Chapter 210 Drugs
Ning Ke saw that Dabao and the others were snoring in their sleep, and it seemed that they were really tired, so her hands became much lighter.
By the way, where is Xueyu?
"Lanlan, where is Xueyu?"
The well-behaved monkey cub Lanlan and the golden monkey cub Mengmeng were quietly peeling chestnuts. Upon hearing this, they turned around and pointed to the shelf inside.
[Sister, there.]
Ning Ke stood up and walked in after hearing that. Inside was a completely shaded area that was arranged according to Xueyu's request.
Behind the curtain, Xueyu turned its back to Ning Ke, closed its eyes and shrunk its head. Seeing it like this, Ning Ke smiled and patted it lightly.
"I know you haven't slept yet. Come here and let me see your wound."
She didn't believe that it couldn't hear the voices of them outside. She didn't know who this kid learned this from. He was so ashamed and wanted to save face.
[Sister, I don't feel any pain anymore, really.] Xueyu saw Ning Ke reaching out her hand and quickly turned around, not wanting her to check.
Ning Ke looked at it helplessly. It couldn't be okay. It couldn't even fly yesterday.
"Come over here and apply some medicine on you, otherwise your butt will get infected and rot, and then all your beautiful feathers will fall off."
Xueyu widened her eyes in horror when she heard this, with a look of disbelief. Looking at Ning Ke's serious expression, the boy finally nodded and agreed to apply the medicine.
Seeing its miserable appearance, Ning Ke felt helpless and distressed. "Next time you fight, be smarter and stay calm. You are the king of the sky. It will be terrible if you get pounced on."
[Yes, remember, sister, I am the king of the sky.] The little guy straightened his chest and looked at Ning Ke with a determined face.
"Yes, don't go out and play all the time. Practice more strength and skills at home. In the future, they won't be your opponents. You will be the most powerful one, okay?"
The kid's eyes sparkled and he nodded continuously because of the praise.
While chatting with it to distract its attention, I lifted its feathers to check its wounds.
Sure enough, how could it be really okay? I gently applied the anti-inflammatory ointment to the slightly red and swollen wound.
I couldn't help but grit my teeth. Those brutal mutant beasts were really troublesome. I would not show mercy next time I met them.
After treating Xueyu's wound, he fed it two mutated silverfish that could help it recover, then took out some fish meat to feed it and turned and left.
The external injury ointments that Fu Rou prepared for me last time were really helpful. I used up most of them this time. It seems I need to contact her.
……
At this moment, Fu Rou was busy and nervous. A large number of frostbite patients appeared in the team returning from the mission.
Some patients only have mild numbness, which is relieved by returning home to warm up once they get back to base;
However, some patients have become completely numb and have lost sensation in their limbs, and some even have necrosis spreading upwards.
Medicines are already in short supply as the cold season begins, and the number of new medicines stockpiled by traditional Chinese medicine is also limited. Due to the lack of medicines, many people have died from wound infections.
When Ning Ke called her via video, Fu Rou hadn't slept for two days and was busy as a top.
Seeing that it was Ning Ke's video call, Fu Rou grabbed the dean who was passing by her and handed him the syringe, "Frostbite blisters, drain the fluid." After saying that, she turned around and quickly left the minimally invasive room.
Dean:…
Why did he feel like something bad was going to happen every time he passed by Dr. Fu? He kept mumbling to himself, but he still accepted his fate, picked up the syringe, and started working.
"Ning Ke, did something happen?" Fu Rou asked before Ning Ke could say hello.
"It's okay, I just made a video call to thank you for the ointment you gave me last time." Looking at Fu Rou's dark circles and messy hair opposite her, Ning Ke swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue.
She took it for granted and forgot that it was the cold season. With such a large population base, how could there be ointment?
"What's wrong with you? What happened at the base?"
Fu Rou then realized how unkempt she looked and tidied her hair awkwardly.
"Many people who have returned from recent missions have suffered severe frostbite, and the hospital is overcrowded every day."
Ning Ke's heart skipped a beat when she heard this. "Is there not enough medicine?"
"Well, it was already scarce, and now it's even more stretched." Fu Rou nodded with a wry smile.
He sat down cross-legged against the wall exhausted, leaning his whole body against the wall at the angle.
"Thank you for your hard work." Thinking that there were still many Western medicines in his space, he didn't pick and choose and just put them all into the space. When Brother Zhan comes, he will bring them back to the base.
Fu Rou smiled and said, "I'm used to it, so I don't think it's a big deal. Everyone goes through this."
"No one is taken for granted. You are very capable." Ning Ke looked at her thinner cheeks and felt a little sad.
"The base is short of supplies now?"
Fu Rou nodded slightly. "It's because of the lack of resources that they brave the cold weather to go on missions. It's okay, they won't starve to death."
It is impossible to have enough to eat. Now everyone eats from a big pot in the cafeteria. The base provides appropriate subsidies, and every household eats the stored food. Starving to death is really not a problem.
"You look like you're doing well, with so many awesome friends. It's really enviable." Fu Rou looked at Ning Ke with gentle eyes.
"Has the base ever sent anyone to Dingshan Lake?" Ning Ke suddenly asked.
"No, what's wrong?" Fu Rou saw Ning Ke's serious expression and couldn't help but sit up straight and look at her.
"There is a kind of fish in Dingshan Lake. I call it silverfish. This is it." As he said this, he took out a mutated silverfish from the space and showed it to Fu Rou.
"This fish is very helpful for wound healing. However, there seems to be a group of mutant monkeys near Dingshan Lake that are very difficult to deal with."
Fu Rou jumped up and went to tell the dean the good news.
"Ning Ke, let's stop talking. I'm going to find the dean and tell him the news."
Ning Ke nodded and said goodbye before hanging up the video call.
He sighed slightly and looked at the furries resting with their eyes closed with relief. This life was just like the lucky life described in novels.
He went to his lazy sofa and took out the medicines that he had randomly put into the space.
She slowly began to search for the things she could use, and put the rest that she couldn't use into an extra-large plastic storage box.
Looking at the five or six full boxes of medicines, Ning Ke brushed her hair. Did she really collect so many medicines?
The only storage box I have available is not even full.
Seeing that it was getting late outside, Ning Ke frowned. Didn’t they say that Brother Zhan would arrive today?
After packing up his things, putting on his clothes, and putting out the fire in the iron stove with coal, he quietly left the cabin. The uninjured kids also followed Ning Ke.
They came to the big house downstairs and took out meat from the space. After the cubs had eaten and drunk their fill, they returned to their nests, eagerly waiting for Ning Ke to play educational films for them.
After settling the cubs down, there was still no movement outside.
Is he in trouble?
