Chapter 36: Jishitang
Suppressing the uneasiness in her heart, Rong Xianxian pressed her forehead with a headache. She hadn't worked the night shift for a long time. Ever since she had Xiao Wai, she had never worked the night shift again.
Recalling the days dominated by the fear of night shifts, Rong Xianxian felt heartbroken.
Or should we train those children in emergency? It should be easy to learn the nursing of a single disease. After making up her mind, Rong Xianxian took a short break and watched the two children run to the training room to play. They were vigorous, lively and cheerful while running and jumping. Rong Xianxian was in a very good mood.
I thought about going to check on Ren Tian and the others next door. Ren Tian has a criminal record, and Rong Xianxian can't let them go now.
If we let them go, and they bring people to cause trouble again, then we will have ourselves to blame.
"Auntie, you are here? Please let us go, or at least give us some food! You can't let us starve to death." The most active guy saw Rong Xianxian come in, and hurriedly ran to Rong Xianxian and bowed like in a dramatic manner.
"You look quite energetic. Didn't I prepare food for you?" Rong Xianxian gave him a scrutinizing look. She didn't know if this guy was timid or just too lazy to move. He might not have struggled hard before, so the degree of lung atrophy was the mildest. After not seeing him for three days, apart from slight asthma, he had no other symptoms. He actually dared to come in front of her and act weird. Shouldn't she teach him a lesson?
Shivering at the malicious look of Rong Xianxian, this guy ran to the corner without saying a word.
"We are four grown men, and the little you gave us is not even enough to fill our teeth." another person continued angrily.
Rong Xianxian had prepared four bags of biscuits and four bottles of water for them. Since they wouldn't need to consume much energy if they didn't move, it would be fine as long as they didn't starve to death.
"You are prisoners, not my guests." Rong Xianxian sneered and glanced at Ren Tian.
She walked around the safe zone but didn't see Ren Cheng, Liao Yong and the others.
Although it was possible that they were incorporated into the army and sent to carry out missions, the fact that no one was seen made people feel that something was wrong. Even if others didn't say anything, the army would probably look down on Ren Cheng and that other cowardly guy.
Rong Xianxian was just thinking about it and had no intention of digging into the matter. They were all adults and had nothing to do with her. Rong Xianxian would not meddle in other people's business, but she was more wary of Ren Tian in her heart.
"What are you looking at? If you want to kill me, do it quickly." One of them said unhappily when he saw Rong Xianxian looking at them with scrutiny.
"We are in the army. She wouldn't dare to kill us even if she had the guts." Another one said in a rather fierce tone.
"That's right, you'd better let us go. Aren't you afraid that our comrades will come looking for us?" He seemed to be a little braver, but unfortunately, the louder his voice became, the more he felt chest tightness and breathlessness.
"Then let's wait and see." Rong Xianxian said with a smile.
Seeing how energetic they are, it’s a good idea to save food. They can just starve for a few more days.
"If you let us go now, we can let it go." He couldn't tell the difference between a frown and a frown. Could he be a fool? Rong Xianxian clearly didn't believe what they said. Ren Tian wanted to shut them up, but his heart ached when he got a little excited.
"You came here with the intention of killing people and stealing treasures. Would you tell others your whereabouts? Given the current situation, they might think you are cowardly and deserting the battlefield." Rong Xianxian said lightly.
The person who had just spoken turned red and white in the face, and the other person turned his head away in fear.
Even in the army, not all soldiers are brave enough to charge into battle. There are also some who are cowardly, afraid of death, and dissatisfied with the precarious life in the army. Rong Xianxian doesn't believe that these people have never complained in private.
"Knock, knock, knock," there was a series of rapid knocks on the door, and Rong Xianxian's heart skipped a beat.
"Sister Rong, come and take a look, Jiang Jie has a high fever." Wang Qirui said in panic as Rong Xianxian just opened the door.
Rong Xianxian closed the door with a "click", threw the key to Wang Qirui, said "lock it", and hurried next door.
What you fear will come true. Rong Xianxian's bad premonition became stronger.
Rong Xianxian's previous treatment was normal, so there should be no problem. Generally, there would be no fever in this situation. After all, it was discovered early, the toxic blood was treated cleanly, and the wound was not infected, so it would heal soon.
The wound on Jiang Jie's arm was swollen and purple, with a dark purple and faintly black blood line hidden under the skin, stretching across both ends of the wound, strangely eye-catching.
There was about half a bag of light pink poisonous blood in the drainage bag, and the drainage strip looked dry, but it was unknown how long it had been since the poisonous blood was drained out.
Rong Xianxian pointed at the drainage bag and asked, "How long has it been since the poisonous blood in this bag increased?"
When this question was asked, several people looked at each other in confusion.
"When did this blood line appear?" Rong Xianxian asked, pointing at the blood line.
"Just now, before the fever came." This time Xia Kai spoke quickly.
Rong Xianxian frowned. Perhaps it was because things had been going too smoothly recently, and was the previous handling a bit hasty?
There was no way to request a consultation in this situation. Rong Xianxian's mind was racing, searching for cases related to poisons.
Perhaps we shouldn't have done the drainage rashly, after all, the toxin hadn't spread so quickly before.
But even if it doesn't spread so quickly, the poison will accumulate in the body and will not disappear. It will only accumulate more and more, and when it erupts, it will definitely be more severe.
However, Jiang Jie's condition only worsened after she treated him. Rong Xianxian felt a little aggrieved and could not care about anything else. The most urgent task was to find a treatment as soon as possible.
Rong Xianxian carefully examined Jiang Jie's injuries. Jiang Jie's face was red with fever, his whole body was burning, and he was half conscious and half confused.
Rong Xianxian first gave him a fever-reducing pill, which took effect in about half an hour.
Rong Xianxian took out the golden needles and inserted the needles into several acupuncture points to protect the heart meridians and prevent the toxin from spreading too quickly.
Seeing Jiang Jie's confused look due to fever, Rong Xianxian felt uncomfortable.
She felt a little guilty. Before detoxification, the toxins had not spread so quickly. Now that she had a high fever, it was obvious that the toxins had spread into her blood.
"I'm going to Yijishiditang to get some medicine. Please help me take care of the child." Rong Xianxian said to the people around her.
"I'll go with you." Cui Lie stepped forward and said.
"Please help me take care of the children. The situation in Jishidiang is rather special. I have barrier beads on me, so it will be more convenient for me to move around alone." Rong Xianxian rejected Cui Lie's request. If there was any other choice, she didn't want to go to that place at all.
