Chapter 37: A Good Man Is Me
I used the tinder I brought with me to light a new fire to keep the fire going.
Then under a big tree, on the back of the sea, I made four stakes against the big tree and built a very simple small thatched hut.
The roof is covered with a thick layer of thatch, there is a big tree screen, the general wind and rain, has not been afraid, in addition to the shade of the tree is good to enjoy the shade, and is not afraid of the hot sun during the day.
I made the grass bed, and then carried Tian Xiaxia into this thatched hut that leaked on all sides, and let her lie here to recuperate.
We didn't have much fresh water left, so we only brought eight bottles to be replenished on the way. In this tropical jungle, I don't have to worry about finding water at all.
I walked a few steps up the edge of the forest, and when I heard the faint sound of gurgling water, I knew that there was a river nearby. So I took a few empty bottles of mineral water and prepared to fill them all.
It was a small river half a meter wide.
The water of the river is clear, and on both sides of the river, there are many river plants.
This kind of living water can be drunk directly, of course, it is the best to boil it, and it is not a big problem to drink it directly, at most it has diarrhea and diarrhea, and it can't kill people.
I lay on the shore and put my head in the water, and the cow drank before I began to fill the water.
Looking at the verdant and fertile plants on both sides of the river, I suddenly had the idea that by walking along the riverbank, I should find some herbs I need.
So I tried to look around, but I was disappointed, there were many plants I didn't know, but I couldn't find what I wanted for a while.
Then let's find another time.
I'm afraid that if I come out for a long time, Tian Xiaxia will be worried, and her condition is still unstable, and there is a possibility of recurrence of acute symptoms, so I held a few bottles of water and went back suddenly.
After noon, Tian Xiaxia really started to burn, and it was still hot, and his forehead was as hot as coals.
I boiled two irrigations of water and gave her a drink. He also wiped her body with cold water to cool her down.
Tian Xiaxia faced a man like me, and he was always a little unable to let go. But under the importance of my knowledge, after considering who is more important in life or face, I finally obediently let me wipe it.
I didn't have any cloth on my hands, so I directly soaked Tian Xiaxia's white silk underwear as a towel. was wiped by a man with his underwear, and Tian Xiaxia blushed for a long time.
In the afternoon, I picked up enough dry firewood, and saw that Tian Xiaxia was still in good spirits, so I said to her: "I want to make up for sleep, I have to keep a vigil for you all night, and if your condition can stabilize tomorrow, I am going to go out and find you some snake wound herbs." You can rest alone, I will sleep next to you, if there is anything, remember to wake me up. ”
Tian Xiaxia nodded: "Then you can sleep." It's really tiring for you to take care of me. ”
I lay down on the grass bed and fell asleep. My ability to sleep is estimated to surprise Tian Xiaxia for a long time.
I slept quite well this night, and when I woke up, it was already nine o'clock in the evening. Tian Xiaxia didn't call me, I woke up naturally.
Tian Xiaxia was lying beside me, holding up her spirits.
I rubbed my eyes and said, "I'm sorry, I've slept for a long time." Are you sleepy, eat something and go to sleep, right?"
Tian Xiaxia shook her head and said that she was not sleepy, but her tired face betrayed her.
I touched her forehead, it was still very hot, it seemed that under the effect of the virus, it was impossible to think that it would cool down for a while and a half.
I boiled two more boiling waters, and let them cool for her to drink. Cut two coconuts and gave them to eat. Then he coaxed her to sleep and said, "Go to sleep, don't hold on, I forgot, you haven't slept well for two days and one night, and you need enough sleep when you're sick." ”
When she was fully asleep and breathing calmly, I got some barbecue for myself.
This night, I still checked Tian Xiaxia's snort and pulse every half an hour to diagnose her condition.
The good thing is that everything is in the normal range.
At dawn the next day, Tian Xiaxia was still asleep, so I went to the side and folded a handful of leafy branches.
When I came back, Tian Xiaxia had already sat up by herself, and I said, "Wake up?" I handed her the cold boiled water that had been prepared on the side a long time ago, and wanted to hand her to drink.
Tian Xiaxia didn't answer, and said, "Don't do it first, I'll relieve you first, I let you pour so much boiling water yesterday, my stomach is so swollen." ”
The wound on her buttocks had already scabbed over at this time, and she didn't need my help, so she limped outside.
When she came back, I observed her complexion and felt fine, except for the high fever.
In fact, fever itself is not a disease, but only a symptom. It is a physiological response mechanism of the body to fight the invasion of viruses and germs and resist infection, which is beneficial to the human body. Of course, it is not good to burn too high, in order to fight the virus, it is not worth the loss to raise the temperature to burn the tissues and organs.
Tian Xiaxia's current situation is like this, the snake venom is destroying her body, allowing her body's immune system to regulate the temperature to fight, when can the fever subside, the main thing is when these toxins can be removed by her body.
I asked Tian Xiaxia to eat something and asked her, "How are you feeling now?"
Tian Xiaxia hesitated and replied: "It's okay, it's just that I have a fever and my head is very dizzy." There was also some pain in my body. ”
I said, "In this case, I see that you can hold on, so I'll go out and find herbs for you." You can rest here alone. ”
Tian Xiaxia nodded: "You can go with confidence, I can take care of myself." Be careful yourself. ”
I put the handful of raw branches beside her and said, "I'll go out, I'll probably go a little far, but I'll be back in time for noon." If you encounter any situation, suddenly feel uncomfortable or something, you put this raw branch on the fire and burn it, which will produce a very thick smoke, no matter how far away I am, I can see this signal, and I will immediately rush back to save you, remember!
Tian Xiaxia just nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, don't worry." That's how you want something to happen to me. ”
I said, "Just in case, it's better to be prepared than nothing." I'm doing this for your good!"
Tian Xia Xia smiled sweetly: "Okay, I know that you are a considerate and good man." ”
I thought to myself, yes, it turns out that I actually have the temperament of a good man? In the past, in order to be able to find a girlfriend, I have been thinking about how to be a good man, and I have been thinking about how to be a good man, and I have already done it.
Then I took a sailor's knife and went back to the river, and began to trace the river upstream, looking for what I needed.
Along the way, I was thinking about what medicine I should give Tian Xiaxia.
It clears away heat and reduces fever, detoxifies and detoxifies, and is taken internally and externally.
I've thought about all of these in my heart, but I still have to take what I want to do, and I can use whatever I can find.
