Su Nian frowned upon seeing the waterlogged area. She finally understood why so many people were suffering from parasites. Although the soldiers infected with parasites had not directly drunk the water, they had purchased processed foods from the village, such as roasted melon seeds and dried apricots, which had caused the parasitic infection.
Chu Beichen couldn't help but smile bitterly when he saw Su Nian's expression. "Su Nian, doctors treat illnesses, not poverty. You only treat illnesses, and you can't do anything else!"
Su Nian nodded. She certainly understood this principle. If she wanted to save a village like this, it would not be enough for her, a medical student who had not yet graduated, even if she was divided into eight pieces.
In order to build momentum for Su Nian, Chu Beichen specially brought his own communicator and guard. Together with Chu Beichen, the three soldiers have attracted the attention of the villagers.
Chu Beichen had been here for three years and had participated in many activities jointly built by the military and civilians. He found the village chief and told him the purpose of Su Nian's visit. The village chief was overjoyed and immediately asked someone to use the loudspeaker at the entrance of the village to announce that a doctor was coming to provide free medical consultation.
Su Nian blushed as she looked at Chu Beichen and quietly reminded him, "I haven't graduated yet, this kind of publicity is really too much!"
Chu Beichen smiled and patted Su Nian's shoulder. "Don't worry, transportation is not convenient here. As long as a doctor comes, everyone will welcome him!"
The village is very small. It is winter now and there is not much farm work to do. In less than half an hour, most of the villagers have arrived.
Su Nian took the pulse of these villagers one by one, and listened to them talk about some of their other symptoms. After he had examined everyone, he found a total of thirteen patients infected with parasites.
Seeing that there were not many people around, Chu Beichen asked the village chief and the people infected with parasites to stay and explained the disease to them.
"Oh, how can we treat it?" An elderly lady immediately said worriedly.
"I'll prepare the medicine for this disease!" Chu Beichen had already decided to take on this job.
The village chief was deeply moved and grabbed Chu Beichen's hand, "Comrades of the People's Liberation Army, thank you so much!"
Su Nian stood by with a smile. The villagers saw that she was fair, quiet and pretty, and no one dared to shake hands with her. They all looked at her as if she were a fairy.
After finishing this matter, Chu Beichen said goodbye to the village chief and walked towards the village entrance with Su Nian.
At this time, there was a clattering sound behind him, and a little boy caught up with him.
Su Nian recognized that he was also a little patient, and immediately stopped and waited for the boy to run up. "Little brother, why are you running so fast? What's wrong?"
"This is for you!" The boy held a sack in his hand and stuffed it into Su Nian's hand without saying a word.
"Hey, wait a minute!" Su Nian wanted to call the little boy, but he had already run away.
"Forget it, let him go!" Chu Beichen knew that although the villagers of Baishui Village were not rich, they were very righteous and were unwilling to accept favors from others for nothing.
Chu Beichen opened the sack and found something that looked like a large carrot. He frowned and asked, "What is this?"
Su Nian's eyes lit up, and he reached out and fiddled with it, "This is Cynomorium songaricum and Cistanche deserticola!"
"Is it a medicinal herb?" Chu Beichen didn't recognize it. "What's it good for?"
Cynomorium songaricum and Cistanche deserticola are both warm tonic herbs, and are mainly used to strengthen male sexual function in clinical practice. However, seeing Chu Beichen's shining eyes and the equally curious gazes of the two little soldiers beside him, Su Nian could not bring herself to say this explanation no matter what.
"Well, it's a tonic!" Su Nian answered vaguely.
