Chapter 3 Healing
  Shen Jia naturally saw the ferocious smile on Li Hu's face, and the corner of his mouth slightly raised a meaningful smile.

When the people around saw Li Hu and others leaving, they all came over to ask. Shen Jia had no time to pay attention to them. She only smiled and said that she would cure Shen Zhuoyun and Shen Hao. They did not dare to delay Shen Jia and left quickly.

Shen Yun and Shen An also pulled the pale-faced Gu over.

Mrs. Gu leaned against the door, so exhausted that she could hardly stand. She had many questions to ask, but no matter how big the question was, it was not as important as her husband and eldest son, who were now seriously ill in bed.

She barely managed to steady herself, with tears in her eyes, she looked at Shen Jia pleadingly and said in a voice like a mosquito: "Jia'er, go see your father and eldest brother quickly, they, they are dying."

Shen Jia's heart skipped a beat. Malaria was almost an incurable disease in ancient times. Even in modern times, many people died of malaria in some backward areas in Africa.

"Yun'er, An'er, you help mother go back, I'll go see my father and eldest brother." After Shen Jia finished speaking, she ran to Shen Zhuoyun's room based on the memory of the original owner.

Shen Zhuoyun was lying on the bed, breathing weakly, looking pale, shivering all the time, and his lips and nails were cyanotic, which were really symptoms of malaria.

Lingnan has a humid and hot climate, and there are many mountainous and forested areas. Mosquitoes are rampant, and malaria is frequently visited with it. With the medical conditions of this era, when most doctors encounter malaria, they can only say: "I tried my best, let fate take its course."

Even in previous lives, malaria was still one of the important threats to human health.

Shen Jia put her fingertips on Shen Zhuoyun's pulse, "The pulse beats slowly. It only beats three times in one breath. It's so cold. This is Xian Chi pulse."

What should I do if I don’t have a silver needle in my hand?
  Shen Jia quickly searched the room for Gu's sewing bag based on the original owner's memory.

She found it quickly, and spent a lot of effort to light the candle, sterilize the needle, and then focus on the Dazhui, Houxi, and Jianshi points. There were no hair needles, so she could only use the smallest embroidery needle to relieve the pain. There is nothing that can be done.

Malaria is caused by the interaction of yin and yang. Dazhui belongs to the Du channel and can channelize yang throughout the body. Therefore, it is used to promote yang and yin. The disease evil lies in Shaoyang. The intervening point is the meridian point of Jueyin in the hand. Jueyin Shaoyang is the surface. Inside, it can dredge the triple burner, allow evil to come out, reconcile the exterior and interior, and regulate the yin and yang qi. Houxi is one of the eight intersection points, leading to the Du meridian, and is the input of the Taiyang of the hand, so it can clear the Taiyang and Du meridian. The meridian Qi is an important point for treating malaria.

Then Shen Jia ran to Shen Hao's room. Shen Hao, like Shen Zhuoyun, also had Xian Chi pulse, and she used the same method to acupuncture him.

The most important modern treatment for malaria is artemisinin, which was developed by a great female academician. Artemisinin is extracted from Artemisia annua.

The stems of Artemisia annua can grow to one to two meters, with many branches and thin leaves. The stems and leaves have a cool smell, which has the effects of clearing away heat and relieving malaria, driving away wind and relieving itching. Artemisia annua can be used not only to treat malaria, but also to treat skin diseases, heat stroke, rheumatism and various inflammations.

Shen Jia ran outside the yard as fast as lightning and found a lot of Artemisia annua on the roadside. There were no pesticides in this era, so these Artemisia annua were safe.

Shen Jia folded a large handful of Artemisia annua and took it back, went straight to the kitchen, washed the leaves, put them in a pot, and started to brew the medicine.

Shen Jia was used to using lighters in her previous life, but now she was a little unaccustomed to using lighters with fire. Fortunately, little Shen Yun saw his sister running around, and must have been preparing to boil medicine, so he quickly came to the kitchen.

"Sister, can dad and eldest brother get better after taking medicine?" Shen Yun asked with a pair of big eyes gleaming in a milky voice.

"Not yet. The most I can do is temporarily control their condition from getting worse. After they drink the medicine, I have to go up the mountain to find medicinal materials. I need to add a few more medicinal materials to the soup, and I will also find some medicinal materials for them to take a medicated bath." Shen Jia He was thinking quickly in his mind, which medicinal materials should be used for a better medicinal bath effect.

The Yunshan Mountains stretch for thousands of miles, and there are many venomous snakes and beasts in them. There must be a lot of natural treasures and precious medicinal materials in the mountains. We must go and see them someday.

"Sister, you are so powerful, I want to learn martial arts from you too." Shen Yun looked at Shen Jia with admiration and said. "Okay, learning martial arts is very tiring and hard! Do you want to learn it too?" Shen Yun had red lips and white teeth, and Shen Jia couldn't help teasing him.

"Yes, I can protect my mother and sister if I learn martial arts." Today, the scene where Li Hu and his five sons forced Gu to take them out of Beili Village was a huge blow to Shen Yun.

He wanted to learn skills and grow up quickly to protect his family so that he wouldn't have to watch his sister face so many bullies by herself like today.

Shen An walked in from the door and happened to hear what Shen Jia and Shen Yun said: "I also want to learn, sister, I am not afraid of hardship. Dad said that we are men and we must protect our mother and sister. Today is my sister's stand. Come out and protect me, and I will protect my sister from now on."

Shen Jia knelt down and hugged Shen Yun, then hugged Shen An, and said with a smile: "Yun'er and An'er are so good, then let's learn martial arts from my sister. As long as we all become stronger, no one can bully us. us."

"it is good."

Mrs. Gu leaned against the wall outside the kitchen, tears streaming down her face. Her husband and eldest son were seriously ill and lying unconscious on the bed. The village bully wanted to drive them away. At that moment, she felt that the sky was falling. , forced to argue with the village bully, but in the end it was her stupid daughter who turned the tide, injured the village bully, and drove them away.

Is it true that as the Taoist priest said, the time is right, the three souls and seven souls have returned, and she is back. She is her daughter!

Mrs. Gu wiped the tears from her face carelessly, straightened her back, turned around and returned to the room.

Shen Jia glanced at Gu's back from the corner of her eyes, the emotion in her eyes was dark and unclear.

After Shen Jia administered the acupuncture, Shen Zhuoyun and Shen Hao's conditions improved a lot, and their bodies stopped trembling.

Shen Jia entered the room with a bowl of medicine and saw Mrs. Gu holding Shen Zhuoyun's hand, lowering her head and saying nothing.

"Mom, this is the medicine I boiled for dad, you feed him to drink." Shen Jia handed the medicine into Gu's hand and helped Shen Zhuoyun up.

Shen Zhuoyun slowly opened his eyes as if he felt something.

"Brother Yun, are you awake?" Gu was so surprised that she almost knocked over the soup she was holding.

Shen Jia caught the bowl quickly with quick eyes and hands, so as not to fall to the ground. Some of the medicine had already spilled out.

"Mom, you feed dad the medicine first, and I'll go give the medicine to the elder brother." Shen Jia stopped being a light bulb, put the bowl in Gu's hand and walked out.

'Yeah' Gu's face turned red, secretly blaming herself for being unsteady.

Shen Zhuoyun could tell at a glance that Shen Jia was different from the past, and he had a lot of questions in his heart, but he didn't ask because he was low on energy now.

When Shen Jia entered Shen Hao's room with the decoction, Shen Hao was already awake.

Shen Hao stared at his sister who was completely different from before. He wanted to say something, but found that he didn't even have the strength to speak.
