If you were a modern person, you would naturally understand that Xia Shang's actions were just to give Min Xiner artificial respiration.
But in the eyes of a few ancients, such a move was undoubtedly unbelievable.
Needless to say, there were misunderstandings during this period. Naturally, no one could understand what "artificial respiration" was.
Min Xiner's artificial respiration did not go smoothly, but fortunately she was saved.
"Cough...cough cough cough..."
Min Xiner suddenly coughed and spat out water frantically.
When everyone saw it, they were shocked.
"It's amazing! Can this really bring the dead back to life?"
“Dr.
Xia Shang didn't have time to listen to these people's discussions, so he quickly ran to the tent with Min Xiner in his arms and asked Xian'er to close the curtain.
Min Xiner was still coughing, cold and shivering.
"Bring me some clean clothes."
Xia Shang's expression was very serious, because Min Xiner's illness has not been cured yet, and now she is cold in the water. Failure to protect her will lead to Min Xiner's illness.
While Xian'er was looking for clothes, Xia Shang didn't care much and used a piece of dry cloth to wipe Min Xiner's body. In order to make it easier for her to change clothes, he also took off her clothes.
Xian'er found some clothes and was really shocked when she saw the scene in front of her, but looking at the young master's focused and serious eyes, she immediately put aside other distracting thoughts.
At some point, Min Xiner stopped coughing and her eyes stayed on Xia Shang's face. She seemed to have noticed Xia Shang's eyes and everything about herself.
Xia Shang was very focused and suddenly noticed Min Xiner's eyes. Without any embarrassment, he said calmly: "Put on your clothes first."
With that said, Xia Shang was ready to take the clothes from Xian'er's hand and dress Min Xiner, but at the same time he realized that his behavior at this moment was inappropriate.
"Xian'er, it's you who do it."
Xian'er nodded and began to dress Min Xiner.
Xia Shang turned his back.
Behind him, Xian'er asked: "Sister Xin'er, what's wrong with you? If I hadn't found you in time, you would have died."
Xia Shang said: "Don't ask these questions. Warm up your body first. It is very dangerous to fall into the river and soak for who knows how long if you have such a disease."
After listening to the young master's words, Xian'er suppressed all her questions.
There was silence in the tent.
It wasn't until half an hour later that Min Xiner's complexion improved and her whole body stabilized.
Xia Shang finally asked: "Min Xiner, is it time to explain your behavior now?"
Min Xiner was silent, lowering her head and saying nothing.
Xian'er was very anxious: "Sister Xin'er, tell me what's going on."
Xia Shang looked at Min Xiner: "Since you didn't tell me, I'll make a bold guess. You committed suicide by drowning in the river, right?"
Min Xiner raised her head and looked at Xia Shang, but still said nothing.
Xian'er didn't believe it when she heard it: "Drown yourself into the river? This is impossible. Why would the good sister Xin'er drown herself in the river?"
"I would rather die than be a helpless commoner." Min Xiner lowered her head and said dullly.
Xia Shangyi frowned: "It seems you can't cheer up."
Min Xiner raised her head: "You two are Xin'er's benefactors. Xin'er knows that doing this will disappoint them, but if Xin'er wants to live a life of inaction, it will really be worse than death. Maybe Xin'er used to
After standing in a high position for too long, I can no longer adapt to such an ordinary life. In short, if Xin'er is a useless person who doesn't know martial arts all her life, it's really better to die."
"Is martial arts really that important to you?"
"Xin'er has been practicing martial arts since she was born. Xin'er knows nothing but martial arts. Now that all the meridians in my body have been destroyed, I am already a disabled person and will never be able to practice martial arts. What's the point of living like this?"
"Who said you can't practice martial arts if your meridians are destroyed?"
"Huh?" Min Xiner was surprised at first, and then smiled bitterly, "Brother-in-law, please stop comforting me. The martial arts of all the world's warriors are driven by meridians. Without meridians, there will be no true energy, and there will be no way.
Practice martial arts.”
"But there are always exceptions in this world. We are both women, and our meridians are all destroyed. Why can Fairy Shuiyue stand up from behind?"
"Fairy Shuiyue? My brother-in-law also knows about Fairy Shuiyue?"
"Not only do I know her, I'm quite familiar with her."
"But what did my brother-in-law mean by what he just said?"
"Have you heard that Fairy Shuiyue was seriously injured once?"
"Two years ago, Fairy Shuiyue was severely injured by the masters around the emperor in Liuzhuang, Yangzhou, and almost died. But later, for unknown reasons, Fairy Shuiyue not only recovered from her injuries, but her kung fu also improved by leaps and bounds, becoming a strong one among the masters."
"Since you have heard it, have you ever thought about what happened?"
"Do you know?"
"I healed Fairy Shuiyue's injury."
"Ah?!" Min Xiner was shocked, and then looked at Xian'er.
Xian'er nodded: "That's true. Your husband has indeed cured Fairy Shuiyue."
"However, I only saved her life, but not her meridians. Her condition was exactly the same as yours at that time. Her meridians were also destroyed and her martial arts skills were all lost."
"Why is this? Why is Fairy Shuiyue's kung fu higher now than before?"
"This is what I don't know. But that's the thing. Fairy Shuiyue did not know any martial arts for a while. The purpose of telling you this is to let you understand that the destruction of meridians does not mean that you can't practice martial arts. As long as you find a suitable
The method can also create miracles.”
Min Xiner stared, her pale face full of disbelief.
"After hearing this, do you still want to die so casually?"
Min Xiner did not answer, but her expression already showed how shocked she was at this moment.
As if thinking for a long time, Min Xiner said in a deep voice: "Brother-in-law, I will not seek death anymore. Xin'er will cheer up from now on. If one day Xin'er can return to the top, she will definitely repay the kindness of brother-in-law and sister."
Xia Shang nodded: "This is the best, and my hard work will not be in vain."
It seemed that Min Xiner had finally overcome her own worries, and Xia Shang could devote all his energy to dealing with malaria.
In the afternoon, people who went into the mountains to look for medicine began to come back one after another.
Based on yesterday's experience, today's medicine seekers brought back a lot more Artemisia annua, enough for the entire team.
However, the treatment of malaria is a long-term process, and the course of treatment is relatively long. Even if the disease is cured, there must be a long enough prevention period.
Not only do the people in the team need medicine, but they may also encounter some sick people along the way.
Xia Shang did not want to save the world, but at least he could save the people he met.
So Xia Shang decided to stay here for a while to prepare enough Qinghao in the team before setting off for Sichuan. (To be continued)
