soul shifting

Han Xiuyu squatted under the boat canopy, sneezed tremblingly, put on the robe that was draped over his shoulders, and tied his belt.

The changing seasons are very annoying. During the day, people will sweat when they are exposed to the sun, and at night, they will be cold when there is no sun.The medicine in the casserole was ready, bubbling and bubbling, and Han Xiuyu carefully poured the medicine into the bowl with a rag on his hands, and it was so dark that it was just a whole bowl.He walked into the cabin with the medicine bowl in his hand: "Uncle Shen, get up and take the medicine."

A piece of wood in the cabin was recessed, and a layer of straw was padded inside, which was barely a simple bed; a man with disheveled hair huddled under a gray and torn blanket, heard the sound moved, and said in a muffled voice: " immediately."

Han Xiuyu stretched out his hand to pull him: "Get up quickly, the medicine should be cold."

Shen An struggled sleepily, took the medicine bowl, sniffed it under her nose: "... what time is it?"

"You hour."

"Where are we?"

"I don't know, I haven't seen the town yet."

"Did you settle down for dinner?"

"Cassy is catching fish."

"Then..." Shen An paused, trying to think about what else to ask.

"Uncle Shen, don't delay," Han Xiuyu stared at him, "Drink the medicine quickly, and lie down to rest after drinking."

Shen An: "..."

He had no choice but to pinch his nose and forcefully pour it into his mouth. After filling half of the bowl, he choked and almost spit it out: "...water, give me some water."

Han Xiuyu sighed and gave him a cup of tea.

"This stuff makes me sick to my stomach." Shen An took a sip of medicine and tea, barely finished the bowl of bitter and sour medicine, and patted his chest: "I can't eat anymore, so I won't drink it tomorrow okay?"

"No, your fever hasn't subsided yet." Han Xiuyu didn't give him room to discuss at all: "Extend your hand, I'll change your medicine."

Well, it's time to go to prison again.Shen An slammed back into the bed pit, and stretched out his hand helplessly.

He felt that he was really miserable.

The wound was inflamed and caused a fever, and he couldn't walk, so he had to spend all his money to buy a small broken boat from the villagers, and continue to go to Lanxi by boat, so he could only choose grilled fish and fish soup for his daily meal; The sickness is not cured by the traditional Chinese medicine that is disgusting, but the disease is not cured at all. Up to now, I still feel sore and dizzy; and the most terrible thing is that I have to change the medicine routinely every day.

Shen An put his hands on his face, covering his ugly expression of grinning in pain.

"I really want to cry." He thought miserably in his heart.

Today is the fifth day since they drifted down the Fuchun River. Cassia Ming gained experience in catching fish, and Han Xiuyu's grilling skills are getting better and better.At dinner time, the three of them sat in the small cabin, surrounded by three delicious sea bass that were charred on the outside and tender on the inside.

The owner of the boat gave them all kinds of daily necessities on board when he sold the boat. There were a few packs of damp seasoning in the drawer of the cabin, which at least added some flavor to their miserable life on the river.Shen An didn't like spicy food, so he picked a fish with the least amount of chili noodles, gnawed it very unrefinedly, and rubbed his mouthful of oil.This meal was delicious for Shen An, but at night, for some reason, she felt uncomfortable in her stomach.He tossed and tossed in a daze, and finally woke up with discomfort, feeling that he might vomit.

Shen An was the only one in the cabin. Han Xiuyu and Jue Ming probably went out to release water; he held his chest to endure the nausea, and wanted to wait for them to come back before going out. Don't be seen as good.

However, Shen An endured it for a long time, and felt that his nausea was about to be suppressed. The two people didn't come back, so he had no choice but to throw up his heart and decided to go out and vomit without thinking. Silvery white, the narrow deck was empty.

Shen An's whole body shuddered, instinctively feeling something was wrong, and he didn't bother to vomit, and pulled out the chill on his waist with his backhand.

There was a soft sound of "poof", which seemed a bit abrupt on the silent river, Shen An turned his head suddenly, and saw a black shadow at the stern of the boat, hanging on the side of the boat like weightless, and the draft did not change at all.He kicked the oil lamp over there, and his pale face was illuminated.

His long hair was stuck to the top of his head like seaweed, and his skin was swollen and swollen, white and blue, without a trace of blood; his bony hands seemed to have only a layer of skin left to cover the bones, and the pointed nails were purple and gray , The nails were filled with mud.

"Damn! A water ghost!" Shen An was terrified, and was frightened for a moment; the thing that seemed to be a water ghost suddenly reached out and grabbed his ankle while he was in a daze; In addition to being overly frightened, the roots were dragged into the water without having time to react. With a "plop", the splashed water was as high as half a person, and wet the boat's canopy.

