When Cheng Yuntao helped the man in black into the cave, everyone was really shocked.

"This man is not dead yet, he's still breathing! Don't be afraid!"

"Come up and give me a hand. I've been carrying it all the way and I'm almost out of strength."

After hearing that it was a living person, Zhou Xiufang's solemn and suspicious expression instantly faded a lot, and she quickly ordered her two children to come forward to help.

"Xiaozhu, Xiaoli, go and help your sister."

After a few hurried efforts, they finally transferred the person in safely. Cheng Yuntao also fell to the side and gasped for breath.

"Everyone, please evacuate first. Leave this to me. I'll tell you the details after I treat her wounds."

Time waits for no one. If she delays any longer, this person might really die here. She doesn't want to work in vain.

Cheng Yuntao moved the screen over, temporarily blocking the view of others, and then changed her soaked clothes without hesitation.

After drying himself, he simply applied some herbal medicine to the wound.

She had just picked up the violet yedoensis and dandelions when she came back. Both of these herbs grow mostly in the grass on hillsides and on the edges of forests. They are very common and easy to collect.

Mash them together and mix them evenly, then apply them to the wound and wrap it with gauze to prevent the juice from getting on clean clothes.

Viola yedoensis and dandelion have the effects of clearing away heat and detoxifying, reducing swelling and dispersing nodules. They have a good synergistic therapeutic effect on the redness, swelling, heat, pain, and inflammatory reactions that appear in wounds after injuries, and can prevent further deterioration of the wound.

She didn't have any systematic medical knowledge, so she could only do her best based on the original owner's experience in picking herbs. Whether she could survive depended on her luck.

After treating the wound, Cheng Yuntao found a set of clean clothes and changed the man into them. Then she covered him with a thick quilt, praying that he would warm up and wake up soon.

After busying herself for a while, she wiped the sweat from her forehead and came out from behind the screen. When she looked up, she saw the three people staring at her.

"It's okay for now, let's see when she can wake up."

Cheng Yuntao moved her sore shoulders and felt sad that she could encounter such a weird thing.

"Yun Tao, you are still a little girl. It's not a good idea to rashly rescue a strong man and keep him by your side."

"Although we live in this cave now and don't have to worry about people gossiping, but grandma... but grandma still feels uneasy."

"When he wakes up, let him go."

Cheng Yuntao knew what Grandma Zhou Xiufang was worried about, so she waved her hand and smiled freely.

"Oh, grandma, don't worry. I've already confirmed that the person I saved is a woman. Once she wakes up and regains her strength, I'll naturally let her go."

"I don't know when she will wake up. Let's make some ginger soup first. At least she can drink it to warm her body when she wakes up." Cheng Yuntao said as she turned towards the stove.

Zhou Xiufang was a little slow to react. She peeked inside several times and stared at the handsome face for a long time before she reluctantly accepted the shock of the news.

Looking at her now, she does seem to be quite pretty, but how could a girl fall off a cliff dressed in all black?

Zhou Xiufang shook her head and moved silently. Never mind. After all, Yuntao had her own ideas in mind, so she should just stop worrying about it.

Cheng Jingzhu and Cheng Yueli also lay behind the screen, occasionally poking their heads out to peek, their eyes full of curiosity.

……

Ginger is warm in nature and has the effect of warming the middle and dispersing cold.

When people get cold after soaking in water, the cold evil can easily invade the body, causing symptoms such as fear of cold and chills.

Drinking ginger soup at this time, the gingerol and other ingredients in it can promote blood vessel dilation, accelerate blood circulation, and make the body feel warm, thereby effectively dispelling cold evil and relieving discomfort caused by cold.

Cheng Yuntao dug some fresh ginger from the portable farm, washed it, cut it into slices, put it in a pot, added appropriate amount of water, and boiled it over high heat.

After the water boils, turn to low heat and simmer slowly. During this process, stir it from time to time so that the flavor of the ginger can be fully absorbed into the water.

Ginger is also a very magical ingredient. It can eliminate many toxins and harmonize various flavors.

Some people want the properties of ginger but cannot accept its taste, but it is actually not difficult to remove the spiciness.

You can mix the ginger with fried salt, or blanch it in boiling water, but it should not be exposed to the sun, otherwise the ginger will become stringy and have residue. If you soak the ginger with ingredients and then expose it to the sun, there will be no problem.

In addition, crush two walnuts and place them at the bottom of the jar containing ginger, and the ginger will not be too spicy; sprinkle half-cooked corn powder on the mouth of the jar, and there will be no residue in the ginger; put a few pieces of cicada shells at the bottom of the jar, and even if you use old ginger, there will be no tendons.

The above are all experiences passed down by our predecessors. As to whether they are true and effective, it remains to be put into practice.

As time passed, the color of the water changed and it emitted a rich ginger aroma. Cheng Yuntao added an appropriate amount of brown sugar and stirred it again.

You can turn off the heat until the brown sugar is completely dissolved, but there is no need to rush to serve it. You can wait for a while, let it cool down, and then serve it in a bowl.

"Sister! He's awake!"

Just when the ginger soup was almost ready, Xiaozhu's surprised cry came from not far away.

So fast? Cheng Yuntao raised her eyebrows in surprise, then scooped out the boiled ginger soup and walked over.

After walking around the screen, his eyes met the other person's.

Her fair skin was tinged with a faint cold glow, her eyebrows were like distant ink, and under the slightly upturned corners of her eyes were a pair of deep and cold eyes, like a cold star falling into a quiet deep pool, clear yet revealing a sense of alienation that kept people thousands of miles away.

The loose long hair softened the coldness in her eyes and eyebrows, adding a bit of worldly air.

"Awake? Have a bowl of ginger soup first."

After hesitating for a moment, Shen Shulan obediently reached out to take it. This surprised Cheng Yuntao a little. She had imagined many scenarios, but she didn't expect it to be so harmonious and smooth.

As the ginger soup takes a sip, the rich ginger aroma instantly spreads in your mouth. The spicy taste of ginger stimulates your taste buds and the tip of your tongue feels slightly numb, but it is not sharp. Instead, it is a gentle and layered stimulation.

As the ginger soup flows in the mouth, the sweetness brought by brown sugar or rock sugar gradually emerges, cleverly neutralizing the spiciness of ginger, making the taste more balanced and mellow.

After swallowing the ginger soup, the throat seemed to be gently wrapped by a warm current. The warmth continued to spread throughout the body. The chill caused by the cold gradually dissipated, and the limbs slowly felt warm, and the whole person became relaxed.

Shen Shulan unconsciously drank a few more sips, letting the warmth and comfort linger.
