I Raised A Sick And Weak Prince
Chapter 13
Several messages kept popping up on the interface.
"Hello player, congratulations on unlocking the protagonist's first serious illness!"
"Your protagonist's current condition is very bad!
Health bar 30%, stamina bar 0%!
He can't even get out of bed!
It's because he didn't get any rest for the past three days after catching the cold, causing him to be unconscious and weak! "
"Attention – Prince Ning Fu has a few servants who happened to be infected with the plague and have been dismissed back to the countryside!
If you don't handle it properly, it's very likely that your protagonist will also be infected with the plague in a weak state! "
"Currently, your protagonist is still in a safe state!
But once the health bar drops to 5%, he will automatically enter a terminal illness state!
At that time, there will be no turning back! "
"By the way, do you want to know about the mortality rate of ancient colds and plagues?"
"Yes, no."
The words "no turning back" that popped up from the trash game blinded Su Xi's eyes. She was already very worried, but after being messed up by the trash game, she became even more nervous. Her heart was pounding, and she was afraid that the child she had raised for so many days would die in the next second!
Who didn't know that the medical treatment in ancient times was not advanced, and people could easily die from a cold!
She quickly swiped the "Yes" option and rummaged around the room like a headless fly, but obviously, there couldn't be any medicine in the room.
She zoomed in on the room's interface, then reached out and poked the little ball on the bed.
The unconscious Zaizai's face was pale, and he was unconscious. He was soft and motionless.
Su Xi's finger poked his quilt, but she didn't know where she poked. It might have been his waist. He groaned in pain, his eyes closed tightly, and his brows furrowed.
Zooming in, there was a faint pitiful light hanging on his dark eyelashes. He was confused by the fever.
The health bar in the upper left corner was like an hourglass, constantly decreasing evenly. In just a short while, it had already dropped to 28% –!
Su Xi looked up and was shocked. She quickly forced herself to calm down and think about what to do.
She first picked up the quilt on the ground, swiped along the screen, and covered Zaizai on the bed.
However, Lu Huan's whole body was burning up, as if he was in a furnace. When he was suddenly covered with the quilt, he felt even more burning, so he closed his eyes tightly, frowned in pain, and turned over …
A white bubble appeared on top of his head. "Hot."
Just as Su Xi was about to switch the screen to the kitchen, he saw Zaizai kicking the blanket off the bed.
She had no choice but to turn the screen back. She pinched the small blanket with two fingers and covered it again. This time, she even used her fingers to tuck in the four corners.
Lu Huan was in a deep sleep. She felt something pressing down on her body, and her breathing became hotter and hotter. She furrowed her brows and wanted to kick the blanket away.
What Su Xi saw was the little cub desperately kicking the blanket.
A faint bubble slowly emerged from the top of his head. "No."
"…" How could the delicate little prince act like this?!
Su Xi looked up and saw that her HP bar had dropped to 25%. Her heart jumped to her throat. She couldn't care less about fighting with the mini game anymore. She picked up the two chairs and two bricks in the room and pressed them against the four corners of the blanket.
In this way, the weak Zaizai raised his hands and legs, but he couldn't lift the blanket no matter how hard he tried.
Su Xi had never taken care of a sick person before. She quickly opened Baidu and searched "What to do when a child has a fever of 39.9 degrees?". After returning from Baidu, she picked up two pieces of cloth and switched to the courtyard.
She took two pieces of snow in the courtyard and wrapped them in cloth. She switched back to the house and stuck the self-made antipyretic patch on Zaizai's forehead.
The bone-chilling snow came in handy. The mini game's eyelashes trembled slightly, as if the burning sensation of the fever had eased. His brows relaxed a little.
Su Xi squeezed a few balls of soft snow from the outside and stuffed them into the mini game's palm.
What she did was effective. The HP bar in the upper left corner increased by 1%.
It was far from enough.
He was so sick that he definitely needed a doctor.
Su Xi subconsciously opened the map and wanted to switch the interface to the market outside Prince Ning Fu. However, she couldn't switch at all. Only then did she remember that she only had 11 points and couldn't unlock the market. How could she get a doctor?!
The System said, "Currently unable to unlock the market, unable to unlock the doctor. If you want to unlock the next section, you need to accumulate 15 points."
F * ck, that's too strict!
Su Xi took a deep breath and opened the shop interface. She quickly opened the 'medicine' section.
Fortunately, the shop had everything.
In ancient times, the medicine used to treat colds were all bags of herbs. There was even a jar for decocting the medicine. However …
Su Xi couldn't bear to look at it. "This bag of medicine will take at least an hour to decoct. Can he hold on?!
Don't you have white and black or vitamin C tablets? "
The System said, "How could there be such things in ancient times?!"
Su Xi didn't have time to complain. He quickly bought the medicine and paid the bill. Then, he rushed to the kitchen and quickly bought some money to burn the firewood. Then, he quickly poured the herbs into the jar. His fingers were nimble and smooth!
In the meantime, she kept switching back and changing the cloth to help Zaizai reduce his fever.
However, the time it took for the medicine to be done was faster than she thought. She rummaged through the kitchen and found a bowl and spoon. Then, she scooped a big bowl of sticky black medicine.
Even through the screen, the bitter taste of the decoction could be felt.
Su Xi was most afraid of drinking medicine. She couldn't help but frown.
