As soon as Widow Xie, her daughter, and the Zhao family stopped, many people looked over. Now people were panicking. If Sister Xiang's son doesn't get better, there is no chance that people will really suspect that he has been infected with the epidemic.
Zhao Luoyang asked Widow Xie: "Did Sister Xiang say that she felt uncomfortable?"
Widow Xie said: "Yesterday, she followed me to pick wild vegetables. She probably sweated a lot because they were exposed to the sun. When I came back, I cooked the wild vegetables, but she refused to eat them. She just asked for water. After drinking a lot of water, she was still yelling.
When I feel thirsty, I point to my head later and say it hurts.
I kept trying to feed her some food today, but she wouldn't open her mouth and kept saying she wanted to vomit."
Zhao Luoyang read the book given to her by the system and found out that the problems most likely to occur when walking outside in such weather are dehydration, heatstroke, and hyponatremia.
Dehydration is easy to understand. Heatstroke is what they call the evil of heat. Hyponatremia is caused by not eating enough salt. Zhao Luoyang doesn’t understand why you can get sick even if you don’t eat salt. But Sister Xiang’s situation is like the following.
.
Zhao Luoyang called Sister Xiang. After a long while, Sister Xiang finally frowned and started to cry.
Zhao Luoyang breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this. Sister Xiang could still be woken up, which was a good thing.
"Sister Xiang, have you eaten salty food recently?" Zhao Luoyang looked at Widow Xie.
Widow Xie didn't know why Zhao Luoyang asked this, but she still said: "I put some salt in the pancakes I made, but she ate very little every time."
Now it seems that there are many possibilities for Sister Xiang. The best one is hyponatremia as written in the book. She doesn't eat much salt on weekdays, but after sweating a lot, she develops symptoms of headache, nausea, and lethargy.
.
Hyponatremia is easy to treat as long as it does not become severe. It will get better as long as you eat salt. Of course, it is best to take physiological saline, which will take effect faster.
The system can exchange for physiological saline.
Zhao Luoyang made a decisive decision to give Sister Xiang some salt water. If the condition did not improve, he would think of other ways.
"Milk," Zhao Luoyang looked at Mrs. Yang, "we still have a small piece of candy. Sister Xiang can't eat, why don't you try some candy?"
People may not believe that drinking salt water can be helpful. It is better to say that eating sugar can help. Sister Xiang also needs sugar now.
The granddaughter has not been able to speak for many years. They have a way of communicating that is incomprehensible to outsiders. Mrs. Yang knows what her granddaughter means without even winking.
The little granddaughter reminded her that Mr. Song gave her a lot of candy.
Mrs. Yang couldn't say whether eating caramel would work, but there was no other way at the moment.
Sugar is a good thing.
Mrs. Yang said: "Then give it a try!"
Widow Xie didn't have this kind of food. The mother and daughter received subsidies from Sichuan to scrape together enough for the trip. However, they bought a few pieces of candy and fed them to Sister Xiang and her son. There was nothing left.
"This..." Widow Xie was grateful, but felt sorry for the Zhao family. She was taken care of by the Zhao family on weekdays, why would she take other people's things now?
"Don't tell me that," Old Mrs. Yang said, "If the family has talent, it will be given to you. If we don't have enough, we won't use it."
When Mrs. Yang said this, she looked at Zhao Luoyang: "I didn't buy the candy, my little granddaughter brought it herself. If she wants to give it to Sister Xiang, I can't decide."
Zhao Luoyang felt that Grandma understood her. In this case, wouldn’t Aunt Xie have to thank her? Then wouldn’t she have charm value?
No matter where she goes in the future, she will have to take Grandma with her, so that she can help her without her reminding her.
"I'm going to get the water and turn it into sugar," Zhao Luoyang said, "to make it into sugar water that will taste better."
Zhao Luoyang ran to get the water bag, but he actually had to carry someone on his back to exchange for saline. Zhao Luoyang called Shi Jiu as he walked.
After Shi Jiu appeared, he did not immediately tell her about the exchange. Instead, he said in a calm voice: "Stop for a moment and take a look to the southwest."
Zhao Luoyang looked around subconsciously.
"Yes, that's right there."
Shi Jiu spoke again. She fixed her gaze on the mountain col not far away. There was a small forest there. Zhao Luoyang didn't see anything strange.
Shi Jiu's voice was low: "There might have been someone hiding there just now."
The small forest was facing the place where Widow Xie and the others stayed.
Zhao Luoyang looked away without leaving any trace, talking to Shi Jiu in his mind: "Did you...see it?"
"The moment you called me, I glanced over there," Shi Jiu said, "I happened to see the tree crown shaking. The force was not a bird, but a human or a slightly larger beast. You need to be more careful.
careful."
