Chapter 1029 In the final analysis, they still have to rely on themselves
Chapter 1029. In the final analysis, they still have to rely on themselves!
For most of the next day, Chai Yan and Hang Baiqiu walked around several large pots on the martial arts field, sometimes looking into the pots to see what was going on in the pots, and sometimes directing the soldiers to add firewood to the stove.
Whenever a pot of soup was finished brewing, Chai Yan would ask some soldiers to come over and ask them to line up in an orderly manner and drink up the allotted soup.
The decoctions prepared for the patients were carried to the hospital camp by the soldiers who served as assistants, and then given to the patients according to the doctor's instructions.
During this period, Jiang Yongshuang, Zhong Shida, Chen Lanzhi and others all came over. They would all chat with Chai Yan for a few words, mostly about various situations in the camp or how to deal with some things.
Hang Baiqiu was not idle either. He helped add firewood and light the fire, distributed decoctions and maintained order, and checked the dosage of medicinal materials. He seemed very diligent.
During a gap, Chai Yan suddenly brought a bowl of decoction and handed it to Hang Baiqiu, saying: "Drink this! You are just asking others to drink it, and you haven't drank it yourself."
Hang Baiqiu then remembered that he hadn't taken any medicine today, so he took the medicine bowl and drank it in small sips while blowing the cold medicine.
After two sips, Hang Baiqiu raised his head and asked Chai Yan, "Have you drank?"
Chai Yan smiled and said: "I don't need to drink. I am naturally immune to all poisons. Plague and other diseases have no effect on me."
"Just blow it!" Hang Baiqiu said and continued to drink the soup.
After Hang Baiqiu drank the decoction in one go, he asked again: "By the way, how many days will it take to control the current condition until it is cured?"
"It's hard to say. If it's fast, it will take ten days and a half. If it's slow, it's possible in a month or two..." Chai Yan thought for a while and replied.
"No, it takes so long?" Hang Baiqiu said in surprise.
Chai Yan smiled and asked, "Why, do you regret coming to the camp?"
"No!" Hang Baiqiu immediately denied it.
Hang Baiqiu was about to continue talking when he suddenly heard a commotion in the distance.
When I turned around, I saw many people running towards the direction of the commotion.
"What's wrong with this?" Hang Baiqiu asked doubtfully.
Chai Yan looked into the distance and frowned: "Maybe someone is sick again..."
"Ah!" Hang Baiqiu's heart tightened. There were eighteen more patients last night, and now there are new patients. The situation makes her feel more and more bad.
Chai Yan said sternly: "Sir Hang, help me watch this, I'll go see what's going on!"
"Got it!" Hang Baiqiu nodded heavily.
The next moment, Chai Yan trotted towards the place where the crowd was commotion.
As soon as Chai Yan came closer, he began to shout loudly: "Spread out, everyone spread out!"
While dispersing the onlookers, Chai Yan walked inside. When he arrived outside the camp where the incident occurred, Jiang Yongshuang and Chen Lanzhi also rushed over.
Chai Yan shook his head: "I just arrived, so I still don't know what's going on."
Chen Lanzhi stepped forward to ask about the situation, then turned around and said: "General Jiang, Lord Chai, two more brothers are sick and are vomiting..."
Jiang Yongshuang's face immediately darkened and he ordered: "Go and notify them immediately and have them taken to the hospital camp for treatment!"
As soon as the voice fell, someone passed on the message.
After a while, several soldiers who were the doctor's assistants ran over and carried the two new patients away with their beds.
Then, Chen Lanzhi ordered people to clean and disinfect the tent, and also used some of the remaining quicklime to disinfect the tent.
At this time, Jiang Yongshuang called Chai Yan aside and said anxiously: "Master Chai, more and more brothers have been sick since last night. It won't work if this continues..."
Chai Yan said seriously: "General Jiang, you are the coach and the backbone of the soldiers. You must not be anxious and stay calm! It is still in the early stages of the epidemic, and the number of patients will naturally increase rapidly, but as long as we let everyone
Keep taking medication for prevention and maintain a hygienic environment. After a few days, the situation will definitely improve!"
"Alas!" Jiang Yongshuang sighed helplessly and said in a heavy tone: "I hope so..."
Jiang Yongshuang chatted with Chai Yan for a few more words, and then went to calm the emotions of the soldiers around him. Chai Yan also walked to the martial arts field.
On the way back, Shangguan Peining suddenly spoke up: "Chai Yan, didn't you want me to give you a few leaves of the tonic bean yesterday to treat your illness? Why haven't you said anything this morning?"
Chai Yan secretly said: "I thought about it carefully last night, and it's not yet time to use the leaves of the tonic bean..."
"Oh? Why do you say that?" Shangguan Peining asked in confusion.
Chai Yan answered: "Because this is a plague and an epidemic! Have you ever thought about using the tonic bean leaves to control the epidemic from the beginning? What if the epidemic comes back after we leave and it breaks out again?"
Shangguan Peining said nothing.
After a pause, Chai Yan continued to say to Shangguan Peining: "We can't always stay here to provide help to fight against the plague and eliminate the epidemic. In the final analysis, we still have to rely on them themselves!"
"I understand what you mean. You want to see if those doctors can cure the plague. If they can't, then use the tonic bean leaves, right?" Shangguan Peining said.
"That's right! That's what I thought." Chai Yan nodded secretly.
Shangguan Peining was quiet for a moment and suddenly said: "Okay, since you have already made plans, I have nothing to say."
When the conversation ended, Chai Yan almost returned to the martial arts field.
Hang Baiqiu came over immediately and said, "I heard that two people are sick. Is it true?"
Chai Yan nodded and told Hang Baiqiu what he had just seen.
Hang Baiqiu's mood immediately dropped after hearing this, and he didn't say much for a long time.
After noon, Jiang Yongshuang came over personally and called Chai Yan, and the two of them walked to the hospital camp together. They wanted to see how the doctors were treating them during the past half day, and also asked what other medicinal materials and supplies were needed.
Hang Baiqiu wanted to follow, but it didn't work for a few big pots without anyone watching, so he had to give up and stay.
After entering the hospital camp area, Chai Yan, Jiang Yongshuang and others began to inspect the camps one by one...
Starting from last night, the hospital camp area began to smoke some medicinal herbs repeatedly. Whether inside or outside the tent, the smell of medicinal herbs was permeated, and the smell made me feel very relieved.
Most of the tents were clean and the mood of most of the patients was relatively stable. Only the tents with new patients were a little uneasy and agitated. Jiang Yongshuang spent a lot of effort to stabilize them.
Then, everyone came to the camp that Mr. Zhou was in charge of...
Just when Jiang Yongshuang was about to enter the tent, Die Wu, who was covered with a face mask, came out of the tent holding a large basin of soldiers' dirty clothes. The two almost bumped into each other.
