Chapter 549: Village Treatment
"Cough cough cough! Fatty, hurry up, cough cough cough, get Miss Lin a clean face towel to wear, cough cough cough cough cough! If Miss Lin is also infected with the disease, I would rather she not treat us!"
Fatty's mother first bent over and coughed violently for a while, then pulled her arm out of Lin Xi's hand, stepped aside with her face covered by a towel, and then quickly spoke to Fatty.
Halfway through his speech, he started coughing violently again.
When Pang Ya saw that her mother was coughing uncomfortably, she hurried forward and gently patted her back.
"Auntie, don't worry. Since I dared to come in without a face towel, I am sure I will not be infected with the disease. You and Fatty go sit aside and rest for a while. I will treat Fatty's grandmother first, otherwise she will not be able to hold on for much longer."
Seeing the old man lying on the bed, skin and bones, unconscious, with more breathing out than breathing in, Lin Xi reached into his cuff, took out the silver needle, and said to Fatty's mother.
After hearing what Lin Xi said, Pang Ya's mother looked at her mother-in-law who had been lying on the bed unconscious for a long time. She did not dare to delay any longer, and quickly stepped aside with the help of Pang Ya to make room for Lin Xi.
Lin Xi sat down beside the bed and inserted a short silver needle diagonally into Grandma Pang Ya's lung acupoint. A tiny trace of spiritual power began to flow through Grandma Pang Ya's body. Her physical condition was so bad that treatment had to be done very carefully. Lin Xi frowned and focused all his attention on the spiritual power flowing through Grandma Pang Ya's body, controlling the spiritual power to carefully repair her body.
Seeing this, Pang Ya and her mother sat on the stools, not daring to make a sound to disturb them.
A quarter of an hour later, Lin Xi pulled the silver needle out of Grandma Pangya's body, looked at Pangya's mother and said with a smile: "Aunt, I think your symptoms are quite serious. I will give you acupuncture to relieve them first. After the people I bring make the medicine, you can drink it and slowly recuperate."
When Fatty Yaniang saw that her mother-in-law's face lying on the bed had gradually turned from sallow to rosy and her breathing had become even, she was delighted and obediently lay down on the other bed in the room, thanking Lin Xi repeatedly.
"Don't be polite, Auntie. Don't move once I start giving you the acupuncture."
Lin Xi looked at Fatty's mother lying on the bed and gently warned her. After she nodded, he looked at the closed window and said to Fatty, "Pangya, open all the windows in the room to let in fresh air. Then go out and call those with serious symptoms over. I will give them acupuncture."
"Okay, I'll go right away!"
Fatty nodded repeatedly, opened the window swiftly, and walked out of the room.
In the courtyard, Bai Ji had already led his tribesmen to treat the women and girls infected with the disease. They asked those who were not infected to move out of the ancestral hall. When Pang Ya came out, Bai Ji had just finished treating Ying Xiang. He waved at her and said, "Come here, little girl. This girl said you are not infected. Let me take a look at you. If you are sure that you are not infected, leave here immediately and live in another courtyard, farther away from here."
"But I still have to take care of my mother and my grandmother, as well as those aunts who don't have children!"
Fatty looked at Baiji hesitantly and said.
"Just leave these patients to us to take care of. If one less person is infected, we can have more energy to treat these people."
Baizhi's wife walked to the casserole with firewood in her arms and advised Pangya.
"Okay, I'll pack up and leave now. Thank you all for coming to treat us. Yingxiang, Miss Lin asked the villagers with more serious symptoms to go to that room. She will give everyone acupuncture."
Pang Ya first bowed to Bai Zhi's wife and Bai Ji with a look of gratitude, and then told Ying Xiang about Lin Xi's instructions.
Upon hearing this, Yingxiang nodded to Pang Ya and told her to leave quickly. Then she supported a woman who was sitting against the wall and coughing, and walked towards the room where Lin Xi was.
"Don't take anything from this yard. Just in case, we brought a lot of bedding, clothes, food, oil, salt, etc. They are in the house at the entrance of the village. You and the people who just moved out can go and get them. Change the clothes you are wearing and burn them when you go back."
When Bai Ji saw Pang Ya was about to pack her things, he quickly stopped her.
Lin Xi was very thoughtful. After entering the village, he took out a large number of daily necessities from the boundary bead and filled the yard with them.
Fatty knelt down and kowtowed to Baiji in gratitude, wiped her eyes, glanced at the side room, then looked at Baizhi's wife who was holding firewood to prepare medicine, then turned around and ran out without looking back.
She had to change her clothes quickly, clear out a habitable room in her yard, and then go up the mountain to chop firewood with a few friends who were not infected. A lot of firewood would definitely be needed to boil the medicine.
"Fat girl, you're here. This dress suits you. Change into it quickly. Take off your clothes and we'll burn them together."
When Pang Ya arrived at the yard near the village entrance, several girls had just changed their clothes. They had already taken out some of the daily necessities they needed and prepared some for Pang Ya. When they saw her coming, they hurriedly urged her to change her clothes.
Pang Ya took the clothes, ran into the house and changed them quickly.
Several girls burned their clothes. Fatty, who was about to go back to her own home, looked at the things in the yard and discussed with her friends: "Why don't we clean up this yard and live here? This house is OK and can be lived in. We can just watch over these things."
The girls who were preparing to leave with their belongings thought about it, listened to Pang Ya's advice, put down their belongings, and started to work quickly. They first boiled water and cleaned up several rooms, then left one person to look after the house while the others took axes and went up the mountain to chop firewood.
"We were just about to go out to find firewood, but we didn't expect you to bring it here. You kids are really capable. Put the firewood here, and don't go into the yard. This firewood is enough for today. Go back and have a rest, and don't get sick from exhaustion. This is the pill that the master asked me to give you. It has the effect of strengthening the body and can effectively prevent infection with the epidemic. She was busy treating someone just now and forgot to give it to you."
Bai Zhi's wife walked out of the ancestral hall with a few other wives and saw Pang Ya and a few others who had come to deliver firewood. She smiled and asked them to put the firewood on their backs on the ground. She then took out a few porcelain bottles from her arms and gave them to Pang Ya, urging them to rest.
"Thank you, Auntie. Sorry for bothering you!"
Pang Ya and the other girls looked at Bai Zhi and the other daughters-in-law with gratitude and thanked them sincerely.
Then they took the medicine given to them by Baizhi's wife, left the ancestral hall, and returned to the yard at the entrance of the village to eat and rest. They wanted to recover their strength so that they could continue to go up the mountain to chop wood tomorrow.
By midnight, Lin Xi used her spiritual power to treat all those infected with the disease, because she found that these women's bodies were too weak due to the disease, and if they relied solely on medicine, their recovery would be too slow.
