Chapter 18 Battlefield
Shu Yan called Yu'an's name anxiously.
"Yuan, wake up, don't scare my grandma."
Yu'an opened his eyes and started vomiting directly. He covered his stomach and said with difficulty: "My grandma, my stomach hurts."
Shu Yan was shocked when he heard this.
Digestion, malaria, or cholera...
Cheng San opened his eyes and said, "He is probably infected with the plague. I'll go out to find some herbs, but I don't know if it's useful."
Cheng San sat up, lit the fire first, then picked up his weapon and went out.
Qixiu took the pot outside to collect some water and prepared to boil water.
Qixiu said to Shu Yan: "There is sulfur outside. I heard from the nurse that wiping the body with sulfur water can cure the disease."
Sulfur can kill sterilization but cannot kill viruses.
Yu'an had a stomachache, so Shu Yan had to take him to the bathroom.
After going back and forth, Shu Yan was afraid that the child would be dehydrated, so he quickly cooked salt water for him to drink.
In this environment, only personal immunity can be relied upon.
Xiaoyuer was not idle either. She took out all her belongings and hung them on the branches to dry them.
Qixiu went outside and took a knife to deal with the huge sow.
The meat on the sows is enough for them to eat for a lot of time.
It is also a very good food for them who lack protein intake.
As noon approached, Cheng San came back with many herbs. He said to Shu Yan: "These herbs are used to clear heat and detoxify. I don't know if they are useful."
Yu'an no longer had diarrhea, but he was in a very bad mood and could not eat anything.
Shu Yan had no choice but to fry the herbs and drink them for Yu'an.
Yu'an fell asleep after drinking.
Shu Yan looked at Yu'an's little face and felt sad.
"You are more determined. We have all walked so far. It's a pity that we died halfway through the road."
Yu'an made a faint voice, which was considered to be agreeing.
Shu Yan put the child on the bed and walked out of the cave by himself.
The little fish was drying the quilt, the donkey was eating grass, and Qixiu was missing, Shu Yan asked Cheng San.
"Where is that child Qixiu?"
Cheng San said, "I'm going to take a shower."
Shu Yan smiled: "Girls must love cleanliness, and we have to pay attention to hygiene. There are so many sulfur ores here. If there is lard, you can still make some sulfur soap."
Cheng San smiled.
"Godmother is so knowledgeable. We probably have to stay here for a few more days. We just looked forward and saw that the only way out of the mountain collapsed and killed many people. Fortunately, we didn't follow the large army last night."
Shu Yan was stunned when he heard this, and then sighed helplessly.
"It's really not easy to escape. If I can really find a pure land and let me farm. When will this day end?"
Cheng San said: "Don't be discouraged, godmother, there will definitely be more difficulties than methods in the future. Throughout history, most people have lived like this, and if you have a son like me, what are you afraid of?"
It’s true that the days of peaceful and prosperous times are only a short period, and the rest of the time is full of various turmoil.
Shu Yan couldn't help but sigh, feeling in his heart, why did he not have any golden fingers?
Shu Yan looked at Cheng San, could his golden finger be this smooth-tongued guy?
Just as Shu Yan was feeling emotion, Qixiu's scream suddenly came not far away.
Cheng San hurriedly ran to that place, and Shu Yan's old arms and legs naturally could not escape him.
After they arrived, they saw many corpses floating in the water.
I guess it was the people who were washed away by the mudslide last night, but they didn't expect to die in this crescent spring.
Qixiu took off some clothes and shoes from a body.
She searched around and found something practical.
When Cheng San saw this scene, he didn't say much, but he also took things off the dead.
Several people returned to the cave, and Xiao Yuer was lying in front of Yu'an. She said, "I feel like he is a little better. Is Brother Cheng's herbs useful?" Shu Yan hurriedly put down his things and touched Yu'an's head.
This child has indeed subsided his fever.
Shu Yan couldn't help looking at Cheng San and praised: "You are really a miracle doctor. Do you still remember what herbs you have picked?"
Cheng San: "I can't remember, no medicine can cure the disease. This child is lucky. Goddess, you are lucky."
Yu'an's condition improved a little, and the big stone in Shu Yan's heart finally landed.
They got a lot of food and a few sets of clothes.
Xiaoyuer and Qixiu found another clean water source and washed their clothes.
Cheng San took the axe and chopped some wooden sticks of about the same thickness, and then used some torn clothes to fix the wooden sticks, making a rack for the donkey's back.
In this way, you can leave with Yu'an on your back.
They rested in this cave for another day before setting off.
It was a sunny day, and Yu'an's spirits improved a lot, at least he wouldn't vomit anymore.
The group bypassed the mountain road, walked out of the mountain for two or three days, and then walked out of the mountain.
See the endless plains.
However, there was no smoke rising from the cooking stove on the plains, only large areas of abandoned farmland and the corpses of soldiers who had already rotted.
A few days ago, there was a major war. The Han army and the imperial army fought several times here. Later, the capital was in a hurry and the Han army withdrew.
Crows were chewing human flesh everywhere, and Shu Yan and others were walking on the road.
The big sun above the head was scorching the earth, and Yu'an's little head couldn't stand up, and Shu Yan was a little worried.
But at this moment, I can only pray to God to bless this poor child.
The houses in the village were demolished along the way, and the court should have carried out a solid wall and cleared the fields, so they couldn't find anything useful.
I had to walk towards the big city ahead.
Everyone was speechless, but they were covered in fatigue.
It was finally dark and there was still no sign of the city, but there were many more fellow travelers who fled along the way.
There were hundreds of people in total. They were hungry and dusty.
Shu Yan and others found a place far away from the main force and placed it.
After walking along the way, Qixiu's complexion has improved a lot, while the wounds on her face have healed a lot.
Shu Yan said to Qixiu: "When I get to the city, I will find a doctor and give you a good look. They all look like they are sick."
Xiaoyuer said with a smile: "Ah Mi, Xiaoyuer is not sick. I am in good health. When I arrive in the city, I will work for Ah Mi."
Shu Yan reached out and touched Xiaoyu'er's head.
"You are a child, and children don't need to work."
Xiaoyuer didn't care.
"I am a child, I am a woman, and women all have to work."
This child is really hardworking and simple.
