Gu Chen knew that the bowl of medicine he was holding in his hands did not look very appealing.
Or rather...it looked really bad.
But this was the most effective prescription he could come up with in the shortest amount of time.
Although he had planted a lot of medicinal herbs in the system space, and the time flow rates inside and outside the space were different,
But different flow rates do not mean complete stillness.
With intermediate medical skills, he knew very well that the child was now at the most critical juncture of his life.
Every second of delay would increase the danger to the other party.
He really did not have time to think about so many things, not even the medicinal herbs in the bowl.
He had dug them up from the ground, crushed them, and then boiled them over an open fire to make the decoction.
As for waiting for the hospital to save him, that was not impossible.
But an hour's drive would mean that by the time they arrived, the boy's body would have cooled.
Although Gu Chen himself was not 100% sure that he could completely cure the other person.
But with his medical skills and the high-quality medicinal herbs in the system space, he could find a way to stabilise Xiao Xuan's condition.
It was even possible to temporarily keep the other person alive.
After the dark green herbal medicine in his hands was completely poured in,
Xiao Xuan, who had been in a coma before, gradually began to regain consciousness.
Gu Chen then grabbed his wrist again and began to take his pulse.
After a while, the tense expression on his face finally eased slightly.
At the same time, he turned his head and said to Zhang Teacher and the driver, who were also full of worry.
'Driver, continue driving to the hospital. Xiao Xuan's body will not be in any danger for the time being.'
After hearing this, everyone's hearts inexplicably followed and they all let out a breath of relief.
Even the driver's face revealed a hint of joy.
He nodded vigorously, and the bus kicked up a cloud of dust on the suburban concrete road.
It sped towards the hospital.
After Gu Chen had finished giving the medicine, she didn't stop there.
She reached into her pocket and, in front of everyone,
pulled out a fresh piece of...mushroom?
Without hesitation, she fed it to the patient the next second.
Seeing this, the parents in the car couldn't help but swallow.
When they looked at Gu Chen again, their eyes were basically no different from looking at an old Mongolian witch doctor.
After all, they knew about traditional Chinese medicine, and acupuncture or herbal medicine were within their understanding.
Even if Gu Chen now grabbed a scorpion and told them to use poison to fight poison,
that would barely be explainable.
But the idea of eating raw mushrooms to cure an illness was really beyond their understanding.
Even a few of those close to her could see that the small piece of mushroom was very fresh.
They even suspected in their hearts that Gu Chen hadn't just picked it off the ground from under a tree.
After all, this was the outskirts of Chengdu, and they had read in the newspaper about people getting poisoned from eating mushrooms every year.
Could it be that this was some kind of treatment that used poison to fight poison?
The people present were all confused, but they didn't dare say a word.
Xiaoxuan's mother is a shrew with a lot more fighting spirit than they have, and she's not saying a word.
She's hunched over behind the seat, not daring to even fart.
If they can't help but blurt something out, what if Gu Chen beats them up again?
Although the mothers present were thinking this in their hearts, they suddenly felt that this person might not be some kind of wimp.
This person is faster than a rabbit and decisive.
But for the time being, no one dared to stick their head out and talk nonsense.
Gu Chen hoped that these people would be quiet for a while.
After all, if he really chased after them and asked how the steaming bowl of medicine came about,
he himself would not know how to answer.
It was a remote area surrounded by wilderness, and even if he wanted to make fire by drilling wood, he would not have the time.
Forty minutes later, after a reckless drive,
the bus finally stopped in front of the gate of a hospital.
He saw a nurse rushing onto the bus with a stretcher.
Gu Chen knew that he could finally step down and let someone else take over.
In fact, after his continuous diagnosis and treatment along the way,
most of the toxins in Xiao Xuan's body had been dissolved.
His intermediate Chinese medicine skills were very effective in treating arsenic poisoning, also known as arsenic trioxide poisoning.
However, the allergic symptoms that had developed were still stubborn, and they would not be resolved so easily.
Western medicine could have an immediate effect in this regard.
Gu Chen would not try to be a hero.
What he wanted, from beginning to end, was to find a way to save the child's life.
It was only when he left the hospital with Tang Tang that he could clearly feel the woman's resentful gaze from the corner of her eye.
Gu Chen didn't bother to respond to her, but just looked at her pig-faced expression.
He couldn't help feeling sorry for the child called Xiao Xuan.
It was a feat that he had survived until now with such an unreasonable and stupid shrew for a mother.
After doing so, Gu Chen returned to the bus.
At this time, the other parents had already left with their children.
Only Zhang Qianqian and the driver were still there.
Gu Chen told them that Xiao Xuan was out of danger and the whole story of the food poisoning and seafood allergy.
After hearing the news, the driver and Zhang Qianqian could not help but feel a surge of emotion.
'Teacher Zhang, put it on ice for a while, it's good for your face.'
Gu Chen hugged Tang Tang in his left arm and took out an ice pack he had just bought at the hospital in his right hand.
and handed it to Zhang Qianqian, who had been covering her face, on the other side.
'Tantang's dad...'
Teacher Zhang looked at the warm smile on Gu Chen's face and the crisscrossing bloodstains on his arm.
For a moment, he couldn't help but be stunned, thinking that he had just done his best for a complete stranger.
Almost at the limit of his strength, and a warmth gradually welled up in his heart.
Then she reached out her hand and took the ice pack from him, also revealing her own slightly puffy cheek.
For the first time, a sincere and bright smile appeared on her face, and she said to Gu Chen at the same time:
'Thank you. Nowadays, there are very few people like you.'
Gu Chen scratched his head, looked at the other person's bright smiling face, and couldn't help but sigh.
"Teacher Zhang, in fact, it is not easy to do any job. People are not easy by nature. Obviously, it is for the good of the child, but it is misunderstood by the parents. Don't be discouraged. You are a good teacher.'
Zhang Qianqian smiled even more brightly in response, saying with a bright face:
'Thank you, Daddy Tangtang, you really are a good person.'
'Er...'
Gu Chen had long since become immune to the 'good person' card. He smiled, 'Well, I'll take the child back first.'
