Chapter 38: It Seems to Be Poison
Gu Li was stunned, but she didn't stop her movements, she helped the little girl sit up from the ground.
Someone in the crowd recognized her and advised: "Divine doctor girl, she is infected with the plague, you leave her alone!" ”
"Yes, let's beat her to death or throw her out of the city, but don't let her harm more people!"
Many people agreed.
"I'm a doctor, I can't see death without help."
She actually wanted to ask these people, how did they do so cold-blooded? But time was short, and she really didn't have time to deal with them.
Gu Li asked the little girl again: "Can you still go?" ”
The ragged little girl's face flushed unusually, and she tried to get up, but she was about to get up when she fell to the ground again.
Seeing this, Gu Li ignored everyone's dissuasion, directly carried her on her back and rushed towards the Immortal Grass Hall.
As soon as she entered the door, she called Dr. Qin and asked him to hurry up and prepare the hospital bed and medicine.
The little girl was put on the hospital bed, and Dr. Qin said to her while wearing a mask and gloves, "You hurry up and change your clothes and disinfect them." ”
Gu Li didn't dare to be careless, so she answered and went out. If you want to save people, you must first protect yourself.
When she went over again, Doctor Qin had already finished checking the little girl's pulse.
"It's a plague." He said as he applied the needle.
Gu Li stood beside her with a gloomy face, looking at the little girl lying on the bed, her face flushed. Unexpectedly, she was also infected with the plague.
The little girl was tormented by high fever and agony, and she looked at Gu Li with a pair of bloodshot eyes, her eyes full of tears and fear.
"Sister." She suddenly called out to her.
"Don't be afraid, my sister will cure you." She leaned closer and comforted her.
But she didn't have much confidence in what she said, the probability that this disease could be cured was only about four or five percent, and she didn't know if she could survive it.
After Dr. Qin finished administering the needle to her, he said to Gu Li with a solemn expression, "You come with me." ”
Gu Li comforted the little girl twice and went out with him.
"What's wrong?" She wondered in her heart, could there be something wrong with this little girl's illness?
"She seems to have taken poison." Doctor Qin looked at Gu Li and said.
Gu Li was stunned, poison?
"The last time I saw her, she was begging in the street, maybe she had taken some poison by mistake. Is this poison easy to solve? ”
Doctor Qin nodded, thinking that since he was a beggar, maybe he had ingested the poison by mistake.
"It's okay, it's not that hard." He replied.
Gu Li was relieved and went to the ward again.
"Sister, am I going to die?" The little girl looked at her and asked, her black and white eyes filled with sadness and fear.
Gu Li's heart ached, smiled at her, and comforted: "No, you can sleep well, just wake up." ”
But the little girl refused to sleep, still staring at her, taking her as the straw of her life.
Seeing her like this, Gu Li talked to her to divert her attention.
"What's your name?"
"My name is Golden Branch."
"What a nice name! Who named you? ”
"My mother."
Gu Li asked tentatively again: "What about your mother?" ”
"Dead." Her voice trembled, as if she was about to cry.
"My mother is dead, my father is dead, my brothers and sisters are all dead, and they are all drowned." Tears rolled down her still childish little face.
Gu Li's heart was uncomfortable, and she wanted to comfort her, but she didn't know what to say. She was so young, and she had lost all her relatives overnight, and any words of consolation seemed so pale compared to her grief.
The golden branch burned more and more seriously, and after a while, the whole person became confused.
Gu Li would go to see her every once in a while, she had done all the medicine she needed and the methods she should think of, and then she could only rely on herself.
In addition to Jin Zhi, Gu Li was also thinking about Yan Qing. It's been a few days since he's gone, has he arrived in Liangcheng? Now it's so messy outside, is he okay?
At this time, it was late at night, Yan Qing stood quietly on the desolate mountain outside Liangcheng, looking at the vast land in front of him, and the Gaochang generals who came quietly in the night.
Under the cover of night, they wrapped the horses' hooves in cotton cloth without making the slightest sound, and then they came to the gate of Liangcheng out of nowhere. At this moment, whether the soldiers defending Liangcheng found out or not, it was already too late. Next, a battle to seize the city is bound to unfold vigorously.
After tonight, Liangcheng is afraid that it will no longer belong to Nanyun Kingdom.
Yan Qing smiled slightly, turned to leave, and did not wait for the battle to begin.
The next day, Gu Li went to the Immortal Grass Hall early. Yan Qing was not at home, and no one cooked for her anymore, so she ate all three meals in the fairy grass hall.
After breakfast, she went to the ward to see the golden branch. Jin Zhi has not yet subsided in fever, and in the past few days, he has been sleeping when he wakes up, and he can't eat anything.
Seeing her like this, Gu Li was anxious, but there was really no other way but to hope that she would get better as soon as possible.
Under her hope, on the fourth day, the fever began to subside.
Gu Li was overjoyed, and the fever subsided, indicating that the condition had been controlled, and it would be better if she continued treatment for a few more days.
After the fever subsided, Jin Zhi's spirit improved a lot, he was no longer drowsy, and he was able to eat.
"Sister, thank you for curing my illness, I thought I was going to die too." She looked at her and said, her black and white eyes filled with joy and gratitude.
But then, the expression on her face fell lonely again: "However, I don't have any money." ”
The sister kindly saved her, but she didn't have the money to pay for her consultation.
Gu Li smiled at her: "I don't want your money, as long as you can get better, I'll be happy." ”
Jin Zhi frowned and was silent for a moment, then suddenly looked at her and said, "Sister, if I don't work for you, I will do anything." ”
Gu Li didn't agree immediately, but comforted her again and asked her to recuperate.
Jin Zhi is only twelve years old this year, a little young, and there is nothing on her side that needs her help.
However, Jin Zhi insisted: "My mother said that if you receive favors, you must repay them, and you can't be helped in vain." ”
Gu Li looked at her, pondered for a moment, and suddenly asked her, "Are you afraid of blood?" ”
Jin Zhi blinked, not knowing why she was asking her this question.
"I'm afraid." She answered truthfully.
Gu Li laughed: "Then you should practice your courage next, don't be afraid of blood." When you're done, I've got a big favor for you. ”
"Hmm." Jin Zhi nodded hurriedly and happily agreed.
She didn't know what the big favor she was asking her to do was yet, but she would try to do it. Her father and brother and sister are dead, she has nowhere to go, and she wants to stay with this kind sister.
