"Doctor, I'm so cold, so cold."
A young woman who had just been admitted to the intensive care unit had goosebumps on her exposed skin, cyanosis of her lips and nails, pale face, trembling body, and chattering teeth.
Shulan had just finished giving another critically ill patient an acupuncture treatment and quickly instructed, "Tell him to rest well, drink plenty of warm water, and take his medicine on time."
Her voice was a little hoarse, probably from talking too much.
She hasn't slept a wink since she arrived yesterday morning.
This is because I've gotten used to staying up late before, and I'm also relying on my youthful body; otherwise, I really wouldn't have been able to endure it.
The patient's family expressed their deepest gratitude: "Thank you, Dr. Shu."
"You're welcome." Shulan approached the patient who had said he was cold.
He said gently, "This is normal. This coldness may last for the time it takes to drink half a cup of tea, or even up to half an hour. I will use silver needles to soothe you."
All she could do was try to alleviate some of their pain.
Malaria has four stages: incubation period, chills period, fever period, and sweating period.
So some people complained of being cold, while others said they were dying of heat, and still others looked like they had been pulled out of the water.
Someone asked fearfully, "Doctor, am I going to die?"
Shulan smiled and reassured them, "No, you don't need to worry. This illness isn't serious. These are all normal phenomena. As long as you take your medicine on time, you'll be fine."
One patient, who had previously had severe symptoms, was weak but cheerfully said, "Dr. Shu is right. I had a fever yesterday, sweated, and took medicine. I feel much better today."
He said optimistically, "Dr. Shu said that as long as I have one more fever, I'll be fine after that."
Many people nodded in agreement: "Yes, I feel much better now."
Shulan's smile remained bright: "So I assure everyone that as long as you take your medicine on time and maintain an optimistic spirit, you will definitely be able to overcome this epidemic and recover."
Although some people lost their lives that day because the condition was too severe.
More often than not, people were snatched back from the jaws of death thanks to the help of many.
I feel much better after taking the medicine.
The patient, who had just been turned around and was filled with anxiety, was relieved after hearing what everyone said: "Okay, we'll listen to Dr. Shu."
Shulan smiled: "That's more like it."
Hearing the laughter from the other side, Wang Yaozhi, who was inserting acupuncture needles, couldn't help but smile as well.
Thinking to myself, Xie's daughter-in-law is indeed different from the rumors; she's quite interesting.
Seeing He Fengmian come in, he whispered, "Let your wife go and rest. Don't overwork herself, or she'll collapse."
He Fengmian looked at the little woman whose eyes were bloodshot and came to her side.
Shulan noticed him and said with a smile, "You've come."
"Hmm," he said softly, "You should rest."
There were several patients nearby, whose granddaughters were all older than her. Lying there, they said with concern, "Dr. Shu, go and rest."
"Yes, Dr. Shu, we're fine."
It was almost noon, and Shulan was indeed very tired. She didn't force herself to continue and said, "Okay, I'll go and rest for a bit."
He looked at Wang Yaozhi, who was not far away, and said, "Doctor Wang, please call me if you need anything."
"Don't worry, I'll definitely call you if I need anything."
Shulan placed the silver needles in the small area where she was resting, and followed He Fengmian out of the intensive care unit.
The sunlight shone on her face, making her eyes a little dazzled. She couldn't help but want to shield her eyes with her hand, when she saw a tall figure shield her from the sun.
She paused for a moment, looked at the bearded man beside her, and then smiled and said, "Thank you."
This person looks rough around the edges, but is very meticulous in his work.
He Fengmian simply said, "Wash yourself with the decoction you prepared, eat something and rest."
"good."
They arrived at the main tent, and the room was exactly the same as it was yesterday, clearly indicating that the person hadn't rested.
Indeed, with so many people and so many things to deal with, and being a general, the tasks he had to handle were no easier than mine.
She said, "General, you should also take a rest."
He Fengmian glanced at her and said, "No need, you should rest."
At this moment, Shimo brought lunch.
It's just simple porridge and steamed buns, but it's good to have something to eat these days.
After the two finished eating, Shimo brought over two more bowls of medicine shortly afterward.
This medicine is for prevention, and it was prescribed by Shulan.
After taking the medicine, Shulan washed herself quickly, lay down on the bed, and fell asleep without even noticing He Fengmian come in.
Seeing that she wasn't even covered by a blanket, you could tell she was extremely tired.
Just a moment ago, she seemed so energetic and full of life.
He went over and covered her with a blanket, then strode out of the tent and said to the soldiers guarding there, "Protect her."
This was also a statement made to Shimo and Chu'er in secret.
When he came out, Qu Ming quickly came up to him: "General, the man we captured has been confirmed to be a spy for Kanjin, who wanted to find out about the situation of this epidemic."
Just as Shulan had suspected, He Fengmian hadn't slept since he arrived.
As a general, his role was not only to manage affairs here, but also to prevent several countries from making moves because of these refugees.
Last night, they caught a suspicious spy.
From the moment Qu Ming learned that he had brought back the epidemic, he harbored a burning anger within him.
After enduring all sorts of torment, the man finally spoke, revealing that Kankin wanted to inquire about the extent of the epidemic.
He Fengmian said, "Spread the word that the epidemic here is out of control."
It's time to teach some people a lesson.
Qu Ming immediately understood the general's meaning and, with a look of excitement, said, "Alright."
I immediately went to make the arrangements with great joy. I've been itching to beat someone up lately, to see who's unlucky enough to suffer.
After making the arrangements, He Fengmian thought for a moment and then called Chu Yi over: "Go to my elder brother's place and ensure the supply of herbs here. At the same time, have him strengthen the defenses in the city."
"Yes." Chu Yi disappeared.
When no one was around, He Fengmian glanced in the direction of the main camp and then strode away.
Shulan slept soundly and didn't wake up until about 5 p.m., feeling completely refreshed.
I quickly tidied my hair, and without even washing my face, I went to the intensive care unit.
"Dr. Shu is here." Wang Yaozhi greeted her with a smile, and also called her Dr. Shu, just like the patients.
"Dr. Wang." Shulan wanted to talk to him about something.
But then she heard Wang Yaozhi say to her, "Dr. Xiao Shu, everyone's condition is relatively stable now. I'm thinking of arranging for people to take turns on duty with you, so that we can both rest and ensure the safety of the patients."
Last night was extremely dangerous for many people, but now that everyone has taken their medicine, most people's conditions have stabilized. They are also able to handle any emergencies. Taking turns on duty is the best approach.
Shulan originally wanted to discuss this matter with him and listen to his arrangements, which made her even more convinced that he was definitely a time traveler.
Looking at him, I asked a question that any time traveler would ask: "Doctor Wang, do you know that odd changes and even remains the same?"
