Chapter 210 High Fever
Chen Ya's voice was very soft, and the trembling sound was clearly audible in her tone. "So many babies."
Feng Lan's heart sank. "What baby?"
"About a dozen of them, just born not long ago."
Tears welled up in Chen Ya's eyes. When she recalled what happened at that time, her heart couldn't help but clench. "They were all sick and dying."
After Chen Ya came back with the child in her arms, she was shaking all over.
"Those babies..."
Her voice trembled. "I'm almost done."
Feng Lan's heart tightened. "What are the symptoms?"
"The fever persists, the lips are purple, and the breathing is rapid."
Chen Ya recalled the scene she had just witnessed, "Some of them were already dying."
After hearing these symptoms, someone was suddenly stunned.
"etc."
She thought back carefully, "These symptoms are exactly the same as when my child was sick before."
Su Wenbin also remembered. "Yes! It was that high fever. I almost died."
"Then how did it get better?" Feng Lan asked.
"I got the medicine according to an old doctor's prescription."
A glimmer of hope flashed in Chen Ya's eyes, as if if you date first, you can go and help him, "I remember the recipe."
Feng Lan looked at her daughter. "Are you sure?"
"Sure."
Chen Ya nodded. She had really thought a lot about her child at the time, and she remembered all these things very clearly. "I know them by heart."
"What are you talking about?" asked the middle-aged man.
Feng Lan gave a brief explanation, and after listening to it, the man's eyes showed a glimmer of hope and his eyes immediately lit up.
"Then go tell them!"
Chen Ya shook her head and said without even thinking, "They won't believe it."
"Let's try it."
Feng Lan encouraged them, saying that it was better to try than not to try at all, as these children were still in their hands. "It's better than watching those children die."
Chen Ya took a deep breath, walked to the door and shouted, her expression was extremely serious, and so was her tone of voice.
"I'll cure those babies!"
Soon, the door was pushed open and two horse bandits walked in. Both of them had very serious expressions and were not satisfied at all.
“Who is talking nonsense?”
"It's me."
Chen Ya stood up and looked at the person in front of her silently, without a trace of warmth in her eyes. "I know how to treat those babies' illnesses."
The bandit sneered, as if he didn't quite believe her. He didn't even want to pay attention to her, and his words were full of derogatory meaning.
"What medical skills do you, a woman, know?"
"I don't know medicine, but I know the prescription."
Chen Ya insisted, her tone very serious, looking straight at her, "My child had the same disease."
"Nonsense!" The bandit didn't believe it and spoke in this tone, even with a bit of disdain, and wanted to leave.
Chen Ya became anxious, thinking that she absolutely could not continue to watch these children like this, otherwise she would not be able to sleep well at night.
"I swear on my son's life! If there's anything wrong with the prescription, you'll kill my whole family!"
Ma Fei was stunned for a moment. Normally, no one dared to use this method, which meant that this thing must be true. He thought about it and did not refuse.
"Wait."
The horse bandit turned and left.
After a while, the fake monk walked in with a ferocious look in his eyes.
"I heard you can heal illnesses?"
"I can't cure diseases, but I know the prescription." Chen Ya repeated, her expression very calm.
The fake monk looked at her, his eyes lacking much warmth, and there was even a hint of dissatisfaction in his words.
"What's the prescription?"
Chen Ya recited the entire prescription in one breath, even word for word, and told everything with a very serious expression.
After hearing this, the fake monk frowned.
"Are you sure?"
"Sure."
Chen Ya swore again, this time without any pause, and even her tone of voice was very serious.
"If there is a problem with the prescription, I am willing to bear all the consequences."
The fake monk pondered for a moment.
Chen Ya waited nervously.
If the prescription doesn't work, the consequences will be disastrous.
Three hours later, someone came to report.
"Brother, the medicine is ready."
The fake monk went to see it in person, and when he came back, his expression looked much more relaxed.
"The fever of several children has subsided." He looked at Chen Ya, "It seems you are not lying."
"Put them in a room alone."
He pointed at Feng Lan's family, and his tone and attitude were not particularly good. He was still as straightforward as before, "Serve them well."
Soon, Feng Lan and her family were moved to a relatively clean room.
There is a bed and a table in the room, and the conditions are much better than before.
"It seems that saving those children is the right thing to do." Su Wenbin said.
Chen Ya held her child in her arms, feeling mixed emotions.
"Where the hell did all those babies come from?"
Feng Lan shook her head. "I don't know. But it's definitely not simple."
After spending a day in the new room, Chen Ya discovered that these horse bandits were indeed different.
Although the person who delivered the food looked ferocious, his attitude towards her was obviously much more polite, and it seemed that his attitude had softened.
"Sister-in-law, do you have enough medicine?" asked a horse bandit.
"It's enough for now."
Chen Ya replied, "But we still need to observe for a few days. We still need to be a little careful during this period and don't take some things too seriously."
"Okay, if you need anything, just tell me."
After the horse bandits left, Su Wenbin came over with a very serious expression on his face. This is what it looks like when someone bleeds while talking.
"I always feel like there's something strange about these people."
"Why is it strange?" Feng Lan asked.
"They're so into those babies."
Su Wenbin frowned. "Would an ordinary bandit care so much about a child?"
Chen Ya nodded. "I noticed that, too. The way they looked at the babies wasn't like they were looking at merchandise, but more like..."
"It's like looking at your own child." Feng Lan continued.
The three of them looked at each other and felt that the matter was not simple. Everyone's expression instantly became a little different.
"I'll try to find out." Su Wenbin said.
In the next few days, Su Wenbin tried his best to get information from them, but these bandits kept their mouths shut and refused to say anything.
On the third night, Chen Ya went to feed the babies medicine.
When I passed by a house, I heard a quarrel coming from inside. The voices were extremely loud, and it seemed like no one could control their emotions.
"Brother, this is not a solution!"
"So what do you say we should do? Just watch the children starve to death?"
"But what's the difference between us and robbers?"
"Shut up!"
Their tone was very bad, their eyes were very serious, and they kept looking at them.
