Five hundred and thirtieth chapters healed(1/2)

Cao Bin didn't believe that a malaria could take Luo Lie's life. He took a fancy to Luo Lie and wanted to try to train Luo Lie to become his successor. If he could not resist this disease after taking medicine and taking injections, then what qualifications would he be his successor? Cao Bin was even more worried that if Luo Lie lived in Anthony's clinic, he might be influenced by Western culture during his cultivation. At the age of thirteen or fourteen, it happened to be in the three-view shaping period, and once he went astray, it would be difficult to correct it.

Luo Lie did not disappoint Cao Bin. After taking the injection and taking the medicine, although he was still in a coma, his condition was stable.

Anthony came back a little later. After checking Luo Lie, there was a little smile on his face, "Dong, God seems to have heard our prayers. He is coming towards this child, and he is getting closer and closer." The patient's condition improved, and Anthony's mood also relaxed. He took out the prescription book, prescribed a new prescription for Luo Lie, and handed it to Celinena.

Dong Biao habitually took out the cigarette, pulled out one and put it under his nose and sniffed it, with a smile on his face, and replied: "God is still kind. In his heart, there is only a difference between good and evil, but there is no difference between the west and the east. It is not like you foreigners who look down on us Chinese from the bottom of your heart."

Anthony waved his hands repeatedly and said, "No, no, Dong, you were wrong."

Dong Biao raised his lips lightly, walked over and patted Anthony on the shoulder, and said, "I don't want to argue with you, Anthony, the brutal acts of the Eight-Nation Alliance have only been a few years ago, and facts are better than words. Let's go, Brother Bin is waiting for you in the restaurant!"

Anthony did not move at all, and his expression became serious. The joy in his eyes was swept away, and what was replaced was sorrow and sadness. "Dong, I have to say, you made me sad. Don't forget, I am a Jew, my Chinese friend. Although you have suffered shame, you still have a country after all, and we Jews have been wandering for thousands of years..."

Dong Biao has known Anthony for several years, but he never knew that he was actually a Jew. Dong Biao knew a little about the story of Jews. Although he did not understand Anthony's desire for his motherland, he couldn't help but feel soft when he saw Anthony's sadness and said, "Sorry, Anthony, I'll take back what I said just now."

Anthony sighed softly and said, "No, Dong, you didn't say anything wrong. I just want to say, we Jews have never looked down on you Chinese. Oh my God, look at what I have said, Dong, you and Brother Bin are my friends. Only in front of real friends can I say such things, do you understand?"

Dong Biao smiled and nodded and responded: "I understand, Anthony, please rest assured. I can't remember anything after leaving this door."

Anthony put his back arm around Dong Biao's shoulder and said happily: "Dong, you are really my good friend. Let's go and see Brother Bin. In your Mandarin, we are just two drinks from our brothers!"

Dong Biao laughed and said, "Anthony, your Mandarin is becoming more and more fluent, but you don't know that drinking two cups in Mandarin is not really two cups, maybe ten cups, twenty cups, or even fifty cups!"

When Anthony heard this, he couldn't help but stop and said seriously: "Dong, I believe you are an honest person. You must tell me how much it is."

The two of them walked out of the room with their arms around each other. The two of them had arguing about how many cups and laughter after the argument broke out in the corridor. At this time, Luo Lie, who was lying on the bed, suddenly woke up. "An Zhai, An Zhai?" Luo Lie vaguely remembered what happened before getting in the car. He didn't know why A Biao forced An Zhai to agree to the condition of exchanging his life for life, and he didn't know how A Biao had already treated An Zhai at this time. Therefore, when he shouted twice and did not get An Zhai's response, Luo Lie suddenly panicked. He struggled to get up from the bed, but was pressed by a soft hand.

"Oh, God, you finally woke up. No, no, you can't get up, you must be bedridden." Celinena not only smiled kindly, but her voice was soft and beautiful. She just spoke English, and Luo Lie didn't understand it very well.

"An Zhai, my friend, have you seen him?" In desperation, Luo Lie mixed half of English and half of Chinese into a question.

