Chapter 526: Treating the Child

Nan Qinghuan slowly approached the child, whose body was clad in Tiger Skin clothing, with many hairs clinging to it, and the whole body was a blur of blood and flesh.

"You all go down, I need to examine the child's body."

Rongdi and Ying saw that they were going to treat the child; after thinking for a moment, he hurriedly said, "Ying, we should go out first and let them see."

"Qinghuan…"

Ying was somewhat worried, fearing that the child might bring a plague.

After all, last time he saw his own tribe members in the same condition, so he was very worried that they might also be infected; if they were infected, what would happen to the child? "It's fine, it shouldn't be an infectious disease. If it were, A Yao and the others would have been infected too; you see, they aren't."

"Ying, it's not an infectious disease; in our Tribe, only she is like this. I swear, my tribe members can also swear."

The few tribe members who brought the child back said the same; hearing them, Ying was silent for a moment, then nodded, "Alright, we'll go out first. If we can't cure her, so be it; let them leave here."

In Ying's mind, he still didn't quite trust A Yao's words; this child was always a trouble here!

Soon, after the two men left, Nan Qinghuan hurried to the child's side to take her pulse; after she finished, Jiguang quickly asked, "What's the matter, what's the problem?"

Nan Qinghuan said nothing, examined the child again, and upon finding no other issues, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Don't worry, it's not a hard-to-treat infectious disease, but it's still troublesome."

"What is it?"

"It's Herpes, usually caused by excess heat. It typically appears on the mouth and clears in a few days, but if it appears on the body it's very troublesome; severe cases cause fever and can endanger life."

Hearing this, Youchao Xuan was somewhat worried, "Then Goddess, what should we do now?"

"Goddess, what illness do you say A Le has?"

"A Le, is this child called A Le?"

A Yao nodded, "That's right, she's called A Le; she's the leader's youngest daughter. You must save her."

"What do you mean youngest daughter?"

They didn't understand; these leaders have many women and certainly bear seven or eight children. The most she had ever seen was fifteen children, belonging to a small tribe leader of an external tribe; those children could fill half a class at school.

A Yao was somewhat helpless, crouched down and stroked the child's emaciated little hand, her eyes also a bit sad, "Because several of her brothers were eaten by beasts. We are a Beast Taming Tribe; from birth we must contend with beasts, but her brothers were devoured, and in our lands they are no longer our people. A Le is the only daughter who wasn't eaten, so the leader liked her very much, hoping she would grow strong and bolster our Beast Taming Tribe. But she fell ill with a strange disease; the leader consulted a witch but couldn't cure her. When I returned I didn't mention it; it was the Matriarchal Tribe's leader who inadvertently brought it up, saying Ying's Oum medical skill is superb. So the leader had me bring her to you for a look. If you can cure A Le, we will be friends forever."

Hearing this, Nan Qinghuan fully understood; so that's why!

It turned out the Matriarchal Tribe's leader had spread her story.

"Alright, I get it. You also go out first; let me think of a solution."

After A Yao and her party left, Youchao Xuan hurriedly asked, "Goddess, what is Herpes?"

Nan Qinghuan, knowing Youchao Xuan didn't understand, quickly began to explain, "Actually it's a kind of bacterial and viral infection. The weather isn't very hot yet, but she's had it for several days; ordinary medicine can't cure it well, and the effect is slow."

Youchao Xuan didn't grasp the bacterial infection part; he only understood that Nan Qinghuan said it's hard to treat.

"Then what should we do?"

What to do? Nan Qinghuan actually still had a way.

The all‑powerful Space Mall can help!

"Nan Qinghuan, do the Herbal Medicines here have any that can suppress the virus?"

Nan Qinghuan thought for a moment, "Alright, fetch dandelion to brew water for her to drink, give her a bath, prepare some wine to wash the wound, clean it and change her clothes; as for the ointment, I'll handle it."

"Dandelion, will that work?"

Youchao Xuan knew what dandelion was, its heat‑clearing and detoxifying properties, but it couldn't possibly be that simple!

"You go find the boiled water first; leave the rest to me. Jiguang, the child's body‑wiping is up to you."

The child is a girl, about seven or eight years old, so it wouldn't be appropriate for Youchao Xuan to wipe her body; Jiguang was naturally willing—anyway, as long as it's not an infectious disease, it's fine!

"Don't worry, leave it to me."

Soon, the three each set off on their own; after Nan Qinghuan went out, Ying saw her return and asked, "Qinghuan, what's the situation?"

"Don't worry, no problem; I can treat this child."

"Goddess, can you cure?"

Hearing this, A Yao hurried over, never having imagined Nan Qinghuan could find a solution so quickly. "Don't worry, it's just a viral infection. Just don't see her for a few days; the wound will fester and cause infection, and anyone who touches it will get Herpes. Stay away. For these days, the child is under my, Jiguang's, and Youchao Xuan's care. You just wait here; after seven days there will be results."

"Seven days?"

Soon, Nan Qinghuan went into the Plane Mall; she still had a few beans, perfect for buying Western medicine.

In fact, there is a specific medicine for treating Herpes.

Axiluo Wei Ointment, a medicine specifically for Herpes; just apply it for a week and it works.

When she went out after obtaining the medicine, it was already dark outside.

"Goddess, A Le woke up and has been crying nonstop, what should we do?"

"What's wrong?"

"She says the wound hurts and won't let anyone touch it."

Youchao Xuan was helpless; originally he was supposed to brew dandelion into a soup medicine for the child to drink, but the child wouldn't drink and kept crying, and both he and Jiguang were at a loss with the child.

"Let me take a look, don't rush."

Soon, when she entered the room, the child's incessant cries could still be heard: "I don't want to drink, I want to find my father, who are you?"

"You little girl, stop messing around."

Jiguang was usually a very good‑natured person, but this time he was also angry; the girl's temperament was so strange that no matter how he tried to soothe her, he couldn't.

A Le tried to get up and leave, "A Yao, where are you? What is this place? I'm scared."

The child was crying sadly; Nan Qinghuan pushed the door open and saw the child wailing, "Little girl…"

When A Le first saw Nan Qinghuan, she felt very at ease; her emotions immediately calmed. "Who is this? White-skinned Female? Ape Tribe?" "Are you a member of the Ape Tribe?"
