Chapter 3310 The Trial of the Great Fool (One Hundred and Thirteen)
After a few minutes, Bailey was already out of breath.
"Pause, pause." The little fox panted and knelt down to rest, using a wooden sword as a support to barely avoid falling down.
Of course, he kept waving his sword around and jumping left and right lively, just like a boxer on TV. He thought that this would give him good dodge ability in actual combat, but in the end he just wasted it.
A lot of physical strength, and jumping back and forth also affects the accuracy of swinging the sword.
Elaine just suppressed laughter and raised his sword to block Bailey's attack while giving some advice to correct the little fox's obvious movement errors. Although he was not a professional swordsmanship instructor, he thought it was enough.
That's enough. For now, just correct Bailey's obvious mistakes.
Moreover, he kept silent about the jumping action throughout the whole process. The purpose was to make the little fox realize that the boxer-like jumping was not suitable for swordsmanship at all. After all, the blade of the sword is different from the fist. When it is used in a wide range
Sweeping will inevitably lead to a change in the body's center of gravity, which conflicts with continuous jumping and dodging. Only when the blade is used extremely skillfully can it be possible to move continuously at high speed without sacrificing accuracy.
To attack. But the current Bailey absolutely cannot do this. He is just a beginner. That kind of continuous bouncing will not bring much benefit to Bailey. Because he lacks skills, he is still unable to dodge attacks.
If you can't dodge, jumping around is just a waste of energy.
The result turned out to be like this. In less than ten minutes, Bailey was out of breath. Elaine was even a little worried that the little fox's asthma would attack again - luckily it didn't happen yet.
"Did you do a good exercise?" Elaine said at this time: "You jumped, it was quite fun to jump around. Are you planning to practice basic physical strength and swordsmanship together?"
"Oh, big brother is entertaining me!" The little fox regained his breath and complained: "Why didn't you tell me from the beginning that jumping back and forth is useless!"
"Then, is that called a jump step..." the white lion man thought thoughtfully: "You watch too much TV? Do you think acting is the same as reality?"
"Ah hahaha..." Bailey smiled awkwardly.
"Your physical strength is not enough to begin with. When fighting with others, you should focus on defense first and look for opportunities to dodge. Keep dodging, dodging here and there, in all the bells and whistles, but the result will be true. The one where you really need to dodge.
Isn't it a joke to be hit but unable to dodge?"
"Hey~ I understand, big brother is so strict!" The little fox stuck out his tongue.
There seemed to be a slight whistling sound in his voice, which was a precursor to an asthma attack. So Elaine nervously put away her sword and called to stop: "First, let's practice until this point. Quickly, calm down your breathing, put on the cloak,
Don't catch it, you're catching a cold."
"Okay." The little fox went over to pick up his cloak and put it on, even though he was sweating a little. He could hear the whistle himself, and knew that things were starting to get a little bad, so he didn't dare to continue doing this.
"Would you like to take another hot bath? If you are the only one taking a bath, I can get you a bucket to put hot water in."
"No need, I didn't sweat much!" Bailey waved his hand and said, and immediately changed from the tired panting just now to a lively look: "I'm going to help prepare dinner, hehe~"
There is really nothing we can do about this child...
Elaine turned her eyes and looked at Queeg next to the campfire. The leopard was making soup in front of the big pot, and the aroma of potato stew and beef was spreading. He was stirring the soup pot in the big pot with one hand, but subconsciously scratched it with the other hand.
He scratched the bald spot on his chest.
"Don't scratch! I've told you not to scratch!" Elaine said quickly.
The area on Queeg's chest has been coated with medical gel and wrapped with a bandage to isolate it from outside contact. However, it may still be a little itchy, and the leopard still subconsciously scratches it from time to time.
"If you scratch it again, it will get worse!" Elaine angrily approached Queeg: "You, if you can't control your hands anymore, I will tie your hands!"
"Sorry." Leopard smiled awkwardly: "It's itchy."
"Have you taken anti-allergy medicine?"
"After eating, it doesn't itch anymore." Queeg tilted his head: "But, there is still a little bit."
"Be patient, be patient! You are an adult, why are you so poor in self-control!"
"Sorry, sorry." Leopard Compensation is not.
"Let me help you, Uncle Queeg." Bailey came over and said, "If you are sick, just go and rest."
"Let, let your child play near an open fire without adult supervision...?" Elaine wondered. This sounded like a sign of trouble.
"I'll pay attention." Bailey stuck out his tongue: "Just stir the pot of beef stew and do nothing else?"
"Anyway, please pay attention to your safety." The white lion boy helped Queeg, who looked uncomfortable, and said, "You, you should go to the tent and have a sleep. I'll call you during dinner."
"But……"
"No, you, you don't look right. Well, that anti-allergic medicine has serious side effects. It will make you sleepy easily. If you feel sleepy, it's best to go to sleep. Don't, don't show off."
"Okay..." Queeg weakly agreed, then hummed: "...Huh?"