But Celinena obviously didn't understand: "Oh? Your friend? Is it Dong? To be honest, he looks so fierce that I dare not look at him directly. Oh, dear Luo, it's time for you to take medicine."

If he couldn't understand the language, it would be useless to communicate. Luo Lie took advantage of the opportunity of Celina turning around to get medicine and wanted to turn over and get out of bed and go out to find An Zhai's whereabouts. But he forgot that there was a squirt on his arm. The squirt was accompanied by an infusion bottle and an infusion stand. As a result, it made a mess. Celina turned around in panic and exclaimed: "Oh, my God, what are you doing?"

The mess behind him and Celinena's exclamation failed to stop Luo Lie from walking. He staggered to the door and stretched out his hand to open the door of the room. The disease came like a mountain, and the disease went like a thread. Although Luo Lie had already subsided, his body was very weak. After opening the door of the room, he no longer had the strength to take another step. His legs became weak and he collapsed at the door.

Celinena first helped the infusion rack up. Fortunately, the infusion bottle offset a lot of falling forces on the bed. The impact force it received when it fell to the ground was not enough to make the infusion bottle burst. After holding up the infusion rack, she saw Luo Lie slumping on the ground. She hurriedly subconsciously drew a cross in front of her chest, and then quickly came to the door to help Luo Lie up. "God, forgive him, he is still a child."

Luo Lie, who collapsed on the ground, knew that he was unable to find An Zhai even if no one stopped him, so he had to return to the bed obediently with the help of Celine. After feeding the medicine, Celinea put a re-drilling needle on Luo Lie, then took a thermometer and inserted it into Luo Lie's armpit. She sat on the edge of the bed, stroked Luo Lie's forehead, and showed a motherly smile on her face. "Anthony said, you are infected with Plasmodium falciparum, which is the most dangerous disease. God bless you, you finally woke up and your fever subsided, but you must be obedient and rest well, and you are not allowed to be naughty, do you understand?"

The mothers in the world are different, but the motherly love in the world is the same. Celena's words are still in English, and they are accompanied by medical words, which seems more complicated. But Luo Lie seems to understand it. His originally dull but sharp eyes gradually softened, and he murmured: "I just want to find my friend."

Celinena gently patted Luo Lie's cheek and said softly: "Sleep, my child, everything will be fine."

Luo Lie stopped murmuring, slowly closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Celinea gently took out the thermometer from Luo Lie's armpit and carefully read the degree. A bright smile immediately emerged from her face: "Lord, thank you, thank you for saving this child." Celinea recorded the measurement time and the number of body temperatures read in the nursing record. 37 degrees 2, which is already within the normal temperature range.

The reason why Plasmodium falciparum infection is that when it first occurs, the body temperature often rises to more than 40 degrees. Once the body temperature exceeds forty degrees, it is easy to cause complications such as dehydration, water and electricity disorders, and multiple organ failure. If the body temperature cannot be lowered in time, any complication may cause the patient to die. As the only anti-malarial parasite special drug, quinine is not very sensitive to Plasmodium falciparum. In addition, when Plasmodium falciparum is infected, the duration of high fever is many times longer than other types of malaria. Therefore, once you are infected with this type of malaria, even if treatment is timely, the mortality rate is quite high.

When Luo Lie was just carried out of the car, another colleague of Celena took his body temperature for the first time. At that time, the nurse reported a degree of 41 degrees and 5. This temperature was already a fatal temperature for adults. Celena later looked at the thermometer, but found that her little colleague did not read the degree accurately, and the accurate degree was 41 degrees and 6.

You can't underestimate the difference between zero points and one degree. On this body temperature, if you have one degree extra, you may lose three points of chance of survival. Thanks to Celinea, when Luo Lie was in a coma, she wiped Luo Lie's neck, armpits, popliteal fossa, groin and other parts that were easy to dissipate heat with warm water, and always fanned Luo Lie without any effort. The effective physical cooling and the effect of medicine finally pulled Luo Lie back from the brink of death.

