Chapter 133 Bathing

Deng Yin had obviously never heard of it, otherwise she wouldn't have shared this medical tip with Liu Ding.

So if she doesn't take care of Gou Dan, he only has a 50% chance of getting rabies. The incubation period for rabies is at least a month. If Gou Dan regains his memory during this month, he might be able to turn back into a system.

But through Deng Yin's tireless efforts, he is now dizzy and may even face the problem of wound ulceration.

Judging from his current state, he doesn't seem like he can last for a month...

"Then what should we do?" Deng Yin asked. "Wouldn't it be fine if we just rinsed off all the salt?"

“Not necessarily,” Liu Ding said seriously. “It varies from person to person. Some people can heal even after salt is applied to their wounds, while others will die from ulceration within half a month because their wounds will not heal.”

If Gou Dan dies, will the system be able to recover? I need an answer urgently.

Fearing that Deng Yin would worry too much, Liu Ding comforted her, saying, "Don't worry, the doctors at our clinic are all highly skilled. They will do their best to save him."

"Can't you save him?"

Liu Ding's eyes darkened as he concealed his emotions. "I'm not a doctor, I'm just a worker."

Deng Yin was somewhat embarrassed, clearly still feeling ashamed of what had just happened. "I see... but—"

What's wrong with this patient?

When Dr. Zhang saw the straw mat outside the door, he thought someone was coming to cause trouble again.

Upon seeing Dr. Zhang arrive, Liu Ding quickly explained Gou Dan's condition to him in detail.

Dr. Zhang carefully examined Gou Dan's wound and found that it didn't look like it was from yesterday; the wound had already healed by more than half.

There must be a reason why the patient concealed his condition. Dr. Zhang was used to seeing this kind of person, so he didn't press the matter further.

"It's true that some people do act like rabid dogs after being bitten by a dog, but rubbing salt on the wound won't help; it will only worsen the pain." Dr. Zhang paused, then continued, "After being bitten by a dog, immediately rinse the wound with clean water. Although you might still act like a rabid dog, the chances of going crazy are much smaller than if you don't rinse it."

Seeing that Deng Yin hadn't spoken for a while, Dr. Zhang said, "The only thing I can do now is to cut away the flesh from his wound, otherwise the rot will only get bigger and bigger."

Deng Yin snapped out of his daze and nodded slightly.

"it is good."

Cutting out flesh is very painful. Fearing that Gou Dan would struggle, Dr. Zhang fed him a pot of wine before starting.

The treatment was very effective; he didn't wake up until Dr. Zhang finished bandaging him.

For a moment, Deng Yin didn't know whether to say the alcohol content was too high or that Gou Dan's alcohol tolerance was too low.

He must never touch alcohol again!

Gou Dan slept for two days straight, and Deng Yin couldn't tell whether he was asleep or unconscious.

Considering the excessive heat in the clinic, Deng hired two people to carry him home to recuperate.

He is in this state now, and Deng should bear at least half the responsibility.

Gou Dan is responsible for half the responsibility of being bitten by the dog, while Deng Yin is responsible for the other half—that rubbing salt into his wound only made it worse.

These days, Deng Yin has been trying to feed him water at fixed times and places, and has even put a kite in his room.

If Deng Yin knew that Gou Dan wouldn't have been bitten by a dog if it weren't for her, she would definitely try her best to become an alarm clock.

Humans have three urgent needs. No matter who it is, if they first drink a jar of wine and are fed water at least eight times a day, they can't help but engage in digestive activities.

After waking up, Gou Dan felt the wetness beneath him and incredulously threw back the covers.

Just then, Deng came in to give him water, and Gou Dan's face immediately turned red.

"get out!"

Deng Yin didn't know why he was so angry, even though she had taken such good care of him these past few days.

Dog Egg destroyed the evidence with lightning speed using only one hand, and even took a shower.

When it's hot, there's no need to boil water; you can just draw it directly from the well.

Seeing that he was having trouble carrying water with one hand, Deng Yin offered to help. "Let me help you."

"No need!" Gou Dan saw Deng Yin walking towards him and quickly took a big step back. In order to finish fetching water as quickly as possible, he even ignored the pain in his arms and pulled the rope with both hands.

The repeated rejections made Deng Yin a little unhappy, but when she thought of her half of the responsibility, she forced herself to suppress all her bad emotions.

Fearing that Deng Yin would come to help again, Gou Dan didn't go to fetch water again. The water in the bucket was only up to his waist.

After thinking it over, Deng Yin realized that he did bear a lot of responsibility for the matter, but that was no excuse for Gou Dan to give him the cold shoulder repeatedly.

“I think we were both wrong in this matter—” Deng Yin’s voice arrived before she did. She had come in with great momentum, but her arrogance immediately subsided when she saw Gou Dan’s naked upper body.

"Okay, this was my fault. The wound can't get wet, I'll be going now." Deng Yin's words were like a tongue twister, without a single breath. After saying that, he left as if fleeing.

Before leaving, he made sure to close the door behind him.

Dog Egg can't feel any pain in his arm now.

...all of it was overshadowed by the headache.

Dog Egg was still not satisfied after taking one bath, feeling that he still smelled. He took four baths in a row before stopping.

Deng Yin wasn't embarrassed at all that she had seen Gou Dan's upper body; she was mainly worried that he would feel awkward.

Although Gou Dan is a system, he has now lost his memory and will inevitably be influenced by the customs of this era.

It wasn't until Gou Dan took his fourth bath that Deng Yin was completely certain.

He must have thought the places she had seen were dirty, which is why he washed them so many times.

Deng Yin had always viewed Gou Dan through a kind of system-filtered lens. Even though Gou Dan ate and drank every day, Deng Yin never imagined that the system also had to relieve itself.

Furthermore, the blanket Deng Yin used to cover Gou Dan was dark-colored with a pattern, and it was only slightly damp, so it was practically invisible. It also had no smell at all; otherwise, she would have insisted on rinsing it in the wooden tub.

It was already completely dark, and Gou Dan's stomach seemed to be talking, constantly grumbling that he was hungry.

Having just gone through that incident, how could he possibly have the nerve to go see Deng Yin? He could only rummage around in the kitchen for anything edible.

He can't cook stir-fries or anything like that, but he can make a pot of stew.

Gou Dan chopped all the vegetables before starting to make the base sauce. He didn't see Deng Yin making it, but it shouldn't be difficult.

After all, even using milk as a base doesn't make it bad, so how bad could his version be?

Dog Egg loves spicy food, so he chopped up a bunch of red and green chilies and put them in a pot to cook, adding a little bit of salt and sugar.

Deng Yin had stockpiled a lot of seasonings, and Gou Dan couldn't tell them apart, so he simply added a little of each.

Since it's a seasoning, it definitely can't taste bad; adding more ingredients will only make it taste even better.

The dipping sauces that they ate before were all prepared by Deng Yin. Gou Dan just put some chili pieces and crushed peanuts into the dipping sauce she prepared.

This time, Gou Dan made his own dipping sauce and base sauce in a similar way, except that he added more Jiu Dou Dan Xiang sauce.
