"Zhao, it's bad, Xin suddenly has a high fever and is talking nonsense. You should go take a look."

In the middle of the night, it was drizzling outside.

Cao Lei suddenly burst into Zhao Tienan's room, looking extremely anxious.

"High fever?"

Zhao Tienan quickly jumped down from the heated brick bed, wearing only a pair of shorts.

But he couldn't worry about that now; from Cao Lei's expression, Xie Xin's condition seemed very urgent.

"Hiss, so hot."

Zhao Tienan rushed over, gently touched Xie Xin's forehead, and his face immediately turned extremely serious.

"Yes, I just measured her temperature, and it's already forty-one degrees."

"Zhao, think of something quickly."

Cao Lei was so anxious that she was about to cry. This was her best friend, and if anything happened, she wouldn't be able to bear such a blow.

"Don't panic; let me check her pulse."

Zhao Tienan placed a few fingers on Xie Xin's wrist, but his brow furrowed more and more.

Judging by the pulse, this didn't seem like a severe cold.

However, reaching this temperature is very rare and equally dangerous.

"Hmm, I'm, I'm so cold, hold, hold me, I want to..."

Suddenly, a charming and suggestive voice came from Xie Xin's throat, while her beautiful and alluring face was filled with a strong sense of lust.

This woman is truly exceptional; even in a feverish confusion, she's thinking about such sultry things.

Truly, birds of a feather flock together.

Like Cao Lei, deep in her heart lies a flirtatious vixen.

"What's going on, Zhao? What's wrong with Xin?"

Cao Lei pressed her rosy, seductive lips together and asked urgently.

"This pulse is really not promising!"

The next second, Zhao Tienan lifted the quilt and pulled off Xie Xin's light blue strap nightgown.

Soon, he found a small black spot on Xie Xin's left chest.

The delicate skin around the small black spot was already red and swollen, clearly inflamed.

"What, what is this?"

Cao Lei covered her mouth and asked in shock.

"A tick, your best friend is really having bad luck lately, getting bitten!"

Zhao Tienan smacked his lips, looking serious as he spoke.

Ticks are common in mountainous areas and are a type of blood-sucking insect.

This insect has a one in a hundred thousand chance of carrying a lethal toxin that can cause forest encephalitis. If not treated in time, the mortality rate is quite high.

People living in the village get vaccinated every year, but Xin just arrived and has no antibodies, so she couldn't withstand the bite.

Zhao Tienan also suspected that Xie Xin must be having a stroke of bad luck lately.

Encountering such a low probability, she should indeed find a place to pray for good fortune.

"Zhao, what, what should we do then?"

Cao Lei had never seen Zhao Tienan with such a serious expression before and was so scared that her pretty face turned pale.

"Don't worry, I'll write you a prescription. You go to the health station to get the medicine and decoct it, while I help draw out some of the toxins."

Zhao Tienan pondered for a moment, then immediately told Cao Lei.

With the situation being urgent, they had to split up and act.

However, it was his first time treating forest encephalitis, and Zhao Tienan couldn't guarantee he could save Xie Xin's life.
