Transmigrated into a rare female in the beast world, she was forced to love
Chapter 108 Malaria
That day, Su Qianqian packed up the last batch of dried raisins and raspberries and put them into a storage bag.
The weather in the Beast World is hot, and these dried fruits need to be stored in a cool and ventilated place, and her storage bag is just right.
After cleaning up, Su Qianqian took out some dried raspberries, found a clean leaf to wrap them up, and prepared to give some to Gillian to try.
As soon as she came out of the cave, a wave of heat blew on her face, as if she was in the Flaming Mountain, and she was sweating all over.
Su Qianqian quickly retreated into the cave and took two gulps of cold water.
It's only been two days, how come it suddenly got so hot?!
She subconsciously looked up at the sky outside the cave. The sky was clear and cloudless, and the sun was hanging brightly in the sky. The scorching sunlight made it difficult to look directly at it.
Su Qianqian took a quick look and quickly looked away. The weather was too hot and the hot season was probably coming soon.
She found a leaf in the cave and held it above her head before walking out of the cave again.
The exposed calves were scorched by the scorching sun, and even the breath they exhaled was hot.
Su Qianqian quickened her pace and ran towards the cave where Gillian was.
Along the way, she saw many orcs heading towards the river next to the tribe. They probably couldn't stand the scorching weather.
After a while, Su Qianqian arrived outside the cave where Gillian lived.
She called out twice: "Ah Jiao? Are you home?"
No one answered inside.
Isn't she at home?
Su Qianqian hesitated and was about to shout again when Gillian finally came out, but her eyes were red, as if she had been crying, and her expression was very listless.
"What's wrong, Gillian? What happened?" When Su Qianqian saw her like this, she immediately walked forward.
"Qianqian..." As soon as Gillian opened her mouth, she couldn't stop crying, "Erzhu... he, he is sick..."
"Erzhu?" Su Qianqian was stunned when she heard that, and then she realized that Erzhu was Ah Jiao's beastly husband. "Why is he sick? Ah Jiao, don't panic, I'll help you take a look."
After saying that, she pulled Gillian into her cave.
There was indeed a male orc lying sickly on the stone bed inside. He looked pale and very weak. When he saw her come in, he just opened his eyelids weakly.
Seeing him like this, Gillian cried even harder: "Qianqian, what should I do? Erzhu has been complaining about feeling unwell since last night. He aches all over his body, and it got even worse this morning. He's been nauseous and vomiting, and now he doesn't even have the strength to get out of bed... Wuuwuwu, is he going to die?"
"What has he eaten these days?" Su Qianqian walked over to check on Erzhu's condition. He didn't look like he had a heat stroke...
At this time, another beast husband of Ah Jiao came in, holding a stone bowl filled with water. He fed some water to Er Zhu on the bed and said, "In the past few days, he has eaten nothing but red fruits and some ordinary beast meat."
Hearing this, Su Qianqian frowned. It wasn't heatstroke, nor was it something she had eaten that was bad. These symptoms seemed more like another illness...
She was unsure for a moment, so she walked up to Erzhu and said, "Stretch out your wrist, I'll help you take a look."
Erzhu looked at her weakly, seeming a little hesitant.
Gillian hurriedly said, "Erzhu, please let Qianqian help you. She is a witch doctor."
Only then did Erzhu stretch his hand out from under the animal skin.
As soon as Su Qianqian felt his pulse, she was almost burned by the high temperature of his skin and pulled her hand back.
This body temperature is far higher than that of a normal person, about 40 degrees Celsius, right?
Su Qianqian frowned, touched the other person's wrist and saw that his pulse was beating very fast.
She added, "Stick out your tongue and let me see it."
Erzhu did as he was told, opened his mouth and stuck out his tongue, which turned blue.
Looking closely, the hand Erzhu stretched out was trembling slightly, and there were some purple marks on the pale skin.
Judging from the above symptoms, Su Qianqian could probably guess what disease it was.
--malaria.
This disease is extremely common in hot and humid Africa and is mostly caused by parasitic infection.
Malaria is a difficult disease to treat. It must be cured with special herbal medicine. If it is not cured, it can be fatal...
Just as Su Qianqian was wondering if there was a cure for malaria in the Beast World, Ah Jiao's other beast, Erlou, spoke with some dissatisfaction: "Alright, if you can't tell what this disease is, don't bother looking at it. It's a waste of time. Let's take Erzhu to see the witch doctor in the tribe."
His words showed distrust of Su Qianqian, and his tone seemed to be saying, what kind of illness can a little female like you treat?
After saying that, without waiting for A Jiao to speak, he carried Er Zhu on the bed and walked straight out of the cave.
Seeing this, Gillian could only smile apologetically at Su Qianqian: "Qianqian, Erlou is just like that, don't be angry."
Erzhu and Erlou are brothers. Erzhu is seriously ill, so Erlou naturally has no patience.
Su Qianqian didn't say anything, just looked at the two brothers' backs, grabbed Gillian who was about to chase after them, and said, "Gillian, do you know that the witch doctor has a herb called Beast Lure Grass?"
"Beast-luring grass?" Gillian was stunned when she heard this, and replied subconsciously: "I know, it's a grass that the priests regard as ominous. Once touched, it will bring big trouble..."
Su Qianqian narrowed her eyes and suddenly asked, "Haven't you ever doubted the time when you were chased by a wild beast and fell down the hillside?"
Gillian was stunned: "Qianqian, what do you mean?"
Su Qianqian signaled to the two brothers outside the cave with her eyes.
Now even Gillian, who was usually slow to react, understood what she meant.
"No, it's impossible!" She shook her head repeatedly, "Erzhu and Erlou are very good to me, they can't betray me!"
As she spoke, she eagerly stretched out the mark of the beast on her wrist to show Su Qianqian: "Qianqian, have you forgotten the meaning of the mark of the beast? If I die, they will also be devoured by the power of the mark of the beast and lose half of their lifespan. As long as the mark of the beast is there, they will never betray me!"
Speaking of the beast mark...this is also something Su Qianqian has never been able to figure out.
Clearly, Erzhu and Erlou's behavior with Lanti that night was suspicious, but the Beast Mark has a very strong binding force on male orcs. Logically speaking, they shouldn't betray Gillian...
