Others are fleeing famine, but I am a salted fish

Perhaps it was because the ancients had never been exposed to Western medicine, or perhaps it was the right medicine for their symptoms, but about a cup of tea after the two little kids took the medicine, their high fever subsided. Lin Xiaoyue quietly took a thermometer to measure the two kids' temperature, and it had dropped to 38.3 degrees. She was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief.

Seeing that the two rascals were obviously not feeling so uncomfortable, Old Man Lin, Madam Miao and Lin Zhaodi finally put their minds at ease. Then they had some free time and were amazed at the brightly colored potion.

After working all night, even if Lin Xiaoyue was strong enough, she couldn't bear it anymore. She held the two little ones in her arms, curled up carefully, leaned on the edge of the mat, closed her eyes and took a nap.

As for the bloody smell rising from outside, she was too lazy to worry about it. God was so angry that he made up for the lack of rain in the past few months in one go.

The heavy rain seemed to hang a curtain of water between the sky and the earth, making everything blurry and unclear, and naturally also completely dispelling the bloody smell on the ground.

Lin Zhaodi sighed repeatedly at the elixir bestowed by the "gods". She turned around and found that her third sister was exhausted. She closed her eyes and fell asleep next to the fourth and fifth sisters.

He was covered in blood, his hair was disheveled, and his clothes, torn by the wolf's claws, were covered in mud and blood.

That’s right. Since we set out on the journey, we haven’t had a good rest or sleep. We have been running around looking for people, and we didn’t eat well. We were attacked by wolves in the middle of the night and we were still at the front.

Fortunately, the third sister was born with supernatural strength. After her last trip to the brink of life and death, she seemed to have more strength after returning. Otherwise, their whole family would be injured or weak, and God knows whether they can see the sun tomorrow.

Now he looks slovenly and disheveled, all for the sake of protecting his family.

Lin Zhaodi felt sorry for her sister, so she fetched some water to help Lin Xiaoyue clean from head to toe, then changed her into clean clothes and tucked her into bed. Even after all this trouble, she still couldn't wake Lin Xiaoyue up, which showed that she was really exhausted.

In fact, Lin Xiaoyue noticed when Lin Zhaodi approached her. Seeing that it was her second sister and that she had no ill will towards her, she ignored it and calmed down, falling into a deep sleep.

On the other side, Father Lin and Madam Miao felt sour when they saw this. It was because their parents failed to stand up that their daughter had to be tough and risk her life to earn a way out. Father Lin and Madam Miao felt deeply guilty about this, their lips trembled, and they couldn't say a word for a long time.

Seeing that Miao was about to cry again, Father Lin didn't say much, but patted his wife's hand and motioned for her to find some wine or something to wipe the bodies of the fourth and fifth children. The girls have been tired, and the couple can't do big things, but they can still take on the small task of taking care of the little ones.

In ancient times, people not only followed the doctor's orders and took medicine on time, but also knew some physical knowledge about using warm water or wine to reduce fever.

After her husband spoke, Miao seemed to be reassured, and she stood up and took the wooden basin to fetch water. Even Xiaocao, who was busy all the time with shaking hands, was persuaded by Old Man Lin to go to sleep first, so that she would not collapse from exhaustion and have to take care of one more person. At most, he would wake her up in the middle of the night if something happened.

After all the busy work, everyone was exhausted. Except for Old Man Lin who had to lie down and sleep during the day to recuperate, the others all fell into a deep sleep.

……

Until noon of the next day.

Lin Xiaoyue woke up after a good sleep, rubbed her sleepy eyes, and looked outside. It was as if God was venting his anger. The heavy rain kept pouring down. Not to mention that every inch of the previously dry and cracked land was soaked. If it didn't stop, the dry land would be turned into paddy fields.

After taking the medicine last night, Xiao Si and Xiao Wu broke out in a sweat. Now their fever has subsided, and they woke up early and walked around with their big watery eyes. They looked at their second and third sisters sleeping soundly beside them and opened their mouths to hug them, but Miao, who had been paying attention to them, quickly stopped them.

The two little rascals were eating the soft and fragrant white rice porridge cooked by Sister Xiaocao. They were deeply moved when they learned that their two sisters had protected them last night and prevented the wolf that attacked them at night from taking them away and eating them.

Seeing that the second and third sisters had dark circles under their eyes and were sleeping soundly, she knew that the older sisters must have exhausted themselves, so she covered her mouths and shook her heads like rattles, making sure not to wake up the older sisters so that they could have a good sleep.

Even though the two little brats knew about their sisters' heroic battle against a pack of wolves last night and wanted to see the wolf corpses scattered all over the ground, it was a pity that their illness had deteriorated rapidly. The two little guys were so weak in their hands and feet that they could only lean on Miao's arms and stretch their necks as much as possible to look outside the cave.

Unfortunately, the wind was strong and the rain was heavy, and the sky and the earth were shrouded in mist. Even if the two little kids stared their eyes out, they could only see a vast expanse of white outside the cave, and nothing else could be seen clearly.

In order to satisfy the two little kids' irrepressible curiosity, Xiaocao put on a straw raincoat, gritted his teeth and endured the fear of wild beasts, and trotted out on tiptoe to drag back the body of a wild wolf for the two little guys to see.

However, the strong wind and heavy rain outside were really scary. Just after going out and coming back, Xiaocao's mouth was filled with rain water. Even though he was wearing a straw raincoat, his lower body was still soaked by the rain.

……

After Lin Xiaoyue woke up, she checked the condition of the two little carrots, fed them medicine again to control the bacterial infection, and then put the medicine away.

The two little kids took the medicine obediently and did not resist as expected. Of course, a big part of the reason may be that modern Western medicine is brightly colored and tastes less bitter than traditional Chinese medicine. It tastes sweet and has a hint of fruit flavor, which is why it is quite popular among children.

After giving the little ones the medicine, let them continue to stay in bed to prevent them from catching a cold and worsening their condition.

The little rascals now adore their third sister so much that they act like fangirls to her. They listen obediently to whatever Lin Xiaoyue says without any reluctance at all.

Lin Xiaoyue sat next to the little guy, holding the bowl in one hand, drinking white rice porridge without stones, while looking at the more than 20 wolf corpses that were dragged in from the other side of the cave by Xiaocao and Lin Zhaodi and piled up like a small hill.

Everyone, including Old Man Lin, seemed to have overcome their fear of wild beasts overnight, and several people sat together to process the wolf meat.

Lin Xiaoyue had enough meat to eat, but she couldn't just take out the meat she had stored in her space in front of everyone. The heavy rain blocked the road, and it was unknown how long it would take for the wind and rain to stop and continue on the road. Everyone was bored and thought it would be better to store some meat to eat on the road later.

Lin Xiaoyue pursed her lips and said nothing. Although she guessed that these wolves had eaten countless dead people, she couldn't say it. It was not easy for everyone to overcome their fear of wolves. If they opened their mouths and barked, they would be scared to death.
