Chapter 24: Chestnuts’ Temptation
Meng Ze inhaled in pain after talking.
Su Tang was aware of his kind intentions. She hurriedly interrupted, “Don’t talk so much. Since there isn’t any anesthetic here, your wounds will hurt a lot!”
Meng Ze shook his head and looked like he had more to say.
Since he did not continue, Su Tang turned a blind eye.
The water in the earthenware jar had started boiling, so she rolled up a large leaf into a cone and cautiously filled it with water to cool.
After a long silence, Meng Ze finally asked, “Healer, I am badly injured. Am I going to die?”
Su Tang did not know whether to cry or to laugh.
“Of course not. You just need to rest and get some nourishment. Then you will recover in no time!”
Meng Ze’s eyes glinted. He pursed his dry cracking lips. “Thank you!”
Su Tang smiled quietly.
After the water cooled down a little, she released the funnel a little and let the water flow into Meng Ze’s mouth.
“When Yuanyuan comes back, she can give you water by using a funnel. Since you have a fever, you need to replenish your fluids!”
“Got it!”
Su Tang examined the leaf in her hand curiously. It resembled a banana leaf but was a lot stronger!
It did not show any signs of turning soft even with the hot water inside, so it was pretty useful!
[BEEP! Information about item retrieved. Do you want to utilize one point to find out?]
Su Tang glared angrily!
She decisively picked “no”!
She gave Meng Ze more water before Cain came back after washing the goldenrod.
Su Tang took some of the stems and leaves and placed them in the earthenware jar before telling Cain to watch the fire.
She broke the unused goldenrod into small sections.
Then she took the large leaves in the cave and lay them outside under the sun before placing the sections of goldenrod on the ground to dry them for storage!
After she was done, the sweet scent of the goldenrod made Su Tang a little hungry.
She retrieved five or six chestnuts and went up to Cain and chuckled before throwing them into the fire.
“Cain, are you hungry! Let me make you some chestnuts.”
Cain replied candidly, “No, I’m good!”
Since Su Tang would get to eat delicious chestnuts very soon, she was in a good mood and did not get upset with Cain!
“Then don’t take a single one when I am done roasting them!”
“Okay!”
Su Tang sneered unhappily.
The tiger was so serious!
Su Tang stopped Cain from adding firewood after most of the water in the earthenware jar had boiled away!
Su Tang put out the fire and waited for the jar to cool before telling Cain to give Meng Ze the medicine using a funnel-like instrument she created.
After Cain removed the earthenware jar, she eagerly retrieved two skinnier branches from the fire.
Su Tang dug out the chestnuts from the fire using the branches and left them to cool.
She picked up a rock in the cave and used it to hit a chestnut, now black from roasting, and smashed it!
The chestnut shell split open crisply!
Su Tang could not be bothered by the heat with the faint scent of the chestnut wafting in the air. The moment she peeled it open, hot vapor escaped from the chestnut.
Its yellow flesh appeared even more delectable in contrast to its dark shell!
She blew it a couple of times before placing it into her mouth.
In an instant, Su Tang narrowed her eyes and beamed in satisfaction. She looked so adorable that Cain stared fixedly at her.
Since the chestnut was well-cooked, its texture was soft and buttery and smelled fragrant!
