However, before leaving, Bi Qiaoan still dripped two drops of spiritual spring water into the trough, because she was afraid that her chickens and geese would suffer from indigestion or get sick after eating so many locusts.
On their way back, Bi Qiaoan muttered, "Being our chickens is so lucky. They get to drink all the good stuff that we never get to drink."
Shen Yanming shook his head and chuckled, "So what? In the end, they still can't escape their fate of being slaughtered!"
"That's true, but they've eaten so many locusts, I'm a little hesitant to eat them..."
Bi Qiaoan was a little conflicted, "But it wouldn't make sense not to eat!"
“We don’t lack meat at home, and we don’t necessarily have to eat it ourselves. If you’re scared, you can keep it and give it to Zhang Heping and the others.”
"Wouldn't that be inappropriate?"
"No, have Zhang Heping give the chicken a check-up before killing it. If there are no problems, then we can eat it. Don't worry, he'll be very grateful!"
Bi Qiaoan thought for a moment and said, "That's true. Nowadays, people don't have much meat to eat. You must remind him to give the chickens a check-up, otherwise I'll worry."
Shen Yanming smiled and nodded, "Didn't you put something good in the water? Maybe those chickens won't get sick, and their health will even improve."
"That would be best, they could absorb some of the spiritual energy."
Shen Yanming held Bi Qiaoan's hand tightly and walked forward. His little wife was just like that, never hiding her little thoughts, but also very kind. Shen Yanming felt that such a person was vivid and real.
After returning home, the two entered the spatial dimension.
In other words, people in high-rise buildings don't see each other much, otherwise, if the two of them kept their lights off at night for so long, people would have noticed something was wrong long ago.
After the two washed up in the room, Bi Qiaoan went to make dinner.
Tonight, Bi Qiaoan cooked a pot of rice, made a pot of chicken soup, and stir-fried several plates of vegetables. After she finished cooking, she called Shen Yanming over for dinner.
After the two finished eating and were planning to collect grain and fruit, Shen Yanming heard his phone ring outside the space.
That's right, they can sense the outside world while inside the space, but they usually only enter the space when they're at home, so they don't specifically observe the outside world.
Moreover, almost nothing major happened during the holiday, and their phones didn't ring even once for over a month after being left outside.
The phone rang this time; it probably really is something urgent.
The two hurriedly left the space, only to find that it was Zhang Heping calling.
Shen Yanming quickly answered the call and also put it on speakerphone.
"Hello, Yanming?" Zhang Heping's voice was filled with exhaustion and a hint of sadness.
"What's wrong? Tell me!" Shen Yanming's heart skipped a beat. What had happened?
"Grandpa Lin is dying. I... I'm heartbroken. Yanming, is there any way you can save him?"
Zhang Heping didn't know why, but when he learned that Old Master Lin was dying, his first reaction was to find Shen Yanming.
Perhaps it was because he always had access to information that others didn't know, or perhaps it was because he trusted Shen Yanming from the bottom of his heart, that he turned to him for help.
Shen Yanming also had a good impression of Old Master Lin. He frowned and asked, "What's wrong with Old Master Lin? Isn't he in good health?"
Zhang Heping sniffed and said, "After the hospital sounded the alarm that day, Grandpa Lin did not leave, but chose to stay at the hospital to help the doctors and nurses take care of the patients."
As you know, although the old man looks young, he is actually quite old, and no one dares to let him overwork.
But the old man always said that he was one of the few skilled traditional Chinese medicine doctors in the hospital, and that he had to be on the front line in times of crisis.
The old man persevered for a month or two, but recently he was suddenly diagnosed with the HZ virus.
When we asked him how he got infected, he wouldn't say. We later found out that the old man had given his mosquito repellent fragrance to a patient's family member.
The old man thought that there were mosquito repellent incense burning everywhere in the hospital, and he was wearing protective clothing in the hospital, so he should be well covered up and there shouldn't be any problems.
But as fate would have it, the incense in one corner burned out and wasn't replenished in time, so...
As you know, there is no cure for this disease now. The old man has been lying in bed for more than half a month. Many parts of his body are rotting, and he almost couldn't be saved after several shocks.
Yanming, if you have a way, could you...
I know this request will put you in a difficult position, but I really can't bear to part with Grandpa Lin. He's been a tremendous help to me throughout my many years of work, always treating me like his own grandson.
Shen Yanming felt very depressed after hearing this, but he was grateful to Old Master Lin.
Even disregarding the fact that Zhang Heping was able to collect so many top-quality medicinal herbs with the help of Old Master Lin, he should repay the favor given to Old Master Lin for taking the initiative to diagnose and treat him and Bi Qiaoan.
"Peace, I can't save Old Master Lin..."
Before Shen Yanming could finish speaking, Zhang Heping exclaimed anxiously, "Then, what can we do? I feel terrible seeing the old man in so much pain..."
Hearing that Zhang Heping was about to cry, Shen Yanming quickly said, "Let me finish. I really have no way to save Grandpa Lin, but I have found that the mortality rate of the HZ virus in Qinghua Country has decreased a lot recently."
I suspect the research institute has made some progress, but the final results haven't been determined yet, so they haven't announced them.
I know a big shot in Beijing. I'll call him in a bit and ask if it's true what I'm guessing.
If clinical trials have indeed begun over there, let's have the old man join the volunteer team to try the drug, to save his life first, okay?
"Okay, okay, please help me ask around. We're not worried about any aftereffects right now, as long as he can survive. I'll go talk to the old man's family about it in a bit." Hearing Shen Yanming say this, a glimmer of hope ignited in Zhang Heping's heart.
Seeing that Zhang Heping had calmed down, Shen Yanming said, "Don't think too much, take good care of yourself! When you have time, go and encourage Grandpa Lin, tell him to persevere, and we'll probably see a cure for the HZ virus soon."
"Okay, okay, I'll go right after I hang up. I'll definitely have a good talk with him."
“Alright, Qiao An and I will go see Grandpa Lin tomorrow.”
"Okay, let's talk about it when we meet tomorrow!"
After hanging up the phone, Shen Yanming called Qiu Man.
"Xiao Shen? What's up calling so late?"
"Mr. Qiu, there's something I really need your help with this time!"
"Tell me what it is, and I'll definitely help if I can."
“We have an old traditional Chinese medicine doctor here. He is a good doctor and a good person. He recently contracted the HZ virus and is dying in the next couple of days.”
I'd like to inquire about any progress at the research institute, even just a semi-finished drug, so that we can save the old man's life!
