Xiao Qiang kept talking nonsense, her face was burning red, and it was obvious that she was in great pain.

The women panicked, but were powerless to do anything about it.

Clearly, expired medicine is ineffective.

By daybreak, Xiao Qiang was burning up like a furnace, and no amount of hot water we kept wiping her body could help.

“I remember that Bai Wei took my first-aid kit back then. There should have been anti-inflammatory drugs in my first-aid kit. Xiao Qiang is in her current condition. Maybe if she could take a few anti-inflammatory drugs, it might improve her situation.”

Wang Xiaoxiao's voice was hoarse; she had been feeling extremely guilty since last night.

Seeing Xiao Qiang like this, Xu Wei's eyes remained red, and she struggled to hold back her tears.

Of course I remember Wang Xiaoxiao's first-aid kit, but last time we beat Bai Wei and the others so badly that they left in a sorry state, they must need medical treatment. I don't know how much of that medicine is left.

Moreover, if you go empty-handed and ask for it with empty promises, Bai Wei and his group will definitely not exchange it, and may even take advantage of your situation and offer a high price.

"Prepare some food, and I'll go and exchange it with them."

Wang Xiaoxiao nodded and quickly helped Xu Wei pack up all the edible things in the cave.

I took the basket with the remaining meat and dried fish and carried it down the mountain.

Bai Wei and his group were eating, the same food I had given them the night before as compensation for following me in the search for Xiao Qiang.

When they saw him carrying his things over, the eyes of several male colleagues lit up.

Bai Wei frowned and looked at me: "How is Xiaoxiao?"

At least he has a conscience.

“Her condition is very bad right now. I brought food to exchange for medicine with you. I remember that Wang Xiaoxiao’s medicine box should have had anti-inflammatory drugs. If you have medicine, you can have all this food. I only want the anti-inflammatory drugs from that medicine box.”

Lin Xubo was happily munching on a dried fish when he heard what I said. He glanced up at me and muttered, "That medicine is all gone. Where would she find any others? If she got injured on this island, she can only wait to die. Who told her to be so reckless?"

For the first time ever, Bai Wei glared at Lin Xubo, but Lin Xubo completely ignored him and continued to gnaw on the fish in his hand.

"I still have some medicine, but I don't know if I have any anti-inflammatory drugs left. Please give me some."

After saying that, he got up and went into the cabin, and I followed him in with my things.

Bai Wei lived in the innermost rest room, where there was hay and a tattered quilt on the wooden bed.

He rummaged through his pockets for a long time before finally pulling out two strips of medicine.

When I picked it up, I saw there was a strip of amoxicillin and only three roxithromycin pills left. This was a lifesaver!

"Give this medicine to Xiaoxiao first, it's all that's left."

After Bai Wei finished speaking, he looked earnestly at the basket in my hand.

I know Bai Wei is a businessman, and he always puts profit first. Besides, I brought this basket of things here to exchange with him.

Fortunately, he didn't take advantage of the situation, and I'm already quite satisfied.

So he reached out and handed the basket to him.

Bai Wei, beaming with joy, quickly accepted it.

I took the medicine, turned around, and hurriedly returned to the mountain.

Xiao Qiang was unable to swallow at this point, so I had to crush all the medicine, mix it with water, and feed it to her little by little.

They also applied the powder from the pills to her wound to prevent infection.

After a whole morning, Xiao Qiang's high fever finally subsided, and we finally breathed a sigh of relief.

For the next two days, we carefully fed her the last of her medicine.

However, Xiao Qiang remained unconscious.

He would occasionally utter incoherent words, and seemed extremely frightened and uneasy.

There wasn't much food left in the cave.

I used all the food I had before to buy medicine for Xiao Qiang, and the women have been taking turns going to the beach to collect seashells these past two days.

But we used to have meat to eat, but now shellfish are hardly enough to fill our stomachs.

I had Wang Xiaoxiao and Liu Jiaojiao take turns feeding Xiao Qiang water to ensure she was well-hydrated.

He then dragged Xu Wei along to the grove of trees where the skull had been found before.

Although I always feel gloomy when I come here, Xiao Qiang needs to replenish her vitamins in time given her current condition.

And there are apples in this grove.

Xu Wei and I brought several fruit baskets. We went into the woods and hurriedly picked the biggest fruits, filling all the baskets before heading back.

Xu Wei was tired, so I took Wang Xiaoxiao out to pick mushrooms and jicama in the woods.

I had previously given the fish baskets by the sea to Bai Wei and his companion. The two of us who were left had fish every day, which counted as some meat.

Moreover, the two short-legged birds on the mountain have been laying eggs, two eggs every day.

We've given both of these eggs to Xiao Qiang.

We blended all the nutritious ingredients into a paste to ensure Xiao Qiang could eat.

After three or four days of turmoil, Xiao Qiang finally woke up.

She first opened her eyes and looked around blankly, appearing somewhat dazed.

He looked around the cave, then closed his eyes and remained silent for a while.

When she opened her eyes again, there were some emotions in them.

When she turned her head and looked at me, her eyes reddened, and she suddenly burst into tears.

Liu Jiaojiao quickly came over and gently took Xiao Qiang's hand.

"Sister Xiao, please don't cry. You're still too weak. Please take care of yourself!"

But Xiao Qiang cried uncontrollably, feeling extremely wronged.

Seeing her like this, my heart ached.

But I don't know how to advise her, since I also bear some responsibility for her current situation.

At this moment, Wang Xiaoxiao and Xu Wei returned to the cave with baskets.

The two of them picked up some seaweed on the beach and caught some crabs and octopuses. When they came in and saw that Xiao Qiang was awake, Wang Xiaoxiao's eyes reddened, and she moved closer to Xiao Qiang, apologizing repeatedly.

"Secretary Xiao, I'm so sorry. I was indeed a bit harsh with my words that day. Please don't take it to heart! I really didn't mean to make you like this. Please forgive me!"

Xu Wei also comforted Xiao Qiang from the side, biting her lip and crying with tears streaming down her face, telling Xiao Qiang not to be sad.

"Sister Xiao Qiang, Brother Zhao has already taken care of your leg injury. You will definitely get better!"

Xiao Qiang cried for a long time before gradually calming down. She looked at us, sniffled, and lowered her head.

"This is not your fault. I was too impulsive. I thought I was dead, but I never expected to be alive and see you all. Sihai, thank you! Thank you for going out to find me and saving me!"

My heart ached, and I gently patted Xiao Qiang's hand. The cave, which had been oppressive for several days, finally came back to life.
