"Dr. Kobayashi, how are the villagers?"
When Lin Yinan came down, Dr. Lin had already finished his consultation and was writing a prescription.
Dr. Kobayashi said slowly, "It's alright. Most of the villagers caught a cold after being caught in the rain. Symptoms such as chills, fever, weakness, headache, and runny nose are normal. They will recover after taking two doses of medicine."
"However, several younger children have already experienced febrile seizures, and whether they will recover depends on fate."
No sooner had Dr. Kobayashi finished speaking than a woman's terrified scream came from the other tent.
"Xiao Bao! Xiao Bao! Wake up! Don't scare your mother! How are you?"
Upon hearing this, Dr. Kobayashi shook his head helplessly, "I'm afraid this child won't make it."
"I'll go take a look!"
Thinking of the soft and adorable Yun Shijiu, Lin Yinan felt a pang of guilt and got up to leave.
Inside the tent, a disheveled young woman sat on a large communal bed, holding a four- or five-year-old child in her arms. The child's face was flushed, and he was sobbing in his mother's arms.
Oh no, it's a febrile seizure!
Lin Yinan rushed forward, "Quickly put him down!"
The woman's eyes were red and her face was covered in tears and snot. She saw Lin Yinan kneeling down like a madman, not kowtowing, but hitting his head on the communal bed with a loud thud.
"Lord of the City, please save my child!"
Seeing that she wouldn't listen and that the child was in imminent danger, Lin Yinan shouted sternly, "Put him down right now!"
The woman froze for a second, then hurriedly placed the child on the large communal bed and stepped aside.
"Please save him, he's only five years old!" the woman pleaded in a hoarse voice, tears streaming silently down her face.
Lin Yinan hurriedly pulled off the blanket and clothes covering the child, turned his head to one side, and seeing that he did not vomit, she took out the fever reducer for the child from her space, poured out the correct amount, and pried open the child's mouth to force it down his throat.
After observing for a while, it was good that the child didn't spit out the medicine.
Lin Yinan found another fever-reducing patch in her online space and stuck it on the child's forehead.
After the child took the medicine, the shaking gradually stopped and the child calmed down, indicating that the medicine was working.
"Go quickly and fetch a basin of warm water, and find me a cloth." She said without looking up, keeping an eye on the child.
A woman quickly brought water, and Lin Yinan said to the child's mother, "Now start wiping the child's armpits, chest, abdomen, and limbs."
The child's mother quickly wiped her face with her sleeve, took the cloth, and carefully and gently wiped the child's face.
Dr. Kobayashi came in after writing the prescription and saw that the child was better than before, but he took the pulse himself, and the woman quickly stepped aside.
"Hmm, there are signs of improvement."
After saying that, he opened his medicine box, took out silver needles, and inserted them into several acupoints on the child's body, releasing some blood.
"The child has stopped convulsing; try giving him some water."
The child's father hurriedly brought water, which the woman took and, mimicking how Lin Yinan had fed the medicine earlier, slowly fed the child water.
Fifteen minutes later, the child started sweating.
The child's mother looked at Lin Yinan excitedly, "The child is sweating!"
"Give him more water, and when he wakes up, give him some rice porridge," Lin Yinan said.
Dr. Kobayashi wrote a prescription for the woman, saying, "Take this prescription and have Zhou Wang go up the mountain to get the medicine later."
The woman and her husband hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, "Thank you, Lord City Lord! Thank you, Doctor!"
"Get up and take good care of the child." A parent's heart is always full of love and concern. She said gently.
Before leaving, Lin Yinan took out a thermometer to check the child's temperature. Soon, the fever had dropped to 39 degrees Celsius, the breathing was much more stable, and the child was slowly getting better.
Immediately afterwards, Lin Yinan walked around the camp and gave fever-reducing medicine to several people with high fevers, which saved their lives.
They were very satisfied with the tents set up by the villagers.
She told Zhou Wang, "During this period, you must remind the villagers that the water must be boiled before drinking. Raw water contains various bacteria, and drinking it can easily cause ginger fever."
"Yes, Your Majesty, I will obey your orders."
After a short period of contact, Zhou Wang was filled with admiration for this female city lord.
After leaving the camp, Lin Yinan led the Qianxia sisters down the mountain to check the water situation.
One night after a torrential downpour, the water in Dongwang Village had reached thigh-deep, and the villagers' houses were all submerged.
The village consists of mud-brick and thatched houses, which will probably be uninhabitable after being flooded.
Moreover, the village is built in a valley, where drainage is prone to flooding, so it seems that this place is not very suitable for living.
"Huh? The rain seems to be getting lighter." Qianwu murmured, gazing at the distant mountains.
Only after she reminded him did Lin Yinan realize that the rain had indeed lessened.
Looking at the village submerged in water, Qianxia said, "I wonder when the water in this village will recede?"
"I wonder how the other villages in Longtan County are doing?" This was what Lin Yinan was worried about.
"Don't worry, Madam! Yunyu and the others have sent back news that only a few villages have been affected by the disaster."
Yun Er's voice came from behind.
After going up the mountain yesterday, he took another route down to return to Longtan County.
"It seems this village will need to be rebuilt. I'll have to trouble you to send your guards to Longtan again to ask Su Kunliang for someone to come over." Lin Yinan already had a plan in mind.
Who do you want?
"Su Kaifa".
"I'll arrange it right away."
Yun Er handed her a letter, then left again.
Lin Yinan opened the letter, written to her by Lin Yiheng to put her mind at ease. The letter simply said that everything was fine in Longtan and that she should not worry.
After putting away the letter, Lin Yinan led Qianxia and Qianwu to the other side of the mountain.
"Let's go take a look over there."
The further you go in, the denser the woods and thorns become, making it almost impossible to walk.
