Chapter 148
"Zhinan."
The three people who were hurrying to meet Lin Zhinan saw her staggering from afar and were getting worried. Unexpectedly, Lin Zhinan, who was dragging two backpacks, actually fell to the ground.
The little monk threw his backpack to the ground and ran out.
"Sister, sister, what's wrong with you?" The little monk picked her up from the sand. Seeing the pale, sweaty Lin Zhinan, his heart was in turmoil. He turned around and shouted to Chu Huaiqin, "Brother, brother, sister is sick, sick."
Chu Huaiqin also threw his backpack on the ground and walked over quickly with Xia En's support. He placed his hand on Lin Zhinan's forehead, which was ice-cold. When he touched her hand again, it was burning hot. "It's heatstroke, call a doctor quickly."
"Brother, brother," Lin Zhinan was dizzy when Chu Huaiqin touched her, and she came back to her senses. Her brother really came to pick her up. For a moment, she felt wronged and tears fell. "Brother, brother, they bullied us. Brother Huaichen is out. Wuwu~, they are so mean..."
Chu Huaiqin took the person from the little monk's arms, wiped her tears, and comforted her: "It's okay, it's okay, brother will definitely avenge you, don't cry, let the doctor take a look."
"Brother, brother, brother Huaichen, I'm out, I'm out, wuwu~~" Lin Zhinan opened her mouth, breathing rapidly, her pale face covered with cold sweat. The little monk who was fanning her with his hands almost saw her rolling her eyes and was instantly scared, "Brother, brother, my sister rolled her eyes."
"Shut up, what are you talking about?" Chu Huaiqin scolded with a sharp tone, which scared the little monk so much that he held back his tears.
"Be good, don't cry. When you get better, we will bully them back together. We will bully them back the same way they bullied you and make them out of this game, okay?" Chu Huaiqin touched the sweat on her face and comforted her.
"Okay!" As Lin Zhinan said the word "Okay", her hand slipped and she fainted completely.
"Quick, get out of the way, bring her in!" the staff shouted. They were in a hurry, and the director's car was too stuffy to move someone suffering from heatstroke inside. So the staff took a large parasol and opened it, then used a large sheet of cloth to create a makeshift ward. They connected a fan for ventilation, and moved the drone and camera lenses away to film Chu Huaiqin and the others.
"Let me see how he is doing." The doctor pushed the little monk aside, used a stethoscope to check Lin Zhinan's heart and lungs, and said in a deep voice: "Move him in quickly."
Upon hearing this, Xia En immediately picked up the man and carried him into the makeshift tent.
Because of the worry about Lin Zhinan, the surroundings inexplicably became quiet.
Only the live broadcast room was boiling with activity. People who cared about Lin Zhinan were sweating with anxiety. They were worried that after Su Huaichen withdrew from the competition, Lin Zhinan would also be eliminated. Some were also worried that she would have health problems due to heatstroke. You know, heatstroke can also be fatal.
"Don't worry, drink some water." Xia En handed the kettle to Chu Huaiqin. Chu Huaiqin had been struggling to keep going yesterday and today, and his face was flushed now. Xia En was really afraid that something would happen to him too.
"It's okay." Chu Huaiqin pushed Xia En's hand away.
"No, you have to drink," Xia Entang said sternly. They didn't have much water left, so even though it was scorching hot today, with the temperature reaching a new high, Chu Huaiqin had been very frugal with his water. Now that he looked unwell, and still wanted to save water, Xia Entang refused to allow it. He stared at Chu Huaiqin intently, as if he would argue with him if he didn't drink.
Chu Huaiqin had no choice but to take it and take a sip. His sticky mouth finally felt much fresher. "We won't leave today. Let's rest!"
Chu Huaiqin looked at the time. It was 2:30 in the afternoon, and it was still a long time before dark. It was not comfortable to camp in such a hot and unprotected environment. However, Lin Zhinan's health was not suitable for continuing the journey.
"Okay," Xia Entang put down his backpack and said to the little monk, "You start setting up camp. I'll go look for water."
When they returned to Lin Zhinan, they found that the vegetation in this area was very rich, which meant that the soil moisture was better than other places, and there might be a water source.
"Okay, go ahead!" Because they really didn't have much water, and they were anxious to pick up Lin Zhinan, they hadn't been able to find water before. Now that they had found him, if they continued on their journey without a water source, they might all become dehydrated in such hot weather.
"I'll go look through Zhinan's backpack to see if the fan is there." After saying that, the little monk carried Lin Zhinan's two backpacks back to Chu Huaiqin and began to search.
Live broadcast room:
"I really want to tell him not to look for it anymore. This thing is not a good thing. It has caused Actor Su to be eliminated."
"Is this victim blaming? Are you a fan of the Rolling Team? What does it have to do with the fan and the soap? Those people are evil-minded, so don't make excuses for them."
"How could I possibly make excuses for the British Empire?"
"What you said before makes sense. I don't care if you're trying to excuse the British Empire, but that's what you said."
"That's right, that's right. We should be condemning the British Empire, not putting the blame on the victims."
Many people in the live broadcast room were outraged. Nowadays, many people use this to whitewash themselves after doing wrong things. Often, it is just a casual remark at the beginning, but in the end, it becomes the victim's fault.
