Dan Guan felt increasingly disheartened as he listened. "Is that so?"
Seeing that his hands and feet were stiff, Jian Mo softened her tone and comforted him, "Wait for me a moment, I'll grab my tools and examine it carefully again."
When Jian Mo returned to his temporary residence, Bei Ya was waiting for him on the road.
Looking up at Dan Guan, Bei Ya asked, "Can I come over and take a look together?"
Dan Guan was initially reluctant to let anyone see his bald patches, but upon seeing Bei Ya's messy face, and considering that he was a sub-beastman, Dan Guan immediately became less bothered. "I have no objection."
Jian Mo also felt safer with another person around, nodded to Jian Mo Bei Ya, and said, "Let's go."
Jian Mo returned to her temporary lodgings and took out her first-aid kit.
He put on gloves and a mask, then found and put on a metal stethoscope, instantly making him look very professional.
Dan Guan didn't recognize the tools he was carrying, but seeing his serious attire, she felt a greater sense of trust in him.
After a thorough examination, Jian Mo found absolutely nothing wrong with Dan Guan's body.
According to the results of the physical examination, Dan Guan is very healthy, even robust.
Jian Mo asked, "Did anything unusual happen during the time you started shedding?"
Dan Guan shook his head. "No, everything was normal, it just suddenly fell off."
Jian Mo: "Never moved? Never been in a relationship? Never tried new foods or suddenly stopped eating certain foods? Has the water you drink changed? Or have you taken a bath in a new place?"
Every time Jian Mo asked a question, Dan Guan shook his head, his head practically bobbing up like a rattle drum.
After Jian Mo his last question and began to ponder, Dan Guan asked with some despair, "Can't you find the cause of the illness?"
Jian Mo: "Neither of your fathers sheds body hair, so it's probably not a genetic issue, but rather a mutation. There's really nothing I can do about this kind of mutation right now."
Dan Guan: "How about you prescribe some medicine for me? The kind of medicine that bald little beastmen take?"
Jian Mo said helplessly, "I didn't actually prescribe much medicine for him. I just took care of him for a few days, making sure he ate and slept well. Why don't you take good care of yourself for a few days too, making sure you eat and sleep well?"
Dan Guan: "I've always eaten well, and my sleep quality has been good too."
Jian Mo was at her wit's end.
Seeing Dan Guan's mournful face, which was quite pitiful, Jian Mo suggested, "How about you make a wig? I have some glue here that works really well. You can use some real hair to make a wig, and when you wear it, no one should be able to tell."
Dan Guan thought for a moment, then felt even more desperate. "What about when I'm in beast form? Beast form is bald too."
Jian Mo had no other choice but to say, "Your sudden hair loss could also happen suddenly and start growing back one day. Why don't you go back and take good care of yourself?"
Dan Guan: "What if life isn't long?"
Jian Mo heard that there was no genetic predisposition to hair loss in his family, so she guessed that environmental factors were the main cause. She said, "Why don't you change your environment? If you do, your diet might change and it might help."
Dan Guan looked at Jian Mo expectantly. "I shed fur, no sub-beastman likes me, and no other tribe can accept me."
Jian Mo: "Are both your fathers from the Mountain Bright Tribe? Can their tribes let you stay temporarily?"
Dan Guan shook his head. "They are all from the Mountain Bright Tribe."
Dan Guan paced back and forth for a while, then suddenly darted forward and approached Jian Mo: "Doctor Jian Mo, you said that little beastman only recovered after arriving at the Riverside Tribe. Can I move to your Riverside Tribe?"
Jian Mo: "Huh?"
Bei Ya also looked up at Jian Mo.
Dan Guan looked at Jian Mo expectantly. "My beast form is also feline, which should meet the standards of the Riverside Tribe. Besides, I'm a young beastman with decent combat skills; I can help you hunt and gather—"
Before he could finish speaking, Jian Mo quickly waved his hand to interrupt him, "You'll have to ask Wu Jiong and the others about that."
Dan Guan: "Then will you put in a good word for me?"
Jian Mo had a feeling that Wu Jiong and the others wouldn't agree, so she said, "You don't necessarily have to go to the Riverside Tribe; you just need a change of scenery."
Dan Guan was very frustrated.
Seeing his expression, Jian Mo had no choice but to say, "Ask Wu Jiong."
Seeing that Jiujiu was nearby, Jian Mo called out, "Jiujiu, go and bring Wu Jiong over."
Jiujiu merrily: "Chirp--"
It turned and flew away.
After waiting for a while, Wu Jiong came over after hearing the news.
The moment Dan Guan saw the people, he rushed up to them and asked if he could stay temporarily in the Riverside Tribe.
As expected, Wu Jiong Jian Mo.
Wu Jiong said, "It's not very convenient for our tribe, but you can ask the Mengshui Tribe; they often accept orcs and sub-orcs from other tribes."
Dan Guan: "Is it really not possible?"
Wu Jiong: "No."
Dan Guan paused for a moment, then said, "Alright, I'll go ask."
Jian Mo comforted Dan Guan, "Maybe you'll get better after staying with the Mengshui Tribe for a while. If you don't get better, we can still think of something else."
Dan Guan sighed, "Thank you, Doctor Jian Mo."
Jian Mo: "You're welcome."
Dan Guan Jian Mo, he thought about giving him money for medical expenses.
Jian Mo felt she hadn't been of much help and refused to accept the money.
Dan Guan handed over some of the supplies he had brought to the Snow Foot Tribe, intending to stay there for two days until Jian Mo recovered, and then they would go after the caravan and inquire with the Mengshui Tribe.
Jian Mo and the others had no objections; having another strong orc in the team was actually a good thing for them.
That night, Jian Mo lay down next to Wu Jiong and said, "I feel like there will be more and more orcs and sub-orcs coming to our tribe for exchanges in the future. Why don't we make a plan when we get back and divide up the living area, working area, and so on? That way we won't have to worry about people from other tribes coming over."
Wu Jiong: "That's what I think too. I'll discuss it with Qing Kuo and the others when we get back."
Jian Mo added, "Didn't we repair the sand road last time? If it's convenient, we can pave it with stones; they're better than sand. If we don't have enough manpower, we can also borrow some resources from other tribes to help us."
