The evil female in the space can heal, and five beast husbands risk their lives to protect her.

Chapter 37: Awakening Abilities Through Bondage

"This young master Yue was once a brilliant and talented man. He was originally the heir of the Duke of Dingguo, holding the Tiger Tally and military power. He was a famous and ever-victorious general. If he hadn't been seriously injured in a battle, breaking his leg and injuring that area, and then being abandoned by the Duke of Dingguo's mansion, he wouldn't have ended up in this situation."

"His leg injury was very serious. It is said that even the imperial physicians could not cure his leg. If our young master had intervened at that time, could his leg have been healed?"

“Our young master is not someone that just anyone can meet. Even we can’t see him.”

"Do you think that if the Duke of Dingguo's mansion finds out that Young Master Yue is dead, they will blame us?"

"Hmph, if anyone's to blame, it's his wife. That ugly, fat female beast is disgusting and should have died long ago. Besides, we are Medicine King Valley. Our Valley Master and Young Valley Master are so powerful, who would dare offend Medicine King Valley? And no one will know what we've done..."

Then in her dream, Qiao Suluo saw Yue Hanzheng's body being carried to the back mountain of Medicine King Valley, a place full of medicinal herbs, where they were going to bury him.

Upon seeing this scene, Qiao Suluo was jolted awake from her sleep.

Qiao Sulu was breathing heavily.

Seeing Yue Hanzheng treated that way in her dream, seeing Yue Hanzheng die, for some reason, she felt a sense of suffocation welling up inside her.

The system then noticed that something was wrong with its host. "Is the host having a nightmare?"

Qiao Suluo said in a muffled voice, "Yes, I dreamt that Yue Hanzheng died."

The system simply didn't believe it. "How could that be? Yue Hanzheng is a major villain in this world. He won't die so easily. Don't overthink it, host."

"It was just a dream."

Qiao Suluo understood that it was just a dream, but the Yue Hanzheng she saw in the dream felt so real.

Seeing how he was treated by the people of Medicine King Valley, and knowing full well that it was poison, he would still numbly drink it. Every time he drank it, his body would tremble with pain, but he endured it without making a sound.

Seeing that scene, even if it weren't for the mission, she couldn't bear it.

"It is said that he went to the battlefield to guard the border when he was ten years old, and he has many scars on his body from fighting."

"He did so much to protect his country, why did the Duke of Dingguo treat him like that? And his predecessor sold him to Medicine King Valley to be a medicine man. It was too cruel."

She grew up in a wonderful world and would never do something like what her predecessor did.

"If the host had redeemed him earlier, there wouldn't have been so many problems."

Qiao Suluo said with a focused expression, "Yes, we still need to redeem Yue Hanzheng first. How much silver did the original owner sell him for?"

"Fifty taels of silver."

Qiao Suluo's expression changed. "Fifty taels of silver?"

The thirty-odd taels of silver she had were far from enough to redeem the person.

However, she also thought of something else, "His leg is broken, can it be healed?"

"Would it be possible to cure him if the Valley Master or Young Master of Medicine King Valley were to treat him?"

She also wanted to ask the people of Medicine King Valley to help heal Que Hongjin and Bai Qianluo.

But she also knew that she was not qualified to meet the Valley Master or the Young Valley Master of Medicine King Valley; such figures were not people she could meet.

The system said, "Host, I just investigated and discovered something. Your soul seems to have some peculiar aspects. If you form a contract with your beast husband and establish a real relationship, you can obtain the inheritance of a divine healer."

Qiao Suluo exclaimed in surprise, "What?"

"You actually made me do this kind of thing? If Que Hongjin and the others find out, they will definitely try to kill me."

As she spoke, Qiao Suluo touched her neck, still remembering the feeling of being choked by Tu Shan Feishang. The system knew that its host was emotionally obtuse and naive, and explained, "Although the host's beast husbands are all crippled now, they have strong bloodlines. When they form a bond, they can stimulate some latent abilities, allowing the host to awaken some of their own abilities."

"The host will receive corresponding rewards for forming a contract with each beastman."

Even if there were rewards, Qiao Suluo didn't think about them. She just pondered and said, "I still need to find a way to ask the Valley Master or Young Valley Master of Medicine King Valley to help save people."

Based on her predecessor's memories, she also knew that the threshold for Medicine King Valley was very high, and that Medicine King Valley was divided into inner valley and outer valley.

The inner valley is the core area of ​​Medicine King Valley.

All physicians in the outer valley must pass the inner valley examination every year in order to enter the inner valley.

The original story involves selling Yue Hanzheng to a steward physician in the outer valley. They valued Yue Hanzheng's physique and endurance, hoping to turn him into a medicine man and improve his medical skills so that he might be taken into the inner valley.

As Qiao Sulu pondered these matters, dawn gradually broke.

……

After breakfast, Qiao Suluo, Que Hongjin, and Bai Qianluo went to the county.

It had been raining for three days, and the ground was still wet when they arrived.

They first went to the Brocade Cloth Shop and delivered the doll there.

After delivering the doll, Qiao Suluo took the 800 coins she received as payment and went with Que Hongjin and Bai Qianluo back to the place where they had previously set up their stall.

When they arrived at their stall, there weren't many people at first. However, because it was located on the main street with a lot of people coming and going, soon people started coming over to look at their stall's goods.

Soon after, some regular customers came in.

"It rained for the first three days, and I braved the rain to come and buy konjac snacks, but I didn't see you. Today the rain stopped, and you finally came out to set up your stall."

"By the way, is there no tofu today? Tofu tastes really good."

Qiao Suluo explained with a smile, "We didn't make tofu today, but we will make it tomorrow. However, we have maltose and peach blossom wine today, so Auntie can buy some maltose and peach blossom wine."

She didn't know if it would rain today, so she didn't soak the soybeans yesterday.

If the tofu wasn't sold on the same day it was made, it would spoil, so we didn't make any.

Another regular customer asked curiously, "What is peach blossom wine?"

They had never heard of peach blossom wine before.

Just as Qiao Suluo was about to explain something, she heard a sneer.

Qiao Suluo looked in the direction of the sound and saw a woman in an orange dress standing not far away, looking at her with disdain and disgust.

Qiao Suluo didn't know her at all.

The man next to her, dressed in a scholar's robe, asked, "Qiu Mei, what's wrong?"

Lu Qiumei deliberately spoke loudly: "You know that Qiao Erlin from the Qiao family insisted on marrying me, and the annulment of the engagement was delayed for a long time. She is Qiao Erlin's sister, a fake heiress who was sent back from the capital."

"I heard that Qiao Feishuang deliberately switched her daughters back then, letting a fake country girl grow up in a noble family. This family is not a good family. Who knows if the things they sell are mixed with something bad."

The man dressed in the academy's uniform said with an arrogant and disdainful look, "How can someone like this have the nerve to sell things?"

"I advise everyone not to buy things casually. If something goes wrong, the Qiao family won't take responsibility; they'll just run away even faster."
