Crossing the Western Tianshan Mountains

Chapter 17: Irrelevant Matters

Ling Fengxi watched Fang Ya deftly take out the ointment from the medicine box, grab his hand, and apply it to the cracks on his hands. He couldn't help but retract his hand.

Fang Ya said coldly, "Don't think too much. I'm a doctor and you're a patient."

Ling Fengxi had no choice but to let her play with his hands.

Fang Ya asked stubbornly, “Did you think of Ayala just now?”

"Didn't you say you were a doctor? Why are you asking about something that has nothing to do with my wound?"

"Mental illness is also an illness. Am I not worried that your mental illness will become more serious?"

"You treat mental illness? You're just a jack-of-all-trades doctor."

"Don't get off topic. Let me ask you, why didn't you marry Ayala?"

Ling Fengxi still refused to answer. "It happened a long time ago. Why are you asking? The answer now may not be the same as the answer then. It's meaningless."

Fang Ya didn't stop moving, but she didn't speak anymore.

Ling Fengxi is usually like an emotionless robot. Being able to say such philosophical and emotional words is already his best.

That evening, the workers finally got to eat the braised pork that Wu Yongjie had promised them. Wu Yongjie drove for several hours to the county and bought the fresh meat with his own money, then hurried back just in time for dinner.

The whole camp was filled with the aroma of meat, which even attracted several shepherds grazing nearby to come over to check on the situation, but they were not Jiayi Laobai. They just stood far away and watched the people in the camp.

They knew that there would be new changes in the Western Tianshan area.

But for these shepherds, these changes seem to have nothing to do with them, or not completely. Where people live, there is less pasture.

The arrival of Ling Fengxi and these engineering teams was not a good thing to celebrate for the shepherds.

A week later, Li Jianguo returned as expected.

His head and legs were wrapped in gauze. He stayed in the hospital for a week, which made him even thinner and paler.

Wu Yongjie felt distressed upon seeing this and said to Fang Ya, "Doctor Fang, please pay more attention to Xiao Li and give him good treatment. He is our technical backbone."

Fang Ya didn't like Wu Yongjie, but she also felt that Li Jianguo was having a hard time, so she said to Cheng Yue, "Help him in quickly."

He then said to Ling Fengxi, "He has to remain hospitalized, which means he has to live in our medical team's camp. I'm afraid we'll have to set up another tent next door."

Ling Fengxi nodded and said, "Arrange it."

In fact, Li Jianguo didn't want to live in the medical team's camp. He felt that there were only women coming and going, which made him very uncomfortable. Moreover, it was not very convenient to go to the toilet and live in daily life. However, if he lived in other camps, it would be a bit far from the medical team's camp, and it would not be very convenient for the medical team to come and go.

These girls feel even more uncomfortable when they go to places where there are many men.

In the end, Li Jianguo obeyed the arrangement and lived in the medical team.

The injury on his head looks scary, but it is actually not serious. He just fell into a coma because he had symptoms of concussion after being hit by a rock. The injury on his leg seems to be more troublesome at the moment, because although the bones are not injured, a large piece of flesh is almost dug out.

Cheng Yue removed the gauze and saw that there were even blood blisters around the wound due to the blood infiltration. She took a needle to puncture the blood blisters, applied dark yellow medicine again, and bandaged it again.

"You really shouldn't be discharged in this situation. We don't have all the necessary equipment here, and it's likely to take a long time to recover." Cheng Yue looked at Li Jianguo sympathetically. "You could have taken a few more days off."

Li Jianguo shook his head. "It just looks scary, it doesn't hurt that much. I can even walk now."

Cheng Yue shook her head, not understanding his fanatical work attitude. After all, it was cold and wet here, and everyone was stationed here. What did it matter if one person was missing?

Why do you have to come back so quickly?

Of course, Cheng Yue didn't know the importance of Li Jianguo's existence.

Cheng Yue entered the tent and was about to take some anti-inflammatory medicine to Li Jianguo when someone suddenly walked in through the curtains. "You have a cold. Buy me some cold medicine."

Cheng Yue said hurriedly, "We have cold medicine. Wait a minute."

When I turned around, I found that the person coming was tall and burly, and it was Lin Jinghui.

Lin Jinghui was looking around the medical room. When he saw two chairs, he sat down. "I have a terrible headache. Do you have any painkillers?"

"Headache?" Cheng Yue felt that her thinking was a little slow and her heart was beating a little fast. Alas, this man's good looks were really a disaster.

Cheng Yue said, "Wait until I call Dr. Fang. I'm just a nurse."

Fang Ya came after a while, because she had gone to the construction site to measure the workers' blood pressure. In such a high and cold place, it is necessary to pay attention to blood pressure.

When they came back in, Lin Jinghui was slumped in his chair, his eyes closed, looking as if he were in a coma. Fang Ya and Cheng Yue were startled. They touched Lin Jinghui's head and found it was very hot. Fang Ya said, "It's at least 39 degrees Celsius. He needs to be brought down immediately. Also, I don't know if he has any other complications. Bring the electrocardiogram."

The medical team was busy for a while, and the tent that had just been set up for Li Jianguo had a new patient, Lin Jinghui, who also lived inside. Li Jianguo knew Lin Jinghui and quickly called Wu Yongjie.

After a while, Wu Yongjie came and saw Fang Ya giving Lin Jinghui an IV drip.

He slapped his head hard and tutted his tongue. "You two, how come it's you important ones who get into trouble? Those workers play cards every day, so why don't they get injured or have fevers?"

Li Jianguo was speechless and simply took out his headphones to listen to music.

Seeing that Li Jianguo didn't respond, Wu Yongjie had no choice but to ask Fang Ya, "How is he?"

"I think it's a bad cold with pneumonia. I can hear lung murmurs and a fever. I'll definitely have to take a few days off."

Wu Yongjie slapped his head hard again...

Two of his brave men fell. Although he could comfort himself that the real project had not officially started yet and even the exit from the cave had not been determined, why was he in such a hurry?

But what he was afraid of was that because of the harsh conditions, if accidents kept happening one after another, who knew how long this situation would last?

Lin Jinghui was woken up by him, but when he saw it was Wu Yongjie, he immediately turned his head and pretended to be asleep. Fang Ya saw it, but did not expose him.

Wu Yongjie could only say, "Can you please go out? The patient needs to rest."

Wu Yongjie said awkwardly, "They are my soldiers. Can't I even look at my own soldiers?"

Fang Ya had no choice but to say it again concisely, "Get out."

Under Fang Ya's stubborn and calm gaze, Wu Yongjie had no choice but to walk out.

Just then I received a call from Ling Fengxi, "The shield machine is about to enter the site."

Wu Yongjie rushed to the place Ling Fengxi mentioned without saying a word.