Boom. He started to lose the balance of the big cat and fall forward. Originally, the white lion boy was supporting Queeg, but Queeg's weight was beyond the range that Elaine could support. As a result, Elaine couldn't support him for a while and could only
Let Queeg fall to the ground. All he could do was provide a slight buffer to prevent Queeg from falling heavily.
"Hey, hey! Are you okay?!" Facing this sudden change, Elaine exclaimed.
"What's wrong?" Edmund heard the noise here and stuck his head out from the second floor window of the house next to him.
"Uncle Queeg is down," Bailey answered.
"Sure enough, you are still sick. What kind of strange disease is it?" Edmund jumped out of the house and came over to check the situation.
Elaine had already turned Queeg over, who had fallen on his back, and reached out to the leopard's forehead to feel the heat.
It was just a low fever. But the patient was unconscious and began to whisper nonsense.
Between the gaps in the leopard's hair, you can feel some swollen pustules, about the size of wheat grains.
It seemed that Queeg not only had herpes on the small bald area on his chest, but similar things began to grow all over the leopard's body. It's just that those areas were covered with hair, making it difficult to detect.
Is this an infectious disease? Elaine gasped. If so, everyone who just took a bath with Queeg may be infected. If everyone suddenly collapses like Queeg, the problem will be serious.
.
But why does this pustule look so familiar?
"Oh, it's chickenpox." Edmund, the blood lion, also came over to take a look at Queeg and immediately asserted.
"Water, chickenpox..." Elaine frowned, wondering why Queeg was suddenly infected with chickenpox.
"Uh, is it my fault?" Bailey suddenly surrendered: "I had chickenpox a month ago and recovered after two days. Maybe I still carry the germ?"
"Yes, it's a virus." Elaine corrected.
But Bailey was right. The prisoner found the criminal right away, and it was Bailey. Chickenpox is an acute infection caused by the herpes zoster virus. Children between the ages of two and six are usually the most susceptible to the infection. This is the same whether they are humans or orcs.
Generally speaking, after being infected with chickenpox and recovering from it, that person will have lifelong immunity to the virus. However, the virus may still have an incubation period and continue to stay in the host and infect others. This probability is very low, but it is not impossible.
.
Quigg and Bailey have been in such frequent contact recently, so he probably contracted the infection during the contact. Moreover, Quigg was an ancient man four thousand years ago. It is estimated that there was no such thing as the herpes zoster virus in that era. Quigg was very concerned about this kind of virus.
The virus is completely defenseless.
Unlike children, the symptoms of chickenpox in adults are more severe. Queeg is suffering from chickenpox and has a low fever - just having a low fever is the best of misfortunes. The biggest problem is that chickenpox is as common in children as it is in children.
It can be cured in a day or two. The symptoms of chickenpox in adults are more severe, and it is unknown how long it will take to recover.
(Queg, this idiot, got chickenpox at this time!)
(…But it’s not his fault, after all, it was Bailey who infected him!)
"Your Highness, have you ever had chickenpox before?" Edmund asked with concern: "If you have never had chickenpox, I suggest you stay away from Mr. Quigg."
"I had chickenpox when I was a child," Elaine replied. Although he almost couldn't remember what happened when he was a child, he had a vague feeling that he had chickenpox.
From the tone of Edmund's tone, he must have grown up too. In other words, except for Queeg, everyone present was immune to chickenpox.
This was the greatest blessing among misfortunes. After all, Elaine and the others had just taken a bath with Queeg. If Queeg had not contracted chicken pox, but some other terrible skin disease, everyone would have been affected.
"I'll give the room to Mr. Quigg. If you get chickenpox, you need to have a good rest in a ventilated room." Edmund picked up the unconscious Leopard and walked toward the house.
"What should I do? Did I hurt Uncle Queeg?" Bailey looked guilty.
"No, it's not your fault, it's just chickenpox." Elaine comforted the little fox: "Let Queeg rest for a day or two and he will get better."
Fortunately, he had brought various antibiotics. Among them, acyclovir, especially acyclovir, has a good inhibitory effect on the herpes zoster virus. If Queeg uses that, the leopard will recover within a day or two.
Chickenpox will heal itself in a short time even if you leave it alone. However, it will be more painful for adults to get chickenpox.
"I have placed Mr. Queeg in a ventilated room." Edmund returned and reported: "Let him rest on the bed, covered with a blanket to keep warm, and put a wet towel on his forehead to dissipate heat. This is how we will deal with it for the time being."
"Thank you for your hard work." Elaine also searched for antibiotics and syringes in the medicine bag, and found a bottle of acyclovir: "Note, after injecting antibiotics and resting for one night, you should be fine."
"Hey! How scary!" Bailey looked at the sharp needle on the syringe and stuck out his tongue.
"Haha..." Elaine quickly removed the syringe from the little fox's eyes and walked into the house to inject Queeg with antibiotics.
"Anyway, let's cook the food first." Edmund smiled bitterly and said, "Can you leave some diluted food for Mr. Queeg to make it easier to eat?"
"Then I'll prepare a bowl of stew for Uncle Queeg and mashed the potatoes in it. It's a pity that he can't eat meat, hehe." The little fox continued to stir the pot of stew.