Of course, An Zhai also made an indelible contribution. If he hadn't thought of a solution in time and fed him some lake water when Luo Lie could still get in, delaying the time when Luo Lie was dehydrated or even water-electricity balance caused by high fever, I'm afraid that no matter how careful Celena cares for her, she would not have saved Luo Lie's life.

Silina sat at the head of the bed, looking at Luo Lie sleeping with a smile, and hummed a nursery rhyme in a low voice. This nursery rhyme is Celina's favorite song. When her daughter was young, she basically fell asleep peacefully every night by listening to the nursery rhyme sing by Celina. Celina's daughter is about the same size as Luo Lie, and now she has grown into a graceful girl. Influenced by Celina, her daughter has liked to sing and dance since she was a child, and Kingsoft is just an industrial city. She cannot find a school suitable for cultivating her daughter's interests. Therefore, Celina was willing to suffer from the separation of her mother and daughter and sent her daughter to New York, thousands of miles away.

If there were no Chinese laborers, the railway from Kingsoft to New York would not be established. Without the railway, it would be possible to take a car for more than two thousand miles and transfer to the middle. For a mother, she would never be assured that her daughter would go back and forth alone. Then she would not be able to see her daughter during the winter and summer vacations.

Because of this, Celena is full of gratitude to the Chinese.

At noon the next day, Luo Lie had another attack. But this attack was first caused by the effect of medicine and second, with Selina's careful care, so it was not as dangerous as the last time. Luo Lie's body temperature rose to a little more than 39 degrees. During the interval after the attack, Luo Lie felt much better than the previous day.

Anthony said happily: "Oh, I can't believe that God not only came to this child, but also held his hand himself. Miracle, it's simply a miracle!"

When she was awake, Celinena kept communicating with Luo Lie in English. When she was studying in the Chinese and Western School, Luo Lie learned some English foundation, but her vocabulary was not enough and she lacked listening and speaking practice. But with Celinena's encouragement, Luo Lie boldly expressed her thoughts in English. Although the time was short, her English level had improved rapidly.

"Thank you, Anthony, thank you, Celena." Luo Lie lay on the bed. Although he was very tired, he still politely thanked Anthony and Celena in English, and waved his hands to them respectively.

Anthony was amused and shook his head and smiled, "Look, how good he speaks English, no, I have to ask Brother Bin to pay more, not only to pay medical expenses, but also to pay Celena's English teaching fee."

Dong Biao, leaning on the door frame, fiddled with a cigarette in his hand and continued in time: "Okay, Brother Bin is upstairs, let's go find him to have two more cups?" When Dong Biao said that he had two more cups, he repeated it in Mandarin.

Anthony waved his hands repeatedly and said, "No, no, I will never be fooled by you again. Damn Dong, do you know how uncomfortable it feels to be dizzy?"

Dong Biao smiled faintly and replied with two words simply: "Of course, often."

Anthony shook his head and said, "I really don't understand you Chinese. Drinking was originally intended to relax or serve as a meal, but you Chinese used wine as a weapon of battle. Kill your friends and themselves. Dong, is this worth it?"

This time, Dong Biao's answer was even simpler: "Of course!"

Anthony sighed: "The ancient and mysterious East, the hardworking and brave Chinese, attracts me all the time. Dong told Brother Bin that I can not charge his medical fees in the future, but he must promise me that when I am still alive, I will take me to the East and see her mystery with my own eyes." Anthony said while packing his medical box. After saying that, the medical box was also packed up. He picked up the medical box and Anthony walked out the door.

Dong Biao let go, made a gesture of invitation, and said, "Actually, I really want to go back and have a look."

He personally sent Anthony to the car, but Dong Biao did not rush back, but patrolled along the lattice wall. This was Dong Biao's daily work. No matter it was windy or rainy, he would inspect at least three times in a day. The defense of Anliangtang was loose on the outside and tight on the inside. When he saw the yard, there was not even a patrol team, and the only one who was looking at the gate was an elderly man. However, the huge courtyard was covered with hidden whistles. Dong Biao's patrol was to check whether these hidden whistles were lazy.

