Chapter 366 (2/2)
Wood nodded carelessly. He certainly didn’t expect that there wouldn’t be a scar.
A scar was nothing. Before this trip, he had received the spells that had tidied up his appearance. Otherwise, the scars on his body would scare these two to death!
Ivy saw that he was careless, so she smiled. She helped him change his medicine and then re-wrapped the wound.
Her actions of bandaging were really quick but unusually soft. Naturally, he felt a little pain in the process, but it wasn’t worth mentioning compared to the pain in Wood’s psychological estimation.
A short time later, the wound was re-wrapped. Nothing else but just the final shape showed that her skill was much better than that of the priests of the temple.
The white bandage was so smooth that not a single wrinkle could be found. It was wrapped around the wound neither tightly or loosely. Wood tried to move a little bit and found that it didn’t affect his actions at all.
It was just bandaging, but she was able to do it so perfectly. This could be called a miracle!
“Thank you very much!” He sincerely expressed his appreciation. “I had some doubts about your ability just now. I know little, so please don’t mind me.”
Ivy smiled again. “You know a lot. I was indeed a butcher,” she said indifferently.
Looking at Wood’s stunned expression, she said with some pride, “I was one of the best butchers in Dragon-Roar Town. My specialty was dismembering the bodies of demon monsters. Later, His Majesty, the Void Mask passed by Dragon-Roar Town and found that my way of cutting was very good. He said a few words such as ‘skilled butchers could dismember an ox smoothly and perfectly because they have mastered the structure through countless practice.’ Then he asked me if I would like to change my job. Of course, I wanted like to, so I became a medical worker.”
Wood already had nothing to say. He could only sigh with surprise that His Majesty, the Void Mask was really indeed the most outstanding god of the new generation. He really had great foresight.
After that, Ivy left with Grandma Stinna. When they left, they both advised him that he shouldn’t exercise in the next few days and that he should stay in bed.
Wood accepted their good advice. He immediately laid down obediently. Then he began to silently recite some material again to kill time.
Ivy’s estimations were really accurate. When re-bandaging three days later, Wood clearly saw that the inside of the wound started to recover. When it was bandaged again five days later, the wound recovered pretty well. Finally, on the tenth day, the wound totally healed into a scar.
He planned to go back to work at this time, but he was stopped by Grandma Stinna strictly.
“Such a wound is actually very fragile!” the old grandmother said seriously. “Sweat, dust, wood chips… They can all possibly pollute it and make it fester. For trauma, the festering of a wound is the most terrible thing. Even if it is only a little skin trauma, once it festers, it may kill a strong man!”
Wood had no choice but to lie down for three more days. Finally, he received Grandma Stinna’s nod, so he left home in a rush to the construction site.
Staying at home was too uncomfortable; it was just like staying in jail!
Wood’s co-workers expressed a warm welcome to his return. Wood not only had a handsome appearance, but he was also “handsome” in craftsmanship. He was able to chip a piece of completely flat wood board with only one-third of the time that others would use. They couldn’t find a splinter on it as if it had been polished. He could also carve wood into various shapes with a small knife and complete any complex wooden structures easily.
The old foreman had patted his own chest and said that as long as Wood could continue to hone his skills, he would surely become the best carpenter in the whole Pyroxene Town, in the entire Four Towns in the Northwest, and even in the whole world!
Wood smiled, but he was actually sighing in his heart.
If he could, he wanted to be a world-famous great mage. The second attractive aim was to be a world-famous ranger. And the third attractive aim was to be a famous spy. But the best carpenter in the world?! What the hell!
After that joke, naturally, they started their intensive work. What they needed to do this time was to cooperate with the stonemasons and lay sewers for each household in the town. The sewers were used for the treatment of domestic sewage and manure.
Is that necessary? Wood wondered after hearing the work.
In his opinion, this was completely unnecessary. There were workers in the town who were responsible for the disposal of garbage and manure. In this case, why did they need to lay sewers?
“The mayor said that it was a proposal of His Majesty, the Void Mask. This can help reduce the possibility of spreading diseases greatly and improve people’s living standards,” the old foreman said, smiling. “Although I think our current living standard… is already high enough.”
Everyone laughed. As the old foreman had said, everyone was very satisfied with the present life.
However, if they could live better, who would not be willing to?
As a result, the work started intensively.
