Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The fierce tiger roar shocked the birds.
Lin Suisui was also shocked. She subconsciously closed her eyes and waited for death to come. However, she didn’t feel anything even ominous after waiting for a long time.
Stunned, she opened her eyes tentatively and saw the tiger opening its mouth at her. However, it didn’t make another move. With Lin Suisui’s delay, the tiger seemed to be getting impatient.
Lin Suisui didn’t dare to be negligent. This tiger wouldn’t open its mouth and rush at her for no reason, so there must be a reason. She took a hesitant step forward and was relieved when the tiger didn’t move. She boldly took two more steps forward until she was close to the tiger’s big head and looked into its mouth.
Without much effort, she saw a broken bone spike stuck in the tiger’s molar. It was probably because it had been stuck in for too long that the wound was already a little festering.
This wound was neither big nor small, but it was really not an easy thing for this tiger to remove! Not only did it affect its eating, but if it continued to worsen, it might even affect its hunting.
If she were to treat this wound, it wouldn’t take much effort. However, the patient in front of her wasn’t a human she could communicate with, but a tiger that could eat her at any time!
If she wanted to treat the wound, she had to reach into the tiger’s mouth. Moreover, pulling out the bone spike and cleaning the wound might bring intense pain and stimulation. If she was careless, her hand would be crippled on the spot!
However, if she didn’t help it…
It seemed that the outcome wasn’t any better. This tiger would definitely not let her off easily.
Lin Suisui only considered it for a moment before making a decision. She looked up at the tiger and whispered to it, “I can help you treat your injuries, but it will hurt a little. Can you bear it?
If possible, nod your head!”
When she said this, even she herself felt that she was crazy!
She was actually chatting with a tiger here.
However, what surprised Lin Suisui even more was that the tiger actually nodded at her. Then, it looked very obedient and opened its mouth again. It even leaned towards Lin Suisui with a fawning expression, looking like it couldn’t wait.
Lin Suisui took a deep breath. Seeing that the patient was so cooperative, she decided to take the risk!
She wasn’t in a hurry to pull out the bone spike for the tiger. Instead, she explained in a low voice, “Don’t be anxious. We have to find some herbs to treat your injuries first.”
I can also help you recognize a herb. This way, after I treat you this time, you have to find that herb and chew it every day for the next period of time. It can help you recover faster.”
The tiger was very understanding. When it heard Lin Suisui’s words, it was very cooperative and followed behind her. It actually really watched her dig out the herb that stopped bleeding and anti-inflammatory in the grass. In the end, it even cleverly found one for Lin Suisui to see and passed the test.
Lin Suisui brought the tiger back to the riverbank. She first washed away the herbs she had found, then found a stone to crush. Then, she turned around and whispered to the tiger, “I’m going to start pulling out that bone spike for you now. Also, that bone spike has been in your mouth for too long and has festered. Therefore, not only am I going to help you pull out that spike, but I’m also going to clean up the surrounding pus, blood, and rotten flesh and apply herbs.
This process will be a little uncomfortable. You have to endure it!”
The tiger squatted in front of Lin Suisui and nodded obediently. Then it opened its mouth at her again.
Lin Suisui calmed herself and reached into the tiger’s mouth. She was steady and fast during the pulling of the bone spike. It didn’t cause much discomfort to the tiger. The greater challenge was actually the subsequent debridement and removal of the pus.
Fortunately, the tiger kept its promise and didn’t attack at all from the beginning to the end. It wasn’t until Lin Suisui carefully smeared the green herbs on the tiger’s wound that it heaved a sigh of relief.
The mountain breeze blew and she felt a chill run down her back. Only then did she realize that her back had been drenched in sweat for a while.
“Alright.” Lin Suisui looked at the tiger and instructed it as if it was a patient she had treated before, “Remember, if you can, it’s best to chew more of the herbs I found for you! Don’t forget to chew more after you eat.
Even if your injuries recover in the future, you can continue to maintain this habit. Anyway, it won’t do you any harm.”
As she spoke, Lin Suisui couldn’t help but reach out and touch the top of the tiger’s head. The feeling of touching it was like touching a big cat, making her suddenly feel a sense of accomplishment.
Which doctor could treat tigers in the forest like her?!
The tiger seemed to be in a good mood. It purred at Lin Suisui before turning around and disappearing into the forest.
Seeing that the tiger had really left, Lin Suisui finally relaxed. After heaving a long sigh of relief, she felt tired and hungry.
The bonfire she had built earlier had long been extinguished, but she couldn’t care less now. She took out the half piece of rabbit jerky from the basket and wolfed it down a few times to ease the discomfort of her hunger.
However, Lin Suisui didn’t rest for long when she was shocked to see that the tiger that had hidden itself in the forest had returned again. Moreover, it seemed to be holding something in its mouth.
Lin Suisui blinked. Could it be that this tiger also knew that a patient had to pay the doctor a fee?!
Only when the tiger approached did Lin Suisui see with a dumbfounded expression that the thing dangling in the tiger’s mouth was actually a little white tiger!
The tiger came over with the thin little white tiger. Without any hesitation, it placed the cub in front of Lin Suisui. Then, it lowered its head and licked the tiger cub’s head. It raised its head and growled at Lin Suisui before turning around and leaving!
“…”
Lin Suisui looked at the pitiful tiger cub on the ground and then at the tiger that walked away without looking back. She immediately felt helpless.
It seemed that this tiger cub was the child of that ferocious tiger!
Then could it be that it wanted to use this cub as a consultation fee?!
Did she look like a sucker?!