When inspecting the gate, Dong Biao suddenly saw a short and thick figure flashing past outside the gate. Dong Biao's eyes were sharp, and then he recognized that the figure was Luo Lie's friend. Luo Lie's condition was in a period of rapid recovery, and Dong Biao's annoyance yesterday disappeared. Seeing An Zhai's figure, Dong Biao suddenly felt that he had done something yesterday.

"Stop! Why are you here?"

Hearing Dong Biao's shout, An Zhai couldn't help but tremble and stopped, "I, I just want to see how Luo Lie is doing."

Dong Biao said coldly: "I hired the best doctor and the best nurse in Kingsoft for him. What do you think he can do?"

An Zhai couldn't react for a moment, and blinked his eyes before savoring Dong Biao's words. His face suddenly looked happy and said, "His illness cured? Has he survived?"

Dong Biao said: "Although the disease has not been cured yet, it will definitely not be able to die."

An Zhai sighed and murmured: "That's good, that's good."

At first, Dong Biao was quite disgusted with this little fat man and had no opinion. He was just a follower of Luo Lie. He looked at him and would have the urge to kick him. However, An Zhai's righteousness towards Luo Lie made Dong Biao feel a little moved. He couldn't help but ask himself, whether Dong Biao could do it like the fat man in front of him. Of course, he could, and he had to be more righteous than the fat man.

By accidental comparison, Dong Biao subconsciously equated himself with An Zhai, and his attitude towards An Zhai changed subtly. The original boredom disappeared, and he had more recognition or even appreciation.

"Do you want to go and see Luo Lie?"

An Zhai Chong focused his head, and tears actually appeared in his small eyes.

"It's OK to see him, but after seeing it, you have to fulfill your promise!"

An Zhai wiped the corners of his eyes and nodded again.

Luo Lie had just had a second attack and was exhausted. After Dong Biao sent Doctor Anthony out, he fell asleep in a daze. An Zhai tiptoed into the room, stood at the head of the bed, stretched out his hand to try if Luo Lie's forehead was as hot as yesterday, but he was worried that Luo Lie would wake up. A fat white hand hesitated in the air for a moment, but finally shrank back.

"He has a round face and breathes evenly, so he just fell asleep. He wasn't in a coma. You can rest assured, right?" Dong Biao leaned against the door frame and unconsciously took out another cigarette and sniffed it under his nose.

An Zhai turned around, walked towards Dong Biao, and whispered: "Let's go out and talk, don't wake Luo Lie up."

After leaving the door, she was far away from Luo Lie's room. An Zhai stopped and looked at Dong Biao with unpleasant eyes, saying, "Uncle A Biao, you can do it."

An Zhai's attitude of looking at death made Dong Biao almost unable to help laughing. He quickly turned his head and pretended to cough, but after coughing twice, he still laughed out loud.

"Uncle Abiao, why are you laughing at?"

Since I couldn't help it, I just laughed out loud. At this time, Dong Biao not only didn't think An Zhai was annoyed, but felt a little cute. "Luo Lie's condition has only improved. It's not too late to save your life first. When Luo Lie is completely cured, it's not too late to hand it over to me. Well, you won't have to cheat outside these days, so you'll live in Anliangtang." After a little pause, I felt that it was really unbearable to just tease the fat man like this, so I added: "During Luo Lie's recovery, you can see him at any time, but it can't last more than ten minutes each time. He needs to have enough rest. Do you understand?"

An Zhai was overjoyed and bowed deeply at Dong Biao: "Thank you, Uncle Abiao."

Luo Lie's condition was already very weak when the third attack, and his body temperature rose to 38 degrees and 5 degrees. After the temperature dropped, his body was not as tired as before, so he lay on the bed and talked and practiced English with Celena. At this time, An Zhai pushed open the door and stuck half of his head in.

"An Zhai?" Luo Lie exclaimed and waved to An Zhai quickly, "Come in!"

Hearing Luo Lie's summons and seeing Celena nodded, An Zhai entered the house, carefully closed the door, ran to Luo Lie's bedside, and giggled, "Luo Lie, your illness is all cured?"