The water was bone-chillingly cold, and when the skin first touched it, there was almost an illusion of burning, and the air in the lungs could not be restrained from escaping, as if the cold had condensed into a solid entity, squeezing the chest cavity desperately.Shen An's drowsy mind was awakened instantly by the shock of the ice water; he quickly gritted his teeth, held his breath, and opened his eyes underwater.

The water ghost's hands were as tight as shackles, dragging him deeper and deeper into the water; Shen An arched his body slowly in the water, stretched out his chills, and slashed hard on the pale wrist.A ray of blood spread out, and the water ghost's withered hand loosened.

"Fuck, there's still blood in the water ghost?" Shen An was stunned, desperately kicked and stepped on the water, and floated to the surface of the water. After coming out of the water, he quickly took a big breath, his teeth chattering from the cold.

"what!"

Shen An heard someone shouting behind him, it seemed to be Han Xiuyu's voice, but after turning around, there were only faint ripples on the river surface. "Xiao Yu!" He yelled, and swam aimlessly. He didn't swim two or three meters, and was suddenly dragged into the water again.

"Fuck!" Shen An cursed in his heart, opened his eyes and saw that there were two people this time, one was the water ghost just now, and the other was a round yellow-skinned man, obviously a human being, struggling endlessly in his arms Han Xiuyu.

It turned out that it was not a water ghost at all, but a water bandit.

Shen An couldn't help but get angry, their boat is so broken, they don't have much money at first glance, what kind of grudge does they have to rob them!He exerted his inner strength on the soles of his feet, retracted his feet fiercely, and brought the two water bandits into a head-on collision, their heads knocked very loudly.Han Xiuyu took the opportunity to break free, and the two floated to the surface together.

"Jue, Cassia is there!" Panting, Han Xiuyu pointed to Jiang Xin. Cassia was floating on the river, seemingly unconscious.The two swam over to drag him back, and it took a lot of effort to climb back into the boat.

Cassia Ming was almost stripped, the decorations on his clothes, the small gemstones on his belt, the two or three copper coins in his arms, everything of value was taken away.Shen An pressed hard on his stomach a few times, so angry that she wanted to laugh.They are willing to freeze in the water just for such a broken thing, these water bandits are also talented.

Cassia Ming spat several times before waking up. The three of them changed their clothes and shook around the pitiful small fire in the stove like they were sifting chaff.The wind on the river was strong, Shen An wanted to get into the cabin and take out the blanket to wrap him up, but when he stood up, he felt dizzy for a while, and his stomach turned upside down.He staggered and held on to the side of the boat, retched a few times, and finally vented out the forgotten nausea intensified, and vomited so faintly that he almost vomited out his stomach.After vomiting, Shen An's eyes dimmed, and he lay down on the side of the boat and passed out.Han Xiuyu carried him into the cabin and untied the bandage on his arm.

The medicine powder that was applied just before dinner had been washed away by the river water, and the whole arm was swollen, and when it touched the wound, thick water would come out, and it was already seriously inflamed.

Han Xiuyu carefully wiped Shen An's wound clean with a bandage, and reached into the drawer to touch the wound medicine.There was no light in the cabin, only a little moonlight shining in through the tarpaulin. He searched in the dark for a long time but couldn't find it, and said a little annoyedly: "Jaiming, bring the oil lamp in."

"Oh, here we come." Caesar replied, and got into the boat tent with a lamp. "Crack" made his teeth sore, he felt something crushed under his feet, and when he lifted his foot, he saw that it was the small porcelain bottle containing the wound medicine.

Han Xiuyu stared at the broken bottle in a daze, and then said in a hoarse voice after a long while: "...Are you blind?"

"What?" Jueming didn't hear clearly.

"I'm asking if you're blind!" Han Xiuyu yelled suddenly, and Caesar was startled.

"Are you blind!" Han Xiuyu grabbed Cassia by the collar: "Are you blind! Are you blind! What are you asking Uncle Shen to use now! His wound is inflamed! What does he use!"

"Damn it! I didn't do it on purpose!" Cassia was also angry, and elbowed him: "Isn't it just a medicine! You can't buy it in towns or villages!"

"What if there has never been?" Han Xiuyu said coldly: "We only know that we can reach Lanxi along the Fuchun River. What if there are wilderness areas between here and Lanxi?"

Jue Ming was speechless.

Wound inflammation can be dangerous if not treated in time.

He was silent for a while, picked up the penny at the stern, and handed one to Han Xiuyu: "Brother Xiuyu, if we row the boat and go downstream, we will definitely find the village soon...don't worry too much."

On the Fuchun River, a small boat flies forward, as if wishing to leave the river wind behind.
