state, feeling a little short of breath.

He groggily opened his eyes, his blurry vision meeting a pair of large eyes full of sly smiles.

Little Yuekui was lying on the edge of the sofa, pinching his nose hard with her little hand, her face beaming with the joy of a successful prank.

"You lazybones! The sun's already high in the sky!" Little Moon King saw him wake up, immediately let go of his hand, and called out with a laugh.

Yang Chen sighed helplessly and sat up.

He reached out and gently pinched Xiao Yuekui's soft cheeks: "Why are you so naughty? Are you trying to wake me up?"

"No way!" Xiao Yuekui said matter-of-factly, hands on her hips. "My sister told me to come and wake you! She said if you don't get up, you won't get any breakfast!"

Xiao Yuekui pointed to the side with a self-righteous air, "My sister has been up for a long time!"

Yang Chen looked in the direction she pointed and saw Bai Yuekui standing by the window, holding a glass of water, quietly watching them make a fuss.

"Awake?" Bai Yuekui asked calmly when Yang Chen looked over.

"It got forcibly turned on." Yang Chen yawned. "It's still so comfortable in bed..."

Bai Yuekui walked to the sofa and handed Yang Chen a water glass: "Didn't you sleep well last night?"

"It's alright. I came back and saw you and Xiao Kui sleeping soundly, so I went back to the lighthouse and kept busy for a while." Yang Chen took the water glass and took a sip.

"Come and have something to eat when you wake up," Bai Yuekui said calmly. "Xiao Kui, stop making a fuss and let him wash up."

Little Yuekui said "Oh," and obediently ran to the dining table and sat down, her two little legs swinging under the chair, but her eyes were still glued to Yang Chen.

Yang Chen quickly finished washing up and sat down at the table.

Yang Chen took a bite of bread, looked at Xiao Yuekui, and laughed, "That little guy slept like a pig last night."

Little Moon Queen immediately protested, "I'm not a little pig! I sleep very well!"

Bai Yuekui's lips curled up almost imperceptibly, then he asked, "What are the plans for today?"

Yang Chen finished his breakfast in a few bites, wiped his mouth, and said, "Let's go check out the resettlement area first."

"So many people came down from the lighthouse, including quite a few elderly people and children. Many of them are probably suffering from chronic malnutrition or old injuries. I'll go and take a look, and treat those I can to avoid future troubles."

He possesses the power of the Horse Talisman, making it easy for him to cure diseases and heal injuries.

Now that we've decided to take these people in, we naturally need to help them recover their health as quickly as possible so they can better integrate into their new lives.

Bai Yuekui nodded: "Yes, it's good to get them back to normal as soon as possible. Shall I go with you?"

"No need, you can just take Xiao Kui with you." Yang Chen stood up.

"Okay," Bai Yuekui replied.

Xiao Yuekui looked up at Yang Chen: "Yang Chen, are you going to treat the newcomers? Like you treated me?"

"More or less." Yang Chen ruffled her hair.

"Oh..." Xiao Yuekui nodded, then became excited again, "Then can you turn into a little rabbit for me to see? My brother wouldn't cooperate yesterday!"

Yang Chen chuckled and flicked her forehead lightly with his finger: "Dream on, nothing will change."

Little Moon Kui pouted, "Then I'll go find Maido to play by myself later."

Upon hearing this, Bai Yuekui pondered for a moment, then looked down at Xiao Yuekui and said, "Let's not go find Maiduo today. How about I take you to see the ecological base?"

"An ecological base?" Xiao Yuekui immediately became interested upon hearing this.

The little guy immediately forgot about playing with Mai Duo and excitedly grabbed Bai Yuekui's hand.

"Really? Sister! Shall we go now?" Seeing Xiao Yuekui's excited expression, Yang Chen raised an eyebrow and looked at Bai Yuekui: "Ecological base? Taking her there... wouldn't that be too early? There are some research areas inside, which are too advanced for her age..."

Bai Yuekui met his gaze and said calmly and firmly, "No."

She paused for a moment: "I know where her tolerance and curiosity lie. It's not a bad thing for her to be exposed to some things earlier."

Looking at her resolute expression, Yang Chen swallowed back the words that were on the tip of his tongue.

That's true, after all, it was her own childhood, and as the person involved, she naturally knows her own potential and temperament best.

"Alright, it's up to you." Yang Chen smiled and stopped dwelling on the issue. "Then you guys go to the ecological base, and I'll go to the resettlement area."

"I know." Bai Yuekui took Xiao Yuekui's hand. "Let's go."

Little Yuekui happily agreed, and as Bai Yuekui pulled her outside, she didn't forget to turn back and wave her little hand at Yang Chen: "Goodbye, Yang Chen!"

Yang Chen watched the two figures, one tall and one short, disappear through the doorway, then shook his head with a wry smile. Without further delay, he tidied himself up and prepared to head to the resettlement area outside Village No. 2.

Yang Chen hadn't gone far from his house when he saw Bai Yuetian strolling leisurely down the side road with his hands in his pockets, looking like he had nothing better to do than wander around.

"Hey, Orange, you're out?" Bai Yuetian raised his chin as a greeting.

"Yeah, I'll go check out the resettlement area," Yang Chen replied, then casually asked, "What about you? Where are you planning to wander off to so early in the morning?"

Bai Yuetian pursed his lips, his gaze drifting towards the direction of Village No. 2: "Where else can we go? Didn't we say yesterday? Let's go see our adopted grandson."

Upon hearing this, Yang Chen smiled knowingly.

"We're going the same way anyway, let's go together."

After a night's rest, the order in the resettlement area has improved significantly.

Many of the people who came down from the lighthouse, especially the dusters and the elderly, clearly suffered from various acute and chronic diseases caused by the harsh environment and lack of medical care.

Yang Chen's arrival caused a small commotion.

He went directly to Nanjixing and Xia Tianlai, who were coordinating matters.

"How is the situation?" Yang Chen asked.

When Xia Tian came to see Yang Chen, he quickly reported: "Boss, most people's physical condition is relatively stable, but most are weak and malnourished. However, there are also some old injuries and chronic diseases, and a few children have fevers. They have been given medicine, but the effect seems to be a bit slow."

Yang Chen nodded: "I understand. Go and gather all those with obvious symptoms, especially those with external injuries and infections, in that open area. I will take care of them all at once."

"Alright! I'll go arrange it right away!" Nanjixing immediately agreed and turned to call for help.

Soon, dozens of people gathered on a relatively flat open space.

Some of them had obvious twists in their arms or shoulders, disabilities left over from past labor or battles, while others coughed incessantly and had flushed faces.

Everyone stared nervously at Yang Chen, who was standing in front of them.

Yang Chen didn't say anything unnecessary. His gaze swept across the crowd, and the power of the horse talisman quietly flowed within his body.

He raised his hand, and a soft, pure blue light emanated from him, gently brushing over the bodies of everyone present.

The people enveloped in the blue light instantly showed expressions of disbelief.

The old man tentatively stepped on the ground with the leg that he had previously been unable to use, and was pleasantly surprised to find that the soreness and weakness that had plagued him for many years had disappeared!

A middle-aged man with a deformed, bent arm watched as his twisted arm made a slight "click" sound in the blue light, then returned to its normal position at a speed visible to the naked eye, moving freely again.

The violent coughing stopped abruptly, the flush on the feverish child's face quickly subsided, and the body temperature returned to normal.