Luo Lie nodded and replied, "Well, it's almost done, An Zhai, thank you!"

An Zhai smiled with relief, scratched the back of his head, feeling a little embarrassed, and said, "It's all my fault that I'm incompetent, otherwise I wouldn't have let you come here again."

Luo Lie immediately remembered the conditions that A Biao asked An Zhai to exchange his life for life as he heard before he was unconscious, and asked quickly: "An Zhai, isn't that A Biao difficult for you, right?"

When talking about A Biao, An Zhai suddenly had a fierce face. Dong Biao looked fierce and was not smiling on weekdays. In An Liang Hall, what An Zhai was most afraid of was Dong Biao. When he saw Dong Biao's figure from afar or heard Dong Biao's voice, An Zhai couldn't help feeling weak with his legs, let alone being able to tell that the so-called exchanging life for life was just a joke that Dong Biao was idle.

"No, Luo Lie, he is very nice to me."

Luo Lie obviously refused to believe it. In the past two days, Luo Lie would think about it when he had a little free time. Brother Bin was willing to take in the two of them because Brother Bin felt that they were very similar to Brother Bin's then. Luo Lie not only heard what Cao Bin said to A Biao at the door of the Customs Police Station, Luo Lie not only heard it, but also heard it very clearly. The reason for the breakup later was that they were unwilling to cut their braids. Later, he was seriously ill and A Biao arrived in time. Luo Lie did not believe it was a coincidence, so it only means that Brother Bin still wanted to accept him. He just wanted to accept him, but he did not want to accept An Zhai, so A Biao forced An Zhai to agree to the condition of exchanging his life for life.

An Zhai was really stupid and actually agreed to A Biao.

Intuition, Luo Lie did not think that Cao Bin was a good person. This can be verified from the transaction relationship between him and the Superintendent named Nelson in the Customs Police Station. Therefore, Luo Lie did not want to stay at all. He would rather wander on the streets with An Zhai than follow a bad person to accomplice the tiger. "An Zhai, let's escape?" The only way Luo Lie could think of was to escape, escape far away, so that Cao Bin could no longer catch him, and at the same time, he could also get rid of the constraints of the promise of exchanging life for life.

An Zhai subconsciously covered Luo Lie's mouth and at the same time rushed towards Celena. Luo Lie broke open An Zhai's hand and said, "Don't be afraid, she can't understand Mandarin."

After a brief nervousness, An Zhai carefully considered Luo Lie’s proposal, saying that it was a consideration, but it was just a pretending. "Well, Luo Lie, when you recover from your illness, we will escape."

Luo Lie sighed lightly and said, "Do you think we will have a chance when I recover from the disease? If you want to escape, just tonight."

An Zhai took a deep breath. This time, he was really thinking seriously.

In the evening, the weather turned cloudy, and after dark, it started to rain.

The rain continued until late at night, but there was no sign of rest.

Celinea took Luo Lie's body temperature again, only thirty-six degrees and eight degrees, which was completely normal, so she lay down on the chaise long and slept peacefully. Luo Lie, who was pretending to be asleep, heard Celinea's even breathing sound, and judged that Celinea had fallen asleep, so she got out of bed quietly and tiptoed to the door of the room. Just as she reached out to unscrew the door handle, she suddenly heard Celinea's voice ringing behind her back.

"Nuoli, if you want to leave, you have to bring the medicine with you!" Celinena couldn't learn the correct pronunciation of Luo Lie, so she simply gave Luo Lie an English name called Nuoli.

Luo Lie was shocked and turned around, frowned and asked, "Celina, aren't you sleeping?"

Celinena turned on the wall light. In the soft light, Celinena's smile seemed even more gentle. "I heard what you said to the fat man, but I didn't understand it very much, but you can guess from your expressions, Nuoli, you don't want to live a life of being under someone else's roof. Celinena understands you and will not stop you. But before you go out, can you bring the medicine I prepared for you and promise Celinena that you will take it on time?"

Luo Lie smiled, walked over and hugged Celena, took the medicine bag from Celena, and said, "Cialina, thank you."
To be continued...