Shi Jiu could tell this from the swaying tree crowns?
Zhao Luoyang looked at his father. The figures of his third uncle and the others were heading towards Widow Xie and Grandma. If there was anyone hiding there, it would have been their father who had alerted them.
Zhao Luoyang was a little nervous: "If it's a human, is it a bandit?"
Shi Jiu said: "I don't know."
That's all he could see at the moment. Of course, if he wasn't trapped here, he could still catch up and confirm his guess while others weren't paying attention.
Zhao Luoyang found that Shi Jiu was more perceptive than she thought. She wondered whether the system was like this or just Shi Jiu.
Zhao Luoyang realized a question: "Can you see the situation around you at any time?"
"No," Shi Jiu said, "Only if you call me."
Zhao Luoyang breathed a sigh of relief. No one wanted his every move to be watched, even if it was "not a human being".
"Shi Jiu, you are very powerful." Zhao Luoyang praised him sincerely.
[Praised by the host, health value 5]
Shi Jiu watched a line of words flash past him, and his health points increased like this for the first time.
One word of praise actually increased the price by 5 points.
The source of this health value is really explained clearly. If the health value increases like this, he will not be disgusted.
"Shi Jiu," Zhao Luoyang said, "help me exchange for saline."
Normally she cares about the value of wealth, and would have to think about exchanging a piece of compressed biscuit for a long time, but now she is happy to save people.
Shi Jiu said: "You'd better find something that can open the bottle of physiological saline, and you need to find a place without people. This is different from an egg. It doesn't belong here and can't be discovered. You can get it
It takes a lot of effort to get in front of people.”
Zhao Luoyang felt that Shi Jiu was in a good mood, so his explanation was particularly detailed this time.
After a while, Zhao Luoyang held a bag of physiological saline. The bag filled with saline looked a bit like a water bag, but it was very different from their water bags. It was as if the bag did not exist, and the contents could be clearly seen.
, she was a little reluctant to cut open the bag.
"Sister, are you ready?"
Zhao Yuanrang, who was on the lookout, reminded in a low voice.
"Almost." Zhao Luoyang said.
After a while, Zhao Luoyang put the salt water into the water bag, carefully folded the bag that originally contained the salt water and stuffed it into the cloth bag on his waist, then arranged his clothes and walked out.
Zhao Yuanrang whispered: "Have you got the candy?"
Zhao Luoyang nodded and told her brother that the candy was hidden close to her body and she had to untie her clothes to take it out. Moreover, she also had a money bag tied around her waist, so she couldn't be discovered, so she asked Yuan Rang and Yuan Ji to help
She looked into the wind.
Zhao Yuanji said: "Sister, you must put things away." Thinking about the cakes in her hands, Zhao Yuanji couldn't help but swallow. Such good things must be hidden properly.
It took some effort to go back and forth, but fortunately when Zhao Luoyang came back, Sister Xiang was more awake than before.
Mrs. Yang and Widow Xie fanned her again and wiped Sister Xiang with water, so that Sister Xiang could at least drink the sugar water.
Zhao Luoyang first handed the water bag with caramel to Sister Xiang's mouth.
Don't worry about adults, there is no child who doesn't like caramel. After two mouthfuls of sugar water, Sister Xiang became more enthusiastic about drinking water. Zhao Luoyang took the opportunity to take away the water bag and handed another one over.
This time it's salt water.
Sister Xiang swallowed two mouthfuls without paying attention. It was salty and bitter, and she almost spit it out. Zhao Luoyang was already prepared and reached out to hold Sister Xiang's chin: "Drink quickly, you will feel better after drinking."
Widow Xie didn't know what was going on, so she couldn't help but look at Zhao Luoyang.
Zhao Luoyang said: "This is water soaked in kudzu root."
Widow Xie was surprised. She didn’t expect that the Zhao family had given all the medicinal materials to Sister Xiang. She knew how rare the medicinal materials were now. When she left this time, there were people in the village buying medicinal materials and preparing them. She heard that some people were buying them.
Pueraria lobata, it is said that this medicine can remove fever and prevent wind and cold.
But how expensive is this medicine?
Widow Xie's nose became sore when she thought about it, and tears started to flow down her face.
She didn't care about anything else, and stretched out her hand to hold Old Mrs. Yang, and said with a sigh: "Auntie, your family is a good person, please leave us alone... Let's go quickly... The faster we go, the better."
Widow Xie held Old Mrs. Yang's hand, contracted her fingers, and used extraordinary strength: "Believe me, something is going to happen here. Don't pay any attention to anything. Just keep driving so that you can leave."
When Widow Xie was speaking, a series of sounds of [ding] [ding] [ding] suddenly came from Zhao Luoyang's mind.
