Chapter 63 Xia Fanxing says she has a solution
Qiao Feitian, as a "medical hero", is about to hold a series of lectures throughout the division.
Anyone with eyes can see that the division headquarters wants to use this opportunity to cultivate the image of a progressive young man and establish a good role model.
Qiao Feitian is undoubtedly the best choice, regardless of her family background, job, or abilities.
Before leaving, Qiao Feitian made a special trip to see Xie Jingchen.
"Jingchen, you must take good care of yourself while I'm gone. I'll call you whenever I have time." She spoke with Xie Jingchen in her heart and eyes.
Qiao Feitian really loves Xie Jingchen.
I liked him as a two-dimensional character when I read the book, but after transmigrating into the book, I was even more attracted by his appearance and personality, and I have long been deeply in love with him and can't extricate myself.
But she knew a common saying: being love-struck never ends well.
So even though Xie Jingchen has renewed her engagement, she cannot give up her career for a man.
Compared to Qiao Feitian, who was almost in tears, Xie Jingchen's attitude was quite indifferent.
He is not good at caring for people, and even less good at saying nice things.
So he simply copied Qiao Feitian's words verbatim, "You also need to take good care of yourself... and the child."
Qiao Feitian left, turning back every few steps, and Xie Jingchen didn't even bother to see her off.
As soon as he turned around, he saw the soldiers all glancing in his direction.
His expression was stern, and his voice was even colder: "What's so interesting? You're all so free, aren't you? One hour of weight training for everyone!"
The soldiers all looked distressed, but dared not utter a word of complaint, and quickly prepared to carry the load.
One of the soldiers was slightly behind.
Xie Jingchen noticed that he would stop after taking two steps and twist his feet hard against the ground a few times.
"What's wrong with you? Are your shoes not fitting? Or is there something inside them?" Xie Jingchen asked as he walked over to him.
The soldier immediately straightened his back and shouted, "Reporting, Commander! It's not that my feet don't fit, nor is there anything wrong with them. It's just that for the past few days, my feet have been incredibly itchy, and the more I scratch, the itchier and more painful they become!"
Even as he said those words, the soldier already showed signs of unbearable pain.
He couldn't help but tremble all over, as if the itching and pain were penetrating his bones and gnawing at every inch of his soul.
Xie Jingchen frowned. "Is it that serious? Take off your shoes and let me see."
"yes!"
The soldier obeyed the order, sat down on the spot, and began to take off his military boots.
Xie Jingchen sensed something was wrong when he took off his socks.
It's winter now, so even if you sweat during training, your socks won't feel so sticky.
The soldier carefully took off his socks, but still brought with him pieces of skin sticky with mucus.
When the soldier's feet were fully visible in front of Xie Jingchen, Xie Jingchen frowned even more deeply.
Although he didn't know anything about medicine, he could tell that the ulcerated and swollen foot was clearly not in a normal condition, and it couldn't possibly be just athlete's foot!
Xie Jingchen said, "Don't move, I'll go find someone to help you take a look."
Xie Jingchen quickly found a doctor at the regimental hospital. After examining the patient, the doctor said it wasn't a big deal, and prescribed some medication as part of the standard infection treatment.
They thought the treatment was over, but unexpectedly, the soldier developed a high fever that very night.
Not only him, but most of the soldiers in his dormitory also developed high fevers.
Moreover, they all had varying degrees of redness, swelling, and ulceration on their feet and bodies, clearly indicating that they had been infected by him!
Xie Jingchen realized something was wrong, but it was too late.
The disease began to spread rapidly within the troops, and in just one night, very few healthy soldiers remained.
The regimental hospital held an emergency meeting and simultaneously informed the division headquarters of the matter.
Xie Jingchen also called his superiors for help, requesting that military doctors be dispatched to help them control the illness.
Based on their understanding, the regimental hospital speculated that this was a rare, cold-resistant parasite that hid in the snow. It entered the human body through tiny breaks in the skin, causing severe skin ulcers and high fever.
During the meeting, a doctor raised a question: "But the soldiers are all dressed so thickly, almost completely covered up, how could parasites in the snow get onto them?"
While the others were puzzled, Xie Jingchen paused for a moment and replied, "I made them insist on washing themselves every day to keep their bodies clean."
"In my experience, this can reduce a lot of diseases. But I asked them today and found out that some people either want to save water or are lazy, so they don't wash with water, but directly wash their bodies and feet with snow. That's probably why they get parasitized."
Upon hearing this reason, everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.
Xie Jingchen's experience was correct, and the soldiers' actions weren't wrong either; they were just incredibly unlucky.
After determining the cause of the illness, the regiment's doctors formed a team to enter the "isolation zone" to examine the patient's condition.
Because parasites are contagious and spread very quickly, Xie Jingchen decisively isolated the encampment to prevent the disease from spreading to the living quarters of the regimental staff.
Although the outbreak of disease in the regiment was somewhat alleviated by folk remedies, it was not over yet.
If this infectious disease were added on top of that, it could potentially cause many deaths.
The doctors from the regiment took simple protective measures when they entered the isolation area, but after they came out, they also showed signs of fever and were immediately isolated.
The divisional doctor arrived late at night, which conveniently provided an opportunity for the infected regimental doctor to observe and study the patient's condition.
Surprisingly and alarmingly, even though the doctors from the division took full protective measures before entering the ward, they were all infected when they woke up the next day.
Now no one dares to enter the ward anymore, and no one dares to go to the isolation area to find out what's going on.
The soldiers in the unit were almost unharmed during the previous outbreak of disease, but they never expected to stumble badly in this fierce parasitic epidemic.
After learning all the news, Xia Fanxing discovered through the spatial books that there was a disease called "snow scabies" in the cold northern regions that was very similar to this parasitic epidemic.
The book says that if it is not treated in time, it may eventually develop into lymphoma, which seriously endangers life and is almost like waiting to die.
So she decisively went to find Xie Jingchen; she couldn't stand by and watch the soldiers who defended the country's borders suffer such a devastating disaster.
"Comrade, please turn around!" An uninfected soldier, acting as a sentry, stopped Xia Fanxing, saying, "The area ahead is an isolation zone. For your health, please do not attempt to enter."
Xia Fanxing said with a clear and firm look in her eyes, "My name is Xia Fanxing. Please inform Commander Xie and tell him that I may have a solution and that I should go and take a look."