However, the next most difficult task was how to pour the medicine into the mouth of the unconscious Zaizai.
Su Xi had just entered the house with the medicine bowl when the System beeped that her life bar was only left with 15%!
She was so nervous that she broke out in a sweat. She quickly grabbed the upper body of the game character on the bed with one hand and lifted Zaizai up.
Lu Huan, who had lost consciousness, was speechless.
However, Zaizai's face was weak. His lips were pale and he was swaying left and right. Because Su Xi was too rough, he almost fell off the bed.
Su Xi quickly formed an arc with her left hand and pressed it against the screen. She let the game character lean against her palm. With this, the game character was finally supported to sit up.
His long black hair poured down. His head leaned weakly against Su Xi's fingertips. He was pitifully small. His waist was also small.
Su Xi breathed a sigh of relief and put the bowl on the table.
She held the spoon with her other hand and scooped up the medicine. Then, she carefully brought it to Zaizai's mouth.
Although it was a little difficult to pry open Zaizai's mouth, Su Xi still poured the medicine into his mouth with great effort.
The bowl of bitter medicine was finished just like that. Zaizai's pale face became even paler.
Su Xi, who was outside the screen, was also exhausted.
Her shoulders were sore and her neck hurt. She let go of her hand and accidentally Zaizai fell back onto the bed.
His head hit the hard pillow and made a soft sound.
Su Xi's heart instantly ached. … Ahhh, I didn't do it on purpose!
However, after such a torment, the medicine seemed to have taken effect. The life bar in the upper left corner that had almost fallen to 8% gradually showed signs of rising again …
Su Xi picked up the cloth again and changed it again. Then, she continued to stick it on Zaizai's forehead and palm.
The interface popped up. "Congratulations, your protagonist has returned to a safe state!"
Su Xi saw that the life bar had finally increased back to 35%. She heaved a sigh of relief and felt relieved.
She had to admit that playing this game was really tiring. However, when she saw that Zaizai's breathing had finally evened out a little and his eyebrows had finally relaxed a little. He didn't seem to be in so much pain and his complexion was slightly better, it gave Su Xi a great sense of accomplishment and satisfaction.
Anyone who personally raised a cute little creature and accompanied it day by day and watched it grow would also have some feelings for this Zaizai in the game.
Although Zaizai wasn't a living person, she still hoped that he would be better. She hoped that he would be healthy and not be bullied again.
Su Xi bought a few more bags of medicine from the shop and placed them on the bedside. When Zaizai woke up on his own, he could boil the medicine and drink it himself.
At this moment, Su Xi suddenly caught a glimpse of Zaizai's arm under his long sleeve …
When she opened the game on the first day, she found that the little game character's arm seemed to be injured. However, she couldn't zoom in at that time and didn't take a closer look.
At this moment, she zoomed in and carefully lifted the blanket to pull out Zaizai's arm.
When she rolled up his sleeve, she found that … there were countless whip marks on his arm!
They were old injuries and only left shallow marks on his fair skin. However, she could still imagine the scene of his skin being torn open and the pain as if salt had been sprinkled on it!
Su Xi took a deep breath and hesitated whether she should look at Zaizai's body again.
Anyway, Zaizai's clothes should be soaked in sweat. He had to change into a new one.
After thinking for a moment, she gently lifted the blanket and carefully unbuttoned Zaizai's robe.
Following her movements, the little game character frowned in pain. His long hair fell on his shoulders like a waterfall.
Sure enough, as she expected, Zaizai's back was full of whip marks!
It was messy and shocking.
How could this be … Su Xi was a little angry and a little sad in her heart.
She knew that this was a game. She knew that he was just a bastard who was bullied all year round. However, she couldn't help but feel pain in her heart.
This time, she wasn't clumsy. She directly helped Zaizai up and bought some scar removal ointment from the store. She applied it on the whip marks on the little game character's body.
Fortunately, these scars were all left when he was young. As he grew up, Prince Ning Fu's people probably didn't have the chance to bully him anymore.
After applying the ointment, Su Xi changed his robe. As for his pants, she felt that it was too troublesome and didn't change them.
Moreover, she felt that the little game character's reaction was too realistic. She didn't know how he would react when she took off his pants later.
The robe had to be changed because it was soaked. If she didn't change into a clean one, it wouldn't be good if his cold got worse.
After doing all this, Su Xi finally let out a sigh of relief. She rubbed her eyes and fell asleep with her phone on her face.
This night was especially long for Lu Huan. His whole body was heavy and exhausted. His whole body was soaked in scalding hot water, bobbing up and down. It wasn't until his forehead and palms seemed to be stuck with something cold that the pain was slightly relieved.
He desperately tried to wake up, but because his cold was too serious, he couldn't open his eyelids.
It wasn't until the next day when the rooster in the courtyard crowed that he suddenly woke up from his dream.
After opening his eyes, Lu Huan still felt that his whole body was heavy.
He opened his eyes and stared at the curtain for a moment. He subconsciously reached out to touch his forehead to see if it was still hot.
But at this moment, when he raised his hand, he realized that the blanket on his body was extremely heavy, as if it was being pressed down by something …
Along with his movement, the chair that was pressed under the quilt rolled to the ground, making a "bang" sound.
Lu Huan raised his head slightly. His heart skipped a beat and his expression changed.
The clothes he was wearing had been changed!
