Beauty in his mirror

Chapter 12 How to Reduce Fever

In ancient times, a small typhoid cold could kill a person.

Especially when we are in a difficult situation, when we are isolated and helpless, even our mental energy will be destroyed, let alone the energy to resist the disease.

The oil lamp on the table flickered on and off, reflecting Yan Lanxi's flushed face. She seemed to be confused by the burn, and she closed her eyes and murmured: "Suzhu...water...give me water, Suzhu ..."

The maid's name is Suzhu.

Last night I took the money and went to the town to ask for a doctor, but now it is almost dawn, and no one has come back.

Gu Yan felt that the maid either ran away with the money, or met a gangster, which was more or less ominous.

There is also an old woman who burns fire in the house, but that old woman has inconvenient legs and feet, and is deaf, so she can't count on it now.

How to do?
Gu Yan kept staring at Yan Lanxi on the bed, struggling in his heart.

Du Hao's advice is still in his ears, but, could he just watch her die?She was only in her teens, so young, and so beautiful, she was too unjust to end up sick and die because of his prank.

"Water..." Yan Lanxi's voice was hoarse and weak, with a breathless air.

Gu Yan couldn't take it anymore, "Watching a little girl die, am I still human?"

Don't you just want to drink water?As much as you want!

Gu Yan put the copper mirror in the washbasin, and poured five or six bottles of mineral water into it.

He stood by the washbasin, not daring to breathe, for fear that the water ripples would make him unable to see clearly what was happening in the mirror.

The drowsy roof began to drip water, and the beams and pillars also leaked water, and it became more and more dense... Then it converged into a small stream and flowed down.

The whole house was covered in mist, like it was raining.

Yan Lanxi was extremely thirsty.

She subconsciously opened her mouth to catch the water dripping from above, the corners of her chapped lips were moistened, and at the same time, the quilt on her body was also wet.

Gu Yan could only think of this way to feed the water.

It wasn't until he found out that the quilt was wet that he realized that he had done something stupid!Let a patient with a high fever and dazed get covered with a wet quilt, is it because she doesn't die fast enough?

Fortunately, the quilt was thick and not drenched, and Gu Yan still had remedial measures.

After Yan Lanxi drank enough water, Gu Yan took the bronze mirror out of the water and blew it on the hot air setting of the hair dryer!
The hot air takes away the moisture in the house, and dries the quilt quickly.

Looking at Yan Lanxi again, he was still in a daze, his face was very red, and there was no sign of improvement.

Gu Yan was in a hurry.

No, if you continue to burn like this, it will really burn your brain!

But how to reduce fever?
In theory...it seems that the quilt should be lifted and an ice pack should be used to cool her down.But through the mirror, he couldn't touch the quilt, let alone deliver ice packs.

He has only simple and crude methods.

Gu Yan put the copper mirror into the refrigerator.

It was not easy to control the temperature. He stood guard at the door of the refrigerator. Every few minutes, he would take out the bronze mirror to have a look, and then try to judge from Yan Lanxi's expression whether she was cold or hot, and then make adjustments.

So busy until dawn.

Soak in mineral water when you are thirsty, blow hot air when it is wet, put it in the refrigerator when it is hot, and roast it with fire when it is cold.

I don't know whether it was because of his self-defeating or Yan Lanxi's good physique, after being tossed about by Gu Yan for a day, Yan Lanxi unexpectedly woke up.

She was sore and weak, and sat up weakly supporting her body, and called out "Suzhu" in a hoarse voice.

No one in the room responded, and she realized that Su Zhu hadn't come back yet.

Yan Lanxi was still ill, her whole body was muddled, and her mind was also confused. She couldn't think too much, so she slowly put on her shoes and got out of bed, and walked to the table step by step——

He lifted the teapot to pour water, but his hand was weak, and the teapot almost fell over.

"Oh, be careful."

Yan Lanxi was stunned when a strange male voice came to her ears.

Because she still had a fever, her reaction seemed slow, she looked around the room in a daze, and when she was puzzled, the voice sounded again——

"Damn it, can't you? Can you hear me?!"
