Chapter 415: Flames Expel Evil Spirits and Bring Good Luck

"The information of the rescued people is all here. Check to see if there is the person you are looking for." The rescue team handed the notebook to Shu Yue and went out.

Shu Yue opened the notebook and looked for it from beginning to end.

The uncle said Tong Yao’s grandmother was called Dong Xiufen, so she started looking for her daughter based on this name.

Many people had been rescued in the past two days, and the notebook was filled with names. She flipped from the first page to the last page and read it again, but still could not find the name Dong Xiufen.

"Were they not rescued?"

She saw a booklet on the table with the names of the people who had escaped written on it. There were many names on it, and she flipped through it from beginning to end, but still hadn't seen this name.

Finally, there was only one other book left.

Shu Yue glanced at the black notebook at hand, which was the list of people who died in the earthquake.

She stared at the black spot and didn't dare to open it.

"Host, what are you hesitating about?"

The system looked at her motionlessly for a long time and asked her curiously.

"I don't dare to look."

If she saw Tong Yao's grandmother's name in it, Shu Yue didn't know how to explain it all to the child.

She was also raised by her grandmother, and she knew clearly what this only relative meant to Tong Yao.

Shu Yue hesitated for a long time, and finally opened the black notebook.

As soon as I walked out of the tent, Shu Huai came to me in a hurry.

"Sister, Mr. Fu has a fever."

Shu Quan handed the thermometer in his hand to Shu Yue and said, "After being caught in the rain and driving for more than ten hours without a break, your immunity is weakened and this is what will happen."

The mercury jumped to 39.8°, a high fever.

Shu Yue touched Fu Jingshen's forehead, which was as hot as freshly boiled water.

"He has already been given a fever-reducing injection. As for the medicine, tell him to get up and take it before going to sleep. If his fever can be gone by tomorrow morning, everything will be fine." As Shu Quan was speaking, Shu Lin brought in several thick quilts from outside to cover his face.

"Cover him with this quilt, cover him tightly, and everything will be fine after he sweats."

It's rare to see Shu Lin's caring side.

Seeing Shu Yue's expression, Shu Lin explained, "I don't want him to burn out his brain, otherwise I won't feel comfortable leaving you to him."

Shu Yue smiled and said, "Thank you, second brother."

Shu Lin helped to cover Fu Jingshen with the quilt, pressing him tightly in every aspect so that no wind could get in.

"Take good care of him. I'll be leaving first."

After Shu Lin left, only Shu Yue and Fu Jingshen were left in the tent.

Shu Quan told him to take the medicine before going to sleep, so Shu Yue called him.

"Fu Jingshen, wake up. Get up and take medicine first, then go to sleep." Seeing that he didn't respond, Shu Yue pushed him again. After a long time, Fu Jingshen finally opened his eyes. His eyes were dull and he seemed to have no idea what he was doing.

"Take medicine."

Shu Yue held his head and stuffed the pill into his mouth.

There was no taste in the mouth. As soon as the pill was put on the tongue, the bitter taste of the medicine directly covered the entire mouth. Fu Jingshen frowned, "Bitter."

"You have to endure the hardship and be obedient."

Shu Yue handed him the prepared medicine again. He drank a few sips in a daze and swallowed the pills. Only after he finished drinking it did Shu Yue let him lie down again.

The back of his head felt heavy, so he lay down and fell asleep again.

It was like being trapped in a swamp, unable to move. My entire body was covered by mud on all sides, with only my head exposed, gasping for breath.

Shu Yue took a towel dipped in cold water and kept wiping his face and forehead, in order to reduce his temperature and fever quickly.

This whole ordeal lasted until dawn.

Shu Yue heaved a sigh of relief when she felt his head wasn't so hot anymore. She closed her eyes, rested her head on the edge of the bed and fell asleep.

"Shu Yue, let me..."

When Shu Quan came in, he happened to see Fu Jingshen woke up. He was trying to get up and carry Shu Yue to the bed.

"He looks energetic and has the strength to hug someone." Shu Quan chuckled and walked over.

Fu Jingshen didn't say anything. He moved Shu Yue to the bed and covered her with a quilt. He put on his coat and walked to Shu Quan, actively cooperating with him to check and measure her temperature.

Shu Quan took his temperature again. "37.9°, still a bit of a low fever. Remember to take medicine, rest more, and wear more clothes."

Seeing that he was only wearing a thin coat, Shu Quan couldn't help but give him some advice.

"good."

As soon as Shu Quan left, Fu Jingshen's phone rang. Afraid of waking up Shu Yue, he covered the phone and prepared to go out to answer it. When he saw the military coat hanging next to the chair, he was stunned for two seconds, but finally picked it up and put it on before going out.

You still have to listen to the doctor's advice.

"What's up?"

The call was from Xu Xiaoliu.

"Mr. Fu, you finally answered the phone." Xu Xiaoliu had been calling him yesterday, but his phone was either turned off, no one answered, or the line was busy. Now the call finally got through.

"You want me to help you look after Fu Heming, right? Something happened to him."

Xu Xiaoliu explained Fu Heming's situation to Fu Jingshen.

"He was sitting at home fine, and suddenly vomited blood for no apparent reason. The doctor said he was hit by a heavy object. He also had multiple abrasions on his body. He is still running a fever and unconscious. Do you think it could be haunted?" Xu Xiaoliu could only think of this possibility.

Otherwise it doesn't make sense at all.

Fu Jingshen listened to Xu Xiaoliu and glanced at the tent.

The reason why Shu Yue can lie there and sleep safely now is probably because all her injuries have been transferred to Fu Heming.

Although he did not come to Nanjiang, he personally experienced the harm caused by the earthquake.

"I understand. Keep watching him and report to me when he wakes up."

Fu Jingshen hung up the phone after he finished speaking.

The sun is out today, and my body feels warm standing in the sun.

The rescue work is still ongoing, but it is hard to say what happens to the lives of those who have not been found yet.

After the Nanjiang earthquake, many people donated supplies and money. Mr. Bai, who was far away in Beijing, also donated a large sum of money. He also brought a message, asking Shu Yue to return quickly.

Shu Yue just said yes, but didn't say when she would go back.

After clearing away the ruins of the buildings, a large piece of land was cleared in front of the tent. The townspeople brought in firewood and set it up on the ground. When it got dark, they gathered together and lit the pile of firewood with torches.

As soon as Shu Yue went out, he saw the fire rising into the sky, illuminating the whole world.

The bright red flame jumped like a burning heart.

"Come quickly."

Someone grabbed Shu Yue's hand and led her to the tall flames.

The firelight reflected on everyone's face, collecting their joy and sorrow after the disaster into the fire one by one. The flames rushed to the sky and finally turned these emotions into ashes and scattered them down.

Someone held Shu Yue's left hand. She turned her head and saw that it was Fu Jingshen.

"Flames can drive away evil and bring good fortune. Make a wish. It can cut through the dark sky and carry your wishes to the gods."

Everyone gathered around the bonfire, clasped their hands together and prayed.

Shu Yue also followed their example and closed her eyes.

[I made a wish beside the bonfire, wishing you no disaster or misfortune, and wishing you happiness and health in your life. 】
