Quick Wear: True and False Life

I followed Qiao Baobao's convoy all the way, stopping and starting, and gradually became familiar with them.

"It's going to rain this afternoon, so I plan to stay in the cave here. I suggest you take a rest and leave tomorrow." Wei Nan proposed to Qiao Baobao after lunch that day.

"But it's such nice weather, it doesn't look like it's going to rain. I have to hurry." Baby Qiao said hesitantly.

"Okay then! Be careful on the road." Wei Nan just reminded dutifully that it was up to Qiao Baobao whether to adopt the idea or not.

Here, Qiao Baobao returned to the carriage, still very hesitant, so she talked about this matter with Uncle Qin. She was a little undecided.

Uncle Qin looked around and thought it was unlikely to rain. He wondered if Miss Wei had made a mistake, so he said to Qiao Baobao, "We are in a hurry and can't slow down any further, otherwise Miss will suffer again when she returns."

Just like that, after Qiao Baobao's convoy finished their lunch, they began to pack up. After a cup of tea, they set off again.

Wei Nan watched them walk away, then called Lingxi and the others to look for the best cave nearby to shelter from the rain.

Lingxi quickly ran around the area and found a large cave on the mountainside that was big enough for even a carriage to enter. There was also a relatively flat area deep in the cave that was perfect for taking shelter from the rain.

After finding a suitable place, Wei Nan led everyone to drive the carriage up, unload the carriage, and let Talang graze nearby.

She went to the woods with the two children to collect firewood, and then put them into bundles in the space. Then she started hunting and gathering, hunting and gathering whatever she saw, until she saw that the rain was about to come, she immediately flew back to the cave. Back in the cave, Wei Nan transferred all the harvest of the day from the space and put it on the open space, and then first piled the firewood near the cave entrance, so as to prevent wind and prying eyes.

"Sister, let me do it." Lingxi understood Wei Nan's meaning and said.

When Lingxi waved his hand for the first time, a stone wall appeared between the firewood and the inside of the cave. In this way, except that the light inside was much weaker, the desired goal was achieved. It was great!

As for the dim light inside, once the fire is lit the light will naturally become brighter and it will be easy to read then.

"Lingxi is really amazing." Seeing that Lingxi did a good job, Wei Nan praised her generously.

"Sister, sister, I can do it too." Bai Xi saw Wei Nan praising Ling Xi, turned his head to look around, saw the prey on the ground, and hurriedly said.

Bai Xi cast a few spells, and the animals were cleaned up and hung on the stone wall. The wild vegetables were also washed and put into the bamboo basket. After finishing, he looked at Wei Nan very eagerly.

"Bai Xi, you actually learned how to process food ingredients. That's great." Wei Nan praised Bai Xi sincerely seeing how enthusiastic he was.

Bai Xi was not happy for long, as there was a sudden "boom" from the space above their heads, and then heavy rain began to fall from the dark sky, and the rain came quickly.

"Sister, it's raining so heavily!" Bai Xi looked at the rain curtain.

"Today's rain will last a little long, about two hours, but it will stop in the evening. It will rain continuously for the next three days." Wei Nan looked outside the cave and talked about the length of the rain indifferently.

"Sister, will there be a flood?" Lingxi thought a little more deeply and said.

"Who knows? Just take care of yourself now. There's no point in thinking so much." Wei Nan replied in a faint voice.

Qiao Baobao and his group did not expect that it would start to rain heavily after they had only walked for half an hour. Now there was no suitable place to shelter from the rain on either side of the road, so they had to move forward in the rain.

Nearly an hour later, they arrived at the post station. As there were many people seeking shelter from the rain, they only had three rooms to occupy. There was not even hot water. After changing their clothes, they could only get half a bowl of ginger soup each.

"Miss, you are weak. Drink the ginger soup quickly to avoid accidents." The maid served Qiao Baobao ginger soup.

However, things did not go as planned. The next day, half of their team members fell ill, including Qiao Baobao. The disease was very severe and there was a lack of medicine. She had a fever all the time. When she was conscious, she regretted very much that she did not listen to Wei Nan's advice yesterday at noon.

"Xiaolan, has Uncle Qin called a doctor?" Baby Qiao asked listlessly, leaning against the head of the bed.

"Miss, this place is far from the village, and the only doctor has been requisitioned by an adult and has not returned yet." After Xiaolan answered, she carefully changed the handkerchief on Qiao Baobao's forehead.

"Is it still raining outside?"

"Yes, it never stops."

After listening to Xiaolan's words, Qiao Baobao became dazed. She didn't know when she would get better. She kept having a fever. She was afraid that she would die of the fever. She was very worried and her condition was getting worse. The fever came and went intermittently. On the morning of the third day, she was almost unconscious.

"Doctor, how is my lady?" Xiaolan asked quickly after the doctor finished taking her pulse.

"Young lady's illness is quite serious, and I, as an old man, am powerless to treat her. Let me prescribe a fever-reducing prescription for you, and then it depends on your luck." The doctor put away his things and shook his head. The young lady had delayed treatment for too long, and her physical condition was poor, so how could she withstand such abuse.

"Uncle Qin, what should we do?" After sending the doctor away, Xiaolan asked Uncle Qin crying.

"I'll go get the medicine first and try to reduce the young lady's fever. Don't cry. Now is not the time to cry." Uncle Qin comforted Xiaolan.

Uncle Qin was extremely regretful at this moment. If anything happened to the young lady, he would not live any longer. He comforted others, but no one comforted him. He felt as if he had been scratched by a cat and was very uneasy.

Fortunately, the doctor was quite reliable. After taking antipyretics, the fever finally subsided on the fourth day and Baby Qiao woke up. Unfortunately, his body was injured.

After the old doctor finished the diagnosis, he wrote a prescription for nursing the baby, which clearly meant that Baby Qiao would have to rely on medicine to survive in the future.

Wei Nan stayed in the cave for a few days after the rain, and set out again after the road was dry. He stopped and walked, and met Qiao Baobao and his group again on the third day. When they met again, Qiao Baobao was almost exhausted and sat in the car leaning against Xiaolan.

"Uncle Qin, nice to meet you again." When Wei Nan's carriage approached, he got out and greeted Uncle Qin.

"Miss Wei," Uncle Qin called out when he saw Wei Nan's mixed mood.

When Qiao Baobao heard the voice, she knew it was Wei Nan, so she asked Xiaolan to open the car curtain. She wanted to talk to someone, and Wei Nan was a good person to talk to.

"Sister Wei, I'm so lucky to meet you again. It's really fate." Qiao Baobao looked at Wei Nan and said.

Although she was sick, she was happy to see Wei Nan. It was a bit like meeting an old friend again. She had struggled between life and death, and seeing her made her feel closer.

"Sister Qiao, you don't look well. Do you want me to take your pulse?" Wei Nan asked casually.

Uncle Qin's heart jumped out of his chest when he heard Wei Nan's words. He knew at this moment that this Miss Wei was not an ordinary person. Ordinary people could not predict the weather so accurately, and what they said always had substance. Asking this question meant that she knew medical skills.

"Miss, let's let Miss Wei take a look!" Uncle Qin said preemptively, fearing that the young lady would refuse.
