Shi Wen asked a few questions, Mole volunteered to help call for help, Shi Wen's questions.

Shi Wen could only say, "Then wait for me a moment, I'll go take a look."

Shi Wen brought his own all-purpose honey and then followed Mole on his motorcycle.

Actually, taking a shortcut to Mole's village would be easier by horseback. Shi Wen was worried that Mole's neighbor's sick horse might have an infectious disease that could spread to Shi Suo and the others, so riding a motorcycle was better.

The two arrived at Mole's neighbor's house one after the other.

When they arrived, a large crowd had already gathered around. No one knew what the horse's problem was, and they were all offering their suggestions.

Shi Wen could already understand some of their minority language. Listening to their various unreliable suggestions, he hurried forward, trying to squeeze into the crowd.

The crowd, who had been enjoying the spectacle, turned to look when they heard someone say to make way. Seeing it was Shi Wen, they immediately parted to make way for him without being urged, greeting him warmly.

"Young Brother Shi is here?"

"Yalikun, they're here! Come out and see for yourself!"

"The horse is saved!!!"

Shi Wen had no idea what the problem was, so naturally he had no confidence in saving the horse.

Hearing everyone chattering amongst themselves, he quickly reached out and pressed his hand down, saying, "I need to go and see for myself to know what's going on."

Everyone took it as mere modesty and happily surrounded him as he moved forward.

The male head of the household Yalikun, also heard the commotion and rushed out, immediately addressing himself with a slight reduction in seniority. "Brother Shi, thank you for your trouble."

Shi Wen looked at the burly, dark-skinned middle-aged man and said, "Just call me Shi Wen. What's wrong with your horse?"

Yalikun: "I don't know. They were fine when I let them out this morning. Not long after, someone came to tell me that the horses didn't seem right, like they were sick. When I went to bring them back, they couldn't even stand up."

As they were talking, they ran to the stables Shi Wen saw two horses that had been injured.

Both horses are local Ili horses, and they look quite tall and strong. Their satin-like coats show the care their owner has taken in raising them.

Shi Wen glanced at Yalikun. Something had happened to Emma; no wonder he was so worried.

Shi Wen quickly turned his attention to the horse.

Neither of the two horses could stand up; they lay on the ground, their heads bobbing up and down, their eyes clearly showing something was wrong.

Shi Wen over and touched their bodies to check their temperature, then placed his hand on their chests to feel their heartbeats.

As an Abilities with Qilin Bloodline, Shi Wen roughly sense the condition inside a horse with his bare hands.

Both horses had slow heartbeats and seemed disoriented, somewhat like they had been poisoned.

"They might have eaten something strange," Shi Wen concluded, then turned and asked, "Did you induce vomiting in them?"

Yalikun opened his mouth. "Horses can induce vomiting?"

"Any living thing can induce vomiting," Shi Wen said. "Do you have any milk at home? Cow's milk, goat's milk, any kind of milk will do."

Yalikun: "Yes, I'll bring it over now."

Shi Wen, "Okay. I'll give them some milk later. Milk contains a lot of protein, and after it's down, it might combine with what they ate and alleviate the damage from the poison. Also, drinking plenty of liquid first will make it easier for them to vomit later."

At this point, Yalikun didn't dare to raise any objections and rushed home, quickly bringing back the milk.

Shi Wen seeing the milk, Shi Wen didn't waste any words and immediately poured it down the throats of the two horses.

The horse, which usually drinks milk, was already in a bad mood and was being forced to drink it, so it was very uncooperative.

In other words, the Shi Wen to have Qilin Bloodline gave it a very strong sense of pressure, and with many people around to help, they were able to successfully force the milk down its throat.

After feeding them milk, Shi Wen would induce vomiting.

Shi Wen put his arm into their mouths, and before anyone could see what he was doing, the horses started vomiting.

The milk I just drank turned into a greenish paste when I vomited it up.

Shi Wen poked at them with a stick, but couldn't tell what the two horses had eaten; it was all hay.

Because the hay had already fermented in the horse's stomach, his powerful sense of smell was rendered useless.

After vomiting, the horse seemed a little better.

A glimmer of hope appeared in Yalikun's eyes. "Is it all right now?"

Shi Wen held a reserved opinion. "The forage has already been digested to this extent, so it must have been ingested a long time ago. Most of the forage should have been pushed into the small intestine, so it's uncertain whether they'll recover."

Yalikun: "Huh?"

Shi Wen explained to him, "Horses are monogastric animals with very small stomachs, so food quickly moves from the stomach to the intestines. Cattle and sheep, on the other hand, are polygastric animals, so feed is stored in their stomachs for a longer period."

Yalikun: "So what do we do now?"

Shi Wen, "I've already fed them milk. I'm planning to give them some honey too. Shall I?"

Shi Wen charges for honey, so he usually consults with the farmers before feeding it to them.

Yalikun answered without hesitation, "Yes."

Upon Shi Wen him say that, Shi went and made some honey water to feed the two horses.

The two horses knew that honey water was a good thing, so they struggled and drank it on their own without being forced to.

After drinking the honey water, they became more energetic.

Shi Wen my hand against their skin to feel their heartbeats and blood flow, and I could basically tell that they were out of danger, so I breathed a sigh of relief.

The two horses were rescued, and Yalikun breathed a sigh of relief, "That scared me to death!"

Shi Wen, "We still need to go check where they're grazing to see if we can get rid of what they've eaten incorrectly. Otherwise, I'm afraid they'll eat the wrong thing again next time we let them graze."
