After a day of traveling, everyone was exhausted and didn't want to say a word.
The temperature in the forest became lower and lower after the sun went down. Every family took out their thick clothes to cover themselves and lit fires around to drive away wild animals.
This time Lin Rui learned his lesson. In order to make it easier to return to the house and avoid going back and forth to explain to the night watchman, he took a few more thick clothes from the ox cart. After everyone was asleep, he secretly used the clothes to make a rough outline of a person, and then covered it with another thick piece of clothing. In order to hide himself, he deliberately chose a corner.
After making sure that no one had noticed what happened here, he returned to the house with peace of mind.
The house was still the same house, but I didn't feel as ecstatic as I did the previous times I came in. I ran to the storage room, picked up a bottle of mineral water, opened it, and drank it "Ton~Ton~Ton~".
He was dying of thirst! He was dying of thirst! He had been holding back for so long before finally drinking the green, almost hairy water. Now he just wanted to have his stomach pumped.
The temperature in my own house is more pleasant, unlike the woods where the temperature difference between day and night is so great that people will be too hot to death during the day and too cold to death at night. I also have to be careful about whether there are any wild animals.
What kind of hatred and grudge is that? If I have to travel through troubled times and start from hell, can't I become a rich man in a peaceful and prosperous era?
After quenching his thirst, he took out a few popsicles from the refrigerator to show off. Not to mention that Zhong Mougao's light milk flavored ice cream was really delicious. He thought about whether there was any way to get the Zhengjingyou to take it out for his nephew and niece to eat, otherwise he would feel guilty eating it alone!
If he wasn't so exhausted, he would also like to make himself some fried noodles, topped with seafood sauce and ice cola. Wouldn't that be the joy of summer?
No matter what, he is much more comfortable than others. After all, a useless golden finger is still a golden finger. With it, in troubled times, apart from personal safety, he can be protected from starvation, thirst, or trapping.
After eating and drinking, I returned to the camp and gathered my clothes to have a good sleep, but Lin Zijun next door suddenly lifted his clothes and stood up.
"Lin Zijun, where are you going?" Lin Rui asked when he saw that he looked hurried.
Lin Zijun covered his stomach, which was aching unbearably. "I think I have an upset stomach. This is the third time I've had diarrhea."
Eh~ Lin Rui frowned and waved his hand: "Go ahead."
During the hour he lay down, Lin Zijun moved back and forth five or six times, making it impossible for him to sleep. Even Lin Zizheng and Lin Zikun were woken up by his movements and became very annoyed: "Lin Zijun, what are you doing so late at night? We have to travel tomorrow!"
Lin Rui was the closest to Lin Zijun. Lin Zijun was walking back and forth, and his body was covered with the stinky smell of excrement, which also filled the area around them with the foul smell.
Lin Zijun wanted to speak, but his face turned pale and he vomited all the biscuits he had just eaten in the evening. The sticky and acidic stuff was all over the clothes of his wife who was sleeping next to him.
Niu Qin was awakened by her husband's movement. In the light of the fire, she saw that his face was pale. She was so frightened that all her sleepiness disappeared. She quickly sat up straight and supported Lin Zijun: "Husband, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me!"
Niu Qin's scream immediately made the quiet camp lively. Lin Changfa and Yu Lanhua were worried about their son, so they came over immediately. They saw that Lin Zijun's face and head were still sweating. Lin Zijun, whose legs were already sore due to diarrhea, felt his stomach churning again. He staggered and climbed up, holding on to the tree trunk, and walked towards the outer circle.
Lin Changfa was worried about his son, so he called his second son Lin Zizheng and third son Lin Zikun to follow him.
Lin Changxi and Feng Zhenniang were also woken up by the noise and were a little confused about what was going on: "What's going on?"
It was Lin Pingmao's daughter-in-law, Chen Zhi, who said, "I think he's had an upset stomach. He's vomiting and having diarrhea now!"
"How did you get an upset stomach?"
"Isn't it all the same food? Lanhua, what do you have for dinner?"
Yu Lanhua and Niu Qin were extremely worried at this time. When their sister-in-law asked, they replied, "It's the same as what we eat, just a multi-grain pancake."
Lin Rui thought of the only difference between Lin Zijun and everyone else: "My cousin has drunk raw water from a puddle!"
Yu Lanhua suddenly understood and nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, that's right. The child was extremely thirsty at the time and just drank a few sips to moisten his throat. How, how did he become like this?"
"Why can't it be like this, Auntie? The water in this puddle is stagnant. It has parasites, animal hair, urine, and even corpses in it. That's why I repeatedly emphasized that it must be boiled, boiled, otherwise my cousin's situation will happen."
As he was speaking, Lin Zijun was supported in by his father and two brothers. He was exhausted and had no strength left in his body.
Lin Zicheng, who was lying on the ground with his buttocks still swollen, felt sympathy when he saw Lin Zijun's situation. He glanced at the cart that pushed him today and guessed that his uncle would have to borrow it to pull his cousin tomorrow.
His family medicine box is stocked with some medicines for colds, fevers and inflammation, but there is really no medicine for treating diarrhea.
Otherwise, give Lin Zijun a Xieliting pill or montmorillonite powder now. It will definitely be very effective for the ancient people's bodies that had no drug resistance.
But this time... he can only rely on himself to hold on.
"It's not good to have vomiting and diarrhea all the time! Changfa, you have to think of a solution!" Yu Lanhua looked at her son with heartache, and her voice was filled with tears.
Lin Zijun's wife Niu Qin also sobbed and dipped a handkerchief in water to wipe him carefully.
Lin Changfa was overwhelmed by the crying of the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. Adding to his worry about his son, he also became slightly angry: "Cry, cry, cry! All you do is cry all day long. Do you think crying can make my son get better?"
Yu Lanhua's eyes were red as she yelled, "You are capable! You can cure my son!"
"I'm not a doctor!"
"You can't cure the child and you won't let me cry!"
Finally, Lin Changfa was at his wit's end and could only look to Lin Rui for help: "Rui'er, you've done business in Longting County and Linjing, and you've seen more than us. Think of a way to save your cousin."
He once saw on an outdoor survival program that when someone has an upset stomach in the wild, causing vomiting and diarrhea, and has no medicine to treat it, they can try eating an appropriate amount of charcoal. Charcoal can absorb toxins and water in the intestines, achieving a physical effect of stopping diarrhea.
He explained this method, and Lin Changfa slapped his head, suddenly realizing, "Isn't this the Baicao Frost you're talking about?"
Herb Frost? What is this?
Seeing Lin Rui's confused expression, Lin Changfa explained that Baicao Frost is the ash on the bottom of the pot after boiling. When they were young, their parents would give them Baicao Frost mixed with water to drink when they had diarrhea.
Before setting off from Linjia Village this time, the women in the family scrubbed the entire pot clean, leaving no dust at all, not to mention the herb frost at the bottom of the pot.
