Chapter 123 Villagers suffer from heatstroke and go up the mountain to collect herbs



Shen Shuli could also secretly use the drinks, ice cream and spiritual spring water in the space to cool herself down while hiding in the carriage.

But these five or six hundred villagers had no way to cheat and could only be scorched by the earth.

Especially among weak children and the elderly, many have shown signs of heat stroke.

Su Yunhai's skin was obviously several shades darker than before he fled the famine.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead and had to let the team stop to rest.

"My girl, this won't work. Why don't we travel at night and rest during the day?" Su Yunhai sat in the shade and discussed privately with Shen Shuli.

Shen Shuli naturally had no problem.

There are many things to worry about when traveling at night, such as the lack of lighting and having to rely on torches for lighting.

However, the torch's visible range is too small, which will also affect the team's travel speed.

Night is also the time when wild animals are most active.

...

...

Su Yunhai thought about it and felt that it would be better to discuss it with the villagers.

The villagers have already found places to rest in the woods beside the road.

The temperature on the ground is very high, and several layers of floor coverings are needed to provide insulation.

But the thicker the mat was, the hotter the place where the villagers lay would become quickly, and the villagers couldn't get a good rest at all.

Su Yunhai asked each household to send out one person and found a shady place to discuss the matter.

"Everyone can express their opinions. Just say whatever you want to say." Su Yunhai signaled to the villagers.

"Brother Hai, I think both are fine. No matter which one you choose, it's torture during the day."

"Yes, if it keeps getting this hot, we won't be able to rest well during the day. I think it's better to travel during the day. At least we can rest a little at night."

"I think it's better to travel at night. At least there's no scorching sun. My skin has been burned a long time ago and it's all ulcerated. During the day, I can find a cool place and set up a tent, so I can still rest for a while."

"Hold on for a few more days. Didn't Brother Gu say we'll be back in Qinzhou soon? I heard there's a big river over there, so it probably won't be so hot there."

Su Yunhai listened carefully to everyone's thoughts.

But the reality is that the daytime temperature is getting higher day by day.

According to the plot of the book revealed by my daughter, the drought will last at least three months.

The high will reach 55 degrees!

They must reach areas with abundant fresh water resources during the hottest periods to survive.

The prerequisite is that the villagers can successfully get through this difficult period.

After summarizing most people's opinions, everyone finally decided to travel during the day.

Su Yunhai respects everyone's decision.

After all, for the people of this era, night is a dangerous signal for them.

They will have an overwhelming fear of the invisible night.

final.

Su Yunhai could only ask everyone to reduce the time they traveled during the day and avoid the hottest time.

Originally, the lunch break was for a maximum of three hours.

Now I have to rest for five or six hours so that the sun won't be so strong.

Even if you avoid the hottest time period.

Some villagers still suffered from heatstroke.

Doctor Zhang had run out of medicine, so Su Yunhai immediately sent people to look for herbs in the nearby mountains.

Shen Shuli also set out with the young men from the reconnaissance team.

In addition to the original eight members, Shen Yuehua also selected a few good-looking boys and girls from the team for Shen Shuli to train with.

There are more than forty people in total.

Shen Shuli was helpless.

The more people there are, the harder it is to lead.

The reconnaissance team needs elites, not everyone can join.

Shen Shuli could only regard it as an early screening of qualified team members.

The vegetation on the mountains on both sides of the deserted road had long been withered by the scorching sun.

All the mountains looked withered, with very little green to be seen.

It is quite difficult for villagers who don't know anything about medicinal herbs to find the required medicinal herbs among a pile of withered weeds.

There are patches of grass and cloves planted in Shen Shuli's space. The quantity is not large, but the medicinal effect is good.

She must find a way to bring these medicines back today.

Otherwise, the condition of the villagers suffering from heatstroke will worsen.

Unless it was absolutely necessary, Shen Shuli was reluctant to use the little spiritual spring water accumulated in the space.

Shen Shuli asked the first group of team members to take a few new members to look for herbs in the nearby mountains.

She sent everyone away and went to search deeper into the mountains alone.

The plants in the deep mountains are still somewhat green, but are almost dead.

You don't need to look to know that the water sources in the nearby mountains must have dried up long ago, otherwise all the plants with strong vitality would not have withered.

Chen Shuli quickly picked a lot of Patchouli, Cloves, Jade Leaf Golden Flower, Anemarrhena asphodeloides, and some herbs that can treat diarrhea and vomiting and restore qi and blood from the space.

Another batch of water was planted, and the newly planted herbs were watered with one-fifth of the spiritual spring water, allowing them to grow quickly.

The picked herbs are dried and roasted outside on hot stones.

The herbs in the space are extremely fresh, emerald green and full of moisture, and they cannot be grown in the mountains today at all.

You have to pretend.

Although this treatment will cause some loss of efficacy, it is also the only solution.

By the way, I also prepared a batch of herbal tea in the space.

An hour passed before finishing.

Shen Shuli's consciousness immediately exited the space and found that the shaded place where she had just been was no longer there.

The scorching sun was burning her skin.

Even though she drank a few sips of spiritual spring water every day, her skin was still too hot to bear and she already showed signs of sunburn.

Shen Shuli was upset.

There are sun protection clothes in the space but they cannot be used. It is like having a treasure mountain but being able to only look at it.

Return to the meeting point.

Li Qinghe came up to him with an anxious look on his face and said anxiously, "Ah Li, we didn't find many useful herbs, and some people got sunstroke and fell. Brother Shen has already taken people to send them down the mountain."

Shen Shuli also felt a little heavy in her heart.

She just tested the temperature secretly when no one was around.

It's already as high as 44 degrees!

And it has maintained this temperature for at least two hours.

The weather is getting weirder!

That damn author should have traveled into his own novel and experienced his own masterpiece!

Shen Shuli was so angry that her teeth itched, but she tried hard to look calm on her face.

"I have collected a lot of medicinal herbs, including some that can relieve the heat. Hurry up and take people to send the herbs down the mountain."

Shen Shuli handed a large basket full of dry grass to Li Qinghe, and Li Qinghe's eyes widened instantly.

"Ari, you are always so lucky. You picked so many."

"Well, I'll go a little further. You can take the medicine downstairs and ask Doctor Zhang to prepare and boil it."

"Okay, I'll go right away. A'li, don't stay on the mountain. Come down quickly. We will be worried about you." Li Qinghe couldn't help but persuade.

"Okay, I understand." Shen Shuli smiled, revealing her deep dimples.

Li Qinghe was conquered by Shen Shuli's cute and beautiful smile.

It was the first time she saw her smile so sincerely, unlike her previous cold and distant self.
