Chapter 123 It is it, it is it, it is it
"Uncle Chen, your area is all swollen, does it hurt?"
Su Xue walked over and took a look. "This swelling needs to be reduced. Yuanyuan, do you have any ice packs in your storage space?"
"I think I should have it. Let me look for it."
Yuanyuan searched through her social media profile and found it.
Su Xue took the ice pack and applied it to Chen Youwei's chest. "Keep it on for ten minutes, and then I'll apply some medicine to promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis."
Applying an ice pack to the swollen area felt cool and refreshing, and the pain was immediately relieved.
Ten minutes later, Chen Youwei removed the ice pack, and Yuanyuan took out some medicine to promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis from her space, and applied it evenly to his injured area.
"How are you feeling, Uncle Chen? Are you feeling much better?"
"It feels much better now, it doesn't hurt as much, and the swelling seems to have gone down."
He smiled and praised, "Yuanyuan, you're amazing! You can do everything."
Yuanyuan smiled shyly.
After treating Uncle Chen's wounds, Yuanyuan went to Xiaobai's side and carefully examined its injuries. The bleeding from the cuts had stopped, and the wounds were healing quite well.
Xiao Bai rubbed against Yuan Yuan's palm, "I'm fine."
At this moment, the little saber-toothed tiger, who had been sleeping on the animal skin, woke up, opened its eyes, and looked around.
For a moment I felt lost, unsure of where I was.
It twitched its nose, caught Yuanyuan's scent, turned around, and crawled towards her.
When Yuanyuan saw that it was awake, she was afraid that it would be scared, so she quickly went over and picked it up.
"The little tiger is awake? Is it hungry?"
The little saber-toothed tiger snuggled against Yuanyuan's arms and responded with a cute, cuddly sound.
Yuanyuan took out a bottle of pure milk from her space and poured it into a bowl for it.
The little guy ate happily and quickly finished the small bowl of animal milk.
It fell asleep again shortly after drinking.
Even without asking the system, Yuanyuan could tell that its body was abnormal.
Yuanyuan cradled the sleeping saber-toothed tiger in the crook of her arm, gently stroking its furry back with her little hand.
"System! System! Are you there? Quickly help me see what's wrong with the little tiger?"
The tiger's mother said that it had been in poor health since it was a cub, but she couldn't explain what the problem was.
The system's voice quickly echoed in his mind: "Host, don't worry, I'll check for you."
"OK."
[Host, tests have revealed that this saber-toothed tiger cub suffers from congenital hip dysplasia and a mild ventricular septal defect.]
Yuanyuan blinked her big eyes, not understanding: "What is the hip joint?"
What is a ventricular septal defect?
Is it serious? Will the tiger cub be alright?
[Host, don't worry. If it's discovered early, there's still a chance of a cure. The hip joint is where the thigh connects to the body and hasn't healed properly.]
This can lead to weakness when walking, fatigue, and excessive sleepiness.
A ventricular septal defect (VSD) is a heart problem; it grows slowly and is much weaker than other saber-toothed tiger cubs of the same age.
"Huh?" Yuanyuan's mouth gaped open. Was it that serious?
No wonder the tiger mother...
"What should we do then?"
"System, is there any way to cure it? It's still so small."
The little saber-toothed tiger seemed to be dreaming, nuzzling its head against her chest and clinging tightly to her clothes with its little paws.
Yuanyuan gently patted its back to comfort it.
[Don't worry, host. Although it's congenital, it's still young, and with timely treatment, there's a high chance of recovery.]
"Really?" Yuanyuan's eyes lit up, and she instantly perked up. "Then how do we treat it?"
You can take her back and have a professional medical team treat her.
"Okay!" Yuanyuan was a little disappointed.
...
Chen Youwei and Zhang Cheng rested for a while and their strength was almost fully recovered.
Zhang Cheng looked at the little saber-toothed tiger in Yuanyuan's arms and asked, "Yuanyuan, is there something wrong with this little saber-toothed tiger?"
They all knew that Yuanyuan had a system that could provide her with a lot of professional knowledge.
Yuanyuan repeated what the system had said.
The three of them looked rather grim after hearing this.
With such a complex illness, he probably won't live long.
No wonder they were abandoned.
"It's so small and not in good health, Yuanyuan will have to take a lot of care of it!"
“I know, Uncle Chen,” Yuanyuan said, hugging the little saber-toothed tiger and gently patting its back. “It’s so cute, I will definitely take good care of it.”
When it grows up, maybe it can even protect me.
"That's for sure. Saber-toothed tigers are very powerful beasts in the beast world. When this little guy grows up, we definitely won't be able to beat him."
Yuanyuan nodded, agreeing wholeheartedly.
Half an hour later, the group ate some bread and milk.
Chen Youwei stood up and stretched his arms. "Let's keep going and take advantage of the good weather to walk a little further and try to find the kind of tangerine-like fruit that Yuanyuan mentioned as soon as possible."
Zhang Cheng also stood up. "Let's go."
Yuanyuan put the little saber tooth into a small basket on her back and patted Xiaobai's head: "Xiaobai, can you still walk? Do you want to come up too?"
"It's nothing, this little injury won't hurt."
………
The group set off again, heading deeper into the dense forest.
Sunlight filtered through the leaves, casting dappled shadows on the ground.
The surrounding trees were lush and green, and the chirping of birds and the roars of wild beasts could be heard from time to time, but strangely, no wild beasts approached them.
As Yuanyuan walked, she kept an eye on the surrounding plants, carefully searching for fruits that looked like oranges.
There were many unidentified flowers, grasses and trees by the roadside, some bearing small red fruits and others bearing purple berries, but none of them were the kind she was looking for.
However, they didn't sit idle; they picked a little of each one and kept a sample.
"Yuanyuan, look ahead, what kind of tree is that?" Chen Youwei pointed to a large tree not far ahead.
Yuanyuan looked in the direction he pointed and saw a very tall tree with branches laden with round, greenish-yellow fruits.
It looks a lot like an orange, only much smaller, about the size of a thumb.
You can smell a faint fragrance from afar.
"This looks like it!"
Yuanyuan's eyes lit up, and she said excitedly, "Uncle Zhang, Uncle Chen, let's go take a look!"
The group quickened their pace and walked to the base of the large tree.
Yuanyuan looked up at the fruit on the branch, and the more she looked, the more it seemed to resemble the one the system had described.
She took out a bag from her spatial storage and handed it to Chen Youwei. "Uncle Chen, could you pick a few for me? I want to see if they're the kind I'm looking for."
Chen Youwei nodded, leaped up, grabbed a tree branch, and with a gentle shake, several orange fruits fell to the ground.
Yuanyuan quickly ran over to pick it up, wiped off the dust, and then peeled one open. The pulp inside was crystal clear, much like that of an orange, and it also emitted a strong sweet and sour aroma.
Yuanyuan couldn't resist taking a bite. It was sweet and sour, and tasted even better than oranges.
She was even happier to receive the system's affirmation.
"That's it! That's it! We found it!" Yuanyuan jumped up excitedly. "Uncle Chen, Uncle Zhang, Aunt Su, you should try it, it's delicious!"
The three of them each took one, peeled it open and tasted it, and found that it tasted quite good.
"It's delicious, sweet and sour, and very refreshing."
"And after eating it, I felt less pain in my body."
