After seeing Wang Jian enter the treatment room, Cai Qiang followed Cai Zhi out of the consultation room.
Some of the onlookers at the door had already left; the weather was simply too hot for them to wait around. When Cai Qiang and Cai Zhi came out, they attracted the attention of a group of people, but the pair ignored everyone, walking through the crowd toward the village outskirts.
"He's just a village doctor..." Cai Zhi grumbled as they left the clinic. Once they reached the edge of the village, he squatted down on the curb with Cai Qiang. Pulling a tin box of cigarettes from his pocket, he said, "Here, bro, have a cigarette! This is from a medicinal herb merchant. A foreign brand, good stuff. Try one."
Cai Qiang frowned, glanced at the cigarette box, and then looked back toward the village entrance. Seeing no one following, he took a cigarette and stuck it in his mouth. "We haven't gone far. Watch what you say."
