Chapter 3350 Extra Strong Sister 4
Bai Jingxing lifted up a child's head and fed him the medicine. After he drank it, he went to feed the next little patient.
The wooden shed is filled with seriously ill teenagers and children, most of whom have no parents or family members to take care of them.
She picked up a bowl of medicine, lifted the little girl's head and tried to feed her, but she vomited it out after just one mouthful, and kept dry heaving, her face almost turning red to purple.
Bai Jingxing was startled and quickly reached out to touch her forehead, which was burning hot.
She quickly put down the medicine bowl, turned around and ran out, "Mom, mom, there is a patient here with a high fever——"
The people in the medical tent were very busy, rushing to and fro. When they saw Bai Jingxing running over, one of them grabbed her and said, "Young lady, Master Zhou is not in the tent. Just now, someone tried to climb over the mountain, and the soldiers chased him, but he was hit by falling rocks, injuring several soldiers. Master went to deal with it."
Bai Jingxing stamped his feet and shouted, "But the people in wooden shed number eight have a high fever and are about to die."
She has seen several people in the past few days suffer from high fever and eventually die from convulsions.
Bai Jingxing turned and ran to find Zhou Man. He ran through two wooden sheds before he found her. She rushed in and said, "Mom—"
Zhou Man's hands were covered in blood. When he heard the shouting, he only took the time to look at her, nodded slightly, and walked to a wooden bed behind her on the right. She then saw a soldier lying on the bed, his body stained with blood, his eyes closed, his face pale, and he looked almost dead.
Zhou Man stepped forward and asked, "What's his name?"
Someone nearby answered, "Zhang Dazhu, I'm 21 years old this year, and I'm a small flag officer in Yunzhou."
"How did you get hurt?"
"I was kicked in the chest by someone who was trying to escape, and I was also hit by a rock."
Zhou Man leaned over and called him loudly, "Zhang Dazhu, Zhang Dazhu——"
The person on the bed didn't respond. Zhou Man felt his neck and chest and found that his breathing was barely audible and his pulse was almost gone. He turned around and ordered, "Bring me a needle!"
A medical assistant took out a very long and large hollow needle from the needle bag and gave it to Zhou Man. It was the first time that Bai Jingxing saw his mother use such a thick needle, and his eyes widened for a moment.
Zhou Man took it, touched Zhang Dazhu's chest, and then inserted a needle...
A stream of blood flew out, covering Zhou Man's body. Her expression remained unchanged as she pressed her hands against his left chest. The person on the bed slowly began to respond...
"Sir, he's alive."
Zhou Man then instructed the accompanying medical assistant, "He has blood in his chest. Give him hemostatic drugs and a prescription to strengthen the spleen and clear the lungs."
"yes."
Zhou Man handed the follow-up to the medical assistant, then looked at Bai Jingxing, "What's the matter?"
Although Bai Jingxing was wearing a mask, he did not hide his shock and pride, "Mom, you are so amazing!"
Zhou Man smiled at her and turned to wash his hands.
Bai Jingxing then remembered the important matter and hurriedly said, "Mom, someone in wooden shed No. 8 has a high fever. She is also twitching and vomiting."
Zhou Man went with her to see it, and asked on the way, "What's her name?"
Bai Jingxing shook his head. "I don't know. I only know that she is number 63, she is twelve years old, and she was brought here the day before yesterday afternoon..."
Zhou Man nodded slightly and quickly walked to wooden shed No. 8. The little girl inside had fainted. Zhou Man lifted her head and touched her forehead and pulse after making sure that she was not blocked by vomit.
She was about to give an order when she saw that all her men had been sent out and there was no one available around her.
She took out the needle bag and while giving her the injection, she said to Bai Jingxing, "Go to the pharmacy and ask them for the second set of medicine. If they have it ready, send me a bowl first."
Bai Jingxing agreed, turned around and ran towards the pharmacy.
When she brought the medicine back, the little girl who had been shivering and twitching had gradually calmed down. Zhou Man wrung out the towel to wipe her, took the medicine and fed it to her.
Bai Jingxing squatted aside and watched, and asked: "Mom, can she survive?"
Zhou Man: "Not necessarily, only a 40% chance."
She rolled up her sleeves to show Bai Jingxing that it was swollen and a little red. She whispered, "It was a flea bite. She scratched it. Jingxing, the rats and fleas in this area are very poisonous now. You have to protect yourself."
Bai Jingxing's eyes were slightly red, and he was a little scared. "Mom, will we also get sick and die?"
Zhou Man placed the little girl on the bed, turned around and whispered to her, "As long as you do what I say, you won't get sick, and you won't die."
Bai Jingxing nodded with red eyes.
"Come on, help me. There are too many patients, and all the people I need have been sent out," Zhou Man said softly, "You can read and recognize most medicines. Even if you just pass on a message, you can save a lot of people."
Bai Jingxing followed Zhou Man, running in and out every day to deliver prescriptions to her, get medicine, and record the patient's condition.
She thought her mother was treating patients who were already infected. Different symptoms required different medicines for different people. She watched one patient after another die and be carried out, and also saw one patient after another get better. After being cured, they became assistants, helping to take care of new patients in the isolation area every day.
Until one day she woke up late at night, opened her eyes and found her mother still sitting at the table. There were a lot of medicinal herbs on the table, and she was pinching the herbs and smelling them.
Bai Jingxing rubbed his eyes and asked in confusion, "Mom, aren't you sleeping yet?"
Zhou Man didn't respond to her, so Bai Jingxing lifted the quilt, got up from the bed, walked up to her and waved.
Zhou Man came back to his senses, grabbed her hand and pulled her aside, saying, "Stop messing around, we're almost there..."
"What's missing?"
"An adjuvant," Zhou Man pondered, "I'm wondering which one would be best."
Bai Jingxing's eyes lit up. "Is this a prescription for the plague?"
Zhou Man nodded slightly. "It can also be a prescription for preventing plague. After using it, and paying attention to isolation and hygiene, the plague in Yunzhou can be brought under control."
Bai Jingxing was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Mother, have you not slept at night these past few days?"
When the word "sleep" was mentioned, Zhou Man's eyelids became heavy. She tried a few times but found it was futile, so she simply closed her eyes according to her heart, but her mind refused to close.
Although I was very sleepy, my brain was unusually excited. It was spinning a little slowly and a little dizzy, but at least it was spinning.
She said, "Those who slept just slept less."
"How long did you sleep?"
Zhou Man was also a little uncertain, "Two hours?"
Bai Jingxing couldn't help but hug her, "It's only been two hours. Didn't mother say that staying up late and overworking can lead to sudden death?"
Zhou Man sighed and said, "Yes, but there are too many patients. If the prescription can be developed sooner, how many deaths can be avoided?"
After closing her eyes for a while, she felt much better. She tried to open her eyes, looked up at her daughter standing in front of her, smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, your mother won't die so easily."
"mother--"