The little monk didn't know that the live broadcast room was in turmoil because of his search for the fan, nor did he know that it was because of the fan and the soap that Su Huaichen was eliminated. After searching for a while, he found that there was no trace of the fan at all. He said to Chu Huaiqin in disappointment: "It seems that the fan has not been rescued."
Live broadcast room: No, it was rescued, but we don’t know where the two of them hid it.
Unable to find a fan, the young monk had no choice but to pitch the tent and let Chu Huaiqin inside to rest. Entering the tent was bearable with a fan, but without it, it felt like entering a furnace. Chu Huaiqin felt stuffy and hot after just a few minutes, and any further down he'd be in for a heat stroke. So he had to crawl out, grabbing a piece of clothing and balancing it on his trekking pole for shade.
Lin Zhinan woke up after being treated for about ten minutes. After the injection, she was much more awake. However, if she was put into Chu Huaiqin and his tent, she would probably faint again from the heat after just waking up here. But they couldn't keep Lin Zhinan in the program team's tent any longer, as that would be considered a violation, unless Lin Zhinan was announced to be out.
When the little monk heard what the program team said, he was angry and anxious. Chu Huaiqin also frowned and thought of a solution, but when he looked around, he couldn't find a single tree, only rare shrubs as high as his calves.
"I, I, I don't want to be eliminated. I can do it." Lin Zhinan was lying on the mobile bed, his face pale, begging.
"We have to be responsible for your health." The doctor did not give in at all.
"Brother, brother, I don't want to be eliminated." Lin Zhinan's lips were pale and peeling, and he looked several shades darker. He had just experienced Su Huaichen's elimination, and the look in his eyes was heartbreaking.
Chu Huaiqin was silent.
The little monk stamped his feet anxiously. Seeing Lin Zhinan's tearful face, his heart ached, but he couldn't bring himself to ask her to withdraw from the competition. But when Chu Huaiqin didn't say anything, he got angry again and ran to Chu Huaiqin and said, "Brother, brother, take my sister back to our tent. We can use the trekking poles to spread the tent over the tent and make another shelter. I will keep fanning Zhinan to keep her warm."
"We also have fans. Fans can ventilate the room." Lin Zhinan said weakly. Seeing Chu Huaiqin and the little monk looking exhausted, she knew how far these three had traveled to pick her up. If the little monk kept fanning her, he would get heatstroke.
"Ah, a fan?" The little monk was stunned. There was such a thing? He asked in confusion, "Have I looked for it?"
"They kept bullying us because of the fan and the soap, so I discussed with Brother Huaichen and wrapped it in cloth and secretly stuffed it under the director's car in the middle of the night." Lin Zhinan thought of Su Huaichen's elimination and felt sad again.
Many staff members in the studio and on the scene were shocked. Why didn't they know? Their eyes turned to the staff on duty during the two nights. They must have known, but they just didn't say it. Maybe Anthony knew too!
A fan would be easy, so the monk ran to find a fan and soap based on the vehicle information provided by Lin Zhinan. Chu Huaiqin went to the doctor to ask what the injections and medicines given to Lin Zhinan were made of, and also asked if the medicine he brought with him could be used by Lin Zhinan.
Chu Huaiqin was chattering with the director team, while the audience in the live broadcast room started talking about it.
"What does Chu mean? The medicine he brought is better than the doctor's?"
"I heard that China always has some strange and bizarre medicines. Chu won't believe it!"
Chinese audience: ...
"Thank you, Chinese medicine is not strange at all. It has been passed down for five thousand years, so it's really good!"
"That's right. The reason why we're being attacked now is mostly due to the mischief caused by some half-baked pharmacists."
"That's it. Well, this is something that only time can tell."
"Now I still believe that the West is responsible for the outside, and the Central Plains is responsible for the inside."
"This story has to start with Cao Cao."
"Pfft, Cao Cao is really pitiful. He is always the one who gets nominated in the debate between Chinese and Western medicine."
"Haha, let's not say these words, but I guess what my brother took out must be Huoxiang oral liquid."
"Same as above. As long as the heatstroke isn't too severe, this stuff is a panacea for it."
The live broadcast room was speculating, and after Chu Huaiqin finished talking to the doctor, Chu Huaiqin took out the Huoxiang oral liquid from Su Huaichen's backpack. In an instant, the live broadcast room burst into laughter. It turned out to be this thing!
Chu Huaiqin gave Lin Zhinan the correct dosage. The monk returned soon after, but they didn't immediately return to their tent. Instead, they turned on two fans inside to cool the tent and clear the air. The monk then gathered dry grass, branches, and leaves from nearby plants and spread them on the ground, then moved the tent onto it. This way, the tent was separated from the ground by a layer, and with the fans constantly spinning, it actually cooled down considerably.
Lin Zhinan was moved into the tent and slept on one side. Chu Huaiqin also went in and sat beside him. The little monk ran to find Xia En. Water source was very important to them now.
Ten minutes later, Lin Zhinan's complexion began to recover a little. He looked less pale and in much better spirits. For a moment, everyone in the live broadcast room didn't know whose medicine had taken effect.
The author has something to say: Attention, attention: If you have heatstroke, go to the hospital. Huoxiang Oral Liquid is fictional, fictional.
